LEAVING FOR HOME
A THIRD-CLASS . RECORD
When the motor liner Eangitane leaves Wellington on Saturday for Southampton and London, via Panama,' she will take awa.y what is probably; -the largest number of third class pasBongers to leave New Zealand since the/war. She has booked 341 third-class passengers; The Kangitata, when she left Wellington, last month, took just over 290' third-class passengers for Home. Third-class travel has become increasingly popular during tho past few yeaiß, owing mainly to the greater comfort provided in this class. The Eangitano- is almost- full in the first and second classes. Many New Zcalanders leave for England in March and April, some going to Australia to connect with ships that call at Suez, and others leaving from Wellington and Auckland, and travelling via Panama.
