RAOUL or Sunday Island, a New Zea land dependency in the Kermadec group, 600 miles north-east of the Dominium, will receive one of its few visits from the outside world in April when the Public Works Department ketch New Golden Hind will make a routine call there, A small volcanic island of 7,000 acres, with a central bush-clad peak of 1,700 ft., Raoul has a climate in which oranges grow in unusual profusion. The New Golden Hind will land stores for the 24 inhabitants, half of whom are New Zea landers, and will take several natives who have been working there back to their home on Niue Island.— N Z Herald.
