To the Editor of the "Norta-Cnina Dairy News."
Sir,—The closing of the British Pest office in Shanghai removes a landmark of which we Britons have all been proud, and the disappearance of which will cause deep regret in the heart of many of us. 1 think that all who have had occasion to use the British Post Office will agree with me that we invariably received from the Chinest staff great courtesy, efficient service and attention, and my object in writing to you is to suggest that we Britons might club together, and show to the Chinese staff of the British Post Office, in some substantial manner, that we have not been unmindful of the courtesies and service we have received at their hands in all the years of their service, I fee] sure that such recognition of their services would not only be apprecia ated by the Chinese who have served in tha British Post Office, but would have a good effect on others.
