To celebrate the 82nd Anniversary of the Hongkong Daily Press, the oldest morning paper in Hongkong, which was establish ed on October 1, 1857, a special supplement is to be issued," This will be printed on good quality paper and will be profusely illus- trated, and it will give the best presentation of Hongkong yet attempted.
As the Hongkong Daily Press's 82nd Anniversary falla ten days before October 10, the Double.Tenth. which is China's National Day, it is proposed to conmemorate the occasion in the same special supplement which will, therefore, also give a compre- hensive account of the progress of the Republic of China as made under the guidance of the Kuo Min Tang..
It being the wish of the publishers of the Hongkong Daily Press to emphasize Sino-British friendship as the theme of the special supplement, a cover design clearly presenting this theme is being sought. With a view to securing a suitable design, it is proposed to hold a contest, the rules of which follow-
