It ia orer now and gaining popularity steadily, and. inasmuch as OF most of the apprehension existent amonc managers that the vogue of war plays may begin to wane rapidly from now on is unwarranted. It may be running here long after It is thru in Clileago. There is little logic in the waning stuff. The good play ought to grow in popiilsrity for the simple reason that millions of people who. until quite recently, were wont to get all the thrills tiiey could stand—and a good many more—from the front pages of the newspapers—now get none at all from that source, and find the new eondi* lions not entirely satisfactory. Tiiese will be drawn to tlie theater as long as interest endures, and further partlcuUn are in demand, which will be for two or three years to come.

Success is a marvelous ambition builder and the successful musical director—the man who can sway and successfully lead a body of musicians to interpret a selection as HE w’ants it played—gains such confidence in himself that he will generally succeed in any¬ thing he undertakes. THE LESSONS ARE EASILY UNDERSTOOD Any musician with a fair knowledge of music can become a proficient Band, Orchestra and Chorus Director by following the direc¬ tions in these lessons, so simply yet so wonderfully set forth. You gain an insight into the interpretations of music that no amount of study on an instrument can give you—you gain a know! edge of the lights and shadows of music—of the “magic of a baton” that intoxicates with delight. ^ 1 WRITE FOR SAMPLE LESSON SHEETS HOW TO BECOME A BETTER MUSICIAN Don’t be satisfied to “peck an alto” for the rest of your life—don’t let the \ I beside you lead while you “string along.” Learn the art of directing, for 5 1
