This account must be produced and shown to any visiting officer appointed by the Department. The pocket money provided for you weekly should be banked if not wanted for your personal use. You can open an account in any Post Office Savings Bank. It should be borne in mind that the relationship between the Department and yourself is relatively that of parent and son. The Department relies on you giving faithful and willing service to your employers, who should lie shown respect and obedience. In no case will you be allowed to leave your employment without the consent of the Department being first obtained.

The Department does not expect you to be entirely without fault, but it does expect you to be clean and tidy in your habits strictly honest in all your dealings and industrious and painstaking in your work. You should remember that the Department is always ready and willing to help you by affording advice and assistance. Any reasonable request will at once be granted.''
