DOWN MccoNNEELsVILLE WAY.

Thanks to Supervisor Andy ParrOtt
and the state highway commission, the
road between Iurkyiilc and McCon-
ncllsvllc is in the best condition that it
has known in many. many years. There
arc one or two rough PAGES from
which the kinks arc to be knocked
within the next few days. but taken as
whole it is in fine shape. The rough
est place on the road from the county
courthouse to McConnellSvillc, is be-
tween the end Of the asphalt paving IN
yorkvillc at the garage of j. II. CAR
roll to the overhead bridge. Maybe
that will be fixed some day.
Peoplc down AIcConncllSvil!e way
say that the crop prospect is fine and
first observation leaves the same i'm
preston Cotton is growing rapidly
and looks big and healthy, while the
fields arc pretty clciln of grass. Corn
is also coming along. One Of the finest
pieces of corn between the two towns
is IL four-acre field just in front Of the
home Of Magistrate Crawford.
Since the south road has been re-
paired, it promises to hccOme quite an
automobile road and the temptation to
20 ton fast is 50 great that Squire
Crawford may find it necessary to
check up on the speedsters. There
were many automobiles on the read
Sunday afternoon and there were very
few drivers who appeared to be aware
that Il state statute prohibits travelling
on the public highways at a rate cX-
cccding twenty-five miles an hour.
The understanding is that the road
between McConnellsville and Chester
is about as good as that between York
vile and McConncllsvillc. However, 1t
is stated that there is considerable
work TO be done yet OIL both ends.

Music Notes
By Mildred Bryant Jones

Musicians in general will agree that
there is a definite and pressing need for
more thorough training and preparation
on the part of the teacher OF music.
There are many poorly trained and
equipped teachers of music loose III the
land and they are menace to the stu
dent whose hard lot it is 30 fall into
their hands. The time has passed when
a person who can play or sing in a
brilliant manner needs that power as his
only requisite for teaching. Teachers
OF music need lust as careful and OK
tehsive training to teach as teachers in
any other department OF art Indeed.
their training should be more exacting
in its requirements than that for many
other forms OF teaching, as music IS
one OF the highest and most helpful OF
all arts. Ii is not sufficient either that
natural ear and inclination Tor music
be the sum OF the teachers stock III
trade. He should be taught how to
teach what he knows but first il must
be definitely ascertained that he really
does know. 1t IS deplorablc that persons
oil real talent often spend valuable time
and energy studying with teachers who
arc not properly equipped Tor their
work. There IS an ever-incrcasing num-
Der OF those students, who, after losing
months or years in work with such
teachers, arc realizing that something is
radically wrong with the type OF instruc-
ton given and that they have been
cheated not only in financial way but
in the matter OF that which is far more
valuable than money-namely, Time
The teaching profession must arouse
itself and make the appeal to all who
give instruction in music that they fit
themselves for the work in hand and
that, after being prepared. they eoncen-
tiously perform their duties and give
forth the best instruction and the great
est possible amount OF il.
The Opera School started by Mr.
James Mundy is doing excellent work;
Mr. Mundy is the pioneer in this work
among us and deserves great common
dation for opening this field OF musical
endeayor His chorus OF probably one
hundred and fifty voices is getting
splendid training and they are respond
ing with remarkable work Their team
work is admirable and their attention
to the details OF absolute correctness
in the matter OF notes. good attack and
