Upon no subject connected with music Is there probably so much ig- norance and misunderstanding aw the boy's voice and its training. The less knowledge people have upon a- sub- ject, the more freely do they-express an opinion and give advice. People who know as much about music as a cat does about the differential calculus will tell you not to let a boy sing at all because he will "strain his singing (wh«t the throat is not in- flamed with a cold > can doit no possi- ble harm. It is as natural for chil- dren With musical temperament to sing as it is for birds to warble. God gave them this gift, and who dare any It shall be smothered and come to naught? It is not singing that Injures' a boy's voice, but it is the yelling, screaming, forcing the tones to the utmost possible limit of power at play, "rooting" at ball games, giving com- pany and class "yells" and other periodic lapses into lunacy.

People are constintly asking regard- ing a boy singer. "Arent you afraid ■he will strain his voice?" Scores of men have said to me, "I used to have a Wonderful voice when I was a boy, but I strained it when about 14 years old and it has never amounted to any- thing since." Ignorance! Less than 5 per cent of boy singers having ex- ceptionally fine voices are ever heard cf as a singer in any conspicuous way. They mistake the due course of na- ture for vocal injury. At about 14 years a boy's vocal organism begins to enlarge and the chords grow thicker and longer. After this change is accomplished the voice settles into a tenor, baritone or bass, and is, of course, pitched just one octave lower than before. The singer has a vocal apparatus of different dimensions, and the slower vibrations of the voice produce a tone which does not ap- peal to the general listener. The non- sexual clarity and sympathetic qual- ity are changed, together with the boyish beauty, and a man's deep, husky tones take their place. This physiological change and loss of the sweet "boy's voice" would have taken place just the same if he had never sung a note. A boy's voice changes in three well defined Ways, and there are infinite variations of these ways: First, by settling or lowering. The voice gradually deepens and loses the high- est notes correspondingly, but is not broken up. The great majority of boys' voices change in this way. Sec- ond, by a break in the middle, which gradually extends both ways. Third, by going to pieces seemingly all at once. In the first way many boys can sing all .through change of voice without the least Injury, if care is taken not to try to sing to the extreme high limit of the voice. While the change is being accomplished in either of the other ways, singing should either cease entirely or be done with caution under the advice of _ a. competent teacher. In fact, there are few boys whose inexperience and lack of Judg- J lent could be trusted .to sing at all uring the change, without competent advice. I know of only three or four boy singers of rare beauty of voice i" England or America whose man's voice was of corresponding quality, 4123 Ellis Avenue Phone Oaicfnti 4365 the most elastic and flexible things in the world. Any amount of ordinary PALL OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT. The new booklet issued by the Lom- bard college, Galesburg, 111., gives a full and comprehensive description of the Anna Groff-Bryant system of vo- cal education, and is one of the most attractive and artistic announcements issued this season. Its pages are fuli of interesting information concerning the marvelous work being done by the Anna Groff-Bryant system of rounded- out vocal art and education, now fully launched in the new bungalow studio under the personal direction of Anna Groff-Bryant. The following are excerpts as taken from the new booklet: "In 19034 the Anna Groff-Bryant Institute, located in the Fine Arts building, Chicago, and last season re- moved to Lombard college, was found- ed by Anna Geoff-Bryant for the pur- pose of offering the vocal students of America the first rounded-out system of education since the latter part of the seventh century, and to start a re- actionary educational movement against the anomalous condition in vocal education in practice." Advice to Vocal Students. Standardization of vocal education the problem of the hour. The Missouri Music Teachers' as- sociation adopted an "Examination Test" for vocal teachers in order to secure a state license to teach. The college booklet contains the Missouri "Examination Test" in full, and the original course of studies of- fered at the time of the founding of the Institute in 1603-4. Influencing the Age. The Anna Groff-Bryant institute, with its high standards .of---educa- tional requirement for both singers and vocal teachers, requiring each to devote at least three to four years of preparation for life work, has no doubt influenced the present age toward a betterment of vocal educa- tional conditions more than anything thought and action Is at work in the profession. , ■ 'Vocal students entering upon a course of vocal education r should make a serious inquiry as to the edu- cational 'fitness' of their vocal studies and ascertain whether the studies they have been pursuing, or are about to enter upon, will give them an edu- cational equipment---for- their--Ilfe work. "The Anna Geoff-Bryant institute has offered its student body the high- est standards of educational dis- cipline in the city of Chicago for the jfflg£jren_years." Today the Anna Groff-Bryant insti- tute Is located at Lombard college for the purpose of offering greater edu- cational "efficiency" to its student body. All - vocal students should inform themselves of the great educational opportunities offered at Lombard col- lege, which was never equaled be- fore in the history of vocal education, either from an educational or finan- cial point of view. Full particulars concerning the course of studies offered at the col- lege may be had by sending for the Special Anna Groff-Bryant Booklet, or-the college catalogue, which «ay be had free of charge by addressing Lombard college, or Anna Groff Bry- ant, €06 Fiue Arts building, Chicago, or 1187 East Knox street, Galesburg, III.
