The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.

The Colony at last knows who is to be its new Governor. Those rash enough to enter the realms of prophecy have been confounded, for unfamiliarity with the Malayan Civil Service caused them to overlook Sir William Peel, Chief Secretary to the F.M.S. Government, who has been appointed to succeed Sir Cecil Clementi. The appointment is fully dealt with in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

The Colony has been favoured by the visit of two tourist liners the Empress of Australia and the Belgenland-and the movements of the visitors are dealt with from an original angle that cannot fall to appeal to Home readers of the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

Tuberculosis and malaria have come in for some stten- tion- the former at a meeting of the Sanitary Board and the latter in the course of a lecture delivered by the Hon. Dr. Wellington, Director of Medical and Sanitary Services. Full accounts are published in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

China again comes into the limelight owing to the prospect of another civil war in the North and the con Linuance of the civil war in the South, in which the Cantonese are engaged in fighting the Ironsides and the Kwangsi leaders. In connection with the latter it is rumoured that Marshal LI Chai-eum, once the idol of Canton, has been sent to mediate and that he is actually in Hong Kong. The latest developments are fully recorded in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

In the realm of education Prize Days have been held at the Queen's College, the Diocesan Girls' School, and St. Mary's Girls' School, interesting addresses being delivered at all. The respective lists of prize winners are given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL:
