The committee of the Missions to Baamon in Hongkong is most gratifled in being able to anounco that the proceeds of the Concert recently given by the band of the 1st. Batt. E. Surrey Regiment on bohalf of the Society amounted to the splendid sum of $1,125.92, which is needless to say a great help towards the realisation-of the $20,000 so urgently needed." ́|

This fine result would not have boon attained without the mont generous résistance of the many willing helpers,and they therefore wish to express their most grate- ful thanks to the band, vocalists and accompanieto to Lt.-Col. F.S. Montague Bates, C.B., CM.G. D.S.O., and the regimental. band committee, to Mr. C. Ger- ken for undertaking the greater part of the organisation, Mrs. B Thompson for arranging for the| advertisements in the programme and designing the cover, the Nowspaper Enterprise, Ltd. for reduced printing charges, the Commercial Press.
