Maui WOman'S Club

The Entertainment Committee
Mrs. Ed Walsh chairman, held a meet
ing Tuesday to make final arrange
ments for the Washington's BirInday
party on the 22nd, which is Tuesday
next, at $3.50 p. m. in the Territorial
Building. The stunts are going to be
loads OF fun and so that no dainty
dresses may be spoiled all are urged
to wear either bungalow aprons or
overalls. Club members are reminded
that this party is for the entertain
ment of the teachers of Maui, and are
asked to fill their autos with teachers,
thus insuring their being present.
Particularly the members living up
country" are asked to see, as far as
is possible, that all teachers have a
way Of attending this party.
Mrs. c.. o. Hansen, formerly an ac-
tive worker in the club, has written
an interesting letter from Manila,
where she and DR.. Hansen are now
located. She stated hat she had Wis
tied a large Woman's club in Shanghai
and that she thought of the club on
Maui on department and regular meet
ing days.
The next meeting of the Humane
Department will be held on Monday
mex at the Territorial Building at 3
p. NJ.
1t is a matter of qualification to the
women of the club who have been for
so long working on the matter of free
transportation for school children,
that a plan has been worked out by
the Legislative committee of the Cham
Der OF Commerce whereby a start is
made in this direction. This is fully
taken up in another column.
Work ONE from Miss Allen, Chief
Librarian in Honolulu, that owing to
war conditions, which evidently still
prevail, funds for establishing Carne-
gle Libraries are nc longer available.
This is particularly interesting at this
time, when plans are maturing for a
library on Maui, even tho the infor
nation will not affect these plans.
Kauai has now it's own Humane So
ciety, subsidiary to the Honolulu So
ciety, however, as the Maui Depart
ment of the Woman's Club is also con
sidered.
If there had been any doubt in the
mind of the public as to the ability of
the Woman's Club to plan and sue
cessfully carry out anything it might
wish to do, this must have been dis
PEELED by the results of the sale and
dance in Saturday last. The sale was
a huge success, between eight and
nine hundred dollars being realized.
Mrs. f. f. Baldwin deserves I'M
stinted praise for her t~ireless energy
in planning and carrying through both
events. But the women of the club
also deserve great credit, for there
were few members indeed who had
not something to do with the success
of the sale, eitser in worning out de-
tails, donating material for sale, or
otherwise. 1t was the best thing done
by the women of Maui since the Red
Cross Shop, which was so successful
in raising money in war times.
sThe dance at the Puunene Club in
the evening was one of the ~jolliest
and best attended in a long time. Re
ceipts were $4,000.
The Hawaiian scene, in which Mrs.
Jno. Wilmington, Miss Copp, Mrs.
Buck, Mrs. Elimy Garcia, Mrs. Jones,
Mrs. Kepoo and Mr.. Kumanaiwa parti-
cipated, with Mrs. Kunewa at the
piano, was delightful. Miss York's
solo dance was an exquisite, dainty
bit of the program that was also
much enjoyed.
Dancing continued until nearly
three o'clock, with a large number
present until the end of the dance pro-
gram.
