A POOR SEASON

(By "ADREM”)

CLUB DE RECREIO, although they lost the senior cricket championship to Kowloon Cricket Club, have no reason to be dissatisfied with their performances in the League season just concluded.

even

If anything their form was more impressive than it was last sea- son and their comparative lack of suc- cess can only be attributed to the fact that local batsmen had become used to that devastating bowling combination of E. L. Gosano and H. L. Ozorio,

Feeling Run-Down?

Many ills resulting from an im- poverished state of the blood, if taken in time, readily yield to treatment- the right treatment-which consists of rehabilitating the blood and making it pure and plentiful, by taking a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, besides building up the blood and nerves, improve the appetite, aid digestion, stimulate the functions of the various organs, thus increasing strength and vitality.

The good effects of this world famous: tonic is early apparent in a general feeling of well-being and with con- tinued treatment there is a rapid re- covery of normal health.

Probably the performance with, which they have most reason to be satisfied. was the dismissal of the powerful Re- creio team for only 99, one of the two occasions that the Portuguese team failed to top the century.
