IT 1S NO EASY thifig to give a citya first class musical organi- zation, yet such an organization is one which every city of any considerable size should have. It is not easy for the beginnings of a good band - in smaller cities must be made by a voluntary movement of the general public. Although a band is really a pub- lic institution and its benefits are those reaped by the vublic, there is no provision in law for the support of a band. Moreover while every city should havea band and while it is unquestion ably true that the cost of a good band is returned to a city many fold, a band is something which a municipality does not have to have and in the press of expendi- tures its maintenance is there- fore left to chance. Also a poor band is simply money thrown away. These are some of the reasons why it is hard to build up a good band organization. It is a fact, howeyer, that when any city secures a good band organi- it clings to it no matter what the expense may be. i Crookston has for several years maintained a band by popular subscription, the ex- pense to the business men of the zatiown, b city being about $1500 per year and the band has a reputation {throughout the - northwest. Grand Forks is now advocating municipal support tor its band the Herald urging the appropria tion of $1000 a year for this pur- pose. i Bemidji has made a good be- the establishment upon a safe business foundation of a city band. Bemidji’s organi- ginning for | zation has many dangers to run however, before itis firmly es. The band must be | comparative inefficiency, it must make substantial progress in musical ability, and it must have conservative, attentive These things are not easy, but the ac- tive sympathy and cooperation of the people of the city will make them more so, and in time Be-| midji will have a city band that will be second to no local organi- | zation in the northwest. i \Tobhmv illustrates better the | hand-to-mouth conditions which | prevail among the vast majority of the citizens of our country| than the nervousness manifested as to the outcome of the crops. Should Providence withhold its | blessing one year the mechanics {and laborers of the cities would despair. And the farmer must raise sufficient produce to keep a dozen families or more before be- fore the margin allotted him will suffice to keep his finances in solvent conditions. vitally mterested but if it ca,n[ be established along the lines outlined in these columns it will be one more thing to make Be- midjia most desirable summer Tesort.
