WhV Children Learn
High Tones Better
EXPERIMENT At NORMAL SCHOOL,
SEEMS TO CONTRIBUTE NEW
KNOWLEDGE
FAVORAeLY IMPRESSED

That reason has been found for
the fact that young pupils in music
learn tones better in a high key, even
though they cannot sing them 50 we'll,
seems to be the result OF an investi-
cation made at the Normal school.
In an effort to find a satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION for this, Prof. L. B. McMul.
len, recently conducted an experiment
by taking i've Of the best singers in
the Model school 40 in all, and test
ing their ability to tune high and
low sonometer to the major chord.
AS result, the young people showed
surprising accuracy in the high key,
doing almost as well as the eighth
grade pupils. But in the low key the
superiority of the eighth grade pupils
was decidedly marked, from which it
was concluded that the children natur.
ally hear we'll in the high keys and
that the instruction in music tends
to develope the lower ear.
The results and conclusions were
brought to the attention of DR.. E. B.
kitchener, Of the psychological lab
oratory, Cornell university.
DR.. kitchener, in replying states:
II understand you to say % that the
interval-memory for tones in the mid
die region is better in the higher than
in the lower grades, while in the high
region there is practically no differ.
ence, and (2) that this difference may
possibly be referred to the fact that
the young children have a better dis.
elimination of high than Of low tones
Both observations ara new to me;
and neither is mentioned in either
Meumann's Vorlesungen or in Whip
pies Manual.
Il cannot say, of course, that there
IS nothing on the point in the most re-
cent publications; there is an extra
ordinary rush of publication in this
field, and without special search I can
not speak more definitely. s s. s. 50 $
You made such a beginning as war,
rants you going farther. So far as
know, however, you are on new
ground
This experiment is being carried
farther at the Normal school.

What does this mean?" Humason

what it said, so he packed up a few
belongings and left the house.
Suit for divorce against Humason
was begun in the district court yes
terday afternoon. His wife, Ida HUI

Croxone is the most wonderful rem

poisonous impurities which cause such
troubles. 1t is entirely different from
all other remedies. 1t is not like any,
thing else ever used for the purpose. 1t
acts on the principle of cleaning out
the poisons and removing the cause.
1t soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and Innings, like water in
a sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons from
the blood, and leaves the kidneys and
urinary organs clean, strong. healthy,
and well.
1t matters not how long you have
suffered. how old you are. or what you
have used, the very principle of Crox-
one is such, that it is practically i'm
possible to take it into the human sys-
tenn without results. There is nothing
else on earth like it It starts to work
the minute you take it and relieves you
the first time you use it.
If you suffer with pains in your back,
and sides, or have any signs of kidney
bladder troubles, or rheumatism such
as puffy swellings under the eyes or
in the feet and ankles, if you are nerv-
