Hereafter the two Dow Turbo- Electric liners, President Hoover and President Coolidge will turn around at San Francisco and return to the Orient. All other vessels on the San Francisco run will continue on through to New York as in the past, and will maintain the sazacj frequency of sailings sa heretofore.
Since their arrival in the Trans. Pacific trade route last year, the huge new liners President Hoover and President Coolidge bare be- como increasingly popular and the now schedule, permitting these two steamers to serve the Pacific ports entirely is an indication of the de- sire of the Dollar Company to give its trans Pacific patrons the best possible servico. By this change of i schedule, tho Dollar Line gives ship- pers and travellers on the Pacific! the benefit of more frequent sailings | | by their newer and larger ships.

The rearrangement of vessels does TSANG FOOK PIANO
not affect frequency of sailings from any port, as a through "service is!" still maintained through to New York all the way hy Dollar Line stoamers. The transit time from Hong Kong to New York remains the same, 30 days as heretofore.
We see with the brain, I read. Which explains why some people're gard us with a vacant stare.

"Tom
Browa of "Culver, Universal's stirring drama of man- hood, in the making comes to The Central Theatre on Sunday. It is the first time in the history of the. talking screen that such a film has been made. Tom Brown himself is featured and in the very impos- King cast are Richard Cromwell Warner and Slim Summor ville. Hore, is a fine picture, fall of sentiment; it is a picture not only for boys, but for the girls and for every parent. Tom Brown of Culver is clean, with a very power ful theme, splendidly acted and definitely a picture well worth see
