M-------------- Noted Authority on Music to Speak Here Thursday Afternoon Thomas Whithey Surette, perhaps one of the most outstanding authori- ties on the study of music apprecia- tion and an eminent musician, will speak at the Greeley school at o'clock next Thursday afternoon. The meeting is being held under the aus- pices of the Greeley Parent-Teacher association and all residents of the Vil- lage and the north shore are invited to attend, Mr. Surette was at one time a lec- turer for Oxford University and is at the present time associated with Har- vard University. He is connected with a great many public and private schools in an advisory capacity, among which are the Winnetka public schools and the North Shore Country Day school. He is also one of the board of directors of the Boston Pub- lic schools and an advisor of the music departments of Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore colleges. His chosen field lies particularly along music appreciation lines and his talk will be devoted mainly to this phase of the study of music. As many parents have asked about music and the proper way of teaching it to children he will also give suggestions to parents regarding music in the home, and answer questions. A special invitation has been ex- tended to the members of the Win- netka Music club to attend the ad- dress, which will be followed by a tea. PRESIDENT OF C.A.A. Hobart P.
