Ayers Public School
Children In Need
of Music

In all Vermont there are only
six rural schoolhouses consid-
cred satisfactory in equipment,
according to a report made by
Mrs. Dorothy Garfield Fisher,
of Arlington, a member Of the
State board of education, to the
State Federation of Women's
Clubs.
Describing the results Of a
survey of rural schools by the
State board, Mrs. Fisher, who
is widely known as a novelist,
said that none Of the 1,100
rural school houses could be
considered to meet a complete
standard of efficiency.
She said the State department
of education estimated that an
average of $3.50 a school would
bring every rural schoolhouse to
a good condition Of material ef-
ficiency. The needs, she said,
included books, comfortable fur
nishings and something to bring
music to the children.

washington is overrun with per-

public and grow fat on It." said
Rudolphe de Zapp, president Of the
Washington Salon and United Arts
Society and principal Of its French
school, in reply to the question as
to whether those who profess to
teach music should not be first

ported movement on foot In New
York to compel teachers OF music
to demonstrate their ability before
competent authority and obtain
a license before being permitted to
open shop said Mr.. de zapp. This
is being done to rid the public OF
takers and also to protect them
from wasting money on them"
Music, according to Mr.. de Zapp,
will never attain its n"oper place
among the arts in = rntry as
long as incompetent lers are
permitted to ply, the de. The
great value Of music IA. life Is too
well known and understood and its
influence as an educational factor
has again and again been dwelled
upon by President Harding and
other leaders of men and the privi-
Iege of teaching the art should
therefore be entrusted only to those
who have made a thorough and
profound study of 1t.
"Only too often young students
are permitted by their teachers to
appear In public" said Mr.. de Zapp.
"only to embarrass their patrons
and the public in general with their
utter, lack Of sometimes even the
rudimentary principles Of the art
of music. The poor student is
not so much to blame for this state
of affairs as his unscrupulous
teacher whose sole purpose II seems
TO be to extract money from his in
nocent student victims. Teachers
of this kind tell their students all
sorts Of tales about their wonder
full talent. and as rule, the
students believe what their teachers
tell them. We have had evidence
of this sort at some OF our soiree
entertainments of the washington
Salon and United Arts Society. Let
music be taught by competent and
duly authorised teachers and the
day of good music will have ar.
rived as well as the death OF all
errotic and erratic music. such as
Jazz and other unhealthy syncopa-
tions." ..-r -

Ernest Schelling Discovers
Startling New Evidences Of
Invisible Forces.

With the current talk Of ectoplasn
and many other manifestations Of in
visible forces, II Is not surprising tc
learn that Ernest Schelling, com
poser-pianist. has discovered that
each audience he has ever played
Tor has sent forth different vibra'
tiona which have affected the mood
and effectiveness of his playing
Comparing notes, he finds the same
thing Is true Of every other musical
performer Of note.
Fortunately" Mr.. Schelling says,
IN Musical America, most OF my
audiences have sent forth vibra
tions which have stimplated me and
made II easy for me~to give OF my
best. But every now and then a
public performer Is bound to come
across a congregation of people
persons who, each and individually,
have totally. divergent moods-yet
who alta specific gathering, so con.
cur in their mental attitude, before
even a note Is played. that they build
up either a great barrier between
themselves and the artist, or else
create q force which makes 1t in.
credibly easy and delightful for the
performer to give of himself.
"The performers problem" Mr..
ScheIling continued, els, of course,
to overcome any adverse mental atti-
tude on the part of his listeners. His
mind controi must be stronger than
the collective mind control Of sew
eral thousand people. I have done
this time and again. but how II is
accomplished I couldn't tell to save
my soul. II is something that is in
stinctive to an experienced pianist,
violinist, singer or actor.
"This collective attitude Of IN"
audience has nothing to do with
how each individual person in ~.
auditorium regards the art of the
musician. I have known Of audiences
in small towns where every one In
varfably turns out to hear a herald.
ed musician, to vary completely on
different occasions, although the per.
sonrel was always the same.
For instance, during one- of nv
engagements in a small Middle Wes'
town, had to battle nightly to
overcome the audiences mood Of
apathy. But I won, and after the
second number had been played, the
auditorium was with me completely.
A few weeks later I came 70 the
same town for a return engagement,
and the minute I reached the plut-

Trotzly's Red Army, the buga-

huge military establishment. Is q

Organized for the purpose Of
thrusting communism down the
threats Of the bourgeois nations
of the world. the Soviet legions, ac-
cording to American experts, have
not even been able to preserve the
old Russian empire from partial
disintegration and have been really
effective only in the well-known
role Of aweing the Russian peasant.
Soviet leaders have proved them
selves thoroughgoing adherents Of
the doctrine of fear, It is pointed
out. In advance OF every over

the so-called capitalistic chan
