SCHOOL NO PLACE MUSIC IS DEAD, Public | Supervisor, and Dance| Orchestra Men Towards Higher Musical Trend. Geo. B. Mathews, Look | | | The | satement wus made today by George B Mathews, supervisor of musie in the public schoots. Tn a discussion of the kKind of music which is heard dally on the streets, in the dance halls, in the theaters and often times in the homes, Mr. Mathews gaid that he was| wory to see that jnzz had made such “n impression on the people of today Mr. Mathews was loath to believe that jazz is as popular today as it wag two vears augo, although he did ad-| mit that jazz music still reigned sn-| preme among the young people at- tending the schools Although King | dnzz does not at present show any in- dications of losing further sway, the increased appreciation of the better types of music among students will in time undermine the interest and knowledge of the young folks in the music which is so popular at present. No “Rag" at School. No 1azz or rugtime music mitted in any of the school orches- tras, Mr. Mathews explained. He does not believe in it and thinks it to be degrading. Mr. Mathews has been teaching music in New Britain schools for about a score of years and at the present time has three gchool orchestras under his supervision, One is conducted at the Elihu Bur ritt Junior High, another at the Cen- tral Junior High and the third at the Senior High school. At the first named school Mr. Mathews is assisted by Mary Oliver and Miss Leola i lin Miss Sarah Townsen and Mark Whitn id him at the Central Junior High, while he has full control of the Senior High school orchestra work. Two rehearsals a week are held at these schoois and ‘everything i3 done to teach the best in music, Pieces written by well known com- posers are studied and at the present time the Senior High school orchestra is preparing Von Suppe’'s “Poet and Peesant.” Up to the Schools, Mi. Mathews experimented with some of the classes in the graded schools to determine the bent of their musical knowledge, He found that after playing a few pieces one or two of the pupils were acquainted with the better known musical pieces such as “Humoresque” or “Poet and Peas- ant," where: half of the pupils or more were familiar with “April Show- ers” or "“Ain't We Got Iun.” This shows that the influence of classical music in the average homes is small, and that the schools must be depend- is per ory THANKFUL FOR A LITTLE CHILD Mrs. Mertz Tells How Lydia E.

"“There is nothing wholesome ahont typleal jazz musie,” Mr. Mathews said,” and it will not permanently affect music types in the future, in my opinion." Dance Leader's Opinion. George O'Rrien, leader of the or- chestra hearing his name and one of the most prominent young musicians in this city, stated in a recent inter. view that the real jazz music has not been played by the best orchestraw for some time Mr. O'Brien present dance also stated that the and popular musie conld in no way he confused with ja2z. As explained by Mr. O'Brien the old crashy and loud jazz music is out of style and he, his profession, dors not believe that it will ever be in vogue again. “Jazz music is dead and has heen for some time, the crash and blare that we once connected with the dance orchestrations has net been used for many, many months," he stated, “and orchestra leaders are discovering that it is necessary for them to engage accomplished musi-. cians to play the music which is puh- lished today." A Public Demand. Both Mr. Mathews and Mr. ()'Brien were inclined to believe that it was the fault of the public that jazz was so popular. Mr. Mathews stated that the public took a fancy to jazz and it grew until it became a public nui- sance. Clmrc!g Notices First German Baptist Church. 46 Elm street. G. H.

