MUSIC IN THE SCHOOLS

what percentage of the pupils IN
the grammar grades Of our public
schools can sing an ordinary hymn at
sightY" One hundred and nineteen
schools out Of 43S say that IS per cent
OF their pupils can do this. according
to the United States bureau of educa-
ton.
Convinced of the fundamental inn
portance of music as school subject,
DR.. P. P. Claxton, commissioner Of
education, requested Mr.. Will Earhart,
director Of music in the schools Of
Pittsburgh, Pa, to make a thorough
investigation of music teaching in the
schools of the several states. A bulle-
tin containing the results of Mr. Ear
hart's investigations has just been is
sued. Accordingdto this bulletin about
90 per cent of the schools Of the coun-
try require music and practically all
OF these have the course graded. The
weakness of the present system, in
Mr.. Earhart's view. is that only q
small per cent of the grade teachers
are required to pass an examination
in music. The work in the schools is
done largely through supervisors OF
directors Of music.
Ten per cent of the schools have
pianos; half that number have organs
The order of popularity with the stu
dent in regard to music reverses OK
actly the order that the school author
| ities desire. Students regard muSit
first from the standpoint of apprecfa
tion then history, and finally hAr
lmony Mr., Earhart finds that o4h'
less formal and academic the plan tn
greater the popularity.
In discussing Mr.. Earhart's flnt
ings Commissioner Claxton declares
GOOD music is necessary not only fc
enjoyment and recreation, but also fc
inspiration and for salvation frpl
death in the din and dust Of trade
, and this music should be democrat
in the truest and best sense.
