“ STAR" APPRECIATED AT CONSTRUCTION CAMPS.
Writing from Tioroa, a Public Works Department camp on the Westport Inangahua Junction railway line, a correspondent of the “Star” states: “It must please the manager of your paper to know how your editions of the ‘Star’ are appreciated. Just imagine, during the past few months, the number of local subscribers has risen from three to slightly over fifty papers per day. “There is just one wild rush for our local storekeeper’s shop at knock-off time for the paper. It is really wonderful to know that the 'Star” printed in Christchurch tonight will be in our hands by tomorrow at mid-day—a truly wonderful act of enterprise. Two hundred and forty-five miles is the distance between the two places.”
