There is low of the spirit of masket, and the once impenetrable force uphold- ing old custom has been gradually over. come, by the combined influence of the war and the new roads. The new roads, though the lesser of the two factors, are mera direct and more visible in their reactions upon local conditions. Besides making life more interesting they have pointed a very valuable moral- They are, of course, the outcome of the coming of the motor car. People wanted room to meye and they began to realize that tchange, was possible and that the limite of the past need not be the limits of the present or future. All sorts of possibi- litics for expansion bave materialized with the opening of new roads, Prin cipally we have learned that when the demand is strong enough, the facilities for meeting those demands are forthcoming.

Enterprising souls became tired of chair and ricanas. They imported car-and there you are!

The Peak in summer and our cold, Winter in Hongkong used to be our only claim to being a better ale to go to, than the Straits of Colombo, for they had motor roads and lovely drives. Now we can compete on these lines as well; and there is no reason why we should not attract sight-seers and travellers in ever- instateing numbers, if we only keep up with other places in other directions as well as improving our roads, and our hotels

We want, of course, to maks our social. life more interesting and broader, and there is not the faintest doubt, that now i that the war is over and a new type of iman has beed i evolved, & this revolution (will take place, as naturally as the new 19 ronds came, and with much less trouble and expense. Hongkong socially ia just a little bit fab, but the new players in the game will soon tune it up to concert pitch and make life a pleasanter, and more interesting affair. Our man-power in the past was recruited from raw material fresh 'from schools and colleges, who, without any contact with society For men and women of affairs, came out and slipped into their waiting jobs, ünder the protecting care of a paternal Government, or teipan. Their future contact with the outer world depend- ed almost entirely upon short leave [of six months duration, three months: of which time were spent on board ship among people of the same type and same interests as themselves.

At the most a temporary brightening up could be expocted. Soon, under the influence of the old routine, the mind slipped back into the old narrow vision.

Most of them went from office or from schools and universities while they were still at the receptive age: They saw preconceived notions of warfare and the intest inventions, of a few years ago thrown; aaide like chaff, to give way to. anything that gave an extra chance of success, in the bitter struggle. Old prin-

ciples and theories were continually being discredited. Men with big reputa tions were replaced by men with none. Reconstruction was the order of the day old social distinctions vanished for the time. being and the lesson of force and gonal chances for all was learned. Men who have learned these lemons are coming to Hongkong in ship-loads, even the Army indifferent from what it was before the war.
