The Chairman then referred to the Glasgow Exhibition during which time he would be on home leave so that he could personally supervise the exhibits (valued at about £200 to £250) from Hong Kong, which would be placed in A special
pavillon for Crown Colonies,
The adoption of the Report and Accounts was proposed by the chairman, which was carried un- animously.
Owing to the departure and re- tirement of Mr. C. H. Benson and Mr. N. J. Perrin respectively, Mr. Peter Tod and Mr. F. A. Muckin- tosh were elected to fill their posi- tion on the Board of Directors.
Mr.
SECONDER'S SPEECH Addressing the meeting Lawrence Kadoorie said:-
I have read with much interest the second Annual Report of the Directors of this Association and cannot help remarking how the cfforts of the Association seem to have been confined almost exclu- tively to foreign travellers arriving in the Colony.
It has been my privilege to be here on such occasions as the late King's Jubilee in 1935 and the Coronation in May of this year. there On both these occasions was a very large influx of Chinese visitors from Canton and farther inland.
Though I have no figures at my dispusa., I cannot he.p thinking that the invisible export repre~ sented by these tens of thousands of visitors must have had a con- siderable influence on the Colony's revenue and on the takings of her traders.
I am right in saying I think that Hong Kong. more than any other place in this part of the

colourful and picturesque. For instance let me mention the Dragon Boat Festival, the charac- teristic natures of which are unique, and also the annual pil- grimage to the temple perched on the rocky cliff above Kowloon City Wall, where thousands of men and women wend their way to invoke the aid of a benign in- fluence for a larger measure of worldly gooda.
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM The Colony also boasts of such historical places the wailed City of Kowigon (a bit of ald China in a present day setting); Sung Wong Tol (The Emperor Sung Rock); Mong Fu Kwai (The #Amah Rock" with its poetic and romantic traditions at Bhaun); the Ching San Monastery at Castle with its "pallau," com- memorating the administration of
