New Magazine for Dutch N. Guinea

PIM recently received copies of an attractive “family” magazine, the Triton, printed in Holland especially for residents of Dutch New Guinea.

The magazine is printed in Dutch and Malay and although it is educa tional in character, it contains

something of interest to all members of a family.

Our Dutch is not of the order that permits us to understand who dis tributes the magazine, or why. But we suspect that it is Government sponsored.

It is a finished production, with lavish picture coverage and with the format and style of a metro politan magazine—much superior to anything that comes out of the other South Pacific islands.
