RATH PLEASED WITH
OFFER OF B0ST0NIANS
TO AID NEW FEATURE

i wish to extend my thanks to the
Juvenile Bostonians and the manage
ment of the BostoniaIs for their of.
fer to contribute ten per cent of a
weeks box Office receipts to the recrea-
ton fund.- stated James A. Rath, head
worker of Palama Settlement.
Mr.. Rath learned of the offer of the
Bostonians and Managers Cohen and
Magoon of the Bijou when he returned
from the recreation camp the other
day. "..'" ,."'... 49,. .=......
1T is very splendid Offer" contin-
ued Mr.. Rath, land am sure because
of 1t we will be able to send several
more poor families to the country for
much needed rest
The recreation camp is new in
Honolulu, but people are already begin
ming to realize its Importance. This
is evidenced by the offer of the Boston
ians." v.
1t is to "Muzz" Lang that the credit
for the offer goes largely. When she
read an account several days ago of
the work being done there, she deter.
mined to give share of the receipts
to the recreation fund. and her de-
termination was conveyed to Manager
B. E. Lang, her son, and ]. c. Cohen
of the theater.
I'VE will give them a night her
son stated at once. 49,
Not at ALL interposed Mr.. Cohen,
I'VE will make il a week"
"A week it will be-" heartily endors-
ed Mrs. Lang. .~#.<@ T" F.. ......G ~. J.
This is the history of the offer. 1t
still stands, for beginning the first of
this week, ten per cent of all box Of
fee receipts have been set aside, and
this will also be done for the remain
ing four performances of the week.
The large audiences which have
witnessed the performances so far this
week, indicate that it will be no trivial
sum that the theatre will turn over to
the recreation fund.

SAME OLD STORY

The daring aviator.
Goes miles up in the sky;
Nor does he seem to care a rap,
With others he will vie.
But you will notice, also,
They don't stay long ION deck,
They get reputation.
Then get it in the neck 49,.
They seem to have forgotten,
In their triumphant hour,
About that bunch of smart guys,
That started on tower,
That was to reach to Heaven,
But before twas any height,
They had their CAB knocked silly
And bunco'd over night
They couldn't talk together,
Nor understand their wives,
1--WE might remark. thereafter
They led most peaceful lives. u
It's said it was a judgment
Against their butting in,
On what did not concern them,
Beyond this world of sin.
And If you keep record,

You'll find out sure as cracky,
That law is still in force.

OF those who do offend,
For gen'ally their statement
is what follows up The End.

How Dolls Dresses Are Made

-HERE are establishments entirely
given over TO the manufacture of
clothing for dolls. In such fac
tory the work proceeds pretty much as
does the making of clothes for real peo-
pie. except. of course that the garments
turned out are miniature in size.
The appliances-the work tables. the
sewing machines the cutting knives, etc
in dolls dress factory differ but little
from those in thee other establishments
mentioned.
The materials used are various in KIND
and QUALIFICATIONS. woolens silks. etc
They are cut by knife in the usual WAY
worker will cut from 15a to 20t thick
nesses of thin stuff at a time. The Fe,-
tern is laid on the top layer and on that
its outlines are traced Then The cutter,
with knife running down through the slot
in the cutting table, cuts through all the
thickneSses at once.
The visitor Immediately perceives the
miniature character of the work. On a
stack of piled-up lengths of cloth i'll a
factory where ordinary clothing is made
there might be room to trace on the top
layer the outline of one pattern-for in
stance the side or the back of a coat.
In the dolls clothing factory on 4

dimensions. the worker traces one of the
patterns here used, not once only. but
half dozen times. Everything is On a
