Train a Boy in Music and He Won't Go Wrong, Says Prof. Ludwig, May 2, 1925

Band Boys Never Go Wrong

Stanly News-Herald

“There would be no use for a Jackson Training School,” said Prof. S.J. Ludwig the other day, “If every boy could be gotten into a band and interested in the study of good music,” Mr. Ludwig then went on to state that he has trained scores of young boys for band service, and not one of them went wrong. “My boys are all fine fellows. None of them are bad. There is something about good music which refines a boy and lifts his thoughts and sentiments above low, mean things.”

That is a very strong testimonial on what the study and influence of good music will do. And there are few men in this country who have trained more musicians than has Prof. Ludwig. He has trained all sorts of boys, and to say that not one of them has gone wrong while a member of one of his bands is quite an eye opener.
