THE CIVIC LEAGUE
TRAINS ON ORAKEI LINE The monthly meeting of the Civic League was held in the Girls' Diocesan Association rooms yesterday afternoon, the president, Mrs. Kenneth Gordon, presiding.

The letter informed the league that the Railway Department had decided, as a trial, to run two additional trains on the line, the continuance of which would be conditional upon suificient support being accorded. Tho Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals wrote thanking the league for its -valuable interest in the society and its protests against what it considered the inadequacy of punishment meted out to a recent offender. A letter was also received from the Minister of Justice with regard to the same matter.
