DUKE ADDS NAMES
TO WEDDING LIST
Coronation Week Finds
Windsor and Fiancee Busy
With Final Plans.
Py the Associated Press.

MONTS, France, May l0.-The
Duke OF Windsor began the British
Empires coronation week today busy
with final plans for the wedding he
chose instead Of the British crown.
Windsor and Mrs. Wallis Simpson,
for whose love he gave up the throne
to his brother, George vi, added
few names to the short list of selected
guests who will attend the wedding
ceremony.
The list was understood to be one
of the last details of the simple we'd
ding plans being worked out by the
former King Edward VIII and his
fancee. Plans for the ceremony will
be announced soon after the Wednes-
day coronatlon-which was originally
planned for Edward
The opening of the week found
Windsor settling down to the daily
routine of country gentleman, oc-
cupying his time mostly with golf
within a strengthened ring Of guards
placed on the alert by a series of
threatening crank letters.
How the duke will spend corona
ton day has not been disclosed, but
frequent sessions at the radio during
recent evenings strengthened the be-
lief he will be among the listeners to
the coronation broadcasts.
Yesterday Windsor received two un-
identified friends who arrived by air
from England after he had talked by
long distance telephone with King
George and Queen Mother Mary.
1t was not known whether their
conversations concerned the forth.
coming wedding or the coronation.
Yesterday was hairdressing day at
the Chateau de Cande. where Windsor

Three-Minute
Journeys
By Temple Manning

More than one round-the-
world cruise is going to put in
at Suva this year, especially
those tours whose itineraries
have been changed because Of
hostilities in the Far East. So
now we find Australia, New
Zealand and the little-visited
islands of the South seas about
to play host to a cargo OF
happy travellers out to see Won
drous sights.
And the thought of visiting
the Fiji islands is causing
plenty of excitement. for Fiji
has a far-off sound, the sort of
place of which one hears and
reads about, but never expects
to see.
Suva, the port of Fiji, is a
sprawling town of low houses
and buildings, which are mostly
administrative. Then come
native huts, which spread back
to the tropical jungle. typical Of
islands of the South seas. AS
for the Fiji Islanders. well, once
they were horrible synonyms for
barbarianisrn, for cannibaliSm
and a few other little habits and
characteristics.
But today they are about the
most intelligent and efficient Of
all the South sea races. Their
chiefs are educated, sit in the
legislative council and take part
in the government.
But, despite this veneer, the
Fiji islanders still delight in
ancestral dances and ceremon'
les. At the call Of chief. they
will gather from the jungle
depths and nearby islands OF the
group to take part in a primitive
barbaric show.
There are grand tours out Of
Suva, especially now that the
new overland road has been
completed. The first section
runs to Ellington from Suva and
offers grand mountain and bush
scenery and, Of course, native
villages galore. The Wainibuka
River is really beautiful, and
part Of its charm is in watching
the natives shoot the rapids.
