N1  - ABSTRACT :  the world's Fair had long been a showcase of the progress and enlightenment of the modern Western nation, justified partly through the popularization of the new field of sociology that provided a linear evolutionary model of human sociocultural development. This model was available for illustration in St. Louis in 1904 largely due to the American possession of the Philippines. The new colony boasted many ethnic groups at various levels of social and cultural development, allowing the Fair organizers to display both the range of the evolutionary sociocultural continuum and the benefits of American colonialism in one large 47-acre habitat.Another effective method through which the continuum was realized was popular music at the Fair, especially in the many military - style bands that performed there, including the Philippine Constabulary Band.; 5
