Pacific Pen-Friends

SCHOOLGIRLS between the ages of eight and 15 who belong to a club in Essex, England, are anxious to find pen-friends among children of similar ages in the Pacific Islands.

Those interested should write first to the girls’ Club Leader, Miss Doris M.

Pullinger, 16 Halbutt St., Dagenham, Essex, England. She will see that all letters received are passed on to one of the girls of suitable age, and that each letter will receive an answer. She would like you to print your name and address in block letters so that there will be no confusion.

Dr. Rose, who was Chief Medical Officer for a time in the Gilbert and Ellice Islands, visited Australia in September as medical officer on the large migrant ship New Australia. He may seek another Colonial Office assignment after his return to Britain.
