HINTS. To give increased power, smoothness, and flexibility to the voice, nothing is better than daily practice on the scale and short exercises in vocalizing, which is adapting vowels to musical sounds. This should always be preceded by a breathing exercise, the breath being detained in the lungs until it is needed in singing. This also gives neatness and accuracy. Children, like older people, have a tendency to fall into a lazy, slovenly habit of sliding from one

tone to the next. Before teaching singing by note, it is advisable to teach a good many little songs by note, in order to bring the children's voices into unison. Some professors of music assert that all songs should be learned in this way before the syllables or scale names are applied; but our experience has led us to adopt the contrary opinion. Singing by note is to music what phonic spelling is to reading. Singing by note is not learned so rapidly when the practice

consists mostly of songs, as when the teacher calls for tones not associated with any tune. A child may learn to sing a tune by note, just as he learns a sentence by hearing it read; he may or may not be familiar with the words which compose it. So he may learn a tune perfectly, and still be unable to give a single separate sound in it. I would make this em phatic: there should be a great deal of practice in

Beating time is of the greatest importance and should be mechanical. The child must have something tangible to guide him. Two-part time is the simplest and can be accurately beat by the youngest child in our public schools. This can be followed by three-part, four-part, and six-part time. As soon as it is practicable there may be singing in two parts.

Are your Text-Books unsatisfactory?

If they are, it must be that you are not using the best.

Why not Try

Morton's Geographies.

This series is admitted to be the best on account of the great simplicity, clearness, and directness of the text; the great superiority of the maps, and the surpassing beauty of the illustrations. Teachers approve them. Pupils delight to study them. They are so logical and orderly in arrangement that reference to any subject is easy, prompt and certain. They are up-to-date, and they are reliable.

The Progressive Course In Reading.

This successful series of school readers is approved by those who use it because the books are perfectly graded, beautifully illustrated, safely progressive, and surprisingly low-priced. Teachers prefer them because they are made in accordance with sound educational principles; children like them because they are interesting.

Williams' Choice Literature for all grades, and The Sight Reader for first grade are the approved Supplementary Readers.

Hull's Arithmetics.

These Books meet with favor everywhere because they are free from all senseless puzzles, while they contain everything that is practical and useful in Arithmetic, and this they contain in its simplest form.

Sheldon's Language and Grammar.

This is a successful series, presenting the whole subject of Language and Grammar in two books. The rules for the inflections are derived from the actual necessities growing out of the use of words employed in original composition. All of the inflections are thus treated as they become necessary, in order to use the proper forms of the words in composition.

Warren's New Physical Geography (Revised Edition.)

This attractive volume has just been thoroughly revised, and presents the important subject of Physical Geography in the clearest and simplest form, as it is now understood by the best scholars.

The Modern Spelling Book, Sheldon's Word Studies, Patterson's Common School Speller, Patterson's Grammars, Scudder's Histories, The New Franklin Arithmetics, Sheldon's Arithmetics, Hull's Algebra, Sheldon's Algebra, Hull's Geometry, Hill's Rhetoric, Avery's Physics, Shaw-Backus' Literature, McCabe's Bingham's Latin Series, etc., etc., are always the choice of the best teachers.
