The handing over was accompani. ed by as little formality as possible and the manner of its presentation indicated the spirit behind the gift. The spokesman for the Chinese Chamber feelingly referred to the fact that a muddy flat, created and developed into a city of stately piles by 80 or 90 years of labour, had been preserved, in spite of the fact that it had recently to go through a crisis undreamt of 88 or 49 years ago, by the public-spirit.Barbel ed services of the S.V.C., which
