College Club Reception
One of the largest and most de-
lightfuI affairs Of the week was the
College Clubs reception for DR. Jas.
NJ Taylor, formerly president of Vas
sar College, held at the Colonial Ho-
tel Tuesday afternoon. The reception
was in the form of a garden party and
the beautiful grounds were in festive
attire for the occasion. Flags were
draped about in profusion, and were
very effective among the palm trees
and, tropical foliage. Hawaiian flags
were very much In evidence. One
enormous emblem of the former king
dom stretched upon standards of CO
coanut leaves graced the entrance;
another decorated the driveway:
while smaller ones were conspicuous
about the grounds. Large, comfort
able wicker chairs were placed about
under the trees and over in one cor
ner under an enormous Japanese para
sol stood the table bearing the punch
bowl 1t was banked in fluffy pepper
foliage thickly interspersed with little
red berries. All of these things, to-
gether with the white and yari-colored
gowns of the women, made a very
brilliant picture against the green
ground. DIR. Taylor. whose home

spreading tree and looked, upon this
scene Of tropical loneliness. The Ka-
waiahao girls sang several Hawaiian
songs very beautifully, finishing with

upon the advantages of a college edu-
cation and urged every girl who could

never regret Il. He spoke of the in
tellectual side of II. and of the won
derful physical training. and "last. hut
not least" he said. There's the fun
OF It." Indeed. his little talk was
very convincing and more than one
high school senior there, wavering be-
tween finishing school and college, de-
cided on the SPOT in favor of the col
lege. After DIR. Taylor's address re-
freshments we're served, consisting of
strawberry sherbet and cake.
