The author remains anonymous ("No Names, No Pack Drill" he quotes apologetically) but his work loses nothing in its attractiveness. In an amusing dedicatory notice, he promises that no mention will be made of junks, sunsets on the Peak. "and other such Oriental usages 65 do normally distinguish To Gute Booko", and the promise is fulfilled. This, however, does not cramp the author's style; If anything it makes more pungently witty, the subjects which he both rhymes about und illustrates with delightful carica- tures, Among other things, he has amusing thrusts ot the Royal Hong- kong Golf Club, the bowling-alley, lawn bowls, and the opening of the U.S.R.C. swimming pool. Every- thing is completely localised, which makes it all the more readable and enjoyable.
The booklet is admirably produced. by Ye Olde Printerle, and is about the best $1.50 worth of entertain- ment conceivabic.
