Not just the idea of the artist or trained singer raising I his voice for the rest of humanity to! ho4- and admire if nossihle, but of; evT.ybody having- a part in this form of expression. The appointment of song leaders bv tha government at the various camps has given great 1 impetus to this means of emotional j outlet.. Community music, which is j rapidly growing in all parts of the country, and the constant efforts for greater results in public school music by the supervisors in various sections are helping both the grown tips and the children to have the enjoyment and sometimes relief of music.

"In this essential of the great artist alone Ysaye eclipses the composer of the (k'vil's trill.

"If you know and appreciate music, lie urged that beginners (am to sing belore they take siudy of anv instrument, and a great deal ol that everyone is, but the idea cent want sing" shouh up til said mat there was great human music should know. There tliat every one should .sing, and Ram j an idea of music and knowledge from; contact in tins way is ra t bri ne to many. Family ridicule at any at tempts lor means ol expression in this manner has long ago discouraged many who might have eventually -.incd irom it rriucli pleasure ami' personal enjoyment. Most of these ' gTOw discouraged at such remarks as, j "Where do you feel bad?" "Does it hurt that much:" and in the ond never ' try to sing at all. orelsc tti the se- ! elusion of their bath, to the acctmi- paninient of the running waier, and tecurely locked away from uiterfer-j ence, they dare to wildly enjoy them- i selves with whatever of song they I have in mind. Many others are self- ! conscious, and would not think ot I opening their mouths for singing if i there was any cliance ol any one else hearing them, for fear they would sing wrong, and thus appear ridicu lous. Others have felt that they should not try as long as they did not know anything about it, could not rcd a note of music even, and cither gac up through force of circum stances or other reason, or as Mr Surcttec suggested, had their of interest killed in youth by forced into learning the tec some instrument and all the phernalia of reading music, gaining anv idea of music as pression of life. Nowadays, encouragement is held out to every one to use his voice and to improve and interest himself by means of it, whether he goes in for technical training in some musical in strument or not. The old question, "which is worse, the man who can sing and won't, or the man who can't sing and will." has been definitely answered. "The man who can sing and won't," for the mail who can't sing and will, if he perseveres may eventually learn to do so. But in learning to l.novv and love music in this w-ay, just as in any other, where te devotes himself to the technic of kime branch,, as well, the disciple rt.ttst learn to listen, think and con centrate. And if he does this, it should not be long until he is reveling in much of the finest music which has ever been written. The finest music does Appoggiaturas. Publishing houses have decided that no Cenuau copyrights will be reprinted in this country during the period of the war. Musical America says that accord ing to a pamphlet just issued by the educational committee of the Phila delphia Chamber of Commerce, Phila delphia spends $1(11,000,(101) on music, and of this spends $ 1. 1000,000 for recreation and educational music.

She writes: "Let the children make their own gifts for one another at Christmas. My hoy of 9 has made rardhoard fur niture covered with wall paper for his sister's doll house, wooden animals cut with an inexpensive hand-saw from patterns he copied out of hooks and magazines and a toy ironing hoard and stand which gave great pleasure. The animals were cut from cigar boxes, saud-papercd, colored and mounted on wooden stands. The baby liked them better thart boughteu toys. My 6 and 10-year-rdd girls made a wagon of a pastfboard box, covered inside am. out with pretty postcards of children and animals, with cord to draw it by. For the baby they fash ioned a pair of reins made of old hair ribbons washed and braided and two sleigh bells sewed on, a family of pa per dolls with originally designed ami colored clothes and a fish pond game, quite as attractive as the "tie 'i the store, were other gifts made by their small fingers. The best of it is, even the baby will say when he sees one of these playthings, T.rother made my horse for me,' and he and brother are both twice as happy."
