Music Benefits the Sick

In the Berlin charity hospital. on
every Sunday, in the afternoon, con-
certs are given for the benefit Of the
patients. The good effects of the music
are said to be extraordinary. The
British Medical Journal recalls that
st. Cecilia guild was founded in Lon
don some Is years ago on the initiative
of the late Rev. Frederick Kill Har-
ford. then minor canon of Westmin-
ster. The movement was supported by
some prominent persons, among whom
was Sir Andrew Clark. and its efforts
In few hospitals and workhouse in
firmaries were watched with q GER
tain amount of languid interest by a
few members of the medical profession.
But the enterprise came to nothing
Our medical contemporary thinks it
q pity that the st. Cecilia guild was al
lowed to die, and says 1t might be
worth while applying the experimental
method to the determination of the ef-
fects of music on the circulation and
on the nervous system. and thus indi-
rectly on other functions of the body
In a more serious and systematic way
than has yet been done.
