Junior Nationalists Go "Back To Childhood"
Undeterred by conditions far from tropical, a large percentage of Levin's younger set left warm fires and the attraction of cosy beds to don garments of every cohpeivable (and inconceiva^e) style to. be suitably attired for the Le'yin Junior Nation al Party's "Back to Childhood" dance last night. In wheelbarrows, prams and .suchlike they eame, 70 per cent being in fancy dress of some sort. Big girls came as little girls and husky .fpptb.allem.,as,,babes. .. The M.C. was Mf. w. tiembierg and Mr. B. J. Antcliff, chairman of the Levin National Party, and Mrs. Anteiiff were the judges. After a grand parade the winners were ' announced as best dressed boy: Colin Pescini, who looked most "attractive" being wheled into the hall in a pushchair, smoking a large pipe; best dress.ed girl, Isobel Pattersbn, attired as a most realistic Huck'eberry FimV complete with shangai and penny sucker. Dancing, was of course, the big item on the programme and during the evening an attractive ' supper was served.
