SYSTEM

American Express Travelers Cheques

Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES-

"The system of Travellors Cheques was originated in 1801 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the bolder the security of a letter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the choquea under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES' the world "Travellers' being spelled with one "L" The advantage of the Choques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system."

YOUTHFUL DANCERS.

MISS CAPELL'S PUPILS AT THE STAR THEATRE.

The talented dancing pupils of Miss Violet Capell scored another big success at the Star Theatre, Kowloon, on Saturday night, when play for the benefit of the Lon they gave their second dance dis-

don Hospital, before a large and appreciative audience. These charming annual performanceM are always looked forward to with the greatest interest. It inja. credit to Misa Capell that the de gree of perfection attained was so high, this being specially notic able when the elder girls were on the stage.

The programme was the same as Tenor that given at the Queen's Theatra a few days ago and those taking part acquitted themselves with the greatest success. As before, one of the outstanding Items wae' given by Cathleen Whelan who, in spite of her, tender years, por would have done credit to one formed acrobatics, in a way that much

older. Master George Jowitt was another very young performer who pleased the dience immensely.'
