life with us is not one long rick- shaw ride. Next time you hear a ahouting in the street and aro nearly knocked over by a bullion broker's coolies, do not vont your anger on him, even if he looks as though he owned the President Hoover. Think rather of his frus- trated hopes and agony of mind, and remember that underneath that pretty buttonhole his heart may be as honvy as the silver

I do not suppose I shall address you again on this subject for the next fifteen or twenty years, but if I have dwelt to-day on the draw- backs of our profession, you may rest assured that next time I shall strike a more optimistic noto. 1 shall be just thinking of retiring, and must get someone to buy my |seat !--(Laughter and applause).

A Banker's View,

The speaker was fittingly thank- ed by Mr. Li Tse-fong, of the Bank of East Asin. who found a few things to say about bullion brok- стя. In the course of a brief but laughable address, Mr. Li remark- ed: As a bank manager I have to spend a lot of my time in interview ing brokers every morning, and many bankers consider that these interviews are a sheer wante of time. (Laughter), I, myself, con- alder that, sometimes, they are rather useful, if not helpful, be- chusu when business is slack their coming in and going out all the time gives the appearance of great activity (laughter) and when busi- ness is brisk their views on music, pianos (laughter), racing and golf gives me great relief in the ning's routine work which has to be done as quickly as possible.
