ton Of STRIPPING youth Of fifteen In
the town Of cambridge, few miles
away. 1t was big day for the boy. 1t
was also big day for the circus. al
though that was not proven for quite
few years.
Clyde Beatty never went back to
cambridge. He got a job as a cage
boy for the polar bear act. He was
pretty small. but there was something
in his eye, and they took him.

Two years later Clyde was working
his own act-not with polar bears. but
with the great cats who would kill
man with a single bite and do it will

Over the years Clyde and his cats
were to reach the heights - heights
from which they have not yet de-

good for a candy girl. Combined with
her natural flair for dancing inner
tied from Russian ancestors, 1t got
her into the circus ballet.
Harriet Gets Up in World.
From the ballet it wasn't much of
jump-fguratively speaking-to the
flying trapeze, and Harriet accom-
plished 1t, quantity enough, with the
greatest Of ease.
And then she fell. No, not from the
trapeze (although she did that, too,
once). She fell for the dapper little
man who looked the bold, bad lions In
the eye and made them wilt.
Mr.. Beatty looked the petite aerial
artist in the eye-and HE Wilted. The
little giant tuhose leer could turn jungle

which anything is drab. Teaching a
student to interpret from this angle
is the surest way to form an artist.
To know that certain work was
written under the stress of great ex-
altation engendered by certain cir
cumstances or under the dire need
of earning small sum to alleviate
the distress of loved one or at the
command of parsonage who lived
in the midst of pomp and splendor

imagination is stimulated to express

Even the study of rhythm is fasci-
mating, awakening as it does an in
variable response from the whole
human system or the correct valua-
ton of tone which carries as many
colors as are known to man. All
these things are united in music, CIV
ing unending variety, allowing con-
slant discoveries and bringing with
it an enrichment of the heart and
mind that glorifies an entire life

from this point of view will bring
the reward of artistry and bring also,
in the material sense, seekers at the
fount which supplies the best and

THIS may seem harsh and too ex-

tend to follow music professionally,
but when one considers that one has
to do with the most beautiful art
the world possesses the striving for
such an end is the least that one
should entertain. There is nothing

creation of great minds and souls
who have fused its many elements
into a perfect whole for the dual
purpose of spiritual benefit and es-
thetic refinement. This glorious art
Is what parents and teachers desire
community.
Unfortunately there are many pitt
full elements connected with the study
of music. There is the unfit teacher
who, not possessing adequate knowl-
edge, nevertheless relies on music as
the only means of livelihood and re-
sorts to flattery and display to hold
his pupils. There are the unedu-
Gated parents who delight in the triv-
'ialities their offspring perform with
such dash and who find the more
serious music too tiresome to enjoy,
and then there is the great bugbear
Of students, the hours of monotonous
practice that seem to lead to nowhere
With a little forethought, the rou-
tine of music learning can be made
most interesting. Many musicians
have spent years at their instru-
ments without once having opened a
book regarding music or composers.

not in many moons has a story ap-
