Donald Arthur Hassell, aged 20, a farm hand, employed by Mr. T. Gregory, of Mangahoe, was injured yesterday when the bicycle he was riding skidded aud he was thrown heavily, injuring his shoulder.

Palmerston North citizens should be very jmoud of their wonder violinist, Alan Lovedav. This little chap has been engaged to play with 2YA orchestra (Miss Ava Symons leading), at a charity concert in Wellington on Thursday night and his items will include Wieniawski’s “JSchcnzo Tarantelle,” “Round of the Goblins” and Krcisler’s “Old Refrain.” Alan practised with the orchestra yesterday in Wellington, and the members wero thrilled with the splendid progress ho is making. This was his first experience with an orchestra and his acceptance of the situation was almost uncanny. Wellington musicians considered it worth w'hile to orchestrate his selections for him and were amazed at his artistry and the ease with which he can tackle intricate positions and double-stoppiDg.
