GETTING YOUR BEARINGS FIRST.
The first thing for the traveller to do
after lodging himself in Honolulu is to
go to Punchbowl hill, about 20 minutes
walk back of the town, and take a lesson
in geography. The hill is 500 feet high
and gives one a chance to locate the
points of chief interest about the capt.
tai. He may then ride to The Pail, about
SIX miles out, past the royal mausoleum
and the ancient home of Kamehameha
ILL.,. and up along the edge of a preclpice
from 500 to 1900 feet in height. whence is
obtained a glorious view Of the valley.
Diamond Dead. an excellent crater. is
not far from town. and is worth visiting
as preliminary study in volcanoes. Salt
lake, with its subterranean outlet to the
sea, is worth visit; also the vast rice
fields Of Peal Loeb. which may be
reached by trail. railroad or horseback.

famous for its volcanoes. Kilauea and
Mauna Loa. kilauea is ever active. Its
crater is a seethirg lake of fire, known
as Pele's wrath. Pele, according to my
thology. is Queen of he'll.
Next in wonder is the surf where the
breakers are 10. II and even Is feet high.

Along each of these routes until kilauea
is reached. there is much to see that will
be missed on the other. SO if one has time
one should make the journey twice. At
