Indian Music.

A student of music of the aborigines
states that the Indians have innumera-
bic songs which conform TO a definite
melOdic system. Many persons have
been led to believe that Indian music
consists wholly of drums. whoops and
yelIs. but, in the face of twenty years
serious study of the matter and thou
sands of phonograph records, this be-
lief is fast disappearing. These mel
odies are all indissolubly linked to leg.
ends. myths. ceremonials or religious
rituals of the greatest poetic and dra-
matte beauty.
