Mr. C. Crofton, Mrs. Hardman, Mr. G. She, Mr. Ashton Hill, Mr. 8. Jox, Miss Mow Fung, and Mrs. Scotcher were elected to stitute the Church Committed and the last four named were also ap- pointed delegates to the Diocesan Conference.
The chairman in his address sald that next month would see the close of the experimental period of eighteen months and the church would then seek its constitution as a separate Parish and electoral roll. It was hoped to obtain the services of the Ilov. L. L. Nash of the Diocesan Boys' School during the absence on leave of the present priest, (the speaker) and Mr. George She had already been wel comed as a Diocesan Lady Reador.
The new church site in Waterloo Road had been granted by
the Government and this year should witness the beginning of building operations.
The new church's activities had included the Sunday School with 50 children, the Guild of Martha and Mary, the Men's Fellowship, the 12th Kowloon Wolf Cub Pack under Mra. Easterbrook; and the V.D.M.A. Group, besides purely church functiona.

The accident occurred at 8,05 p.m., when Col. Bird was driving to his home at Shek O. The car smashed the concrete standards at both ends of the "island" as well as the warning light in the centre.
When the car hit the first stand- ard, which acts as a reflector, the Chinese boy was flung out of his sent on to the road,

The car careered on, the central light and did not stop until it had passed over the whole length of the "island".
The fact that the boy was thrown on to the roadway probably saved his life, for the lamp in the centre of the "island" crashed through the hood and fell where he had been sitting.
Fortunately, there was no one on the "island" at the time of the accident and there was little traffic in the immediate vicinity.
In a report made to the Wanchal Police Station, Col. Bird said he lid not see the red light until the car hit the "island".
