PERSONAL SLANTS of an Average Man By John Bottle TRADE WINDS CALLING (Island of Maui) Last week, we boarded a plane at the airport in Honolulu and took a trip to the big Island of Hawaii, largest in the Hawaiian chain. After a "tourist-eye view" of all the attractions on this beautiful island, we are on our way to the second largest, the "Valley Isle" Maui. Maui is about one-fifth the size of Hawaii, and is composed of two distinct mountain masses joined by a narrow isthmus. The mountains of Haleakala to the east and Puu Kukui to the west were at one time separate islands, which were gradually connected by lava flows, and coral formations that eventually became covered with the wash from both sides. The soil in this district is very rich, and many large pineapple and sugar plantations are located here. The seaports are Tahaina on the west coast and Kahului on the north. Kahului is the chief port it is here where the tourist usually first sets foot on Maui, owing to the low and marshy ground around the port. The tourist hotel are located at Walluku about three miles inland. A trip up Iao Valley from Waikulu to Puu Kukui peak is well worth the effort, as the view of the surrounding gorges of Iao, Wahee, Olowalu, and Waikapu, and the mountains of Hawaii in the distance is a sight you will always remember. A trip to the west coast of Maui to Lahaina should prove very interesting. Lahaina, whose name means "Day of Cruelty" is twenty-five miles from Waikulu, and at one time was a large, A trip up Iao Valley from Wailuku to Puu Kukui peak is well worth the effort, as the view of the surrounding gorges of Iao, Wahee, Olowalu, and Waikapu, and the mountains of Hawaii in the distance is a sight you will always remember. A trip to the west coast of Maul to Lahaina should prove very interesting. Lahaina, whose name means "Day of Cruelty" is twenty-five miles from Wailuku, and at one time was a large and prosperous town. Over one hundred years ago it was a place of rendezvous for the whaling fleet sailing the Pacific Ocean. Lahaina was also the capitol of all the islands at one time and it was here that King Kamehameha III ruled with much pomp and ceremony. It was he who gave the natives their first constitution, which was formulated at Lahaina. AUTO GLASS Of All Kinds. Table Tops, Mirrors and Window Glass PHIL'S AUTO GLASS Phone KE. 5-6907 928 N. Los Angeles St., Anaheim As Mauna Loa, the active volcano, is the main attraction on Hawaii, so Haleakala, "House of the Sun," and the largest of the world's extinct volcanoes is one of the main attractions on Maul. It rises over 10,000 feet above the sea and forms a crater whose rim is twenty-one miles in circumference. A trip to the summit is indeed a thrilling experience. The last two miles of the ascent is usually above the cloud belt, and it is certainly a novel experience to pass through this sea of mist and soft white fog and then suddenly emerge into the sunlight. The ascent of Haleakala is usually made primarily to view the most gorgeous sunset and sunrise you will ever see on this earth. If I should ever made another trip to the island, I would certainly make a side trip to Maul and Haleakala. The sun rising or setting over Haleakala. Crater is indescribable—one has to witness the sheer beauty of the spectacle to appreciate it. Other scenes on Maul are more or less a repetition of what have seen on Oahu and Hawaii we will not go into them. P.S. Next week we will talk Kaul—The Garden Isle—side trip to Molokai. Of all lands in the Hawaiian chain seemed to me, the most b "south sea isle" of them you next week. Who gets the money Standard takes in? Crude oil was a big item. To supplement our own production we bought $135,600,000 worth—an important sum to crude oil producers. Wear and tear, depreciation and upkeep cost $157,834,000. Part of it will replace worn-out facilities, but millions went to workmen, technicians. New construction, such as refinery facilities, make more and better products, cost $144,000,000. This helps meet builders' payrolls. Exploration to replace oil our customers use is a vital operation. Our stepped-up search for new oil reserves cost $79,000,000 in 1953. Employees' wages for time worked took $163,-947,000 of our income. Another $43,000,000 went for employee benefits for Standard Oilers. Taxes paid by Standard to U.S., states, counties and cities amounted to $106,300,000—enough to buy plenty of fire trucks, schools, bridges. 