Rabaul, Dec. 34.

A NEW company, under the name of the Rabaul Freezer Limited, has opened a new ice works in conjunction with a butchery business. It is situated in the vicinity of the Rabaul electric

light works.

Its advent has caused a reduction in meat prices and ice prices are down 25 per cent. The service in connection with these commodities is improved, as orders are now delivered to customers, and the doors are open all day instead of for only a few hours each day. Which goes to show the value of competition.
