Much of his time was taken in going
over the details of the selective draft

Green, that Maui took all prizes in
the matter of speed and accuracy in
the selective draft registrations. The

Miss HarrisOn'S Visit

Miss Alice e. Harrison, the organist
for the Central Union Church, has
won many friends on Maui during her
weeks stay here. Seldom have Maui
people been better pleased with the
efforts of a visiting organist. She
handled the instrument with pre-
cision and touch that showed long and
thorough acquaintance. Her inter
probation of the classical selections
that she played was most pleasing,
and her selection of the numbers
brought out the great variety and
beauty of the new Makawao organ.
The two recitals and her playing on
Sunday were heard by appreciative
who are greatly hoping that
Miss Harrison will visit Maui again
in the near future.
