With the approach of the year's end, Harlem School Band has a full program. This week the spring concert was given at the Civic Center on Tuesday evening under the direction of Miss Janice Johnson.

A varied program of band music was interpreted in a manner pleasing to an audience of nearly two hundred.

Mrs. Bernice Hebert, xylorimba, and Mrs. Myrtle Hebert, piano, were guest artists.

This week-end the band goes to Glasgow to participate in the Band Festival and the following Saturday they will attend the Festival at Havre.

The Havre festival, in which Harlem has participated since its origin, is being resumed after the three war years.

To date twenty bands are listed for appearance in daytime concerts, a street parade and an evening mass concert.
