FROM PEGGY TO POLLY.
Dearest Polly:

Dearest Polly: .".+..
Such a lot to tell You this week!
First there's Myrtle Schuman's en-,
gagement. She announced IL at a
luncheon today and such a surprise as
II was. or course, we did know that
when he was here, Shirwin Carson
was mighty attentive. but we didn't
expect II all TO be so serious. Just
think OF our pretty Myrtle getting mar.
ried and going away for keeps. I'm
afraid that Mr.. Shfrwin Carson won't
be SO popular In Honolulu this time
oh, well, such things do happen.
must tell you, too. you remember
my mentioning Brodie Smith as a
Bean BrummelI member of frater
nifty in II. c., and how unlikely that
seemed. Well, something Of that sort
came out In the PAPER and the boys
got hold OF il ana passed ii in the
frat house. They say Rrodie was an.
cry, bnSI can't imagine the ever aim
lad with anything blt a most PLACID
smile. He's gong 70 he somebody s
model husband yet
Just think, Polly, coming down on
the Wilhelmina there were six honey
moon couples. And each pretended
TO have been marrled-twO years was
the popular time. But curious folks
suspected the secrets when coming
across them in far-off corners all by
themselves. Mr.. and Mrs Frank Crock.
EFT OF Los Angeles kept their secret
longest. On Monday. the night before
the boat landed, they had been mar
ried a week and told the party. Mr..
and Mrs. Billy Gettis couldn't keep
IL at all. They are from Denver and
look as near lie "Christy cover"
as any real people I have ever seen
Honolulu-Land OF the Rainbow, as
Katherine Yates calls it's Honey.
moon Land But that is quite right;
a rosy-tinted land is the place to spend
such rosy-tinted hours as honeymoons
call for.
We are going to b. swamped with
young coliegians this year, too, Quite
exciting, think, an the girls are
already putting on their best face and
manners to greet the strangers. First
the Stanford boys come on the 18th
OF this month to invade fair hearts
and the baseballs regions, end then
one week after they leave. on the S9th
OF June, the popular California team
the champions arrive After that, in
July, the California Glee Club comes
and in the same month about 80 Yale
students will visit the country on their
way 10 the Orient. This will be rather
interesting as there will be number
- .otv In he ~fx kr
sparkle Of ditmond rings on some
fair hands Is almost foregone con.
clusion. There will be many new
faces on the Stanford team that was
here two years ago. The absence OF
Walter Argabrite will be some thing,
of course, though he is here In Ho
nolulu and it will seem funny to him
to play against his own school team
New faces, too, are among the Cali
fornians. as many OF the boys on last
years team are graduated. But enough
about baseball = well have quite
enough OF il when the visitors come,
Invitations are out TO a June party
by Edith Williams. What do you
think, ~Cubist and futurist'' party! j
think It is very original, but then she
could be nothing but original. There
are many quaint things planned and
Abby Buchanan Is going to do dance
IL is being looked forward to as one
Of the biggest things Of the year, and
well it might be.
The congressional party are all back
today from the other islands and.
things in Honolulu are livelier again.
Funny how they have made such {
wave in the social world of this little
city, isn't Ii? A good number Of them
came back on Tuesday morning
among them being Senator and Mrs
Ollie James Mr.. James is q terrifical.
" big man and q young boy told me
the other day that once in Washington
he carried O message to Mrs. James
for his mother He was rather fused
and when asked to sit down took the
nearest chair. It proved to be the
senator's easy chair and very i'm
portant one In which he composes all
his political speeches. Well, he said
that 1t embarrassed him even more
for he was rather sensitive about his
size and declared that six Jacks could
as easily be sitting there as one,
Finally the senator came in. The boy
had never seen him before but i'm,
mediately concluded that the chair
belonged to the statesman. Incidental
". l guess Mr.. James tells as
many stories about himself as do his
friends.
The overman and Maths girls have
been enjoying a wonderful time, visit
ing at the different army posts and
attending the dances on the Maryland.
have heard several things intimateG
which might spell Cupid. Appropri
ate If some OF our proud visiting faith
ers should lose their daughters in Ha-
waiian waters. wouldn't it be? l
wouldn't blame the young officers
though--the girls are wonders and as
sweet and charming as can be.
However. it may be only one of Damq
Rumor's ruses and the fair daughters
will go home care-free with dad. And
now / must go. SO good luck.
