ANNIVERSARY DAY CHEAP TRAINS.
To the Editor of the Olobe, Sir, —Having seen by advertisement in your valuable paper of Saturday last that the Government intend running trains on the 16th December at single fares, I would ask your aid in obtaining free passes for children on that day, the same as were obtained on a previous anniversary day; for, as my “ Mary” says, that what with the high price of meat, and buying some new things for herself and six children, it will be almost beyond our means to go for a day's journey if this boon is not granted, and she slyly remarks that the train must run whether the children go or not, if it is only to take the members of the Provincial Council to examine their own estates, and the public works in the outlying districts. Yours, Ac,, A FATHER,
