G. Humphreys, a much needed feature in the community’s activities has been filled by a high school band. Already this community has re ceived valuable advertising and satisfaction from the showing the band made at the La Grande music meet where it made a creditable showing. The value of the band at future fairs and celebrations can not be overestimated. Not only does the band bring widespread bene fits to the community but it offers singular oppor tunity to the youth of the entire community for spec ialized, cultural education. It relieves the problem of filling the leisure time of the students, and the en deavor’s contribution to the community reflects a more wholesome atmosphere, furnishing a medium for deeper enjoyment of life in homes and in the community generally. Music strikes a responsive chord in every human heart. At every appearance of the band at the high school basketball games, it has brought a wave of enthusiasm and excitement, which is so essential at all athletic activities. At every appearance of the band on Main street, it brings the business man out to listen and watch the appearance of another com munity builder, and then returns to his work with a greater measure of happiness. To bring the accomplishments so far has cost a lot of hard work on the part of the director and band members, and again it has cost parents of band members money for instruments and lessons, but the value of this endeavor is returned many times in the happiness and enjoyment of life in the community. On with the band! »poke a t the reg u lar h ealth associa tion meeting Maroh 13th, and held an in stitu te on home hygiene and By Mr«. W. C. Isom care of the «ick Tuesday, M arch 14, Mr. and Mr«.
