For the first time for many months, practically every awka- ming Club in the Colony will b; "represented to-night at the Charity Swimming Gals which being held under the patron- are of, Lady Southern at the South China Athletic Association's The Gal commences at 7 Bathing Pavilion at North Point p.m. sharp.

The function which is in aid of the Society for the Frotec- tion of Children promises to be one of the outstanding swin- ming events of the year, and Clubs such as the Victoria Recrea... tlon Club, who boast some of the finest swimmers in the Colony, the European Y.M.C.A., and South China, who have the pick of the Chinese swimmers, are participating.

Six of the nine swimming events, seen pitted against the best of the are open to the Colony, while the Chinese water-polo which brings the gala to a conclusion, promises to be a titanic struggle.

The Victoria Recreation Club will start favourites in the Men's 200 Metres team race for teams of four. while South China who have kcquired several new swiramers— the pick of the other Chinese Clubs-will fully extend the VRC The European YMCA, which have stood a ordinarily would chance at being placed within the are unfortunately first three.

With poppy they can plant the corn between the rows and it is ready to be hoed by the dime opium is gathered. But wheat is later ripening than the oplum, so they may have to lose a crop of corn from the land. Not much rice land is planted to poppy in this part of the province.
