The Mask Memory Contest has be come an annual evenf in several hun-^ died cities and is now being made a statewide activity m several states in the general national awakening to the need of more and better music m home, school and community. 1 The thought of directing the atten tion of pupils in the schools toward a given number of standard selections of music for'an "intensive drive, as it were, originated with Mr. C. M. Tremaine in 1916. It has pra^d to be a powerful factor in ihe.Cfforts ot. schools, clubs,.musicians and the??n-fc eral public in bringing beautiful n? : ate as a cultural element, in the lives j our youth, and also in raising the [. Aafldawl of appreciation , of the wortd"s best music. f-. It is safe to say that through the Music Memory contest several bun dled thousand children have become interested in good music, have learned j to know really fine eompopsitions and } some interesting facts about the great j composers and their works. JIhe gates of a new world of beauty have there by been opened, which, when fully ex plored, will bring a knowledge of taste and love fpr the beautiful in, music. This in turn means added health, joy and happiness to our individual and national life. i.The contest in the Farmville school \ H arousing much interest among the children, also the parents and num bers of others who are vitally interest ed in the welfare of our youth, ^Selections to be studied next week: -Hark! Hark! the Lark! by Franz Schubert Franz Schubert, an Austrian,- the . neatest song writer whn ever lived, " wrote his flielodies, it seems, vdthout wasvery dearly associated with poet ry and most of his songs are settings _ of poems of the great masters, Shakespeare, Goethe, Heine and oth eie. "Hark! H^rk! the Lark!" is a sotting of the morning song,, or Ap bade, from Shakespeare's '<Cymbe fine." It is said that Schubert, on wandering into-a cafe, found there- a volume of Shakespeare and was so im pressed with the wo-.-ds of this poem that he wrote this beautiful setting on the hadt of a menu ***** ^ It was written in 1826 an^, stands to day as a model of song writing. The lover stands beneath his lady's window and calls to her in his love serenade, to swa?e and behold the beauties of ? 4lm*Km?se. The melody is bright and graceful, the rythm spirited and gay, the poem charming. One senses all thfe freshness of a mortiing in'spring time/its blossoming trees, its twitter ing birds, and the gorgeous colorings ofi the sunrise. The poem follows: Hark! hark! the lark at heaven's gate sings, - And Phoebus 'gins arise, _ His steeds to water at those sprmgs, On chalked flow*rs that lies, 1 Ot? chalked fiow'rs that lies, ? 4# winking Mary-buds begin | "v -; - - I ??>* vT.mil Tf Pt? iflttsPB*." - -' yS^by8^^ G^d;'a F^h - - -.--'v indifference ft riM receivea wun l ^ilW hrrrrn" one of : the.
