BUSINESS NOTES

A notice appears in the advertising columns calling for applications for the right to erect and conduct a hostel | within the Tongariro National Park. The question of providing suitable accominodation for tourists and visitors to this park is a matter which has, we understand, presented many difficulties 1 and at a recent meeting of the board it was decided to give effect to the modern idea of allowing private enterprise to supply certain services under ■ a reasonable contract. The lease conferring the right to erect the hostel is ■for a term of 42 years with safeguarding provisions in the public interests, including a power of resumption after ;2l years, upon payment of compensai tion to the lessee. LOW-PRICED HOMES. Special attention is directed to Mr ; John D. Brechin ’s new lis. in this paper ; of easy-to-buy houses that are not highpriced. A prospective purchaser should not let this opportunity pass.
