MAGISTRATE’S COURT.
Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, April 19. Holding that service stations came within the meaning of a motor garage, Mr Page, S.M., to-day dismissed informations against John Buckleton of working at his calling in a public place on Sunday. Mr Buckleton, who is director of an oil company, drove a tank waggon from the bulk stores and replenished the supplies at the company’s service station on the Ilutt Road.* He did not regard this as a work of necessity, but the Act expressly excludes persons employed in a garage, and Mr Page held that Mr Buckleton was entitled to renew the petrol supply.
