enjoyable since Il Is being "put on
for the home folk aud many who have
been in past years too busy 10 see much
of the gayety will this year have time
not only to see but TO join in the fun.
II Is TO be just as real q Carnival AZ
those Of former years conducted on
somewhat different lines and none the
less enjoyable. II ... ~. y,

BAN Friday Evening T.... %
Mayor Joseph >. Fern calls on all
patriotic citizens 10 participate in the
Street Masquerade Ball on the night Of
Washington Birthday. He calls par
ticnlar attention to. the fact that In
these war times the costumes must be
Of the cheapest material and simplest
construction.
In connection with this public dance
en- costume it is reported that there are
to. be sworn in one hundred special
deputies "to make sure that order pre-
vails''. AA to these special deputies
there seems to be more or less mystery.
Just what the occasion for the extra
"reeantions mPv be is not apparent for
in past years Honolulu has required no
suens force to preserve order Mt its
CARNIVAL ball, It may be that no
chances are to be taken with possible
Hun plotters. In any event the Mayor
says the additional force win be suffi,
Client to promote public safety to a
amy aud the opportunities will
add to the feeling of security Of the
participants in the evening frolics.
