PLAY IN EUROPEAN BANDS.
COIOred Musicians from Anne RIGA Find
Welcome in Foreign
Countries.

Many years ago there were colored
musicians in our military bands, and
England was not singular in that re-
spect, says the London Telegraph. Both
in France and in Germany the cymbal
and the kettledrum players were near
neighbors to the sun" In the latter
country their performances were not
confined to the instruments just named
and Frederick William l. of Prussia
had, in fact, a whole orchestra of them.
They were mainly recruited from the
African colony Grosz- Friederichsbu rg,
founded by his grandfather, and even
when that Prussian possession was sold
to the Dutch in 1920 the dark-hued vir-
tuosi still continued to be imported.
They were quartered in a special bar
racks in the Friederichstadt, and the
fact is perpetuated in the name of Moor
street in Berlin, and which was the site
of their habitation. Gradually they dis
appeared from all the European bands,
but it has been decided to revive this
old fashion practice, and two colored
performers are forthwith to join the
musicians of one of the regiments of the
Prussian guards. Queen Victoria has
many more subjects of dusky hue than
any other sovereign, and some of them
would look very picturesque on horse
back at the head of our regiments"

Too Much Pork; Not Enough Fat.

Without doubt the fat in pork is about
as hard to digest as anything can be. A
person has to have a strong digestion and
must be engaged in hard work IN order to
take care of this food. although it is
upon it through the cold weather. The
fact is, however, that as rule fat is
largely deficient in our food; that is, a
fat which can be easily digested and
promptly assimilated by the system. Cod
liver oil, as we find it in SCOTS Emul-
sion, is the most easily dlgested of all
fats; it is lust the food the body must
have to give it nerve power, brain power
and digestive power. -

tContihNed from 81 nnae J


GuDllc INSTRUCTION,
Sir: Your communication OF O t..
llth in re the regular exsminati, II
Of children at the beginning OF the
school year, ia at hand. The truth
Of your remarks concerning decency
and propriety in conducting the
OK amination is so manifest as to
require no discussion. The thorough
examination OF ths children who
attend the public schools in this
co Intry is matter OF public ne-
cessity, a necessary evil.
ThA fact that certificate OF such
examination ia required is well
known to all psreut4 who have
children OF the school age, together
with the fact that they have the
opti3u Of having thu examination
conducted in private by their own
family physician.
There may be few cases where
viz ire IOf SUCH eAduiuhblO', Nu'Cu
| bs'ieve is universally one dollar,
is the only reason why the certh-
cate is not secured before the open
ing OF the school year, but this can
not bs true 10 the great mi brity OF
cases, especially as. most physicians
would readily forego the iea in
cases where the families could not
AFFORD to pay it, so that the c2uclu-
sion must be drawn that the OBJ
oeti1us ofplrauls to having Their
children examined at tbs school is
not so great IS to bs prohibitory.
You of course appreciate that an
examination, the ~p1iucipal, object
OF which is to detect Nlekrosy in the
earlier stages, is not satisfactory
unless he entire body is exam ned.
In order to make the examination
thorough enough to be any value and
at the same time rapid enough to
be finished in anything approaching
a reasonable time, some plan must
be adopted to avoid unnecessary
delay and waste Of time. This can
only be done with the good will att
assistance Of the teachers, and GER
tainly csnnotbe accomplished when
they not only refuse assistance but
actually ob'truct TIE physician in
the performance OF his necessary
aud not, particularly agreeable
duty.
| Now as to the impro2r'ety in the
examinations, | do not believe that
there ID any improperly, and there
certain y should bs no ind-caucy in
a lot o.. boys OF the school ags,
"six 70 Eileen years." stripping to
tho waist in each others company,
nor do believe thst tbs boys so
consider it. venture to say that
those same boys strip TO etiIl
j greater degrAe ia each othAi'S pre-
sencs when they 60 swimming
alter school. Dr.. Howard tells me
/ that he always tnk IS he boys srpar
ately behind q screen or mo other
object when requiring them to
| further disrobe.
| do not belieVa it is necessary in
order that the examination be con
Quoted with decency aud propriety,
that every boy bs taken in a room
by himself bafore removing any
article OF clio hing, nor d. | con
slider it necessary to have the waDle
room strip to the waist before the
examination begins. | believe that
intelligent cooperation between tbs
teacher and physician should in all
cases result in the examination b..
ing conducted expeditiously aud
with all due regard for proprety
