iation which is distinctly emotional.
Experience is the best teacher, be-
cause she really makes us study. The
first law of pedagogy Is that there Is
no learning without mental activity on
the part of the pupil. Ordinary teach
ers usually fail to arouse the mind to
self-activity, whereas experience has a
way of keeping US awake and inter-
ested.
The lessons we learn through expert
ence are extremely practical. They are
as practical as bread and taxes.
The one great disadvantage of rely
ing wholly on experience as q teacher
Is that many Of the lessons learned viii
do US no good. In the old days OF pub

 Thero certainly will be no more land than there Is right now. The increase in population will crowd more of 1t.

gram of variety and interest. The
special Educational Number" which
he compiled, will be featured this year

committees for whom the band will
play. Mr.. Stannard also will deliver
several addresses upon Latin American
music before the leading music clubs
of the 56 cities which the Army Band

ment in first-class condition. With
the enthusiastic support of Lieut. Col

Corps, he has been able to supply the
band with an entire set of new in
strumentS. Handsome banners for the
marimba and the chimes will enhance
the stage setting. He recently obtained
a vibraphone and several unique mu-
Sical instruments from South America.
The percussion instruments of the

In addition to its regular concert
schedule. the band prepares 10 to IS
Latin American selections for dlstrlbu-
ton 70 bands of the Regular Army
and National Guard every three
In this work the Army Band
feels that it is providing a service OF
real worth for the other bands of the
establishment of the United
States, as it could not be duplicated
elsewhere except at prohibitive cost.
In connection with this service the
Army Band maintains a staff of COM
petent arrangers, who are constantly
at work providing new features for their
and for distribution.
Upon completion of the tour No
vember 18 the Army Band will enter
into its Winter season in Washington

dent Wilson, Senorita Elodia attended
the public schools Of the District OF
Columbia.
In 1919, on the family's return tc
Cuba, this youngest member of the
family seriously took up the study oi
music under the noted maestro Nestor
de Ia Tore of Spanish and italian
opera fame. In the past two years
this singer has had number of ap-
pearances both in concert and oratoric
in the "Teatro Naciona" in Havana
Her first concert appearance in the Ma
tional Capital is awaited as an event OF
great musical interest.
Last Winter in Havana Senorita
Martin -Rivero sang one Of the leading
solo parts in THE Navidad" (The Ma

noted composers, Eduardo Sanchez de
Fuentes, the libretto of which was
written by Nestor de Ia Tore. In this

siderably in Havana, where she Is an
artist of high standing. In addition

Martin-Rivero will sing this song fol
