We hope that if Truman does go to meet Stalin he takes with him more than an umbrella, and that after he leaves we hope Stalin won’t march somewhere further west.

A pftrty of Wanganui fishermen at Taupo missed their morning tea in rather peculiar circumstances. They were taken out by boat to their location, all the gear, as they thought, safely aboard. They were left marooned, as it were, out at the Delta, or some such place that figures prominently in New Zealand’s history. With that gnawing pain at morning tea time, they opened up their provision case to find in It a rather wonderful set of lingerie, as one noted fisherman put it, a veritable trousseau. They found it difficult to cure the morning tea ache with dainties of that type, but were consoled at the thought that the girl, whose case had become tangled up with the lives at fishermen, would find it very hard indeed to get dressed up in ham sandwiches.
