FRECND WOULD STANDARDILE
MTSICEiNS

John c. Freund, editor of Musical
America. who will deliver his address
on THE Musical independence of the
United States" under the auspices OF
Augustana conservatory in the college
chapel on the evening of May % has
been travelling through the country for
the past three years arousing interest
in matters affecting musical conditions
in America.
He has appeared before the leading
musical societies in New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore. Washington, At
lanta. Nashville. Cincinnati, Columbus
Toledo. Cleveland, Wichita, Dallas
Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio
New Orleans, Hartford and other cities
prosecuting his propaganda for the
recognition of the American music
teacher, composer and performer.
This propaganda has had at least
two pronounced effects. 1t had led to
a general movement among music
teachers associations TO standardiz
and regulate through legislative action
their profession, and it has stimulated
a strong demand for the public per
Torrance of compositions by American
musicians.
Mr.. Freund has maintained that the
elimination of the great army of char
latans and incompetents who are do
ing much injury in the musical educa-
tional life of the country today, can be
ultimately attained by the passage of
laws making it obligatory for teach
er of music to register and make
affidavit to facts concerning their right
to give instructions. In other words,
he would standardize this profession
along lines similar to the standardiza-
ton of the legal and medical vocation
Mr.. Freund has been prominent in
the field of musical journalism in this
country for nearly half a century. He
is an Englshman by birth, but came
10 this country in the '70s, publishing
the first musical paper in the English
language to be issued in New Yorl
City.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: / am ~

years old. We had misunderstanding
and although we speak to each other
on the subject that is all. He has been
to nv home several times, but when l
was away. He has told my mother
that he liked me very much. He SEM
me his picture by my slster-ln-laW
and later | met him and he SAID that
if | did not want the picture l could
send it back. He also asked me II l
would give him one of mine, but | re-
fused to give it to him. He does not
go with any other girl that | know OF
except an old school chum. The girl is
very nice to me and has asked me to
her home several times, but | have
never gone. like this boy very much.
Do you think that there is anything
that l can do? Would you invite the
other girl and him over to my home
if you were in my place? Or would
you let things go as they are?
MARION EVELYN.
Since the boy has called at your
home, sent you his picture and asked
for yours, and has failed in all his eff
forts to be friendly, it is now your
place to show that you are willing. Ask
him and the girl to come to your home.
l think you are right in keeping his
picture but not giving him yours.

! I? ALBERTINE.
You brother is wrong. No girl
| should have steady unless she has
| promised to be his wife. But at your
age it would be far better to attend
dances and theatres in the company
of your brother than with any of your
boy friends.

advise me to do? LONELY GIRL.
Not everyone is capable of loving
violently. Since you are one OF the
many people with a passive nature
think you would be safe to marry

ever, you must decide this matter
yourself, because you alone know your
heart.
