A grand musical festival will be given in the Garrison Hall, Dunedin, on Good Friday night, when the programme will be contributed to by Mr. Philip Newbury, Madame Emily Spada, Mrs. R. A. Power, Miss Mabel Esquilant, Miss Dora Emery, and Mr Max Scherek. With such an array of talent, patrons can expect a very fine musical treat.... In connection with the forthcoming visit of H.M.S. New Zealand early in April, the Railway Department proposes to give school children an opportunity of viewing and inspecting the vessel. With this object in view school excursion trains at school excursion rates will be run to the ports at which the vessel calls to suit the requirements of scholars. The battle cruiser will probably visit Lyttelton, Timaru, and Port Chalmers, spending about a week in each port. Holiday excursion tickets will be issued at suitable dates to enable ordinary passengers to visit the ship
