BAND INSTRUMENTS F O R UNIVERSITY.

FAIRBANKS
BAND INSTRUMENT FIELD
Bamberger's, Newark, N. J., Proves That Brass
Music-Makers Fit Well in Department Stores.
Department stores are finding band instruments a
most profitable addition to their music departments.
This is well illustrated by the fact that the Bam-
berger store of Newark, N. J., reports their musical
instrument department topped all other departments
of the store in increase over the previous year for
1924. A feat worthy of more than ordinary consid-
eration owing to the fact that the Bamberger store
is of such magnitude and operates so many depart-
ments that to lead the field in increase is quite some
noteworthy accomplishment.
In commenting on the showing of the musical in-
strument department, Fred A. Holtz, of the Martin
Band Instrument Company, declares it is typical of
what the aggressive department stores are doing that
have added Martin Handcraft instruments to their
line. Mr. Holtz declares there are many other ex-
amples as notable as the Newark experience, and be-
lieves it points to the selling of a considerable volume
of band instruments by department stores in the
future.
T H E ROLLING DRUMS.
Have you noticed, when the tooting
Of the band comes sweeping down,
How the people all come scooting
From far distant parts of town?
When you hear the drums a-tapping
And the horns go tooting by,
'Tis the rap, tap, tap-a-tapping
Makes the folks step quick and high.
For there's something in the manner
Of the sound that stirs the heart,
And the flutter of the banner
Causes every nerve to start!
Other music, playing sweetly,
Every vagrant impulse numbs,
But there's nothing so completely
Thrills us as the rolling drums.
