KING'S BIRTHDAY

HAPPY VALLEY REVIEW

AND MARCH PAST

·

The Colony of Hongkong yesterday honoured the forty.. second birthday of His Majesty King Edward VIII by n display of military splendour and public loyally almost unequalled in its history of ninety-five years.

It was the particular wish of His Excellency the Governor, Sir Andrew Caldecott, that the observances should be of a nature

heftting the first birthday celebration of the Monarch since he succeeded six months ago, and the large holiday crowds, and members of military and voluntary services gave their whole. hearted support. Ships in harbour dressed overall and banners fluttered from all buildings,

In the morning, His Excellency received the Consular, body and drank the health of IIIs Majesty with them. Special permission had been obtained to hold a reception in the evening and over 2,000 guests thronged Government House to be received by His Excellency and Lady Caldecott, who braved a' slight indisposition to take her share in the celebration.

A salute of 21 guns was fired by the Mountain Battery, 1LK.S.R.A. at noun yesterday' signalizing the birth day of the King

Elaborate arrangements had been made by the military authorities to ensure that the precision and smooth- nesa characteristle of British cere monial should be strictly adhered to on the occasion of the Review. His Excellency the Governor had in- Uimated some weeks before that he desired the Colony, to extent itselti on this first birthday of the King Emperor in his royal rol

A happy omen in the eyes of the Chinese was the coincidence of the birthday with their own Dragon Boat Festival, a day for festivity and re- Joleing which perhaps kept many of them from viewing the parade" but sufllently compensated for that mission by bringing its ungury of good fortune.

The police had taken great trouble to arrange the traffic streams with the minimum of Inconvenience and had published orders a week ago for this benefit of the motorinį: publis. Drivers were thus told to go clockwise

round Happy Valley to the entrance gutes to avoid congestion. East bound frame was diverted from Queen's Road at Arsenal Street and Gloucester Itoad was closed to all but pedestrians and troops from 4 to 7 p.m. while the latter made thelf way to and from the parade ground.. Other troops and detachments converged on the Valley; from Causeway Bay Road, Caroline H and Leighton Hill Road.

At the word of command the entire parade then executed the impresize advance in review order, izlied, and the Royal Salute was given.

Three cheers called for bythe G.O.C. were loudly given, hats being raised in the air as he shouls echoed from end to end of the three hundred yard line.

Owing to the absence of the feet on their northern summer cruise, the naval detachment was very small. Lined up on the crisp turf within the race course facing the enclosures und stands, the troops and units pre- sented an Imposing spectacle, and despite the variety of their uniforms art manner in which they marched to and occupied their po sitions, successfully united them inlo ane, organisation for the purpose of
