Another Eve in a Garden of Eden—but this garden is in the Gilbert Islands and the fruit which seven-year-old Angela Tenanorake is enjoying is from the pandanus tree, a sweet fruit enjoyed by islanders, young and old alike, and sometimes made into rough cakes. A pandanus fruit, larger than Angela’s head, hangs alongside the child. The picture was taken by the Ger man film producer Karl Heinz von Stellmach for the film of the Gilberts, Sailing in the Trade Winds.
