HERE’S TO THE BAND
During the past two years, under the capable di
rection of H. 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!
