Another example of the difficulty that some public servants experience in filling in their official hours is furnished by a return made to a local firm by a taxing department (states the Oamaru Mail), rne Department forwarded a debit for £46 9s 9d, but subsequently a clerk having meantime furbished up his arithmetic, an amended claim was sent for £46 9s lid. Jhe form, like all official communications, is a formidable one and occupied no little time in completion, whilst the envelope enclosing it bore a two penny stamp. Another phase of departmental economy.
