Edison GiUes Vie,Ds
 On Musical Reaction

In a recent issue of Musical Amer ica, Thomas A. Edison was inter viewed on the subject of the psychol- ogY of music. His interviewer re- called to him the statement of certain psychologists that colors have proved to possess a definite reaction in the human mind in the case of some phobias, and he was asked whether he believed that music would exert similar influence.
 "'The reactions to tone should be far more certain than to those of color said MT. Edison. because so many people are color blind, whereas far more persons respond to tone. It is the rare person, who cannot be stirred emotionally by music, and actual avoidance of it. In our labo- ratories we have begun to conduct experiments aiming to ascertain the effects of music on the human mind, l but thus far have not come tn defi-
 nite conclusions, although the simi- 1 larity in the results of the eXperi- ments point toward interesting theo- | ries. For instance, of 1S0 works with | which we experimented, we found
 that so per cent of the most popular works were those of which the
 rhythms were more plastic and long ! drawn out; music which seems tC | make a definite emotional appeal
 Of all the works we have had, pos
 sibly the most universally popular has been song issued several years

dressed to Mir. Wagner has been re- ferred to this office for reply.
 With regard to our state second ary certificates the requirements are
 (a) four years of instruction beyond four years high school course. At least 50 units or half of this four years course must be devoted to music, the remaining two years of
 the four-year course may be cleo
 tive in music subjects of liberal arts
 courses. or both The cost of the
 course therefore would depend to a
 certain extent upon what subjects
 one would take in the two years elec- tives. I should say, however. that the approximate cost for the four years course would be $500. In our history classes we are now using as a text book Pratt's History of Music. A suggested course for a fine arts department in the Phoenix high
 school is as follows: (17 credits are required) ! One credit, elocution or dramatics, two years.
 One or two credits, drawing. fine arts. two years.
 1 One credit. psychology and peda- l gogy, one year.
 Four credits. English, four years. l Two credits, history, American and
 ancient, two years.

Phoenix Studios Of Music and Dancing

Two. three or four credits. Latin, French or Italian. two, three or four years.
 One credit, algrehra or commercial arithmetic, one year.
 One credit. typing. one year.
 One credit, music appreciation, chorus or orchestra, one year.
 One credit, aesthetic dancing and physical culture, one year.
 One credit, civic and economies. one year.
 Outside music, four years.
 In speaking of her work, Mrs. Stewart said:
 T want this course to be of really practical value to the music teacher. The musically gifted pupil who wishes to pursue music as a serious study never completes the high school course because music has no adequate place in the high school He must leave it if he wishes to put the time and effort into his chosen pro- fession that are required for pro ficiency and success. and thus lose the advantage of a general high school training. An investigation oi the pupils who study music shows 1 that 54 per cent of those who have studied music give it up during the | high school period, and two-thirds o1 1 those do so because their work is toe l heavy for them to keep up both. Prob ably no subject taught in our public | schools has greater practical ant cultural value than music, when i is well taught, hence it is quite nee essary that some system of curri culum and credit be established

LUCK IN WATCHING CROCODILE.

Temple Manning in the Cleveland
 Plain Dealer.
 Undoubtedly handed down for thousand of years. the belief in the divinity of the crocodile is still in Egypt Particularly is tn, crocodile reverenced by the mothers of babes
 Among the very first things the Egyptian baby is told tu do is to watch for a crocodile, and whenever he sees one. to stare at it as long as it can be seen in the turgid waters of the Nile or other streams. Every moment the crocodile is in view baby must keep his eyes intently fixed on him. Not once is the watchful gaze to be relaxed. For the Egyptians still believe that the crocodile brings good luck and the more crocOdiles seen, the more good luck to the one who sees them.
 Indeed. so deep is the behef-in the good luck the crocodile bestows that mother watches her baby eagerly to see whether or not he of his own accord will stare at the first crocodile from the instant he appears. the mother rejoices. for she is sure that baby has an suspicious start in life

It is possible that this strange su- perstition had it's birth in the very real danger the crOcodiles present at every ford. and even where the water bearers dip heir containers full at the rivers edge. To watch for them was necessity then. and to be the first to see a crocodile was thus ac- counted good fortune.
 Now everyone in Egypt knows that to look upon the ugly face of a croco- dile is a sure cure for illness. particu larIy sickness in a chnd The very sight of crocodile is believed to in crease the appetite of an ailing babe.

During the recent concert tour of the Zoellner Quartet throughout the East and middle states, Frederick Clint, a young violinist of California, was a member of the quartet, taking the place of Amandus Zoellner who was unable to go on the tour.
 The above note is of interest be- cause of the fact that the young man had received his entire musical train ing from Robert Saunders. head of the violin department of the Arizona School of Music, before going to the quartet.
