Genevra reached up and got hold of Mi-s Pamela's hand and laid her bi ight cheek to it. Even at that moment the messenger of a greater Joy than Miss Pamela had ever dreamed of had started on its way toward her.

Two days later Genevra was sent for to come in haste to Miss Pamela. A little boy had brought the meage. Not knowing what had happened. Genevra sped bareheaded through the chill fall rain. She arrived before Miss Pamela, breathless and palpitating.

"Oh. you're all right!" she gasped, gladly. Miss Pamela sat with a letter in her hand and a look of dazed ecstasy on her face. "I've got a chance to wear my lace at last." she said. The letter was from Thomas Crane.

He was about to be inaugurated as mayor of a great city and he had Invited Miss Pamela to come to witness the ceremony. She must in It is a letter from C. H. Cocke, Republican candidate for representative from the fourth diltrict. Mr.

"I believe In doing away with the dormitory system and advocate the cottage or home idea, where the neglected boy can enjoy some of the comforts and blessings of life that attend right living. "I believe that too much attention has been given to the thought of how to riif society of a boy considered a menace, and too little to how to return to society a boy who has to be placed in an institution as a good citizen trained in some trade to make an honest living. "Count on me to help." Another letter received from C. L.

One of There was a gratifying increase in rainfaj over most of the dry districts of Hawaii and Maul last week, according to the weekly summary Issued by the local weather bureau. In fact, there were some pluses where there was too much rain. In the South Hilo district so much water fell that strong winds flattened the cane.

The weather was considered generally favorable and the most ontornistic croi reports for several weeks resulted, especially from the drought affectvd sections. Aside from the localities of greatest rainfall, sunshine was adequate, which in connection with continued warmth, has promoted crop growth. In addition the report says: In Honolulu and vicinity the weather bureau office was 73.2 degrees, or 2.2 degrees above normal, and the extremes were 83.1 degrees on the 22nd and 69.4 degrees on the 23rd. The following stations in Honolulu and vicinity, with their weekly rainfalls: Insane asylum, 0.66; Ka-liu'm, 1.18: Kinau street, 0.37: Lau-kaha (lower). 2.77; Laukaha (upper), 2.SS; Tantalus Heights, 1.5S, and the weather bureau office, 0.1; had an average of 1.36 inches against 1.62 Inches the preceding week.

There were five clear, two partly cloudy, no cloudy, and three rainy days at the weather bureau office, where easterly winds prevailed, with an average hourly velocity of 6.1 miles, and the tri-daily relative humidity ranged from 53 to 82 per cent, with a weekly average of 63.8 per cent.

LE-APSLEY SPEAKS in Bowers Comers aiwa; laughed a good deal at Miss Pamela t'rane. They talked about her a great dnl also. The laughter and the talk were both kindly and toler-ant. hut they tendered to prove that no one took Miss Pamela seriously, unless, Indeed, Genevra Ford did. Gcnevra Ford was almost as unique in her way as Miss Pamela was In hers.

Perhaps this very fact drew them together, although there was no end to the difference in their ages. Mis Pamela lived alone In a tiny white house, lmv, with a latticed porch just bis enough for her little chair and hassock. When Genevra was there with Miss Pamela the lattice of the tiny porch and the white jasmine over It made a frame for a. charming picture, for Genevra was young and dark and 'glowing. Miss Pamela always said that Genevra made her think of blackberries, though she could never explain hy.

Miss Pamela herself was very tiny and white haired, with a constant little smile like a wistful child. Though Miss Pamela had lived all her life In Bowers Corners, she had always kept at a little distance from her neighbors and acquaintances. She was different, and she did not try to overcome the difference or let them. Her life had been gentle, quiet, without large events or high emotions. Until Genevra Ford came she was companioned -largely by her own dreams and fancies.

Genevra knew all about those dreams and fancies, for Miss Pamela had shyly described them. P.ut she did not laugh at them as did the rest of Bowers Corners. Even the fancy about the lace which everybody knew with amusement only aroused tenderness and sympathy iU Genevra. For Genevra had her own dreams and fancies, which were not unlike Miss Pamelas, although they had a more romantic tinge. Miss Pamela had some very fine lace.

It was a "hand down" from preceding generation s. Her grandmother had worn It and her mother, but she ha.d never worn it, because there had never been an occasion in her life which she felt was worthy the honor of her beloved heirloom. A good many people In Bowers Corners had seen the lace and all had heard about It. There was a saying. "You're keeping that as choice as Miss Pamela does her lace." For everybody save Genevra it was just a yellow mass of cobwebs that needed a good bleaching, but to Genevra, as to -Miss Tamela herself, it was the very fabric of romance.

There was one sorrow in Miss Pamela's life that she had never ben able to outlive. She often spoke of it calmly to Genevra. but underneath the calmness was a real pain for which all the sympathy in the world could offer no anodyne. This was that her "family" had never countenanced her. Her "fam-Uy" consisted of several cousins who had gone into the world and made great places for themselves Miss Pamela did not know just what they had done or were doing, but li always kept a beautiful loyalty toward them though they had all apparently forgotten her.

"The Crane family, you know, she said to Genevra, "was always verv worthy and honorable. I've heard mv mother say that my father's word ws as good as his bond If he had not always had delicate health I presume he would have made a name for himself. But he had to have country quiet, so we drifted out here away from the rest of the family. I remember once she was now growing pleas-ntlv reminiscent, "of my Uncle Scott coming to visit father. lie Mas a.

good man." She paused and sghed "lIe was Bome sort ct a Washington. I've forgotten, what. Uncle Scott brought with him his son. Thomas. He was about my age.

