He was un- able to explain the reason. It often happens that American students do not in some instance progress as regularly as many European students. Our musical education facilities, on the other hand, are often superior to those of other countries. The truth is that whatever lack there may be in progress in America is due very largely to the tragically wasteful American habit of discontinuing music study in summer. The study of an instrument is dependent for its success upon continual practice. | Pupils leave the teacher in fine shape in June (sometimes, alas, | in May) only to return after a summer of indolence in Septem ber or October, with a loss in efficiency of about 50 per cent of the work of the previous year. This loss in our usical educa- tional system must run well into milicns of dollars every year. This is altogether senseless and wholly unnecessary. fac summer of all ons of the year, is one of the best for music study because:— 1. Most families rarely take more than two weeks vacation in summer; 2. Moreover summer is the time when, because of the ab- sence of other studies, the child can accomplish the most in music; . 3. Weather conditions are better and there are fewer inter- uptions from sickness in summer. (This is particularly the case with vocal students) 4. The climate even at its worst rarely makes practice im- possible; 5. Music is so delightfully taught these days that study in the summer is welcomed by normal children. 6. Many great metropolitan music schools have proved over and over again that music study may be conducted in summer classes with unlimited succ ¥ 7. Only a few years ago millions of dollars of College and University equipment were wasted in July and August. Now summer schools form a vital part of most academic programs. Take advantage of the summer to allow your children to make double the progress. Cooperate with your music teacher, and continue your studies during the summer months.
