SPECIAL COLOURED SUPPLEMENT with PICTURES of all local events
is given free in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS.
The Weakly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
The reign of cricket towers over all other local news, owing to the beginning of the series of Interport cricket Amiches between Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Malaya. In the Grst match, Malaya v. Shanghai, the former had the advantage of play on the first day, but on the second it was impossible to resume owing to heavy showers of rain. "How. ever, the one day's play is tersely described in this issue of the Ourland China Mail.
Other sporting fixtures of interest were the visit of the French tennis stars and the closing of the lawn bowla season at the Taikoo Recreation Club and the Craigengower Cricket Club.
Coming to local events of interest, pride of place must be given to the sixtieth birthday celebrations at the Dincessan Boys' School, at which stirring speeches were made by His Excellency the Governor and others. His Excellency also delivered an interesting lecture to the English Associa tion during this week.
China, as usual, has loomed lange in the cable news, the movements of the Ironsides and of the "rebels" in the North against the Central Government being reported in detail. There has likewise been more activity on the Russo-Chinese border.

Mr. Shaw said that the Club bad been operating on a loss for the last three years, and he would therefore ask the President and Committee to consider seriously whether it was worth going on with it. He thought that people who were coming to the Colony now could naturally not have been in the war, and that as the Club had been functioning for the last
