INTER-ISLAND FERRY
NEW NAME FOR SERVICE REQUEST FROM CANTERBURY [BT TELKGRArn —FRESS ASSOCIATION"! CHRISTCHURCH, Thursday Believing that the application of the word "ferry" to the steamer service between Wellington and Lyttelton conveys a wrong impression to tourists, thereby discouraging them from visiting the South Island, the executive of tho Canterbury Progress League decided to write to the Union Steam Ship Company suggesting that it find another name for the service. The service itself was highly praised, but the name, it was felt, should be improved.
