conclusion Of the readings, a group Of
Kawaiahao girls, with ukuleles and
guitars, played and sang some OF the
old fayorites among the native songs.
Punch was then served from a
punch bowl wreathed with glowing hi

spected the various flowers and plants
which had combined to give such
charming Hawaiian setting.
Great credit is due Miss McDougall
for the complete success of the affair

RAGRANT with the sweet bre
OF the wild ginger. gay with
glowing color OF hundreds OF
geous hibiscus flowers, the par
house Of Central Union church was
scene Of q notable and delightful
fair Thursday afternoon, when {
womens society was at home IN no
q or OF the many school teachers vi
1have come this year TO Hawaii
schools. More than 200 women q
sembled at this, the first social affai
of the early autumn, and many VII
had been out OF town for the sun
mer, were back TO greet their oh
friends again and TO make new ones.
Receiving with the president OF tn
society, Mrs. Edwin Benner, was Mis-
Payne, the new principal Of Kawaif
hao seminary, who has come her
from Long Beach where she has bea
connected with the schools for tn
past IL years. Miss Payne is a wil
man OF most charming personality an
her influence over the girls at
seminary cannot fail to be inspirfr
and helpful.
Mrs. Young, chairman Of the socit
committee, and Miss Evelyn McDol
gall, chairman of the committee 70
the day, were also among those greet
ing and introducing the guests, othel
members of the committee later serv'
ing refreshing fruit punch and cookies.
Miss McDougall had entire charge
OF the plans for the day and she eX'
expended much time and thought upon
the affair. From the mountain side
she brought many wild, growing
thfngs-the exquisite blossoms of the
ieie plant, with its beautiful pale sal
mon coloring; clusters OF their foil
age; armsful OF cream-tinted ginger,
\ branches of coffee plant, curly.leaved
koa and branches Of kukui. Used
against a background Of tropical
palms and ferns these fragrant wild
things were most effective and In
te1tsely interesting to the malihini
E visitors whose first glimpse 1t was OF
most of the mountain growth. For
color, Miss McDougall depended upon
Hawaii's queen fower-the hibiscus
its many shades, and tables were
placed about the room covered with
the vivid single blossoms, several hun
dred varieties being shown. Great
- baskets trimming ever with the color
full blossoms, jardiniers of long
Stoned peach blow blooms, and
branches laden with Q wealth Of how'
ers, were massed about the corners
and sides OF the room, while tall pc
destals holding gracefully training
asparagus sprengeri added a cool,
green note that was pleasing.
The reception from three to four,
was followed by a unique program
when, through bits Of original verse,
Miss McDougall led her hearers down
winding trails, and up steep cliffs,
across tumbling brooks, beneath the
spray of many waterfalls, and gave
them refreshing glimpses of some OF
Hawaii's by-paths. The readings were
interspersed by songs led by Mrs. c.
L. Hall, a native daughter, whose
sweet voice always charms those who
listen. Mrs. Hall was assisted by q
group of young Hawaiian girls wear,

provides the strongest vehicle for
Miss Wehlen that she has had since
she began working in motion pictures.
There is action and dash to interest

element that will interest everybody,

Happiness.

The true happiness is of a retired
nature, and an enemy to pomp and
noise; 1t arises, In the first place, from
the enjoyment of ones self; and in the
next, from the friendship and CONVEX
sation of few select companions; 1t
loves shade and solitude, and naturally
haunts groves and fountains, fields and
meadows; In short, it feels everything
1t wants within itself, and receives no
addition from the multitudes of wit
nesses and spectators. On the con-
trary, false happiness loves to be in q
crowd, and to draw the eyes of the
world upon her. She does not receive
satisfaction from the applauses which
she gives herself, but from the admit
ration which she raises in others. She
flourishes in courts and palaces. thea
tiers and assemblies, and has no exist
ence but when she is looked upon

BELMONT RESIGNS
FROM NAVY LEAGUE
Quits as Officer Because of President
Thompson's Row With Secre-
tary Daniels

Perry Belmont Sunday night re-
signed as a vice president and di-
rector of the Navy League. In let
ter to Robert NJ. Thompson, President
of the organization, Mr.. Belmont
said:
"The good accomplished by the
Navy League in the past is beyond
question, but its present efforts are
jeopardized by persistent disagree
ment with the official head of the
Navy in time of war. OF this atti-
tude disapprove, and, therefore, with
regret, tender my resignation as one
of the vice presidents and directors
of the league"
Because of what he denounced as
false and libelous attacks upon him
and upon the service, issued by the
Navy League headquarters, Secretary
Daniels recently announced that there
could be no connection between the
Navy and the league as now managed
and Differed.
Efforts are being made to settle the
differences between Secretary Daniels
and the Navy League. 1t was learn
ed recently that a prominent retired
officer had undertaken to clear up
what he believes to be due to an en-
tire misunderstanding between Col
Robert NJ. Thompson and the Secre-
tary of the Navy.
1t was suggested that the probable
solution of the problem would be a
full meeting of the directors of the
Navy League at which the character
of both Colonel Thompson and the
Secretary of the Navy would be laud-
ed 1t has been suggested that Col.
Thompson might be induced to re-
move himself to a more honorary and
less active connection with the
league and that the complete force
of the leagues paid staff, responsible
for the publicity which caused Mr..
Daniels to bar the league from the
Navy. would be changed.
