It has been said that "Science has disowned the past: so must art, to fulfill our intellectual needs." We need only to call to our minds the seven modern "wonders" of the world to realize the gigantic strides that have been made in the world of science during the past twenty-five years or less, namely: 1. Wireless telegrap) 2. Telephone ' I!. Aeroplane. j 4. Radium. 5. Antiseptics and antitoxin. 6. X-ray. 7. Spectrum analysis. I The recent exhibitions of the an products of the "cubists" and the •futurists" at the Art institute of Chi- cago, were startlingly vivid illustra- j tions of the equally gigantic changes going on in modern art. The "modern- ists" in the art world are also seek- j ing to interpret greater truths, "the i inner meaning behind the bodily form i the divine essence in nature." Whether or not modern art will suc- ceed "to fulfill our intellectual needs" is as yet a thing for future develop- ment, but of one thing we are certain, and that is that modern art is revolu- tionary. The scientific wave sweep- ing the world-wide over-during the last of the nineteenth century also in- vaded the vocal world, where It has wrought similar revolutionary changes in matters of vocal art, science and education. No doubt that from the beginning of artistic singing, which dates back to the invention of opera and solo singing, during the latter part of the sixteenth century, a beautiful singing voice, or even a good voice, has al- ways been considered a "gift of na- ture" and the singer "talent." This universally accepted "belief" that a beautiful voice is a "gift of na- ture" has been the greatest stumbling block to the progress of scientific ad- vancement in the subject voice. Every known attempt of scientific investigation of the voice has always been regarded as audacious, out- rageous and as rebellious against tra- dition and as offering an Insult to the very name of vocal art. Whatever may be said or done, the fact remains, that no "subject," known or unknown, is exempt from scientific analysis In the course of tiuie Aianuel Garcia, the famous alugiug master, was the first n><tii to enter upon a scientific investigation of the voice to ascertain the cause of vocal sound. He conceived the idea of making ob- servation upon his own larynx Jur ing the act of producing sound. But before he could proceed with bio ob- servation 11 became necessary for him to invent a contrivance of some kind to aid him in his undertaking. For more than a half century men of science had been hard at work to in- vent a device for illuminating the in ternal cavities of ihe human body and among these the larynx. But it wa-i reserved for Manuel Garcia, a pro- fessor of singing (something for the vocal teaching profession to be proud of) to successfully invent a laryngeal mitroi or laryngoscope, in 1855, where men or science had practically failed. The invention of the laryngoscope wrought marvelous things for medical cience; it revolutionized the whole eatmeiit or the diseases of tae throat; it added more information to vocal physiology; it opened a ne«v depart mt.nt in medical science and created a new medical ptactitiouary known a* throat specialists. The laryngoscope, however, failed utterl) to add any material assistance to the vocal teaching profession, hi fact it has w.-ought as much destiuc tion in the singing world a» tt has proven a real benefactor to tho u.edl cal woria The sli^iuj, «»,«iJ i. i.., i.. '.. - chaotic condition as t. e res .it t *. e larnynfioacopic work Ail traallloueJ methods of teaching nave been aboi ished. etch teacher ia teat fling his or her own individual method and each claiming that his is the only right method L the world. In brief, the sub Ject matters of the vocal profession namely, vocal art, science education, standards, ideals, ethics, research work, and reform^, have ail become secondary interests and most of them almost entirely extinguished Vocal interests are at the present day a secondary consideration to that of the Individual Interest of tht vocal teacher and singer. About the year of 1890 and 1891 a young American vocal teacher con- ceived the Idea of specializing in the study and analysis of the "impossible" singing voices, or all voices as were commonly considered not worth culti- vating, or people who considered they had ho voice. A systematic course of procedure was undertaken and sev- eral hoars each day was devoted to What People Are Doing; in Kenilworth this scleptiflc research work. A search was made for the crudest voices pos- sible to find. The discoveries and analysis made in the first year's work were of such a positive nature as to extend the hopes of finding things out in a few more years, as to revolution- ize matters in the singing world. Iu less than ten years every phase of crude, imperfect, defective and dis- eased vocal sound possible to be ut- tered by any human voice had been put to the test of the newly-discovered vocal truths and methods of treat- ment, with the result of 95 per cent of each specific phase successfully cor- rected and the vocal instrument de- veloped Into a beautiful singing voice The hope is extended now to everyone desirous to sing and satisfy that "inner craving" of every human heart to express himself in sons with a beautiful singing voice, that a musical singing voice is latent in every human being and may be obtained by any- one who is able to devote the re- quired patience and labor to tho undertaking of perfecting and devel- ' week Percy Eckhart has gone to New York for a two weeks' stay. Little Emily Durham and Eleanor Eckhart are III with the whooping cough. Mr. and Mrs. Farwell left Friday for a two weeks' fishing trip in Wis- consin. The John Haslam home in Essex road has been sold to W. S. Klea, who will now occupy it. Mr. and Mra. Carl Keith left Friday for Northern Michigan, where they will pass severul weeks. Mrs. H. O. Edmonds is In Mollne this week the guest of friends and relatives until after July 4. Mrs. James R. Chapman returned last week from Erie, Pa., where she visited friends for two weeks. William Lester left for Milwaukee this week, where he has accepted a po- sition in a large wholesale house. Mr. and Mrs. Mark W. Cresap re- turned Friday after a two weeks' trip in New York and other eastern cities. Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Scott of Orange, N. J., were guests in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Armstrong last oping the voice and the art of singing. These latest discoveries in the sub- jectâ€"voice und vocal methodsâ€"have enriched the world as follows: A new school of vocal art; a new art of voice development; a new system of vocal education and a new system of vocal therapeutics. The latter will, as in case of the Invention of the larnyngoscope, again revolutionize the treatments of all chronic diseases of the. throat, among which may be men- tioned: chronic laryngitis, pharyngitis or preachers' sore throat, partial and total loss of voice, excessive relaxed condition of the so-called vocal chords, atrophy, hardening, swelling and all catarrhal conditions of the mucous membranes of the nose, throat, pharynx and larynx, singers' nodules, stuttering and stammering. Miss Louise Burton presented four of her pupils in recital Saturday af- ternoon, June 28. A group of songs was sung by each. Miss Gertrude Burkholde, Florence Ayers, Effle Kiddie. Nada Brohlch. They Illustrat- ed the work done by Miss Burton. An informal reception followed the pro- gram, at the South Side Studio. 4519 Oak wood avenue. Chicago.
