Parr to Have a Band; Begin Practice Wednesday.

The town of Parr will not be lacking for music the coming year. ’ A band organization has been effected and the instruments ordered. Practice will be begun Wednesday under the leadership of Prof. Vaughn, of Lowell. The members of the band are largely young and inexperienced, but they are starting in with an enthusiasm that should result in a first-class organization. They are, Vick Comer, Frank McCurtain, Jay Wilcox, Ross Rowen, Frank King, Estel Price, Andrew Potts, Matt Wentland, Dussie Porter, James Hopkins, Jim Babcock, jr., while one or two others will probably join later.
