The boys are diving for coins as we arrive in the harbor and the guitars are playing on the hotel veranda. In different parts of the island, natives are climbing for cocoanuts and show how to prepare them without knives; fishermen are hauling in their nets and catching lobsters by merely diving for them. Native boys show some of the visitors how to coast down steep grassy hillsides, riding on "ti" leaves very much as they would on brooms, much to the amusement of the spectators. Surf-board riding offers its thrills. We finally depart on the steamer as the peaceful island fades in a tropical sunset. 660 feet standard length Rental $1.00 1139 Code CEFUR Water Wonders Sportlight Edited by Grantland Rice Dry swimming practice is being given a class on the side of an outdoor pool, at the beginning of this subject.
