As to Poor Pianos in Public Schools In the course of his travels through the country, says Musical America, our editor has had an opportunity to visit many of the high schools and address the pupils. He has thus been enabled to get into close touch with the conditions condi-tions that prevail with regard to music in the public schools. In- some places he found the pupils had no suitable auditorium. audi-torium. In many he found the pianos in use were antiquated squares, some of which had evidently not been tuned for years; the result may be imagined. If there is a mistaken idea indeed, if ther is a ridiculous idea it is that any teacher, teach-er, however lacking in competency, and any old rattle-trap Instrument, are good , enough for beginners, whereas the 1 contrary is the truth. All things, nfth-! nfth-! er material or not, depend absolutely j upon the foundation they rest on; consequently, con-sequently, it should appeal to ordlnarv common sense, even to those who have little knowledge of music, that if there Is a time when the pupil requires the best, not onlv in the way of tuition, but l in the way of a musical instrument. It is I right a t the start. Surely, during the I formative period of the musical ear noth-: noth-: ing could be more damaging than an , incompetent teacher, backed by an !n- Mrument which produces a chaos of discord dis-cord s. Our editor, in his public addressej, discussing dis-cussing this situation, tells the story of two old maiden ladles of Maine who had had a square piano left them by their mother many years back, which was in terrible condition. Importuned by a musician who eajne along, they finally consented to send the old heirloom to a dealer in Portland, Port-land, who put it into something like order, ae the old ladies valued the instrument in-strument f6f Its associations. He had the piano restrung, new hammers put in. and got it into fairly ffood condition. condi-tion. The old ladies not only refused to pay I th bill, but sued the dealer for J50ft damage to the instrument, on the ground that he had ruined it, as it no longer i sounded as it used to.
