    FORTY YEARS FOR LABRADOR BY SIR WILFRED GRENFELL K.C.M.G., M.D. (OxoN.), F.R.C.S., F.A.C.S. WITH ILLUSTRATIONS LONDON HODDER AND STOUGHTON LIMITED 1934 FIRST PUBLISHED MARCH 1933 POPULAR EDITION OCTOBER 1934 COPYRIGHT 1 19191 BY WILFRED THOMASON GRENFELL COPYRlGHT, 19321 BY WILFRED GRENFELl. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO RRPRODUCIT. THIS BOOK. OR PARTS THEREOF IN ANY FORM Made tJttJd Pri•ted ;,. Great Britain. R. & R. CLARK, LIMITBD, Edi,./nwgh TO MY WIFE PREFACE A BIOLOGIST, watching one animal in his vivarium to see how an experiment turns out, expects to arrive nearer the truth as time elapses and the end draws near. Just so, spectators watch­ ing a runner in a race get more and more interested as the last lap approaches and the goal looms in sight. Then the runner's achievement is easier to appraise. Life's struggle, moreover, becomes increasingly interesting now that philosophers again permit us to regard results as dependent upon causes which are under the control of the individual runner to a very large extent. The title of this new record has been changed, to suggest that this is the last lap, and that deductions from the facts may be expected to be more mature and therefore more worth while, provided they are honest. The consciousness of having to live alongside the first venture into autobiography involved a kind of vivisection; for to have to tell the truth about one's real self carries with it the inescapable reproach of nudism, however salutary that may be for one's spiritual welfare, or however interesting to others.

    Kiribati titles from the Pacific Manuscripts Bureau collection Compiled April 2015 Short titles and some notes only. See PMB on-line database catalogue at http://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/pambu/catalogue/ for information sheets and detailed reel lists. PMB Manuscript series of Microfilms AU PMB MS 09 Title: Tapu: a tale of adventure in the South Seas (a novel) Date(s): After 1894 (Creation) Moors, Harry J. Extent and medium: 1 reel; 35mm microfilm Description: Harry J. Moors (1854-1926) was born in Detroit and died in Apia, Western Samoa. As an agent for the Hawaiian Board of Immigration, he made several voyages to the Gilbert Islands and Marshall Islands around 1880 to recruit labourers for Hawaii's sugar plantations. In 1883, he settled in Apia, Western Samoa, and became a successful trader and planter. Moors was closely associated with Robert Louis Stevenson during the novelist's five years (1889-1894) in Samoa and in 1910 he published a book of reminiscences entitled With Stevenson in Samoa. Moors stated in that book that Stevenson had once urged him to write down some of the 'wonderful stories' he had related to Stevenson about his early career. Moors acted on this encouragement, and after Stevenson died, he wrote two novels, of which Tapu: A Tale of Adventure in the South Seas is one. Neither of the novels was published. See also the Bureau's newsletter <1>Pambu, September 1968:4. The novel is based on Moors' experiences in the Gilbert and Marshall Islands as a labour recruiter for the Hawaiian Board of Immigration.

From the expansionist fever of the late nineteenth century to the redistribution of German territories immediately following the First World War, Canadians of varying backgrounds campaigned vigorously for Canada-West Indies union. Their efforts generated a transatlantic discourse that raised larger questions about Canada’s national trajectory, imperial organization, and the state of Britain’s Empire in the twentieth century. This dissertation explores the key ideas, tensions, and contradictions that shaped the union discourse over time. Race, nation and empire were central to this discourse.

    THE DE-COLONISATION OF THE AUSTRALIAN STATES by ANNE TWOMEY A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES APRIL 2006 2 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the status of the Queen in Australia in relation to the Australian States and the effect upon it of the enactment of the Australia Acts 1986. It uses hitherto confidential government documents to expose the true relationship between the United Kingdom, the Crown and the States and challenge prevailing assumptions. The thesis establishes that before 1986 the United Kingdom played a substantive, rather than a merely formal, role in the constitutional relationship between the States and the Crown. The ‘Queen of Australia’ was confined in her role to Commonwealth, not State, matters. The ‘Queen of the United Kingdom’ continued to perform constitutional functions with respect to the States, which were regarded as dependencies of the British Crown. This position changed with the enactment of the Australia Acts 1986 (Cth) and (UK). This thesis analyses the Australia Acts, assesses the validity of their provisions and contends that the Australia Act 1986 (UK) was necessary for legal and political reasons. The thesis concludes that the Australia Acts, in terminating the residual sovereignty of the Westminster Parliament with respect to Australia, transferred sovereignty collectively to the components of the federal parliamentary democratic system. Consistent with this view, it is contended that the effect of the Australia Acts was to establish a hybrid federal Crown of Australia under which the Queen’s Ministers for each constituent polity within the federation can advise her upon her constitutional functions with respect to that polity.
