The handling of the present issue of notes by the public Jeacls to confusion, and a Dominion note would overcome this. Also the tellers would appreciate thus alteration, as there would undoubtedly he a vast savin" of time' in sorting other banks notes every and all day long. The present system is certainly somewhat cumbersome,” states 4 ‘The Ibvnkei, ‘‘involving excessive sorting and exchanging.” One of the most serious education problems in New' Zealand—the numbei of young people fully qualified for professional oi* clerical positions, yet unable to find an avenue for their talents ;—was referred to by Mr. R.
