SPECIAL COLOURED SUPPLEMENT with PICTURES of all local events
is given free in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS
and all the NEWS.
The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
After the relaxation of summer, the sports season proper. has set in in Hong Kong, signifying the beginning of a busy period. "Official" soccer opened last Saturday, the lawn bowls festival continues even though the invaders from Shanghai have been repulsed, and cricket has been played in carnest. Residents (other than new arrivals) and old know what this means. It is the end of the dull period of the year and the commencement of the time of activity. Such activity is reflected in the "Overland China Mail," the only weekly news budget published in Hong Kong with pictures.

The current number of the "Overland" has much to
tell. We venture to predict that it will be eagerly read in Britain and other parts of the world, even in remote corners which have little connection with our Colony. Sending a friend a copy of the "Overland" will be bestowing a boon on the recipient. Aren't you pleased when somebody in the Old Country forwards you a paper with matter of personal interest to you? Reverse the position and you can do the folks at Home a favour by sending them a Hong Kong paper to read. And you must, of course, send the "Overland," with its abundance of news, illustrations, etc.
For your folks at Home to re- ceive this weekly budget, or to keep yourself posted with affairs during your absence, all that you have to do is to drop a chit to the "Over land China Mail"
Lettora lo relatives and friends whatsoever in Hong Kong, and in other parts of the world many letters testify to the keen. frequently fail to be written pleasure and interest its weekly
arrival brings. Aven by the 114082 ardeni correspondents, It is • kindly thought, therefore, to ensure that those away from the Colony, or folks at Home, should have an unfailing supply of Hong Kong and Chino news every week--by The word "Overland" is a va means of subscription to the minder of the experience behind "Overland China Mail"..
