SEES GHARACTER BUILT BY BAND
C. D. Greenleaf Tells How Music Wields Tremendous Influence on Youth.
The value of the school band as & builder of churacter is emphasized by, C. D. Greenleaf of the Conn Music Center, who rcceived a new inspiration of the worth of music to the boys and girls of the country at the recent National School Band contest; at which hundreds of juvenile musicians in their bands from all parts of the United States fought in a musical fray that demonstrated the spirit and true - sportsmienship of the young musicia. ! “After listening to the performances of these boy bands,” said Mr. Greenleaf, “I am more than ever impressed with the importance of music in the lives of our young school people. It demonstrates teamwork, discipline, perseverance and .gives evidence of whab playing in a band does for the youth as a builder of character in addition to its cultural advantages. “Music is a healthful influence and parents now are learning that the band is better than the ‘gang.’ Music is a

' fine mental stimulant and in a survey , recently made In a mid-western school | it was found that children who studied { music averaged considerably higher in ; all branches of school activities than | those who did not. ~ )} “Educators in schools and colleges ' are realizing more the importance of ! instrumental music. A recent evidence ! of this was the adoption of a resolu‘tio‘n by the department of superin- ' tendence of the National REducation i association, in which it urged the in?clusion of musie in the curriculum on an equality with other basic studies. « That fact is being appreciated by thq | educators today, who are putting “bands and orchestras' in the grade fschools rather than waiting for tha ' iigh school to give the student hi j initial musical training. By the tim . the youngster reaches high school h has so many demands on his time in his social activities and advanceq studles, it is difficult for him to giv the necessary time to the practicing needed to master his instrument, Health Big Factor. “Health also might be mentioned , one of the benefits of learning to pl:; .an instrument and becoming a member lof a school band. Cerrect posture, ‘and breathing must be insisted on, rPhysl'cians often recommend a wlnd , instrument for the boy with an undefveloped chest, Then, too, musid E steadies the nerves and has a relaxin effect on pupils who tend to be tog ? high-strung and undisciplined. i “One of the most encouraging move- ' ments for music in the schools is thq | inclusion of it as part of the vocation. [al training. A pupil now can learn to { be a carpenter, mechanic, printer or . any one of a number of trades and pro- . fessions .at public expense. Music lq fone of the leading professions, and it is being increasingly felt that school | authorities should extend the samgq | sort. of educational advantages to ! youngsters who would take up music | as a life work.” 3
| Boys With Music | Don't “Go Wrong” | Elkhart, Ind—Why band boys & i so much less likely to “go wrong” thm : those not musically trained is ex- [ plained by E. C. Moore, director of the t school bands at Green Bay, Wis., in a | Statement appearing in the symposium ! on school music taken up by the Conn | Music Center here. Said Mr. Moore: ‘ “One of the best results of a good school band is in awakening pride, ' honest pride that anyone is entitled to ! when they have done their work well. It is a sort of self-respect that is ab- \ solutely essential in the make-up of & ‘ useful man or woman, This pride will go far toward keeping their lives right —they will be too proud to do mean, despicable things. A good band with its uniform, bright instruments, its lively music and the applause is made to order to hit almost any boy in the right spot—his heart. o “The care of an instrument and ' meeting the requirements of the band ! develop senses of responsibility, which | will do more to bring.out the latent | manhood of a boy than anything else. i It has a very practical side, also, since ’ there are many positions to be filled every year in bands and orchestras.” Million and a Half of Jews.
