PERCUSSION BANDS
PIPES FOR CHILDREN r The importance of teaching children the best music was urged by Mr. Cliarlos Bavin at the Oxford Summer Course in Music and Music Teaching recently. "It is very wrong to inflict on tho child somo of the horrible stuff which has been written supposedly on the levol of little children. There are plenty of nursery rhymes, folk-songs and simple classics, and it is quite unnecessary to look beyond them." Miss Irene Short, lately director of music at North Foreland Lodge,' Kent, speaking on pipe bands, said: "The making of pipes is coming into favour again, and wo can all make from reliable bamboo sticks instruments which will have a really beautiful tone and will b(j an unlimited source of pleasure. Children love making pipes."
