LEVIN MUSIC CLUB

. -v — ENJOYABLE EVENING On Tuesday last, the Levin Music Club held its first meeting in the Presbyterian Hall. Formerly members had met in private homes, but as the club has grown so rapidly it was decided to hold a trial evening in a hall. The president, Miss A. Aim, welcomed a large number of members and guests and Mrs. W. O. Neas -and Miss J. Munro acted as hostesses. During the evening Miss Aim made reference to the departure of Mr.s. A. G.
