Maui WOman'S Club

The Civic Department had a large
and interesting meeting on Monday
last, and in conjunction with the HUI
name Department has decided that it
is necessary to raise funds to carry
on the work of the two departments.
The first venture will be a rummage
sale On Saturday, February II. Messrs
Weller and Ross have donated use of
the Orpheum building for the day,
and there will be a wide variety of
merchandise for sale, including a deli
cdtessen department. There will also
be birds and dogs on sale. These will
doubtless find ready sale.
In the evening of the same day,
February u, there will be Il dance at
the Puunene Club. Mrs. f. f. Bald
win and Miss Mary Couch, represent
ing the two departments, are making
active arrangements for this event.
Admission will be the nominal sun Of
fifty cents, and a large crowd is anti
Cipatcd, since few will wish to miss
the pleasure of a dance Mt the Pun
meme. Club, nor will they wish to miss
the pleasure of helping along the good
work undertaken by the Civic and HUI
name Departments of the club. Any
further details will probably be dis
cussed at the club meeting Monday.
Senator Ii. w. Rice took the library
bill to Honolulu last Saturday, and
this bill after being approved by the
Attorney General was turned over to
the Governor and will go through as
an administration measure.
The regular monthly meeting of the
club will be held at three o'clock
Monday next in the Territorial
Building. In addition to the regular
club business, there will be an ad-
dress by DR.. w. D. Baldwin.
With regard to the cemetery above
town. it has become known that those
interested in the cemetery-that is,
those who have relatives inferred
there-may appoint their own Board
of Trustees. When this is done, any
one having any claim against the Gem
etery may present it for consideration,
after which the Trustees will have
control of the upkeep and all other
business in connection with this GEM
etery. The location is unusually fine,
overlooking lao Valley and the sea,
and with the care ordinarily given
burial grounds-but which this site
has lacked for many years-it should
be a place of beauty.
The Home Economics luncheon for
January was held on January 28th at
the home of Mrs. William Osmers,
with Mrs. Bevins as joint hostess. The
details of the luncheon had been very
charmingly worked out by the host
esses and was a delight to those pres
ent, OF whom there were Is. After
the luncheon, which consisted of pine
apple and cheese salad, bread and but
ter, cold ham and tongue, cream puffs
and coffee, and which cost but 23 2-3
cents per person., the regular business
of the department was taken up, the
Chairman, Mrs. Fitzgerald, presiding.
Mesdames Bush, Rothrock, Fitzger-
aid, Tougher and Foss were appointed
Il committee to notify club members
o attend the next meeting of the SUI
pervisors, at which time the fish ques-
zion is to be again taken up Several
members of the club have been work
ing faithfully in this matter and a
large attendance is desired in order
that all may pull together to secure
h%oped-for results.
Mrs. Ralph Wilson was made a
member Of the department.
Plans were discussed for the annual
club luncheon in May, and a commit
tee of three was appointed to plan
menu and costs. This committee is
composed of Mesdames Worth Aiken,
William Osmers and A. c. Rothrock,
1t is intended to supply a luncheon
that can be served for % cents per
plate. 1t will be absolutely necessary
Tor all who intend to be present and
partake of this luncheon to notify
either the committee of Mrs. Fitzger-
aid or Mrs. Watkins, the department
secretary, a month in advance.
After other business had been dis
posed of, each M present was asked
TO give an experience in conservation.
This was an unusually interesting
feature of the meeting.
The next luncheon will be on the
25th Of February, and Mrs. H. S. Bush
and Mrs. David Wadhworth are to be
hostesses.
