Ocean Is., Mar. 24.

A MATRIMONIAL record was estab lished this month, when there were three weddings in a fortnight.

The marriage of Mr. and Mrs. F. J.

Thistlewaite linked Nauru and Ocean Is land, for the bride was until recently a nurse in the British Phosphate Commis sion’s Hospital at the former island. A week later another young couple were married, Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Crichton.

And the following day Mr. and Mrs.

George Holt were united; the bridegroom has been employed by the B.P.C. for a number of years.
