NEW HONOR ACCORDED DAVID
Might with Entire Propriety Be Called
the First Bandmaster Recorded
in History.

David might well be called the first
bandmaster mentioned in history, fer
he was the first orchestral organizer
of which we have any record. His
band numbered two hundred, four
score and eight, and he thus led the
first body of players. He no doubt
possessed a knowledge of instrument
tation and tOne-cOlor effect, for he
assigns his subjects to special instru-
mentS.
The fourth Psalm, "Hear me when
l call, o God of my Righteousness"
he directs to be played by his chief
musician, who was a player Of the
harp and the sackbut. Psalm fifth,
"Give ear to my words, o Lord" he
assigns to the chief musician, who
was the solo f1utist of his band.
Psalm sixth, 80 Lord, rebuke me not
in thine anger" the chief musician
or soloist on the string instrument,
who had a yirtuoso's regard for ex-
preston, is called upon to perform.
and so on through the Psalms.
David without question had In his
band all of the component parts Of
the modern orchestra-stripgs wood
winds, brass and percussion. At the
dedication of Solomon's temple, David
and all the house of David played
before the Lord with all manner of
instruments made of fir wood, and
with harps and with psaltries with
trimbels, castanets, comets and GYM
balls, and the sound Of the trumpet
was heard in the land even as 1t Is
heard today" Popular as composer
and popular as conductor, David was
certainly to be envied.
From these Biblical days to the
present time the instrumental body has
existed in many forms-bands COM
posed entirely of bagpipes, orchestras
composed entirely of string instru-
ments, bands Of oboe players, bands
entirely Of brass, bands of brass and
woodward, bands of trumpets, bands
of bugles, bands of drums, and all
sorts Of combinations have been made
by man.

Story of a Statue.

One of the most admired treasures
of art in Florence Is Michael Angeles
youthful David. The shepherd stands
with firm foothold, the stone grasped
tightly in his right hand, ready to be
sped on it's errand. But the remark
able beauty Of the statue Is not the
only thing that attracts attention. The
statue has story. A sculptor began
work on the same piece of marble, but
lacking skill he only hacked and CHS
eled the block. 1t was then cast
aside, as worthless thing. For years
1t lay IN backyard among the rub
bish. At last Michael Angelo saw it,
and at once perceived its possibilities.
Under his skillful hand the stone be-
came like living thing, full Of mar
selous beauty-Selected.
