THE VALUE OF MUSIC IN THE

(Mrs. r. X. TraWick)
The educators of this country tell us
that music is valuable adjunct to the
school curriculum. Indeed. few among
those who should be most interested
in the advancement of our schools.
realize with what excellent results mu-
sic may be correlated with other
studies, especially in the primary
grades. Tie child mind seizes and re-
tains an impression much more read
lily than the adult. and so, if one is to
learn music, he should be taught the
rudiments in the first years. just as
the foundation of any subject IS
started.
What will refresh the tired little
mind more quickly on a dreamy Octo-
Der day, than bright song about the
