Season Rain

ON August 23 and 24, Suva was deluged with more rain than it usually gets in the whole of that month.

During the two days, 8.03 inches fell although everywhere else in the Colony there was fine weather. The average rainfall for August is 7.78 inches.

Sports and social functions, in cluding the Governor’s garden-party, had to be postponed. Government House grounds were described as “like a lake.”

II Mr. C. W. T. Johnson has arrived in Suva, Fiji, to take up the post of Aide-de-Camp to the Governor.
