From Our Own Correspondent WAU, May 17. mHE Administration engineering staff A at "Wau have been busy putting down footpaths around the business area of Wau. They have definitely made an improvement and, even though at the moment are looking very rough, are far superior to the 4 ft.-high grass that has
been growing unchecked on them until recently.

It seems a pity that some one does not start a tree planting scheme for our streets—anyone who saw the wonderful trees in Rabaul before the eruption can never forget them. Our cli mate, here in Wau, lends itself to many kinds of trees which could not be grown elsewhere in the Territory.
