Time, thereby gaining another hour of
daylight. Crossed the Texas State line
into New Mexico, which was rather
rough. Saw graveyards where the
graves were piled neatly with heaps of
stones—just as you've read they did
years ago. Crossed the state line into
Arizona, covered 358 miles, and spent
the night at Safford, Arizona.
Tuesday: Resumed our journey at
7:15 M. 8S. T. Saw the Indian hot
springs; also an Apache Indian village,
all made of straw “wickiups’”—Ilooks
like small hay stacks with a small door
or opening in the side. There was a
small fire on the floor in the middle of
each, over which the Indians were
cooking their breakfasts when we came
through. Crossed the Coolidge Dam and
entered the Great Western Desert over
the Devil’s Canyon—which is both too
awful and beautiful for description.
Cactus of all kinds. Crossed the Superi-
or Mountain range through a tunnel of
solid rock, after which we passed gold,
silver and copper mines, all in opera-
tion, Ate our dinner on the desert,
where we picked yellow daisies, Cross-
ed over Superstition Mountain—the
Indians believed they would turn to
stone if they crossed it. Later we saw
our first Palm, Orange, Lemon, Grape-
fruit, Pomegranate and Date trees, all
loaded with ripe fruit. Spent the night
with an aunt in Phoenix.
Wednesday: Started at 6 M. S. T.
Crossed the State line into California.
Crossed the Mojave Desert, which is
much different from the Great West-
ern. It does not have any cactus or
grass—just pure yellow sand, rippled
in heaps and piles. Later we came to
huge orchards of orange, lemon and
grapefruit trees, all loaded with their
golden fruit and glossy leaves. Lots of
beautiful flowers (or we thought they
were then—not having seen this is-
land.) Arrived in San Diego and had
dinner with Bernie and Elsie Manion.
Spent the night in San Diego.
The Pacific At Last
Thursday: Left San Diego at 8:30 to
begin our last land lap of 125 miles.
Had our first sight of the Pacific
Ocean, which, by the way, had a very
much different coast than the Atlan-
tic—no white beach sand, just mud and
rocks, Also saw what was to be our
home for the next six days—the S. S.
Malolo. Put our trunks on board and
then visited a beauty parlor for a
shampoo, wave and manicure. Marvin
and Thomas also having haircuts, etc.
Spent the night in Los Angeles.
Friday: Reported to the S.'S. Malolo
at 8:30 a. m. Put the car on board and
went aboard ourselves at 9:30. The
boat left the dock at exactly 12 noon,
when we were immediately called to
lunch by chimes being played through
the halls. The ocean was calm, and al-
though rather dizzy; everyone seemed
to be enjoying the trip. I received ten
letters as our boat left the pier, to-
gether with some pictures, and as they
were the first we had had since we
left home they were read and reread
over and over. We ate dinner with a
full dining room and the next morning
passed through the Golden Gate at cay-
break and entered San Francisco,
where it was raining and foggy, and |
where I caught a heavy cold which, of |
course, had to settle on my lungs, keep-
ing me in bed under the care of the
nurse all the way across. /
Five Boats Sink
The boat left the harbor of San
Francisco at 6 p. m. and that evening
was the last in the dining room for me
until the Aloha Dinner on Wednesday
evening. Saturday night a terrible
storm came up which took five ships
down about 500 miles north of San
Francisco, with all lives lost. But al-
though the Malolo plunged and rolled
like a raging beast, she rode it high,
wide and handsome, Sunday morning
nearly everyone was confined in their
rooms. Marvin, Thomas and I were all
seasick, but Tommy snapped right out
of it and had the time of his life. Being
the only child on board in that class,
he was everybody's pet and made
friends with them all from the bell-
boys and officers to the passengers,
evening first class. Marvih was not so
well, but able to be about. The boat
was a floating hotel, with everything
in it one could imagine. The days
passed with music, dancing, games,
movies, etc., until it came
THURSDAY: January 16, 1936, when
we came in sight of the Hawaiian Is-
lands just at daybreak. They looked
like /darker clouds along the horizon.
About 8 a. m. we were met by a boat
from Oghu—also a thunderstorm. And
later Hawaiian men and boys swam
along beside the ship catching coins
flung into the water by the passengers.
Came alongside the dock at 9 a. m.
where the native bands played and I
heard the grandest singing it has ever
been my luck to hear by two Hawaiian
women and two men. Mrs; Olenik and
Marion met us, bringing leis for each
of us, but Commander Griffen was the
first one to us, also bringing leis for
each, so we entered the Paradise Is-
land in full regalia. Commander Griffen
put his car and himself at our disposal
all day and believe me, he is some
friend to have in a strange place—as
well as any other place; they don’t
come twice like him. He had evidently
canvassed this whole island to find
suitable living quarters for us before
we arrived.
More about the island ‘next time.
