The Royal Agricultural Society of New Zealand, at its annual meeting yesterday, placed on record its continued devotion and loyalty to the British Throne. Mr L. Maclean said that, in view of the fact that this was the Jubilee year of Their Majesties’ reign, he felt they should take the opportunity of expressing their loyalty to the Throne. “We have seen empires collapse and thrones crumble, but I trust our glorious British Empire will go on for ever,” said Mr Maclean. “Our King and Queen are a wonderful inspiration, and they have played a large part in the peace of the world ; long may they live.” Mr Maclean's sentiments were endorsed by the meeting. The Railway Department’s advertisement in connection with the issue of cheap fares and train arrangements to the races at Levin on Saturday, June 29, appears in to-day’s paper. The special trains provided to and from Levin at suitable hours for race patrons will bo much appreciated.
