This applicant at first sight is not impressive. She is short, only moderately good-looking, and slightly common-place looking. But she has a particularly eager and enthusiastic manner; almost fervent, she seems to be full of intellectual curiosity, with something of the spirit of adventure in her. Her intellectual acquirements are good; and she has had adequate professional experience of a good kind.
If her enthusiasm of manner is translated into energy of action, she is sure to do well. If I had been taking the interview alone, I should have hesitated to make a strong recommendation in her favour, owing to her lack of personal distinction. But Mr. Taner is perfectly satisfied with her, and holds that she is precisely the kind of lady whom they want in Hong Kong. He knows the requirements. He rates her very much higher than the applicants whom he had recently seen further south, and holds that she should be accepted at once.
