More Passengers

CARPENTER LINE ship, Lakemba, went into dock in Vancouver at the end of April for alterations. When she comes out she will have cabin accommo dation for 100 passengers instead of 60, as at present.

It is expected that more attention will be paid in future to the passenger side of her business and that sailings will be made direct from Vancouver to Sydney.

On the return voyage calls will be made at Suva, Honolulu and San Francisco. Ac commodation from USA to Australia is already booked well into next year.

Mr. and Mrs. Rutledge and family, of Hohoro, Papua, New Guinea, have arrived in Brisbane on ten weeks’ vacation.
