PREVENTION OF
CHOLERA
The public is warned against the danger of eating the dishes known as "YU SANG" and "YU SANG CHUK."
These dishes contain raw fresh- water fish. This fish is bred in ponds into which human exere ment is poured as food for the fish.
.. The danger of catching cholera by eating this Aah in an uncooked state is therefore very great. All fresh-water fish should be well cooked before being eaten.

There is every possibility of add!- Bonal British troops being sent to Shanghai from Hong Kong as the situation in the northern port has so gravely worsened.
Although no definite orders have been received, it is understood that the Royal Ulster Rifles are standing by.
