The local branch of the Legion is again organising Poppy Day drive for November 11 and many promises of help have been received. While it is not ex- pected, in view of the hard times the Colony has been passing through, to reach last years figure, it is hoped that all those who gavo last year will do so again even if their contribution" must necessarily be smaller: As is pointed out by the cable, the need for help in still great and it is earnestly hoped that Hongkong. will again"do its bit as did the men for whom this fund is pro- vided.
