THE demand for Tanlac has agreea-

Cooper and were aware of the success
his preparation had achieved in other
cities of the country. yet we entertained
no idea that tie medicine would become
SO popular in so short space of time in
Louisville.
Judging from the repeat sales and
the expression of satisfaction from those
who have actually tested Tanlac and who
state that they have been benefited by
the preparation. Tanlac must therefore
be something OF unusual merit.

disorders and catarrh many years. My
condition became so serious that l lost
my appetite, foods of solid nature al

MY catarrh also became worse, and

might incline toward farming. TIL ese
well intentioned efforts are accomplish
ing an immense amount of good, but
they fail to stem the tide of migration.
And why1 1t is not because they do
not take into conderation the prime
cause for discomfort on the part of the
young people of the country? Do you
suppose that intensive farming will
hold a boy upon the farm when he has
once tasted of the attractions of the city
unless you can in soma manner satisfy
his yearnings? Do you imagine that a
perfect knowledge of domestic science
will cause a girl to go into raptures over
the prospect of cooking for a dozen
ravenous farm hands when she learns
that she may have what she considers
an easy time by working in the city
factory and enjoy the movies or dance
in the evening. We fail TO take into
account the desire for play which domi-
rates the life of every boy and girl.
And now for the remedy. There is
not community be it ever so benighted
or so remote. which has not some latent
talent for music. dramatics or other
art. 1t should be the business Of the
teacher to discover this talent and TO
utilize it. The school children should
be taught good repertoire of at
tractive songs, and time permitting
there should be some Instruction in tn g
simple elements OF music. But above
all things the pupils should acquire
an appreciation for The purest aud best
in music commensurate with their
powers OF comprehension A church
choir should be organized. and although
the quality of the singers voices might
please none but their Heavenly Father
There would be the beginning Of must
cal sentiment in that community.
There are few people who do not hearth
i y enjoy play produced by local talent
Such plays which are simple enough
for untrained amature talent should b
given. There should be frequent socia
gatherings at the school house wherl
lively games and Innocent hiliaril.

teachers most OF them with their vocal
mental habits fixed readily master the
scale and learn To sing many simple

teachers in music while they were COM
ing through the public schools, but they
were under the same handicap which
affects most of the country children to-
day-there were no teachers to train
them. What then is the solution to the
problem? We must train the teachers
who are or will be in charge of the rural
schools. A beginning must be made
somewhere TO end the present deplorable
condition. and that is the place to begin.
But where and how shall they be train
ed? There are several normal schools,
state. municipal and private where SER
ious work in the training OF teachers Of
school music is conducted. The pur-
pose of the city normal school is confin-
ed to the training of teachers for service
in its own city schools. We must there

NAL schools for salvation.
In music, as in other subjects. the in
structor may teach more than can be
utilized, thus weakening what is most
essential in his subject, or his teaching
may be SO superficial that his students
will have no definite material for prac-
tical application. II is true that a

nature. One of the most delightful of
all activities is the folk-dance No one
who has once enjoyed the exhilarating
pleasures of the Swedish Trallen or
klappdans or the Russhian Kamarin-
skaia would ever care to indulge in the
questionable movements of the tango
the buuny-hug or the raLtle-snake recoil
II, there is such dance. Country
people are especially fond of folk-dances
and learn them readily. Every effort
should be made 10 meet the social long
ings of the young people of the country
with Viualizing and wholesome re-
creation. Sport, of course, is a splen-
did outlet for the pent-up energies of
the lads and lasses, but we must not
forget that the social Instinct is strong
and sex attraction makes its insistent
demands before the elders of the chill
realize it. 1t is, therefore, the teachers
prerogative and duty TO forestall it by
supplying it with counter attractions
which will properly direct it.
1t is to be regretted that the costly
construction of the various talking ma
chimes makes their possession by rural
schools almost prohibilive. Beyond the
singing by the pupils, there is nothing
which would give the pupils keener
appreciation or more intelligent CON-
preiIension of Emusic than the sound re-
producing machine. 1t has been a
dream of the speaker for several years
that there might be established centers
from which machines and records might
be distributed for loan TO country
schools so that both children and par
/ ents might hear the wonders of the
musical world and might gradually be-
come acquainted with the beautiful
vocal and instrumental gems of which
they are now in dense ignorance. This
plan has been successfully operated
by the University of Wisconsin 1t is
not altogether impossible for some wide
awake energetic rural teachers to pur-
chase one of the cheaper instruments
with limited number of records This
could be accomplished by giving a
series of pay entertainments and by
other means. For the benefit of those
teachers who might be induced TO try
such q plan, the speaker will be glad tc
offer his counsel

their maturity without having had any
training in music are beyond the period
of mastering this subject This idea
is positive delusion and can be easily
refuted. Some years ago the British
government realizing the great need of
improvement in the music of the pub
lie schools, sent urgent appeals to the
teachers throughout the kingdc m to pre-
pare themselves to teach the subject
more fully. But the appeal was met
with indignant protest and with a uni
yersal criticism against the Department
of Education for ever suggesting such a
thing. Then the Government offered
bonus equivalent to an increase in
salary, to all teachers who would thus
qualify. 1t was astonishing in how
short time these pedagogical English
sparrows were transformed into nightin-
gales, and today the singing in the pub
lie schools of England is the envy of all
American teachers.

Music In Rural Schools.
IN Address by Prof. J. G. Koch,
Before the Music Section of
the Kentucky Education
al Association.

I'm a conversation which had with
e of the State Supervisors of rural
hools put this question: To what
ktent is music being taught in the
richly rural schools of the State2
be reply was that the number of
thools receiving such instruction was
b small as TO be negligible. Then |
sked, In how many schools was the
here singing of songs, without any eff
brt at training in music, a regular ac-
svity of the school? Again the reply
las that the number was very small
ind that most of the singing was of an
Inferior quality. There are several rea-
ons for this condition. and while il

lea or Ny Old Kentucky Home. The
speaker has known of such cases. II is
more important for first term students
in the normal school to learn to sing
correctly than to recognize inverted
dominant seventh chords.
On the other hand, in some normal
schools in other States the students are
merely required to sing with the chorus
there being no attempt at individual or
class training. furthermore no effort is
made 10 give the students knowledge
OF the elements of music, of the material
which is used in the grades in Public
School Music. or OF the methods of
teaching this material. Such work con-
dennis itself. Normal students, there
fore. should be carefully trained to meet
the condition which will confront them
should they be required to teach in
rural schools.
According to the report of State De-
partment Of Education for the school
year 1912 10 there were enrolled in the
rural schools of the State 45S, O67 pupils
OF school age, while the cities of the
state enrolled only "a. 129 In other
