FRENCH BANDSMEN
ARE TO Be HEARD
IN REC|FALS HERE

Hard on the heels OF the Blue
Devils. famous French fighters, an
other organization OF Frenchmen has
been sent to the United States by
France to soiidify the cement OF the
bonds between the two nations- The
latest emissaries are not fighters.
They are to win their way into Amer
lean hearts through music.
Under the command OF Captain Ca
briel Pares, former conductor OF the
celebrated Garde Republicaine Band,
these military musicians are to appear
in Washington at the Belasco Theater
July 2. at 4:30 p. m.
II will be the start OF a tour OF the
country under the auspices of the
Y. NJ. CA. which will include practical
ly every one of the large cities and
the military cantonments. The tour
is made at the request OF Secretary
of War Baker.
While the visitors are now musi-
clans, they were once fighters Of
note. Almost every man bears wounds
received in battle and many of them
have been decorated for especial val
or.
Captain Pares is not a stranger to
the United States. In 1904 he brought
the "Garde Republicaine" to this coun-
try to play at the st. Louis EXpOsi-
tion. and again in 1915, to the San
Francisco Fair.
Captain Pares and his musicians
will visit Camp Meade next Thursday

army men. On the following day the
French band will go to Baltimore for
a days engagement.

A cutout is helpful, but 1t will
not give any noticeable increase In
power. It is good for listening to
the engine fire to detect uneven fir
ing or misfiring. Usually il is against
the law to drive with a cutout.
