A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.
OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
SPLENDID CPPORTUNITY FOR ALL."
To combat the anti-foreign propaganda being sent Home every resident of Hong Kong should send Home the truth about China.
You can do valuable work by posting a copy of this week's "Overland China, Mail." It will be commented upon, quoted and kept for reference."
Recipients will be able to speak with authority on the situation. And they will say that so-and-so in Hong Kong is keeping them posted.
Qutside of dentimental reasons, one has also a duty to the folks at Home.
Each issue of the "Overland China Mail" is a complete, and comprehensive diary of the week's events in China and in Hong Kong...
All sides of a question are given so that the conflicting reports may be properly estimated. But where people. abroad will be able to derive the greatest help is in the care- ful and brief footnotes and explanations added daily to the messages published.
We make it a duty to tell non-Chinese what every detai! means. With the guidance of the "Overland China Mail" people reading the papers at Home will no longer be at a loss to understand whether a Chinese name is that of a place, general, party or office.
1
At no other time is the need for information from China so great. For a very small cost you can fill that need for a friend and him under an obligation to you for being so
put ́thoughtful....‚
This week's features are, of course, the situation, at Hankow and other Concessions along the Yangtse, and the. outrages on foreigners at Foochow and elsewhere,
