MAORI HILL TRAMS.

TO THE EUITOJi.

Sir, —I would like to express my appreciation of the convenience which the* Maori Hill trains offer to dwellers in that locality. There is one thing, however, which f cannot quite understand, and that is why the drivers of those trams insist on leaving the Maori Hill term..,us anywhere between two and three minutes ahead of lone. The tramway management has teen kind enough to erect a type-written timetable at the above-mentioned terminus, but it seems to mo to lie an unwritten law that the motormeu arrive at the terminus, change the pole mind, and start right away on the return hip, spending the extra two or three minutes which they are ahead of time at the loop in Highgato. Personally, I, have missed this tram on many occasions owing to the motonnen leaving before time. On other occasions I have made it my business to get there early, with my watch set to the tramway'standard'time, and have hoarded the tram, which left minutes before time. This has been going on tor some considerable time, Sundays and Mondays alike. the nbovementioned time-table is correct and up to date, which I believe it is, then it would he an additional convenience to Maori Hill dwellers if the drviers of those trams would only stick hard and fast to the time-table drawn up by their own management.—l am, etc., Punctual.
