OVERLAND
CHINA
PICTURES of all local events
are shown in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL,
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS. The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
Informative throughout, this week's "Overland China Mail"-the weekly edition of the "China Mail" and the only illustrated news budget in the Colony-contains an abundance of reading matter which will be welcome in other parts of the world.
There is the death of Hong Kong's bachelor taipan, Mr. H. P. White, the conclusion of the annual racing carnival, several more annual reviews of business in the Colony, and an important pronouncement by H.E. the Governor at King's College.
Much of importance has occurred in China, with events ranging from the North to Central China and down to the South. How developments may affect trade in Hong Kong in particular and other trade generally is summed up.
Be sure to get your copy of the "Overland" in time for sending away.
If you are going on leave, do not forget to place an order for the "Overland" to be sent to any address for any period you desire.
