evening at o'cock and continue
them every Friday evening through
out the summer months OF June.
July August and September; pro-
viding. Of course, that they can get
the usual small donations from the
business houses, etc. The band
thinks the evening concerts will be
OF more benefit to the public in
general, than the Sunday afternoon
ones, as 1t generally gets too hot
for people to come out in the after
Moons.
The boys were going to give their
first concert on Friday. May 25th.
but on account OF the High School
Commencement Exercises they have
put II off until the first OF June.
They will, however. appear on Dec
grafton Day free of charge, as q do
nation to the old soldiers.
The band has been rehearsing all
winter and doing their best to have
q good band, and while they will
not have as many pieces as they have
had heretofore. they will have Just
as good . band, and now. while the
the community needs a band more
than ever. to help promote the pa
triotic spirit Of the day. they should
be given all the support possible
by everybody. Grattan Floods
History Of Irish." says. Music Is
a universal language. appealing to
the very soul of man. and Is the
outpouring OF the heart. whether
to express Joy or sorrow. to rouse
to battle or soothe to sleep. to give
expression Of tubilation for the liv-
ing or Of wailing for the dead. to
manifest sympathy with society or
devotion TO Oiety."
Almost ali the towns where there
is band. or where there has been
a band, are devoting considerable
attention TO their band this season.
and business mems clubs are taking
an active interest In lending their
support to the success OF the band.
Several Colorado towns are adver-
tising for musicians with or with
out trades and giving them some
kind OF employment In order TO have
their services In the band. Any town
that can take steps to bring sood
music before It's citizens has added
a great asset to its town. and there
Is not a single thing In La Junta
that Is as good an asset. for the
amount expended by the public. as
your band. Band concerts In the
summer are not only a popular d.
version. but . refining Influence.
II there is anything that you can
do to help the band. either by q do
nation or giving employment to
some one who Is q musician, cali
