Advance Winter Notes Seen At Valley

(By Rosette)·

Autumn fashions, with here and there a suggestion of the real winter, predominated amongst the styles displayed by Chinese ladies at the Valley Races on Saturday. Hardly one real summer frock was seen. Old rose was the most noticeable colour, others favoured being black, green, rast and grey.

To British

Speaking at a meeting at Bolton recently, Miss L. Tou expressed appreciation for the opportunity to enlist British sympathy and support for the defence of China against the Japanese Invasion.

She stressed that the Chinese are a peace-loving people, but That this also applies to the majority of the Japanese, who are,'' towever, dominated by militaristic rulers.
