GREENEVILLE. Finely Rendefsd Concert and Enjoyable Dance Under Auspices of Military Band—Lincoln Day Observed in Lo- cal Schools—Nptes. The Greeneville Military band held their first social since their organiza- tion In Union hall Friday evening and the audience of about two hundred people were well pleased with the ex- lent programme rendered by the t Edge orchestra of twelve pleces. This orchestra, which has been under the direction of Thomas Heaps, is largely composed of members of ‘the Midtary band and its fine playing camhe in for large compliments and much applause during the evening. The programme was as follows: March, Semper Fidelis, Sousa; Golden Crown Overture, Hermann; waltz, Won't You Come Over to Phill Willy? medley, The Frolic of the Imps; finale, Zip D. ! ‘The concert lasted from 8 to 9 and after this dancing followed from § to 1. meinbers of the orchestra were sorved a light lunch. Among the largc attendance were guests from New Lonl don, Willimantic and Westerly. The committee in charge of the dance, and who brought it to @ successful con- cluslon, were Thomad Heaps, John McKenzie and Edward Kendall. Under their direction the hall was attractive- Iy decorated, prominent in the fore- ground being a picture of Abrahum Tincoln. The ©reeneville Military band was organized several months ago and in the short time it has existed the mem- bers have attained a marked degree of proficiency. This is due in no small measure to the careful. training of Thomas Heaps, who has been their consclentious leader, and who is recos- nized as a musician of talent. There are a few members who have not yet socured instruments, Among the ac- tice members of the band are Thomes Heaps (leader), piccolo; James Roo- ney, Willam Andrews, George Ladd, trombones: Harold Carpenter, Richard Murphy, Walter Chase, cornets Norman, Ovila Norman, Jr., John Mc- Kenna. Dennis Bowen. Edward Ken- @all, Willlam Super and Edward Kane, clarinets: Fred Halev and - Michael Kane, alto horns; Phillp McMahon, bass horn. When the financial re- sources increase and the players be- come more practiced Greeneville will ‘be assnred of a ereditable musical or- ganization.
