pRUMsTlcKs FOR BASS DRUMS.
Old style with stuffed Head, Modern
with Head of Felt.

Old Style With stuffed Head, Modern
with Head of Felt.
The old style, familiar drumstick for
bass drums Is made with the head of sheep
skin or channels, stuffed with yarn. Years
ago the head of this sort of bass drumstick
was made egg shaped; it is now common
" made pear shaped and secured to the
stick, which is inserted into the head by
winding around the neck of the head, with
waxed cord That part of the handle that
Ia thus wound around is turned with u
slight flare in its shape, so that the head
cannot possibly slip off. This sort Of
drumstick is usually made with hickory
handle, though sometimes with handle
of rosewood.
The modern drnmstick for bass drums
Ia made of felt Three pieces of very
thick felt of n size sufficient to form the
drunstick head are pressed together into
compact bodYsthat is firm and solid
and yet has soAs degree of elasticity.
This block of fdle1s bored transversely OF
Its layers to receive the handle, and the
head is turned down to shape in II lathe,
the felt tlrumstick being made with an
apple shaped head At the base of tho
head and also at the top there is metal
cap, the cap at the top being held with
screw running through 1t into tho end OF
the stick, the head being thus held be-
tween two metal caps. The handle is of
rosewood.
The felt drumstick has been in use
about four years 1t costs about three
times as much as the old fashioned drum
stick, but 1t is much more durable and
more satisfactory in operation. The yarn
stuffed head with long continued use flats
down more or less when struck, and the
stitching Of the seams Is liable in the
course Of time to draw out. The felt head
preserves its shape and gives greater Ger
tninty of execution.
There is also made for bass drums a
stick called u double header, having Il
head at each end 1t is in appearance
something like a dumbbell except that
the handle is longer than the handle of n
aumbbell would be, and tho heads are
made with one n little larger than the
other This is Il felt headed stick. 1t is
used in ruttling the drum, as is done also
with tho old fashioned stick, in that case
the head and the end of the stick being
brought alternately into play. The double
header is used not in marching, but in
orchestral playing only.
Bass drlmsticks are sometimes made
to order, with head or handle of some spe.
DIAL dimensions to suit the players New

Elsewhere in this issue appears a news
item showing some Of the excursions
that will be made to the Hills country
during the coming summer. 1t is safe
to say hat a large per cent. Of the peO-
Pile coming on such an excursion can be
induced to visit Custer, Sylvan Lake,
and other attractions. To the CHRoN
IcLE it would seem that the time is ripe
for our business men to get together in
some sort of an organization having for
its purpose the getting of these people
to visit Custer, and the setting before
them the opportunities for profitable
investment that this vicinity offers.
Other co m munities have such ~organiza-
tons that bring much benefit to the
localities in which they are situated. and
the CHRONICLE firmly believes such
would be the case here. Let some OF
our entsrprising and pushing citizens
take this matter up.
