We see by posters scattered about
st. Joseph, (and We note printed by
the Huff Printing Co., at Slidell,
La.,) that the new Castillo play, "The
Love Nest" will be presented at Ma
sonic Hall at st. Joseph on Tuesday
night, May 18th, under auspices Of
Episcopal Church here. The cast will
include a chorus of about 80 people,
all home talent. Admission fee is
fixed at Is cents and children 35
cents. The Gazette is always glad to
give local amusements free space in
its columns, even if the pay work is
done elsewhere. Mr.. Castillo is a
master in his line and all plays put
on by him are delightful. We are
certain "The Love Nest" said to be
his best production, will be quite equal
to if it does not eclipse anything
yet given by him here. In this con-
nection. it is pertinent to remark that
the "Bug House Minstrels," con-
Quoted by Mr.. Castillo at st. Joseph,
some time ago, and composed of To-
cal talent, was signal success, hence
we have every reason to believe "The
| Love Nest" recognized as his master
piece, will be greatly above the aver
age and therefore deserving Of pat
! ronage.

THE MAY DAY FESTIVAL

The entertainment given by the
primary department of the St. Jo-
seph High School, on the Court House
square, on Tuesday evening, was
unique in design, superb in arrange
ment and faultless in execution. The
perfect discipline of the children,
as shown in the careful rendition of
their various parts, evidenced pa
thence on the part of their truct-
ors that speaks volumes for their
own training for this particular work
The court square had been taste
fully decorated for the occasion,
flowers and evergreen and magnolia
blossoms adjoining the improvised
stage, which.was centered in the love-
ly grove Of trees which adds so much
to scenic effect of this beautiful
square. Booths to be used as dressing
rooms had been erected behind the
Stage, affording convenient ingress
and egress to the little actors and
actresses, who, clad IN costumes pc
culiar to their parts, did themselves
proud, reflecting well on their train
ers. Altogether the entertainment was
most enjoyable and the cool but de-
lightful day added much to the pleas
ure Of the occasion. The attendance
was large, many coming from q dis
lance, and all were pleased with the
exercises. Much credit is due the
teachers, Misses Sanders and Bogard,
for the interesting program rendered.

Hawaii Homes Plans
Before Supervisors

For the first time affairs connected
with the Hawaiian Homes project on
Molokai came before the board of su-
pervisors yesterday. George p. Cooke,
executive secretary of the commission,
was over from Honolulu to ask the
supervisors for their cooperation when
it may be needed.
Mr.. Cooke spoke very briefly and
to the point in his short call upon
the board, outlining in clear cut style
something of the project and asking
nothing of the supervisors at this
time.
Probable need of the relocation OF
a road was one of the chief points
the executive called attention to. The
road from Olowai to the cocoanut
grove, about a mile in length is the
one referred to and is too low down
to answer the needs of their plans.
He told the board that Jorgen Jorgen-
sen had been named engineer for the
board and would survey and plan for
the changes that are desired but it
would probably be asked later to have
the county engineer check over his
work.

Final Football of
Season Scheduled at
Lahaina on Sunday

What will probably be the last
game of football among the senior
teams of Maui will be played at La
hama Sunday afternoon. Tuesday a
challenge from Joe Meinecke on be-
half of the Paia eleven was received
in Waikiki asking an exhibition
game between that squad and the
Waikiki Blues and was promptly ac-
cepted. a game between the two
teams had been scheduled to be play
ed at Lahaina on December II, but
owing to the unexpected appearance
of the Navy champions had to be
postponed indefinitely.
West Maui fans may now rest as
sured of seeing their expressed wish
fulfilled in a game which promises to
be the most holly contested gridiron
battle on Maui this year. Paia is out
for revenge, and Waikiki VOWS she
will not be shaken, even for a mo-
ment of doubt, from her pinnacle of
championship.
Paia Favorite
That East Maui will be the favorite
at the opening of the game is assur-
ed, for no one has forgotten the won

the Marines in their meeting last

overwhelming defeat that the Maui

eleven as individuals. Coleman and
Souza in the backfeld with Robinson,
Machado and Misener on the line all
of whom are stars of proved ability
and the other players of the Maroon
eleven whose playing has been be-
yond reproach will form a wall
against which Waikiki will have no
easy pickings."
Champions Determined
Waikiki, too, will enter the game
with players that have distinguished
themselves in former contests. Re
ports from the Blues camp are that
they will enter the contest with a
determination to win that they ex.
pect must turn the tide to a victory.
Crippled with the loss of Pogue and
Penhallow, it may be an uphill strug-
gle for the champions but with the
aid of Morris, Yeckman, Baldwin, Char
and kalua they hope to overcome the
loss of two of their stars. Waikiki
field is the scene of grueling training
every afternoon and evening under
the guidance of Captain Morris in
preparation of the coming meet
which promises to be one hat will
live in the memories of those who
witness it until the whistle blows for
the opening kickoff next year.
lahaina Prepared
West Maui field has been the scene
of considerable activity in the past
week and everything possible has
been done to turn it into a gridiron
worthy of the contest to be played
upon it and before the whistle blows
on Sunday afternoon will see an ex.
odus of fans from Olowalu to Homo.

HOW TO

Worlds Grass and Hard Court
Lawn Tennis Champion

Wild Volleying Usually Result OF
Defective Footwork on Court

kkVXyHY did | miss that volley?'"
wv This remark was made so
often during one afternoon
of practice at the Germantown Acad-
emy's grounds in Philadelphia that
the person who was coaching nearly
lost his voice explaining and reiterat-
ing the following terse sentence:
You hit off the wrong foot, kid"
There was nothing else to say. Nine
times out of ten volleys are missed
because of poor footwork or taking
the eye off the ball. The relation be-
tween them will be about even over a
long period of play. o.
In v%olleying it is not always posi-
Bile to get the feet in the exact posi-
ton wished owing to the lack of time,
but the effect will be the same if the
weight of the body is On the correct
foot.
For the forehand volley: If there is
time get the left Cor 'FRONT.' foot over
and ahead of the right. The weight
is on the right foot until the ball is
met, and then it shifts toward and on
to the left with the shot. To vclley
cross court meet the ball in front of
the body and using a stiff wrist and

shot should be made with the left foot
way across the right, with the weight
coming forward to it. For the straight
volley the feet should be nearly paral-
lei with the side line and the left foot
advanced about sixteen inches.
Backhand Voliey
For the backhand volley shot the
same rules apply, only substitute right
foot for the left foot as the n to ad-
vance into the ball. Volley always
with your weight coming into the ball,
not away from it.
If the return TO you is so quick, if
speed so great that Chere is not time
to get your feet in position, have your
weight on the foot nearest the ball
and coming into the line of its flight.
Never volley a ball in front of your
body. Always make your footwork
such that the volley will be made at
your side and about a foot and a half
from your body. If the ball is COM
ing directly at you, do not advance
your front foot, as this would bring
your body into the balls flight, but re-
treat your back foot, thus removing
your body from the line of the shot,
yet allowing it to pass close to you so
as to volley comfortably.

work and the overhead smash, or kill,
