The spring games of the Multno mah Amateur Athletic Club today were held Iru the presence of 6,000 people. The day was delightful but very warm for the runners. Astoria's delegation, drove Into the grounds shortly before the races began In a four-in-hand beautifully dec orated with blue and white, the A. F. C. colors. t . Five men started in the half mile race. As Talloiiit, the Astoria- long-distance champion, took his place, he was heart ily cheered, tha new club yell being par ticularly conspicuous. The race was an excellent one. Parsons, a Tacoma man, with 30 yards handicap, took the lead and held It for two hundred yards, whon Tallant, who started from scratch, caught 1:1m, and racing beautifully was never reached again. He Mulshed strong In I minutes 4 seconds, breaking his own previous record by 2 seconds, and lh Northwest record by four seconds. The mllis race was by far the most orllliant event of the day. There were five starters, Tall'int - being the only scratch m.in. They got away well togeth er, with P. J. Braaee (65 yards) In tha lead. . Curtis, of Tacoma (50 yards). changed places with Brazee half way round the first lap, and got well away from tha bunch. Tallant started In at a clinking pace and at the end of the first lap ad caught and passed the whole field with the exception of Curtis, and slowly began to close up on the leader. At the end of tho second lap Tallant slowed up perceptibly, troubled with severe pains in the side and stomach. On the last lap, however, he pulled himself together, and though It was seen that he was running with difficulty, gradually gained on Cur. tls. On the last lap h'a made a grand spurt -td breasted .the tape neck and neck with' the Tacoma man. The. crowd rose at both men as they finished one of the fln'jwt and closest contests 1 ever run on the Multnomah field. Both faint ed after the race was over, and had to be assisted from ' the field. The judges after a long cosultatlon gavj the racs to Curtis.- Time, 4:48 1-5. Tallant would have won with the greatest ease had It not been for the sudden attack of cramp. The Quarter mile race was won by Martin, of Tacoma, in 53 3-5 seconds. Tal lant did not compete In this event. One hundred yards Won by McGregor, of Tacoma. Time, 10 2-5 seconds. Two hundred and twenty yards Won by McGregor in 23 2-5 seconds, 6 1-2 yards handicap. This is about equal to record time. PUBLIC SCHOOL SINGING. NO DELEGATES FROM UTAH. Salt Lake, June 8.

WOODFORD, Tho Astoria Abstract. TltJe and Trust Company. Washington Evening Star. In no other branrfi of education, It is claimed, have the public schools of the District of Columbia progressed so far In the past Ave years as In t'he department of vocal instruction. The methods, the tneories ana results have been prac tlcally revolutionized, and all has been done so very quietly that no word has been spoken. to the public through the press in explanation of t'he transforma tion. QUALITY, NOT VOLUME. ". A visit to one of the lower grades of schools during the music lesson which lasts twenty minutes each day will af ford an excellent basis for comparing tne 01a ana tne new methods. In former days a class of children singing could be heard not only through the building,, but upon tne streets. The chief annoyance to residents living near schools was the periodic screeching through which the little ones were driven, like so many steam whistles, operated on the theory mat mere was lust so much steam pres sure oenina each mouth and that, there. fore, there must be just so much result In tne way of sound. Results, It Is as serted, were then confounded with vol ume, Instead of quality. THE TEACHER AND HER WORK, "When I took charge of a grad school," sa'.d Miss Bcnmmell to the re. porter, after expressing the vain hope that her name might be omitted from whatever might be said on the subject. "I saw that the then existing method ot teaching music regarded volume as ot the first Importance, and that no atten tion was paid to the quality of the tones or the management of tho voices. 1 could see that the little ones were hav ing their throats strained, and I fear that a tremendous number of voices must have been ruined, voices that were even promising. Tha general mars of the pupils had their taste as to tone vitiated, all belhg sacrificed to quantity of sound. There was no culture In their work. . . "The notion was that the child who sang lusUly must enjoy the music, and this was pretty nearly the end of It ell. Too much attention was paid to the beating of time, which had become a most mechanical 'process. I found that a majority of tha children did not know how to read music, and. Indeed, ths whole subject was being taught as It had been for fifty years, while It was only too apparent that outside of the schools the methods of music Instruction bad advanced marvi-lously In that period. I was reminded then of the re mark of a famous author, who said that she regarded the growth of choral so cieties and the Introduction of music in schools as a detriment rather than as an advantage, because the processes that were used ruined voices while Immature that might develop Into artistic organs. "I saw that there was a good deal ef volume being produced, making a satis factory effect as for as quality was concerned, but I knew that the natnral voice of the child was small, and that this great volume must be unnatural. There was, therefore, a strain some where, and I knew that no stnging Is right or good that is not produced with out strain. So I went to work In my own school and for four years I strove to reduce the quantity of the sound, While trying-to Improve the tone. "I reduced tho tone so that the children could