The possession of u piano a. ml the ability to play is about the most cherished desire of every child.
You fathers and mothers do you ever stop to think what music means to your children?
When you mention getting them a piano, do you notice the light that comes into their eyes? Their
little hearts crave music a natural, wholesome, God-given craving; as necessary to them as sunshine and
play.
Y6u are sending the.ni to school to learn reading, writing and arithmetic but are you giving them the
advantages of a musical education? Are you neglecting that which, next to their spiritual welfare, is most
morally essential to their young lives?
It's a fact, and the foremost educators agree that 'music in the home is an essential part of a child's
morals That the child who sings or plays the piano is naturally cleaner morally than the child whoso
mind knows no music. , -JH
music int he home is an essential part of a child'scap your children by bringing them up without a
knowledge of music; their young associates play their way is easier socially. The ability to produce mu
sic secures for your child an open door to most every home.
You want your children to have a knowledge of music; it isn't lack of desire perhaps, but the usual
high price of a good piano has caused you to put it off. You have hesitated paying the prices generally
asked for the make you want.
