COVER: "CHINA behind the Red Mask. The PAST: A serene Civilization. THE PRESENT: A convulsive Machine. THE FUTURE: Juggernaut or Gentle Dragon?."
THIS MONTH'S COVER shows Ma Tsun Chung, of the Peking Opera, fully dressed and made up to play the Gomrnander-in-Chief of the enemy torces. The colour black shows that he is a powerful chieftain, the red that he is upright and the white that he is somewhat wicked, being an enemy. On this page, Lu Hung Cheh goes patiently through the process of making up for the role of Second-in-Command.
