MORE comes out of a horn than music, or in other words the advantages to the boy or girl who plays in the school band or orchestra are not confined to the musical education and good times he gets out of doing it. College presidents, professors and directors of music all attest to the farreaching profits which such training give the student. Out of 157 of such authorities ce-operating in a survey made by the Conn Music Center, 154 specifically mentioned the characterbuilding quality of music study. Learning to play an instrument calls for perseverance; self-discipline, patieuce, poise are some of the sterling qualities it develops. ; ‘ln line with these is the spirit of co-operation, of team work and the learning to subordinate one’s own interests for the sake of the group which many a boy or girl learns for the first time when he joins the school band or orchestra. ‘ The cultural advantages received second emphasis—the ability to enjoy good music’as well as the other arts. A little actual experience in playing gives the greatest understanding of the problems of the professional musician and an appreciation of his genius. Equally valuable is the so-called mental training which playing in a band or orchestra affords the young stu-

(CMUST be a band concert here tonight.,” That’s the conclusion to be reached in driving through a town where every street is lined with parked cars and streams of machines are pouring in from all diré®tions. That the stirring strains of the fiddle, fife and drum are invaluable agents in getting communities together is attested by the fact that no fewer than 2G of our 48 states have enacted band laws which permit the levying of -a small tax for the support of a municipal band. ' This flourishing situatioh is brought to light by a survey made by the Conn Music Center in which the progresgive states were found to be: Alabama, California, Colorado, Illinois, lowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi,

WORKING one's way through college has always challenged the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the American student. Playing poker with invalids, giving one’s blood for transfusion and trick flying are a few of the novel methods that have been used. Most means, however, are far less spectacular and diverting. Shoveling snow, stoking the furnace and mowing the lawn in return for room claims the spare time of most self-supporting studepts. “Slinging hash,” selling over the counter and from "door to.door and doing clerical work are other wellworn routes to a degree. ; AR Cashing in on musical talent, and agilllty to play an iostrument iS another path that is attracting more and more students, buotn men and women, every year.

dent. Clear thinking, accuracy, concentration, quick adaptability are some of the qualities which music stimulates and whose effects-are shown in otheg fields of endeavor. i : Improved health 1s still another advantage, induced by relaxing the nerves, improving the posture and expanding the lung capacity which various types of music study involve. Financial awards, too, are coming to the young musician who earus pocket money, opens a savings account or even earns his way through school by playing or teaching some musical instrument. - ; Speaking of the relation of rausic to health recently, Senator Royal .S. Copeland, formerly health commissioner of New York City, said: “I think there can be no doubt that education in music adds to the happiness and general welfare of the individual. The rhythm and pleasurable emotions excited by inspiring music have their effect on the health. It is not alone the increase of lung capacity from the blowing of a cornet or other wind instrument, but it is the general sense of well-being and stimulation associated with the enjoyment of music which has te do with its value, The purpose of exercise is to stimulate the action of the heart. Pleasurable sensations will accomplish exactly the same result.” ¢ .

Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, ‘Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Wisconsgin. Similar legislation is pending in Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky and New Mexico. -The amounts of the tax to be levied depend on the size of the town. They usually range from one-half mill to two mills per dollar of assessed valuation. The pionéer state in this movement was Towa and many of the statutes in other states are based on the Jowa band law. This provides that the tax may be levied only after a certain percentage of qualified voters have petitioned to bring the guestion to a vote and a favorable balloting has been made. The tax may be repealed in the same way. : .

the reasons for this. While singing in a church choir or playing the piano for gymnasium and dancing classes provides a considerable number with extra dollars, by far the majority of students who earn money with music are found in the college ‘bands ‘apd orchestras. & e

Out of 7,238 students in these music groups in 155 colleges and unlifversities‘ recently investigated by the Conn Music Center, 1,980 or 27 per cent of the- entire group were found to be edrning their way through- college by means of their musiec, In some small communities, opportunities of this sort are rather scarce: but in the average city students are quick to take advantage of the chances to play for dances, theaters, and classwork, to teach and otherwise to turn their mu. sical training into cash.
