IJfeDRT Corsets rront Laced The March King's stately name is known wherever music holds its own, wherever drums and cymbals throb, and orcnestras nold down their job. A Sousa march just mention that, and mark how people smile thereat; they know what Sousa's music is; it 's melody without the fizz; it's full of energy and pep, and makes old graybeards dance a step; they hear the sound of marching men, of chargers trotting down the glen, the shock of battle and the roar, and billows beating on the shore. And' Sousa, when he would compose that music which the whole world knows, fills up his pipe with good old "Tux"' (name t'other brands, and he says "Shucks!"). Tuxedo is the smoke of men who do big things withjyre or pen, who make the old world's wheels go round, whose names will down the ages sound. JOHN PHIUP SOUSA And Hit Band.
