Teachers and Raise Stand
ard of Music

! The Tuesday Musical club of the Sa-
lem district is the name of the organ
ization of music teachers and lovers of
music in the city of Salem that has
been completed this week. The organi-
zation is affiliated with the State Mus
( ic Teacher s association, which has its
headquarters in Portland, and of which
John Claire Montieth is president. The
club will meet on the second and fourth
Tuesdays of each month.
Miss Minnetta Magers vice president
of the organization that was attempted
last year, was elected president at the
first meeting held last Tuesday. Miss
Elma Weller vice president, Bertha
Junk Darby recording secretary, Miss
Lucille Barton corresponding secretary,
and Miss Joy Turner treasurer. These
will hold office until the last meeting
in October, when the annual election
will be held.
The object of the organization is to
unite the music teachers of the city, to
advance the cause of music, to raise
the standard of the music teaching pro-
fesson in the state, and to make every
leffort to improve the local musical sit
uation.
Members are designated as active
and associate. To be eligible for active
membership, the person must be active
ly engaged in teaching music, must
have taught some time or other, and
must be a director of some musical or
ganization, or leader of a chorus or

possible in this respect be secured.
Committees Named
The committee on constitution and
bylaws consists of the following: Miss
Elma Weller, chairman; Mrs. w. A.
Denton, Miss Lucille Barton, with Miss
Mayors an ex-officio member. The COM
mittee met Wednesday morning and

sociation met Wednesday evening and

tion has been sent in to the state asso
citation for approval.
The following committees will be
appointed at the first meeting in Octo-
Der: membership, program, publicity,
arrangement, business, and auditing.
The appointments will be made at that
time on account of the fact that large
number of musicians are out of the
city now.
The association S meetings will be

cussion and musical program. Mrs. Vera
Schaupp Frickey will have charge of
the first program and Miss Elma Well

company, and from the various com

A talk on the various ways of busin-

course on newspaper advertising was
especially good, Mr.. Farley saying that
where one man advertises too much,
there are ten men who do not advertise
enough.
Following the talk was a three-reel
picture of out-of-d&te VS.. up-to-date
methods in conducting business. The
setting of the pictures was agrocery

was losing many customers from old
fashioned methods, a National Cash
