INIr. Editor is it possible that Jack

like he would be the last citizen who
would be willing to so violate the law

such a thing be possible?

NORMAL SINGING SCHOOL
AT FELLOWSHIP CHURCH.
As was stated in last weeks Jack
sonian the Normal Singing School
will begin at Fellowship church, a
bout seven miles west of Jackson on
tL% 29th of July and continue for a
term of twenty days, taught by
Prof. Jacob T. Mavo of Jockson.
Perhaps some would wish to know
the branches of study and what is to
be learned in this school. It has been
intimated that this school is not for
beginners, but for advanced students.
Let this mistake be corrected. It is
for all classes, for children and all
others who have never studied at all,
as well as for the advanced.
Instructions will begin at the A B
C of music, including a thorough and
systematic course, acquainting pu
pils with the theory and principals of
notation, Major, Miner and Chromat
ic scales, Keys, Intervals. Transposi
tions, Moiulations etc., thus enab
ling them to read music intelligently.
There will be lessons daily in Tech
nical Voice Culture, Harmony and
Composition, Sight Singing, Ear
Training, Conducting etc.
Every one who desires a greater
fun I of knowledge of music should
attend this school. It is cheap, only
$2.00 for the term, and board can be
hart in good homes for about SIO.OO
per month.
The writer has had the pleasure of
attending several sessions of “Mayo’s
School of Music,” and this being the
sixth session for this community
since 1902 is an evidence of the fact
that he is giving satisfaction. A
large enthusiastic cluss is expected,
and we urge every one who can to
meet us at Fellowship on the morn
ing of July 29th.
