“No great damage dona,” 1 told hor.
catching act?” Pauo asked ny
"Ho you mean to tell me he’ll ac
tually go down and catch one of
those horrible things with nothing
but a rope.” H||y exploded.
If we can find one that’s lazy
and quiet.” Pauo answered.
Then we were cruising along near
where a high rocky point lifted above
deep water. Ihnga. the mate of the
schooner, was with ua In the big
outrigger canoe.
Through the water glasses we
were studying the coral caves and
grottos at the base. In the clear sun
light the delicate shades of mauve,
lemon yellow and pink showed witti
startling beauty in those underwater
coral beds. There Is an ethereal qual
ity about them that Is stunning. In
the crystal water brilliantly colored
ftah flashed about.
"Doesn’t that lovely picture down
there take you back to childhood
dreams of fairyland," lone asked.
"See tho.-vc castles, forests and dark
caves."
We had been cruising for possibly
two hours when sudiienfy Potlt
shouted in broken English that he
had found a shark. Ho directed our
eye*, and there in the black mouth
of a cave we saw the ugly creature,
his great head protruding a few feet
Into the sunht water.
"That one will do.” 11a via told
I'auo and she translated for ua. "He
says that shark Is full of flsh and
resting.”
Carefully the canoe was laid
against the shore and Pinga ami
Potii climbed out, making fast one
end of the roiie with a half-hitch
around a stout tree. Tom and Larry
took the paddles and worked the ca
noe out over the cave and the shark.
“000 00! Havia. you’ll get killed.’’
Pilly shuddered. We were all remem
bering the ferocious attack of the
loathsome monsters on the whales.
Tucked in the pareus of each of the
natives I saw long, wicked looking
sheath knives.
Then Havia grinned at us. filled
Ids lungs and aHpped overside -.vith
the ease of a seal. Through the
water glasses we watched him sink
straight down through some ii feet
of water ’Tour fathoms.” Pauo
guessed It. With him he carried the
rope end with the running-noose
.In it.
Here was an exhibition of daring 1
which for high tension thrill, had 1
anything stopi»ed that any of us ha-! :
ever witnessed man meeting the:
monster ot the deep, whose only nnf-l
ural enemy was another shark. In
Ida own element l>ent on besting him
Kallure on Havia’a part meant death
In one of its wickedest forms, or at
least the loss of a limb.
*. Now the man was standing beside
the monster, l-’or a moment 1 don’t
think any of us breathed. We
watched, powerless to tear our eyes
away from the underwater <li-*ovfi.
Then Havia struck the wvil-looking
s-nnut sharply, and In the split sec
ond as the shark turned to see what j
creature had the audacity to tease j
him, the noose was slipped over the |
flukes. With a spring from the hot- [
tom the man was tin and away.
The entire thing had token pns. •
HENDERSON, (N. C.J DAILY DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1982 ■*
Eibly a little over a minute from the
time Havia had sllpiied into tht
water. Now as he reached the sur
face. we gave him a hand over the
side. Then the fight to land "mako”,
as the natives call the shark, began.
Steadily I’lngu and Potii snubbed
tli* slack in the rope, checking the
furious lunges of the gr.-us fish. Ju
diciously we moved the canoe a few
feet front the scene of hattle. watch
ing all the time. Little by little, then,
the rope shortened and the shark
was gradually being drawn in.
“You wouldn’t want that rO|ie taa.
t< n *d to a boat like this.” I’auo de
clared. ’Those big fellows will pull a
40-foot boat along at a good dip.”
Finally the ugly snout broke the
water, and the lushing of the fiower
ful beast leciune frantic a« he began
to drown in *he air. As the thrash
ing continued the line was snubbed
tighter until now the shark was
partly out of the water. Hraduully
then it subsided. Finally Plnga
picked up a stout club and hashed
it heavily on he front of Its head.
"Sharks are not hard to kill If
you hit them right in the front of
the head.” I’auo informed ua 'Their
brain ta there anti also the end of
their spinal column."
Havia accepted our compliments
for his daring feat with a satisfied
grin. Pauo v«aa talking to him In a
rapid patois of French and Polyne
sian.
Then we were inspecting our first
shark at dose range.
"Whut will that weigh," Tom
asked l’inga.

studied the great fish for a moment.
“It's a littls over IS feet long Oh.
1 should guesa somewhere in the
neighborhtiod of half-n-ton."
Ai we studied the ugly jaw- of
that fthaminer-head" we shuddered,
and there came to ua a new appre
ciation of Havia's courage.
Hack at the palace once more we
held a f-oat-ruoileii)” on what we
had seen. The Knglish language
m cnied short on adjectives for Pilly's

We were all clear on one point—
that Moetonga offerexl ft rare as
sortment of unique entertainment.
After a time the girla left ua. I
knew they were going to do a little
more copying of that log's code. Tom
! went up to the tower to "practice”

j (gizlly I sat resting. Time flowed
- -'\cetly there In that wild garden of
•he Pacific. Deeply 1 breathed the
perfume of those soft, exotic, trop
ical airs. The trade had died down
and the lagoon slumbered blue,
while the s*-a creamed sortie on the
outer reef.
Looking back on it, 1 have often
wondered if fate wasn’t giving ua

weevils a chance
ALL any weevil asks is a chance—one chance.
IjjL Once he gets busy with a square, the boll is
gone. Reports indicate enough weevils this year
to ruin the crop, if they get a chance.
Whather they get it or not, depends pretty
much on you.
Weevils can’t hurt a crop much, once the bolls
are set. Because of the heavy infestation this
year, set your crop as early as you can.
Nothing takes the place of a Chilean Nitrate
side-dressing for making an early crop. There is
no way a little money could be better invested
now than for 100 pounds (200 pounds would be
better) of Chilean Nitrate to side-dress each aero
of your cotton.
Don’t fail to specify Chilean Nitrate when
you see your dealer. That is just as important as
side-dressing itself.
