Discoveries Made by a Sousa Agent on
Tour

John Philip Sousa made a record tour
OF Europe last season. when he pre-
scented his American band IN all the
great centers, including London, Paris,
Dublin, Brussels. Berlin, St Peters
burg. Vienna, Prague, Copenhagen, and
Amsterdam. The American musicians
had 10 give their concerts under all
kinds OF conditions. and the manage
ment found itself confronted with com
plications such as they had never
known before.
On one occasion it was determined to
give a Sunday concert at Aliddlesboro,
England. but the law or Great Britain
does not permit a charge for admission
TO a Sunday entertainment. A seat
can be sold, however, which is the
usual way Of evading the law. The
town hall was rented and the council
gave permission for the Sunday con-
sert, but refused to allow reserved seats
TO be sold in advance
To get around this difficulty the hall
was divided into three sections, accord
ing to the scale or prices, and pro-
grams were printed to correspond in
number TO the seats. These programs
were sold in advance Of the concert.
and each entitled the holder to a speci-
ned seat-a. blue program for a four
shlhng seat, yellow for two shillinEs,

was avoided, and an advance sale OBJ
