THE LARGEST MORNING AND AFTERNOON CIRCULATIONS
Calculated on the basis of actual sales, the advertising value per dollar spent
is at its maximum when a joint con- tract is taken covering the South China Morning Post and The Hongkong Telegraph.
Not only does the advertiser reach the majority of local homes, hotels, clubs and ships, but his message is freely circulated throughout the Outports. No other form of advertising possesses the same advantages.
The very fact that newspaper adver- tising accompanies, the ever-changing news of the day ensures that it is read in the right place at the appropriate
moment. ADVERTISEMENTS PREPARED FREE OF CHARGE.
