Comment is being made in Dusedi:\ on the fact that Mr. Owen, conductor of the Besses o' th' Barn Band, put tha Kaikorai Band through the "Heroic" selection, one of the pieces to be played by the band at the Exhibition contosl. \. newspaper controversy followed thin announcement, and an explanation, mndo to a reporter of tho 'Dunedin Star by Mr. J. t)ixon, who' 13 travelling in lioosey's interests with the "Besses," 1 contained somo interesting statements, '"Wo arrived in Wellington on the Riverina," said Mr. Dixon, "and Mr. Owen, who knows Lieutenant Herd, of tha > Wellington Garrison Band, gave him two hours at tha 'Heroic' selection. This was given, not to the band, bnt to Mr. Herd- himself. Mr. Owen explained tha whole run of the selection to him, point, ing out how to make the most of it, and so forth. He then gave about an hours' intorview on another score to Mr. /upp, of Jupp's Band, Wellington. Then came .Mr. Crichton, of the Wangamn Band, and Mr. Owen gave him abo.ifc half sin hour on the 'Heroic' score, bsfcidos Mr. Owen played through the *«.•. loctlon with his own nand for McCrbhton'6 benefit. After that Mr. Owen gay* the Woolston Band about four hours' lesson on c Tannhau3er,' conducting foe them. Many other persons also cama up, and sought Mr. OAvcn's advice its regard to the coming contest, and hn gave his advice freely, in Duncdla Mr. Owen was present at the rehearsal oi l thu Kuikorai Band, and after the playing of tho 'Horoic' he offered them cer» lam suggestions, criticisms and so forth, Uut did not put the band through. If, is Mr. Owen's intention to do the saino for every New Zealand band that a ska his advice, hoping uy this means to bo of some local service in trying to got, the New Zealand bands into tha method of his own band. He is simpler inundated with applications from bandmusters to give advice, and he int=.a '» to do it. This, of course^ is all without money and without price — ho is not seeking to make anything out of it at all."' Capilia Hair Tonic promotes the growth of your hair and prevents it turning grey.
