The descriptive PORTION deserves the
praise of the sevefest critic of prose
expression. Mrs. Hprbes reveals q III,
cid, apt and often iginal turn OF die
ton, flowing and graceful style and
a warm sympathy with her subject, as
well as cordial appreciation of Ha-
waits beauties A single extract will
illustrate her felicity Of style:
All that imagination can picture of
beauty is to be found here Tin Hawaii
blue skies flecked with cuDluIous,
cottony clouds mirrored in opal seas;
verdure-covered mountains looking
from a distance like immense pillows
of green velvet, down whose sides
cascading waterfalls tumble, whose
wind-blown mists fling rainbows for
our further charm, refract all the
colors of prism; land of sunshine
not too ardent, and at the end of Der.
feet days, sunsets that leave one at
peace with God and man."
The book comes at an opportune
time for the holiday trade, for 1t Is
gotten out In "gist" form and will
appeal strongly to ''Kamaaifa and ma
lihini." The cover, in brown, black
and flame-red, depicts the molten fires
of the seething crater, and above a
Hawaiian girl-form displayed In flame
colors. The printing is done with
artistic taste and readers will be es-
pecially struck with the appropriate
and characteristic half-tone illustra-
tions, showing pictures in and around
the crater and elsewhere in Hawaii.
The book is from the Star-BulIetin
press and is on sale at local book
stores. 1t fills need in Hawaiian
literature and as 1t is both authorita-
tive and of unusual literary merit, a
warm reception surely awaits 1t.
This new addition to books of Ha-
waii, and Mrs. Forbes as its talented
authoress, will certainly receive the
appreciation of resident and visitor.

Kilauea's majesty and awful splen-
dor of fame have inspired many to
attempt the task of describing in
prose or poetry the mental visions
evoked by that giant cahldron, but
never has q more appreciative voice
been raised, nor one with more elo-
quent diction, than that of a Honolulu
woman, Kate Marcia Forbes, in a lit
tie book of the press today.
Kate Marcia Forbes, wife of Charles
r. Forbes, superintendent Of public
works, has with this small book at
once proved herself worthy of the
task she has essayed For she has
combined an informative body of facts
with a style and eloquence of prose
which produce a rarely good result.
To many of her friends, doubtless. 1t
will be surprise, just as it will be to
most Honolulans, that there is here a
fine and sympathetic pen able to
weave with the old Hawaiian legend
of Pele the visions which come to the
visitor at this living volcano.
The book is called The Volcano
Kilauea.' Not the least of its merit
is its useful arrangement. There Is
nrSt q page OF QeQlcaIlOn, tnen IWo
pages of introduction Following this
is the legend of Pele, simply told, yet
with a picturesqueness which conveys
the Hawaiian atmosphere Of tradition
and myth. The historical accuracy of
this rendition of the legend has been
vouched for by a Honolulan who Is an
authority on Hawaiian lore.
The fourth and main part of the
book is the description of the trip to
the Volcano and of Kilauea itself
Thus the reader, particularly the read
er who is just visiting Honolulu or
has never visited here, at once grasps
the significance of Kilauea in connec-
ton with the legend, and at the same
time sees this eighth wonder of the
world" through notwithstanding
eyes. -:
