similar to those printed en the registration-form of the Busĵau (sos para:48), with only this difference, that while the services of the Bureau are given absolutely free, the new Society will require a small entrance-fee and a monthly subscription. It is conceivably impossible for the Bureau to be rim en a per- manent basis at Government expense,and therefore some such organisation as the one prejected seems to be the best alternative.

There is nearly as much need for the promotion of a spirit of understanding and sympathy between the guild-leaders and the ordinary guild-members, as between employers and employees, I have received a very interesting suggestion from Mr. Hon Man-wai en this subject. Mr. Hon is himself the head of the powerful Chinese Engineers Quild, but he maintains close personal relations with the lower ranks. His suggestion is that there should be a development of night-schools for members of the guilds, to be run enly by men of proved leyalty and approved qualifications, whose work should be partly voluntary. It is my desire to help towards the realimtion of this very worthy object, as soon as normal conditions are restored.

Importance of Keeping Pleasure-

"sorts Open.

As soon as confidence had been somewhat restored, the first thing missed by the Chinese of the upper and the lower class seemed to be the Chinese theatre and the tea-house res- pectively. I had known of the fondness of the Chinese for these pleasure-resorts, but their bankering after them as evinced during the Strike, had a foros which surprised me. The Govern- ment realising this, requested Mr. Chow Shou-son and me to make special efforts to get the theatres and tea-shops re-open, and thanks to the personal efforts of Mr. Li Yau-tsun, we succeeded

in having the latter resume business after four or five day's

work.
