CHARITY GAME FOR MUL

"KOWLOON ». EAST SURREYS,

A very good game between the above teams was played on the Railway ground as Kowloon. Wood was absent from the Kowloon goal, but his substitute, Durand, played a wonderful game, some of his saves being extremely brilliant.. The East Surreys were at full strength with the exception of Charlesworth, Williams turning out on the right wing.

The afternoon was fae and ‘a"good number of spectatora witnessed the match. Col. F. S. Moningus Bates and Officers of the East Surreys watched the game from the stand. Although the East Surreys went down by three clear goals, there was nct that difference in the tears. Douglas was not safe in goal," although he had little chance to stop the shots registered against him. The East Surreys backs were unsafe and several times miskicked when pressed by Kow- loon rushing forwards. With a little luck, the East Surreys should have been two goals up at the interval, and the way. Durand got in the way of a piledriver from Humberstone was a marvel.

The East Surreys kicked off, and the first half went greatly in their favour. They did everything except get-the-ball into the net. Hayes sent over from the wing and Jordan cleared. Humberstoar was pulled up for offside close in and the East Surreys coming through again, Humberstone shot wide. Mackleworth centred and Cheeseman fested Durand, Butler sent in tensor which look- ed a certain aprer but Durand was applauded for a brilliant save.; Douglas

came

out and picked up from a forward pass by Spary." Wheeler broke up a dangerous movement and Durand cleared from Humberstone. Cooper gave away a corner but the flag kick was cleared by Bristowe. Pile sent across the goalmouth out of play. Butler swung over to the right and Williams returning to the cent:t, Humberstone headed in and Durand pulled the ball down from almost under the bar. Kow- loon defence let in Butler, who had a fine chance to open the score but sent over the top. Wheeler gave away a corner and Mitchell, receiving from the flag kick, shot wide. Pile ran well in but delayed his shot and McGreavy. cleared at the exponie of 器 corner.

Blue, in the three shades mentioned, is to be the leading colour because it tones so well with other colours. Other shades, that read more like a dress-msker's than a hatter's list, are Bordeaux, Chili and azalea, three red tones; cedarwood and buff, two brownis; and lilac, storm grey, chamots, and sage.

Some of the lighter colours will be used for relieving the darkness of navy, brown, and dark grey, and wall-flower shades will be greatly used because of their warmth and cheerfulness
