GROWTH OF TOO H
FIRST DOMINION FESTIVAL GOVERNOR-GENERAL ATTENDS [BY TELEGBAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION] WELLINGTON, Monday The progress of the Toe H movement in New Zealand was demonstrated by the crowded attendance of members and friends in the Wellington College Memorial Hall on Saturday night to celebrate the first Dominion festival. The Governor-General, Lord Bledisloe, patrOn of the New Zealand Toe H, and Lady Bledisloe were the chief guests and, in accordance with the traditions of the movement, all present joined as a family in Ringing and good fellowship.

The speakers were Lord Bledisloe, the Rev, Herbert Leggate, visiting padre from English headquarters, and Dr. F. T. Bowerbank, Wellington regional chairman.
