MRS. FRANK A. RICE .
Announces that bhe has received from Carrie Louise Dunning a
diploma as" an exponeut of the Dunning System of Im
proved Music Study, which includes the Faelten prin
ciples concentration and the Leschetzky Technic,
Formed into classes pupils are taught by musical characters and
rhythm sticks. An ingeuiously constructed keyboard with grand
staff attached, simplifies notation by uuiting these two important
factors.
' Each difficulty is presented in such a thorough manner that
a child of ten or twelve years can master transposition, scale
building, melody writing by dictation, the Dominant Sevcuth
and Modulation. The written w ork teaches the student that music,
as a language, they must learn to write, as well as interpret.
The muscles of fingers, wrists and arms are .strengthened by
table technic; ear training and sight reading forms a part of every
lesson.
' Mrs. Rice will be glad to show you BY APPOINTMENT
the especially made apparatus for teaching this system which in
cludes oue class lesson and one private lesson each week, making
a far more economical way of acquiring a musical education.

The West begins Where the
East leaves off
And no man knows the spot;
The starting point of tho sunny
South
Is tho place whoretho North is
not;
We call it East where tho wel

First tints th2 rosy skies;
Wo call it West where the
shadows fade
When tho evening twilight
dies;
We call it North where the snow
drifts pile,
When tho wintry blizzards
blow;
Wo call it South where tho

And tho sweet mugnolias grow ;
wo will travel East, wo will
wander West
To tho North or Sduth we'll
roam;
If we're still in sight of tho

That spot is home, sweet home.
For tho starry bannor shall float

From the calm Pacific shores
To tho rugged rocks of tho far

Where tho broad Atlantic

There is no North, thcro is no

And wo know no East, no West;
For any old place in tho U. S. A.
Is tho spot that God loves best.

of this year, tho monthly deficit
has been moro than $100,000 a
month, with succeeding months
showing a deeper into red

of the disastrous experiment in
municipal ownership. Tho pro
perty is deteriorating, and there
is no money to keep the system
in good repair. No provision
whatever has been mado for
retiring the first bonds matur
ing next year. Add to the act

upkeep and tho interest charges,
the city is goinx behind about
$2,000,000 a year on a C cent far.
