General Crowder told
the committee the addi-
tional 125, 90 will be need
ed to fill up vacancies In

When so many books on singing seem

lar method or school, IL IS a relief to
notice a work which justifes its title
and offers practical suggestions instead
of theoretical discussions. Mr.. Cookies
volume, while not free from ideas that
BY many readers may be labelled heret-
ical, is primarily a book of common
sense, Of sound advice, valuable TO both
amount Of material is condensed within
It's space. The group of exercises for
the development % the singers ply
sique is likely TO lessen much needless
strain and waste of energy. In the
chapter on breathing the author omits
anatomical and physiological details
that are likely 20 bewilder the unini-
tiated. His Vocal Development" en-
phasizes the need OF the singers

she can attempt 10 interpret the must

devoted to diction and Interpretation
shows better than any other chapter
the authors ripe knowledge and his
thoroughness. The stu lent who will
carefully follow MIR. Cookies counsel
and conscientiously use The selections
from British authors in the manner he
directs will acquire one of the essential
qualities upon which the success Of the
vocal artist depends insight into the
work he attempts % interpret.
