ence which the Koreans ever possessed, or seek to terrorise the natives into submission to their will. It is therefore all the more satisfactory to read in the Korea Review ani article which does not endeavour to prove that the Japanese are wholly beyond the pale, although there are many reservations which would seem to indicate that the author is not entirely convinced of the honesty of Japan's motives, or at all events that the financial schemes of Japan intended for Korea's benefit are entirely philanthropic, The article in question is entitled "Korean Finances" and it deals with a report by Mr Megata on the "State of progress of the reorganisation of finances of Korea." As in evidence that the critic did not, ap: proach the subject with an absolutely unbiassed mind we may quote one of the opening, sentences which runs "In our eagerness to find something which Japan has done to help the Korean people and offset in part the bitter oppression which is going along in other lines, we have hit upon this report as being the most likely place to

The carpenters then had their turn, and the halls were given over to them, to fix the stands for hanging the pic- tures and photos, and the tables for display. ing the other exhibits. From then on to the consummation of the project, the receiving committee, all of whom rendered such valu- able service, consisting of Mrs. J. Marchant, Mrs. Trenchard Davis, and Mrs. W. Bailey, with Messrs. Fung Wa Chuo, C. II. Gale, R. T. D. Sayle, R. Rain, and L. G. Bird, had a very busy, if not irksome, time. But as regards that it cannot be doubled that the knowledge of the complete success they have achieved will be, like virtue, its own reward. It is not our intention,, nor do we propose, here to inflict on our readers any platitudes regarding the manifold and manifest advantages accruing to a'country through these exbibitions, the utility of which, in these go ahead days, every school- boy and school girl understands just as well the ball has been set colling it is devoutly to as ourselves; but we would say that now that
be hoped that it will take an annual turn, so that the Hongkong Arts and Crafts Exhibi tion, originated in this year 1906, may be come a yearly institution. Apart from other, advantages, it has had that of bringing many talented amateurs out of their shells of bashfulness, and shows us how very much artistic talent has been practically dormant in our midst, which, like the flower of which the poet sings, has hitherto been "born to blush: unseen." Now that they art out of their shells let us hope an annual exhibition will keep them so. The French bave a very pithy saying that it is only the first step which cuts, or the first plunge which hurts; now the energetic president and committee have taken that first step, or plunge, and their experience should stand them in good stead, and enable them to organize next year's affair with but a fraction of the labour entailed on them for this premier pas. Undoubtedly if these exhibitions do become annual institutions, the day must surely come, in the fullness of time, when we shall see the entire interior of the City Hall called into requisition for the display of the ever-increas ing number of exhibits. As that is a com summation devoutly to be prayed for, wo would venture to suggest that in future ex hibitions the time of their duration may be extended from three days to at least one week, in order to afford an opportunity to people at the outputs, Cauton, Macao, Swatow, etc., an opportunity, if desirous of so doing, of visiting them.
