Society Turns Out
By The Hundreds
The most successful Society func
tion given on Kauai in many years,
was the dance on Saturday night
at the Lihue Hall given by the
Ladies of the Mokihana Club.
The spacious hall was tastefully
decorated for the dance, the beauti
ful green and yellow decorations
viewing with the handsome gowns
of the ladies for supremacy.
Shortly after eight o'clock the
guests began to arrive and by nine
nearly every available inch of space
in the grounds were taken up by
the motors which came from all
directions.
The guests were met at the en
trance by Representative Coney,
who in turn presented them to the
ladies of the Receiving Committee.
Kach guest was soon engaged with
the fair dancers who were waiting
to enjoy the tuneful two-steps and
the dreamy waltz. Seldom has
such dance music been heard on
Kauai, and the Ladies of the Club
are to be congratulated on being
able to secure such musicians as
were present. As. the hour of mid
night approached dainty refresh
ments were served by a well .train
ed corps of servants who dispensed
delicious ice-cream and cakes.
Shortly before midnight every
one rose as the quintette boys ren
dered Aloha Oe and Hawaii Ponoi,
a few of the dancers taking advan
tage of the tuneful straines for a
last dance. It was with regret
that the dance ended so soon, the
majority of those present wishing
that the clock had been retarded for
at least an hour.
The greatest praise and thanks
are due the ladies of the Club, for
the most enjoyable- and brilliant
dance ever given since their orga
.ation. ...,
