CHINESE RECREATION GROUND.

(Table XXIII.)

The balance to the credit of the fund at the end of the year was $6,916. The revenue from the rent of stalls was $1,332 and the expenditure $946.

At the end of December there was a destructive fire in which seven or eight of the stalls on the Recreation Ground were severely damaged. After some discussion as to the advisability of pulling down and re-erecting all the stalls that had suffered, it was decided merely to make good the damage done. This work is being carried out at an estimated expenditure of $350 which will be provided out of the balance of the fund at the end of the year.

CHARITABLE FUNDS.

(Table XXIV.)

The net income of the Passage Money Fund was $953 (including $229 transferred from the Registrar General's Office Charitable Fund when the latter fund was wound up), and the expenditure $1,701 which includes a special grant of $1,000 to the Eyre Diocesan Refuge. This grant was made on the recommendation of the Registrar General from the balance of the Passage Money Fund at the end of 1910 on the same terms as the grant of $3,250 mentioned in last year's report. The balance to the credit of the fund at the end of the year was thus reduced from $1,539 to $794.

The Registrar General's Charitable Fund has now, as stated in last year's report, been merged in a larger fund, known as the Brewin Charity. A sum of $37,700 was raised by subscriptions in 1910 and 1911 through the energy of a Committee of Chinese gentlemen, of which Dr. Ho Kai was chairman. The subscriptions were placed in the hands of the Tung Wa Hospital Committee which invested $36,500 in mortgages and opened an account at the Bank with the balance. The income from these investments, which amounted in 1911 to $2,605, is administered by the Registrar General in consultation with the leading Chinese gentlemen, and is to be devoted to the assistance principally of disabled workmen and widows. During 1911 pensions were granted, varying from $2 to $5 per month, to nine (9) deserving cases and gratuities of $15 and $25 were made to two others. (Table XXV.)
