MOTOR CAR SERVICE.
Connecting Rotorua and Taupo.
A company has been formed and registered in Auckland under the name of •'The Rotorua Motor Coaching Company, Limited," for the purpose of running passenger and mail motor-cars between Rotorua and Taupo and other parts of the district adjacent to Eotorua. The capital of the company is £10,000. Four cars are at present running in the Eotorua-Taupo service, and there is a daily service to Waimangu and Waiotapu. It is proposed to put on two more cars almost smmediately, and by next year it is expected to have a dozen or more in commission, and to be thus able to extend the service. The cars at present running between Rotorua and Taupo {one leaving each place every morning) are able to cover the distance in about half the ordinary coaching time.
