N.Z. REGIMENTS AND GREECE
To perpetuate the memory of the New Zealand Division in Greece, i suggest that a march be composed taken from an old song, "The Maid of Athens," and used by one or two New Zealand regiments as tneir regimental march. It is a very nice tune, and also makes a good sow for the cornet. Having not hearu this song for 40 years, I think tne words start with:" "Maid of Athens, ere we part, give, oh, give me oacs my heart." SKIPPER MALTBY.
