HARMONY COURSES
IN LOCAL SCHOOLS
MARK DISTINCTION

Richmond Is one of the few cities in
the United States where harmony is
taught in the musical courses of the
public school, Mr.. Sloane, instructor
in music, having three classes in har
mony which include two sections of
the beginners and one advanced, all
high school pupils.
when Mr.. Earhart started these
classes in harmony eight years ago in
the Richmond high school," said Mr.
Sloane, che was ridiculed by the mu-
sicians and faculties of the colleges
of music all over the country.
"Now the colleges are pointing to
this course introduced by Mr.. Earhart
as practicable and make admiring
comment upon the existence of this
department in our music study here.
Adopts Innovation.
Through reading about Mr.. Ear
harris innovation in a musical maya
zine, l started classes in harmony in
the city in which taught before COM
ing to Richmond. -.
Harmony bears the same relation
to the study of music as grammar to
any language and no one can be a
thorough musician without the study
of harmony. The study of harmony
was originally founded on the compo-
sition Of Bach and Handel and the
book We use in the Richmond schools
is that of the great German harmon.
list, Richter, compiled and simplified
for use by Francis l.. York, director
of the Detroit College of Music"
To illustrate the practical nature of
the classes in harmony Mr. Sloane
stated that young woman of this city
went to Cincinnati to study harmony
and was asked at the institution in
which she went why she did not take
harmony in the Richmond high school
where she could get the instruction

That the community is appreciative
of the professional as we'll as the anna

SINGS COMPOSITION
OF REID At CHURCH

Ernest Reid, known as an amateur
pianist of this city and former stu
dent in the musical department at
Earlham. is a composer of song and
piano music, and for the first time one
of his compositions was heard in pub
lie last Sunday evening when 1t was
sung by Miss Daisy Mote at Grace
church.
Mr. Reid has SO far offered none OF
his songs or instrumental pieces for
publication, preferring to perfect his
musical form. Neither does he expect
to write for popular consumption. as
he wishes his work to appeal to lovers
of more serious music.

COMPOSES SONGS

Professor Sloane Writes
Songs for Musical Compre-

An interesting phase of the music in
struction in the lower grades of the
public schools is the preparation of
songs by Mr.. Sloane for the musical
comprehension of the young pupils,
the compositions being written by Mr..
Sloane himself and copies run off on
the mimiograph
In these Mr.. Sloane seeks to refine
the appreciation of the children by
the Introduction of simple harmonic
chords to accustom the pupils to dis
criminate between the classical and
the popular forms of composition.
For Thanksgiving Mr.. Sloane has
composed set of three songs to make
a series, called THE Invitation" The
Party" and Jack Frost" very charm

The Viola

All through the symphony heard strain
AS sweet and strong and sad birds note
When it has lost it's mate and from it's throat
LAS poured it's heart out in a song of pain
AS though it's longing symboed in a flame
Of vivid color
Or as some white boat
That, sailing silver sea, would float
Into eternal sunsets red and gold.
A sound so linked with melody of strings
It could not be divorced, and yet it sings
AS one alone who, in his solitude,
Knows that Life is all in him to unfold
An inner harmony in his own soul
Which balances the spheres great rhythmic RI

COM INUNDATED.

The writer has read the report of Mr..
Alfred Quick, expert hydraulic engineer,
who was employed by our town officials
to correct the inefficient manner of oper-
ating our Electric Light Plant.
As understand he stated he could
give them pointers that would obvlate
the necessity Of additional motive power
or the purchase of current to tide over
the dry season.
After making lengthy report of the
plant telling US what We have, he then
goes into the water measurement in the
Monocacy river below Frederick to figure
out the square feet of drainage above
the Thurmont Power House Dam, and
the flow of water that should come into
said dam, where if he had taken the same
time he could have constructed "A wier
above the dam and gotten the exact
amount of flow After all his calcnla.
tons, he comes to the conclusion that ths
whole loss of power is caused by three
high points in the pipe line conveying the
water from the dam to the power house,
two of which are slightly above the hy-
drauic grade line when the dam is full
of water, and air collecting in these high
points, causes about one-third of the
power to be lost at low water stages.
The writer of this took the levels and
laid the pipe line from dam to power
house, and in order to prove the mlslead-
ing statement in said report that If he
shall find from actual levels taken that
there is any point in said pipe line higher
than where it comes out of the bottom
of the dam or any place in the pipe line
line, the writer will lowerit free of cost.
The pressure guage in the power house
would have told himif there WAS any loss
of water pressure caused from ar-locks.
When person makes an assertion that
he sees whereby he can remedy certain
defects, that they are secrets he has
learned from his profession, and can only
give them for a stipulated price he should
prove that defects exist before receiving
his stipend,
A waterWhee! is the same as steam
engine if you have no steam you have
no power; if you have no water you have
no power. In order to ascertain whether
your turbine wheel is efficient and giving
the power from water consumed you
should measure the water passing over
the wier in your tail race, and note the
power the wheel is giving, then if you
measure the water going into the dam.
you will then ascertain whether your
power loss is from the wheel, loss of wa
ter, or the want of more water. and will
not take fourteen pages to explain the
cause.

contract should have been made a

The necessity of your action Will
be emphasized some time when your

ply cut in to the H. Il F. plant and

will not cost the town dollar under
