I Le Conte Bands VVe are very proud of our junior and Senior Bands which are under the inspiring direction of Joseph Jean Gilbert. VVe sometimes enter the Audi- torium to the strains of a spirited march played by our bands, and when they play the exit march we are always loath to leave. The combined bands played for the Teachers' Institute and our teachers reported that they were very proud of our musicians and lVIr. Gilbert. The bands, when in full dress, are costumed in white except for blue and gold ties and blue and gold bands across their caps. When we see them marching in full regalia we think they are the best band in the city.
