(By TcSegranh.) (Special to ."The Evening Post.") • ■• DUNEDIN, This Day. The history of a motor-lorry which arrived at Dunediii a few days ago affords some idea of tho way. lorries are cutting into the railway services. The lorry left Cliristchurch with a load of merchandise for Dunedin, and presumably other centres. : Arriving at Dunedin, the goods wore placed direct in merchants' warehouses. The lorry then quickly reloaded for Christchurcli and towns en route. Little time wasjost on the run down, and a quick start was made on tlie. return journey. Advantages compared with steamer and rail are a saving of double handling, and goods go direct from warehouse to warehouse. '
