LOCAL MUSIC TEACHER HON
ORED.
Rare Opportunity For ! Musical
Education.

1t is no longer necessary for par
ents to send their boys or girls away
from Missouri Valley to obtain high
class conservatory training in music
A pupil can now graduate in .
branch Of the Sherwood Music School
Of Chicago, established by Mrs. Guy
R. Smith. in this town, and thus save
all the expense and trouble Of leaving
home. The usual conservatory sub.
jects as Harmony, History, Ear-train
ing, and Interpretation, are taught by
Mrs. Smith, in graded and progres-
sive course, same as used by that
famous school in Chicago.
The course was edited and COM
posed by Leopold Godowsky, probably
the greatest Of all pianists, Joseph
Hoffman, and many other master
minds Of music.
A unique feature is the use Of the
printed text material with special in
structions, SO that the student has be-
fore him in black and white all that
the teacher. under the old way, had to
teach orally.
In other words, everything the
teacher has to say to him e put into
printed form, and when he comes for
his lesson, he is examined h writing.
This insures thoroughness and great
saving in time and money.
The class is now forming, and the
Registrar, who is here for 9 few days.
will be glad to call on you and give
full particulars. Call Mrs. Guy r.
Smith. Adv.

night two men entered this stage bound
for Imperial. TN N,ete 0r0ered out
of the car being Informed that 1T was
a Brawlev stage and not an Imperial
stage but that Imperial stage would
leave Immediately. Ii was three quar-
ters Of an hour later t1at the lmptH-
al stage left and ten people were
waiting to go to Imperial and BraW-
ley.
1t is possible to fill several columns
with the complaints which have been
heard against the stage company.
When a representative Of The Press
endeavored to interview the stage
manager he was very sarcastically
told that if he thought he could run
the stages better to apply for the job
as manager.
The stage company maintains that
it is doing everything possible for the
convenience Of the travelling public
and tha5 it is complying strictly TO
the laws of the railway commission.
The company remains quiet IN re-
gard to the overlooking Of the stage,
and the smoking Of the drivers while
driving the cars, both in strict viola
tion of the ruling of the commission.

Dispute Over Mountain

Tacoma and Seattle, away up in
Washington, and other communities
out in that direction, are having a
wordy wrangle over what is called the
great mountain that towers to the
clouds lust across the river II is
SET down in the geography as Mount
Rainier, but the people of Tacoma call
it Mount Tacoma and now there is n
considerable number of persons in this
country who want il named after the
late Colonel Roosevelt they want II
called Mount Roosevelt.
The name Rainier" was given the
mountain by the Canadians, in honor
Of British admiral Of that name who
sank an American vessel during the
Revolutionary war, Naturally. the
name is not especially popular on this
side Of the border. The Indians
called il Tacoma tribe itself
bore the same name. which means sim.
rly the mountain" The Tacoma In.
dams We're the Mountain Indians"

these qualities will have little trouble
In consulting with the government adj
visers with whom he discusses the
training he desires.
Representatives of the federal board
are busy In the great reconstruction
hospitals, making preliminary investI-
CATIONS of men about to be discharged.
Sometimes 1t proves comparatively
easy to place man In good job;
training isn't always needed. The board
acts as an employment agency 10 n
considerable extent. But It's great task
Is To seek ont the men who have to
be- re-educated, or who, never having
had the opportunity to secure an cdu-
cation can take advantage of this
chance.
No attempt has been made so far
10 place disabled men In special schools
for "rippleS or 10 scgrcgate them in
any way for training or other pur-
poses Experience has shown that such
segregation is harmful and that the
more n disabled man is thrown with
his fellow men who are strong and
healthy, the quicker will be his re-
covery and the more readily will he
absorb training. For this reason use
Is being made Of existing educational
and trade schools throughout the
country,
More than 100000 disabled men have
already sought the assistance of the
federal board Of vocational education.
and new eases come into the central
office In Washington and to the four
teen branch offices at the rate Of
500 day. There are about 6.0OO men
10 take the training. and efforts are
being made to get disabled men to
take training just rs quickly as pos
Slble after they leave the army. When
II Is considered that more than 10000
disabled men left army hospitals be-
fore thny could be told about the
board, the figures of those who have
shown their interest are encouraging.
