THELMA PETERSEN CONCERT.

Miss Tbelma Petersen, the talented New Zealand contralto, is to appear at a concert on Monday next at the Foxton Town Hall. Miss Petersen who is quite young, has already gained great popularity on the concert platform, and all the concerts that have been arranged on her behalf have created special interest and have all been largely attended. A number of ladies and musical people of Eoxtou are interesting themselves in the young singer to help to make the concert a success.
