Frankly, I do not believe any one knows exact ly what will be offered at the moment, since there are too many other problems to work out in the meantime.

Frankly I like nothing better than to see youngsters become interested in band. Saw just that in the 1930’s at Bonner Ferry, Idaho, where a high school of about 150 had a 56-piecQ band. Nattily dressed in their uniforms this band furnished plenty of in terest for the community. In addition to the fun which the youngsters derive from band, there is the benefit which will remain iv i t h them throughout life. Perhaps they may never be in another band that has hap pened, and again, any of these youngsters ntay pursue band as a hobby throughout life, making the world more joyful because of their love for music. It will cost, certainly, but think of the pleasures, too! In The Mail-box Editor, Pilot: Marilyn, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Strue- bing.
