, LESSON—NO 4.
From the preceding lesson I infer that
there are keys in music, and that they
are located upon those letters represent
ing the sounds in music*
Ans. VV e have two keys in music call
ed major nnd minor keys,‘or scales.
Have those keys any natural location
or place upon the staff?
They have, viz—A, it th® natural let
ter for the minor key, aud the letter C for
the major key.
Which note is it. that stands between
those keys ?
The Me stands directly between the
keys in each and every example.
Then the fiist letter below the me is j
always taken for the minor key and the
first above for the majir key, J presume.
J That is the precise position of thelwo
keys, in each and every transposition or
removal of the me.
When the letter B is flat and the me
placed upon the letter E, what letters ar
the keys placed upon ?
D is the letter lor the minor key, and
F, for the iTit’jor key. i
When the ine is upon A by two flats, J
what letters give the keys ?
I'he letter G gives tire minor, and B
the major key.
When the me is on D. by three inser
tion of the flats, where are the keys!
found ? “ |
The letter C, is minor, and E. for the
m jor key.
When the me is on the letter G hy
lour m>eitious of the flit, where are the
keys found or placed ? j
F is the letter for the minor,and A lot:
the major key.
When the me is upon F, by one sharp
how stand the keys ? j
E. is the minor and G the maj r.
W hen F and C are sharp, where are
the keys ?
B minor aud D major.
When the me is on G by three sharps,
bow stands the keys ?
The letei F is minor, and A for the
major key*
When F, C, G and Dare sharp, where
are the keys ?
C minor, and E major.
How far apart are the keys ?
Only a third, there being but one letter
between them.
How may each sound or number be
numbered from the key ?
By the distance ot the letter it occupies
from the key letter or principal sound of .
the scale.
What is the difference between the
two keys ?
The diff tence between the two keye
is. that in the maj >r mode the semitone*
occui between the thiid and fourth, and
! 7'h and Bth sounds from the k**y. and in
| the minor mode, between No-. 2&> 3, sod
5 & 9 from the key of the same.
Has the semitones natural location* in
the scales?
They hove, and their natural places are
bntwe* n the letters B & C, and E & F;
and always occurting between me law,
and law saw, in each transposition ot the
me.
What are semitones ?
They are half degrees or steps in the
voice.
What are tones ?
They are full degrees or steps of the
: voice.

A father whose son was addicted to
some vicious propensities, bade the boy
to dtive a nnil into a certain post when

agreed that a nail should be drawn out
whenever he corrected an error. In thO
course of time the post was completely
