Island Souvenirs Mrs. Will Connelly shows some of her souvenirs from her visit to Micronesia. The hat is of pandus leaves, a material used in making floor mats and other woven items. The rack on the table is a "Trukese telephone." A boy on the island of Truk who wants a date with a girl will use one of the carved sticks in the rack to poke through the thatched wall of hut and into a girl's hair.
