Lady Beatty (TOUR) Finds Island Of The Lost

Where Dolls-Even The 12 Women

In White

MARVELLED AT THEM' ELEVEN THOUSAND miles away from Great Britain lies Makogai, dread island of the Fiji group., Only five times in fifteen years have white people set foot on it. Eight hundred lepers live there. It is the island of the lost.

·

Yet for eight days lovely American-born Countess Beatty, wife of Earl Beatty, lived, ate and slept on the island and thought nothing of it.

It never occurred to her that be she might catch the dread dis- ease for which there is no certain cure, or that she might never go back to civilisation.

She is a fatalist about such things. Back in London she said nothing about her experiences. Then war broke out, her husband rejoined his ship in the Navy, She turned her house into a naval hospital.

Hor Promise

Christmas came and went, and suddenly she remembered a promise; a promise made exactly a year ago in Makoga to a mother superio that she would try to help the brave, little band of twelve nuns and one British doctor who live there.

For this istand is British-yet only New Zealanders seem to remember its existence,

Lady Beatty told of

of her ventures there, "My husband and I were on a world tour when we came across Makogal," she said.

"What touched my heart to tears was the sight of the children's word in the hospital on the island. At! one end were large photographs of Princess Elizabeth and Princess Mar- garet Rosic.

"Every morning those children put a fresh rose in a jam for underneath the pictures.

"More heart breaking still was the fuct that each of those seventy children had a doll which they In- sisted on calling either Margaret Rose or Elizabeth.
