Pupils of the three lower grades of the school are staging the festival. Band at Skokie School Rapidly Learning Tunes The Skokie school band is progress- ing very favorably, according to Mrs. P. B.

It has a personnel of 30 boys and is directed by Edward Mel- zer, director of the Northwestern uni- versity band.
