Oconee Guild
Met At Church
The Wesleyan Service Guild of
the Oconee Street Methodist
Church met at the church on July
10th with Mesdames Margaret
Fannin and Goldie Richards.
Mrs. C. S. Denny welcomed
Mesdames Syble Hartley and
Doris Patton as visitors. -
Mrs. Denny presented a life
membership . certificate to the
mothers of Linda Denny and Joan
Fannin.
The devotional was presented
by Mrs. Vera Murrow who choose
for her topic, “Diligence.” Scrip
ture, Proverbs 4-23.
In diligence we find something
far beyond a busy energy that
guards and defends itself against
cncroaching evil.
The Bible says, “Guard all
things, guard your inner self, for
so you live and prosper.” Guard
your heart with all vigilance, for
thence are the well-springs of life.
Keep your heart with all diligence
for out of it are the issues of
Life. Let us be constant, unwav
ering complete in giving our
hearts to Christ to hold.
Closed with prayer-hymn: Take
my life, let it be consecrated Lord
to thee.
The program was then turned
over to the program chairman,
Mrs. Virginia Williams and Mrs.
Margaret Fannin. Their subjects
were ‘“Earths Abundance and
Man’s Stewardship,” which re
minded us that everything we
have today comes from the soil.
Mrs, Virginia Flanigen was
welcomed as a new member.
Others present were Mesdames
Mary Escoe, Ruth Evans, Leona
Seabolt, Wynelle McLeroy, Edna
Denny, Eloise Thompson, Ethel

PLAY FOR FUN, HE SAYS: Robert Whitford,

Piano Teacher Brings Revolufion
To Methods Of Insfructing Piano
By DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON—(NEA)— Now
comes the revolution in learning
how to play the piano.
No more hour-per-day practice
sessions, with the big switch in
the corner as the main inspira
tion to Junior’s music apprecia
tion.
No more do ra mi fa so la ti
do, with wvariations, until the
neighbors go raving mad.
And no more Carnegie Hall as
the magic goal to lure Junior from
the pool table to the parlor up
right.
Chief interpreter and prompter
of this revolution is fast-talking,
energetic Robert H. Whitford of
Maimi, Fla., president and foun
der of the International Piano
Teachers Association. The group,
with a total membership of 3000
teachers who claim to have 100,000
pupils, has just had its seventh
annual meeting here in the Statler
Hotel.
Says Whitford:
“The old method, of course, was
to cross all bridges before coming
to them, by practicing exercises

two prize pupils, Linda Karen Hall, 9 (with
glasses) of Forestville, N. Y., considered top child
pianist, and Janice Hall, 7, her sister,
on all of the difficulties that
might appear in pieces. But we
really do not want to learn to play
the piano. We want to learn to
play pieces on the piano. If you
practice an exercise, you have
learned an exercise. If you prac
tice a piece, you have learned a
piece. The problem is not key
pushing, but music making.”
He starts his pupils right off on
“Yankee Doodle,” as a rule. But
any other simple tune, like “Ten
Little .Indians,” is okay with him,
if that's what they want. If they
have a burning urge for boogie
woogie, that’s okay with him, too.
“If playing the piano is to be
the pleasure it should be, then the
piece must come first, last and
always,” he says.
The new attitude of most teach
ers on how much time a pupil
should practice each day is also a
drastic change from the old theo
ry, Whitford explains. Gl
Now it's 20 minutes to a half
hour for the younger ones, a half
hour to 45 minutes for the inter
mediate group, and maybe a full
hour for the older, more advanced
students. But the practicing need
not all be at one sitting. .
Another major change in piano
teaching, Whitford says, is the
goal which is set for the students.
It used to be, he admits, that
teachers constantly prodded their
pupils toward the concert stage,
or a commercial career of play
ing, regardless of what kind of
talent they had. Today the only
motive is to get the youngsters in
terested in playing for the fun of
it, and to learn to enjoy playing.
Only when a pupil shows extra
ordinary talent, nowadays, does a
teacher suggest that he consider
making a career out of the piano.
e -9 *
Whitford says this approach {is
attracting more students than ever
before. It's also keeping them in
terested longer, and at the same
time producing just as high a
percentage of good artists, he
claims.
He thinks the average person
can learn to play good, parlor
type music in about three years
under the new system.
_Whitford, who also composes
and publishes music, has himself
a kind of side revolution going on
in music publishing. He advocates
the elimination of sharps and flats
for easier reading. A flat note
would be diamond-shaped. There
wouldn't be any sharps.
However, he admits this revo
lution might take a hundred or so
years to accomplish.
