One Of The Pioneers.

This plucky old lady, Mrs. Young—

she was 73 last birthday recently made a special trip out from the nfew Bulolo goldfield, in the interior of New Guinea, to be pre sent at an afternoon tea given on April 5, in honour of her birthday. She came along in a small Moth, as nothing else was available.

She made her first flight some time ago in Captain

Moody’s seaplane,

and since then has enjoyed several air trips.

been developed
