Lookiny Sack On Queen's Career

late Queen Salote Tupou of Tonga was undoubtedly one of the most photogenic sovereigns of the world, as the photographs on this and the next two pages show. In the top picture, the Queen is seen chatting with Tongan students in Sydney in 1961 when she spent her first Christmas in Australia and did some re search at the Mitchell Library for an official history of Tonga. In the lower picture, the Queen is signing the Treaty of Friendship be tween the Kingdom of Tonga and the United Kingdom in May, 1959. This treaty replaced one made in 1900 and ratified in the following year.
