Ye. who, loved her says she's gone
From out this mortal bourne;
But this know, and still go on
Blessed are they that mourn.
Once when thru forest free,
On dark, dark road trod,
She caught my hand and led me,
Safe to the home of God.
Again she stood beside me
On shining stairway fair,
And my heart was glad within me,
For she told me He was there.
o, ye who loved her and yearn
For her presence here again,
Come into the garden and learn
To walk with the Son of Man.

The style show proved a very sue

the first attempt at such an exten-
sive display in Monte Vista. The
gowns. wraps and hats shown by
the merchants were quite revela-
ton of the latest points on wearing
apparel and were most attractively
displayed by the popular models.
Probably the prettiest number OF
the show was the children's exhibit
by Kathryn klare Harvey and
Loren Matzen. This little couple
logged up IN the daintiest attire rep

OF the "children's party" was made
quite realistic with doll buggy. tri

so well they received the largest in

Honolulu, May "a. p. by maiD-
The wheels of progress were halted
here recently while enforced homage
was paid by workmen to the memory
of an all but forgotten chieftain Of
Hawaii. and the dissertation Of his
ashes was rendered impossible.
In the path of dredger which has
been constructing a drainage canal
there stood a house inhabited by an
old Hawaiian and his wife. They were
warned to vacate as the dredger ap-
preached their small holding.
They refused to leave. After sever
al days of argument 1t was found
that their refusal was based upon the
fact that their house was on an old
burial ground and that the bones Of
a great chief and dozen of his rela-
tives were underground.
The old people would not leave
the spot until they had seen the re-
moval of the bones of the "alif" and
his relatives, and their RENTER
ment in some more peaceful spot.
