A photograph of the church of the Roman Catholic Mission at Avuavu, Guadalcanal, British Solomon Islands, opened in May, 1938. A pecu liarity of the building is that the whole frame work is made of native wood, which had to be squared and planed by the natives under the direction of a lay brother, as there was no saw mill at the station. Dimensions—length, 90 ft.; breadth, 48 ft.; height of the tower, 60 ft. It is one of the biggest timber churches in the Solomon Islands.
