Where turtle soup comes from. Three of these pictures were taken by Mr G. W. Allsop, F.R.I.B.A., while on a visit to North-West Island, a dot of land on that thousand miles of marine wonder off the north-eastern coast of Australia—the Great Barrier Reef. One illustration shows a turtle laying eggs. The nest is a hole scraped in the sand, and a nest of eggs averages about a hundred. The second picture is of a roughly built enclosure in shallow water for keeping turtles alive until needed for the cannery. In the third illustration a pandanus palm, a variety common in the Pacific, is shown. Of our other two illustrations, the one on the left depicts the opening the hunting season in Warwickshire, with the hounds moving off from a country house. On the right the Duke and Duchess of York are leaving Lincoln Cathedral after attending a thanksgiving service for the restoration of the building.
