As Calico is said to have once re-
marked, the world do move. We have
seen mechanical wonders in many re-
CARDS take the place Of old clumsy
methods of accomplishing results, ana
the results accomplished are more ac-
curate and nearer perfect than those
brot about in the old way The device
by which for favorite musical COM
positions are rendered In the most ar
tistic form in the homes of rich and
poor alike was a great advance from
the time when only individual skill
acquired after long and hard study
and practice could furnish the JOY In
an imperfect form The talking ma
chine and the player piano have put
the best musical compositions in the
power Of every music-loying citizen
TO enjoy at his own fireside. and at
the time of his own convenience and
pleasure But now another Veil be
tween us and artistic perfection is
lifted. There are a great many people
who have longing to acquire excel
lence in SINGING. but the cost and in
convenience attached to it in the case
of busy housekecpcrs and wagc-earn-
ers has put it practically out Of the
reach of the Masses but now a new
arrangement puts the coveted boon in
sight Of many who could not reach it
before
The time is ripe for teaching music
by means of the talking machines and
their records The art OF recording
and reproducing sound has been hrot
very near to perfection, and for. years
many ardent students of music have
used the records Of great artists as
inspiration and study OF the best
methods OF singing and instrumental
tion. Supreme masters made the rec
ords-why should not the student
learn from them? In this connection
we look for far-reaching benefits to
follow the announcement of tho Vie
tor record course i'm vocal training 10y
Oscar Saenger This is probably only
the pioneer effort, for other record
makers will doubtless catch the idea
and il will soon be common enough
for ambitious students to get the
major part Of their musical training
thru mechanical means. Unique tho
the idea is, its practicability is appar-
rent, and the fact that instruction in
this novel form Is 10y one of Amer
ica's foremost vocal teachers seems TO
guarantee its worth In fact 1t is not
too much to predict that new era of
American music has been opened
To think that the instruction OF
such a master has been recorded SO
that it is now available wherever the
English language Is spoken is to real
ize that the twentieth century has
given us another miracle Of art and
science. No LONGER will the leader of
the village choir or the soloist have to
go to big city TO either develop her
native genius or to spend a small for
tune The training Of the greatest
New York studio Will now come to
her at her own home and. for frac-
tion Of the cost of the old methods.
