! voted to the thing in mind, whether
it be reading or building house.
But there is a great aid to arOus-
ing attention. and generating interest,
n forerunner of both.
1t is FORETHOUGHT.
Forethought is the herald, so to
speak, who clears the way for the
coming of attention and interest. 1t
precedes, of course and prepares for
the reception of the twins.
Suppose, for instance, we are 10 be.
gin the study of our hitherto little
known selves with a view to sclf-im-
provement.
What shall we do?
First, prepare to devote our atten-
ton to the study and become really
interested in the subject.
Before we open the book of a."
let us pause and say to ourselves.
I'VE will devote all of our attention
TO study while we are studying: no
mind wandering; and by attention. we
will become so interested that we shall
do all in our power TO master the
subject"
This is forethought We are pre-
pairing the mind to devote attention.
The pause and declaration set an OBJ
jective and issue friendly challenge
to attention. After a few repetitions
of it, attention responds and does its
best. Interest is arouse and begins
to coach attention from the sidelnes,
then jumps into the game and does
its level best to accomplish the OBJ
jective: both discover in the common
place. the daily familiars, treasures of
which they little dreamed could be
contained in such "Yell-known' OBJ
jects.
Let us try this out-pause and give
a little forethought TO attract our at
tention; then devote it to the thing
in hand, and We won't have to even
think about interest, for it will surely
develop.

Children Learning Classics?
So Must Their Parents

Kansas City, No., April 25.-
Mothers and fathers of Missouri will
not let their children get ahead of
them.
Modern educational methods are
producing knowledge of the
classics in music among the young
sters, such as the older generations
never had.
To offset this advantage, Mrs. Jo-
seph Rodes of Webster Groves. Mo-,
has started a movement to prevent
parents from tagging behind Their
>aildren in musical culture. Mrs.
Rodes is honorary president of the
Missouri Federation of Music Clubs
and in this capacity is organizing
neighborhood music appreciation
circles throughout the state.
Like School.
The circles are composed of the
.,parents of the boys and girls who are
Vbeing taught in their schools to IN
derstand and appreciate grand opera
and classical music.
The circles meet either monthly
or weekly. Their members become
familiar with all the famous opera
selections by means of photograph
records.
The neighborhood circles exchange
records and musical circulating
library thus is kept in operation.
Tests, Held Too.
Occasionally there is a circle test
with prizes for the members who
recognize the largest number of Sc
lections.
Nowadays" points out Mrs.
Rodes, the average school boy or
girl can recognize instantly any
grand opera selection upon hearing
it played. While on the contrary his
mother merely looks blank or says
