How Music is Used on the Itallam'
Front.
-At various points along t Italian
front not far from the fir( g line,.(
there is being given concerts the
soldiers and we are_ old that th idea
originate with the supreme mill ry
command. So much good has n
accomplished by these concerts ,th
an organization has been effected
extend the concert arrangements. It is i
said that already six'ooden theatres
have been erected, *Haan conquered'
territory, and that the taak of secur-
ing talent is being made easy by the
ready assistance of Italy's foremost
musicians and actors. At one of the
first concerts General Capello him-
self was present.
The first programme took place in
one of these soldiers' theatres right
opposite the Carso; the ruins of bom-
barded houses all round, in view of
Austrit.tt entrenchments in all their
complicated system. A variety artist
was singing a favorite song when an
enemy aeroplane was sighted. She
continued unperturbed while the
Italian aircraft chased away the un-
timely intruder.
An recount of these 'concerts has
of wa-
5-
reached the Englisb press from Italy
and the following is an extract sent
home by a Canadian soldier: To these
concerto soldiers ho are enjoying the
customary rest after a trying time in
the trenches come in thousands to find
that relaxation and recreation from
nervous tension wh'ch are a vital
neees:ity for the preservation -of the
health of the combatants. Not much i
drama or light comedy is given. Sol-
diers who have just come out of the
jaws of hell do not want to see the
!petty nothings of every -day life. They
wan$( and get, ligt•t entertainment in
the fotem of farcical plays: something
to laugh at, and forget the misery of
• the past and present. Operatic arias
are of course the order of the day,
seeing that they form part and parcel
of' the Italian organism. Then cer-
tain elements in the audiences crave
for, acid get, the latest music -ball
songs. Famouit,actors recite in the
divers dialects so dear to the natives
of the different departments of the
countty. in their special instance a
heart* laugh, unbridled and unre-
strained, refreshes their, tired, racked
nerves, better perba iI'l in a niahl's
rest.
To the mi5tbers alitd fathers
who desire to giVe their

Beethoven says, "Where the piano is there le the hap-

value of a musical education to the child. Music Is the
food of the soul, and should be nourished

and
