have acquired money in this period

Offices meanwhile find themselves dealing
with many strange people. who are un-
familiar with life aboard ship. 1t is often
necessary to explain the most elemen-
tary things concerning ships life.
richly dressed lady entered one of
the steamship offices the other day and
asked the prices of the most expensive
suites. She seemed Unsuitable in asking
questions about every detail of their fur
nishing and service. The patience of the
booking clerk was wel-nigh exhausted
After the cabins had been fully explained
the prospective customer turned to the
portholes. 1t was explained that the
ports were all the same size and that
even by paying a higher rate she could
not have larger windows.
How far are these windows above
