-YORK
BOYS^ VOCATIONAL SCHOOL BAND, LANSING, MICHIGAN . KING STACY,
DIRECTOR • NATIONAL CLASS B CHAMPIONS, 1929 • SECOND PLACE
WINNERS, 1928, 1930 and 1931 • FOUR TIMES MICHIGAN CLASS B CHAMPIONS
OR four successive years, the
Band of the Boys' Vocational
School of Lansing has been
either winner or runner'up
in Class B at the national
school band contests.
Such a record deserves a
lot of credit. We would like
to claim a share for the House
of York, but it belongs — all
KING STACY
of it — to the band itself and
to the sound instruction and musicianly leadership
of King Stacy.
The entire brass section of this fine band, with
two or three exceptions, is equipped with standard
York Instruments, which have been purchased in
the regular way through the regular channels.
Wherever you see a York in use, you may be
sure that it is the unqualified choice of the user,
purchased in the regular way. For the House of
York gives neither instruments nor money in ex'
change for testimonials or the use of "big names".
No artists are subsidized, no high'pressure organ-
izers employed, no politics played.
The past steady growth and present sound
condition of the York Band Instrument Company
is due first, to clean, ethical trade practices; second,
to the production of a line of balanced excellence —
instruments built "in the footsteps of the masters".
If you want the last word in a modern instru'
ment — if you feel that personal comparison and
use is the way to choose an instrument — then we
will be glad to place a York in your'hands for six
days' free examination and trial. The coupon
below is for your convenience. Fill it in and mail
it — today.
I have the very highest praise for
York Instruments, with which my band la
mostly equipped. They are a noteworthy
contribution to the advancement of music.
Intonation and blowing; dualities being
especially commended.
