She has made six trips to Hawaii, where she visits her friend Erma Meeks Boyen, director of the Hawaiian Electric Home Service Department. Mrs. Boyen is the wife of Colonel William Boyen of the U.S. Army, so when Norma visits them, she has the opportunity to see and learn of Hawaii from many angles."
