'T'O-DAY, more than ever before, residents in A the Pacific territories require high-class radio receiving sets. It is not only of interest to them, but it is vital to their safety that they should know the measure of the world’s news from day to day. For that reason, their radio sets must be, above all things, reliable.

Picture the plight of a man in an isolated place whose radio unexpectedly breaks down, and he cannot get repairs made. For that reason, readers of this journal probably will be interested in the business announcement in this issue of the well-known Queensland firm of Crammond Radio, who have been established in Brisbane for over 20 years as manufacturers of high-grade receivers. The firm announces that it has a wide range of receivers for sale, and that it has appointed two service agents—one in Port Moresby and one in Wau—and is seek ing other agents who are capable of under taking radio adjustments or repairs.—*** Mr. Fred. R. Isom, of Hautabu, Gua dalcanal, British Solomon Islands, and

Mrs. Isom, have been spending furlough

in Sydney. He is printer for the Mela nesian Mission, with which he has been associated for 28 years.

The death in December last of Mr.

Harry Forbes, formerly Clerk and

Accountant in the British Service in the New Hebrides, was announced in the Western Pacific High Commission Gaz ette in February.
