Kuehne, 607 Glenview avenue, Tuesday, Jan. 17. All members are asked to bring a white elephant package to this For the past three years the band has been .under the able leadership of Mr. Bert Greene, a former asâ€" sistant bandmaster in the Ameriâ€" can . Expeditionary . Forces in the late world war. Mr, Greene, in adâ€" dition to his work with the band, teaches arithmetic in‘ the . sixth grade. The great improvement in the band during the past three years is due largely to Mr. Greene‘s hard work and enthusiasm., There ‘are a number of benefits that the children derive from their band work. In addition to learning some of the fundamentals of handâ€" ling an instrument, possibly one of the greatest byâ€"products is the abilâ€" ity to work as a part of a cooperâ€" ative unit.. The playing of an inâ€" strumient has been a decided psyâ€" chological aid to certain children, in that it has been an avenue of successful endeavor and has thus helped to give them a feeling of happiness and of greater security. This sense of security is sometimes reflected in the general toning up of a child‘s reactions and accomâ€" plishments in all of his work,. Anâ€" other decided benefit of band expeâ€" rience is the happiness and fufl: pride of accomplishment that it nishes to the entire personnel, One of the high points of the year for the band and for the paâ€" trons of the school is the annual Ice Cream Social and Band Conâ€" cert which is held near the end of the school year under the sponsorâ€" ship of the Band Mothers Club. The proceeds of this endeavor are used for purchasing needed supplies for the band. In addition to this funcâ€" tion, the band serves the commuâ€" nity at various times. Last year they played for the annual Amerâ€" ican Legion Children‘s Christmas Party, for a number of our school assemblies, for the Decoration: Day parade, and for several local club functions. In May, the band had an interestâ€" ing and a helpful experience .when they played for the disabled vetâ€" erans at Base Hospital 105 at North Chicago. 7 Grade School Band Popular Diversion Progresses Rapidly sistedâ€"of fortyâ€"three children,. Sixâ€" teen of these were lost by graduâ€" ation and two others moved out of the district. This necessitates a period of careful training for youngâ€" er children who are to serve as reâ€" placements. utivm‘l in the school. : There are now 39 members in the regular band and there are 22 more children in the beginners‘ band. This number will doubtless increase considerably before next June. The present memâ€" bership is made up of children from the third through eighth grades. The Elm Ptace school band has experienced a rapid and an interâ€" esting growth during the last sevâ€" eral years,.

The strain on the purse is quite heavy during the holiday : season and many persons find it easier to pay for Christmas Seals in January. It is never too late to pay for Christmas Seals as the work goes on constantly all through the year. Nne contributor called the office recently | stating her â€" contribution would: be a little late as she was including payment for her Seals in her January budget. â€" Another sent back one sheet.of Seals, saying that he would mail the money for the used Seals when heâ€"received his first pay check in January. The appeal for "Hunt Week" made by the Lake County Tubercuâ€" losis Association through the colâ€" umns of the newspapers of Lake gounty was a success, Three hunâ€" dred fifty persons searched for their Christmas Seals and mailed or ‘brought their contributions to the office of the Association. More than seven thousand reâ€" mindersare being mailed this week to th:: holding Christmas Seals hoping the response will enable the Association to reach the goal of $8,000. j : The steady stream of letters conâ€" taining money for Christmas Seals proves that altho Christmas is gone the spirit of unselfish love for felâ€" low men still lives.
