SAILORS ARE
KEEN FISHERS

A number of men of the fleet are
enthusiastic fishermen and the diff
ferent methods followed to catch fish
off these shores interests them great
ly. So also does shark-fishing and
several parties have been formed to
indulge in the latter exciting diver
sion.
Considerable fishing is done with
torches at night in the shallow water
of the lagoon, between the shore and
the barrier reer. The torch is usually
of the conically-shaped kind mounted
in a pole, though the natives OF the
outlying districts often use torches
made of split bamboos secured at re-
gular intervals with XII leaves or twigs
of the naio. They are sometimes
made of number of kukui nuts, or
the stems of cocoanut leaves, which
are then wrapped with XII leaves so
as to make the torch round like a
candle. This latter kind win burn
in almost any kind of weather. The
natives have a notion that if the torch
burns with a pale flame the fishing
will be poor, but that if it burns with
a bright red flame it will be very
good.
In shallow water the fish are fire.
quenly speared or taken in a small
scoop net, the fisherman wading round
with the lighted torch in one hand
and the spear or net in the other.
Sometimes, while the fish is blinded
or dazzled By the light, a scoop net

is slipped in front of it by one of the
fishermen, a companion then gently
losses a stone just back OF the fish,
which causes it to dart forward into
the net, and it is captured. This fish
ing is called by the natives lama

Another popular method is stunning

the Tennessee and West Virginia lay
AS to the decorations Of the three
cruisers, it is enough to say that they
were up to the standard of the navy
on such occasions, with a few novel
ties thrown in such as dummies in
diving suits standing at the heads Of
gangways. There was a most lib
eral use of palms, ferns, ported plants
and flags upon the ships as we'll as in
the fitting up of the wharf. At the
outer end of the wharf was the re-
ception pavilion constructed in Jap
anese style. In the middle of the
wharf was an open fernery with a
fountain playing at the center.
AS the guests arrived they were
ushered through a canvas corridor
from end to end of the shed and di-
rected, some to the Tennessee on the
right and others to the West Virginia
on the left After leaving their wea,

commander.
Then the people scattered accord
ing to fancy over the decks of the
three vessels or sat out in groups up
on the wharf The Pennsylvania
was connected with the West Virginia
by two level gangways, one to go and
one to come so that there was no col
liding of opposite streams of folks. A
similar arrangement of gangways
communicated between the wharf and
the ships, also the rule of separate
entrances ana exits to and from decks
internally was carried out. There

One seeing many of the same faces
on two vessels within the space of a
few minutes would almost forget
where one was. This mobility OF
the crowd added to thei general socia-
bility, besides keeping the throng SO
well divided that at no time did any
ship appear more crowded than an
other.
Dancing began early to the music OF
the several bands, at first alternating
between the ships but soon made
simultaneous on all three. Announce
ments of dances were made by mega
phone. Besides the light supper OF
the wharf, the elegant punchbowl out
fits of the ships were in commission
the whole eveningfi, dispensing finely
concocted punches and lemonades.
There were probably from 1900 tt
1900 guests at the entertainment.
Army and navy uniforms in grea
profusion added brilliancy to tn
scene. Happily too there were nava
officers among the guests, those o

WHY GO TO HALEIwA?

Because it is only thirty-nine miles
from town by automobile over one
of the finest roads in the Territory.
Because it is less than sixty by train
and 1t can be reached by the Haleiwa
Limited in two hours. Because it is
one Of the best managed hotels this
side of the Rocky Mountains and be-
cause the golf links, the boating and
rides through the surrounding coun-
try are what makes life worth living
