The subject of vocal music is re-
ceiving more attention at the hands
OF educators than usual. There are
many reasons why our public school
work should embrace instruction in
vocal music. ts
physically, the result of such in.
struction is OF great Importance. 1t
brings into activity many OF the i'm
portant muscles of the body. 1t
promotes the circulation ofthe blood.
It strengthens the lungs by expand
ing the air cells; many persons never
till the lungs in breathing, and as a
result the airc ellis at the extremities
OF the lungs frequently close perma-
nently and become diseased. Judi
cious and regular drill in vocal music
prevents this closing of the air-cells,
and tends to open those already clos
ed and to restore them to healthful
action. When pupils become weary,
live song is a good substitute for
a recess without the disorder that IL
recess often brings.
