Company meetings of an unusually important nature have been held during the week, at which several highly Interesting pronouncements have been made regarding the development of the Colony. Thus at the meeting of the Hong Kong and Kowloon Wharves & Godown Company it was forecast that within a certain specified date there would be larger berths constructed able to accommodate larger yessels than have yet been able to berth here.

At the Telephone Company meeting it was stated that negotiations are making progress for a trunk telephone line between Hong Kong and Canton, whilst an announcement was also made regarding the change locally to the automatic system of telephones.

At the Dairy Farm meeting reference was made to the satisfactory nature of the Colony's milk supply and to the immunity of the Colony's herd from rinderpest.

A progressive policy was also foreshadowed at the meeting of the Green Island Cement Company. There are numerous old residents of the Colony now at Home or else. where over the Seven Seas to whom these accounts of local Company meetings, as reported fully in the OVERLAND CHINA, MAIL, will greatly appeal. Send them an extra copy right away before the edition is sold out.

The OVERLAND CHINA, MAIL contains an exclusive account of the speeches at St. Paul's College Prize disiri. bution at which the announcement was made of a magni- ficent gift from the widow of a former Chinese Ambassador to Washington.

Progress is being made in regard to the Society for the Protection of Children, and a list of subscriptions and dona- tions (the latter including one of $10,000) is published in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

An official explanation has been furnished to the

Sports, as usual, take up the usual liberal space in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL, these being contributed by experts.

The latest outburst in the ranks of the Northern war lords, with the possibility of civil war looming on the horizon, is fully dealt with in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
