Naval Huts For Sale

NEPTUNE DEPOT NOW SURPLUS

A number of huts and lookout towers erected for the Navy during the war on one of the South Neptune Islands are to be sold, and tenders will close on July 23. The island is the one on which the lighthouse stands. The situation is bv no means suit

able for a tourist resort except for those who desire a 'Robinson Crusoe'' kind of life, and home seekers will not find their problem solved unless they are prepared to remove the structures and this will involve chartering a special boat for the purpose. It was near this spot, but on one of the north islands that the cutter Venus was wrecked recently.
