A Word 10 Parents.

Landon Conservatory pupils are
never given pieces that are impossi-
bic for them to play as rapidly as an
artistic tempo demands and the class
of music given is from the stdld lrds
and classics and II is as delightful
years hence as now. What TN y learn
has permanent value and every piece
develops taste and solid musician
ship.
The weekly class work of the Ian.
don Conservatory gives the indispen-
sible experience I'm playing before
others and furnishes an inspiration
for bringing out the best possible ef-
focts from every pie.r learned, for
the pupil knows that his work Is to
pass public criticism.
The teachers OF Landau COnserva-
tory from childhood have studied with
masters, teachers who were acquaint
cd with all that Is best I'm the world
of musical composition. This with
their own experience gives them the
knowledge that enables them to place
before their pupils the most desirable
music known. Tuition, work, study
and opportunity all go for acquiring
the best that is known in the world
Of music.
A pupil of Landon Conservatory
gets the best of instruction on the
best qualities OF music, all jud ;ed
/ from the higher standpoints. Every
/ exercise, etude and piece Is given for
| a clearly defined purpose OF bringing
up the executive and Interpretive abil-
| tiles Of the pupil TO the point of arts
| tic finish and their rhythmical and
| emotional faculties are developed TO
the utmost that their performing may
| have the heart reaching power that Is
| heard in the performance of an art
| list.
The kind Of music given to pupils

! tory grows in interest and delight as
