That's why I've asked you to

ed, but also because il affords the
largest opportunities for co-opera-
ton.
There IL nothing which
benefits the mind and soul of
an individual so much a. good
music, or il there anything
which contributes more 10 the
enjoyment Of life.
Music has always been In
separately associated with
every advancement of man
kind. especially In war and re-
iigion and delivery from great
troubles. from the DAYS when
Miriam, the sister OF Moses,
led the Jews in songs of praise
for their delivery from Egyp-
tan bondage.
The past fifty years in music
have been tumultuous and this
was necessarily brought about by
the effect of INFLAMMATION of
various phases of life. Washing
ton, nevertheless, has seen a strik-
ing growth of the popularity of
all kinds of choral and orchestral
music. which in one of the most
unmistakable signs Of a steady
diffusion of musical taste and
culture.
The radio is a wonderful thing
and the pleasure derived from
hearing the great masterpieces is
immeasurable; but no amount of
mere hearing can compare in in
fluence with participation in must
cal performances No one would

the extent and sincerity of COM
munity's musical culture by the
number of choral and orchestral
societies and, might one add, by
the many fine private teachers.
The large number of young peo-
pie studying music in Washington
compares favorably with the best
states in the country. 1t is to this
fact largely that the notable
growth In the states knowledge
and appreciation of fine music is
due.

Washington State Leading
In Public School Music
Story Goes Back to 1920 Meeting
And Louis Wersen's Leadership
BY J. W, RrNFI,

In last weeks article we refer

school music by Lowell Mason. a
movement that spread over the

might reply that the child
probably shows little interest
In washing his face. bun they
train him to do 10. MANY chill
dren would drop out Of school
II permission were given: hut
by continuing their studies
they get an education that Ia
priceless. II Is largely the
same With q musical educa-
ton.
The beginning Of the splendid
music development in the public
schools of Washington dates from
about 1920, and new interest SEEM
ed to appear in various localities,
but IL was the Southwest Wash
ington High School music contest
in 1928 which gave the movement
it's real impetus.
IL may not he generally
known, but Tscoma's music
supervisor In the public
schools. Louis q. Wersen. had
probably more 10 do with the
movement than any other indi-
vidual.
The excellent performance by
some of the organizations was a
revelation. school authorities
were importuned to include music
in the curriculum and include in
the budget an amount to carry on
music study. Today, there is
scarcely a school in the state that
does not have a music organizs-
ton.
Soon higher teaching standards
were demanded. Special courses
leading to degrees were establish
ed in colleges to train public school
music teachers The effect has
been to place Washington in the
front rank among the states which
include music in the regular course
of study from kindergarten
through high school.
How thorough that instruction
is was indicated by the fact that
at a recent meeting of the Ma
tional Music Educators confer
ence in California. Junior high
school students from our state
won more first chair places in the
National Orchestra than the en-
trants from any other state.
We are beginning to realize that
an amazing dream is coming true.
Washington is developing It's own
music through its own youth.
II Is a wonderful thing to
see thousands of youths at
football game; but we get
something out Of the thrilling
singing of the cappeIla choirs
which are found all over the
state that give one more faith
In the earnest, serious spirit
OF the young people OF tomor-
row, than he could derive
from a dozen football games
with their frantically cheering
mobs. These excellent choirs
now sing practically nothing
but recognized masterpieces.
With the background of excel
lent orchestras. we are standing
upon a vantage point from which
we can look into the Washington
of tomorrow. Here We come
marching toward a new day. with
a new spirituality and new ideals.
What could be more stabilizing.
more stesdying. more re-assuring
than this glorious influence OF
noble music?
