Miss Ada Bicking Aids in
Drafting Program
for Federation.
Times Spccial

tMfS NpCctdt
NEW YORK, March 31.-Miss
Ada Bicking, Arthur Jordan Con-
servatory of Music director. assist
ed in drafting the program designed
to revive the old-fashioned singing
school, which is being encouraged
before the 1900 member units of the
National Federation of Music Clubs
in session here.
The three fold program has been
issued by the department of educa-
ton, of which Mrs w. Carruth
Jones, Chicago. is chairman. As
sisting Miss Bicking in arranging
the program was Mrs D. G. Chaffee.
Shelbyville, Ill, rural school music
chairman.
The program calls for systematic
campaign to promote greater at
tention to music in all educational
institutions and the Inauguration of
a wider range of musical activities
in less populated sections beyond
the reach of concerts and operas.
Projects Are Listed
Among major projects which the
music clubs are asked to promote, in
addition to the singing school, are
rural music clinics in which trained
musicians are to test qualifications
of local musicians; sponsorship of
music memory, hymn singing and
playing contests and rural music fes-
rivals; purchase of monograph rec
ords for music teaching where other
facilities are not available, and as
sistance in financing itinerant school
music supervisors so each rural
school may have some professional
instruction.
Appointment of state supervisors
of music, organization of orchestras
or choruses among secondary school
graduates who are performing musi-
clans but who are not attending
college, and the creation of a Sing
ing repertoire" in each community
by sponsoring movements to select
a song of the week" or "song of
the month";" is asked by the feder-
alton.
Miss Bicking today urged that reg
ular club programs include papers
dealing with these subjects, and
asked that the clubs work for the in
clusion of a music requirement in
the curricula of schools training
students to become principals, SUI
perintendents and teachers.
