This is the second of a series of articles on Air Raid Precautions in Honjong, which are to be published daily in the "Hongkong Telegraph". The series comme acod'n Saturday, and will continue throughout the week.

A. R. P — THESE

ARE

YOU SHOULD DO

If air raids ever came to this Colony, every home should have a refuge specially prepared in which the whole household could take cover. Every shop and office, or other place of work or business, would require a place similarly prepared for those engaged on the premises.

Every householder, or head of a family or business, should learn now how to protect, in war-lime, his own people and home from the effects of explosive bombs, incendiary bombs, and polson gas.

This appiles chiefly to those who live in large centres of population. In more remate districts the dangers would no doubt be less though the need for protection and precautions would still exist.

of

All the precautions recommended In this book are useful. Most them can be adopted to some extent by everyone, The essential things cost little to do, and some of the more elaborate ones you will find you can do quite easily, elther yourselt or by combining with a neighbour, if you decide to begin NOW, and take your time.

Do not hesitate to ask for advice if you need it. A local air rald pre- cautions organisation has been established in your district and nir rald wardens have been appointed to help you. For any help you need. apply to your warden or to the Air Rald Precaution Offker,

WHAT TO DO NOW The whole of this book is con- cerned with how to counter the danger of air attack. It is divided into sections so that you can turn quickly to any part and find out
