"Have you any brothers or sisters, dear?" asked the teacher.

"Yes, las" replied Betty. "Then are you the oldest of the, family, Betty?"

Betty laughed. "Oh, no, miss, daddy and mummy are both older than me."

Total Warfare

Total Sacrifice

MERE WORDS FAIL to emphasise the gravity of the great fight against brutality and oppression, in which we are so seriously engaged. The hordes of Hitler are desperate in their fiendish desire to obliterate the British Empire, and all that it stands for. It is total warfare. Total in the sonse that not only are our gallant sailors, soldiers and airmen in- volved, but civilians as well..

ALREADY THE TOLL of lives amongst the civilian population of the British Isles, is heavy. Already, Innocent children are being malmed and blinded. The scene is polg nantly grim. Our folk who are in the midst of the holocaust come up smiling after every onslaught—even though they have tears in their eyes and anguish in their hearts. They are Undaunted! Unconquerablef

HONGKONG is doing well, but can do still batter. There have been magnificent contributions to the Bomber Fund, and there has been great sacrifice on the part of some who have given again and again. Let it be remembered however, that the two million dollars would not have been recorded but for the humble gifts from those who could afford no more.

THIS COLÓNY enjoys the blessing of peace, but that blessing should serve to stimulate and quicken the desire. to give to the greatest cause of all time. Our people at Home know what total warfare means. Let them know that the people of Hongkong understand what total giving means.

Depletion in Health'

Now, put this down for this same period. There has been a marked change in feminine hygiene, almost complete suppression in many cases; Ja serious lowering of the birth rate; noticeable increase in visceral can- cer, and a rise in tuberculosis that almost undoes our advance in its control.
