Guinea.

An Aviator In New

Here are three out of scores of in teresting photographs taken by Cap tain P. H. Moody during a recent wander through Papua and New Guinea, in his aeroplane, “Puss in Boots.”

Top.—These are the roofs of a marine village in Papua, near Port Moresby, as seen from the air by Captain Moody. The coastal natives originally built their villages in this fashion as protection from their mountain enemies.

Middle.—This quaint object is one of the Duke of York Islands, not far from Rabaul, as seen from the air by Captain Moody’s camera. The ocean is breaking on the coral reef which surrounds the island.

Bottom. Reception committee of Fly River natives (Papua) lining the bank to receive Captain Moody. The dubu (communal house) in the back ground was half full of human and crocodile skulls.
