VALUABLE TIME
As is harly necessary to mention, it is a frequent duty of masters (and officers) of ships visiting Hongkong to call at the Harbour Office with documents etc., for. the signature of either the Harbour Mas- ter or one of his subordinates. Accord ing to our information, which we have most invariarbly occurs that the masters. not the slightest reason to doubt, it al- or officers concerned are kept waiting for an unconscionably long time outside the door of the Assistant Harbour-Master's office before eventually they are accorded a little attention.

Of course, the obvious remedy would be for the persons kept waiting to take the bull by the horns and invade the sanctum anctorum without ceremony, determined and irresistible. But, strange as it may seem, the average shipmaster, when it comes to dealing with the "officer peo- ple," is both sensitive and delicate. "He is not of his element among typewriters and highly polished desks and the general air of ninviolable superiority that goes with any Government office, be it ever so humble; and is more than diffident about laying himself open to being told to "get outside and want."
