The exhibition of paintings by Am

making his home here after a long
residence in Europe, will close on Sat

now been in progress week and has
been pronounced one of the most wor-

The exhibition is open today, tomor-

daily invited. and on Saturday an es-
pecial invitation is extended to school
teachers and school children. Many
of Mr.. Patterson's subjects are OF
much educational value.
Recognizing the merit of his can
vases, several mainland visitors have
made selections for their homes, and
a number of Honolulans have also
purchased, The pastels have attract

think the gay, bright-colored street

boys industrial school at Waialee,
will be brought to Honolulu this week.
The home, which is only temporary,
will accommodate II boys, but as yet
there are no boys awaiting admission.
1t is probable that, when the legisla-

to secure a substantial appropriation
for the erection OF permanent deten-
ton home for boys.

Judge Whitney points out that in
most cities detention home is main
tanned where both boys and girls are
accommodated; that is. there are two
separate institutions under one roof
But the present detention home for
boys, he adds, will suffice until per.
manent arrangements can be made r.
Aside from dependent and friend
less boys the home also will take
care of boys awaiting transportation
