The new school will be nated in Shawinigan, or attached 20 the Berthierville provincial nur- , according to requirements, and be essentially practical. The oouree, which will last. two years, will qualify those attending to do service as expert forest rangers, and #8 calculated also to give opportuni'y $0 the student to enter the forestry '#ehoo] in Quebec if ho wished to com~ piste "he practical study by more ex- tensive courses. Certificates of capa~ gity, improving the present status of or rangers, will be issued by the new school, | EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM'S RELATION TQ MUSIC There i8 real need for music ap- preciation study throughout our edu- cational system. The splendid de- velopments in public school music work Increase rather than decrease the importance of giving to our und- versity and college men and women similar opportunity. JThere is a need for an opportunity whereby every student will at least become familiar with the Miiton and Shakespeare, the Dante Moliere and Schiller of music, as well as the melodramas. Music is a pleasure which we con- tinue to use throughout our lives. Many of the subjects which we in- clude in our university and college courses have as their basic argument the fact that they lead toward efti- zenship, a large understanding of life and its problems, and towards an en- riched enjoyment of the world about us. To no other study do these argu- ments apply more adequately than to the stody of music. Excepting tho dally mewspapers, the number of peo- ple-who listen to music is greater than those who read. It {s a more frequent source of enjoyment than books. But how do we listen? Arc we getting the most out of music? Exercise and Music, There is considerable to be said in |favor of regular exercise systematic- ally pursued. Most people who have followed out a set of fixed physical exercises will testify to their tomic and invigorating qualities. During the war setting-up exercises were a regular part of the programme in every training camp. An exercise le as useful and beneficial to the civil- jan as to the soldier. But it is not a stern necessity with the clvidan, however, and he usually lacks tho urge sufficient to get up and negotiate a set of dry exercises before begin- ning the day's work. The incentive is lacking. The above facts have apparently been kept in mind in the making of a eet of phonograph records pubMsh- ed by a firm of health specialists in New York. In this set music supplies the incentive for daily exercise. No one who has moved rhythmically to music elfther in damecing, marching, etc., will deny that music provides vv an exhilaration which greatly en- bances the pleasure of movement. The same idea applies to exercise. Mueie gives it a punch and a purpose. This particular set of exercise records comprises six records with complete directions and {llustrative charts. There are twelve exercises, every de- tall of which is carefully explained on the first four records. The last two records are for use only when one has iearned the entire set and can go through them quickly. The com- mands are clear and quick, and the music is well adapted to the exercise which f¢ accompandes, 'Plade of Music in Ofvilization; It has been said by a great musiec- jan thet the music of the brass band ds the most perfect expression of a nation's feelings, of its joys and sor- rows, its hopes and aspirations. To no other appeal will the masses of people, men, women and children, rise so quickly. The music of the brass band fires ambition in the lag- gard. Many a soldier was inspired to bravery in battle by its music. It gives them an indefinite sense of ex- hilaration it makes their hearts beat faster, it smoothes the discords of na- ture into harmony, it arouses the fin~ est enthusiasm and it puts bravery in the heart that is timid. Music is a great force in civiliza- tion. Every period of intellectual ac- tivity, social or political, reacted upon music, To illustrate, we need but re- fer to the formal character of the music of the period preceding the French revolution and the freedom and rigor imparted by the spirit of Romanticism which followed in the wake of that great political move- ment, a difference strikingly illustrat- ed in the music of Hayden and Beet- oven, Clementi and Schumann, The sclence of music had a high place in Chinese philosophy, the sages alone comprehended the canons, and the mandarine were considered superior in point of musical knowledge. In- teresting dates are given showing how early the Chinese had dévelop- ed a science of music. In 2277 B.C, for example, there were 22 writers on the dance and music, 23 on ancient music, and 25 on the construction of the Scales. These facts imply many years of previous development be- By the originators ED. GALLAGHER-AL.

A national conservatory of music is bound to appear in Canade some of these days. The Dominion is unique in not having eome sort of an institution of fine arts allied with, or supported by. the Government, but there is growing evidences that our states men and politicians will turn an at- tentive ear to the call some oright day not in the far-distant future, In- deed, the actual conservatory may come sooner than we expect, though not probably in the way that music- fans might anticipate, Private initiative has achieved most things in Canada, and it has done a great deal in supplying us with institutions of learning in the musical field that are of high quality. But it is perfectly possible for a na- tional institution to be established without in the slightest degree con- flicting with private institutions al- ready established. It should, in fact, add to their patronage by centering public .attention more definitely up- on music and glving music as a whole a higher standing in the minds of the people of the country. The Government-supported institutions of other countries are not criticised as Interfering with private instruc- tion--rather they appear as giving a stimulus to study which must re- dound to the benefit of all concern- ed in"the art. Every music lover in Canada should see to it that our legislative assemblies take more than a pass- ing interest in music. No Govern- ment to-day is acting in the best in- teresta of its people by ignoring the cause music. Why not a Depart- ment of Fine Arts at Ottawa? 'Where The Joke Comes In, Of Dvorak's '"Humoresque,"; Op. 101, No. 7, a Minneapolis violinist tells this story: "When I was in Prague I said to Dvorak: 'Why did you call your famous little work a 'Humoresque?' No one who plays it humorously, as its title demands, plays it as he feels it.. The old composer replied, with a twinkle in his eye: 'My boy, that is where the joke comes in." AT ADOLPHUSTOWN.
