cars o take the party On u Sightseeing Ir1D. Inc
route is from Kahului to Paia and thence up to
Makawao, passing much of the way through the
cane fields of the Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar
Company and the Maui Agricultural Company. AT
Paia, at the sugar factory of the Maui Agricultural
Company, is a fuel alcohol distilling plant. From
waste molasses the company manufactures all the
motor fuel for its motor and tractor equipment and
for domestic fuel for its employees. The company
also has a cement making plant.
On the return trip the cars will pass the Maui
Polo field and Hawaiian Commercial and Sugar
Company Mill at Puunene. This company is the
largest sugar producer in the Islands and its mill
was until recently the largest In the world. What
is being done for labor in community houses and in
housing will be seen in this plantation.
Returning to Kahului, the cars will proceed in
land to Waikiki, the county seat of the Island.
Here is the Waikiki Sugar Company's mill and for
some distance the road to and out of Wailuku leads
between its fields. Waikiki is situated on the West
Maui foothills, peaks rising back of it to a height
of more than 5000 feet. 1t is at the mouth of lao
Valley, one of the most picturesque sights of the
Islands.
Proceeding out from Waikiki, Waikapu is passed
and soon Maalaea Bay appears ahead, a crescent
sheet of water one horn lying under the mountains
of West Maui, the other under the shadow of Hale
akala.
Soon after leaving Maalaea the road ascends
and clings to the pail (cliff) into which it is cut.
1t is a drive of rare scenic beauty with new vistas
opening at each and every of its many turns and
twists. AT points the road is several hundred feet
above the ocean on the steep %precipice. The larger
of the Islands seen from here is kahoolawe and the
smaller is Molokini.
After passing the pail, Olowalu Plantation, one Of
Maui's smallest but one of its most prosperous
plantations is reached and passed and the cars pro-
coed on to Lahaina, the one time capital of Maui
before the Islands were united into a kingdom by
Kamehameha !. Here, also, the missionaries stop
ped before going to Honolulu where most OF them
located.
At Lahaina is the mill of Pioneer Mill Company
one of the largest and best equipped in Maui:
The town is one of the most attractive and trop-
ical in verdure and vegetation of any in the Terri
tory. On the mountain side above it is Lahaina-
luna School, designed for the vocational training OF
students of Hawaiian blood. Looking out from La
hama the Island of Lanai is the nearest, looking
West and to the Northwest the heights of Molokai
rise.