Tn the type of heavy cold now prevalent a true It will be remembered that after the terrible epidemics of 1918 and 1919, it was predicted that “waves” of influenza would recur, milder each time, until humanity should have acquired Science has not. yet found the germ, nor medi- But we have learned better how The value of Vicks as an aid in preventing 1922 Avoid Influenza---Grip---Pneumonia Apply Vicks to help avoid infection. Use Vicks at the first sign of an oncoming cold. OST medical authorities now agree that Colds, Grip, Influenza and Pneumonia are all germ diseases —most commonly spread by breathing in the germs. If the system is in good shape—the membrane of the air pass- ages in a healthy condition — these germs do not breed. In fact the germs of all of these dis- eases are frequently found in perfectly healthy persons. It is only when the bodily resistance is lowered—as by a cold for instance—that they are able to harm us. . Avoid Sneezérs and Coughers It is best to keep away from the sneezers and coughers in the street c rs and public places, or if you must meet them, insert some Vicks in the nostrils before you start out. On retuming home, melt a little Vicks in a tin cup or a spoon and inhale the vapors. Opposed to Bacteria The ingredients of Vicks are not only anti- septic, but rubefacient—that is, they summon the blood to the tissues where applied and this free blood circulation is nature’s best method of repelling germ infection. Also Vicks spreads a protective film over the membrane and further- more is opposed to the growth of bacteria. In short, we believe you have a much better chance to avoid infection by these nuraerous germs if you have Vicks in your nose. Attack a Cold Immediately When you feel a cold coming on, go right home. Take a laxative. Make some hot lem- onade, then take a hot bath——as hot as you can stand. Stay in the tub 30 minutes, sipping slowly several glasses of the lemonade. Get into bed, with a hot water bottle at your feet, and pile on blankets. After an hour’s sweat, dry thor- oughly with a rough towel, apply Vicks over throat and chest, rub in well until the skin is red, and then spread on thickly and cover with one or two thicknesees of hot flannel cloth. Get into bad again between dry sheets. Leave the bedclothing loose about the neck, like a funnel, 0 that the rising vapors may be freely inhaled. It is an obstinate cold, indeed, that will resist such treatment. If it does, call a physician. Acts Two Ways At Once Vicks is of benefit in cold troubles in two ways. 1st—Jt is absorbed thru and stimulates the skin, thus®helping to relieve the soreness, loosen the phlegm and make the breathing less difficult. 2nd—At the same time the ingredients, released as vapors by the body heat, are taken with each breath directly into the congested, inflamed air passages. A Vapor Lamp in Salve Form Vicks is the discovery of Mr. L. Richardson, a North Carolina druggist. He realized that cold troubles were affections of the respiratory organs and that the only way to get medication direct to these parts was in the form of vapors. Mr. Richardson finally worked out the process for making Vicks, so made that the body heat Adopt the DIRECT treatment for all cold troubles ABSORBED, like a liniment, and, at the same time, INHALED, as a vapor, Vicks reaches immediately the congested, inflamed air passages. 35c; 75c; $1.50 releases the volatile ingredients in the form of vapors. Vicks really is ¥a vapor lamp in salve form." : The Ingredients of Vicks Since the dawn of history mankind has been searching nature for remedies against cold troubles. The knowledge gained thru a thousand years has come down to us today. Vicks cone {ains the best known remedies for these troubles, some of them of great antiquity. Menthol, for instance, comes from Oil of Peppermint which was grown in Egypt three thousand years ago and whose virtues are described in the old Ice- landic books of the 13th century. ‘The hizhest authority on drugs and their uses is the U, S. Dispensatory. We give below a few extracts frem the Dispensatory on some of the ingredients in Vicks. MENTHOL—"It is actirely anli-bacterial. It 15 caployed for its antiseptic and anaesthetic snfluence in coryza, pharyngitis and laryngtis.” CAMP HOR—" Has a peculiar and agreeabls effect on the mucous membrane—relieves congestion and inflammation—1s @ powerful stsmulant to the respiratory centers.” OIL OF EUCALYPTUS— “Germicidal, antiseptic and stimulant—largely used in chronic bronchitis and infections of the upper respiratory tract—ils vapors are very efficient.” OIL OF TH YME—"Tkis drug is a powerful antiseptic with wonderful healing fvoprm'ls, es- pecially in congestion and catarrhal conditions of the nose and throat."” OIL OF TURPENTINE—"Its vapors are an excellent remedy for, and highly beneficial in, tarious forms of bronchial and lung troubles—has powerful healing, antiseptic properties.” 5 p. m., social hour. 6:30 p. m., devotional service of the Epworth league, led by Miss Leila 5.
