Knows The Way

pOODFELLOWSHIP is the most \J striking characteristic of W. L». Pellew, enquiry officer of the Wellington City Council Traffic Department, and his genial bonhomie is m no small measure responsible for the" success he enjoys m his particular sphere. Although Pellew now spends the greater portion of his time working out traffic problems, it has not always been thus. With him it has been amatter of gravitating intc the most suitable occupation, and m having a fingei on the throbbing- pulse oi the capital city's surging traffic he has shown his versatility.W.L.P. graduated to his present position from the police force, and his change of calling was not an illadvised one, for he has held down his present position for the past eight years. Born m that picturesque Hawkes Bay town, Waipawa, Pellew, like all the men of that province, has been actively associated Avith sport. When the big guns started to boom on the other side of the world, he hopped m to do his bit, seeing service m Egypt iind France. Perhaps his experience at the front, dodging big gun shells, gave him the idea how the traffic m Wellington's tortuous streets should be guided. He certainly has an uncanny sense of direction. *
