ville's Get t-Together Club will 60
down in history. The organization
session of this club was held in the
Armory Tuesday evening. The
largest representative body OF citi-
zens ever gotten together was out
to learn the doings of the club and
to enjoy the program prepared for
the occasion. More interest was
displayed and more enthusiasm
evidenced at the meeting Tuesday
night than at any similar meeting
ever held in Grangeville.
The hiliarity of the evening was
started by the Riggs Concert Band
playing two lively selections on the
street. From there they went to
the Armory where the majority Of
the members Of the club had al
ready assembled. After a short
social chat, the program began.
The grand selection, "Faust," was
played by the Riggs Concert Band,
followed by a Trombone solo ably
rendered by Walter +. Bunnell.
Then followed the selection, "Sweet
Thoughts" by the band. Later,
they rendered, "The Rosary" "
This much Of the program was
alone q most pleasing feature. The
band, SO say many who attended,
played better Tuesday night than
ever before. All the selections were
exceptionally we'll executed and
delivered. The selection Faust
was without doubt, the best rendi'
tion Of band music ever given ir
the city. Every member shoult
feel complimented upon his ant
her ability, as displayed Tuesda,
