THE TOWN ll.X\l>.
Uegardless of the undoubted pro
cress of clvle administration the
country over, in quite the majority
of smaller towns ami communities
there ts one requisite seriously neg-
lected.
That Is the town band.
Whether you prefer to call il the
Philharmonic, the Sv inphony, the
Municipal, the Pryor Concert Hand
or just the town hand Every com-
munity should have not just a hand,
hut a good bund a band that is the
pride of the people and the pinnacle
of every small boy's ambition
A good hand in the iowii is good,
lull the essential feature is that It he
Hie town's band, and not a private
band that demands high wages and
plays only for the more fortunate
who can afford to pay high prices to
hear it. It should he a hand that
plays for all the people the bankers,
the merchants, the laborers, the wo-
men and children alike and especi-
ally the children.
It is trite to say that music is b< .
eiVclul to children Everyone know?
that Dot perhaps all have not tlio't
how much a really good band, under
a competent leader, playing the very
Ims! of the vvorlfl's music can stimu-
late the child's ambition to know and
10 play good music
No child who understands high
class music will ever care greatly for
jazz” and the general run of low
class dance hall music. The dance
intisic can be of just as high quality
as church music -if one be properly
educated in what is music and what
Is mere trash.
We suggest to the folks of this
community that they give this mat-
ter serious consideration
Here we have our full quote anil
over of musical talent, but to train
that talent costs money. One inn
noi expect the individual to bear the
expense of this training and then
give his services free of charge.
Sinn- the hand is for every one. I 1
everyone pay for the hand It is just
as important as sanitation Pay *'01

An Easy Way to Get Bigger
Grain Yields with Less Seed
Planting with a grain drill,
instead of with a broadcast
•eeder will cause you no more
work, in fact, considerably lets,
and in a short time the saving
in seed will pay for the drill.
That, in itarlf, is sufficient
reason why we want you to arc
the John Deere-Van Brunt Grain
Drill we have on display. There
are other reasons that apply only
to the Van Brunt. This drill
has a patented, adjustable gate
force feed that successfully
handles any site need from alfalfa
to bearded oats without chok-
ing.
The force feed compels the
seed to leave the grain Ini in
even continuous streams and the
seed is protected until It reaches
the bottom of the furrow.
That is why a field planted
with a Van Brunt Drill makes
such a pleating appearance to
the eye—and why it add* extra
money to your bank account.
All of the grain la ready for
harvest at one time. There are
no bare spots in the field and
you can feel absolutely aura
that no teed is waited in plant-
ing. Come in and let ua show
you how easy It la to regulate the
flow of seed to that aa equal
amount to placed in each farrow
—simply moving a lever regu-
lutes the quantity sown.
