“SAME OLD STORY”
NO LICENCE FOR HIS CAR TEACHER BEFORE COURT Julian Brook Bell, a school teacher ■of Puriri, was charged with having no driver’s licence and no licence for his car, at Tuesday’s sitting of the Thames Police Court. “The excuse he gave me,” said Traffic Inspector G. A. R. Ferguson, “was that, being a school teacher, he had little time to spare and had no chance to get to Thames to register the car.” • “Of course,” said Mr W. H. Freeman, S.M., with a smile, “school teachers have so little time off. Everything is left to the last minute.” Bell was fined £1 and ordered to pay 16s costs for having no licence for the car, and was fined 10s, with 12s court costs, on the other charge. Claude Elliot, of Omahu, was fined 16s and ordered to pay 12s court costs for having no warrant of fitness for his car.
