THE CHINA MAIL,

The need for a responsible caretaker who would be in imme- diate charge of the grounds and buildings of the University is be- coming more and more pressing. The proper care of suck .s con- siderable estate involves frequent inspection and unremitting atten tion. All the work now falls on the Registrar and Vice-Chancellor.

257 The health of the students was good and the general standard of discipline well maintained.

The increasing number of women students is making the need for an adequate and proper- ly equipped hostel for them an ur- gent necessity. During the year

under review a campaign to col- lect money for a women students' hostel was launched at a meeting organised by Mrs. Southern - at Government House. This meeting was addressed by Miss Maud Royden. An influential commit- tee is now trying to collect the necessary funds which are con- siderable.

Conclusion

The University goes on. Ita popularity and influence are grow- ing, especially in the Colony of Hong Kong, and its general high standard of study and discipline is being steadily maintained and In some respects enhanced. More over the leading commercial houses of Hong Kong are now an- xious to vecure University graduates and to give them res- ponsible work and good openings. At the moment this demand ex- ceeds the supply. Through all the recent years of financial stress the University has done more than pay its way. for in addition to meeting all its current expenses it has had to set aside every year considerable sums against bad in- vestment debts, to say nothing of the payments due to the Univer-

But the University started its HONG KONG HOTEL VISITORS life on a financial basis which was impossibly inadequate, and it is now trying to carry on the work which the Hong Kong Legislature- set it to do on the strength of funds which are wholly insuffi- cient. Its staff is seriously under- paid; its accommodation is inaries quate, its library poor and its equipment, especially in the Faculty of Arte, indifferent. Meanwhile the strain of poverty Miss H.

"How did you sleep?

You certainly look fine!"

A physician write

in the "General Practitioner":

"The insomnia of long, duration kad produced great der bility; treatment of every kind had no result. Sanatogen, two teaspoonfuls, thrice daily, "wai prescribed and ot the end of a foru night the improve ment was marked & ileep was normal.".

She: "How did I sleep ?—If I look the way I feel, you ought to see that I slept like a babe. Do you know, nowadays, I simply love life the whole long day, from the time I get up to the time I go to bed,"

He: "Well, you look as fresh as a rosebud. -and that is flattering language between an old married couple.”

She: "Thank you. And you sleep better yourself. What a wonderful change Sanatogen has made in both of us. Like the flow of new life through one's veins.“

Sanatogen infuses into the cells of blood and nerves exactly those elements-phos phorus and albumin-from which bodily health and nerve strength are derived. Over 24,000 physicians have written en- thusiastic letters about the success they obtained with Sanatogen.
