It was unanimously decided to organise a concert to take place in the Town Hall on Wednesday, Juno 3rd. The eight hands taking part will include the Tramways, Waterside Workers, Mission, Salvation Army, New Zealand Natives, Patriotic Society, Newtown Salvation Army, and Treutham Military. Tho evening’s entertainment will include selections and marches by individual bands and several massed cd band pieces will bo played. Tickets will be on sale almost immediately. Mr A. J. Mills was elected chairman and Mr W. A. Baker hon.- secretary.
