HOW COOK-BOYS "SQUEEZE"

TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY,

INFERIOR TEA FOR

LIPTON'S

The substitution of an inferior quality of tea for Lipton's ten by

a servant was revealed before Mr. Schofield at the Central Pollec Court this morning when a cook- boy of 11, Leighton Hill Road was charged with theft of a tin of Lipton's tea, valued at $2.60.

The defendant pleaded guilty to the charge. According to Deter. tive Sergeant Kennedy, he had been working at 11, Leighton Hill Road for five and a half years as cook-boy, at a monthly wage of $28, On Tuesday the mistress of the house went to the compradore and purchased a tin of Lipton's tea which, on her return to the house, she handled to the defend

ant.

The following morning whilst the complainant was having break- fast with her husband, she found the tea tasted much inferior to

Lipton's. Without saying any thing to the "hoy," she herself made another pot of ten from the tin she had purchased, but found that that also had an inferior taste and flavour to that which she had used in the past.

The tin was then taken to

The in found to bo only half full, with a quantity of paper at the bottom. The police were informed and in a search of the house they found the genuine ten hidden away in the coalhoune.

The complainant, said the officer, had been suspicious of the defendant since he commenced work, as there had been shortages in other household articles.

When questioned by the police, the defendant said the inferior ten had been collected by him when he worked for Europeans in Kowloou. A fine of $50, or six weeks' hard. labour was imposed.

A now motor bus service been started in the New Territorios, inaugurating a half-hourly servico between Fanling and Taipo Market.

question, thanked the members of the House of Lords for their approval of the Report.

He thought it was unnecessary to press for carly consideration of the Report because it would be dis cussed at Geneva well before the end of the month, and he did not think that the Government could be expected for the present to make a definito pronouncement.

He pointed out that nothing could be done by the League effectively unless unanimity was secured and it would be Impossible to secure unanimi- ty if all countries were to commit themselves in advance by making such a statement of policy.
