You may have thought, at one
time or another, that leading a
band would be an ideal way of life.
The hours are good and the work
is easy. You could sleep as late as
you wanted and play golf all after
noon. You would be admired, no
doubt, by hundreds of dreamy
young pretties. You would meet
interesting people, just like news
papermen do. You would meet
people at their most expansive mo-
ments, when they would ply you
with sparkling wines and introduce
you to beautiful women.
You can dream on, If you want
to lead a band. Any one already
doing it will tell you it's nice work
if you can get it, all right, but a
man with an orchestra earns his
money. In the first place, If you
have a family you meet it only in
passing, since it keeps normal
hours. You may be admired by
dreamy dolls, but while they're adj
miring you're working, and when
you're through working they're long
gone with some one else. Those in
