The Election and Its = -. : :.
Effects on Society. .:s 7. ..5a..
In marked comparison with the East
was the campaign of this season and
the elections of this week In Honolulu.
In the eastern cities, including Chi.
cage and Washington, d. c., and also
as far west as California, where 1t Is
considered the duty Of woman to vote,
society matrons and maids have been
busy for the past month campaignihe
for husbands, brothers and fathers,
whichever they may have been. The
women whose husbands were running
for office gave political teas where the
candidates were discussed, and no wo.
man hesitated to rise and speak of
the coed qualities of the man in whom
she was particularly interested. In a
good many OF the cities the women
spoke at large assembly meetings, urg-
ing their eo-workers in suffrage to
vote for the man with the cleanest
record.
So different was the aspect Of some
Honolulu women towards the candi-
dates who we're running for office On
Monday one man came home and
said "I have a holiday tomorrow,
dear" "A holidayl' questioned friend
wife. what for?' my dear, tomor-
row is election day" OF course all of
the women did not display this same
ignorance but none Of them seemed
particularly interested In the lawmak-
ers Of the territory, nor what effect
the influence of these men would have
scn their future welfare i.

A pretty Halloween party was that
given by Miss Marjorie Booth last Sat
urday evening at her home in Pauoa
valley when she entertained about 80
of her young friends at an informal
dance. The lanai was prettily deco.

all evening the guests in weird cos
tunes frolicked through the house.
Music for the dancing was furnished
by a Hawaiian quintet club.
