S.K. and M.K. will not expect to get letters oftener than 

 6 weeks or 2 months apart, although oftentimes the same address will 

 permit of more frequent deliveries. When M.K. approaches Singa- 

 pore she will race her letters both ways by putting on "via Colombo" 

 and "via Kong Kong" respectively. This will make her feel childish 

 and happy. 



Presents "by mail or express to or from persons in foreign 

 parts are expensive nuisances to the respective recipients on ac- 

 count of reforwarding charges, customs annoyances, and in the case 

 of the traveller, lack of space in trunks. Short letters or 

 postals are quite sufficient. The shorter and oftener the better 

 both ways: time is long but postage is comparatively cheap. 



If M.K. loses her letter of credit, American Express 

 checks or Cook's notes, she will cable Meddisc, so that payment 

 on them can be stopped- S.K. has a list of the numbers on these 

 pieces of paper, and has given the list to H.K. 



In case of any difficulty M.K. will go to the British 

 Consul. If there is no British Consul, or if she has heard good 

 report of the American Consul, she will go to the latter. 



People who leave home for a long trip enjoy themselves so 

 much that they forget that those at home look forward to certain 

 dates. The moral of this is that those at home should not so 

 look forward. 



Amendments to these "Assumptions" will be made by parties 

 concerned only on grave provocation, and will s*S(ate such amendments 

 two months before using them. There are 6 copies of these "As- 

 sumptions" distributed to the following persons: G.G.K., H.K. , 

 I.G.B., M.A.I. , M.K. and S.K.
