After half-time the Navy took the lead with a pretty shot by Lt-Surg. after Bolton. Shameen รวมด brought the scores level again with a shot by Osmund. All this time the rain was steadily making the ground sloppy, and Lay, who had been playing an excellent game in
rolling shot, lost his balance, and before he had time to recover the Cicala scored with an open goal.

SHAMEEN FOOTBALL
Cicala beat Shameen by the Odd Goal
[From Our Own Correspondent.) Canton, Sunday
In a good hard game yesterday afternoon the Cienia beat Shameen in the League, by 8 goris to 2. Shameen, who did not have their strongest team out, nevertheless gave the Cicala a good run for their win, having the better of the game by far until a heavy fall of rain came down, which gave the lighter team the advantage as they were better able to keep their fest on the slippery ground.
With a lead of 1-0.it looked as if Shameen were going to put on moro. The Navy, however, were awarded a penalty from a sand- wiching of one of their men,-in unfortunate decision-and they equalised. Shameon after this had numerous chances to score and -came very near to doing so. Then

A writer in the fourth century described this Forum as a work "which even the gods can not help admiring:" two centuries later Pope Gregory the Great prayed that the soul of the man who had built so wonderful a monument might not be doomed to perdition, and in a vision he was told of Trajan's salvation.

Corrado Ricci, determined to find the building of Apollodorus, started work on this site. In two years some 18,000 square metres of earth were removed, and last autumn the greater part of Trajan's market was uncovered, showing rowWB of shops or tabernae. The whole structure is of brickwork, while the intela and threshold of the shops are of travertine. On the lower storey are eleven shops; a flight of steps at each end of the hemicycle leads to the second level with twenty-two shops; and above is third tier which adjoins the Via Biberntics lined with wine-shops.

A Forum of Fascism
Thus a marvellous work has been planned and is being carried out under one's very eyes. By clear- ing away a rabbit-warren of houses, and
even palaces, suppressing trams, and making new roads for congested trafic, Mussolini will be restoring the ambitions of the Caesars, who each one in turn tried to connect the public buildings in a continuous chain, Trajan sought to link the Imperial Fora with that quartor of Rome 'containing the Flaminian Circus, the Theatres of Balbus, Pompey and Marcollus, and other temples and porticos. Musso- lini is also adding to the Fora with one dedicated to Fascismo, to be adorned with a giant monolith ‹ of white marble and numerous sym- bolic statues.
But, perhaps, the plan just an- nounced of using the great market of Trajan as a flower market will delight and charm many people quite a much as the more ambitious schemes for beautifying Rome.
