Wihen the 'first 100 per cent. Maori guard was mounted, it received orders that cyclists were not allowed to pass the sentry without dismounting, and that if cyclists did not dismount on their own account they were to be assisted to do so. It happened that the first customer was a W.A.A.C., and the guard sergeant personally attended to her dismounting. She did not like it. At least that was the impression the sergeant got. In fact, it seemed that she had definite opinions on the subject.
