March 1932
Fading Away
The Old Town House is rapidly fading away. The entire roof has been stripped and when all the shopkeepers have cleared out the work of demolition will proceed with even greater rapidity.Even to the extreme sentimentalists the present dilapidated appearance of the old building has caused it to lose most of its former attractiveness and as it gradually fades out of sight so will it fade from memory.

Song of the Past
"Down Memory Lane" is the title of what should prove an attractive entertainment to be given in Broughty Ferry on Wednesday evening under the auspices of the Broughty Castle Burns Club. Within the scope of the concert will come most of the songs, choruses, music hall "hits" etc of past years and a score of local artists have promised their services. Mr Donald Ross is to be at the piano and a jolly evening seems assured.
Cold Spell
Dundee shared in the general cold snap that prevailed all over the country on Monday. It was cold enough for snow, but the snow seemed reluctant to spoil the mild winter's record and it held off. Had it been an ordinary winter, Monday's cold would have passed practically unnoticed but, in view of the prevailing mildness the cold spell was generally regarded as of Arctic keenness.
