Now you can see Erich Maria: Remorque's world-famous book in allits emotional power, transferred to the talking screan with an amazing fidelity without one lata of com. promise to "movie" tradition. Come and see the human side of war as sean through the ayos of Youth.
War is not all shot and shell!
more often it is the drama of simple human omotions in strongo sur- roundings. The Incident of the French girls from ocross the canal is just ONE of the thousand laci- dents faithfully pictured.

The Association was started in 1917 with but 165 members, and with a membership fee of $826. Since then the increase, both in membership and subscription, has been extremely en- couraging, and this year we have at tained the unprecedented record of having some 6,000 members and a The membership fee of $0.300. Association's activities embrace athleties of practically all Jnds. But its chief interest ned concern is. and must be, Football.
Whilst we can take legitimate pride in the prowess of our players, we must never forget the deep debt of gratitude which is due, not only by our players but by Chinese footballers in genera, to our English friends who might fly be called the pioneers of the game in the Colony, and who, from the Ume when the Chinese first took Football, gave freely and un-

And so we find the repre- sentatives of so many Clubs present to-night to rejoice with us in our victories.

Keeping Sport Clean.
The abiding interest in Football is due to the fact that it is a manly game requiring the combination, in the highest degree, both of physical en- durance and of kiti. So long te China can produce Sne athletes like the present generation of Chinese, to them football must always exercise a powerful appeal. But its appeal and a popularity will continue only no long as it is kept a clean sport.

Proud as I am of their victories, I am prouder still of the fact that they do pussess the characteristics of true aportamanship. And these characteristics can not per haps be better described than in the oft quoted words of a well known poel:.
To set the Cause above renown, To love the Game beyond the prize, To honour, as you strike him down, The foe who comes with shining
eyes,--
To count the life of battle good. And dear the land that gave you

And dearer yet the brotherhood, That binds the brave of all the
