Children Prefer Good Music.
Mrs. Palmer is in charge OF the

being director of the schools musi-
cal programs. TheodoSia Walter
Palmer is convinced children in
stinctively prefer good music to
jazz.
"Of course. it is essential to
choose selections suitable to their
years and general trend of in
terest," she emphasized. Proof of
this is demonstrated in the popu-
larity of the schools musicales
among it's student body. for they
invariably feature music by the
worlds great composers.
Although the teaching OF
French begins with the very
youngest pupils at Maret and
continues in use as a dual medium
throughout its secondary school
courses, which are fully accred-
tied by academic rating associa-
tons. a satisfactory pupil at this
school is required to be abreast of.
and sometimes is in advance of,
the customary standards" Mrs.
Palmer told me.
| Since many of the pupils from
diplomatic families in this 40-year-
old school learn both French and
English simultaneously in its dem
ocratic atmosphere and since a
parity is always maintained be-
tween those from ong-established
families and those who are for
eign-born, she feels true spirit
of internationalism prevails among
the children.
| Founded by Maret Sisters.
Administered by Mrs. Alice Car
son, it's principal. and a Board
of Trustees. the school owes its
inception to the initiative of three
sisters, the late Misses Jeane,
Louise and Marthe Maret. whose
father was a French consular
officer in many European cities.
