A WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.
The inadequacy of the present Post Office facilities in. Kowloon, was stressed at the annual meeting of the Kowloon Residents' Association held in St. Andrew's Church Hall on February 26. Criticism of Government's tardiness In carrying out necessary public work on the Peninsula was also voiced. The Chairman (Mr. F. C. Mow Fung) said 'that disappointment would be felt that there was not a more definite and substantial response to representations regarding the inadequacy of the Kowloon Hospital, the growing need of a new Post Office building, the more effec- tive policing of Kowloon Tong, and the provision of fire- protection for rural districts.
A full report of the meeting is published in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. ·
At the annual meeting of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking: Corporation held on February 27, the Chairman (the Hon. Mr. C. S. Gordon Mackle) referred to the general world depression, and touched upon conditions all over the Far East. A detailed report of the proceedings is chronicled in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

On February 27, Communists raided Breaker-Point Lighthouse, at Swatow, and carried off a European,' a Russian, two Chinese women, four children, and a cook. The light-house is situated on a headland 30 miles south- west of Swatow. A report of the outrage is given in the OVERLAND CHINA MĂIL.
Weather conditions, the worst experienced for many years, by racegoers, attended the closing programme of the Annual Meeting held at Happy Valley on February 27. The course was a veritable mud bath, and as was only to be expected times were not good, and the sport not exciting.
In spite of these conditions, there was a good crowd pre- sent, Cash Sweep figures were substantial, and dividends were favourable.
The most exciting event of the day, was witnessed in the last race, when in the final gallop, Lobster Bay (Mr. A. A. R. Botelho up) won by a short head to pay the best dividend of the day, $163.70. The meeting is fully reported: in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
