HE EVENING WORLD will have as its guests this afternoon at Blaney’s Lincoln Square Theatre the deaf and dumb children from the institutions and homes of this city. There will be a special matinee for them to see “The Bad Boy and His Teddy Bears.” One of the several remarkable features of this entertainment will be the band from the New York Institution for the Instruction of the Deaf and Dumb. The band and the fife and drum corps are both com- posed of deaf and dumb boys. It is remarkable that boys who cannot hear can so develop the sense of time and touch as to produce excellent, harmonious music. Except perhaps for its greater exactitude, the rendering of this band cannot be told from the music produced by any other boys’ band.
