"Truth " Sales Service And Motor Transport

The motor service companies operating: m New Zealand to-day provide safe a*nd efficient means of transport .at reasonable cost, and m many parts of the country — especially those districts where rail and steamer services are unsatisfactory—the motor traffic has proved a boon and a blessing to travellers and others who find it necessary to use the.- service for the 1 rapid transport of goods and necessities. .''Truth's" sales service has always been maintained at a high standard of efficiency, and the motor has been requisitioned m those parts of the North Island where other means of transport have proved unsuitable. The districts between Napier, Gisborne, East Cape and around Rotorua are now served by the service ca,rs, enabling readers m those more or less isolated parts to obtain their copy of "The People's Paper" days earlier m some cases than m the past. Improved roads m tarred macad em over mountainous routes .enable powerful charabancs to carry passengers and goods where pack horses once struggled through mud and' 1 slime for days at a time. : The successor to the old coach driver, who spent many weary "days driving six m hand over terrible roads, now purrs along at 40 miles an hour with his passengers, mails, and bundles of "Truths" as the driver of. a service car-de-luxe.
