See page 8. NO How Much Shall We Spend for Music in When will the bands begin to play in the parks? The park board has not decided. Nor has it decided how much money to spend this year for band music. Members of the park board, interviewed by The Star, agree that the matter should receive attention Two years ago the park board spent only $4,000 for band music. At the same time about half a million dollars was spent in the construction and maintenance of boulevards. One year ago The Star called attention to the need of more band music, and the result was that the park board appropriated $8,000 for that purpose. ee @ 4 How much shall the city of Seattle spend THIS summer for band music? Would $25,000 be too much? can the city buy so much happiness for of its people? Mix band music with fresh air, green grass, the scent of flowers, and what elixir, what tonic the doctors can prescribe, can be more conducive to the joy of living on this little old earth? Seattle wants and is proud of her boulevard system. It's good business. The speedways ad- vertise Seattle. And they are really necessary to a great park system. But, after all, the boulevards are used by a lim- ited number of people—by motorists mostly The Star believes that, even from an advertis- ing and business standpoint, Seattle can reap a greater advantage from a complete and thorough band concert program in the parks. Put a band in every park every Sunday, and a band in the principal parks once, at least, during the middle of the week. SPEND $25,000, AND THE RETURN ON THIS INVESTMENT WILL BE, FIRST OF ALL, A LOT OF HAPPIER MEN AND WOM- EN, HEALTHIER CHILDREN, STRONGER { BODIES, CLEANER MINDS. MAKE THE PARKS, IN FACT AND IN REALITY, THE PEOPLE'S PLAYGROUNDS. Then wouldn't it be fine to have it advertised throughout the length and breadth of this country that Seattle, the Seaport of Success, is also a city of playgrounds, and song, and music, where people hustle and work and are making a great commer- cial center during business hours, but can afford the time and have the opportunity to enjoy them- selves in a clean, healthy manner when the day's work is done?
