That there is a substan- Although certainly "perfectly good" tion• body of students who desire to for use when you need them, they are pursue such a study has been for some time a well-known fact. A teacher recently asked her pupils concerning the musical instruments owned at house in order to determine the influence that'musie might have in paca, pec; their daily life. . The 'returns were somewhat surprising. he found that almost every home represented had two or three instruments. Such a widespread distribution shows, that there is a field of education almost un- . touched by the public schools. Tnstrue- tion in many of these instruments could very readily be undertaken by class -room instauctdon, as Stas already been done in some oommunities. The opportunity for a large orchestra, if properly stimulated, is apparent. The private investment in instruments has already been made aad the actual cost to the pulylio school eystem would not be large. The prevalence of music in the homes of pupils •pointie clearly to 'the desirabiblty of a greater recogni- tion. There is no subject that might be taught ht the schools that would 1 have so wide an, influence and value . a Just Words. Mrs•. Mary Austin, in her recent boolc, Everynlan's Genius; declares: "Few people will see 1n the present craze for the cross -word puzzle a de- vice of the deep -self to provide itself with a larger English vocabulary in which to deliver the rapidly ripening Pratt of social experience, but I make no dough't that this will prove to be the case." The shallow -selves of the casual reader and the indent puzzle --fan will hardly swept suoh a profoundly seri- ous explaitatlon of their enjoyment of a clever d7version. But they will cer• falsity not deny the extension of their vocabulary, not only by the addition of new words, unfamiliar variants of old ones, terms of chemistry, anatomy, zoology and other sciences, but by the Mauston of mythological and histori- cal names and scraps of foreign lang- uages, "Does there remain in this country, I wonder," humorously inquired one puzzle -solver recently, "any human be- ing who sees a newspaper and can wield a pencil who has not -made ao- quainlarsce with Ra, the sun god, Eos, the godless of dawn, Ate, the goddess of mischief, Og, king of Basham, and Gog, co -giant with Magog, It cannot i,e!"

"Programme music" has become so much the mode, music which dismisses that "beauty" of the kind that might be called classic;' that it is interesting to read an expression from Mendels- s'ohn—who probably surliase.ed all others in the balance of the classic and romantic spirits in music—in 'a letter written by a young peat, toothe coin- poaer, asking if Se had succeeded in embodying the sentiments of certain of :his-: compositions in a set of poems Written for 11118 purpose.
