MEDFORD WAIL TRIBUNE, rEDFORD, OREGON", SUNDAY, MAY ?. 1032 PAGE TOREK Society and Clubs Edited Wednesday Study Club Hears Talk By Mrs. Williams The Wednesday Study club mem ber met for their last study session Wednesday afternoon In the city li brary. Mrs. Williams brought a most timely and enlightening resume of recent developments In the United States to the membership. Retalia tory tariffs, she showed, are hardly enough to balance the debt of the present year. There have been many freak bills presented In congress this year. Among them she listed a re quest for construction of federal buildings In each county seat In each state, which was not passed. Another asked the government to provide free movies and free radios in every pub lic school. The great deficit In the government, she stated, Is staggering. Everything possible has been taxed, and now congress Is at ft loss to find anything else to Impose a tax upon. Foreign trade has decreased at ft very marked degree during the past year. The recent Near East Droblem has revealed the fact that the United States Is the only nation that has not built up her navy to the full quota as was agreed upon by the Peace Dis armament Pact. A new religious tol erance Is noticed, and a most radical change in educational affairs. A great advance In science has been made. And many say the country needs more homes and a return to the more essential things that really count In the lief of a nation. Mrs. Humphry in ft clever manner reviewed Christopher Morley's book "Swiss Family of Manhattan," which Is a cleverly written story as a satire on the modern American family. Mrs. J. O. Grey presented the Cur rent Events, an article on the fallacy of the daylight saving plan war very interesting. The club members will be guests of Mrs. J. O. Grey Wednesday, May 18th for one o'clock luncheon. There will be election of officers for the coming club year followed by a social after noon.

Hodgson of Eugene, who is visiting her broth er And wife Mr. and lira. John H. Roll ton. by Eva Nealon Meaning of Music Week Revealed in Mrs. Strang9 s Talk . Expressing In simple and Impres sive language, the meaning of music week. Mrs. Elsie Carlton Strang ad dressed the audience gathered at the high school auditorium last Tuesday evening and the pleasing message she conveyed was as follows: About ten years ago, Isabel Lowden. living In a small town, In the mid dle west, I believe, conceived the Idea of dedicating one week In the year to music, in her own community. at least. .The Idea went over so well that she felt encouraged to. appeal, through the president of the United States, to the nation to set aside a week each year for general music ob servance In all Its branches. There fore, largely through the untiring efforts of C. M. Tremalne, director of the National Bureau for the Ad vancement of Music the first week of May was set aside as music week and in 1924 May 4 to 10 the first Na tional Music Week was made a real ity. This week we are celebrating the 9th annual National Music Week and we are told that the movement u fast becoming International as ' many countries abroad are following our lead in this noble achievement. The power of the movement lies in Its ability to utilize all the musical resources of a community, and thus to reveal the many-sided appeal of music. As applied to schools, music week may be made a medium of Unking the schools and homes, children and parents to the advantage of public school music. Under this plan, not only the schools but the parent teacher associations, music clubs, women's clubs and other groups may profitably support the plan. Conspicuous in the celebration, of course, la the special music In the churches, concerts of all kinds, and large scale affairs, such as contests, community programs, and last but not least, music In the home, includ ing group and solo playing and sing ing as well as the use of the phono graph, radio, and even the player piano. In fact, the ideal music week celebration will engage the active participation of all the people, old and young, either as listeners or per formers at home, In the church, the school or the concert auditorium. Americans, at any rate In the Unit ed States, are not naturally a singing people, but this la far from tnying that they are not a musical people. The Immense strides, especially of instrumental music In the last two decades prove that America Is fast becoming musical. To this progress, the public schocols have contributed a great share, and they are destined in the future to play a still larger part In the nation's musical develop ment. All of this depends fundamen tally upon a sound public sentiment in favor of music, and a conviction on the part f the tax payers th t music education for all the younger generation is not a luxury but a necessity. It will be well for the supervisors of music not to neglect the opportulty offered by National Music Week to strengthen the realiza tion of the value of music, by help ing to bring about a hearty coopera tion of all available sentiment re garding the Importance of music. The peculiar value o. music week lies in the fact that it changes a merely latent community Interest In music to one of active participation.
