MEETING OF CHINESE' SUB-COMMITTEE.
APPEAL" FOR FUNDS
The adjourned meeting of the Chinese sub- committee was held at the Tung Wa Hospital on Sunday when the principal subjectander discus Rion was the subject matter of the circular which it was proposed to issue inviting subscription towards the endowment fund. Previous to this item in the agenda being discussed a letter was read from the Private Secretary to the Governor having reference to the paint raised by Mr. He Fook at the last meeting in connection with tha refund of subscriptions in the event of the failure of the scheme to materialise. The fatter expressed His Excellency's approval of the appointment of a Chinese treasurer: While mol duwilling to entertain the idea that the University schema should fall through for fal ture of support, Sir Frederick felt overy can fidence that the money would be subscribed wherewith to provide the required endowment fund. But if, unfortunately, failure should attend their efforts the money subscribed would be returned. To that end he would cause a list of donors to be kept and all subscrip:ians, however small, would be Phillips Finest Smoking Mix-duly recorded.
