THE MORNING OREGOXIAX. FRIDAY, JXTLT 3. 190S. TALENT FOH MUSIC-" HAS GONE TO SEED Only One Teacher Out of 100 Has Ability, Says Mrs. E. B. Carroll. DULLED BY MONEY'S LURE President of Portland Musical Club Delivers Biting Denunciation of Modern Civilization Before Seattle Convention. SEATTLE. Wash., July 3. (Special.) Modern civilization, or part of it at any rate, was roasted to a rich brown turn hy Mrs. E. B. Carroll, president of the Women's Musical Club, of Portland, be fore the convention of the Northwest Association of Music Teachers this morn ing. General deterioration has set in, in all the professions, she declares, and amors women especially, according to Mrs. Carroll, not one per cent of music teachers has any real ability or any right to adopt that profession. "The average American mother." said Mrs. Carroll, "is the victim of vaccina tion, dissatisfaction, unreasonableness and unrest and the moral and intellectual confusion in which the child is born and lives precludes the possibility of any spiritual growth. "The deadly deterioration which has infected every phase of Intellectual and moral life is due to the fact that Ameri cans worship only one God. have one vital reason for living, money. With lack of respect for and appreciation of honesty, conscience and truth. Is it any wonder that our educational institutions have become undermined and cheapened? We have lost the power to discern the good from the mediocre, truth from falsehood, or music from noise. Music is a sealed and Incomprehensible book to the masses, but the so-called teachers are responsible for this mystery and enigma. Imw ideals have compounded with dishonesty and cheapness of the teacher. Great art or science was never evolved from the brain-quick class who deal in six weeks- Summer courses at Normal schools and make graduates while you wait."
