THANKS. The management of S.O.S. Motors wish to thank the travelling public for their support during the last 44 years. We have always aimed to give GOOD j SERVICE by employing only reliable drivers and utilising first-class touring * ears only—NO CHARABANCS. For the convenience of passengers 3 we have now opened in Hawera a CENTRALLY SITUATED BOOKING OFFICE in Princes Streto (sub-leased 1 from the Eginont Hotel) in which we 5 have our own -telephone installed: ’phone number 341. , i This is in addition to our USUAL DEPOT at CRITERION GARAGE, Regent Street (Lysons, .

('phone 341), and another driver has .. the ’phone at his residence, e/o Air Blake (’phone 219), so that INTENDING PASSENGERS can book at any time of the day or night. REDUCED FARES. s S.O.S. have not been COMPELLED BY COMPETITION, as some people think, to reduce the fare: it is a natural outcome of our expansion. Having now a much more frequent service wo can deal with increased passenger traffic, and we knew from the popularity of our WAN GANUI-WELLINGTON service (130 miles for £1) that reduced fares on the Hawera section would bring INCREASED PATRONAGE.
