POSTAGE STAMP CHANGE.
' To the Editor. Sib,—Will you allow me through the medium of your columns to ask the railway authorities how it fa that the travelling public cannot get the l current coin of the realm as change when getting a ticket instead of having postage stamps foisted on them when they have no earthly use for them, and if they object are told very curtly it is their business to have change ? Su' ely a station like Duntdin might accommodate the public in a small matter like this. I have seen stations where the traffic is rather in excess of Dunedin tendering proper change, and in less time than it takes the ticket clerk to tear off the stamps. Ido think that public servants should try to accommodate the public in small matters.—l am, &c, Proper Change. Dunedin, August 3.
