INCREASED TRAM FARES.
A LARMING POSJTIOX. The hint of the Retiring Chairman of the Tramway Board. Mr. 1). Sykes, that the Board will shortlv have to still further increase tl.e tram fares makes serious reading for the large army of workers and others who at the solution is in their own hands, for in a city like Christchurch, with its flat roads, dependence on the trams is not necessary at all. Up-to-date new bicycles can lie secured from the Butler Cycle Works. 605 Colombo Street, for as low as £lO 10s. and Second-hajjd Machines can be obtained for £5 only. That is practically the onl v cost of a bicycle because the maintenance charges are very little. Besides, if you haven *l the readv caj=h vou can secure a machine from rh«= Butler Orel© Works on very Easy Time Payments. Tt-’s certainly much cheaper than using the trams_ 471
