Buescher Co. Asks Where Are the

"True-Tone," Publication of Band Instrument Manufacturer, Shows the Advantages
for Future of Covering the Present Child Market
g L K H A R T , IND., July 19—"Where are the
musicians of to-morrow—who will take the
places of the band and orchestra leaders of to-
day?"
This question is asked in a stimulating lead-
ing editorial in a recent issue of "True-Tone,"
the Buescher Band Instrument Co.'s monthly
musical journal. The question raised is an-
swered as follows:
"Somewhere among the kindergarten tots of
to-day are the master musicians of the genera-
tion just ahead. Some, with the rapid stride of
genius, will mount rapidly to the top. Others,
with more ambition than talent, will trudge
their way up through hours and months and
years of wearisome practice into the limelight
of success.
"Who are they? Where arc they? Who car.
say? It may be your son. It may be your
neighbor's son. But one thing we do know,
that somewhere now in the making, or yet un-
discovered, are the infant musicians of to-mor-
row, who in their time will take the places
of the great artists, the master musicians of
to-day's world-famous orchestras.
"Every child has an inherent inclination to-
ward music and a desire to express his own
emotions through the voice of his favorite in-
strument. Children respond quickly to the in-
spiration of good music. They learn quickly
to play. And every child should, at an early
age, be given the opportunity to study some
musical instrument. It may prove the signal
opportunity of his life.

"The boy who can play a Buescher saxo-
phone is the boy who is prominent and popu-
lar in the community, and the best part of it
all is the reward that music will give to him.
It provides him with more real pleasure, en-
joyment and substantial benefit than anything
else he can undertake. And many boys have
found that it has supplied the ways and means
to earn their way through college, and a mighty
pleasant way it is.
"Remember, too, that the great directors and
performers of to-day—men whose names are
known around the world, and whose weekly
salaries run enormously high—are after all the
kindergarten tots of only a few years ago. Then

Atlanta Possesses a
Famous Violin Shop
Business Place of Mays Badgett a Gathering
Point for Local and Visiting Musicians
ATLANTA, GA., July 18.—One of the most inter-
esting musical instrument stores in the city
is the violin shop of Mays Badgett. It is
located two stories above Atlanta's busiest
corner and is a dingy little place. The pro-
prietor has a bench, which is a confused en-
semble of musical instruments in various stages
of repair. The clatter of the traffic pounds in
through the dusty windows.
But Badgett would not trade his shop for a
palace. Famous personages of the musical
world have made a beaten path to his door.
Once a year he has a big party, attended by
members of the Metropolitan Opera Company.
Proudly displayed by the violin maker is a
letter from Eugene Ysaye praising his instru-
ments. Among the other users are David
