MEETING OF CHINESE AT GOVERNMENT HOUSE,

There was a large gathering, of Chinese gentlemen at Government llouse on Friday when ways and means of promoting the study of Chinese at the Hong Kong Univer-

After speeches had been made by Dr. Lai. Tai si and the Hon. Sir Shouson Chow, H.E. The Governor addressed the meeting in Chinose.

A translation of His Excellency's speech is as follows:-
