Mr. Riemy is back again in the district as manager of Messrs. Morris Hedstrom, Ltd., in place of Mr. P. Snook, who has gone on 2V 2 months’ leave to New Zealand. Mr. and Mrs. Riemy are very popular in Savu Savu, and received an enthusiastic welcome.

The Rev. S. G. Cowled, Methodist missionary in charge of the Cakaudrove Circuit (the headquarters of which are now at Savu Savu, instead of Taveuni), left for Rotuma by the “Yanawai” in March. He expects to be away for some two months.
