for gold with which to clothe

are, they have responded to his
urgent appeal
The SacredneSs and the sym
Dol of a small band worn on the
third finger of a woman's left

crisis with which Italian mother

of the "Patria," Italian women
are giving up their one symbol
of marriage and in return re-
ceiving iron rings with the in
scription, November 18th, our

Not only are the native Ital-
ian women sacrificing their
precious gold possessions, but
also all those loyal Italian women
here in Washington. They, too,
realize that eventual starvation
faces the mothers, brothers, ia
thers, sisters and relatives they
left behind and they are doing
something about it.
They, too, are giving up their

will probably receive the iron sym.

Following a prolonged roll of
drums, the violinS divide and sub

playing four different parts, the
second violins two parts, and the

is growing and grumbling which
breaks out with gathering force

After the rage of battle, there

life seems to flicker out with the

DRASTIC STEPS
| PROMISED BY
JAPANESE

TOKYO, Nov. 5 0.N'S0
Warning that japan will take
"positive steps, when they are
needed" war Minister Yoshiyuk
Kawashima today gave bitter ex'
preston to Japan's ire over de-
velopmentS indicating Chinese CO.
operation with Britain and Soviet
Russia.
Leaving for the annual Japa-
nese military maneuvers, the war
minister told International News
Service.
Japan is skeptical Of the aims
and utility of financial reforma-
tion in China"
He said naturalization Of sill.
yer and establishing Of managed
currency in China were additional
evidences of the Marking govern
ment's "lack Of sincerity"
China, he said, appears never
to have had any intention to CO.
operate with Japan" so Japan
will be ready to take forceful
action If necessary.
Coincident with a Moscow an.
nouncement that the SovietS had
protested to Japan for the second
time, in a note saying that Japan
cannot dodge responsibility for
Manchukuo-Soviet border clashes,
War Minister KawaShirna said:
'The Soviet program in China
is a formidable one, and the jap
anese army regards Communist
activities there as important"
Financial quarters here had
hoped that China, in financial dis.
tress, would turn to Japan for aid.
Instead, it was angrily charged,
the advice of Britain had been
accepted and China went off the
silver standard.
It was reported here that Brit.
ain had loaned the Marking gov.
ernment so million dollars for ex.
change stabiliZation, in return for
which Britain received a virtual
monopoly over Chinese railroads.

Can an adult beginner make
satisfactory headway in learning
to play a musical instrument such
as the piano? Mr.. John NJ. vii
liamS, well-known musical educa
tor, who is giving a series of lee
lures on piano pedagogy each
morning at $50 o'clock at the
Kilt Studio, claims that increas
ing numbers of adults throughout
the country are starting as be
ginnners on the piano and lik
ing it.
Tomorrow morning Mr.. vii
liams will discuss the modern
methods by which thousands OF
adults are taking up the study
of the piano and accomplishing
satisfactory results. The sales
of Mr.. williams instruction book,
First Book for the Adult Begin
ner," have doubled each six
months for several years.
Doubtless most OF these adult
beginners belong to that large
class of people who attempted to
learn the piano when children,
but who through lack Of properly
trained teachers were discouraged
from further efforts. Mr.. Will
liams makes it clear that he does
not consider a teacher properly
trained for teaching beginners
when the would-be teacher has
simply mastered the technique Of
playing the instrument.
If piano teachers, instead Of
coaching with artists to learn to
play another concerto, should go
to any good normal school or
teachers college and learn child

methods, there would be fewer
children giving up the study Of
music at an early age.
Amazing Longevity
Mr.. Williams terms our average
present-day teaching practices as
the result of the old musical
ariStocracy." One must have grad
uated from dear old Leipzig" in
order to be able to impart the
profound knowledge of the piano
forte technique to beginners, &C.
cording to the old musical aris-
tocracy."
Mr.. Williams sees hope for the
future in the introduction of mod.
ern methods of teaching music to
beginners in the young people who
| are training for the profession.
