A BAND FOR MITCHELL
An Organization is a Very Essential
Thing and it Should be Accom-
plished this Winter.

Ask any man in Mitchell, business
man or otherwise, this question,
Should Mitchell have a band?"
The answer of 80 out of 100 would
be an emphatic yes. At the same
time we have none, and the worst of
it is the one or two recent attempts
to secure an organization has failed.
The principal reason is because there
is not a united effort in hat direc-
ton
We have talked with a number Of
business men on the band question,
and they will agree hat Mitchell
should be represented with an or
g%anization that is a good one-no
second rate affair would find n
support. Some few years ago Mitch
ell had an organization hat was a
fine one and it could hold it's own
with any of them. But that is not
today, and it is today that the city
is up against it for a band.
One or wv attempts have been
made in the direction of a band, but
it did not meet with success. One
of the main reasons was hat the
players in the city, not all by any
means, showed an Indifference to-
had been seen and urged to come,
the first meeting only brought out
three or four men, and they grad
ually grew in number until there
We're perhaps ten OF twelve. That
much of the organization lacked the
proper Instrumentation to make the
band at all effective. The director
who was investing his own money to
try and start the band became dis
couraged and finally left the city.
He was a capable director, a thor
ough band musician, and We are
confident that if he had received the
support of the business interests
and the musicians hat he would
have been able eventually to make
the band a go.
There are w things lacking in
Mitchell to make the band win,
They want W good, first-class cor
net solo players and at least four
good clarinet players. Without
them a band the kind that Mitchell,
wants will never be realized. II
will be absolutely necessary to ger
these men here and give them posi-
tions whre they can earn a livelihood
and then give their services to the
band. Many other towns do this
and there is no reason why Mitchell
cannot accomplish the same result.
through the same avenue. The bust
ness men can pave the way to fill
this necessity, and the rest will b,
easy. Of course, it will take som
financial support to maintain a di
rector for the band, and his will
have to be met, presumably, through
subscription or son other source.
At the present time there is

city treasury to help pay for the
organization, and they do so on the
ground that the entire town receives
h benefit and that all the people
in the town should be required to
contribute toward it. 1t may or may
not be possible for Mitchell to do
the same thing. Anyhow, let's pull
together for a good, first-class band.

EASTER PROGRAMS.
The National Baptist Concert Quar-
terIy Comes Out in the Form
of Easter Greetings.

The denomination has made such
rapid strides towards advancement in
this twentieth century civilization that
it is impossible to expect them to &C
cept anything for themselves or for
their children in the way of literary
work that is not the best-the best
composed, the best constructed, con-
tanning the newest selections of poems
and music, coming out in the neatest
FORM This was never more apparent
than it is just now
The National Baptist Publishing
Board being aware of this fact, has
never attempted to give to the denomi
nation anything but the best along
this line. They have employed the
best writer's on theological work, as
we'll as the best music composers and
the best editors. A glance at theiJ
periodicals, at their newspapers, anC
at the National Baptist Concert Quar-
terly, will convince any one that these
assertions are true.

State Forest Reserve.

NJ. ]. Hapgood of Peru, who failed
in his ambition to represent his town
in the legislature It's fall, has again
brought to the public notice his plan
for state forest reserve through a
letter to Governor G. H. Prouty in
which he says:
Il dare say that you will refer to
forestry matters in your messages, at
least hope so, for no time should be
lost or effort spread In the protection
of our forests and in encouraging
owners te put them in the way of per
manent preservation. In case the
state win offer sufficient guarantees
believe that many owners of extern
sive tracts will put them under the
absolute and perpetual guardianship
OF the state, the revenues accruing
either to themselves or their heirs or
to be devoted TO some public purpose.
"In my own case | desire to give alb
solute deed either to the state or ma
ton of the Bromley mountain tract
comprising about 1000 acres, most of
1t large growth timber, having been
cut over many years ago. and now
being in most desirable condition for
watershed and game covert purposes.
| should wish to condition that none
OF Gods wild animals shall ever be
killed on this tract, that there be no
open season here, to the end that
there may be at least one place OF
sure refuge for these good friends of
ours. / desire also that any revenue
shall be used for the benefit of the
town of Peru, under the direction of
the governor or the president or his
representative Will the state act or
must | apply to the nation?'
There is breadth and generosity in
this proposal of the Inca of Peru that
will appeal to every citizen who has
sufficient intelligence to realize the
disastrous effect of the rapid disap-
pearance of timber from the noun
tains of the state, but 1t would meet
with more serious consideration If
the strings were removed. To &C
cept and care for a forest reserve
would entail number of obligations
upon the state of nature entirely
new and in the enactment Of the nee
essary legislation sufficient number
Of difficulties would be encountered
without the necessity OF complying
with the complicated conditions i'm
posed by the donor.
