In addition to being a hapa haole composer, Johnny (John Avery) Noble composed many traditional Hawaiian hula songs. Twenty-five, including "Hale'iwa Hula," written in collaboration with Jennie Wood, were published by Noble in 1934.
In 1928, Noble, at the request of Brunswick, directed the recording of 110 Hawaiian songs. Many others were made with his Moana orchestra.
Jennie Wood was a featured dancer in the famous Hawaiian Room in the Lexington Hotel, New York. This venue grossed over a million dollars in its first two years of operation (1937-1939). Ray Kinney and his orchestra were a mainstay, and many Hawaiian entertainers were featured there.

Hale'iwa Beach Park, about 3/4 mile northeast of the town, is about the only safe place for the average person to swim along the entire North Shore during winter, according to many locals. Waialua survives as a small rural town, its only prominent structure a rusty sugar mill.
As Chico says, there was a well-known resort at the terminus in Waialua of a sugar-train railway (long gone), but the closest first class hotel now is at Turtle Bay, at the northernmost point of the Island. The historic Haleiwa Theater also was torn down.
