Want of Support.
It will be a source of general regrot to
know that tho Grant Band, nf tnwn ft.
finally disbanded. For over twenty years it
was tne leauiug musical organization in this
part of the anthracite region and when the
famous Third Brigade band of Pottsvlllo was
lu its palmiest days the Grant Baud was of
sucn standard that several efforts were made
to bring the two in competition to decide
wnicu was really tbo best.
lie history of the organization presents.
iuaujr luniures wnicu are almost pathetic.
But a few yfars ago It was tbe pride of the'
town and an attraction sought by many of
mo larger towns oi tno state. When the
nana accompanied local organizations to
other places to participate in parades its ran
ditlons along the routes and at serenades and
open-air concerts received the most flattering
plaudits of the multitudes. It became famous
in many parts of the state and, so
enthusiastic did the people of town
become over Its success, a few years
ago voluntary movement was insug
u rated to maintain it hy mil, Ho anU,.Ln
Unfortunately there was less zeal and activity
iaiu piuiuiso 111 connection witu the move
ment, and it eventually died out. During
iuv uaab iuw iiiontns near v an ,, n ii.l.
