Give the Children Music
-Early!
By Olive Roberts Barton
a potential Every mother is teacher. So is every older sister) or brother.
It is worth thinking about in these days of limited pocketbooka. Not long ago a lady of my nc- quaintance who plays the piano beautifully was lamenting the lack of money to give her small daugh- ter lessons. It never occurred to her that she could teach the child herself. the rudiments of music
Of course she is busy but half an hour three times a week could surely be spared.
Let me tell you a story. I hap- pen at the moment to bo visiting my sister Mary Roberts Rinchart.
1 hadn't touched a plano for years but I ant down and played n few old tunes the other night that surprised both the piano and myself as well as my sister. They were not remembered, these old tunes-they were reflex, imbedded In my spinal column and the tips of my fingers, but there they were, old Victor Herbert operas, "Waltz Bleue," "carta and Flowers" and
so on.
Tunes Stay With One
We began to talk about old times and Miss Walton, her music Leacher when she was a little girl. I had the same chance but I was sick much of the time and I didn't like to practice, so in a month or two I was kindly removed from Miss Walton's tried
tired nerves, and my musical future abandoned.
and
Yet hero I was years and years later playing Schubert's "Sero- nade" and Handel's "Largo." It was these that caught my sister's attention.
Mrs. Rinehart anid, "Who did teach you to plny? I can't remem |ber someway."
"You did!"

it wasn't much. You've learned a lot since then."
Don't Wait for "Teens"
"I hated it like sin, but you made me." I told her. "You taught me all that was in your first exer- cise book. I remember the day you flew excitedly down street and bought me my first pleco."
"What was it? Bluebells of Scotland'?" she smiled.
"No-Sousa's 'High School Ca- dets. And I couldn't get it. But once I learned it I played it till the family held its ears. Later I branched out on my own. I never had another teacher. What you taught me I simply worked out by myself."
Mrs. Rinehart must have been about 12 or 13 years old when she commandered me as a pupil, I was a bit younger. No ono sug- gested that she teach me music, certainly not I She was deter- mined that I learn and it was only my own impatience that broke up her interest in my musical educa- tion.
Something to Cherish
|And They're Complete-Not Begging Evening Wrapal|
BY JOHN SAVOY NEA Service Writer
Real imagination has gone into the new evening things that are appearing about town,
The summeriest of summer fabrics make them. Coloura vary from dark to the most misty pastels. Blue is better than black, for a dark choice. And practically all of them are costumes, rather than a gown that begs for an evening wrap,
•
Uppers are still the spectacular part of these evening gowns. Though some of them have introduced back fullness that falls in folds in a fascinating manner that has quaint
newness.
Organza is the glamorous summer fabric of the moment. A stunning navy blue organza hus its dress made with a moderate neckline. V in the back, and then has a little jacket that gives a peek-a-boo effect over the dress, the jacket being close up around the neck and with long sleeves. The jacket crosses in front and ties in aash bow in the back.
Foulard and taffeta take inspiration from Queen Elizabeth to fashion a stunning summer evening outfit.
The yellow and black foulard, with a new crinkly texture, makes a charming dress with a wide collar following the neckline clear down the deep back. Over this goes the littlo Jacket with threcquarter sleeves, ending in pleated rumes. The pleating outlines the coliar, giving a soft frame for the face and the lapels which point clear out over the puffed sleeves. The skirt is beautifully cut, with point scams around the hipline that glenderize the figure. Then the skirt flares gradually until it is suficiently full for comfort and dancing.
