Through Danish Eyes
Writing New Book, Hakon Mielche Will Visit N.G. and Solomons
THAT clever young Danish artist, Mr.
Hakon Mielche, who recently wrote a book describing his interesting experiences in the Pacific with the Monsunen scien tific expedition, will be in Australia next year He has been commissioned by his pub lishers to go to Central Australia, New Guinea, and the Solomons to write and illustrate a series of articles and a book dealing with those Territories. It is to be hoped that English translations will be available. Mr. Mielche writes in Danish. of course, but he has an attractive literary touch and a light style, and his thumbnail illustrations are delightful.
Mr. Mielche has asked the Pacific Islands Monthly to inform all persons resident in the Pacific, who plan a tour in EuroPe that if they will get into communication with him, he will assist them in planning a European trip. He has
wandered all over Europe during the past 15 years, and knows a lot of delightful and interesting places to visit. He also understands the art of planning a tour that is very economical. Mr. Mielche does not suggest any charge for this service— he hopes that by this means he will repay some of the hospitality and help that he received from residents in various parts of the Pacific in 1934.
His address is: Mr. Hakon Mielche, Aaboulevard 19, Aarhus, Denmark.
