Mondoy) Clarence William Kalea Kinney (1879-1942) was a hard-working and inventive personality, and the 1930 national census finds him, aged 51, on a Hoÿolehua homestead with his wife Grace, his adult son Theodore and teenaged children Clarence Jr., Moses, and Elaine. As a young man in Honolulu, he designed the first “pineapple” shaped ÿukulele (1914), the first monkeypod 51 sectioned-dish (1930's), and even had his shoe stiffener patented in 1937. He also wrote “Holoholo Kaÿa,” “Holunape,” “Aloha Oÿahu,” and “Nä ÿAi ÿOno.” “Hoÿolehua” was composed in 1934, a tribute to the windy and wild open spaces, cold dewy mornings, and beauty of the 52 homestead lands, as well as a celebration of the warmth of wife and family. Oddly enough, 53 Clarence Kinney did not live in Hoÿolehua; rather he lived at ÿOloÿolo in Kalamaÿula. The Farden 54 family, according to Luanna McKenney, came to learn this song in this manner: Aunty Irmgard ÿÄluli (1911-2001) and some family members were flying to Maui on a Royal Hawaiian Airline flight to Maui. As they flew over Molokaÿi and Hoÿolehua, Irmgard indicated that she knew a Hoÿolehua song (Clarence Kinney’s), sang it and taught it to her ÿohana. My the time they landed on Maui, her entourage had completely learned the song. Alexander Bishaw of Hoÿolehua explained that this song was frequently sung at Mormon music 55 gatherings, and the above version dates from 1960s thanks to the efforts of Lei (Kahinu) Makekau.
