October. 1913. St. Joseph's College Troop has the distinction of being the "1st Hongkong Troop of Baden Powell Boy Scouts." The present Scoutmaster, Mr. H. Braga, has been awarded the Bronze Cross of the Order of St. John of Jerush- lem, and, at a publie parade last week, received at the hands of Sir Cecil Clémenti, K.C.M.G., the Governor, the "Silver Cross" of the Boy Scouts' Association for eonspicuous gallantry in saving the life of a young Chinese girl.

An Earthquake.

An earthquake in 1918 damaged the College building. The main walls of the annexes were badly cracked and it was considered un- safe to remain in occupation of the building. The opportunity pre- sented itself for the acquisition of the extensive property in Kennedy Road. This happened during an early stage of Brother Almar's' ad- ministration. Since 1918, the Col- lege authorities have become the Crown lessees of this most de sirable property.

Thank to Brother Aimar's un- flinching courage and determina- tion to face all financial. dimeul- ties and to the aid granted by the Colonial Government, the erection of the fine, spacious building is now an accomplished fact.

Then and Now: 1875-1925. Starting with only 70 boys in, 1875, St. Joseph's College has an enrolment to-day of over 800 scholars. Thousands have passed through its portals. Some have

In the World War, past pupils were among these who joined up.

Mr. Braga concluded with tribute to the Brothers, to whom those who have passed through the College owe so much.

Education.

Bishop-Elect Valtorth is a man of unusual intellectual abilities and a great linguist and is highly admired by all who have had the pleasure of his arguaintance.
