J. Hor- wood, Musical Doctor, Toronto Con- servatory of Music, during his ad- dress to the teachers' convention here yesterday, following the ban- guet at the Port Hope United Church, "Music," continued Dr. Horwood, "is a language everyone can use as a medinm of speech, and children have more music within them than the average person suspects. In Eng- lend a child is taught 4o sing at five years of age, and music becomes a part of each pupil. This is partly brought about by the use of folk songs," pointed out the speaker, "which I highly recommend." "Music is a language," declared Dr. Horwood, "and the twelve tones are the alphabet. It is quite possi- ble to learn enotgh of this wonder- ful language in public school to read any piece of music at sight," promis- ed the speaker. 'However, it must be borne in mind that the mental faculty of hearing," interposed the musia teacher, "is essential for sight reading." Painting out that a musician rare- ly is a criminal, Dr. Horwood strong- lv advocated the teaching of music in hi~h schools, with a matricula- tion examination in the subject. The speaker, deploring the lack of Cana- dian music composers believed the teaching in high schools would help to overcome this. "Stories of the lives of composers should be read in class," continued "Hallelujeh Chorus," "I dreamt that |1 dwelt in Marble Hall," 'and "My Bonnie LiessOver the Ocean."

Y Kellough, B.S.A., Agricultural repre- sentative . for Durham County, the shoots already being four to six in- ches high, with broad leaves. This county is a very good fall wheat district, over 10,000 acres plant- ed last year yielding an average of 27 to 28 bushels ner acre. Some far- mers near Port Hope last year had vields of over 50 bushels an acre, while many yielded over 40 bushels to the acre. iL { While fall wheat has not been con- | sidered as good as Marquis spring ! wheat, a new variety has been pro- duced which is said to equal the Mar- guis.
