You may be humorous, idiotic and meaningless, their capacity for appreciating mere ballad refrains and counting out rhymes. may not sentimentalize, because children have no interest whatever. thing concrete to see, No amount of rhythm strong, hard words do not matter: Browning and Barham achieved knockabout, as Carroll was several times, sentimentality Their chief requirement ® a program. verse they require in general and in detail something that they can picture, someprettiness will atone for the lack of this ele HE problem of providing what will be at once popular and healthy for children has been generally better met in verse than in music. There are Various He may choose a good incident or story, humoris worth. If the story is good and the the child will gladly assume the part in notable guccesses in this nonsensical or frankly and absolutely if you have rhythm. It is rhythmic sound which makes children enjoy You may indulge in sentiment, but you involves the abstract, in which In their ment. Another reason for the child's eontempt for the sentimentality into which so many children’s writers fall is that it conveys a subtle suggestion of patronage, an attitude which the sturdy independence of youth cannot abide. Your ten-year-old P24 resents being written down to. If you wish to patronize him you must do it por4 tentousty, blatantly, as Lewis Carroil frequently does, and R. L. 8S. in such things as: . 4 4 “Children, you are very little, p24 And your bones are very brittle.” , , You will then fall into the class of teases, very popular folk with peculiar gifts and 22 discret ions You may, if you are a real children’s genius, put yourself in their p24 place, write from their point of view, with the brain of a man and the heart of a zB child. But this requires a peculiar power of imaginative projection, and sheer certainty of touch, The result is either inimitable success or blank failure. There is not an R. L. 8. in every generation. This question of words is worth full consideration, because, as words are more important to children than tunes, success in writing songs for them will chiefly depend upon the choice of verse. If writers will remember that children’s taste is much more catholic than is generally recognized, that they require a program and that musically they are more interested in rhythm than in melody or harmony, 2 they will be on the road to success. They can then, having chosen the right words res and decided on the rather small compass in which the child’s voice is really happy, p24 casele above F and comparatively rarely be low the ninth below it, forget their 52a particular object and let the words lead them to sort of simplicity and directness , which Schumann achieved in his children’s piano pieces. 2 —TIHE BOOKMAN, London. pa 4 s AAA PAPAL AL ALAA A : gan, ! fc every Big profits for ee N 7 le. 100. signe. “S19 St luis, New on ean . * nouieien a. octl3 COLORED PEOPLE WANT long hair.
