Amongst the residences at the Peak is that of our late esteemed Chairman of Council, Mr. Hewett, from which there is an excellent vicy in almost all directions There are still a good many available sites on and around the Peak, and these will doubtless be occupied as time. goes on,There are of course drawbacks as well as advantages to life amongst tea. The mist is one. Probably there is no harm to health from living in the clous Peak residents do for days together at times. For however, damp it may be, the air is fresh and sweet, the temperature, never, I am told, above 85 degrees, and under those circum- stances it is quite possible to put up with mildew on the boots so long as one avoids cobwebs in the brain. For children the Peak is almost the only thing that makes life bearable in the Colony.

They wilt and wither on the lower levels in the long, hot summer, and there is no bracing winter as with us to pull them together. This probably accounts for the small number of children one sees in the streets. The others: have gone home.

Somebody suggested prayer.

But from a sermon that I happened to hear the Cathedral the Chaplain appeared to be

too much accustomed to follow the advice of Hercules to the waggoner to do anything of that sort. He boldly declared that the occasion was one for man to tackle himself insted

instead of

going whining to the Deity for aid. And I think most reasonable people will agree with the common sense of the worthy divine's remarks. But I suppose Hongkong is accus tomed to be on short commons so far as water. is concerned.

Otherwise something would surely have been done long ago. It is all very well for people to say "Don't waste ! but in a tropical summer it is difficult to say what is waste.
