The Port Orford band, which all of us saw. Lily Parade day, is another good example. It is no use trying to say: We can't for it costs too much.” Band instruments, it is true, are expensive. Many of the larger instruments arc out of the price range of many families, but even th.it should deter the formation if people wish a band organized here.. The Canadian band was a community project—ours could be, too. added to the movement by the appearance of the Canadians on Monday, seemed to decide the issue.
