Apia, Oct. 20.

AN examination was held recently in Western Samoa to choose three European children for free higher education in New Zealand. The winners of these Government scholarships were: W. Williams, Fred Williams (Government School, Ifilfi), and Michael Meredith (Marist Brothers School).

Mr. Gordon Martin, of Suva, Fiji, recently returned from leave in New Zea land. He occupied the bottom berth in one of the ship’s cabins and on the first night out from Auckland the passenger who occupied the top berth fell from it.

Mr. Martin broke his companion’s fall, but in the process had his own nose broken.
