Most of the Comments seem to come from me, but once in a while there are great responses from people moved to comment, like this one from Ka’iulani Milham on Queen Liliuokalani’s jewelry being auctioned off to help orphans: https://nupepa-hawaii.com/2012/08/12/liliuokalanis-personal-adornments-sold-1924/#comment-1188

Six ideas on how to most effectively use this blog ③, 2012.

http://www.nupepa-hawaii.com is the easiest way to look through the tags from all the previously uploaded articles.

The next choice on the bar to the right side of the page is TAGS.

The tags are the next on the right bar. The larger the tag is, the more articles there are related to the tags. Currently it seems there are quite a number of articles dealing with the Bishop Museum, Chronicling America, Hawaiian flag, Kamehameha III, and Kamehameha Schools.

Six ideas on how to most effectively use this blog ①, 2012.

SEARCH.

http://www.nupepa-hawaii.com is the easiest way to search through all previously uploaded articles.

On the right side of the page, you will see a bar with various choices running from the top to bottom, the first being SEARCH

It is probably best to search for the most simplest terms possible, for instance:

“Beckley” instead of “Fred Malulani Beckley Kahea”

“Liliuokalani” instead of “Queen Liliuokalani”

“Kekahuna” instead of “Kekahuna family”

The broader the search terms, the more likely it will be that you get other articles not related directly to what you were looking for. But on the other hand, you might find something unexpectedly related.

Kamehameha Serenaders, 1922.

GRATITUDE FROM THE KAMEHAMEHA SERENADERS.

Mr. Solomon Hanohano; Editor of the Kuokoa Newspaper, Greetings:—Please insert this topic above in an open space in the Kuokoa.

Being that I am Keoki E. K. Awai, the leader of the Kamehameha Serenaders which travelled around Maui and Hawaii last month to increase the funds for the Ida M. Pope Bldg. Fund; I give my great appreciation and thanks to the past students and the new students as well of Kamehameha School, and intimates and friends, for their assisting our concerts and for the good care given us while we went around Maui and Hawaii.

We are greatly indebted to the homes which offered us their fine hospitality, and may God watch over us until we meet once again.

Sincerely,

GEORGE E. K. AWAI,

Honolulu, Sept. 19, 1922.

Old Kuokoa “Paper Boy”, 1923.

This is a picture of Maui Kaiko, one of the paper boys of the Kuokoa, along with his new hat. Maui Kaiko is 70 years old now, yet he is just as lively selling newspapers as the youngsters of town, and by selling newspapers, he has everything he needs in life.

[Notice how the word “keiki” is not only used for young boys (or children in general), but is also used how we use it today, as in: “Maui boy” or “local boy”…]

George Healii Kahea Beckley awarded military medal, 1919.

MEDALS AWARDED, BRINGING HONOR TO HAWAII.

For the past year,  there has been no word to his family, and they did not know whether he was dead or not. However, during the past couple of weeks, a letter arrived written by him from Britain.

Four years ago, George Healii Kahea Beckley left Hawaii for America. in 1914, he departed America aboard the steamship Missourian, full of mules to take to France for the armed forces of Britain.

He got off the ship in France, and entered the battlefield with the British Army; he was shot and returned to Britian.

After he recovered, he joined the war once again on the east side at the Balkans and Salonika; there he again faced injury: he, a friend, and his cousin Hoapili from Hawaii. The three of them were returned to Britain to the Hospital.

Thereafter, he was not heard from again, but last week, his cousin, Leander Beckley,  of the group of car drivers of Fort Street, received a letter from him.

The letter was written on the 22nd of December, saying that he was in Britain, and in good health. He is awaiting his discharge, and then he’ll return home.

[I am not sure about the first reference to “four years ago” and then “1914”… Also, does anyone know who this Hoapili refers to?]

Alligator loose?? 1928.

The body of an Alligator [moo Aligeto] that wandered from the port of Hilo and caught in Honuapo in Kau was taken to show before the school children of the Government School, Union, of Hilo nei. The sea navigating serpent is being cared for by a Japanese Committee of Hilo nei, and it will be sent all the way to Japan aboard a Japanese ship one of these upcoming days.
