Music Hath Charms"
Also Ability To Heal
Soldiers "Sick Souls"

ject. DR.. White added, though he called

ITO discover a specific means for
music to contribute to the individual
need, in specialized cases, would be
the answer to the appeal of the hui
man soul for adequate expression.
IF the sick human soul"-thus he
characterized. sympathetically, his
life problem-"if the sick human
soul can be correlated to this inf1u-

it were-it may prove great safety
valve. That is the need, of escape,
for the poor tortured sick SOUL"
PsychOpathic Examples.
Then he gave some psychopathic
examples. Many he finds who take
definite bodily positions, with much
tension. And it seems an index to
their thought, there trend. Music
matches their attention, changes the
attitude.
Then why" questioned Dr. White,
of his own illustration, IF music can
cause a relaxation, a change in
posture, cannot it go further and sup
ply a specific personal need?
For all this healing must be done
by the individual himself His case
is put up to him! His difficulty is
that he is unable to give expression
to his own personal emotion. Hence,
getting into his consciousness, by
any means
Its therapeutic future depends on
some definite program yet to be
evolved. But" and there DR.. White
left the question open to the future.

that keeps them out of touch with
the impulses of their fellow-men."
Two Sisters Worked Theory.
Music as a healing agent has been
definitely worked out by two sisters,
the late Eva Augusta Vescelius, and
Louise Vescelius-Sheldon who is car
rying on the work to which her sis
ter devoted her life.
In an article in Musical America,
Mrs. Sheldon has put forth many
facts, as observed in the healing Of
their patients. 'Music attuned to the
patients pulse beat" she finds. lis a
life-reneWeT."
Music-therapy has passed beyond
the stage OF ridicule where one was
admonished to take a pill of Wag-
ner and two spoonfuls Of Chopin
These sisters praCticed with the COM
mendation of prominent physicians
of New York city.
But in their experiments the sis
tiers Nescelius discovered, through a
pulse chart, how different music act
ed differently on the patients. The
quickening was greatest through an
"Oberon Fantasia" of Weber, and a
List Hungarian Rhapsodie." The
repose was shown in Schumanns
"Traumerei" and Chopin "Noc-
turne."

by some well-meaning musicians, but
the music they rendered suggested

but the fact most responsible for the

the Atlantans have been dealing out

all buddles and pals. They are all

They have set their heads on this one