Marian Holden Pope has an attractive group of work, extending in subject matter from Italy to California. The etchings of Robins, Partridge, Randolph, Stockpole, Scannon, Albright and Wilkie.

There is a striking wall of the work of D. S.

The large showing of Whistler and Zorn Is still on display this week, together wiyi the etchings of Haskell, Washburn and many of the other American contemporaries. According to Japanese newspapers, M.

Kawahara, the Nuunnu street merchant, is quoted as saying that Kauai, the island most depended upon for rice, is going out of that business. The reasons given ore importation of rice from California and removal of the embargo on Japanese rice. During the war and later Japanese and Chinese went largely into rice on Kauai. They paid high rentals for land and, to meet the plantation bonus, gave large wages to laborers. The price of rice was then high and they could afford it.

The present situation seems to be, however, that the price Is not only lower, hut an abundance of Cali Razors concaved and honed. Safety blades resharpened by experts. Miller's Barbers Supply 1128 Union St. Adv. railroad tickets were inclosed.

It was a beautiful letter. Moreover, It was what Miss Pamela had been waiting all the years for. "You shall go with me," she said. gasped Geneva. "Yes, I need you.

Besides, it will be a great experience for you. You see. Cousin Thomas provides for your going." When Bowers Corners heard that Miss Pamela and Genevra were going to be honored guests of the newly elected mayor of a city su well known, they ceased to laugh, and became very deferential. But Miss Tamela had grown suddenly greatly concerned with many things besides Powers Corners. She had to get money out of the bank cherished money treasured for years against possible need she had to pack her precious lace; she had to put her house In order to leave.

She was starting forth on the great adventure of her life. Next morning, when the 8 o'clock train started cityward it held Miss Pamela, very neat and smiling in black, and Genevra. very flushed and wide eyed in dark blue. The great adventure had begun. At the great city station thev were met by Thomas Crane, ani his sister, a girl of Genevra's own age.

A limousine, with a chaurreur in livery, bore them smoothly to the house, where they were warmly welcomed by Mrs. Thomas, senior. After that they had nothing to ao but to enjoy, wonder and admire. After all. Miss Pamela and Genevra spent nearly a week in tho city, for they found favor from the first.

They went to the theater and the opera; they saw all the sights; they met interesting people. Miss Pamela bought some attractive new-clothes for Genevra, which made the girl very noticeable by reason of her great beauty. As for herself, her simple black silk, with the fon-derful lace, made a costume so perfect and becoming that she needed nothing more. Tbe mayor poked gentle fun at Miss Tamela when the newspapers mentioned her as "a lovely old lady, wearing rose-point." "I declare, ram," he said, "you've turned the head of some cub reporter." The Bowers Corners papers copied this, and added, "our esteemed fellow-citizen. Miss Pamela Crane, cousin of Mayor Thomas Crane," etc.

Yet, when it was all over and Miss Tamela was at home again, she was very glad. Siie wanted a chance to sit down and think it ull over ad talk about it with Genevra. It was then that Genevra told her great secret. "Thomas, Is coming out to see us," she said. "He told me he wasn't going to lose sight of me ever again.

He she paused, all confusion. But Miss Pamela only nodded wisely. 'T saw. I understood the way things were going," she said. Her little smile came.

"I'm going to have another chance to air my lace at your wedding!" And she did. Sure! the world owes you a living, and The Star-Rulletin "want ad" columns suggKt good way to start in collecting it.

27. A visit to an "opening" of almost any well-known couturier in Paris affords considerable interest apart from the main interest dress. Most of the houses which are the ateliers of artists of dress in Just as true a Sense as the studios of sculpture and painters are for their particular branch of art and especially those In the Place Vendome, are old mansions, dating back to long before the revolution. The stately rooms with their ornate and gilded moldings, great twinkling chandeliers shedding irridescent lights as the sun catches them, and graceful arches, porches, doorways and wide, gently ascending stairways, one can so easily imagine peopel with the old aristocracy of France that it almost gives one a shock to see persons of every description, nationality and language sitting bolt upright and businesslike in huge old arm chairs which in every line of their carved frames and silken upholsteries speak of days of ease and lounging; or discussing in couples and trios on a low tapestry-covered bench (about which one can almost see the ghosts of sumptuously clad lovers hover) the merits of a frock of 1920 destined to charm the feminine and masculine hearts for a season. Such was my impression when I paid my half-yearly call on Martial et Armand yesterday, whose delightful Old World residence, tucked In a corner of the Place Vendome, commands a splendid view of the famous I -J V- i r-: LARGEST CAPITAL AND SURPLUS Ms i HAWAII.

Martial et Armand are true artists; never have I seen a model of their creating which did not speak of elegance, grace and refinement combining chic and cachet. Like other houses they feature the high collar, many models especially frocks having collars which hold themselves in place by being caught tightly over the chin. Their embroidery effects are lovely. Fur and materials are embroidered; and one exquisite frock was of white cloth appliqued on chiffon.

Their colors are bright, well chosen and blended with an artistic sureness. The collection shows great variety; perhaps the most charming the models were the afternoon frocks often with a cape or coat to match. An extremely lovely and colorful little model was the one sketched. It was in the favored mandarin red taffeta. At the edge of the apron-like front was an embroidered design in several colors, surrounded by black embroidery long, lose stitches.

This was repeated at the back of the bodice. A gorgeous bird of tropical coloring embroidered at one side have the whole an air of eastern sumptuousness and charm. EVA A. TINGEY. Friday evening, was when she was asked and consented to sing the'.
