Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Chas.
+. Spears and Jack Wolenschlager,
local musicians. departed today for
Madison, where they will take up a
residence for the present at least.
Both gentlemen have been connected
with the local band and other musical
organizations in the city. Mr.. Spears
has recently accepted a proposition to
direct the Madison band and Mr..
Wolenschlager will become a member
of that organization. Mrs. Spears
will remain in the city for a few days
before joining her husband at their
new home.
Prof. Charles f. Spears and Jack
Wolenschlager, recently of Sioux
Falls, who have located ii Madison
for the purpose of organizing a band,
held a meeting last evening and ef-
fected temporary organization with a
membership of seventeen. 1t is hoped
to. enroll thirty members, so that at
. least twenty will be available on oc-
casion. Prof. Spears comes highly
recommended as a leader and it is
more than likely that he will be sue
cessful in organizing and receiving
first class support for a band in Mad
!, ison.

the rapidly passing automobiles
cause clouds of dust to rise. Every
Z year the matter of street sprinklinf
: becomes a topic of discussion amonf
: business men, which leads into plan
ming ways and means of shifting tn,
expense of the work. Heretofor,
!, business men have paid the expense

ting up the argument that the cit!

4 them appear determined to stand pa
OF the proposition.
