"The Fun O the Fair, the tote organised by the Hongkong Women's Guild and the Minister log Children's League which is to be held at Leo Gardens to-day promises to be one of the most
ambitious undertakings of its kind ever seen in Hongkong. Activa preparations have been made, dur- ing the last few months and and to-day will see the culmination of the efforts of the many people who have worked diligently to make this "Fun O' the Fair worthy of the utmost support of the Hongkong public.
It is interesting to note at this time that a branch of the Minister. ing Children's League was in- troduced in the Colony many years ago by Lady May, and in 1920 the Hongkong Women's Guild was founded and united with it. Since that date both have con- tinued their combined work of service and help by providing entertainments to raise funds which are distributed annually among the various charities.
The principal of these in Hong. kong are French Convent
the Hospital, the Italian Convent Hospital, the Nethersole Hospital, the Ying Wa Girls' School, the Baxter Mission, the Village School Fund, the Fairlea School, the Victoria Home, the Blind Home at Kowloon, the Hongkong Bencvo- lent Society and the Home for Aged Poor, Kowloon,
The principal charities at Home to which donations are made are the following:-the M. C. L. Cots at Ottershaw, the Trafalgar Home for Orphans, the Royal Soldiers' Daughters' Home, the Orphan Homes of Scotland, (Quarrier's).. the Imperial Merchant Service Guild, the Evelina Hospital for Children, the London Hospital Children's Ward, the Officers' Families Fund, the Sociéty for Providing Homes for Waifs and Strays and the Shaftesbury Homes and "Arethusa" Training Ship:

A Few of the Attractions. To discuss aide shows for a moment. In addition to the various stalls which will prove of interest to seekers after useful and reasonable priced articles, there will be many of the old side shows rarely seen in Hongkong but extremely popular in earlier days. The men, and perhaps the Indies, too, will have an opportunity of trying their skill at knocking coconuts from their sandy beds, and of testing their skill on the shooting range.
