To thus connect the positive poles of dynamo and battery is most important, as a reversal of this would cause the battery to dis- charge instead of charge and cause very great injury to the cells. .

"Will readers interested. in these radio articles kindly communicate The Musie of Chopin, One sometimes: reads that Chopin's compositions are weak in respect of their form. In regard to this, a writ- er in an English paper calls aiten- tion to the fact that although Chopin wrote no mass, no opera, no symph- ony, and not even a good sonata (ag- cording to the critics), he is yet ranked among the ten or twelve who 'have done most to increase the range and flexibility of musical expression. Rising from a perusal of Chopin's piano music, composers on the grand- er scale have been enabled to make their own scores more finely elo« Gguent. Two of the greatest gifts offered by the nineteenth ntury toward the rrogress of music 'were the protrac tion of discords before resolution, and the emancipation of counter point and---directly in the one case, indirectly in the other--:these gifts were the more swiftly and richly granted through the work 6f Chopin, As regards * musical form, Chopin wag small-minded and shortsighted, his disability mainly arising from the Polish on of tonality which deba Bim from a large and free bandling of the key system updn which the bigger musical classics are founded.

What rot! ABOLISHES THE TAX ON MUSIC TEACHERS 8an Francisco Board Responds Quickly to Protests Against This Unjust Burden. Following a series of meetings of the license committee of the Board of Supervisors, San , the vocational tax on music teachers has been abolished. Approximately 200 men and women will be alfected dy the change, which involvgs about $3,000 in annual license fees. The decision of the committee was reached after protests had been made by members of the music trade that music teachers were the rip do uocational workers who were 4 to pay license fees. The absurdity of fie- [this tax had been called to the at- tention of officials several times. According to its provasions there was a minimum tax of $3 a quarter on any dncome, however small, un- der $3,000.
