Text Appearing Before Image:
able than he. More recently anadmirable aquarium has been established at Waikikiunder the direction of Frederick A. Potter. In the large,finely lighted glass cases the amazing decoration ofcoral-reef fishes is displayed to great advantage. Of our many exploring trips the most interestingwas that to Kilauea. Landing on the southwest orKona coast of the great island of Hawaii, we firstvisited Kealakekua — the tiny bay where CaptainCook lost his life — after which, farther on, we hired aJapanese teamster to drive us across by coffee plan-tations, over old lava flows, and finally through fernand ohia l forests to the great crater. This gigantic 1 Ohia (Metrosideros), a tree of the Myrtle family, makes the bulk of theforests. Its incongruous rosettes of vivid crimson bloom, looking as thoughpinned on, contrast with the dark gray-green foliage. Beside it grows the palegreen Koa, an acacia the very valuable timber of which is used in buildingthe native canoes as well as for cabinet work.
