“Well,” he said, ‘she’s gone. Too
bad. She sounded promising. I was
hoping for a date.”
The grinder started to squeal
again in a high falsetto whine, Tom
uttered a few well-chosen remarks
about the squeal, and the incredible
broadcast was on the air. The grind-
er and the paring knife went into a
state of suspended animation. Tom
looked at me and I looked at Tom.
“Orson Welles in one of his light-
er moments,” I suggested feebly,
taking up the quartering and coring
where I had left off, but with a
dazed expression. The grinding
started again, but intermittently,
with breathless intervals of silence
every time the radio choked off a
torch-singer in mid-air to continue
its fantastic announcements.
I was back again in Honolulu. The

dominant a feature of my landscape

the elephant, chained in her stone
house in Kapiolani Park, who used
to do such a thorough job on an
unhusked cocoanut, rending it with
her tusks and kneeling on it for
the final kill, the Daisy who two
years later knelt on her keeper in
the same manner and crushed the
life out of him; the Pali, that nar-

sheer-dropping precipice beyond; the
Royal Palm trees, the pineapple
plantations, the sugar-cane fields;

even strong swimmers are warned
to never swim there except in com-
pany with other strong swimmers,

through the surf with your ears
packed full of sand; the glass bot-

beds of coral, the beds of coral giv-

niches in the rock.

island Paradise passed before my
eyes. The enormous coast-defense
guns at Fort Kamehameha whose
roar rattled dishes from their shel-

on; smaller guns which were taken
for practice jaunts along the roads
near Honolulu like a Scottie on a
leash; Luke Field, and the impreg-
nable defenses of the greatest of
Navy Bases, Pearl Harbor.
And now enemy planes were
raining destruction upon the Island
of Oahu. As the afternoon passed,
and the pile of apples grew smaller
and smaller, with more and more
big kettles brought from the pantry
to hold the pulp and boil down the
cider, the news became more and
more definite. With the last apple
ground and the grinder taken apart
for scalding, the radio bulletin
made it clear that the Navy had
suffered a catastrophe the like of
which had lived only in nightmares
or the ravings of delirium.
