iieve the picture OF native Hawaiian
erect on surf-board, triumphantly
riding the crest of great wave rolling
toward shore: Only an expert can dc
that trick. but even a novice may ex-
perience some of its exhilaration by
the help of native surf-boat and
strong EARNED rowers.
After visit to Hawaii, however
short, one is apt to appreciate Mark
Twains well-chosen words:
No Land IN all the world has any
deep, strong charm for me but that one /;
no other land could so longingly and
beseechingly haunt me sleeping and
waking, through more than half life
time, as that one has done. Other
things leave me, but it abidcs: other
things change but it remains the same.
For me its balmy airs are always blow
ing, its summer seas flashing in the
sun; the pulsing of its surf beat is in
my ear; can see its garlanded crags, its
leaping cascades, its plumy palms bowling
by the shore; its remote submits float
ing like islands above the cloud rack I;
| can feel the spirit of its woodland
solitude; can hear the plash of its
BROOKS in my nostrils still lives the
breath of flowers that persisted years
and years ago.
