FORMING A BAND.

It is a healthy sign of the times that every town and village wants its band. If you are forming one in your locality, it will be to your advantage to communicate at once with the Dresden Piano Company, Ltd., Wellington. They are sole agents for Hawkes’ Excelsior Sonorous Band Instruments. These arc the finest in the world. They arc used by champion bands everywhere. The Ballarat City Band won the Australasian • Championship again last year, playing on Hawkes’ instruments. They are superb in quality and tone. Each instrument, is spocinlly tuned by one of the most highly skilled musicians in London. The inclusion of one, two, or three Hawkes’ instruments in a band is immediately noticeable, owing to the great, added richness of tiie tone. A oand all Hawkes’ must be the acme or perfection, so far as the instruments go. Write in for particulars. Tire Dresden Piano Company, Ltd., Wellington. North Island manager: M. J. Brookes. Local representative: G. W. Mills, stationer, Broadway, Stratford (late Cargill’s).
