HUDDERSFIELD BELLRINGERS BAND. The visit of the above baud ou Thursday uext, December 7th, to Foxtou, should prove a great treat to residents ot the district. Champions in their art, the baud have had the honour of winning 13 contests out of 14, and now hold the title of Champions of Britain, which practically means the world. The baud has had the honour of appearing before the

late King Edward on two occasions, and he expressed his . appreciation of the magnificent/%, manner in which these Huddersfield working men have revived the oldest form of music the world knows. Besides playing popular airs the band's repertoire includes marches, hymn tunes and selections from the famous operas. After a remarkable run at the London Hippodrome the band were engaged by Messrs J. and N. Tait to tour Australia and New Zealand, and opened their tour at Christchurch like the famous Besies o’ the Barn, and so far, it is said, are meeting with great success. Assisting the band are several well known English artists, including Miss Eirlie, the charming young piauologuist, mimic and xylophonist ; Miss Lilian Bennett, the eminent soprano ; and Mr Geo. Campbell, the favourite humourist and xylophonist. Seats may be reserved at the Town Clerk’s office.
