Hitherto, to find out what "the other half of the world" was thinking was difficult. It meant wading through dozens of periodicals and many dull articles. But now, you can quickly get a grip of world opinion-with "Parade," the British Digest of Good Reading. Each month this unique
magazine brings you 40 articles selected from the world's lead- ing papers, magazines and books. These articles are condensed to a terse, vivid style that gives absorbing interest even to "diffi- cult" subjects. From cover to cover "Parade's" 164 pages of packed full vital information-in- formation no intelli- gont person can afford to be without. And a whole year's subscrip- tion to "Parade" costs only 7/6 (H.K.$6.25),` post free, and copies are sent to you every month direct from England.
