From Messrs. Wright, Stephenson and Company, Ltd., Christchurch, to the District Traffic Manager, Christchurch:— We wish to express our appreciation of the assistance rendered to us by the Railway Department in Show Week. In our duties of supervising the transportation of the North Island stock exhibits to and from the Royal Show at this end we were greatly assisted by the attention received from both the transport office and Addington staff.

In connection with a school excursion run from Putaruru to Rotorua recently the Secretary of the Arapuni School Committee forwarded the following letter to the Stationmaster at Rotorua:— Dear Sir,—On behalf or the Arapuni School Committee I have to thank you for your untiring efforts to make our school excursion a success. We had a most enjoyable day, and all arrangements (made by you) were carried out without a hitch or accident of any kind. This trip constitutes probably a record in the way of excursions as we have not been able to rake up a single complaint. Again thanking you for your efforts on our behalf.

I remain, yours faithfully,


(Sgd.)
