Traveling with a special tnaln, mem bers of the Overland Automobile fac tory band of Toledo, Ohio spent sever al minutes In La Grande last night on their way to Salt Lake City, whew the band Of 50 pieces makes an appear ance today. The organization has been to Portland where papers praise the musical ability of the band highly and after going to Salt Lake the band I will swing out to Minneapolis an ! then to Chicago having visited most of 'the large cities of the United States. I The Jounrney is called a transcon tinental vacation and It apparently Is In every sense. The band Is made up of employes In the Overland automo- i bile company's shops and Include ma ' chlnests, painters, accountants and ' wha( not an1 nationalities run from Greek to Swede. A hippy bunch they ; were too. Herr Koehler Is the direc tor and hewas profuse In his appreci ation of President J. X. Willys of the ! Overland company which made the ' trip possible. E. A. Wyre, president of ; the hand also sang lond songs of praise for the general manager. De tailing the principle that underlie so stupendous a trip, Mr. A. L. Lempke the secretary said last night: tTp to three years ago. when we fel lows were working ,'ln the old Pope ! factories, about the only thing we had to look forward to was pay-day, which came every two weeks. There wasn't ' much doing In the way of recreation or amusement. Then about that time we htard that Mr. Willys had bought the factory, and almost are first thing he did when he took cnarge was to in vite the formene and eub-foremen of all the departments to dinner with him at the Farm, Toledo's big summer re sort. This was the first time any of us fellows had got a chance to shake hands with the hos3. We wondered ( what was up, and we didn't iiiid out u!l after we had had our feast and the boss made a little talk. He sort of mapped out what he hoped to do and told as he would have to have the help of the me nln the production end. This little picnic and talk set the fel lows to thinking and seemea to put a different angle on things. There as something to think About now besides work Just plain work. ' " " Some of the fellows who were mu sically Inclined' thought they would like to get together and form a shop band. When t.ey broached the sub ject to General .Superintendent Shep Jer, he said, "Go ahead."' . It wasn't very long before we got to be pretty good and then, one night the boss came down to one of our parties pnej we mad? a UU with him. one hiliht he ieut his Secretary over to re hearsal, and he told us the boss was going to fit us out with hew Instru our Instruments with us.
