Kowloon's Address of Welcome.

The residents of Kowloon will have an opportunity, during this week, of seeing the actual Address of Welcome which is to be pre- sented, in their name, to H.E. Sir William Peel, on the occasion of his first visit to Kowloon, on Mon- day, May 12th. The Address is exhibited in the main window of the Peninsula Hotel, Grocery De- partment, Nathan Road, from mid- day onwards (the blinds having to be lowered in the morning).

A copy of the Address, has been forwarded to the Government for transmission to the Governor De- signate. The Address itself has been beautifully illuminated by Mr. J. H. Hunt, O.B.E., as his generous contribution to the suc cess of the project. As Secretary, of the Hongkong European | Y.M.C.A., Mr. Hunt belongs to the Colony at large, but as a resident and head of a large residence in Kowloon, he takes a very keen in-

"Good for me

Most children suffer from some form of tooth trouble. This is simply the result of the habit of thorough mastication having been allowed to fall into abeyance by the practice of eating soft foods only. Your doctor and dentist will confirm that this bad practice is respon. sible for irregular, crowded and decayed teeth, and for ill-developed jaws and ugly mouths.

"Ovaltine" Rusks are so delightfully crisp and so de- liciously flavoured that children prefer them to soft brend and biscuits. They give the exercise the teeth need to ensure that these will be firm and sound and regularly spaced..

Remember, too, that "Ovaltine" Rusks provide whole- some and easily digested nourishment for building firm flesh and strong bones,

The finest wheaten flour is used in the manufacture of these delicious rusks. The addition of "Ovaltine" adds to their nutritive value and renders them easy of digestion.
