As will be seen from an advertisement appearing elsewhere in this issue, the Club Lusitano extends an invitation to the entire community of Hong Kong and to Portuguese visitors from Macao to a reception which will be held at the Club on Thursday next, December 5, at 5.30 p.m.
The Consul General for Portugal, Mr. A. Cerveira d'Albuquerque Castro, will extend to His Excellency the Governor of Macao a cordial welcome back, on behalf of the Portuguese community of Hong Kong. As President of the Club Lusitano, the Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga will deliver a short address.
Following Senhor Barbosa's reply, tea will be served, after which there will be dancing up to 8.30 p.m. Two orchestras will be in attendance and they will be supplemented by Mr. P. M. Sequeira and his band, composed exclusively of members of his family, who will kindly render pleasing selections during the ing's proceedings.
