NEW GUINEA

An interesting visitor to the Colony, Mr. Norman Neill, a Di- vetor of the Daydown Goldmine, New Guinea, has been staying with friends in Kowloon for the week end and in the course of a conver sation with a Daily Press represen- sitive he described a few of the anny adventures which have befal len him in that island-the largest in the world

It is only within recent years that New Guinea has become famous as a gold mining centre, and it is of interest to learn that Mr. Neilt was one of the pioneers who first ex ploited the fields during the "rush" at Eddie Creek in 1926. The way in which they made their "find" has all the colour of an adventure story. Whilst prospecting in the neighbourhood of Eddie Creek, in a district now known as the Daydown Mine, they struck camp under the charred stump of an old tree which liad been destroyed by lightning the previous day. On palling the tree to pieces for firewood they were ass tonished to find a vein of gold. Digging uporations were immediate- ly commenced, with the result that a rich reef was distovered.

Head-hunters Busy.

Mr. Neill is now a Director of the Daydown Gold Mining Company, which recently paid a dividend of 16 per cent, and also represents the goldfields on the Legislative Coun- cil at Rabaul. In addition he is a Director of Holden's Air Line, a company which operates a plane service between Salamon and Eddio Creek.

During his several yeand residen- ce in New Guinea Mr. Neill has had number of exciting encounters with the natives, who are noted for their turbulance and their penchant for head-hunting.

Irty Dizzy.

In order to escape the attentions of natives, beachcombers and lady | autograph hunters, Mr. Neill "has built himself a house on the top of a high cliff overlooking the town- ship at Eddie Creek. This lofty residence, which is appropriately called Izzy-Dizzy," can only be reached by sending a precipitous gully 200 feet high.

Mr. Neill, who arrived in the Colony on the s.s. Nanking on Saturday, sailed for Japan, where he will spend the remainder of his vacation before returning to New Guinen, yesterday afternoon He told our representative that he saw his first "talkie in Hong Kong. When he left civilisation behind him nothing but silent films were shown at the cinema.

RO. Humphreys: Yes, your Wor- ship. It is the biggest for some time. We take a serious view of the matter as it is difficult enough to search Chinese passengers, let alone Japanese.

The defendant was fired 85,000. with the alternative of eighteen months' imprisonment.

the Cross," was delivered by the Vicar, the Rev. W. Walton Rogers, at St. Andrew's Church, Kowloon, on Sunday morning.

By way of introduction to the course, the preacher pointed out that the Cross stands at the very contre of the Christian Faith, of which it is the symbol. It is the appeal of the Cross that has always won the hearts of men,-converting, restoring and uplifting.

Yet it would appear that this constitutes a heavy handicap, for pain and suffering are naturally rɔ- pellant to healthy,, normat men and women. Wo fight against them a avil things: to endure them un necessarily is folly, while to in- flict them wantonly on others inhuman.

We cannot explain the sufferings of Christ, by saying either that it was the will of God, or bent n punishment. Christ disposed of the idea that suffering was sent in punishment for sin.

The Law of Retribution, It is true that men reap what This is an invariable they sow. law-wheat grows wheat and tares, tares.

Many are puzzled because they see that good men sometimes suffer, as Christ Himself did, while the un- scrupulous prosper. How then can it be that men reap what they sow?

The answer is that we are not

led to expect that material gain is the reward of following Christ.

The harvest we reng is according to the sowing, in kind as well as in degree. The reward of our sow. ing is shown absolutely in our characters, rather than in our cir- cumstances.

God's reward to His children is not material prosperity, but the knowledge of Himself, and to know Him ie Life Everlasting. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God!

Our characters develop to their natural end. Just as death is the natural outcome of disense, so an evil character is the natural result of evil living.

In the parable of Dives and Lazarus,. the great gulf fixed be tween the two in the future world was not one of space, but of con- dition-a difference of character.

Repentance, or a change of mind, affects our destiny, because it lays the foundation for a different char actor.

call to take up our cross and follow In Lent, we hear again Christ's Him.. This does not mean that we try to mould ourselves after the pattern of One who was alive and is dead, but to surrender in loyalty of heart to One who was dead and is alive for evermore. It is His life which He communicates to us and by which we are saved.
