Abstract
Editor's Note: The series of short articles on this subject, begun in our February issue, is continued here by popular request. The editor is gratified that so many supervisors are finding help for their own work in the experiences of others. A word about the contributors in this issue: Dr. Earhart is known to thousands of educators and musicians as a student, thinker, writer, musician and, above all, teacher. Mr. Pitcher has for years been a leader in music education in New England, and has for two years been president of the Eastern Conference. Mr. Kendel has had a distinguished success in his work in Colorado, and has had national recognition through offices in the National Conference and through the presidency of the Southwestern Conference. Mr. Giddings is the fiery petrel of the profession, hitting hard and right from the shoulder; and anyone who has been in Minneapolis always listens when “T. P.” talks! Miss Dickerman, supervisor of music in Windsor, Conn., tells the interesting story of how one fine and earnest piece of work awakened a whole community. Mr. Carpenter is head of the music department in a large technical high school in Providence, where Walter Butterfield is supervisor of music; in two years Mr. Carpenter has established the music work in the face of conflicting difficulties. Mr. Wilson has been supervisor in Elizabeth, N. J., for a number of years and is a well-known and highly respected member of the profession. Mr. Quantz was among the first of the Canadian supervisors to ally himself to the National Conference; his work in London has won him an enviable reputation in the states.—P. J. W.
