And if the playing of bands, making of speeches, posting of rainbow-coloured posters,-calling attention to the necessity of wide, clean, streets, ha: any deterrent effect onthe discase-producing germs, them we will have 'a-clean city in a short time. day has been given to. an.
on everything undesirable, we heartily wish their expressed desires a plentiful harvest. But Sadly Tragic, Yet Worthy of a Veteran General: British had to look on helpless.
British Doctor Summoned A British physician, an intimate] friend of the "Young General," residing at Hsiaohoyen, was eummoned. He repeated camphor inject thas, but the victim expired at 10 a little over four hours after the bombing incident, On the 6th instant, two carportters were called in from the Mukden Arsenal to make the coffin and the remains were then placed in it, Bomb Fitted Inside Car?
Engineer Wang Chang-chun of the Mukden Arsencl, a member of the Chinese Committee of Inquiry who conducted a joint investigation of the scene of the recent bombing incident with the Japanese, has made a startling report to the following effect.
Judging by the wreckage of the railway care left upon the ground, the bomb that worked such terrible Havoc is believed to have been fitted inside one of the cars.

I dare say not many: cities are so well prepared naturally, for being easily changed into a real clean hygienic, model city. The river runs round three of it just beside the wall, while ide the wall and near to it there the famous Snail Hill, on which could be built a reservoir at small cost, sufficient to give pressure enough to reach higher than any of the buildings in the city.. This could be kept full of beautiful clean, clear, water at a very modest outlay for steam: or motor power. In any other.country' it would. have been taken advantage of long ago.
Our Annual, the "Motor Road" is again with us. We wonder how Our officials are still alert as to evil doers, as some of the "wanted" men found recently. They seem to have thought that with the lapse of months things had cooled down and memories had become dull, so they ventured to a neighbouring town just to reconnoitre, but were instantly arrested and placed in safe keeping. The evil stain of Communism has not yet been washed
