Model School Notes
After a two-weeks' holiday the pupils of the practice school have returned to work. So many are ill that the attendance is small this week, but all classes have been resumed, and the new work in industrial arts was begun with enthusiasm. This new departure in the arts, made under the direction of Miss Leach and Miss Thomas, marks the latest progressive step in education.
The new piano is a source of pleasure to the whole school. This instrument, and another which has been received by the School of Music, is a novelty called a big-little piano. It is built low enough for a teacher to be able to see over it while playing and the direct her school or chorus. Notwithstanding its small size, it has the volume and resonance of a full-size upright. The scale and plane of construction were worked out by N. Otto Miessner, an American pianist, composer and lecturer. The model school has long wished for an instrument and is now very well pleased with such a good one.
