Howoiion Wonderland
In the Outer Islands

two others in the group. Maui
is 101 air miles from Honolulu
and the flight to Kahului air.
port takes about As minutes,
while Molokai is even closer,
being only a 31-minute hop
from Waikiki.
Round trip fare to Kahului
MAUD runs to $24.64 and the
rate to Molokai is $3.50. All
fares quoted here include 10
per cent Federal tax.
Molokai is famed for its mod
ern ranches and plantations in
a setting of old Hawaiian folk
lore, while Maui has a 1000
foot rock spire aptly named the
Needle and Haleakala a dor
mant volcano.
Directly opposite Maui lies
Lanai, an island filed with
pineapple fields. You may fly
from Honolulu to Lanai in
about one hour at a cost of
$20.68 round trip.
HanaIei Valley
North from Oahu, the main
island, lies Kauai and the town
of Lihue. Here verdent foliage,
waterfalls and the Waimea
Canyon bring beauty to this
island. Another attraction is
the Hanalei Valley, which draws
visitors from near and afar.
Fare round trip from Honolulu
is $24.64.
Most of the islands have fine
hotel facilities and. colorful
local tours. However, advance
reservations are essential. Lanai
for example is limited in &C
commodations and is primarily
a pineapple outlet.
The er-iSland airlines are
represented in the States by
the companies offering service
from the mainland to Homo
lulu and travel agencies can
readily sell complete tours in
Guiding transportation.
Travellers who are heading
for Honolulu might care to
consider this advice:
1t takes you hours to reach
Honolulu. Don't stop just
minutes short of the whole
tropical wonderland you want
to see.

tooth ANNIVERSARY
GIVES KITTY HAWK
GROUP MUCH CREDIT
Fair Weather Attends One Of
Greatest Church CeIebra-
lions in Coas+land

Kitty Hawk.-Fair skies favored
the community of Kitty Hawk last
week when it observed the Tooth
anniversary of the methodist
Church, bringing together many
old friends from distant places
after long years Of separation.
This delightful fellowship for sew
eral hundred people, and a first
hand look at the spirit that pre-
vailed among the people of the
community, aroused great appre-
citation and support for the COM
munity and it's new church project.
Kitty Hawk Methodist have set
about building a $4,000 educa-
tional building to serve this
church, and is now on the long
hard task of raising the remaining
half of this fund. In sympathy
with this movement, there came
distinguished Methodist leaders to
take part in the two-day program
on the week end, Saturday and
Sunday. The Saturday program,
which included both dinner and
supper on the grounds, was con-
Quoted principally with the local
leaders taking part and one guest
speaker, Rev. Louis A. Aitken,
Manteo Methodist minister whose
subject was "The Al Priority in
Life"
Rev. Stanley S. Snead, the pas
tor, and the various committee
members performed a prodigious
amount of work in preparation for
this celebration. Men of the con-
munity gave their time to assist
the women in preparing the meals,
and did most of the cooking.
The traditional hospitality of the
community's people would not per-
nit any risk of running out of
food, no matter how many might
come. There was sufficient food
prepared to serve several times
the 500 visitors present. Some 400
chickens on Sunday alone were fed.
Cakes, pies, and many other good
things were In abundance.
The Sunday program featured
the visiting educational leaders.
These were Rev. Paul Carruth,
Executive director, Christian High
err Education, N. C. Conference;
Jasper Smith of Wesleyan College,
(! Rocky Mqs5l.; NC, w. Robbins,
president of Louisburg College;
DR.. Virgil E. Jueen, Chairman
Christian Higher Education, OF
Fayetteville; and DR.. c. Freeman
Heath, district superintendent.
The theme of the visiting church
notables was largely the campaign
for five million dollars for the
higher education program of the
Methodist Church.
