Not long ago the band at Sedalia gave a con-
cert after 12 weeks of instructions. The concert
was attended by 500 people, a wonderful at-
tendance for the very small town with only 29
pupils in its grade school. This band, made up
of beginners at the start of the 12 weeks of
instructions, played four complete numbers
during the concert. There were also a trom-
bone duet, a sax solo, a trumpet duet, and
several other numbers by different members of
the band.
The Knight-Campbell Music Co. appoints the
instructors, being in close touch with teachers
of musical instruments in all sections of their
territory. The music course is presented in full
accord with the school boards, and lessons are
given during school hours and make up a part
of the children's education.
The Knight-Campbell Music Co. also organ-
ized two bands in Pueblo, Colo. There is a
large boys' band at the Colorado Fuel & Iron
Co.'s plant, and a sax band at the Colorado
Power Co. Most of the bands, however, are
made up of pupils of different grade schools in
the State.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., May 4.—E. J. Delano has
ments such as the cornet, etc., it is well to pro-
vide local direct lighting. This may be done by
displaying in showcases and for the larger in-
struments in wall cases. The equipment gen-
erally used for this kind of lighting is similar to
the equipment used in the show window, only
smaller.
Lighting equipment is like anything else, it
must be kept clean. You would not think of
allowing dirt to accumulate on your furniture.
Do you allow your lighting equipment to serve
you month in and month out without some
definite program of maintenance? If you do,
you are paying for electrical energy from which
you do not receive full value. You are cutting
down the efficiency of your employes. You are
making it harder for your customer to inspect
your merchandise and thereby lessening your
chances for making the sale.
Plenty of light properly used and maintained
will pay you dividends that are well worth your
study and attention.
