'A FRANK DISCLAIMER,
Exactly thirteen days after leaving Croydon, Miss Amy Johnson, the 22-year-old Yorkshire girl, who is going to Australia on a lone flight in a small Gipsy Moth aeroplane, landed at Seletar Air Base, says the Straits Echo's Singapore correspondent.

The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL this week contains a full description of the observance of Entpire Day in the Colony, and the text-of the special services for children held in con-- nection with the celebrations.
IMAGE PAR ADHINNA TH
An intriguing "inner" story of the return to the Canton Opium Suppression Bureau of 66,600 taels of material seized by local Revenue men in March, is an exclusive, feature of the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. The huge seizure, which is described as being Yunnan raw opium, was found aboard a nameless launch which ran aground in Hong Kong waters. But after lengthy representations, "it was found to be "material for the manufacture of anti-opion medicine" and was accordingly handed back!
A sensation was caused in Chinese circles by a brutál murder of five people in a bank. The maddened assailant then attempted self-destruction, but was overpowered, and taken to hospital. A full report appears in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
}
Yet another trial was stepped by the jury at the recent Criminal Sessions. In this case, a Chinese was charged with murderous assault during the strike of 1925. The victim had since died, and counsel for the defence had some scathing. comment to make about the case. The OVERLAND CHINÄ MAIL carries a complete report. ›.
The Colony said a reluctant "Good-bye" during the week to two well-known figures in the community. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL has the only complete account of a presentation by Chinese teachers to Mr. E. Ralphs,' acting Director of Education, who has devoted 35 years to the cause in the Colony. Colleagues in the Police Force also bade "farewell" to Inspector Donald Macdonald, who is retiring after 22 years' service. The presentation by brother officers, together with particulars of the Inspector's 'career, is fully described in the present issue.
In North China, the Kuominchün and Allied armies claim outstanding successes, which are vehemently denied by Nanking. A startling rumour is now current to the effect that Dr. C. T. Wang, Foreign Minister, is about to resign. Latest dispatches on the troubled situation appear in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
There is no phase of the life of the Colony or of China that does not receive attention in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL — the weekly paper that YOU MUST ORDER NOW.
