.By HENRIETTA M. REES.
THE following is a brief outline
of the programs for the vari
ous sessions of the' Nebraska
- State Music Teachers' association
which will meet in Omaha the 6,
7 and 8 of April. Some of these
. 'programs are not yet complete, but
for the most part they are arranged.
One or two extra numbers may
still be added to some of them and
perhaps one or two changes made
which will be announced next Sun
day. There has been a great growth
of muiscal interest in Nebraska in
the past few years, and a large part
, of this has been due to the untiring
and conscientious efforts of the
. music teachers. The association has
been formed that they may get to
gether, know something of each
other's work, discuss common prob
lems and gain something of interest
and stimulation in their own field.
- Music lovers who are permitted to
join as associate members will bring
much, of encouragement by thus
. demonstrating their interest and
, will also have the opportunity of
' , enjoying the programs which make
up the various sessions of the con
vention. Miss Edith M. Miller is
secretary-treasurer, 3418 Burt street,
