The desire to have music taught in public and high schools in Ontario is evidently growing, as music is now on the curriculum for teachers' examinations. examinations. '-We have yet to learn of any mother who does not desire her children children to be taught music. We heard a debate recently on the relative merits of music and oratory, and after hearing hearing arguments advanced by debaters on both sides, we came away more strongly convinced than ever that both subjects should be given greater prominence in Canadian schools. The following essay on Music in the Home, is worthy of careful perusal ; and serious consideration by all parents, parents, teachers and school authorities: It has been said that in no country on earth, not excepting music-loving Germany, are there found so many pianos and organs in homes as in .this country. All agree that this, is as it ! should be. Music is invaluable as a means of recreation. Amusements in the home should have these characteristics--they characteristics--they should unite the family, deepen childrens love of home and guard them against temptation. .To accomplish tjie first object we need recreations in which parents and children children can join. Is^there anything more genial and heart-warming than to hear the whole family joining in a hymn or song? We read a great deal to-day about making farm homes more attractive. Why shoùld not the | farmer's household be as cheerful, as ! fuir of pleasure, as that of'the town] or city man? Music affords effective! means of doing this. One of the greatest attractions for old and young people when visiting in cities is the music that may be heard there. No family can really afford to do without some kind of music. It is. a luxury and an economy. Of course, we all know music can influence to evil as well as to good, and that in ! some of the lowest music halls of the city skilled musicians may be found. But if we cultivate a taste for good music in the homes, girls and boys will have little taste for the coarse variety. The hymns sung by a mother mother to her little boy may in' after j days be a voice that will recall him! from the path to ruin. For "A voice from the past calls out midst the throng, His mother's sweet voice in ! her lullaby song." Every song soothes j and uplifts. It is just possible that at ! times a song is as good as a prayer; | indeed, the Sweet Singer of Israel j wedded his sincerest prayers to mel- j ody and wafted them upward on the j night air from his throbbing heart, j The soul that has been touched and made tender by the fingers of pain, music finds a place where it may murmur murmur its sweetest chords. It was Henry Ward Beecher who said: "You can sing your cares away when you cannot reason them away." One morning the sweet voice of a woman was heard singing a ballad in one of the tenement house districts of a city. The effect was almost magical. Not only did children swarm out of their dingy homes and surround the singer, but adults leaned out of'windows for several blocks on either side, and when the music ceased, the listeners turned again to their work refreshed spirits. Someone has said, "Sing to the wicked man, sing to the disconsolate, disconsolate, sing to the old, sing to the children; children; for music will inspire them all." Truly, there is power in music--an almost almost unlimited power. Who does not know the softening power of music?] Many are the incidents that could be given as to the power of music.

Greek Bishops were everywhere appointed appointed whose chief work was to Hel- lenize the Bulgarians by substituting Greek schools and books for Bulgaria, and the establishment of the Greek language and customs. Before this step was consummated some Bulgarians of the old National Church were cruelly massacred. But the "reforms", if such they may be termed, were continued. The Bul- mony of a well ordered life is most gracious music." When we think how! ff ai 'ians finally became aroused and be- we much the world needs awakening,- can think of no power better calculated calculated to do it than that which dwells in the mysterious melodies of music. Music appeals largely to the emotional emotional temperament, and it is probably, probably, lor this reason that it has been given such prominence in the service of the church, even from the days of the temple, when the Psalms * and prayers of the people were chanted. One result ol this is the constant use of music in divine worship. "Worship without praise would be an impossibility. impossibility. The best eff orts of our great i masters have been brought to bear I upon the sacred form of music, us render unto God our best most sincere efforts, and be satisfied with nothing lower.

This is undoubtedly the root of the Bulgarian question and the true cause of the Balkan troubles of recent times. The religious question is so intimately intimately interwoven with the national aspirations and ambitions of Bulgaria that Ferdinand would, indeed, be rash it he agreed, as the report says, to turn over the country to any partieu- lar eecleastieal creed or control. For over 70 years the struggle between between the Bulgarian and Greek Church continued, until finally in 1870, when the question had long since become become thoroughly incorporated in the Let j demand for national existence and ream! ream! | cognition, the Porte, to avoid trouble, called the Chief Bulgarians to Constantinople Constantinople and there granted the imperial imperial firman or decree re-establishing the Bulgarian exarchate. In 1872 Archbishop Autim was appointed appointed exarch of the Autocephalus, or self-governing Bulgarian Church, the Church of the Czar Bonis, the Church of St. Kyril and St. Methodius, j The revolutionary movements of 1877 cast suspicion on the Exarchate Autim and he was promptly deposed by the Porte and duly exiled. Bishop A ovtchefF was appointed head of the Church, and was hailed as Josephus I. the Grand Vizier of Turkey Turkey receiving" the Berat in 1877. There were many in Bulgaria who.-, desired the exarchate to direct the Church from one of the ancient Bulgarian Bulgarian sees, but the Church and its head was, and still is, a political, as well as a eecleastieal institution whose aim is the freedom and fication of the Bulgarians. The new exarch began his propaganda propaganda for National freedom at once, and was promptly exiled by the Turks, who had been careful to keep the lead of the Church at Constantinople, where he could always be under sur- villance. But little else than intrigue and plot characterized the National Church up to 1877 when the war broke out, and the treaty of San Stefano in 1878 secured secured Bulgaria's independence. This excellent treaty was torn up later at The inducements offered with common soaps cannot make up for (he purity of ounlight Soap. It costs US more to make pure soap.

In the meantime the exarchate was confined in Constantinople, but worked constantly for national independence. In 1896 the Russians proposed a consolidation of the Greek and Bulgarian Bulgarian Churches and the removai o the exarchate to Sofia, but the Bulgarians Bulgarians saw .in the proposal a plan to remove Macedonia from the Jurisdiction Jurisdiction ol the exarchate and successfully resisted the proposed union. It should not be overlooked that the Russian Greek Church considers Prince Boris, the son of Czar Ferdinand, Ferdinand, as one of its members, this being a concession to.Russia by Ferdinand, who is himself a Roman Catholic. The Pope refused to give his consent to this change, but Russia forced it by political pressure at Sofia.
