The Marine Band has, down
through the years, come to be
known unofficially as “the Presi
dent's Own.” President John Ad
ams approved a bill for its estab
lishment in 1798 and it continues
today as the official White House
Band.
In its nation-wide" tours, con
ducted annually except in war
time, the band had visited every
state in the union to play before
audiences both young and old.
It has also visited many exposi
tions and world fairs, including
the Chicago Columbian Exposi
tion and the Omaha Trans-Missis
sippi Exposition.
Tours Began in 1891
The 'annual tours, which started
under the direction of John Phil
lip Sousa in 1891, have given
Americans living outside the
Washington area an opportunity
to see and hear the world famous
band, whose history goes back
farther than that of the capital
city itself.
The band has expressed musi
cally the greeting of our nation
to visiting royalty and foreign
dignitaries. It has supplied the
musical setting for every White
House wedding, including those
of Nellie Grant and Alice Roose
velt. It has played for all official
functions and ail important his
tory-making events since its
founding.
Among the foreign notables for
whom the band has played are
King George and Queen Eliza
beth of England, Queen Elizabeth
II of England, Queen Juliana of
the Netherlands and the Crown
Prince and Crown- Princess of
Sweden.

Poet Cites
Immortality
Of Poetry
Dr. Richard Eberhart. poet in
residence at Dartmouth, said]
Thursday night that poetry is a
form of knowledge and will al
ways stay in the minds of men.
He spoke at the first Liberal
Arts Lecture Series of the semes
ter in Schwab Auditorium.
Comparing poetry to a mobile,
which is suspended between a
ceiling and a floor. Dr. Eberhart
said that poetry is between heav
jen and earth, and contains a
solidity and duration which may
still change.
Emitted From Soul
He said that though poetry is
based on words, it should be emit
ted from the soul. A poem should
be able to do something for the
reader, he said.
‘‘The Ground Hog” was the first
poem Dr. Eberhart read. He said
it was written from an experience
of his in Pennsylvania and that
it was his best-known poem.
'All Thing; Must Pass*
On the surface the poem was
about the death of a ground hog,
but it really told about the im
permanence of man and civiliza
tion, reaching the conclusion that
all things must pass, he said.
Dr. Eberhart read poems about
love, life, and amusing incidents.
They included “The Fury of Aerial
Bombardment,” "Song of Remem
berance,” “The Horse Chestnut
Tree,” “Cousin Florence," and
“Clocks.”
