CHINA TO LEARN OF U. S.
BY HUGE MOVIE PROJECT
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 6.-Chow Tsu-
Chi, former premier of China. who has
just completed a tour of the United
states begun last October, has an
nounced the formation of a new cor
poratfon intended to bring to China,
through the mediums of the moving
picture and American business meth
ods, an aid to the renaissance which
the former minister believes is i'm
pending in the orient.
The new organization, Chow Tsu-
Chi said. will seek to provide the
schools of China with films that will
show occidental progress-to substi-
tute for the bleary picture of the
wild west, prevalent in China, a more
realistic version of modern America.
Nine Chinese financiers of promi-
nence, with Chow Tsu-Chi at their
head, will form part of the corpora
ton and American financiers the
remainder. Among the latter are
a. J. Drexel Biddle. jr., of Phila-
delphia: NJ. r. Poucher, director Of
the E. 1. du Pont De Nemours & Co.
and Francis p. Garvan, former alien
property custodian of New York.
The Chinese financiers were dinner
guests of William F. Carey, president
of the China society.
The oriental development project
has been chartered in Delaware un-
der the name of the China Enter
prises. Inc. and, in addition to open
ing 1000 motion picture houses In
China, 1t will engage in virtually
every form OF commercial activity.

PALM BEACH. Fla, January A.
Nothing could have been more per-

Master 1923 to Palm Beach society.
Since the new year is usually pictured
as a youngster with no false modesty
about him it was just as we'll for his
debut here that the cold wind which
has made the sun hunters" shiver
ever since Christmas decided to de-
camp with 1922 and make way for the
usual mild weather and gentle breezes
of the gulf stream.
The sun shone this day in all his
glory and the island never looked
more beautiful in its setting of blue
water. All the yachts anchored in
placid little Lake Worth flung out
their gayest colors from the mast
heads and made a brave showing,
while the women of the colony who
dark woolens these cool days sailed
forth also in their lightest and most
colorful rigging.

Since the day was so mild and the
ocean so inviting the beaches were
crowded. And here is a hint for those
who are about to make their first
visit to Palm Beach. Be careful in
choosing your bathing suit to see that
1t has at least two pieces and other

the almost mid-Victorian Casino rules
While the rest of the world gayly dis

Portable for swimming, here at the

those alleged proprieties known as
stockings. Yes. you must wear them
II you appear at the casino beach or
pool And they must. moreover, be
long ones so that not a hint of the
sinful flesh of ones neither eXtremi-

Legs are taboo, unless they be of silk.
On purely esthetic grounds there may be
something TO this.
