to two Chinese girls on the Hawaiian
Islands. One of them lives in Hon
olulu and the other i'm lhlo. (Hou
pronounce the j in Hilo Ike G.
he-lo.) They arc both teachers now
although when l first started 10 write
one of them only attended high
school, then the Normal school ana
now she's teaching. She caches at
Pahoa.
Their names are rather odd. All
Hung Leong Is the name Of the
younger girl and Susan Chu is the
name of the other girl who is about a
year or two older than Honey Thai
is what we call Oh Hung Leong.
"As you can see they are both well
educated Chinese. Honey" Just wrote
me in her letter before that the other
Chinese people in her town are very
jealous that her father was able TO
educate her and her sister with then
a High School education. Her sister
is going to be a vocational teacher
Honey is a grade eacher. Susan
Chu is a vocational teacher.
Until her graduation day Honey
wore the Chinese Costume. 1t is a
costume which reminds n Of a pair
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-11-21

of pajamas. They are loose like that
and in fact are almost the very same
thing. Now she wears the American
costume. The Chinese in Hawaii
have practically discarded all of their
old Chinese customs and nave adopted
the American ways. There are a few
old customs, though, which they ave
MT discarded. one of the customs Is
the Chinese New Year. A. that time
they celebrate like W. do Il Christ
mas. They have q lot of sweets, nuts,
etc. for their refreshments like We do
at Christmas. They sent me some
candy and nuts that they eat at that
time. They were very good. At least,

thing that made me enjoy them was
that they were rather odd. 1 have
put some candy away and every
once in a while when ] happen to
look at them it makes me think Of
Hawaii, the Chinese girls and their
New Year. I really enjoy hearing
all the different things they write.
You probably remember h time
when Sec. Daniels n his wife Went
to Hawaii. Well, at that time there
was a big celebration in Honolulu and

AMONG US GIRLS
Dear Girls:

Dear Girls;
I met a young lady the other day
and she said to me, what kind of n
girl Is a boys girl? 2" Wei, 1 thought
I'd give you some ideas on that sub
ject. / should say that there are
three classes of girls. First, girls
who like men in a good comrade-like
fashion, but who LAY only one real
true love in their lives. Second, the
girls who are indifferent to men, but
are capable of loving one man when
the fact is brought TO their notice.
girls. l would divide into two parts
The third class of so-called mems
(a) the admirable class, the happy
go lucky. girl who is ~perchance men
tally ahead of her sisters and who
frankly prefers the interests of men,
and OBJ the contemplate class-the
semi-hysterical girls to whom love
and heart affairs are to them as the
joy of living. Enough about the lat
ter, she Is easily recognized and
easily despised.
But there is much to be said of
the btg-minded, broad. fair, laughing
young lass who frankly conceded
that quite apart from the question of
love or courtship, she enjoys the ac-
quaintanceship of the male sex. The
reason is simply explained. This
type is rapidly developing among the
business and professional girls. the
girls who have gone out owing to ne
cessity or in pursuit of careers and
have become a part of that hazy
dream of which sho had heard her
father refer to as business" Also,
there has developed one fact and that
is that in nine cases out of ten they
have more admiration for men now
than they did before. Why2 Because
they have worked with and COPIED
with problems hat before were left
in that haze called business" To
the girl who enters married life with
out ever having been in the business
or professional world at all. hat word
business Is simply q vague something
hat keeps hubby busy during the
day, but to the girl who has worked
side by side with men and laughed
with them, fought with them and
helped them. she is the lass that is
ready to smooth the tired lines from
bubbles face just in the right way.
So I'd say to be q boys girl like
men (the right sort of course) ad-
mire and try to understand their good
qualities (they most all have some)
and try to keep them in good humor
which sounds easiest Of all, but is

Dear Helen m Girls:
"Once more / pick up my pen TO
write. 1t has been about three
weeks or more since 1 have written,
things that sometimes l don't believe
1 could hear myself talk, because j
was talking and doing something I'M

how our Halloween Party went along
but since ii wasn't very successful /
won't bother telling about 1t.
Now on Xmas Il Senior class is
going to have a party. l know, posi-
lively, and hope that it will be q de-
cided success. We win have a fine
program consisting of solos, both
piano and vocal, q Christmas play,
some chorus singing and games and
dancing will no doubt wind up the
evenings party, and of course we
won't miss the Dough or twig of mis-
tletoe. Last yea one of our faculty
always tried her best to keep away
from under the misletoe but all OF a
sudden when she least suspected it,
why! Smack She was kissed under
the mistletoe." oh, didn't we laugh
Everybody there had laughed. We
had great fun that night but we only
had music either by victrola or piano.
This year the orchestra of the High
School is going to play. Do hope that
we shall have q good time girls.
Xmas Is getting nearer and nearer
every day. I'm not making any Of

1 have no time, but e year l hope
to make some or most of them. 1

very pretty or rather Will be when
1t Is finished. / am making 1t for a

mine. Her birthday has passed but

up spic and span by Thanksgiving, 30
that when She IN home from col
lege she can take 1t back with her
when she goes back. You girls may say
Thanksgiving is n long time off. No
it isn't. It's but two weeks off now
and I've quite q bit of work to do on
it before 1t Is quite ready. I want 1t
to be quite q surprise to her. I am

Of history. Francis Bacon. the greatest
thinker Of his age, was ruined by his

For this same sin Gorgei betrayed
