The poor are always with us, and yesterday the citizens of the Colony gave a good illustration of their interest in these unfort-J. unates by spending lavishly at the Al Fresco Fete held by that meritorious institution. the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. Yes terday's was the thirtieth annual fixture of its kind held under the auspices of the Society, and it is interesting to record. that each year the fete grows in popularity and yields are in receipts. Had Charles Dickens lived in Hong- kong at the present day he would have found plenty of work for his pen. Scenes such as be, above most writers, has become most fanous for depicting abound in our midst. Beneath the outward pomp and prosperity of the Colony there exists another sphere of life in which poverty, misery despair go hand in hand and are daily fought by a brave band of workers. This is poverty of a type such as could only exist in a city peopled by Asiatics, though unfortunately it is not confined to them. The worth of the Society is humanitarian and unsectarian in scope, and its members are carrying a good and
great task. In former years! it num- bered many British and foreign residents amongst its members, but gradually they have left the Colony and their places have not been filled by the new arrivals, until at the present time the whole of the work is carried on by the Portuguese members.
His Exellency Sir Edward Stabbs was on the grounds las: evening and was keenly enquire ing about the scope and activities of the Society.