sing much more than before, and so we used their strength In other and more vital directions. I began in that year to Introduce the study of the Inter vals, which had been practically neg lected. That, of course, was the chief reason why the child could not read music. Reading Involves two elements. time and intervals, and these had never been separated. I first took up the Inter vals, and believing that they could be taught objectively, Jut as numbers and geography are taught, I adopted the system of hand symbols that had been In use spasmodically In different parts of the country at various times, but never here. Witti the symbols we could teach intervals, and we worked back and forth and drilled and practiced, until we had overcome some of the old faults. The children had been taught chords un til they were In ruts and when called upon to Jump with their voices from 'do' to 'sr or from ml to 'la' or to make any unusual Intervals, they were non plussed. I laid down the rule that a child Is not .taught an lnerval until' It can sing It when It has been preceded by any other lntefval, and can sing any other after It. Then; and only then, does the voice become sufficiently flexible to follow the eye when reading. "With an encouraging amount of suc cess the first year we-followed up ths Interval teaching the second season, and made, an arbitrary division of the In tervals,' so as to Insure perfect, system of work in each school and not to allow any one teacher to adopt her own. plan, that would get her own school Into mors ruts. This division made two groups ot Intervals, the notes do, re, ml and fa be ing In the first, and sol, hi, si and do In the second. - After the children had made every possible combination In each group all they, had to do was to combine the groups and they had been given ther ough practice wlt'h every jump and Inter, val of which the scale is possible. "Please remember that during this time we were doing the same kind of work in ail the lower grades, and that the chil dren were on the same basis. We had discarded the old books and were tear ing down all the old foundations. Tha second year we had made some more In. novations, stopped beating time, for In stance, In the old mechanical way, and used a pendulum, which la the slmpUst form of meronome, " The children watched the swinging ball and so gradu ally absorbed the notion that there are two elements In rythm, that Is, regular recurrence and accent. SIGHT READING. "Then It occurred to me that the only way to teach sight reading to the little ones was to have them read new musto at each tessan, Instead of doing tha same song over and over agalm "The same is true of reading language, No child can learn to read If he is kept on the same page all the time. The music, of course, had to be carefully graded, so that a child should never be given music ahead of his ability to sing. We hunted high and low through the music of the world for songs of vary ing simplicity, and these were hecto graphed and distributed among the schools, to be sung In connection with their other work. I tried to get songs wlt'h good sense and good sentiments in them, which-was not always easy. "But meanwhile we had not deprived the children of the pure pleasure of sing ing songs, and had adopted the plan ot ' giving them a few rote songs that would make the lessons more Interesting and would! teach, them - the spontanlety and Joy of song, So we picked out some simple airs and gave them to the little onea, songs about birds and flowers and spring and other seasons nature songs, they might be called, most of them from the German. Indeed, I should have been lost without the beautiful melodies of German music. These songs were given to the school, as I say, and the chil dren learned them by rote, and oh, how they do sing them, even yet, with their soft, pretty voices, and their sweet faces looking' as If they enjoyed every note, This was the dessert of the feaBt. Ws keep these rote songs as a part of th system' now In the first three grades. THE PROGRESS MADE. "After two years the children began to read fluently and we returned then to the old singing books and took up th songs that formerly were drilled Into them by sheer force of lung power, There was a great difference In the results, I can assure you. And so we have gne, making a little advance each year, ana gradually spreading the system until. each grade now has some pupils In it who have been Instructed under the new plan, while the higher grades have pupils who nave Deen drilled under both the new and Wie old. It will be four or five years yet before every child In the entire pub lic school system, from the first grad to tne last year in the high school, has been -taught only the present system. Un to now the work has been only foundation building, but now we have begun to construct. Last year we worked on the lines that lead to quality in tone, and strove, oh, so hard, to ease Wie tension under which tha children sans:. We Wi-ned ht lack of tension was the secret of natural and therefore of irood l ncinfr. The perfect voice means perfect free dom, though, of course, this equation Is not reversible, as perfect freedom does nor. mean a perfect voice. Hut w mnt have the freedom of body and nerves if we are to have the perfect voice. Ss we try to get the children to sing in, a imneciiy easy attitude, we make thern shrug their shoulders about -until thev are perfectly flexible, and If there Is a irown on their brows we straighten that out. No one can sing well who la frowning. These are lkrin rhin ...f they go to the seat of all the trouble." Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report - 3M Ton tJtUA L.'!ji
