13he Band ■ (• M he Horace Mann School band was organized in the summer of 1925. The enrollment at m that time was nine students. Some of these boys have continued with the band without any extended absence. Great credit is due those who helped mould the project, now so much a part of the community life of the present fine school center at Horace Mann. Mr. C. D. Lutz, the principal, launched the project and was instrumental in placing in charge of the budding or¬ ganization, Mr. E. V. Roesler, who has continuously tried to make this department comparable to the splendid bands in other schools of the city. The faithful thirty-five boys who came to these evening rehearsals are the ones who are re¬ sponsible for putting the “Band Wagon” into motion. When that was done, it was easy to find plenty who were willing “to get on to ride.” This fact is evinced by the present enrollment of 210 children who meet every afternoon during the three hours from one to four. Among that num¬ ber there is included, the promising girl’s band of fifty-five pieces (still in the junior stage,) the boy’s junior band of seventy pieces, and the select boy’s Concert Band of seventy pieces; this lat¬ ter organization will extend to eighty when suitable instrumentation can be secured. Then too, there is a beginner’s class. The band has many loyal supporters, who have been firm friends in the past. The band stu¬ dents hope to further merit the loyalty of these promoters and to fulfill their expectations in the future. Thirty
