The Barrymores bring the charac- ters to virtual life. John is a brilliant figure as the debonair Prince Chegadir, Ethel Barrymore offers a BANGKOK

and hence she plays it with a depth CALUUTTA of understanding and knowledge that CANYON at once stamps the performance as

"The Good Companions" Jcasle Matthews owes a dent of her РОСССИЯ ска her perseverance and determination. She was not born with the proverbial allver afoon in her mouth, in fact her parents were working-class folk. Her hien in things theatrical was to catch the managerial eye, and Jessie did it with a vengeance.

Andre Charlot was giving an audi- tion of chorus girls for his new revue.

An the hours flow by, Jessie chafed at being kept waiting, and stepping out of the queue demanded of Charlot what he meant by keeping her all that time. While the theatri cal staff waited for the thunderbolt to fall, Charlot smiled, asked her name, and told her she could con- eider herself engaged,

WORLD CRISIS

A WAY OUT

By FREDERICK COPE, A.M.I.E.E.`

Mr. Cope's striking articles on the world economic crisis which were recently published in the Hongkong Telegraph are now available in pamphlet form.

One of the features, repaying study, is the close similarity between the plan of reform suggested by this total writer, and certain aspects of the Roosevelt recovery programme. The author's ideas are naturally far too advanced for active promotion at the present time, but they are particularly Interesting in view of the fact that President Roosevelt, in striking out on a path of his own, has travelled in the same direction..

The pamphlet one of forty-four pages and can be obtained from the South China Morning Post at a cost of
