SHIPPING MOVEMENTA,
A representative of the Hong Kong Daily Press yesterday visited the Hong Kong & Whampoa Docks, and was much interested to see the Empress of Japan in the dry dock. just as the water was being let into the dock to float, the steamer, after it having been thoroughly overhaul- ed and repainted by the Dock Com- pany. He was told that the Em- press of Asia which was at one of the Company's wharves nearby would be immediately floated into the dock for overhaul after the removal of the Empress of Japan.
Doubtless many people would be amazed to see the extensive plant of the Hong Kong & Whampoa Dock Company and to know how well they are equipped for handling such large vessels.

Formerly, when character actors have worn spectacles, reflections of light have made lenses impossible, and so only rims, without glass, could be used.
Herbolt, making up for his role of the old German grocer, in Un ashamed, had lenses made of cel- luloid, and dulled" enough to give them a non-reflecting surface, though they still wore transparent. They can't shoot" reflection. light into the camera lens-and still the eyes can be seen through them Which, cameramen say, is almost as important a discovery as that of ranchromatic make-up.
