OUR PROGR ESS In MUSIC
RAPID ADVANCE MADE.
WOmen'S Organizations DeSerre
Greater Portion of Credit.
By HENRY w. SAVAGE.

10 the wise and energetic efforts of the
wOmens organizations of this country should
be attributed, in my opinion. the lions share
of the credit for our rapid advancement must
cally. Clubs and societies such as those in st
Paul Dallas Minneapolis and many other dis
tant cities have worked To such excellent pur-
pose that to-day one finds as genuine and COM
plete an appreciation of the higher forms of
music three thousand miles from the Atlantic
seaboard as in New York or Boston.
The familiar reprOach that we are Il hope
lessly material people no longer has the shadow
of truth, and it is particularly in music that
we have, as Il nation, gained. Until few
years ago there was at least some excuse for
the belief that in America grand opera is genu-
inely Ikea by only few and cOmprehended
by less; that symphonies are understood by
mere isolated grOups-alSo that New York and
Boston are the sole centres for even So slight
an appreciation.
Now, however, Philadelphia Pittsburg, Chi
cagO, Cincinnati, Minneapolis, New Orleans,
San Francisco and dozen other cities sup
port generously symphony "rchestras. grand
opera and festivals or some either of the higher
forms of music, while thle is not il town of
consequence that will not respond readily to
any worthy musical enterprise.
cOuntry-w wide campaign of education and
cultivation has been carried OH with admirable

EDUCATION In JAPAN
GERMAN SYSTEM USED.
Craze Problems of Morality and
Religion Cause 4nriety.
by MasuJiro Honda. former professor In Normal
schools at Toxic.

As Japan entered into the comfy of nations
through the sponsorship Of the United States
SO her first attempt at organizing national
system of education some forty years ago was
patterned after the American model. Amer
lean teachers and advisers were engaged and
Japanese students Of both sexes were sent
10 this country. The next step taken was to
introduce some of the most logically mapped
out schemes of the educational legislation Of
France which was followed, in turn, by care
full study and gradual adaptation of German
theories and methods. OF recent years some
teachers and thinkers of Japan have been cry
ing for the need of learning more from England
in the formation OF character of the rising gen
Grafton
As far as the outward forms and legal pro
visions are concerned, our national system Of
education is weIl-nigh complete. Ninety-six per
cent OF the children OF school age go to school
without any need OF attendance officers Six
years of primary education is compulsory, be-
ginning at the age Of six. For this instruction
only small fees are levied. As soon as our eco
nomic conditions allow, we must extend this
compulsory education to a longer period Schools
for secondary education are amply provided for
