fi 1 — — U. S. Schools Buildinq a Nation $ * ft. | of Musicians fHE public schools are building ? for America a nation of musi- , cians. This, in-a sentence, is. the _ _ _ explanation for the extraordinary interest in music at " present displayed by all ages and classes of society offered by nearly a score of noted artists, educators and other j leaders, included in a symposium compiled by the Conn Music Center, Elkhart, Ir.d. The Music Center was lead to secure the opinions on the value of music to the public school pupil that follow by the publication of government figures showing a j large gain in the number of professional musicians, and further indicating that the sale of musical instruments throughout the country' has more than doubled in the past twelve years.

According to the published figures, there are now in the United States as many musicians as there are clergymen or lawyers and five times as. many as there are journalists. This, of course, does not take count of the thousands of semi-professional and amateur musicians who are doing part-time work teaching, singing in choirs, or earning extra dollars by working on the side with violin and saxophone. Figures from the same source* also show that while the value of musical instruments turned out in 1914 was only $119,000,000, in 1923 the figure had risen to $242,000,000 and is steadily going up. „ . Os the millions of boys and girls who are entering high schools in America this fall, the Conn Music Center estimates that close to a million will have some sort _

are showing unmistakable signs ox wanting to take an active part in creating music. Sportively speaking, it might be interpreted to mean that the rising generation is tiring of watching a baseball game when the opportunity is there to go out and play golf. Unquestionably, there is a growing inclination on the part of Americans to develop their “musical bump." Frederick Neil Innes, one of the greatest bandmasters of all times and now head of a unique institution m Chicago which aims to train band men as well as band leaders, thinks that the present amazing popularity of I instrumental music among young folk is a reaction to i the distress experienced by their parents In being forced to tak* vocal work in the schoolroom in their youth. The boy in the adolescent stage, he says, will not sing bej cause he has “no voice to sing with,” but given a trombone, cornet or any other instrument, it is amazing with what energy he will apply himself to it, Mr. Innes is a strong believer that band and orchestra are vastly superior to the vocal class as a training medium and in this he ia seconded by several of the contributors to the symposium. Another new thought on music in the schools is advanced by C. D. Greer.leaf, for ten consecutive years president of the National Association of Band Instrument Manufacturers. He thinks instrumental music should be included in the manual training course of the school curriculum. “Our schools have been devel-

oped so that now a child can learn to be a car- ™ JKSLSS pen ter, mechanic, printer or a member of a ™tien£ suffering number of other professions, all at public 1 T , - . . v , fcil T„_ .< v»_ «_,(,« nnt mt-A.

The es« spirit is lifting its head and today DR - Herman n. BUNDESEN feet of this on the musical life of our country the United States is developing would be immense. One of the reasons chil-

i more musicians and embryo musicians than ever before. “No matter how far short he may be from the accepted standards of his instrument, the player derives far more satisfaction and pleasure in the knowledge that he la creating music than he could possibly feel from the strains of the modern roasters, artificially reproduced. “It is a serious problem with many parents these days to find wholesome methods of recreation for their children. The hand and orchestra furnish sn ideal outlet for the energies of the ‘gang’ which might otherwise be expressed in ways not nearly so Healthful. It is pretty generally agreed that while the child is growing up is the best time to imbue him with a knowledge and love for music. The child has the time to devote to it, and learns music readily. By not giving him a musical education in childhood, we are probably depriving him of the joys of music forever."

National School of Music, Chicago:—America is destined to be the leading nation of the world in the realm of *music. It does not yet rank with Germany, France, Hungary, Italy or England. But she is climbing. It is the music in the public schools which will give America her supremacy. Fully eighty per cent of the high schools have some musical organization, orchestra or band. No other country offers her young people such opportunity to know, to appreciate and to play good music. I believe the band or orchestra is vastly superior to the vocal class. Why? Because the boy in the adolescent stage simply will not sing. He may be compelled to go through the motions, but he will not actually sing. He refuses for the simple reason that he has no voice to sing with. But give him a trombone or a cornet, or any other instrument of the band, and watch, his progress. It is amazing how he will work and study. There is no question but the public schools are wise in devoting more time to instrumental instruction. When music occupies a position in the school on an equal footing with mathematics and history America will have capable musicians. Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, Commissioner of Public Health, Chicago:—David’s harp drove away Saul’s ill humor. Music plays a vital part today in the mind and body of the nation. We have learned that tones can play a vital part in the treatment of the men-

The loss to business in overseas Lade is estimated at a billion, three hundred millions of dollars; $125*000,000 was paid to the operators as a bonus; more than $200,000,000 paid as relief to workers families; and imports were increased nearly half a billion of dollars. The most disastrous feature of the attempt to cut wages and increase the hours is the ‘ fact that exporters of other countries have tied up the trade on long contracts, and nearly 800,000 of the tmillion striked have voted to continue the strike. It i is a most disastrous blow to British industry that will re- ; quire tnany years to remedy—if it is ever possible. ! -o VIRGINIA’S EXAMPLE i Profiting by the example set i by Virginia, where an average , of 1,600 miles of highway is being constructed by convic* labor i at a saving of about S3OO per i year on each convict.

~ r? t HOUSEHOLD HINTS I Keep bread in a ventilated box, crackers in tight tins. A few crumbs of unsalted crackers are better than flour to thicken juicy fruit pies. A paste made of flour and water or soda and water put upon a burn i?i generous amounts will keep the air off, the pain and usually prevent blistering. Castor oil rubbed welKjnto - boots or shoes will help to preserve the leather and lengthens the life of the boots. Any oil can be used, but castor oil is the best. ( A thick slice of ham, with raw, sliced potatoes spread over it, ) and baked in milk for about an V hour and a half, is unusually good. Sprinkle the potatoes'! with flour you put them I in the dish. \ Milk soups and milk puddings s contribute to the total amount of the children take, as do milk sauces and flavored milk - drinks. Sometimes a drug store straw will help in persuading a finicky child to try one of these milk drinks. The only way to be sure of a piece of colored goods won’t run is to take a sample home and wash it. If you think it might fade, cover part of it and expose the rest to sunlight for at least a week. Household methods of setting colors are useless. Instead of candy, make sweets to tuck in the school lunch boxes by grinding together in .the meat chopper 1 pound of, figs, 1 pound of dried prunes or seedless raisins, (or both) and 1 lb. of nutmeats. Mix thoroughly, roll out until about half an inch thick on a board dredged with confectioner’s sugar, and cut into small pieces. Or make into balls, rolled in the sugar. Wrap in paraffin paper to keep. o . —-— Henry Walsam, aged 90, of London, has returned a marriage license he got in June, reporting that his bride-to-be, aged 37, had changed her mind.
