TELEGRAPH. TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 1936.
ELZIRE AND OLIVA DIONNE, forgotten by the world while their children, the Dionne Quin- tuplets (seen below) live in a blaze of world-limelight, have appealed to the King for their children-now wards of the King and living in a specially bulit hospital home-to be restored to

Melrose To Make Good-Will
Flight
Special Centenary Landing
As a goodwill gesture towards his State's Centenary, James Melrose, the famous South Australian airman, will try and time his arrival from London to coincide with an important fixture in the programme of celebrations.
He intends leaving early in May in a Heston Phoenix, the most modern type of British aircraft but will not attempt to break. any records. The words "South Australia Centenary" will be painted on the sides of the plane and while abroad (he is in London how) he will do all he can to tell the world about the State's 100th. birthday.
Meanwhile, all manner of fascinating curios are arriving for the centennial Empire exhibition. From the Gold Coast huve come stone axes and a surf boat carved out of a solid tree trunk and from Jerusalem, 300 articles valued at several hundred pounds.
One includes a plaited wool sling such as David used and the shepherd boys of Palestine still use when tending their flocks. The Rajah of Sarawak is sending exhibits from his museum, says Austral News, and a native hut is on the way from Port Moresby.
"I did not write so much for myself as for Elzire, who is sad that we see our babies only n little, when they
their are in special building.
AMYC feel our family has been divideil, and we'd like to have all our children to our-
selves.
"I have not yet received n reply to my letter, but I know! the King has been busy.”*
