THE AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL
REVIEW OF THE JULY ISSUE Highlight of the July issue of The Australian Journal is “The One Weak Link,” a powerful and touching story of the Inland by William Hatfield, the famous Australian author of many novels and travel talks. Hatfield who has just returned from a long stay in England, is now living in Western Australia. If his present mood continues, he is not likely to leave Australia again for a long time. Lack of sunshine, more than anything else,- drove him out oi England. Long years spent in Central aiifi North Australia made him quite unable to tolerate the grey skies, bitter winds, and drizzling rain of the Old Country, while he confesses the rather cramped and conventional mode of existence played. havoc with nerves attuned to the casual, free-and-easy life of the Outback.'.. But the July issue is by no means a case of Hatfield first and the rest nowhere. There are also excellent yarns by Weston Martyr, Richard Keverne, Osmar E. White, Joyce West-, Rex Grayson, Cam Woodford, John Gloag, Beryl Gray, and many others, together with the usual children’s and domestic section. A delightful camera study adorns the cover, and Hie interior layout is right up to the standard of the contents. How The Australian Journal is produced for-sixpence is a mystery in itself.
