MENAGERY OF MUSIC

OVER-SUBSIDISED ART'S POVERTY.

PARADOX IN PARIS

Paris.

Intrigued by the fact that Paris provides a city the size of Boston with half AL dozen symphony orchestras, that it probably offers more first performances than any other city in the world, and that in spite of this apparent violent musical interest, it plays the music it presents with consistent bad- ness, an investigation of this para. doxical position is being sought.

The reason seems to be too much encouragement.

en-

France is the prototype of paternal government, and there are few human pursuits that can be described as "worthy" which are not in some way directly couraged by the government by the simple method of handing some to somebody. It appears money that symphonic muale is no excep- tion. In this case the subsidy in handed out in proportion to the number of first performances of Feofchrks that appear on the year's programmes.

It might appear at arst blush that this is a Splendid Thing, but as it works out it gives reason to old the good opinion that doctrine of private initiative and or laissez faire has perhaps one two good points.

YOUNG NAZIS TRAINED

SCHOOL RECESS ON FARMS

NO AIMLESS PLAN

Berlin.

Summer school holidays this year will mean something more than aimless play for some 30,000 Prussian school boys and girls be- of age. tween 10 and 14 years That number, it le estimated, will be taken to the country this sum- mer in the second year.of the Nazi "Landjahr organisation for the agricultural training of the chil- dren.

Organised into brigades, mostly from industrial and tenement sec- tions of the cities, the children are placed in camps of 40 to 50, or are housed in hamlets adjoining the land where they are to work and learn. Although they conte from the less favoured sections of the cities, there are no weaklinga among them, for they have been subjected to thorough physical tests, and have received the re- commendation of their teachers.

The Spartan ideal is predomin- ant: "The Nazl state is not a charitable institution, they must be fit," one official of the Ministry of Culture said in outlining the "Landjabr" work. "Membership

In the Landjahr is a certain dis- tinction for a school child; he finds It easier to get an apprenticeship. Artisans prefer a boy who has gone through the year, and many of have already last year's group obtained good jobs." Participation in the "Laudjahr" is not compul- sory in applying for an apprentice- ship, however, it was stated.

IN THE MORNING

A friendly rublier-good company-a few drinks. Pleasant, fleeting hours. Just one side of life in this country. Tomorrow, the blazing sun the daily round. Can you greet the morning with the joy which comes from a scase of personal fitness, and well-being? You can if you are an Andrews man. A glass of sparkling, pleasant-tasting Andrews in the morning main.. tains the healthy rhythm of the body and keeps at bay the minor ills. In a word, Andrews keeps you fit! It supplies the little gentle corrective which is necessary to us alt and besides it's so cooling and lastingly refreshing.
