EDUCATIONAL DIRECTOR CUM
NINGHAM TALKS TO BOYS OF
CLASSICAL AND POPULAR
MUSIC.

The older night school boys of the
7. NJ. c. A. held a term-end sociable
at the institution last night In which
they heard a humorous talk by Edu-
catfonal Director w. P. Cunningham
upon the difference between classical
and ragtime music.
The lecture was illustrated" by
moving pictures" That is, Herman
Wilheimi worked graphophone
loaned by the Reynalds Music House
with records to cover the subject.
Mr.. Cunningham told them that the
ragtime music is founded upon the old
tom-tom beatings which are supposed
to have featured the feasts and
funerals of savage negroes in Africa,
while the classics are inspired by the
music of the old Greek civilization.
Stories and cocoa and doughnuts
luncheon featured the session.

carefully" she said, and find that
every fifth man in our army is suffer
ing from some disease which can be
attributed TO the adjustment of the
canteen. No other country in the civil
lized world can equal this rate.
Spread of Disease.
TN America she declared, nearly
20 per cent of the soldiers are suffer :
ing from loathsome disease, due di-
rectiy to the fact that they have no
canteen to patronize. where they can
purchase beer inside the military res
ervations. Instead, the men in the
army are compelled TO visit the dives
and brotheIs outside the army posts"
Attempts have been made in the
past to restore the canteen, but they
have failed. The question has been
debated by both it's friends and OPP
ponents on the floor of the house
Those opposing the canteen have ar
gued that it makes for drunkenness in
the army, that 1t keeps out of the
army some Of the best young men,
and that the moral effect produced by
Uncle Sans selling liquor to the SOL
diers is bad. These arguments inva-
riably have won when the matter has
been put to vote.
