is to come into its own again it will add further to those proofs of its value which can be found far back in Bibli- cal and classical chronicles; indeed the history of our own land can provide some stirring talos of how music lent its ins- piring aid to battle.

At Hasting it was the minstrel- knight, Taillefer, who rode out in front of William the Norman's

indeed "a fife is a wry-neck musi- clan, for he always looks away from his instrument."

In the seventeenth century drums and hautboys made up the bands for infantry and dragoons, while trumpets and kettle-drums were assigned to the cavalry. The moun ted drummer has always been an object of admiration, and it is doubtful if his dignity and po pularity could ever have been chal- lenged by the kettle-drummer of the artillery, who in the seven- teenth century rode and played his drums in a four-wheeled open cut- riage somewhat suggestive of the old-fashioned victoria.

The Scots at Bannockburn marched to the strains of "Hey, tuttle, tuttie," the old tune which Burns was to adapt for the immor- tal words of "Scots wha hac," and Froissart has recorded how, few years later, Edward III's army, spent sleepless nights, thanks to Itse

It was carried in front of the band by a huge negro, whose barbarie costume and gestures are, still remembered in the leopard- skins and twirling drum-sticks of modern bandsmed. This "instru- ment" became known to the British' soldier In 1812, when the Con- naught Rangers captured one from the French at Salamanco.

Originally it had been used by the Moors and Its foreign ap- pearance makes it a most suitable and pleturesque standard for the French Spahi cavalry. It dis- appeared from the British Army, howeve about 1830. A very one example of the "Jingling Johnny"! can be seen in the Military Museum of Edinburgh Castle.

In contrast to the trumpeter who, us messenger for truce or surren- der, was accounted a non-com- batant and carried a word with broken point in token of this, the drummer was expected to Bght to The Piper V.C. the death in defence of his drums, since they were highly coveted trophies for an enemy to win.

A pair of kettle-drums taken by Marlborough's men at Malplaquet became famous as "The Tower drums," since they were kept in the Tower of London. Handel often borrowed them from the Master- General of the Ordnance to be played when he was conducting one of his oratorios

This association with the played -composer led to their being

How Bosco la Mado:

...Bosco is made by an exclusive method in which the

selected pure ingredients-cocos, barley malt and dare blended by predigestion, just as would 'occur in

the body, which brings out Bosco's rich chocolatey Hawor Bosco is economical-a little goes a long way. And it's 'so velvety.smooth, oven a child can mix it. A teaspoon- ful of Bosco in a glass of milk, stir a bit and it's ready. Bosco keeps indefinitely without refrigeration. Helps youngsters drink their milk. Many mothers øre enthusiastic about Bosco, because it turns their children into milk enthusiasts..

Why from is important in the Dist

Iron is essential for the formation of good red blood. Everybody needs fron in the diet to help form, fresh blood to replace that which is constantly being used up or destroyed.

Is Your Child Getting Enough Iron? Possibly. But it is an element often low. If your child Is pale and lacking in vitality, this may be the cause. Belter a litila more iron than not enough.

Is There Much Iron in · Bosco?

Sunshino In Bosco and Milk Sunshine Vitamin D, you probably know, is important because the rickets-preventing rays of the sun so often are not available. Children's diets must therefore be reinforced with Vitamin D in order that their bones and teeth may develop straight and strong. Few natural foods supply this clement. Bosco increases the. Vitamin D content of milks and adds Vitamin D where that clement is lacking.

How Much Vitamin D Does Bosco Furaish? Bosco contains 100 USP units of natural v

Vitamin D per ounce. Its addition to milk in the proportion of one teaspoonful to a glass results in a Vitamin D content of 170 units per quart, a unitage somewhat higher, than that of irradiated Vitamin D milk.

Units of Energy in Bosco

The Form of Energy in Bosco

The energy units in Bosco are chiefly in the form of sugar, which are easily and readily assimilated by the body because they are already in a partially digested state. The reputation of dextrosa for quick- energy pickup is equally earned 'by Bosco.
