(United Press Assn.—Copyright.) A. & N.Z.C.A. Special Correspondent (Received Jan. 20, 11 f. m ) H.M.S, RENOWN, Thursday. Gazing a;ong the Caribbean Sea, which is providing a welcome sight or land, though it he too far distant for * topographical study, presently we shall be passing Hayti. There is great activity on the Renown in preparation for the arrival at Jamaica, where a great welcome has been arranged, including dressed and manned warships. Their Highnesses will have a busy time with tours, lunches, dinners, garden parties, ana receptions. The passage of the Panama Canal will also be the occasion for ceremonial calls and functions, demonstrations of American friendship. A fortnight’s contact with the Duke and Duchess emphasises their exceeding charm. The Duke is an enthusiast at work or play. Ho begins the morning with strenuous exercise, participates in conferences, studiously reads, and always attends the ship’ concerts and cinemas, and enjoys the interludes of community singing, in which ho and the Duchess join heartily.— Sun.
