should be borne in mind that it is not safe to
make deductions offhand concerning the de-
gree OF general culture attained by a people
from the decree Of forwardness or backward
ness exemplihed by any elemental princ-
PIE. Primitive instruments will be found in
Use in the Orient side by side with highly de-
veloped examples OF the same class and an
indigenous type which has existed thousands
of years may hang cheek by jowl with an i'm
ported creation of the last century This may
help to a realization of one thing OF large
value. which is that while it is profitable to
study the musical instruments of savage races
for the sake Of observing primitive exempliiica-
tons Of principles ii as unwise to argue from
their discovery that the races in which they
found are young or just setting out on their
journey toward civilization Some African
tribes still make use Of their hunting bow as a
musical instrument while their neighbors or
perhaps they themselves. employ the principle
of a fingcrboard to which from all the evidence
yet adduccd, 1t would seem the highly polished
Greeks never attained. Yet the Greeks knew
all that We know to-day about the mathemati-
cal and musical ratios of the divided string
