Queen's College. After completing his course as a Government student at the Tientsin Chinese Government College, he was appointed surgeon to the Imperial Chinese Navy. Subsequently, while still in the Government service, he became assistant professor of his old college. For some years he was associated with Dr. Kerr, of Canton, but upon arrival in Hongkong he joined the staff of the Alice Memorial and Nethersole Hospitals, commencing private practice in the Colony about eight years ago. Dr. Wan Tün Mo does a great deal of writing in his spare time. He is connected with the literary staff of a Chinese magazine published in Hongkong, is the author of several works in Chinese, and has translated various text-books now in use among Chinese students.

DR. KWAN SUM YIN has the distinction of being the Chinese medical practitioner of longest standing in the Colony. He received his English education at the Diocesan School, and was the first graduate of the Hongkong College of Medicine. In 1893 he was appointed house surgeon to the Nethersole Hospital, but resigned this post, after three years, to enter the service of the Chinese Government at Nanking as an army surgeon. He served the Imperial Government for four years, and then, ten years ago, when European methods were little known among the Chinese, returned to Hongkong and commenced private practice. His surgery is at No. 18a, Stanley Street.
