NEGRO CHILDREN WIN MUSIC
aEMORl CONTEST.

Topeka, Kas. Negro Children have
greater taste Tor music than do the
children of White parents in Topeka.
This was shown in the FINAL concert
OF the music memory contest recent
ly ned in the Topeka schools Three
schools attended entirely by Negroes
won the three first places in the con-
test, and school OF nearly all white
children won fourth place.
Throughout the winter the music
supervisors in the public schools ha-
We been giving the children short con-
certs of selections from the best com
posers of the world. After giving the
children the regular music lessons
the teacher would provide phono-
graph or an instrumental or vocal
number
With some regularity during the
winter there have been concerts ARA
nged by local musicians at which the
selections arranged for the contest
were played by different people on
different instruments. AS types OF the
selections in the contest it might be
noted that Handel Beethoven, Saint
>
some of the composers whose music
played prominent parts in the contest.
At the final concert all the 20 num-
bers were played and the teams of
the different schools reported from
memory the name of the selection and
the composer. There had been elimin-
alton contests in the schools until the
five who won in each school were sell
ected as the team from that school.
The purpose of the contest was to
create greater interest in good mus
ic among the children. 1t was felt
that doing this would create an in
creased interest in music amoug their
parents also. Both ends ere accom-
plished, as the fathers and mothers
did take great deal of interest in
the contest and there has been vast
Improvement in the attendance at ey-
cry musical entertainment offered in
the city during the winter.
The fact that the Negro schools
won the first three places in the con
test was not surprise to those who
had studied the musical taste and ira
lining of the people of the city The
result of the concert demonstrated
that the musical training of the white
children generally had been sadly
NEGLECTED, while the contest afforded
the Negroes an opportunity to inn
prove their natural musical inclin-
atoms more rapidly
