A Hawalian Christmas. I Before the missionaries and the American settlers went to Hawaii the natives knew‘ nothing about Christmas, but now they all celebrate the day and do it, of course, in the same way as the Americans who live there. The main difference between Christmas in ilanoiulu and Christmas in New York is that in Honolulu in December the weather is like June in New York. Tixis are warbling in the leafy trees; gardens are overdowing with roses and carnations; fields and mountain slopes are ablaze with color, and a sunny sky smiles dreamily upon the glories of a summer day.

The homely custom of spreading fe+ toons of pink, blue and greon paper from wall to wall is duly carried out, while mottoes, usually of a military character, abound.
