Community Music
"The man who has no music III
his soul is fit for treason, strata
gem and spoils." This is thousand
times more true of a community
which has not learned to sing i'll
unison. No method has ever been
designed for bringing people together
socially and for equalizing them emo
tionally that is superior to the meth
cd of community singing. If the
children need play the old folks need
recreation, too and singing furnlshes
healthful and uplifting recreation.
The community music leader VINO
will have charge OF this work In the
chautauqua is an expert who Will pc
able to make anyone sing, whether
one has a voice or not. The gen
eral direction of the community mu-
sic work at all the Wisconsin weeks
will be by Professor P. w. Dykema,
of The University of Wisconsin, who
has had great experience in this
work and is Chief of the Bureau OF
Music of the Extension Division.

Where does science and philosophy
begin? Is reason merely highly
developed animal instinct? Wnat IS
reasons highest purpose and chief
achievement? Is matter all? Is mind
all? How can evil Oain, death and
SIM be reconciled with Divine Prov

animals a soul? Do animals form
general abstract ideas.
