The Hong Kong Club did manage to raise a sido for the match with the Navy, but they only had five of their first team playing, if one does not count Divatt. He is quite good enough for the first one would think, but I believe that as a rule he prefers the second team.

LOCAL BOXING.

MORRIS AND WARNES TO MEET AGAIN.

Signalman Morris, H.M.S. Suffolk, and A.B. Warnes, H.M.S. Hermes, have signed articles for a return con teat for the welterweight champion- ship of the Colony at the Theatre Royal on December 23, when the Hong Kong Boxing Association are holding their second tournament of the season.

The most interesting game, to morrow, if the Club can get out their full side, is between them and K.C.C. who will be playing away from home. There is a good deal of difference between the Kowloon eleven on its own ground and on the Club ground, an'ia but natural when ong considers the difference of light and wicket. Lyal, for instaner, never seems to bowl well this sidement, when Morris gained the ver

of the water, and is will be interest- ing to see what he does to-morrow, as recently he has been regaining his old form. In all probability the wicket will be on the soft side' and the probable result is a draw, though of the two I fancy K.0.0. if there is a definite result. The Navy are at home to the Indians and may make a draw of it if their bats come off. I doubt if their bowl- ing is strong enough to get out the well-balanced I.R.C. side, who have batting right down to number téh with thoir full side. The Civil Ser- vice trával to Pokfulam and relieved of the strein of three League matches may stags a coma-back. After all, their form so far has been too bad to be true. I rather fancy they may win. By the way all these three games are friendlies, and un- less the O.C. C. and Gunners have Axed a League match since their cards were printed, there is no

For Your Children, Too. A practising Hospital Nurse, in Baginad, writes: "For years now I have taken Genasprin mysolf in place of all other aspirin, and have also given them to children when the Doctor ben ordered spirias. I found with myself that other cheaper brands of aspirin did upset my heart and often seemed to give me indigestion, but. Genesprin never seems to have any ill-effects whatever, and certainly does roliere headaches very speedily. I never hesitate to take it and find it gives great relief,"
