If he likes a rari exidence, he can, clivose the Malar States. Promotion (as between Hong-Dagny, Nor. ss., 8., O.

When the cadet arrives in the traits, Malay States, or Hongkong, he rezivves saling at the rate of £as a year with fully termisked quar Lars. A cadet can just live comfortably on his pay, allowing himself such cheap amuse ments as lenni? chuck, or golf, but not riding, driving, or polo. He will perhaps do well not to play bridke or poker; there are many experts about Hongkong is said to be more extensive Sive than the traits; this would ap ly, to luxuries rather than to the necessat ey of life The general character of a cadet's eireer may be materially influenced by the Inguage that he

The "Malay" cadet, on arriving in the East, is attached to a tecretariat o Central

a town or station of some size. After a few months' ex erience he will probably find himself told off assist District Oficer, and he will thus et up in a class of work of which he is likely to see a good deal during the fir 15 years of his service. In the Straits Seulements there are no Assistant District Officers; in the Walay States, where the districts are of consider ble are the work may be divided up beteren several men. The pleasant side of a District Officer's work lies in its varied character and is be healthy nature of much of the outdor day; the roads me good, the people are generally civil, and there is a sense of inter/st and at herty in the fact that the District Officer is admia stering the goverment of a colon
