THE SCARS OF WAR
If we want the new generation to come through free from the mental scars of this war it is up to us to provide the right means of escape. In war, youth seeks excitement to escape from excitement. In peace that must not be so if we are to regain social stability and a true sense of values so rudely shattered by wer Music, as perhaps no other influence, provides the young mind with the ideal background for mental and physical wellbeing But because the war has suspended all import of pianos and musical instruments, music, of all things, is what New Zealand so sadly lacks. With this in mind, Charles Begg and Co., Ltd., are making a Dominion-wide search for Musical Equipment. You can assist. There may be a piano or musical instrument in your home that is no longer played. Before your instrument deteriorates through neglect or lack of use, get in touch -with Begg's and thev will make you a full cash value offer. Don't hesitate —Ring or write to Begg's, the Musical and Electrical Centre.—Advt.
