Dearest Polly:
u Is Thanksgiving Day. If were
asked Just what ! was most grateful
for ! should say the cool weather, for
IL Is truly delightful. Thanksgiving
here is treated Just as it is everywhere
else. Of course the most important
part is the dinner, and all the good
things to go with it. This morning we
have had a big football game so you
see the day has been a full one.
was reading an Oakland paper the
other day and all my romantic dreams
Of Kenneth Ab!es were crushed.
pictured handsome Kenneth in the toys
Of a farmer suprintending the blowing
of his fields and later on the planting
OF great orchards, and | thought that
maybe some time would hear that he
had married a dear little country girl.
But alas. Ny mind pictures were shat
tered, for instead OF going in for farm
Ing Kenneth has gone in for automO-
billing. AS big as life his picture is
published as the assistant manager of
q new automobile company. or course
there is no reason why he should not
marry the little country girl but more
than likely he viii give his heart and
hand to stunning society maid.
| have seen the Atholl McBeans
quite often since their arrival In Ho-
IsIulu. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Mclean are
enthusiastic over surfing and swim
ming at WAIKIKI and most every even
ing the delightful Mrs. Mclean is seen
taking dip in the Pacific. Her big
husband, however, seems to spend
most of his time in swimming and he
is getting quite tanned, and his yell
low hair is fast becoming white from
rays of the tropical sun. Mrs. Mclean
wears charming black bathing suit
Offset by touch of color in her cap,
which Is sometimes Of Persian. design
and sometimes of brighter combina.

Speaking of the beach makes me
think There is a handsome bronzed
Apollo who spends his days surfing or
swimming or browsing in the sand
who has won more than one admiring
glance from Honolulu's pretty girls.
He sits on the diving platform quite
like statue, apparently unconscious
that a very pretty maid Is within
few feet of him. don't know very
much about him myself but do know
that he is not follower of Darling,
nor has be been disappointed in love
as so many have thought - T.
II just seems as though all the gay
affairs come in a bunch. Last week
every one was busy, partly with, the
Outdoor Circle Fete and with the deli
catessen sales. but this week has been
very dull. with the exception of a
ronsing baseball squabble, which
brought disappointment to the hearts
Of several thousand people who had
been looking forward to good game
today. You know we are all baseball
ms over here.
Next week will be the big Elks' car
nival and there are scores of society
matrons and maids working busily for
the success of the Lava Trail" as
they are pleased to call It. / have
been told that IL will be a very elsb-
crate affair and lots of worthwhile
things to see, so like lots of others |
am anticipating it with a great deal of
pleasure.
At the delicatessenE sale at st. An
crews ftr10ry on wednesday there
was a regular whirlwind when the
chimes struck three, which was the
opening hour OF the SALE A hundred
pies were placed for disposal at one
table and in five minutes all the large
ones were gone. At four O'Clock even
the decorations had been sold and
there was nothing to be seen but the
table cloths. Really IT was quite ex-
citing: | have never been in such
scramble in my life.
Mr.. and Mrs. Rudolph F. Baar-I
think told you Of them once before
sailed for the east tn early part of this
week. They spent their honeymoon
here and made ever 30 many friends
In the Islands. One evening when
they were at the PIessanton for
dinner, Mr.. Baar and Mr.. George Butz.
having come from Hoboken, were
talking over the changes that had been
made in the city. when they suddenly
discovered that they we're classmates
