Excerpt from Melodic First Reader The melodic course IN music was planned and named coincidentally with the Harmonic Course. The educational idea of the two series is the same, the order of subjects and the manner of development remain unchanged, but the practice element is differently treated. Power and facility may be attained in two ways. First, by practice on a large number of carefully graded studies, each to be used in a restricted way. Second, by a repeated and thorough study of a few distinctive typical forms. The first method was employed in the Harmonic series. The second is the basis of the present work. The name Melodic series is justified by the large use of melody, the song ele ment being the basis of study. Each idea is incorporated in a melody through which it is fixed on the learner's ear and eye. This remains as a type by which the tonal form is forever after recognized. The melodies thus used are largely new and original. Well-known composers in America, England, France, and Germany have written songs for this series which are especially designed for the use of children. From the assembled mass of mate rial procured, selections have been made; these have been carefully tested in the schoolroom to demonstrate their attractiveness to children and their fitness for the purpose intended. It is not difficult to collect a mass of interesting song material for children, but to provide material which shall be pleasing in melodic qualities and adapted to the precise educational end desired has demanded infinite care and labor.

Excerpt from The First Music Reader Tnn child's first year at school is a very important one, for then deep and enduring impressions are made on the mind. Music is one of the most potent of early influences; hence it is wise to teach such songs at this stage as will best contribute to the, future as well as the present enjoyment of the child. A pleasing melody is appreciated by a child quite as much as by an older person; hence it has been the aim of the author of this series to select and compose songs for the First Reader, that. Both in the melodic construction of the music and in the sentiment of the words, are best adapted to please as well as instruct children.
