nothing like . paper you know.
But, without joking, the band
will be a good thing for the town,
helping to keep interest at home
and keeping the minds of the
young men busy. From now on
you can expect to hear volumes
of false tones being blown from
the horns by the ambitious young
men scattered all around the vi
.cinity. LII you don't like the
noise in your home Just put i lit
tie cotton In your ears. Whatev-
er you do, don't stop the boys
from rehearsing. We cant get
too much Of that, any Of rs.

even during concert season, when
he IS booked to play nearly every
night. Mr.. Ysaye is about sixty
years old, but still Is not too old
to learn. Postmaster Petersen is
also going to learn to play horn,
90 II you get any false notes in
your mail, don't blame the United

The band boys have made ar
rangements to have rehearsals at
the town hall twice q week Mon

band was organized.
HI. Petersen has been chosen
as director Of the band. Temper

of money paid by each member a
set of officers viii be elected to
serve year.
The band boys have undertaken
to finance the thing themselves,
asking no financial aid Of anyone.
This is a far better way than 10
ask the merchants to help, for if
they helped and it turned out To
be a failure they would derive no
benefit whatever, and If it turns
out to be a success, which it sure

He can have a match there with Kid
Herman. Arthur Simons or Johnny
Fisse. Johnny Coulon is going to New
Orleans for two bouts in April and Pro
moter Tortorich is anxious to get the
two best boys in the South to meet the
champion
Tortorich plans an elimination contest,
and wants Grant to enter. 1t is likely,
Grant here and get Coulon to stop off
in Atlanta and meet Jimmy.
Grant ought to make a great showing
against Coulon, especially If the latter
has not regained his old-time form.
