WHY WORRY?
"W
THY WONY? The War's over!" So it is. We
have all heard that remark more than once,-- but there is much to worry" about yet. We're not out of the game simply because the Huns.
What you gave on have laid down their guns, Heather Day and at the Fair is surely not the limit of your sacrifice! There are thousands and thousands of brave men condemned to pass the rest of their lives in misery unless we rally to the aid of the great work of healing. Thanks to the Army and Navy, we have? had, and will continue to have, a very comfortable time in Hongkong. It is our duty then to "worry," in order that the maimed and sick, the human wreckage of the great war of Liberty, may be restored. Every one of us here owes a great debt to the men who fought and bled in the war-a debt which we can neger
repay.
But we can show our appreciation by giving our last cent to the great work of mercy in which so many noble men and women are engaged at home. Money is urgently needed. Shall we grudge it now that the war is won? Never let it be said that our patriotism and honour petered out with the echo of the last shot. Don't say that you put every cent yon had into Heather Day and St. Andrew's Fair. The War Bond Drawing is for the same cause, and ite success must be written down in the anuale of the Colony's giving as another endeavour to show tangible appreciation of the brilliant achievements, co the battlefield and on the North Sea, of the bravest boys on earth. Make the result a Victory Offering worthy of the Colony.

Your Dream Has Come True At Last |
Were you ever a child
Do you remember how you used to sit by the fire on cold, stormy nights at the feet of Someone who read to you from a big, flat book? She told you all the marvels of the world, and all the dreams that are too happy to be realized in the world. And you listened, rapt,
..
And when She would turn a page you would jump to your feet at once, and put your hand on Her arm, and ask id your child voice:
"May I see the picture ?**
Then She would show you a wonderful thing of red and yellow and green and blue, which contained all the fairies of the universe, and the giants and dragons and dwarfs. And you would look at it lovingly, and whisper to Her:
You?"
"I wish there was a picture of the whole story, don't
Like the hero in the story to which you listened, your wish has now come true,
You CAN as a picture of the whole story—a picture filled with all the elusive charm and mystery which pervaded the reading of the story on that cold, stormy night. The genius of a score of men has perfected the moving picture process that you might see your favourite tale in life; and the master mind of William For has discovered that YOU, wanted to see this tale, and has transplanted it to the realm of screenland. Jack, the Princess, the Giant, even the titanic beanstalk are there before you, tangible things,
You can see "Jack and the Beanstalk" in the being..
