Having no responsibility they have esprit de corpe and do not care what puns happens to any one else, as long as they have a good time. To ensure this, they make up their own partice and tura every public show into a set of clique. I went out to watch a dance at the Repulse Bay Hotel the other day. The music was intoxicating, the some delight ful, but each little table represented & solitary little island in a sea of pleasure. Many of the parties on these little islands know each other intimately and moved in the same social acts, but for the time being the other might have been in Mars for all the notice they took of each other. It was frightfully amusing to any one looking on, but it made the snow cold for any chance participator. People may contend that this exclusiveness is necessary at public places. Granted, but why carry it through everywhere at the Yacht Club, as races, and even in private clubs 2

I am deeply conscious, that a series of INDO-CHIN articles such as I have written since my return may discount my criticism on the ground that I always have a grouse at some thing, but I could draw attention to the fact that amug contentment in a most unhealthy state of mind.. Divine EE Biesmalip Discontent is a very good name for that force which strives, however hopelessly, after perfection. People opt here say "Why worry Hongkong is good enough for me." Be it is, it is good enough for anybody. Any place is! But if one reste content with everything as he finds it you might as well say: I'm quite good enough, for this world. I don't need to worry." None of us are good enough and we have to go on being discontented
with ourselves and our characters; and, for the matter of that with our surround ings, talees we want to degenerate into vegetable existence, or be left behind in the procession of life. I am profoundly optimistic about progress in Hongkong, and I saw sure that any one who goes, away for three years will hardly, recog nize social conditions when he come back. The old diehards will either have gone away or gone under, or more likely decided to move with the times and welcome with open arms the newer, freer and wider outlook of the new man and the new woman.

The realization of the conditions of these refugees makes one feel sick and faint, but the feeling of futility and helplessness one has before the enormity of the want must not ip any way be allowed to detract from one'i efforts to help.
