Home From France Where
They Payed in U. S. Band

The Amboys of Middlesex county
figured rather prominently when
General Pershing's pet band was
picked in France. The band has two
Middlesex representatives, Clarence
Herbert, of 404 High street, this city,
and Bugler James Marcella, of 233
Catherine street, South Amboy. who
returned with it Saturday on the Won
Steuben.
These boys, who are the flower of
Americas army MUSICIANS, will play
In New York today to help get the
Fifth Liberty Loan under way. They
will also parade in the metropolis.
Herbert Is a drummer in the band.
He was originally in the 311th infan-
try, which trained at Dix and went
over January 20 a year ago.
Marcella began his army career
with the 304th field artillery, which
trained at Camp Upton. He went over
a year ago and fought on the Argonne
front and along the Vesle, escaping
unhurt. He witnessed much of the
hottest fighting in Argonne Wood.
1t happened that General Pershing.
after hearing various military bands
in France, came to the conclusion
that Americas army music was below
the standards of France and England.
He then set about to pick his own
band from what he judged the flower
musicians of the army. They were
organized o o. after the armistice
was signed and played before the king
and queen of Belgium, the Prince of
Wales. General Sid Douglas Haig, and
President Wilson when he reviewed
American army forces in France.
