the Editor of the "Norra Cuixa Dany Ne Sim,—Walking down the short stretch of Ningpo Road between Szechuen Road and Kiangse Road last evening, I saw a good number of refugees huddled up in the alleyways. Some were trying to snatch a bit of sleep under cover of a piece of matting, There must be many others similarly situated and their lot must be very trying in this cold weather. One wonders whether anything can be done for these unfortunate people with the funds recently collected for just such a purpose?