112,000 shareholder profits came from what was left. They received about 5½% on each dollar's worth of stock. Total: $86,020,000. Your picture belongs here, too. Because most of the $1,156,757,000 Standard Oil Company of California took in last year ended up with you—the public. Whether one of the hundreds of millions of dollars worth of checks Standard wrote last year was sent to you, or spent with you, or helped make possible better gasoline and oil for your car, you and practically everyone else in the West benefited. Thousands of merchants and professional people in hundreds of towns profited from the pay checks Standard Oilers spent. Our tax payments helped finance schools for your children, parks for vacationers, and bridges for motorists. Carpenters, steelmen, lumberjacks benefited from the facilities we built and the maintenance work we did. It all fits together: 1953 was a good year for Standard because so many of you thought our products well made and worth buying. And by making it a good year for us, you made it a good year for many others. STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA 75 years of planning ahead to serve you better Santa Ana Woman Takes Own Life NEWPORT BEACH (OCNS) — Apparently depressed over financial problems and disillusioned by the lack of help from friends and relatives, Mrs. Gladys M. McDonnell — 70— of 418 West Second St. Santa Ana, formerly of Englewood. Colo. took her own life Sunday morning. Newport Beach police officers Robert Carter and Ed Brawn came upon her lifeless body about 1:15 a.m. Sunday in her car parked at 23rd St. and Ocean Blvd. The dead woman's head was against the back of the front seat. The face was marred by blood from a bullet wound in the right temple. The death gun was laying on the lap of the deceased. The hands of Mrs. McDonnell were folded as if in resignation across the steering wheel of the car. On the seat of the car were the worldly possessions of the dead woman. Police were forced to break open the door of the locked auto. A purse contained $50 and a note explained that the Colorado State pension of the dead woman was not enough to live on. It further explained that she was ineligible for a California pension until after five years of residency. A pen and paper used to write the note was found on the front seat beside the body. The note expressed bitterness that relatives and friends whom she had helped in past years either could not or would not assist the aged woman in declining years. The note advised public authorities to sell the car in order to obtain funds for a funeral. The note also requested that the body be cremated. A nephew and niece are being sought by the Baltz Mortuary who were assigned the body by the coroners office. JEALOUS MOTHER—Mother cat suspicious eyes chickens not near to care for her offspring. Kittens have now adopted offspring, much to the delight of the feline renter. Chicken Takes Over Chore of My Sense of the little ones Strange things are happening in the animal world — at least in one hen nest tucked away in a lonely corner of Modjeska Canyon. A mother cat has been ousted by a chick-less hen who has literally taken under-her-wings four kittens born in her nest at Easter time. The cat made a big mistake when she picked the hen's nest for delivery of her first family of sons, for that's about the last she's seen of the little ones. Her visits are limiting periods, and even served warily by the hen, who has six kittens by proxy. Possessive and perturbed, hens are known death other animals, which aren't their own chicken, owned by M. Counselman, Star Rourd.

Her visits are limited to feeding periods, and even those are observed warily by the jealous eyes of the hen, who has claimed the kittens by proxy. Possessive and persnikity creatures, hens are known to peck to death other animals, even chicks which aren't their own, but this chicken, owned by Mrs. Dorothy Counselman, Star Route, has moth-ered the kittens as lovingly as any eggs. Her rule of the roost is almost over though. The opening eyes of the babes, restlessly searching the intriguing, goings-on outside the nest, are beginning to wiggle their way out from under their adopted mother's warm and protective wings. Mother cat, who has had only snitched minutes with her family. Is delighted, but mother hen is drooping with sadness. She won't be left in her cold nest alone for long though. A batch of chicks will soon be on its way to replace the furry kittens, and though she probably will turn up her beak at first, she will at last have a family of her own to cuddle.
