THE WORD RADICAL

The use OF the word radical has
OF late become 80 common and oil such
indiscriminate usage that its meaning
Is almost incomprehenslole.
It used to be that radical was
synonymous with an anarchist, 4 de-
structionist, an opponent Of law and
order. To-day. however. radical
may mean one Of several things,
ranging from a Bolshevist to a mau
who differs In opinion with another.
Many men in public life are classi-
fled as radicals. Lcnin IS called a
radical; Trotsky Is called a radical, so
Is LaFollette, Hiram Johnson, Musso-
lini, and others Of more or less promi
uence, depending entirely on the view
point taken. BY referring to a man
Is q radical, It Is inferred that the
man is something different from tho
ordinary run OF humans and does not
think in the same channels as do peo-
pie with common sense.
But the word radical, as a word
only, is greatly misunderstood. Every
man Is radical in so far IS he differs
from any accepted idea. Every new
thought advanced comes from a .radi-
cal brain; every theorist is radical.
whether he be n labor leader or 4
bank president.
There Is nothing obnoxious IN the
word radical. only In It's application.
Its present usage is too general. the-o

NOUS conduct, has turned land pirate
and held up the State for an outrage

MUSIC IN OUR SCHOOLS AS
A COMMUNITY ESSENTIAL
(By F. GEORGE DAMSON)
paper resd at Rotary Meeting


Music Is the oldest of the Fine Arts
but Is the last one to come to its own.
1t is just beginning to receive the at
tention which It is entitled to receive.
When men like Chas. w. Eliot, presi-
dent emeritus of Harvard college, and
Thomas A. Edison, make the following
remarks about music one can readily
see that music is about to take its
proper place in society.
No study in the grade or High
schools has 10 much general education
and cultural value as the study of
music. Theory Immediately becomes
practice. Learning how to do is fol-
lowed by the doing. The practice Of
doing must become a daily habit.
Habit formation compels c0ncentra-
ton. Concentration is that power by
which all the great achievements in
science and art have been accom-
plished. The reading of music nota-
tion requires greater degree of COM
bined speed and accuracy than is
necessary in almost any other voca-
tion.
Music appeals to all normal people
and the majority Of US are normal.
Children then have right to instruc-
tion in music and should be given the
chance to learn how to play on some
instrument and 0he time to learn is
when they still are in the elementary
schools. A child has just as much
right to devote some time IL. the study
which he may enjoy during his leisure
time as he has TO devote the major
portion Of his time in school to mas
tering subjects which have only q
monetary valuation and are used solely
as means Of livelihood.
1t must be conceded that the school
supported by the people is the natural
source Of all instruction and is the

Today parents provide % many time
wasting pleasures for their children
and these tend TO destroy any incen-
tive on their part to work or study
II they can get around il. Then there
are children whose parents cannot af-
ford 70 give them . musical education
and who crave such training. These
conditions exist in every community
and Il il imperative that those child
rem who wish 10 study instrumental
music should have the opportunity.
The students who have few advan-
tages Offered to them as additional ac-
complishments TO their education be-
cause Of insufficient funds 1t home
have reason to be given equal advan-
tage with the more fortunate; and
these advantages should come from
in all subjects is offered to all students
alike at public expense. Under the
free instruction plan, the schools dis
lot tol aI -.
demand for music instruction as they
who otherwise wouldn't be encouraged
to take up the study of music.
If you question a man who has ar
rived mt maturity as to his attitude to-
ward music you will almost always
get this reply: II don't play any in
strument but wish that could, for
there isn't anything 1 enjoy better

study music once when / was young
but ] didn't like TO practice, as I was
too busy playing ball and having n
good time. Now wish that my par
ents had made me stick to it for now
l want to play but am too old to learn"
The large majority of "boys" are
now too busy playing ball to devote
any time to "wearisomc practice" un-
less they are urged to do so by a
strong hand or interests elsewhere. It
is my opinion that the feasibility of
keeping boy "at It" is worthy of con-
sideration. ! do not believe anyone
who has learned to play an instrument
has regretted it in later life. They may
not keep up practice but they never de-
plore their musical training. Parents
are justified in requiring their children
to continue their study and practice Of
music although they may rebel at
having to give up some play.
It is said that American children are
ten years behind the foreign children
