HOUSING IN HOLLAND

AND GERMANY.

ENGLISH TOUR OF. INSPECTION.'

www.

Several representatives of Lan cashiro local authorities are to join the housing and town-planning tour to Holland and Germany under the auspices of the Garden Cities and Town Planning Association. This tour will afford a unique oppor tunity of seeing what the Dutch and Germans are doing for housing and town planning. Of special in terest at Amsterdam is the group of 13 houses where undesirable ten- ants are subject to special super- vision. The party will subsequently visit Frankfort, Cologne, and Esser. They will see the way that great sparta centres and stadia are being created in Germany, whereas we have to struggle in this country to raise the funds to purchase 030 playing field. A special study is to be given to the work of the Regional Planning Federation in the Ruhr, which has very wide and drastic powers in order to control future development and to ensure that the whole area is planned economically.

Competition in the "A" has so far been most interesting: The failure of the Chinese Recreation: bas given no incentive to other Clubs. But the Shield is still very open. Kowloon Cricket Club are confident of beating Hong Kong Cricket Club when they meet next Saturday, but they are less con- Aidant of their chances against the Chinese Recreation Club.

The local authorities, both in Holland and Germany, are giving exceptional opportunities to this British party to study their housing and town planning schemes. These will show that in foresight and in

The Outstanding Transcontinental Train

The New Olympian is unquestionably the finest train running on the most modern road in America. It has become so because of its advanced mechanical equipment, including roller bearings, its comforts and conveniences, its excellent dining car service and its courteous and helpful personnel. The Milwaukee Road has always responded to the public demand and now, as faster service to Chicago is needed, the New Olympian will operate on a new schedule:

This is 5 hours shorter time than the present schedule and will be effective about June 15, 1929.

They team has not as yet played a match, but on Saturday are down to play Univer- sity.

Only two matches were played in this Division last week. Apart from Hong Kong Cricket beating South China, Kowloon Cricket Club beat M.B.K. South China did very creditably against their formidable opponents and with a little luck might have secured & fourth set losing two sets after a prolonged struggle in each.
