IN HOSPITAL TESTS
RECENTLY tents were made in a great
hospital on men and women who com- plained of always feeling tired.
It was found that these people had an excess of acid waste products in their blood during sleep.
This acid waste kept the brain, and nerves 'on edgo' all night oven though the rest of the body was sound asleep.
But when Horlicks was given to these people last thing at night, this excess ncid waste was completely neutrallsed. They woko refreshed, with increased energy and vitality.

South China was playing too much individualistle football, and wasted too much time in getting at goal. Although they had the chances of drawing level at this Juncturb, slow methods coupled with the excellent work put in by Carvalho, who saved everything that
