The regular monthly meeting of the
Maui Woman's Club was held in the
Territorial Building az 8 o'clock Mon
day, February Z, with the usual large

first disposed of, with reports from
tie different committees.
Mrs. Ed Walsh, chairman of the
Entertainment Committee, announced
the plan of the annual Washington's
Birthday party, which is to be held
Oh the afternoon of February go. The
occasion is primarily for the enter
tGinment of Maui's teachers, and a
similar affair was a great success last
year. Mrs. Walsh asked that all at

or ovcralls, since it is to be a stunts
patty. Prizes will be given for the

tIrs. Case gave a most interesting
report of what has been done so far
with the Library bill. The bill as TIA
ken to Honolulu was approved as it
stood by the attorney general who,
however, added three clauses, which
were read to the club and approved
and will be mentioned elsewhere in
these columns. The clubs primary
object, the establishing of an adequate
library, seems nearing the reality, and
the rapidity with which this bill has
been passed along since asking Mr..
RICE and other Maui men to assist, is
& matter of great satisfaction to the
loyal ones who have worked while
they dreamed of the library so sadly
needed. The musical part of the pro
gram was in charge of Mrs. Sarah
Buck.
DR.. w. d. Baldwin concluded the
program with a splendid paper on tu-
h~erculoSis. DR.. Baldwin covered his
subject very thoroughly n as too
lluch can never be said in this con-
n2cLion, by way of educating the pub
lie o the dangers of the disease and
ways of prevention, it is hoped that
;li- articles viii appear shortly in the
-Olumns of the Maui News.

The question of what to 10 for boys
