The selling of these gowns has pro-

who watch conditions closely, for this
reason: they were bought from the whole
salers and the small factories that turn
out ready-to-wear clothes. but their price
depends entirely upon the name of the
dressmaker and the rental Of the shop.

HII.O, Hawaii, December s-Fron
Sgt. Nelson w. Raymond, of Troop B,
Fourth Cavalry, stationed at schoReld
Barracks, Honolulu, comes a request
for arrangements 70 be made to have
Hilo's best baseball nine lined up to
meet hh Invasion Of the troopers. Fl.
II may be remembered that in Sep.
TENDER last most of the cavalry boys
were in Hilo on visit to the Volcano
and that while here they made an ex.
cellent reputation for themselves They
were also much taken with the island
as a whole, consequently they are de.
sirous of making another trip across,
or al least the bali players are, hence
this letter. ..
In his communication. Sergeant Ray.
mond asks whether we in Hilo would
be Interested in a series of bali games
in the near future between the cham.
pions Of Hilo and picked team Of
all.stars from the Fourth Cavalry. The
aggregation he is managing Is not, in
a sporting SENSE, bunch OF dubs /"
but, on the contrary, live snappy
team which he is sure would play
HilO's representatives very interest
ing series. ~. t..,.aH G - e.
Further, Sergeant Raymond says
that they are not hguring on making
this money.making proposition but
would like TO have their expenses met.
The proposition has been referred to
President Charlie Green, Of the Hilo
League, and he is warmly in favor Of
having the cavalry boys make the trip
but no guarantee as TO expenses can
be made off.hand.
A reply to Sergeant Raymond in.
quiry is being made, in which the
amount required TO meet expenses is
being asked and IL may be that ar.
rangements win be made TO have the
team brought along. Baseball has
been dead. in Hilo for some time past
but that does not mean that there is
no interest taken in the game. If the
amount requisite to pay the expenses
of the visiting team. which should not
be very high, is obtained by public
subscription the visit will undoubted-
ly be made. ....-. s........
