Mrs. Alan Innes Returns

p. 36 · Read in the full issue

The liner Strathaird, in December, brought back to Sydney the popular pro prietress of the Salamaua Hotel, New Guinea, Mrs. Alan Innes, after a seven months’ wander around the world. Mrs.

Innes went far off the beaten tourist tracks —she was in queer places in the West Indies, for instance, and away at the back of Finland.

When abroad, Mrs. Innes met some old New Guinea friends. She went to France to see M. and Mme. Bernier, who at one time were at Khubhuga Planta tion, and in the Conflict Group. They are now living very happily at Grenoble, where Mme. Bernier has relations, and they gave Mrs. Innes a typically warm welcome.

In Germany, Mrs. Innes called upon Frau Missionary Bayer, who was for many years associated with the Lutheran Mission at Finschafen. Frau Bayer re cently lost her husband, who was for 39 years in charge of Malolo Station (Sala maua). Frau Bayer now lives at Neuen dettelsau, in Bavaria.

Mr. Alan Innes came to Sydney in January to met his wife.
