In Kowloon there has, during the year, been a considerable amount of Whooping Cough and Mumps with a small outbreak of Measles in September.

The Kowloon British School has been visited regularly and the health of the children reported on, the number of them suffering from defective teeth being particularly noted. During the latter part of the year the German Blind Home at Kowloon City was placed under my care.

The health of the Police Force has been satisfactory. The stations on the mainland, and those at Cheung Chau and Tai O have been visited at different times during the year. Tai Po Station again stands out as the most unhealthy station in the New Territories owing to the prevalence of Malaria in the district. Intra-muscular injections of Quinine and prophylactic doses of the drug in mixture, however, kept the figures down to approximately the same as 1913 despite the fact that the past year was undoubtedly a worse Malarial year than the previous one.

The following table gives the number of admissions for "Malaria" and "other diseases" to the Government Civil Hospital from the Police Stations on the mainland :-
