seldom been written but have simply been hand
ed down from one generation to another con-
stitute an invaluable link with the past.
In the case of our Indians, however, in great
er degree perhaps than with any other prim-
tive people, is there need for quick work IL the
old songs and ancient music is to be chronicled
for the benefit of future generations who will
know the Indian only from books and pictures.
The Indian music alike to the folk songs of Euro
pean nations, which have been brought to the
fore In recent years, affords most interesting side
lights on the peoples In whose lives 1t has so
long played part and what Is yet more I'M
portant many of the old Indian songs have
historical significance or at least expression to
traditions SO interesting and poetic and beautf-
full that it would be nothing short of a calam-
ity were they to be lost
Aside, however from the fact that the Indians
of North America is vanishing race and that
their music is passing with them there is yet
other incentive to urge energetic work now that
this musical research has been undertaken in
earnest. This extra spur lies In the fact that
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1911-08-24

grinding songs and the songs of inspiration and
encouragement intended to be sung to the war
riors setting out for battle.
It is usually difficult for a listener OF another
race to catch an Indian song owing to the con-
ficting noise due, in great part, to the beating
of the drums There is usually difference ID
time, the drum beats being designed to govern
bodily movements and mark the steps or the
ceremonial dancers, whereas the song voices the
emotion of the appeal The drums may be beaten
in "a time and the song be in "a time or the
beat be In 5-8 time against melody In S-4 time'
or the entire song may be sung to rapid tremolo
beating of the drum. The officials who have been
making study OF Indian music are enthusiastic
over its possibilities They declare that not only
does the field afford rich opportunities for the
study of the growth of musical form, but the
Indian songs themselves offer to the present-day
composer a wealth Of melodic and rhythmic move
ments constituting source OF inspir alton equal
to that which has been supplied by the folk songs
of Europe and vastly more serviceable in the
development Of a distinctive American school"
of music.

DIsFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but q few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back Of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his lit
tie face was disfgured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
The face looked like raw meat. We
tied little bags of cloth over his
hands to prevent him from scratching.
He was very restless at night, his
little face itched.
we consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine OF the
two doctors without any result, we
read Of the Cuticura Remedies, and at
once bought the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the re-
suit, and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every n who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head Of hair which is a pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can
