SOLDIERS AND JOBS.
In view of the great vume of pub---
ilic discussion of the Soulier employ-;
inient problem the observations of a
-:man who has been on the firing line
;and is now expressing opinions
through a newspaper's Columns are
of more than the usual interest. Such
:observations are contained in the fol-.
t
f lowing paragrapb from the Bangs En-
terprise of which John 3I. Aiton Jr.
a returned overseas soldier is editor:
"Since being discharged from the
army the editor has befcn in several
Texas cities and in every! one of them
found discharged soldiers walking the
.streets without jobs and apparently
not wanting a job though everywhere
calls are going out for help in many
lines of business. The farmers of the
country are up against a big labor
shortage and are paying big wages to
their lielp and yet these discharged
" inen are walking the streets of the
larger cities declaring they can't get
a Job. Now the editor don't like to

(by mail.) Introducing the
jazz-master to the Maharjah of Cooch
Behar!
He's from New York. Where else
would the. jazz-master to the .Mahara
jah -or Cobch JJehar come from? .His
name is Iioss Sobel. He's an Ameri-
can ragtime pianist.
Mr. Sobel just returned from a long
trip to India informs the English
public .that .the jazi is only about 25
years old and they need not go so
crazy about it being a new thing from
America.
"There jis nothing -new in the ja::"
he tells jhem. "It has been danced
all over America for the last 25 years
and is siijiply a variation of the old-
time ragtime played by the old negro
band consisting of sliding trombones
chir'onettes pianos and trap drums.
j "The word j'azz " he -continues in
J his little- bit of musical education "is
jjust a variation of 'jazzrbo' an Amer
ican negro greeting. For instance:
'How are' you jazz-bo?" which rcallyi
means nothing more than a greeting:.
"The music was first Introduced in-
to London before the war! It has
been well known to members of night
clubs for the last six years and" a
real jazz band was among the attrac-
Cnri's Court in 1914.
then I have been touring
Africa -and India where t was ap
pointed bandmaster to .the Maharajah
Ilehar who is now import-
American ragtime band to
play in .his palace.
The real jazz music is composed
of the beautiful negro melodies from
the Southern States but .1 am afraid
it is being sadly murdered by the
amateur musicians who cannot im-
part to it that native charm which
is tbe principal reason for its world-
wide popularity."
So now . we are to. have the royal
ragtime and the palace jazz.
