Moving pictures for children were inevitable from the very moment moving pic- tures were invented; but it has been part of the normal course of things that they should not have been actually made until this time. Only the very best that the world can pro- duce is to be laid before the sincerely critical eyes of the young.
The grave necessity that has arisen for films entirely suited for children has now been met. William Fox, the producer, has taken this great, new step. The FOX KIDDIE FEATURES are ready for presenta- tion, and the first of these, JACK AND THE BEANSTALK,* will soon be before Hongkong cinema goers.
