The annual reunion of the Waikino Old Boys’ Association will take place in the Victoria- Hall, Waikino, next Friday. “Two examples'of how the Railway Department is rum” remarked an Invercargill business man to a Southland reporter. " I had occasion to visit Wyndham the other day. In the train I travelled by from Edendale there were five passengers. Less than an hour and p half after arriving at Wyndham another train came, puffing in from the same place. It carried no passengers.. The first train hal no freight aboard. Whether or not the second had I did not see. Instance number two. A friend of mine travelled from Christchurch to Invercargill the other day and encountered as many as three uniform-, ed ticket inspectors on the way down. Has the Department ever tried to find out what these inspectors save toem every year ? From my experience riding without}, a ticket is a rare offence in New Zealand.
