It is understood that he styled these modern drections as of no more valus than old Fort Canning, and Fort Canning is no use (axcept to local photo- graphers and ladies who shetoh) beyond affording shelter to its garrison from the routher. The report has apparently been pigeon-holed Quite recently Singapore has been visited by one of the abloat young floors of the scientific corps, ak out by the War Office to make further chaorta tions. With the warning which is likely to be soon forced on our observation, the strongest language will not be too severe to apply to the
