p. 104 · Read in the full issue

Because of government town plan ning schemes, people on some mission land in Apia, Western Samoa, will have to be shifted to other property. This must first be surveyed and the Catholic Church recently advertised for the voluntary services of a retired surveyor to do

the job. Bishop Dieter, Vicar Apostolic of Samoa, said it would also be necessary for the surveyor to go over the boundaries of mission property in outlying areas. The surveyor would be paid travelling and out-of-pocket expenses and would be provided with accommoda tion.

One of the social events annually looked forward to by residents of Apia, W.

Samoa, is the Latter Day Saints’ Gold and Green Ball. Here President Stone of the mission crowns Miss Penina Gi as queen of the ball. —Photo by R. P. Rankin.
