Department's Services Appreciated.

Trainers with horses attending the recent Te Kuiti Racing Club's meeting speak highly of the consideration and attention shown them by railway officials there, particularly Mr. Douglas Law, formerly of Pukekohe and now assistant stationmaster at Te Kuiti, who had charge of the unloading of horses. Instead of the horses being taken to Te Kuiti and having to be walked back to the racecourse as in former years, they are now unloaded at Te Kumi, and installed in loose-boxes until required to be taken to the course. These efforts on the part of the Department to popularise this mode of transport are much appreciated by owners and trainers in general.—”N.Z. Sporting and Dramatic Review.
