to progress towards that goal at which we all aim international pence and prosperity.

I have seen it stated that the | healthy growth of the Rotary move, ment has helped to establish more firmly the custom of fending to. gether, and then listening to more or less coherent speeches.. Well, I ean honestly say that, having rend in the Press most of the addresses onde at this Club, I have no doubt as to their coherency; and 1, con- gratulate its officers on having sue- ceeded in obtaining such a remark- able list of speakers and addresses. I am not presumptuous enough to attempt to say anything more about Rotary, beenuse I am quite sure, that you all know more about it than I do. Its principle of Service not self "is a high ons, and I congratulate this club on its carrying out the principle of "ser- vice" in contributing to the estab- |lishment of "caildren's playgrounds in this Colony. It was a most ad- mirable thought, and has, I feel sure, been greatly appreciated.

On behalf of my fellow guests and myself, I sincerely, thank the Club for its hospitality to us to night.

I now have very much pleasure in presenting the Charter, and in doing so to propose the health of the Rotary Club of Hong Kong in the firm belief that the great succes achieved in its first year will con- tings. (Avplause).
