World War II Memorial at Moresby

ON Sunday, November 11, a Second World War Memorial was un veiled by the Administrator, Colonel J. K. Murray, at Port Moresby.

The ceremony was combined with a Remembrance Day Service, and was attended by detachments from the PNGVR, the PIR and the Police Force. There was also a fine parade of 200 native scouts and guides.

The rapidly growing Scout and Guide movement among the younger generation of natives in the Terri tory is one of the most encouraging

postwar developments in the Islands. Their leaders, European and native, are rendering invaluable service to the country and its future.

Mrs. R. H. Hicks, of Madang, New Guinea, is at present holiday ing in Perth, Western Australia.
