From Our Own Correspondent
Papeete, Jan. 30.
THE Norwegian liner Stella Polaris, carrying 140 luxury tourists, arrived here on January 28 and left on the evening of the 30th; and in the three days they enjoyed a native feast at Tautira, a reception at the Hotel les Tropiques, with native dancing and sing ing, and many other arranged entertain ments; and they put in much time—and
money—in the dancing cabarets—Queen’s, Col Bleu, Lionel’s, Christian’s, Lafayette, Lido, etc.
The liner had an extra, day here, be cause there is measles in Tahiti, which meant that she could not call at Raro tonga and Apia. She is going to Bora Bora, Raiatea (French Oceania) and Pago Pago (American Samoa) before pro ceeding to Suva.

Suva, Feb. 8.
The Stella Polaris spent one day in Suva. The passengers were early ashore and, in fine weather, they visited local spots of interest, and saw a meke at Albert Park and a fine display of hibiscus at the Parish Hall.
