Help in Organizing a Band Offered to Rotarians, Ki-
wanians, Lions and Others by Manufacturers.
The Band Service Department of C. G. Conn, Ltd.,

spread in the Saturday Evening Post of Mar. 22.
"We'll gladly help you organize a hand. Individu-
als, schools, organizations are invited to write our

Attention, Rotarians. Kiwanians, Lions and others!

tell you how to proceed," is the advice printed.
The striking display is illustrated with a color re-
production of a painting by Oskar Gross painted for
C. G. Conn, Ltd., and showing a marching boys'
band. The portrait of Capt. W. H. Santelman, leader
of the U. S. Marine Band, John Philip Sousa, head of
Sousa's Band, and Bohumir Kryl, of Kryl's Band,
further illustrate the ad and show the prominence of
American bandmasters who endorse Conn instru-
ments.
