p. 59 · Read in the full issue
When Mr. Roy I. Kimmel, com mercial counsellor at the American Embassy, Wellington, returned from a vacation trip to Tahiti in July with Mrs. Kimmel, he said: “Tahiti is one of the most delightful places we have visited. There is no colour discrimination whatsoever, the people are happy and contented, a holiday there is not unduly ex pensive—in fact Tahiti is a wholly delightful place for a holiday”.
At St. Christopher’s Naval Chapel, Devonport, Auckland, NZ, on June 24, Dalma Agnes Margaret, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. O. E. Palmer of Tarawa, Gilbert and Ellice Islands, was married to Mr. Alfred John Lock, of Stanley Bay, Auckland.
The bride wore a gown of pale pink slipper satin with broderie anglaise yoke and mittens. She was attended by one bridesmaid, Miss Elvira Haynes and a flower girl, Jean Palmer.
A reception was held at “Greydene”, Takapuna.
The bride’s parents are well known Islands residents, having lived for some years in Levuka, Fiji, and are at present stationed at Tarawa in the Gilbert Islands (Mr. Palmer returned to Tarawa soon after his daughter’s wedding).
The photograph shows the bride and groom at their reception.
