GG ART in general is that magic instrumentality by means of which 1nan's mind reveals to man's senses that great mystery, the beautiful. The world is fast changing its notion of music as being merely an accessory accomplishment. As years pass, the strongest minds are gradually re- alizing that music is a necessary link in the chain of arts and that those who are instilling this prin- ciple in the minds of our young people are truly the World's benefactors. Such instructors we have found in Mrs. Wliite, the director of our depart- ment, Mrs. Smith, our vocal teacher, and Mrs. Alli- son, assistant in piano work. Through their careful training we have learned the meaning of the master who gave us this denni- tion of music :- Music is the deeper expression of 23 men 's emotions and joys, not merely a mechanical process in which one strives to eclipse his fellow student. Our department has enrolled about seventy students this year, who have shown talent and a marked progress. Evidence of this has been shown in the six recitals given since September. Seven young women have finished the prescribed work in their courses and will receive their diplomas. May it be an incentive to go farther into the world of melody and find for themselves the richest thoughts expressed in its strains! This department of the school has grown stead- ily and promises to hold an enviable position in the school curriculum as the institution continues to grow.
