Shot taffeta hand bags to use with

gathered around little mirror, and
the sides are drawn up with successive

musical director. Hitherto this field
has been monopolized almost entirely
by white bandmasters. and they, have
not always been In thorough sympathy
with the men under them. The success
Of this band disproves the oft repeated
statement that colored men will not be
led by colored officers in the army and
that they are better led by white men.
Director Hammond's men seem to
have responded more readily to his
methods Of instruction than the white
officers commanding the post had ex-
pected, and the experiment of a, col

has been shown to be such a bowling
success that other worthy and COM

Colored bandmasters have fourished

They are, scattered all over Europe,
South America. Brazil, Spain. the West

black men, and the bands in Brazil,

some of them not only led by black
men, but Gre largely composed Of
