WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.

The matter of aviation, formation of a flying club, the waterworks scheme and the currency question were among the matters discussed by Sir Samuel Wilson, Permanent Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies, during his six- day stay in the Colony. Interviewed immediately before their departure, Sir Samuel and Lady Wilson said they were greatly impressed with Hong Kong, "We think it is a most beautiful place" said Sir Samuel," "and what impresses me particularly is the rapid structural development that has been made. 1 can safely say that Hong Kong compares very favourably with other British Colonies."

The departure is fully reported in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

A serious motor smash occurred on Christmas night in Victoria Road, when Gunner C. Ball; stationed at Mount Davis forts, was gravely injured through being thrown from a car when it struck a tree.

He was returning to barracks from a picture house with two companions in a hired car when the driver is alleged to. have failed to take a bend properly, and the car, cutting. across the road-way, ran into a free.

A full story is given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

"A good Christmas" was the general anticipation in the leading stores of the Colony on December 24. Managers were optimistic and stated that business, on the whole, waS brisk. Business is not at a standstill by any means,” de clared the manager of the leading Chinese departmental store in Hong Kong. "Although figures are not better materially we have spent much in the interest of the cus tomers who are thronging the departments,"

A full Christmas story in than in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL

There is no phase of the life of the Colony or of China that does not receive attention in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL the weekly paper that YOU MUST ORDER NOW.
