Each year there has been a Parade of Harmony 'with the local chorus, The Horseless Carriagemen, and each of the local quartets making an ap- pearance. ALL WALKS Here are some of the aims of the organization: 1. To' maintain Barbershop Quartet singing as a tradition- al form of North American Folk singing. 2. To give every person an opportunity to. sing in an or- ganized quartet, and to encour- {age the formation of as many arranged in the style.

As such, the note intervals are fixed ab- solutely by the physical laws of harmonic sound. To harmonize properly, one must use tone adjustment by acute ear sense. FACTS ABOUT SOCIETY The vastness of the organiza- tion is shown in a membership of over 30,000 and 650 Chapters in every state and attending province in North America. From these Chapters, over 500 Choruses and 2,600 Quartets offer fun and fellowship for "congenial men of good char- acter.
