In view of the seriousness of the Hooft disaster in North China which has affected more than ten provinces leaving the surviving millions in a most pitiful and wretchedly destitute state, the Tung Wah Hospital has appro- printed a sum of $30,000 from the surplus of the Flood Relief Fund for remittance to the affected areas for relief through channels Hongke which command the utmost con- | N. Engineerings ...The. fidence, and the present Directors Shanghai Docks,...Tla. have personally contributed, what they could toward the Relief Fund that has been instituted. But n the areas affected are extensive and the disaster most serious, the Directors are afraid that unless a very large' sum of money is sub- scribed nothing much
ve Can nchieved. They therefore most earnestly appeal to the public to give what they can. Donations, which will be duly acknowledged, should be forwarded to the Tung Wah Hospital which will remit them to the affected areas without delay.
