HAWAIIAN SONGS
ARE ILLUSTRATED

If the fame of Hawaiian songs has
not travelled around the world, it has
certainly spread over the mainland.
Marc Klaw was recently quoted as
saying that in New York ION the
Beach At Waikiki was the most pop
ular song since the days of ''Alexan-
der's Rag Time Band" With the in
creasing popularity of Hawaiian songs,
the question has often been asked,
why aren't they illusrated?" 1t
would seem no attempt has been made
to do this until M. baker, the local
photographer, realizing the rich pic
torial possibilities, set to work. He
chose as one of his subjects the beauti-
full song, "Ua Like No a Like" one Of
the sweetest of Hawaiian melodies.
'sUa Like No Like" like many OF
the songs of other races. is love
story. A Hawaiian maid sits under a
tree weaving a lea for her sweetheart,
who is shown coming through a trop-
ical forest. Presently she hears foot
step and turns to see him approach
ing. The meeting takes place. The
girl rises and places the lea about her
lover and as the birds fit about in
the branches of the trees he calls her
attention to the birds affection for
its mate and tells her that just as the
bird loves its mate just so is his love
for her Meanwhile she sings "Ua
Like No a Like" sometimes translat-
ed Sweet Constancy," but perhaps
more accurately, "Our affection for
eac bother is mutual, love you just
as you love mel.
Mr. Baker has wisely chosen the
beautiful grounds of Ainahau as a
scene setting-a couple of popular
young Honolulu people take the part
of the prineipals-and the technical
rendering is perfect These pictures
will be exhibited, along with Mr.. Ba-
ker,s other scenes. at the Hawaiian
Opera House Friday and Saturday
evenings of this week. A Hawaiian
sextet will sing the song.

picture is well worth the attention of
parents and children alike. 1t points
more strongly than any sermon to the
error in teaching the young girl or
boy the first rudiments of the card
game.
The heroine, a beautiful girl. is
first seen as she returns home, fresh
and pure and full of the love of life,
from the convent, where her mother
sent her as very young child One
sees her about to enter society. She
is loved by good strong, man. Her
future is before her. Then she is
taught to play cards. 1t was innocent
enough at first, perhaps But the eX.
element was too much for her.
A terrible heritage, unknown to her
self and to her wonderful husband,
slowly grips her. She cannot resist
it, How it lures her, first to the
bridge tables of fashionable society,
then to the races, and finally to the
notorious gambling hell formerly kept
by her own mother-these phases in
her gradual degradation by power
over which she has no control are dis
played graphically. r..

ment departments, was issued as late
as last May. The American flag is
older than the present British Union
Jack, the tricolor of France, and the
flags of Spain, Germany and Italy.
While the Stars and Stripes have been
used since 1777, it was not until Oc-
tober 20, 1912, that definite pecifica-
lions were drawn up. Further speci-
fications were found necessary this
year. According to an executive or
der dated May 20, 1916, the flags of
all government departments, with GER
tain exceptions in the army and navy,
must now conform to these specifica-
tons: Taking the hoist, or width, as 1,
the fly or length is 10, the hoist of
the union, 7-13, the fly of the union,
.76, and the width of each stripe 1-13.
There are twelve prescribed sizes
from 1.31 feet to 20 feet hoist, but the
19-foot flag is to be standard. The
history of our flag indicates that the
army never carried it in battle until
the Mexican War in 1847, though
there is record of its use as a garrison
flag from about 1887 to 1884. Not I'M
til 1884 was the artillery given the
right to carry the Stars and Stripes.
The cavalry did not obtain this per-
mission until 1887. The Continental
Congress adopted the Stars and
Stripes as a national emblem on June
IA, 1777.-Leslie's Weekly.

however, will hardly appeal to Amer

Pongee Popular for Girls

Natural colored pongee, trimmed
with contrasting colors, blues, greens,
and similar shades, is well liked for
the shoe-top suits now so popular with
girls of from six to sixteen. The
blouses worn with these suits are US
ually fashioned of the sheer cottons,
voiles, marquisettes and nets, or of
the tub silks and satins, crepe de
Chine, China silk and pongee. The
light colored lawns, dimities and lin
ems are also popular for girls being
fashioned into simple frocks, MILDLY
dresses and like models. The wide
stripes, so popular for grown-up sport
skirts and suits, are also popular with
the younger generation being fashion
ed into Norfolk suits, modified Rus
sian and MILDLY frocks and similar
loose-lined models, becoming to the
growing girl. The sports styles are
popular, too, smart little coats of silk
and wool jersey in the popular bright
tones being worn over tub dresses of
linen, duck, pique, and the softer cot
tons, voiles, crepes and the like.
In the shoe-top suits also, the Poiret
twills, novelty wool mixtures, shep-
herd checks, gabardines and serges
are equally as popular as the pongees
and Standings.
Net and Taffeta Dresses for After
