cacy still in demand, although a pudding made of arrowroot is 
rapidly replacing it on account of the simpler preparation of the 
latter. The implement now used for kulolo is a long piece of iron 
(often a flat file) serrated at one end, sometimes set in a wooden 
handle. ‘The operator either stands orsitsonit. Inthe Hawaiian

sisting of a wooden stool with a projecting arm and a grater of 
coral bound to the outer end." 
There is some variation in the design of the shredders illus- 
trated. Fig.1. To the right of the arrows in the cross sections are 
shown the portions which were shaped (by grinding). Nos. L 925 
and L, 970 are of a similar and effective pattern, the cutting angle 
in each being directed upward, and a sharp edge obtained. No. 
L970 has apparently seen more use and undergone sharpening 
by further grinding on the upper edge of the shell section. A 
comparison of these two specimens will demonstrate this proba- 
bility. The serrations in both are regular. No. L 969 has not 
been so evenly serrated, nor does it appear of such good design, 
since the cutting edge is rounded. It has been much worn.
