 It is quite safe to say that Madam sembrich's appearance at the Mont gomery Theatre on April 2, will be in all respects the most important must- cal event that the year will offer.
 Tn this connehtion it Is interesting to read what Alfred Bruneau wrote after hearing the great prima donna in Paris.

She was inconn- parable and she recalled to me the sweetest souvenir of the glorious times of the Theatre Italien, when the greatest stars were shining. An, Mad anne, am one Of the oldest musical critics in France, and come to tell you, with the greatest sincerity, that in the whole of my life I never felt 8 greater pleasure and more complete admiration than did last night. You are a genuine wonder. Madame, you are enchanting. but you know all this by the enthusiastic reception that the public gave you so unanimously.

 As usual there are plenty of articles on child education in the magazines, but, thank heaven. some of them are becoming sensible.
 A public school teacher says there is no such quality as laziness in scholar. There may be lack of inter- est or hereditary difficulty In learn ing certain subjects. Thus the son of practical parents will scorn poetry and take to" arithmetic or mechanical studies, while another boy whose par ents are fond of literature win take to composition and shirk his algebra and chemistry. But every child is interested in something The point is to find out how he can be interested in what you want him to learn.
 Give him reasons for learning how to spell Show him the use of 1t, and he will want to learn." says this wise teacher. Point out to him the prac- tical uses of algebra and geometry ln- stead of letting him think they are fiendish books invented for his dis comfort"
 That's the right Ideal
