WEDNESDAY,

SIR GEORGE BONHAM

(Continued from Page 6). November 22, 1860 in an- nouncing the facta stated as fol- lows: "The Quéon had been pleased to give orders for the appointment of Samuel George Bonham, Esquire, Commander of the most Honourable Order of the Bath, Chief Superinten- dent of Trade of Her Majesty's subjects to and from the do- minions of the Emperor of China, and Governor and Com- mander-in-Chief in and on the island of Hongkong 'and its de- pendencies, to be an ordinary member of the civil division of the second class or Knight Com- mander of the said most Honour- Jablo Order."

The news was 'brought to the Colony by the P. & O., steamer Pekin on January 20, 1851 and is said to have given genoral satis- faction.

The investiture of the Gov- ernor' took place at the Govern- ment Omees on Saturday, February 22, at 11.45 a.m., with all the usual ceremony, Major General Stavely under a warrant from Prince Albert, the head of the Order, invested Sir George in the insignia.

To this honour was added an- other a year later, when Queen Victoria conferred upon him the title of Baronet.

Sir George Bonham left Hong- kong on April 15, 1864 en route to England via Singapore where he spent a few days with the friends of his earlier years. Upon his departure, the English community of the Colony pre- sented him with the usual ad- dresses, and whilst there were many who complained of his administration and unfavourably commented upon his policy, there was a general feeling that after all he had served as an honest and conscientious ad- ministrator. Of course, how- ever, as Mr. Norton-Kyshe points out in his "History of the Laws and Courts of Hongkong" "a Governor whose acts no one could find fault with has never yet been appointed, and Governor Bonham, it is to be presumed, could not be expected to leave Hongkong amidst universal plaudits." Whatever his policy in the Colony might have been, he left full of honours and wealth, gained by a long career of official service and he died on his estate in Surrey, on October | 8, 1863.

The name of Sir George Bon- ham is perpetuated in the de- signation of two of the Colony's thoroughfares--Bonham Road

and Bonham Strand.

When one thinks

of the fact that not millions but milliards of microbes and bacteria are living in a neglected mouth, that is, in a mouth that has not boon daily antiseptically cleansed, it seems nothing less than dịs- gusting to allow such distruction to continue in our mouthsand tooth It is simply incredible that there still exist many educated people who refuse to realise that it is an absolute necessity not only for the preservation of the looth, but also for the general health, to free their mouth daily from the bacteria which destroy their footh
