theater under the direction Of Con-
ductor c. ]. Thomas. Mr.. Give played
first violin in the theater orchestra in
1875, and later he studied under sew
eral eminent instructors In Boston,
Mass. His tone is pure and sympathe-
tic. and he plays with precision such
music as the Sonata by Bach and Mem
delssohn's Concerto.
Endowed with a modest and retiring
disposition, his success is due not only
to natural ability, but through cease
less energy and untiring perseverance
ne Is recognized among the first OF our
leading artists. Mr.. Gives compost
tons are on sale at the leading music
centers and several of his anthems are
In use throughout the country.
He Is n recognized successful teacher
of piano and violin. and has a reputa-
ton for patience and close attention

same time the voice is trained and
the pupil II familiarized with the re-
latons of all the tones IN the diatonic

II trained by means of the stan, key
signatures, the simpler musical nomen-
clature, rests, measures, tempo, marks,
etc, and then the pupils are tested to
see how far they have learned to use
their tone and voice vocabularies,
In the second grade the children are
made TO distinguish accurately the diff
ferent keys with only the sounding
Of the pitchpipe In c to guide them.
As for instance, the supervisor blows
his pipe and then tells child TO sound
correctly various tones in the scale.
That this is being constantly done
shows that there IS a natural musical
talent IN the average child that ought
not TO be overlooked: at the same time,
II encourages the Instructor, and he Is
able by enthusiastic application TO his
work to bring out the best results. In
the other grades there Is a steady and
well regulated development toward
higher departments In the same line OF

The supervisor has given. through

ers and comments upon their works
He has also started an interest
