RESOLUTIONS FOR TO-MOR. ROW'S MEETING.

The Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce, following the lead of many similar institutions in the British Empire, including the Chambers at London, Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham, is considering preliminary steps to- wards obtaining incorporation un der the Hong Kong Companies Ordinances.

The matter has been under con- sideration and a meeting of the Hong Kong Chamber is to be held to-morrow" afternoon at the City Hall when the preliminary steps will be taken and two important resolutions will be submitted on be half of the Committee.

Reasons For The Step... The reasons for the step are set out in a circular to members of the Chamber which states:-

It will be within the knowledge of members that many Chambers of Commerce are incorporated under Company Law, the object being to limit the liability of members with regard to any claim that may be inade against the Chamber. Mein |bers of an unincorporated Society are liable to an unlimited extent: a ereditor can take action against any members he thinks most likely to be able to pay him.

with the assistaneey of Govern ment. The school has worked hard to achieve this result and Government has assisted substan tially. Apart from the means by which it has been raised, I can see in the future all the benefit that hundreds of girls will derive here from healthy exercise and encour- agement of the team spirit. Girls of the twentieth century are very fortunate, In former generations the enjoyment of fresh air sad games appeared to ibe limited chiefly to boys.
