AN APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC The Rev. N. V. Halward (Com-Letters missioner) then addressed a fer- vent appeal to the Hong Kong public to support the Boy Scout movement here. He pointed out the good work done by the Boy Scouts Association among the boys of Hong Kong and hoped that some tonerous person would help the Boy Scents to reduce a deficit of $8,000 in their accounts.

The Com- missioner then thanked those who stated that by is a mum of over $500 had been raised.
