In Need Of Financial Support.- - It Organization Takes Money To Maintain Band, Say Members. There is great probability that the Nephi Band will be a thing' of the past in the near future unless some effort Is made on the part of the clt- zens here to give the band some sup-- ' port financially. , According to some of the band members there seems to be no special desire on the part of the people of this city to support the organization, and they state that It Is an absolute Impossibility to main tain a band that amounts to anything without some financial help. To let the organization disband at this time they say would be a distinct loss to the city after the time and money that has been spent the past year and a half in bringing the organ. izatlon up to its present standard, but unless some financial support Is forthcoming soon this thfng will happen. The Times-New- s endorses the sen timents expressed above. A town the siz of Nephi without a band would be a joke. There is nothing that puts life into any celebration like a good band, and the work of the or ganization at the ball games last summer is still fresh in our memory, t although they practically received nothing for this service. If the band continues, we understand they wish to secure uniforms, and this paper proposes that a public subscription fund should be started to help them secure same. When the band gives a concert each Sunday evening as they did last summer every citizen gets the benefit of the entertainment, it therefore no more than right that they should help to contribute to the support of the band. The expense of purchasing music. the time spent In practice and concerts, and in" the purcliase of Instruments, is too much to ask of them that it be given free gratis. If this city is to continue to have a band the members must receive some financial support in order to maintain the organization in an efficient manner. is HAPPENINGS NOTES OF INTEREST FROM THE GRADE SCHOOLS Mrs. V.
