Public School Music.

shall have attended two summer sessions. Detailed information
in regard to home study during the academic year may be had
on application to Professor Fillmore.

Courses for Grade Teachers.—The probability is that the near future
will witness a requirement made by school boards and state
boards of education, demanding that the grade teacher shall qualify
in music as she must qualify in every other subject in the elementary
curriculum. Such a requirement is already in force in several states.
This makes a special course of music for grade teachers an actual
necessity.
