ARMYBAHDMAST VISITS £83* 1 SEVERAL INTERESTING PLACES IN FRANCE HENRY RANWEILER ATTENDED OFFICERS' TRAININGS fcL- SCHOOL. The finest music Haydn Hofmeister e\er heard was played by a German string orchestra of about 25 pieces at the Rhine city of Coblenz. Mr. Hof meister was a member of several national army bands France and in the occu pied territory of Germany and as such had occasion to see a large part of these countries While at Coblenz he had occasion to attend a Kammermusik Konzert which made him feel hk'e taking a back seat, he said, when it comes to the playing of real music And Haydn is not a bad musician at that. Proof of this we have in the fact that he at one time of his military career was delegated to instruct at the central American school in France at Gondre Court, and that at present-he is assis tant bandmaster of the 150th Field Artillery band, 42nd Division With this band to which he belonged when he left France, April 18, and which ar rived in New York April 25, he will tour the state of Indiana for about six weeks Played At Base Hospital.

A few weeks later they were ordered to Gondre Court where all the national bands were reorganized according to the abilities of the players. Each member had to take an examination and after that was assigned either to one of the .bands in the Rhine province, only the best players being chosen for this duty, or to bands returning home soon. Mr. Hofmeister's band was stationed at Neuenahr, Ger many, where they were billeted in sev eral Hotels receiving the best treatment they had experienced so far while in Europe. They remained there until April 9 when they left for the French port of Brest, "to embark for the United States April 18. While at Pengieux Haydn was offered an occasion to see the well known^French opera "Le Troubadour" by Verdi. The singing was beautiful, he says, and it was a real treat for the boys.

After a short stay here he will go to Indianapolis to rejoin his band which is to make a con cert tour throughout the state of Indiana of several weeks duration. Attended Offiicers' School.
