A Chinese male, aged about 28, on Wednesday died at the Government Civil Hospital from shock as the result of accidentally falling from tram car No. 31 while it was in motion in Des Voeux Road. He died from shock at 10 p.m., the same day.

A Chinese boy, aged 10 years, was on Wednesday removed to the Gov ernment Civil Hospital suffering from injuries received through talling from the third floor of No. 17, Peking Road, Kowloon. He is in a critical condition.

And if Britain has been able to accomplish so much in the face of formidable difficulties, extortionate labour demands and ca' canny polices, what may she not hope for if these difficulties were lessened, through bitter experience? As regards public and private expenditure, do we aat all know what a drag this prodigality puts on the wheel of economic progress?
