CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

MEETING AT MORRINSVILLE. The monthly meeting of the Mor- - rinsville Chamber of Commerce was held on Thursday evening. There was a good attendance. Mr E. McGregor presided. Mr F. Lye, M.P., wrote that he had interviewed the Minister of Justice in | reference to the appointment of a second policeman at Morrinsville. The inspector of Police had been asked for a report without delay. Mr J. Cameron, postmaster, wrote stating that arrangements had been made to forward a large portion of the letter mall to Morrinsville by the 11.30 p.m. train from Frankton each evening except Saturday. This would allow the postman to leave the office much earlier than at present. The question of a late fee posting box at Morrinsville is being considered by the postal authorities.
