Jackson Training School Boys to Give Concert, Aug. 29, 1925

Jackson Training School Boys to Give Concert at Mooresville

Mooresville Enterprise

Miss Vernie Goodman of the office force of the Jackson Training School at Concord was in the city a few days ago and arranged with Commander Con Johnston of the American Legion to give a concert at Stewart Park on Friday night, September 4th, at 7:30 o’clock. This is one of the best band organizations in North Carolina, and the young fellows who are coming are to be encouraged by a large audience. There will be no admission fee to any one, but a collection will be taken, the money thus raised to assist the band in defraying incidental expenses and to provide for music and other things so necessary to keep an organization going. The State furnished the instruments, it is true, but there are many extras that go with a band that the State makes no provision for in the expense account.

These young men will be everything and more than could be expected. They are under splendid training and have made good, their services being in demand at many places.
