Description: 1) That story of those Kangaroos was Fair Dinkum - It was fun too.
Kangaroo hunting in Levin? You wouldn't read about it! "But I am telling you it was a fact--fair dinkum! I wouldn't put you crook." Coaxing a story from these old timers is like delving your hand into a lucky dip at Christmas time. You don't know what you are going to get, or even if you will get anything at all. But whatever happens you can guarantee there is a surprise in store.

2) League of mothers offers guidance, companionship.
The League of Mothers was founded in New Zealand in 1926 by Lady Alice Fergusson. It is strictly undenominational and is open to all women.

3) Our front page.
The front page of this commemorative supplement has been designed to present in pictorial form the growth of Levin from bush settlement to thriving town.

4) Newspaper has served town for over half a century.
Throughout the borough's 50 years and before, Levin has been served by a newspaper. During these years the Press has faithfully recorded the events of the day and with the growth of the town the newspaper has also expanded and kept abreast with the most modern developments in the industry.
