Putting it Pr strongly, Dr. Harrison said he (lieyed in the absolute necessity of chgone of the music teachers rbe the structure of musical wcgtion as a whole, and seeing reirfown work as an 'element in lat §structure. He said there were fany varieties of the species lusie teachers and proposed to dis- Lg sh four of them.

I mean first 3 the object and scope of school music teaching, and second, the inter- {relationship and what is today the Jurgent necessity for co-ordination between school and private music J teaching, Dr. Harrison said. ¢ It is a common experience of teachers and students that it is f during the high school years tha! Vthe difficulties of carrying on both S the practical and theoretical sides of instrumental study alongside the ®l increased weight of general schoo: subjects becomes most apparent. On the one side I believe that : the choral work begun in the public the organist Canadi bean doing a val- poorly supported ation and arranging .

We need | the guidance of history. All our yes- terdays it is true, have only lighted fools the way to dusty death. But we need at least the dates of the | yesterdays and list of the fools." Let us call it frankly history then, and look on the secondary school music program as a progressive three-point study in ear-training through choral work in elementary | harmony, and in history, cevering the simpler forms, the musical | structure, and the orchestral instru- | an historical | all against background. The value of such a study intelligently pursued to work of the private teacher is very considerable. It should serie to deepen the student's understanding of the music he studies and act as | | labor organization's operation cept on clear legislative authority," | a corrective to the immaturity of the average student's approach to 'questions of style and interpretation.
