ST. ANDREW'S CHURCH. ANNUAL VESTRY MEETING.

The annual meeting of St. Andrew's Church, Kowloon, was held in the Church Hall yesterday evening, the Viear, the Rev. G. R. Baday, presiding.

Mr. AE Farrell, the Hon. Treasurer presented the annual Anancial statement. and with regard to an item of $1,000 for building maintenance, stated that owing to damage caused by white ants, it had been found necessary to re-wire the Vicarage throughout.

Addressing the meeting. the Vicar "commented with pleasure on the large attendance, and said that by boped that all the members of the church would share this obvious interest in all depart meats of the working of St. Andrew's, and as far as possible give a helping hand. Referring to the abolition of pew rents which came about during the past year. the speaker said that the step had been fully justified. He felt that it was essentially a legitimate and right

one.

After alluding at some length to the loyal and consistently able church work done by fr. R. Packham for eighteen years, the Vicar asked his acceptance of & clock with Westminster chimes, and a cheque of $900.35, as tokens of the exteen and affection of the congregation, prior to Mr. Packham's departure for Home on retirement,

Mr. Packham, who spoke with evident emotion, made a brick speech of thanks which was heartily applauded. The Vicar subsequently handed tokens of re membrance to Mes, and Miss Packham- and wristlet watch

2 gold-mounted fountaia-pen respectively.

Mr. R. Packham, who came to the Kowloon Wharf and Hongkong and Godown Company in 1900 and has re- mained with the Brm over since, bas served continuously as churchwarden at St. Andrew's for eighteen years.}

The Vestry for the forthcoming year consists of:

The Rev. G. R Lindsay, M.A.. Vicar, the Rev. G E. Arrowsmith, M.A., the Hon. Sir Paul Chater, CM.G.. and Messrs. Mitchell, A W. Smith, Whitley, Tofte. Padbary and J. J. Robson.

Hope or Curiosity

I think sometimes the word "curiosity." is just another name for "hope."

You might fancy that it was curiosity that made you smoke your first Kensitas-no, sir, it was really hope, the hope that you would find Kensitas a really good cigarette, better than the kind you had been smoking.

But it is a fact, air, that after you smoked that first Kensitas and experienced the cool, rare old blend of prime Virginia you continued to smoke Kensitas, because you found that Kensitas are . *sa goed is really good cigarettes

can be.

CINEMA NOTES.

H.K.V.D.

THE COROKET!

My American Wife has been shown at the Coronet. It has more than ful filled all the anticipations. The verdict was forth- on "My American Wife" coming last night long before the time come for the jury' to "retire." It is good to get away from the atmosphere of most pictures and be transported for the nonce into the congenial environs of Buenos Aires, the capital of the Argen. tine Republic-the Paris of Latin Ame rica. And it is good and refreshing so a good "racy" picture--"razy the sporting sense of the term, particu larly as the public mind will soon be all- fed with gossip over the chances of the ponies at the Hongkong Jockey Club's Annual meeting-Fullowing My Ame rican Wife is that delightfal film show fog Charlie Chaplin in The Floor- walker."
