TWENTY CIVILIANS KILLED Most of the shops and privatê pe- sidences damaged were along the following streets! Wen Tiao Hsiang, Klang Tung Men, Chien Kang Lụ Men and Tung glen Ying.

Up to the present it is known that over 20 civilians were killed and 20 others injured.

Nanking. Sept. 25: Ninety-six Japanese bombers representing the largest fleet of planes ever sent to China from Japan-staged dve raids ever, the Chinese capital be- tween 9.30 o'clock this morning and 4.30 o'clock this afternoon. More than 200 bombs fell in the city.

Thirty-one machines took part in the first attack at 9.30 o'clock, An investigation is being con- and were intercepted outside of the tinued and it is feared that the city by Chinese planes where angures will be much higher when The chairman sald: "Before force encounter ensued.

gung below, the Japanese airmen dipped low and released their missiles on the city. Machine-guns were also brought into play and the airmen strafed the streets and the terrified civilians.

Regarding the Building Loan Ac count you will see that a sum of $850 has been repald to members during the year leaving an out- standing debit balance nt $575 which sum. It is hoped may be cleared off by the middle of the next financial year. While this is a very satisfactory state of affairs it is not to be thought that the Club can just sit back and pat itself on the back,

It is the opinion of the treasurer, and I agree with him, that the next aim should be the creation of a substantial reserve fund' which would be a great relief to future committees and office bearers

One bomb fell on the Power Station at Hslakwan near the waterfront, damaging some of the machinery.

During the first attack Japanese bombers were brought down, three being hit by anti- aircraft shells. One of the bomb erg fell in the South City, two

Considérable Indignation has been aroused here over the alr raids to-day as all the buildings damaged were hospitals and cultural institutions. None of the military centres were bit during to- day's bombing.'

THE SECOND RAID

The second ruld occurred at 12.30 o'clock, 33 planes participating.

Flying well over the city the air- men empled their bomb-racks and the whole city was rocked by the exploding missiles...

Large THE INVINCIBLE

MEMBERSHIP POSITION Turning to membership while there has been no falling off in "the membership there has been no

real increase. With the number of Civil Servants now in the Colony a total membership of 184 is too small. A little can. vassing by members should easily bring this figure to nearer 300 The non-playing member section would appear to offer most scope for increase as for a total annual" subscription of $10 a non-playing member has the full use of the Club House, Refreshment Room, Library etc., surely good value for money.

The Christmas Tree was the usual cheery and successful gather- ing and I would thank all who helped to give the Elddies a good time.

The library is a great asset to the Club and I would congratulate Mr. Bradley on its smooth run- ning and thank him for the large amount of time he has so willingly given to it.

COLLECTIVE ENTHUSIASM Turning to the sporting "side of the Club. I note that the Cricket Section did moderately well though rather inconsistently. What real- ly is wanted is some collective en- thusiasm which would enable the
