Promises Well

More than ever will leading firms concentrate on advertising in the "South China Morning. Post" and "The Hongkong Telegraph" during 1937.

One progressive House will use a minimum of 20,000 single column inches between the two newspapers. Others vary from 15,000 to 10,000 single column inches per annum. This heavy support of the advertise- ment columns of the 'Post' and 'Telegraph' is proof of the consistent value offered.

The

rates represent the economical form of appeal to the majority of the purchasing classes. It will pay YOU to concentrate during the coming year on the two newspapers with the certified circulations.
