VOCAL TRAINING,
Something About the Teaching Of Lattl
Children to Sing

something About the Teaching Of Little
Children to Sing.
Two questions in connection with the
training OF the voice are to be discussed.
viz: When it should be commenced and
whether it should be interrupted during
the so called cracking" period. With
regard to the first of these questions /
am strongly of opinion that training can
hardly be begun too early. OF course,
the kind and amount of practice that are
necessary in the adult would be mon
strous in young child. but there is no
reason why. even at the age of 6 or z.
the right method OF voice production
should not be taught
Singing, like any other art, Is chiefly
learned by imitation, and Il seems pity
to lose the advantage of those precious
early years when that faculty is most
highly developed. There is no fear of
injuring the l8rynx or straining the
voice by elementary instruction of this
kind On the contrary. it is habitual
faulty vocalization which is pernicious.
The sooner the right way Of using the
voice is taught the more easy will it be
to guard against the contraction Of bad
habits, which can only be corrected at a
later period with infinite trouble.
Many Of the finest voices have been
trained almost from the cradle, SO to
speak. | need only to mention Adelina
Patti, Christine Nilsson. Jenny Lind and
Nine. Albani. but there are numbers of
other queens Of song who owe great
part of their success to the same cause
AS for the other point. am still an OBJ
stinate dissenter from the orthodox"
teaching of singing masters on the sub
ject.
l have already more than once ex-
pressed my belief that there is no reason
why training, within certain limits and
under strict supervision by competent
person, should not be carried on when
the voice is in the transition stage Of its
development from childhood to Adde'S
cence.
The stock argument, invariably ad-
vanced to prove the necessity of suspend
ing the education of the voice till it hats
passed through the breaking" period, is
that, as the parts are undergoing active
changes, they therefore require complete
rest This would equally apply to the
limbs, and, in some degree, also to the
brain. Yet l am not aware that it has
ever been proposed to forbid growing
lads from exercising their bodies, even
in games involving considerable muscu-
lar violence, or to interrupt the education
of the mental powers till the brain has
become fully formed. Over pressure
there may be, no doubt, in voice training
as in other kinds of instruction.
All voices are not capable Of bearing
the same amount of training. Each case
must be dealt with according to what the
doctors call the particular indications"
that may arise, Ny thesis holds good
only as rule, to which there may be
many individual exceptions. A judicious
teacher will, however, have no difficulty
in deciding as to the best course to adopt
in any given instance.-Sir Morell Mac
kenzie in Contemporary Review.

Filling for Nail Holes.

The following method Of filling up nail
holes in wood is not only simple, but said to
be effeclual Take fine saw dust and mix in
to thick paste with glue. pound it into the
hole, and when dry, it will make the wood
as good as new. Frank Christin, Jr., in
.Sioses and HardsOnre, says he has followed
this for thirty years with unvarying success
in repairing bellows, which is the most severe
test known. Often by frequent attachment
of new leather TO old bellows frames, the
wood becomes SO perforated that there is no
space 10 drive the nails. and even if there
was the rema lining holes would allow the air
to escape. A treatment with glue and saw
dust paste invariably does the work. while
lead, putty, and other remedies always fail.
