Dr. John F. Kessel, of Los Angeles, returned to Papeete in March after a visit to the United States. Dr. Kessel has for the past

five years, under the auspices of the University of California, been carrying out a study of Filariasis in French Oceania. Under his charge

The fine new Jubilee Church, which is being built by the Methodists of Fiji, is now well under way, as this recent photograph shows.
