Sousa's Entire Band April 27. Matinee
Only

The question is often asked in small
er cities if John Philip Sousa really
brings with him his whole band. or
whether he cuts it in two halves after
leaving New York City and serves only
a half meal
Replying TO these questions let it be
known that Mr.. Sousa comes to this
city with the identical organization
and same soloists that are heard in
his concerts in New York, Boston,
Washington, Baltimore, Chicago, and
other large cities of the country. No
matter what cities he visits, be they
large or small, he serves them with the
same conScientiousness of true artist
His programs differ not from those Of
fered a metropolitan audience, nor is
ne backward in responding to encoreS
as generously as he does in New York
1t has been a rule of his artistic career
never to slight any audience, no matter
what its size. His programs, there
fore. are never cut, nor his enthusiasm
dampened He finds the same pleas
ures and delight i'm playing to any Civ
ing enjoyment to his patrons in the
smallest city that thrills him in the
great HiDpodrOme in New York City,
where week after week from 5000 to
5000 people have applauded him to
the echo. Mr.. Sousa has been able to
visit the different sections of his coun-
try for IA successive years, and today
is more welcome than ever, simply be-
cause his admirers know that it is the
