of aajr barm llngucttaf professor dutting explained that rial monotones that is persons who are born without a tonal sense and cannot tel one tone from anot er or match tones are very rare a monotone is a defective just as much as a person who is deaf or dumb when 1 tell that to my students they tire les anxious to eiaiiu that tiuction dead men you might hear a fox bark once or twice or you might hear him bark four to fifty times but never thrice so they said if its true brooded hanson then the man who called at stons town tonight is likely to be one of dl them the farm of stone town was one of the largest in the agricultural area i if a student says she cannot s i ask her try some popular song with j where it stood it dominated on one me vine out of ten of them can side the gorse patched

have been hear- tag these songs practically al their lives the trouble with these girls is that they cannot match tones that is they cannot reproduce exact ly a tone or group of tones given on a pithpipe or sung for them professor dutting advises adults who want to perfect their singing to provide themseves with a pitchpipe they match one ton at a time then groups of tones after a time it will be possible to sing sim ple musical phrases professor dut ting cited the case of a girl who entered her cass last term and was unable to reproduce a single tone correctly working with a pitch- pipe every day and having her friends and family listen to her she was able to sing a song perfectly at the end of he term that girl was an example of the results to be gained by persi tent individual work said professor dut ting i would prefer having that girl teach music to a child of mine to having that child study under a careless musician until recent years little stress was placed on music education and many teachers and even music supervisors could not sing well professor dut ting encourages her students to ac quire a rich musical background by reading th music columns in the daily newspapers attending operas and concerts and listening to good musical programs on the radio she believes a music instructor should be a little of a poet and a little of a musician besides being a pedagogue we try here to do with our stu dents what they will do with chil dren in their own classes they are taught how to introduce and teach a song to a class as rote songs are the basis of music education and are learned by imitation the first essential is for the teacher herself to sing well she shold not attempt to cover too much ground but be sure of her selections and insist on their being sung in an artistic and careful manner children sing naturally and in a thin fiutelike tone many of professor dultings stu dents say they were not allowed to ing at all in elementary schools nothing should disturb the beautv of the class tone quality s pro fessor dutting and a pitch prou- em should not indeed sing with the rest of the class he should be placed in a position of honor how ever and asked to help the teacher listen to the others this should bo followed up with individual help the delinquent idea should not be suggested children feel this and it is not fair to them a child does not rationalize and may er all his life when professor dutting finds a real monotone she suggests that the girl drop the course and pass that time in some other department very few gir wan to do this they efer to stay anil seem to en- remain a listen- joy the course just watching their classmates sing standing on head proves his point ieicesterln the middle of a iec- hc vvi giving here

