FLOODED NORTH

'Plane's Special Trip

A special 'plane left Port Hedland for Pardoo station, owned by Mr. Frank Thompson, on Thursday morning. The machine left as the result of a special request. It was originally engaged for later in the week, but the heavy rains in the north make it imperative that the machine land and take off today before the flooded rivers come down, inundating the country and making landing and departure most difficult.
