Wore my new Chinese shaam. About 50 workers and Christians gathered at the girls at 7:00 P.M. Each brought a gift, costing not over 20 cents and put them in a large basket and each received someone else’s gift. Fed 131 poor, blind beggars, etc. in the mission – $2.50 a table. Ng Shap and Cheung Kam Fuk each gave a short message. Then took pictures.
