Guests at Dinner

For the president, the secretary and
| the athletic committee of lie Maui
| County Fair and Racing Association
j. Garcia, chairman of the athletic
| committee was host at a delightfully."-
| appointed dinner at the Grand Hotel
last Saturday evening. President f.
f. Baldwin was the especial guest of
honor of the evening. Covers were
laid for IA, the feelings of the super
stitous having been considered for
the occasion.
Novel features abounded at the din
ner, which was served in the private
dining room. Decorations were typi-
cal of athletic events and on the walls
of the room were hung such athletic
and sporting paraphernalia as padded
protectors, shin guards, catcher masks
and mits, ball, bats, volley balls and
foot balls and boxing gloves. Defer
ence was shown to ordinary decora-
tive ideas in a beautiful floral center
piece but base balls were an addition
to the table decorations.
Gift For President
At each place the guest found
place card attached to which was
rhyme which he was later called upon
to read before responding to the call
for brief talk on the branch of sport
he represented in committee. Other
rhymes were handed in sealed envel-
ops to the guests early in the course
of the dinner and each one read the
contents. When the guests We're seat
ed and before dinner was served the
host presented to President Baldwin,
with a few well chosen remarks on
what Mr.. Baldwin has done for the
association, a decorative and engrav-
ed chart showing the ramifications of
the committee, the names of the 12
committeeman and of the sub-com-
mitteemen of each of the 12 sub-com-
mittees, appreciation of which was ex-
pressed by Mr.. Baldwin at the close
of the speechmaking, his talk having
been reserved until the last.
Wit, humor and seriousness mingled
in the remarks made by the speakers
there were "reminiscences of other
days and forecasts for the future.
Complimenting the chairman of the
committee and his fellow workers Mr..
Baldwin said that he considered the
work being done more important than
anything being achieved by any Or
ganization in the Islands.
Acting as toastmaster the host read
an amusing rhyme which won the
complimentary comment of his
guests.
