At 11 'am. a "big "hank of black clouds rolled up toward the city from the north-west. Everybody said, "Big shower coming," but nobody dreamed of what that shower would consist. The strocts were thronged with wo- men, bent on their. Saturday shop ving; and in front of many stores there were arrays of goods exposed for sale The storm came 'so quickly that few persons got indoors ove it burst; and when the women: finally fled into shops and looked at themselves in the mirrors a chorus of . shrieks aroke. Spotted hats, spotted gowns, even spotted faces, confronted the women. The spots were red und it seemed that there must have heen something acid in the downpour, for tiny holes were caten into the fabrics.

Written fof Whiz by Miss Ros A Brunifl "Native is gn 3 1 sehoounaster lenient with the young, relentless with she old. .

That there are almost as many so called methods as there are teachers of the vocal aft today is an es tablished fact, but throughout broad professional field, that which is engaging the attemtion of scientific thinkers is upon subject of voice pro duction, gad the great problem facing those who are about to eater 1 profession, is the relative merits of the natural as agsinst the artificial tone. The one may be easily gotten; sa tisfies all demands made upon it fon the time being: is rapturously a plasded by the publi, who accept it ot face value; lives a short time; then, gone forever. This is the prea ture or too rapidly developed tome Kiown as the artificial tone.

Nature's laws have licen violated inthe production-of . artifi cial tone and nature demands her redress. In the production of the natural tone, none but purely Voeal muscles are called into play, and, says a well known writer: "The voeal instru ment is as individual as to its purpose as the eye or ear. Its normal function- cannot be confounded with any other normal function nor blended with any other physical effort for production of tone and live out its predestined limit of usefulness. This important truth is now being widely recognised and the world is too wise and opportunitic for comparison far too numerous to admit of any claims for artifice as against art." The natural tone is the child-voice developed and matured, possessing o free, liquid and youthful quality, which is its greatest charm. Its creed is the creed of relaxation whereby a tone at once pure, luscious, resonant is produced. Its purity and not its joudness provides carrying quality and the most . sensitive ear is never ofiended or shocked by a tone, pierce ing, over-brilliant shrill: Relaxa tion is perhaps of all its requirements the most difficult to attain and is at once the friend and foe of the wtu- dent, who is afforded, during the first two years of her study, ample oppor tunity for the exercise of the great virtue of patience, for this tone i= a read "Will-o'-the-wisp®* during its foundation period.
