Can carrying water for the elephants
by small boys who want to see the circus
be classed as child labor?"
Should a clown who brings his wife
along as excess baggage and chisels a
place for her in a statue act be paid
as much as a single clown, equally as
funny?
When is a "circus" not a circus at
all, but just another carnival under a
tent?
Can the big-time rail shows with
their ability to pay higher salaries and
wages, operate under the same code
authority with motorized circuses play
ing the tank towns in the short grass"
country?
These and many another perplexing
question were laid before Deputy Ad-
ministrator William Farmsworth of the
competition for the circus industry
opened today in the Ambassador Hotel
Boys Find Champion.
Speaking for the consumer" in the
shape of the Circus Fans Association
Melvin D. Hildreth pleaded for the
sacred rights of the small boy to carry
water for the elephants.
This Is not child labor, as any man
here can tell you," Mr.. Hildreth de-
clared. I'VE should not deprive the
American small boy of the privilege
enjoyed by his father and grandfather
before him.
"The circus was born with the Amer
ican Republic as early as 1898; Bill

joyed the patronage Of Gen. Washing

every city and hamlet in the country
The hearing offered an excellent op-
portunity, Mr.. Hildreth said. for the
circus to shake loose from "barnacles

Importance Of First Les.
sons in Piano

There are certain things which
cannot be skipped in the early les
sons at the piano without appearing
to the enormous disadvantage of the
student In later years." Belle Menus.
director Of the Menus conservatory,
said Wednesday in an interview con-
cerning the musical training of a
child. The fall term at the conserva-
tory opened during the present week.
Miss Menus continued, These
things are certain fundamentals
which, II omitted or not learned cor
rectly at the very beginning, will crop
up constantly In advanced work, caus-
ing the student, II the fault. can be
remedied, loss Of time, much grief
and unnecessary hard work. These
habits OF thought and action ac-
Quired at an early age are so embed
ded IN the subconciouS mind that 1t
should frighten one to think how
lasting Is every impression the little
four or five-year -old child receives"
Stresses Elementary Technique
Miss Menus feels that no teacher
has the right to plan an elementary
system Of technique II he does not
thoroughly understand the demands
Of virtuoso piano technique. The diff
culties which will be encountered in
the playing Of an advanced number
under the watchful eye Of master
must be remembered by the teacher
who first instructs the young pupil in
elementary technique. The use of
the arm, forearm and wrist should
precede the more intricate manipu-
lation Of the fingers, as the use Of
the larger muscles should always pre-
cede the development Of the smaller.
Rhythm and ear training must be
simple and accurate" Miss Menus
went on. The spontaneous but mac

graph music much too complicated
