For many years the Gore- ment has pursued with a great deal of vigour the policy of covER. ing the bare hill slopes of the Colony with verdure and the results can be best appreciated by comparison of the landscape with the photographs of Hongkong of some forty or fifty years ago. It is not only for appeare ance ́sake that this work is CRETI- ed on, though the conversion of the manginess appertaining to the hill-sides of Kowloon is alone well worth the trouble. There are other reasons for the work and these cannot be too strongly impressed on the Chinese, who, periodically, for reasons which they best understand themselves, blacken the hillsides with fire and put back the hands of the clock by andaing the labour as it begins to show the desired. reenita.

Though, in the words of Admiral Lord Charles Beresford, the Navy does not seek advertisement, it is due to the gallant men who man our ships that their invaluable rer- rices should be recognised, and is is due to the Empire that its con- tribution to the common cause which has appeared at times to be ander-estimated by our Allies, made should occasionally be known.

Mr. Joseph Chamber- lain, two years later, had the same question under consideration 4.50 when he became Secretary of state for the Colonies, and shared to some extent Lord Ripon's views on this subject Mr. Chamberlain observed that while most of the larger Crown Colonies possess one or mre Municipal Councils, sub- 175ordinate to the Colonial Govern
