the players were present and Profess
or Seelack, who has demonstrated bis
ability to direct, put them through a
comprehensive course of sprouts. The
band as now constituted Is by far and
away the best in this part of the
state, and Is a credit to any city. No
place could have. a better advertise
ment than a live, up-to-date band, and
when strangers within our gates hear
the band on Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings, the business men who sub
scribed as they could to the fund for
uniforms and instruments will realize
that the bread cast upon the waters
has begun ,to return, and before
many days. -
