BAND ORGANIZED.
An organisation Effected With
Twenty-One Persons Steps at Once
Taken for the Instruments Needed
A Splendid Beginning-If the mem
bers Will Stlcli Tosfetlier.
It has been rather bad on Con
cord to know that oat of our popu
latioa of oyer eeven thousand people
there were nob about twenty; persona
who could sacrifice some of their
4 . '
time for the sake of haying a band
when the time came for one.
Knowing the need . of one, and
realizing the fact that Concord had
the talent if it could only be gotten
tnceiuer, u uruBuizauuu was ex
fected Monday night in the drniri
corpa hall. Twenty-one names were
" enrolled and placed to different in
struments. There - are probably
8eyeral others that might join, while
possibly some one already enrolled
might withdraw. Mr. H M Bar
row was elected chairman, and Mr.1
Kobt. Ridenhour secretary. The
other officer, leader and treasurer.,
will be elected at ,the next meeting.
Bat in order that, the .band may
mov along at first it will necessa-.
rily have to meet with some favor
and encouragement from our peo
ple, and some have already, expressed
their willingness to help them., ft
is not at this time decided- what
step will be taken Jo; raise some nec
essary funds.' JTour instruments,
and the moat important instruments,
too, will have to be " purchased!
There will be four clarionet players
8iid three or four cornets, "which
should give a good lead. Besides,
three of Concord's most musical
men will take prominent parts on
the other part of the arrangement.
Of couTse the people will for
quite a number of months think the
band is not getting along, as it will
require quite a while to teach some
of the younger members. But it is
hoped that ere .another year passes
by they can give Guncord soma exo
cellent music and prove themselves
an honor to our place.

A Socialistic Community in Tennessee-All
Things In Common.
Some years ago we saw a number
f copies of the Coming Nation; ad
ored greatly by some, but thor
ny disgusting to the writer.
What time the sheet wai not rad
ically scathing everything .in : sight
il was advocating a socialistic com
canity where competitive evils
ehonld be eliminated from the life
tfman, We are gratified , to find
that thia sociialiatic community has
ben formed and the theory is being
tested. The radical editor ..ibtew
