The Australian Journal
Prominent among writers in the March issue of “The Australian Journal,” is Hermon Gill, M.8.E., who, after serving through the war as a Lieut.-Commander with the R.A.N., was commissioned to write the naval section of the Australian war history. Appropriately enough, Mr Gill’s Journal contribution is an unusual sea story. Another star item is a fascinating an exciting yarn by Ames Johnson, dealing with the Indian cobra, and showing what con happen when that deadliest of snakes meets its natural foe, the tiger. Other popular contributors include the adventurous Keith Douglas Young, who continues his life story with the account of a rough voyage to New Guinea, and R. G. Perry, the Australian detective story writer. Romance and humour provide a nice balance, and the entire issue, with its excellent illustrations, offers remarkable entertainment value for sixpence.
