NK Just Arrived ffl JtHEZ "Meet me tonight at the Rate to The Great World," Is a favorite phrase In Shanghai today. Does It mean a delve Into oriental mystic ism? So. Indeed' Quite the con-1 trary. "The Great World" Is the tint American-stylo amusement park in China and Is proving fully as popular as are these recreation re torts In America. Styles in the Celestial Kingdom aro chancing. First came tho cut ting off of queues, then the adoption ot western dress. Chinese boys and girls who come here to study In our universities, carry back to their satlve land the customs adopted whllo here and It Is only a question ot decades. before China will be quite modernised. The opening of 'Tho Great World" marks another step in this direction. Youth Is youth the world over and young China Is as keen for an aerial railway ride as Is young America. Holler skating is a present crato In Shanghai and the park rink is al ways crowded. A foreign restau rant with real knives and forks and serving only foreign foods Is a great attraction. Race courses, thrillers, soo, souvenir booths and concert stalls are stormed by crowds ot ager patrons In Just tho same fash Ion as In America, wbllo the movies mark the crest of popularity and bid fair to do more efficient work In weaning China from her centuries old customs than all that teachers and missionaries have accomplished, and In short order. However. China Is still the real "mystcsious East" and a most at tractive goal for tourists. The fact that European travel Is discouraged from Washington and frowned on by Europe, has added volume to l'aclflc travel. Trans-Pacific boats hac been sorely taxed to accommodate all who would visit tho Orient. This strain Is now relieved by tho return to regular scrvlco ot tho Canadian Pacific fleet of Whlto Empresses which were withdrawn to sorvo as trans-Atlantic transports. Doing built for warm weather, they wcro found Impractlcablo for winter serv ice on tho Atlantic and nre now ply ing regularly between Vancouver and tho Far East. Although western st)les threaten the quaint customs ot China, visitors to that country may still enjoy to their hearts' content the wondrous temples, marble bridges, rich pat&ccs. formal gardens and queer nooks and corners that were, until recently, a sealed book except to those who wero born within the shadow ot the great wall.
