A peep into some Of our great Grassland
factories Is most instructive. and cannot but
make an impression upon even q casual
visitor. AL
While we are upon the subject Of musical
trade, as q means Of skilled employment.
the work of tuners. regulators and music
shop assistants deserves notice.
The tuner fills a very important part in
the world of music; he may even be COM

regulates the arrangement of physical
nerves and masticating organs! p
TUNERS OFTEN WELL PAID.
A good tuner with respectable connec-
ton may earn very fair livelihood.
Generally such a man Is attached to q
large firm. as in that way he is in the re-
ceipt of regular salary. according to eff
ficiency.
The music shop assistant requires. II he
be successful salesman, more or less Of
musical training.
He is often desired to try pianos or
other musical instruments; to play over
new music, and in other ways to display a
good ear and judgment in tone matters. The
days are surely gone by when callings such
as these are despised by risht-n,inded peo-
pie. 37
They necessitate strict business hours, but
are none the less healthfuli and Of a much
more permanent nature than the unfettered

Bypaths Of

In this serfes Of articles about music Annie W.
Patterson, an English woman. approaches her
subject from Q British viewpoint. Har sugges-
tons and opinions are. however. IN most partic.
uiars. applicable to conditions In the United
States.
WRITTEN FOR rIIE SUNDAY REPUBLIC
Outside the spheres Of the teacher, or
ganist, vocalist. instrumentalist. operate
artist. conductor and composer-aH of
which We have briefly touched upon in the
preceding articles-there are many musical
workers who aid in the material progress
OF music as an art, and these. or as many
OF them as can conveniently be specified.
We will now refer to as far as the space at
our disposal permits.
Our great instrument manufacturers-in
aiding much toward the development Of
music as practical science-deserve initial
notice.
Only those intimate with the details of
the work of large pianoforte factories know
now much skilled labor of myriad kinds
may be embodied in the turn OUT Of a
single concert grand.
From the first pianoforte of Cristofori to
the late hairless invention Of Messrs. John
Broadwood & Sons. represents an immense
stride OF mechanical development.
Turning to the violin. we find the history
OF its growth reads like romance; nor
can great artisans like the Amatis and
stradivarius who brought this wonderful
little instrument to perfection. be denied
their niche OF honor in the temple of Musi
cal Fame.
The organ. the harp. military band in
struments. the orchestral group. even the
village church harmonium, and the homeiy
concertina, require skilled mechanical la
Dor for their constructions; and all are the
result Of many centuries Of inventive
thought and constant Improvement Of de-
dgn in workmanship
