I Mr. Sousa's remarks on the oppor tunities and advantages now afford ed ambitious men and women in the musical world should be of particular Interest to students and to music lov ers, i "Music as a vocation. Why should we not encourage a boy or girl I who is talented in this, to spe cialize Ih it and to hope to win rec- ! ognition and remuneration from their i efforts Just as we might encourage others in professional, vocational or commercial pursuits? As to the fi nancial side of the matter, never was music more worth while and more lucrative. I pay my own men from $50 to, J 150 per week. With the rapidly increasing population of Am erica and the widespread availabili ty of educational advantages demand for entertainment, and the willing ness of the public to invest money in good music,, there is a strong demand for musicians and this demand will grow. Pleasure Emphasize:!. 'And another reason for the de sirability of music as a profession is that it is the most pleasant of all the professions.

If a man is strong, vigor ous; mentally alert, fine and fit at 50 he has a better chance of living up to 80 than a man of SO who h weak and run-down has of 1 living up to 60.

The musician is always giving joy or solace, from the first dance to tne wedding, and allalong the way to the grave. Lieutenant Sousa was asked as to wbat he considered the main diffi culty or hindrance In public, school music. "The principal obstacle to the teaching of music to large as semblies or classes is the inequality of grouped -individuality. Take any group of people and as to musical sensibilities they will about grade as follows: Seventy-five perecent will be merely mechanical in trend. 20 per cent hav a certain adaptability. 4 1-2 per cent have talent and in the remaining one-half per cent Is rep resented genius. . Salem Reputation Recognized. "Now, Mr. Davidson," Mr. Sousa said, "take your city of Salem for in stance.
