!. 5. MARINE BAND TO
 BE AT F01's SUNDAY
Proceeds o Dox
 b Go to Legion
 Funeral Fund.

The D. s. Marine Band, composed or marines on f1rlough, will be at
 Fox's theater this Sunday for an after noon and eevning concert. The pro- ceeds of the affair will go to the Eddy Glover Post, American Legion Funeral
 Fund, and BIS it will cost $1,5OO to
 bring the band to this city, Chairman Maurice Pease hopes that as many people as possible attend. The band is proclaimed the best band 4 in the world, and it is positively stated that 1t is the highest paid military band in the world. The business representa- tive who was in this city few days ago said that Fox's theater vas an ideal place for the concert and pointed to the fact that the band plays to great advantage in the pink room'' of the White House at Washington D. c. It was stated that the pink room is much smaller than Fox,s theater.
 The band is composed of 50 pieces. Concert music is played and every en- core will be popular music. This ar engagement, according to the publicity received. is the most satisfactory from the standpoint of American music lovers.
 The U. s. Marine band is going back to Washington, D. C., November. i, and will be one of the mainstays of concert and parade work when the diplomats of the world are there to at tend the disarmament conference. This. in itself. is a high honor to be paid to any band and it will, no doubt, play at diplomatic functions for for elgn potentates. The Presidents Own as the band is called may not come again to New England for a long time, as 1t possibly will go to the Paclflc Coast after it completes its duties at the peace conference.
 One of the greatest cornet soloists. and proclaimed by many as the best in existance. will be with the band. MT. Whitcomb's salary is s15O a week. All the men are in red uniforms which adds to the picturesqueness of the band which has the prestige combined with ability to adapt itself with con- cert as well as martial music.
