Lepers

The inmates of the Kavieng Leper Colony, New Guinea, are likely to receive some pleasant sur prises at their forthcoming Christmas treat. Fol lowing the publication of an appeal for gifts by Dr. S. A. Holland, medical officer at the Colony, a Sydney firm has donated a number of games and presents. These have now been supplemented by gifts of toys, dolls, balls, beads, etc. from the public. It is intended to send the presents by the November Montoro, so that they shall arrive in time to be distributed among the 550 patients at their annual party.
