Avenues

Malaguna Avenue, Rabaul, NG, did not lose all its rain trees during the war as reported in the August PIM. says Captain Brett Hilder of MV Morinda who supplied these photos. About a third of the line is left, as shown in this recent photograph which he Uok from the Malaguna end. Much the same can be said of the famous Mango Avenue—shown below in its present state. Casuarina Avenue and Kombiu Avenue fared much worse, being quite de vastated. Most of the missing trees are being re placed by the Administration so that in years to come, even if abandoned, Rabaul will be a place of fine trees.
