The band was organized under adverse
circumstances for finances were at a low
ebb at that time and money needed for
other and possibly more important pur-
poses. A few secondhand instruments
were denoated some of them having the
appearance of having been used to fight
with. None of the first batch of boys
had had any previous musical training.
Their uniform at that time was varying
from overalls to homemade jeans, and
bare feet were much in evidence.
But the school officials persisted and
the boys learned rapidly. Despite their
motley garb and battered instruments
the boys performed with such credit that
new instruments was procured from time
to time through the kindness of individual
donors and other sources and with the
new instruments came a little later the
uniforms that they have SO proudly worn
for the past eight years. The fact that
the uniforms have been in use for eight
years speaks well for the care and man

his wife.

During the past few years the brass
bapd of the Alabama Boys Industrial
school has become one of the best known
musical organizations of the state, and
whenever and wherever they appear they
are given a great ovation, not merely
because they are such little chaps. but
for the excellence of their performances.
They have participated in many civic and
patriotic parades in various parts of the
state and have always created an inn
preston by their manly bearing and gem
eral department as we'll as by the way
they render the marches and other
musical numbers
The band did not attain it's present
efficiency without a great deal of care

Since its organization several years ago
the band has produced a number of splen-

it's membership soloists of unusal ability

The cloudy conditions have been

Moderate temperatures prevail

The boys band is not only q credit
