on

The Hon Mr. M. K, Lo introduced the speaker.

Miss Ming said that health is only fundamental. It is not every- thing, but only the necessary de- ginning for the certainty of deve- lopment.

It we could all realize this in- dividually, and base our being on it, a consciousness of purpose would arise and bring into usefulness many people who are to-day just filling up space in the world, and also extend the time of usefulness of the people who have started helping other people.

Demonstrations were given by

Misses Florence Yeo, Pilan Petigura, Lena Yung, Rose Kew, Jessie Wong. Irene Lee and Helena Bockier.

Morning Tiredness

The following facts are of interest but and importance to everyone especially to those who habitually wake up tired in the morning

SLEEP should be "Tired Nature's

Sweet Restorer." It should refresh. the body, strengthen the nerves and renew energy. Yet how often - even after" an apparently good night's sleep you awake weary and listless, unprepared for the day's work - The most probable cause of this Morning Tiredness is that you went to bed without providing Nature with, the nutriment necessary for the work of re storation. Remember that the daily expenditure of energy, and the wear and tear on the inental and nervous system, must be made good-by adequate

of the right kind.

By far the beat way to ensure the correct form of nutriment while you sleep is to make “Ovaltine your bedtime beverage. Ovaltine' has special pro- perties which not only quickly induce sound, natural sleep, but it also supplies avery nutritive elament required to make that sleep completely restorative. 'Ovaltine' is a perfect food. It is prepared from the finest of Nature's foods alt plus milk, plus new-laid eggs

Eggs are liberally used because they are the richest source of lecithin-a vítál nerve- building element. No tonic food beverage would be complete without the special nutritiva and vitalising properties of egga

i

Experience all over the world has proved that 'Ovaltine' is unequalled both as a bedtime and day- time beverage. Although imitations are made to look the same, there are extremely important differences.

For your health's sake, start the "Ovaltine' habit to day. DISTRIBUTORS: Jardine, Matheson & Co, Ltd.
