ARMY BANDS TO
 BE BESTANDARD|zED
Popular Music Is to Be Sup plemented by the Classii-
 cal Masterpieces.

w NASf1l4N1 lO4N, Jdu. lJ.-ArHly muslc soon will compare with that of the best orchcstras and bands of 1he country. Popular music will be supplemented by the classical mas terpieces and a supcrband and or chestra will be created from army musicians.
 General Pershing already has or, lered the establishment here of the Army Music School and Walter Dam rosch, conductor of the New York Symphony Orchestra, has pledged him assistance in work of organiza- ton. Both are determined through the school to elevate music in the ,rmy.
 The object of the school as out lined in tho orders issued by General Pershing, lis to give courses of in struction in music, both practical and theoretical. elementary and ad- vanced, to student4band6men to ad- vanced instrumentalists (soloists) /, and to supply trained personnel herein to meet, as fully as possible,
 
 The first move to better army music was made by General Persh- ing soon after he took over the office of Chief of Staff One of his first actions was to transfer the school from Fort Jay. New York, to Wash ington and direct that it be reorgan- 'zed as a super band" comparable )nly to the splendid band which was organized in France"
 Washington, of coursc," he said. would be the only place suitable for it's organization"
 These statements were contained in an exchange of correspondence be- tween the General and Mir. Damrosch. The latter first was opposed to the removal of the school from New York believing students would have better advantages to hear good music and study it in New York than in Washington. He later reconsidered and offered his assistance in making the school all that the General pro- posed It was MT Damrosch who organized the famous "Pershing's
  Own" at TChaumont, headquarters of the American Expoditionary Forces, which won great distinction among the military bands of the Allied ar mics and later was sent to tour the United States during one of the Liberty Loan campaigns.
 The movement to improve music in the army has as it's objective the ultimate graduation from the school of enough men to give each regiment ! highly trained musical organization able to compete with the best bands and orchestras in concerts for the public's entertainmenf as we'll as that Of the army Thus. General Pershing hopes to find another tie between the army and the people of the coua- try to give each a better and more intimate understanding of the other and to blot out any impression that the military and the citizenry must move in different circles.
 First evidences of the success of the school were exhibited recently whom the students were used to vel come the various armament confer ence delegations. Tho school band was called upon to furnish music for the receptions at the Union Station and attracted attention in every in- stance by the perfection with which it played.

 LONG KEEP IT SECRET

Compton Percy Tnorp, organist and musical composer of Los Angeles, was secretly married yesterday to Mrs. Louise Elizabeth Garden Mac Leod, artist of the southland, by Jus tice of the Peace A. T. Barnett.
