A WEEK'S PAPERS IN ONE.
OVERLAND
CHINA
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.
Once again it has been an exceedingly busy week for the "Overland China Mail" so much so that the current issue literally overflows with good things. The paper. itself is a strong argument for sending it away to people in the Old Country and friends in other parts of the world.
Sports take a very prominent place. In the realm of Jawn bowls, the Shanghai Interport visit has concluded and other important local matches have been played; flat racing has been resumed under new circumstances; surprises have come thus early in the soccer season; competition is keen for the forthcoming triangular cricket tournament with Shanghai and Malaya. All this is covered" by the "Overland," the only weekly news budget published in Hong Kong carrying pictures.
"Social and personal" events deserve much attention. with the passing away of respected residents, a number of weddings and announcements of more to follow during “the Hong Kong season."
"Double Ten Day" (the anniversary of the Republic of China) was celebrated in Hong Kong in a manner befitting the first time of making it a public holiday. Read about it in the "Overland."
1
On the West River delta, because of political develop- ments, pirates have ventured out again. In connection with them, exciting narratives are printed in the "Overland."
11
Mention of politics brings to mind the fact that three wars are being waged in China at the moment: in Man- churia, v. the Soviet; in the South, the Ironsides on their forlorn hope; and in North China, the flinging down of the gauntlet by the "Christian General's" men in defiance of the Central authorities. What is happening is both recorded and described (for the benefit of the foreigner) in the "Overland China Mail." Be certain you get your copy and post it in time. Or leave an order with the "Overland " office.
