Dunning School of Improved
isic
Study
MRS. FRANK A. RICE -
Announces that the has received from Carrie Louise Dunning a
diploma as an exponent 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 ingeniously constructed keyboard with grand
staff attached, simplifies notation by uniting these two important
factors.
Bach 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 Seventh
and Modulation. The written work 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 apart of every
lesson.
Mrs. Rice will be glad to show you BY APPOINTMENT
the especially made apparatus for teaching this system which in
cludes one class lesson and one private lesson each week, making
a far more economical way of acquiring a musical education.

Among tho latest of tho animal

according lo Officer Kelly's re
port, ho was unnblo to tame.
She did not have much respect
for a policeman, ho said, so was
unable to copo with tho situa
tion. A long drawn out argu
ment over a duck was listened
to by Officer Anderson, who
saw noppssiblo end to it, as tho
argument was ueiween two
women, so ho left tho situation
to solve itself. Dating back
the days of King Solomon
similar argument over a child
was brought to an end by tho
introduction of a sword to divide
the child. Whether this mcth
