BIND OF HOPE WIND-UP.
Te Awamutu has a nourishing Band of Hope. Mrs Wilson, President of W.C.T.U., is also its President. They are a very enthusiastic society. Though the Premier was speaking this night at the local Theatre, over 200 adults and children gathered to the last meeting There were eighteen items from the bairns and three from adults. An excellent address from the Vicar, Mr Trill, with illustrative diagrams showing the effect of alcohol on lesser creatures and on several organs in a man’s body, was very fine indeed. Keen interest was maintained throughout the programme. Mr Bayne, who was N.Z. Ex-Light-Heavy-weight Champion Wrestler, gave items on his steel guitar and mandoline with Maori songs. The children’s ovation nearly raised the roof. Mr Bayne is a vi*ry fine specimen of young manhood, a nonsmoker and non-drinker, very musical and a clean, good sport, whom we were pleased to have with us.
