TEACHES PUBLIC SCHOOL
MUSIC.

The training of teachers in methods
of musical instruction for public schools
is an important line of work that is be
ing developed in the school of music in
the University of Wisconsin. The in
struction is designed for teachers OF
other branches who are required to
conduct musical exercises incidentally,
as we'll as for teachers and supervisors
who devote their entire time to musical
instruction in schools. The develop
ment of this new field is the result of
the avowed policy of the state univer-
sity to be of the greatest possible assist
auce to all the educational interests of
the state. The Importance of this nor
NAL training in music in raising the
standard of musical instruction, and
eventually of the musical tastes of the
community, can not be estimated. The
course in public school music was or
ganized two years ago, and MIR. Her
man E. Owen was secured to take
charge of the work. MIR. Owens train
ing particularly adapts him for the
special field to which he was appointed.
After graduating from the Indiana state
normal school he taught for several
years in the public schools, and he is
thus thoroughly familiar with the
general conditions which prevail His
musical training was obtained in the
New England Conservatory of Music,
where he was a favorite pupil of the
famous theorist and lecturer, Louis Z.
Elsou. He also spent several years IN
public school work as a supervisor OF
music. He was teacher of music in the
Toledo Manual Training School. Be-
fore coming to the University OF Wis
consin Mr. Owen gave instruction in
the department of so.feggio in the New
England Conservatory of Music. The
successful development of the new de-
partments at the University of Wiscon-
sin has been entirely the result of his
efforts.

BUY CHRISTMAS PRESENTS
EARLY.

The following from the Milwaukee
Journal, applies as well to Wausau buy
ers:
Christmas is less than a month away.
And the newspapers must continue
their line upon line and precept upon
precept concerning Christmas buying.
Because the average buyer of Christ
mas gifts will put off his purchase until
the rush season begins if he be not
warned.
From every point of view early buy
ing is wisdom.
When you go to the store before the
busy time you get a full pick and choice
of the stuff And what is as important
the clerks have plenty of time to wait
on you. Everyone knows what help
to the purchaser an intelligent and will
ing clerk may be.
On the other hand, delay in buying
means that the assortmentis broken.
There is a serious waste of time in get
ting to the counters. There is discom-
fort in elbowing the crowds. And in
many cases there is discomfort after the
purchases are made. You get only a
grab bag sort OF choice with the crowd.
Besides, one should have some consid-
GRAFTON for the statesmen and saleswom-
en-.
Goodness knows they will be tired with
the long strain put upon them. They
airs sure to be overwhelmed with work
in the last days of the rush. And so both
selfishness and sympathy dictate early
buying.
Doubtless you will say these same
things have been said by the newspapers
every year. But they ought to be said.
This has been a wonderfully prosper
Gus year and it is likely that all records
for holiday buying will be broken. If
you would save both yourself and the
holiday workers WEAKNESS of flesh and
spirit, we say it again
Buy your Christmas presents early.