or not theres trust worthy evidence to the effect that actually some women arc still wearing hope of being something he could not next winters hats be side by magpie spinney if you looked the other way from stone town you saw less than a mile distant the roofs and church tower of morley village time was when the squire of stone town ruled mor ley for the farm was the manor house as well but not today the farm to some might have seemed strangely named but in the days when it was built a farm and a lew farm workers cottages were fre quently called a town we get a glimpse of this fact in the very old song john john john the grey goose is gone and the fox has gone from the town oh stone town until a year ago had been the property of old jasper mer- ridew upon whose death it descended to his daughter jill who after the funeral astonished the assembled mourners and the family solicitor in particular by announcing that she proposed to riin the farm herself experienced farmers looked at each other aghast as though they had seen a vision of acres of dead cows and mis- sown fields the solicitor shot her a glance through his pincenez as much as to say ill see you later about that young woman 1 and he did see her later but if he had expected to make any impression on the intentions of jill merridew he had as jill told him barked up the wrong tree the farm is mine and i can do what 1 like with it she said and ive got mark hanson the head man left to help me but hanson wasnt responsible for the perfection of the farm said the solicitor he is only a workman a good one i admit but it was your father miss jill who was the guiding hand just as 1 am going to be replied jill with a flick of impudence and as for mark hanson theres nothing you can tell me about him after all mr sinker i havent lived all this time in stone town not to understand it and dont forget that i had a large hand in looking after it when dad was so often in london mr sinker gave it up after he had indulged in a citricprophecy oi mort gages and overdrafts and now jill far too pretty to look practical reigned in her fathers stead she could often be seen about the countryside visiting fieldsvwhcre men were at work at first her hatless figure wearing strong breeches and leggings caused a sensation at cattle markets but farmers and auctioneers alike had by this time come to know that whenever her auburn head gave a nod there was a bargain being sought a bargain stone town farm generally gained mark hanson had stood loyally by her in spite of the rustic wit aimed at a man who took orders from petti coats he was a tall somewhat ser ious looking man a few years older than jill he worked hard for her often doing work unknown to her he could in fact have wished more hours to the day so that he might serve her better to see her to strive for her to de fend her and her methods these were the things which alone counted in the life of mark hanson further than that he could not go he knew the uselessness of it he had heard of moths and of stars and of desires stifled from the first by stark impossi bility the position between jill and him self were frankly those of mistress and servant he called her miss jill she called him hanson as her father had done then there was the differ ence in education mark was no clod hopper but his education as he told himself just missed it hc read all he could at nights with some vague it needed little to tell one that some where in marks family there had been fc ceding everything about him quietly proclaimed it in this he was not unique in the land for frequently one may discern the patrician line in the rustic face jill had no knowledge of his feelings for her mark was too clever for that yet sometimes when she unexpectedly caught him looking at her a puzzled hash crossed her mind as for her self she liked this serious goodlook ing man who was always a present help in time of trouble and she frank ly admitted to herself that but for him her last years farming might have beaten her muscular resourceful levelheaded mark had become the firm foundation on which the farm was built jasper merridew had died in nov ember and november had come again bringing with it the work or one might almost say the festival of eidermaking out in the farm yards were great piles of small cider- apple their bouquet filling the air it was the night after the cider press hd arrived that mark hanson heard the fox bark thrice the cider press since the days when most farms in the cider country had their own ancient stone presses is travelled from farm to farm in the same way as after harvest the thresher tours the homesteads it was during the afternoon that an incident happened which led to mark hansons outburst as he gazed across rough valley on that starlit night the work was in full progress and from the press came flowing the palc- goldci juice of the apples each man had his job one to bring apples and clean them another to transfer the juice to the barrels others worked the press in charge of all was mark hanson sitting on a bench and perpetually stamping his feet for warmth was old george bowker who so far as could be ascertained was the oldest man in those parts george had rural cun ning brought to a pitch of profitable perfection whenever a farm was making cider there would be found old george helping he had helped on those farms for many a long day and when old age finally proved too much for him he refused to admit it the result was that he turned up at the farms and ranked as a helper though aithe did was to sit and watch the proceedings for this he gener ally had a fair libation of last years cider and a shilling or two not a farmer was there round about who dared put the matter to old george in its true light the afternoon was well spent when there walked into the farm yard a strange he came in casually not as one with an intention but more as one whose curiosity had driven him thither he was tall and handsomelooking in a slight indefinable foreign way clothes seemed a matter of import ance to him and he wore an immacu late golfing suit which looked as though it could never become what a golfing suit should be he leaned on an empty milkcan to watch the work and in so doing plac ed himself under a window of the house from which jill was doing the same thing those at work glanced at him occa sionally but hc seemed oblivious after a time he caught the eye of mark hanson and with a slight back wards jerk of the head called mark over to him it was a peremptory- movement and mark obeyed before he was aware of it im just having a look round said the stranger i hope you dont mind not at all responded mark interesting job making cider what makes my mouth water whoso is this farm by the way its called stone town said mark evasively he did not care for this stranger but the stranger was not to be put off i asked whose it was my good man hc said it belongs to miss merridew mark was forced to answer hc would have replied even more tersely but he had a feeling that jill at her window could hear the conversation is that the girl who rides astioe saw her this morning auburn hair think that would be miss merridew i should think it very likely con ceded mark strapping girl knows her way about i should think sorry but i must get back to that cider said mark if youll excuse me quite understand said the stran ger amenably by the way before you go does this miss merridew hap pen to be any relation of jasper mer ridew member of an old family here abouts yes his daughter snapped mar stung at last by the mans inquisitive- ness regarding jill and hes dead and the farm is seven hundred acres plug tobacco saves money for smokers dixie only 20 a big plug and most of them feod and the oatle ae mostly aldcrneys and llerefords and the cat had kittens last night rude fellow retort u the other as he turned on his heel just rust ignorance i expect had he tried to anger mark hi could not have done it better than by using the word ignorance it was a void he did not understand he was not quite sure where ignorance began and where it ended blast him tttid mrk half aloud as he strode bsck to the cider press to oe contiaiied old guard list most glamorous movie artistes hollywood at a luncheon the other day were some of the old guard men who had been in the movie ganie for

undisputed big box office were given other credits but not glamor two of my own par ticular favorites maybe yours too were dismissed as suggesting too much ability to create glamor others were condemned as too coldly classical too selfsufficient too just beautiful and nothing else anyway they missed fire somehow on the powerful allure before which strong men bow and weaken others it was contended affected men in too nice a way to pro voke glamor acclaim a sister hold a favorite blood relation appeal then it was contended that certain only women have only screen glamor on the stage or in private life they might be washouts the suggestion followed that perhaps this was res ponsible in no small measure for the frequent change in marriage partners out here the screen personality is
