A GREETING FROM cALLA LILY.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: I have been promising myself each week that I would get d line in the Social Corner, but Wednesday would slip by and nothing written.
 I think we ought to thank the Nor wick Bulletin Co for giving us the Sovial Corner page.
 My first letter appeared in the So- cial Corner paper No. 2. I signed myself then Lover of Pets," as my letter was on that subject. Our Editor should receive vote of thanks for his many kind acts. such as straight ening out our letters mailing cards and letters to be addressed to the Sis ters.

Dear Editor and Writers: come to The Corner with greetings to all and congratulations to the Editor for the success of his achievement. What bet ter compliment can The Corner have than that I have so often heard: that the interest and fascination for this page claim the first attention of all: and all are eager to get the paper first. I have even heard of a number who subscribed for the paper that they might enjoy the Social Corner
 It is with pride we look back and see the amount of helpful hints and useful recipes and cheery chats We have had these four years-enousif material to fill several volumes.
 The social side of The Corner is worthy of mention also: the pleasant exchange of cards and the exceedingly pleasant times on Discovery day, at Coventry lake and at the fair in NoT-

Hello, Central!
 Is this The Bulletin office?
 Well, I want the wire just a moment, please. for the Social Corner people are celebrating their Fourth Anniver- SarS.
 I want to send a message of welcome to everybody present and also a few lines quoted by Dr. Chapman that ought to help those who are under the shadow of affliction: ''Is it raining. little flower?
 Be glad of rain. Too much sun would wither thee;
 Twill shine again. The sky is very black Ntis true, But just behind it shines the blue. Art thou weary, tender heart?
 Be glad of pain; In sorrow sweetest things will grow,
 As flowers in rain. God watches, and thou wilt have the When clouds their perfect work have
 done"

 The Editor. who had been listening very attentively to each number said he had never enjoyed himself so much at any gathering as he had at this one, and he was Hopeful of having many more good times with the same good brothers and sisters.
 After the Editor had finished. Nat jumped up quickly and said he'd had an all-fired good time and he hoped them hogs had behaved themselves, too.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sisters: Being a member of The Corner has been as one sweet day. It is impossi- ble for me to tell whether I was one of the first members or not, for I was with you and took a prize before was Billie. Something like a rein carnation as it were.

Editor and Sisters of the Social Corner: Does it seem possible that we have reached the fourth milestone in the friendly associations of The Cor ner? My mind goes back to the first letter l wrote to the new department called forth by a. letter signed From q Mothers Heart and entitled Children Should Not Be Deceived" Only a few times have we heard from her since but I hope she may be induced to write for the anniversary number. Perhaps she is writing under another name. If so. please give Us 8 clue.

ANOTHER BAND
FOR MILITARY,
MUSICAL OAHU

A band for the LIST Infantry. nation
al guard of Hawaii is the latest pro-
ject TO be taken up by that enterpris-
ing organization. At one time the
members of the FSwaiian band were
enlisted in the militia and could be
counted on for formations, but the
guard fell into a rut, and the band as
a military organization was discon.
tinued. All the instruments, however,
are still in possession of the guard,
and it is believed that a good band
can be recruited without difficulty.
The matter was brought up Monday
night by Colonel Riley, at
a meeting of regimental officers. Col
onel Riley's project met with instant
approval. and the officers are unit
in believing that with the organization
of the regiment. the time has come
for band Of its own. 1t is argued
that with the new armory available,
the various companies will soon be
ready to entertain. in which case
good music will be indispensable.
