Dr. Gilbeú Peart, instrustor, traveled to

during the Christm,as holidays. Dr. and Mrs. Peart took â non-

Tahiti More

Advanced

Tahiti is a more advanced island, according to Dr. Peart, and it does hrave television, radio, telephones and lewspapers. Tahiti is under Flench conÌ.rol and is F¡a¡tce's headquarters for atomic bomb erperlments. Dr. Peart said that this is the

for rtourists. It is sunmer in Tahiti and also the rainY season. although there was little nain while he was there. It rras 90 detrees most of the otf-season

time with the humidity bet\¡¡cen 80 ancl 85 per cent, he said, but strong northeast tra.dewinds made

the wea.rther bearable. Dependent Orn Coconut

Copra, dried coconut meat, is the main source of income for the people on the islands. Dr. Peart said the poorer ÞeoÞle usu,âlly have a few coconut trees in their yards.

Breadfruit trees, ta¡o (from

which poi is made), sweel potatoes. fruits and fish are also im-

p(xtant in their economy. All

other food must be impoi'ted.

'Their homes are made of bamboo with thatch mofs. Dr. Peart

said that the houses are open on

all four sides and screened ìn. The Tahitians own 80 percent of their land, which makes it hrard for foreigners to buy land.

. Expensive Visit Dr. Peart said it was expensive to visit ,these islands, and some hotels cos¿ $50 a d'ay. IIe u'as surprised that there w,as no begging and tipping is not allowed. In all the islands except '-lahiti the transportation is mostly mo'tor scooters. There are cars in Tahiti.

Dr. Pearrt. said tùat the islanders were a caiefree peopls who

live for today and love childr'en.
