Mrs. Ho Sal-wab, al tio Cheng. In Mount Davla.

These orphants arrived in the Colony on September 9, having left Hankow on November 3 and stopped over in Canton for half a day. The children, of whom there are 63 girls, were accompanied by fen Chinese boy scouts and four lady teachers from the parent association in Hankow. The Canton Branch of the Association also sent another scout and a few (workers to accompany the party. After their arrival, they banded the orphans over to the twenty ladies from the Hongkong Association who met them at the railway station.

The National Association for the Care of War Orphans was started in Hankow in March of this year. A scheme was worked out whereby orphanages would be established throughout Chins with about 500 children a unit, As fis name indicates, the main purpose of the organisation is to care for the unfortunate children who have become orphaned by the present Sino-Japanese hostilities.

The Associations aim to care for 20.000 children under the age of twelve. The children of soldiers and destitute refugees are given first preference. The maintenance of each child is $5 (National Currency) per month.
