UNDER SEA POST OFFICE
SURPRISE FOR STAMP COLLECTORS. Nassau has sprung a delightful surprise on stamp collectors by opening a post office tnidel- the sea! For a quarter of a century Mr John Williamson, an explorer, has been conducting scientific work in an underwater photosphere in the marine gardens off the island, taking motion pictures and making important observations in the submerged chamber.
The Bahamas Government has now decided that visitors are to be allowed to descend witlt Mr Williamson into the photosphere, and while looking at all the brightly-coloured fish they may write letters and post them on the spot! This undersea post office is called Sea Floor, Bahamas.
