Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Catholic Educational Review, Vol. 17: January-May, 1919
It is to the recognition of this fact that the teaching of music in our elementary schools is indebted for most of the time and energy now expended upon it. Since the occupations of the adult no longer provide channels for adequate emotional expression, and the home life of the child no longer provides adequate means for emotional cultivation, society is called upon to provide opportunities for the emotional life of her people during their hours of leisure, and she is obliged also to provide through her schools for adequate emotional training.
