Port Moresby, July 5.

WOULD-BE Dobells of the town are busily splashing paint on canvas in hopes of winning favourable com ments at the Moresby RSL’s Arts and Crafts exhibition on August 19 and 20. As well as paintings, there will be displays of sculpture, woodcarving, pottery, nhoto graphs, needlework, native art, etc. A special competition is being held for a design for a postage stamp for Papua- New Guinea. The Administration will consider using the winning design when the Territory starts issuing its own stamps again.
