The plans for the seventh annual observance
of the National Week of Song are now being
made by song leaders in communities all over
the country. This event has become one of
great importance to all who love music, and
especially singing. It is the one time in the year
when the entire nation is invited to join in a
musical program, and each year since its incep-
tion it has been participated in by millions of
our people.
It has been endorsed by leaders of the Music
Supervisors' National Conference, and by leaders
of other musical organizations; by P. P. Clax-
ton, until recently United States Commissioner
of Education, by nearly every State Superin-
tendent of Schools, and a long list of city and
county superintendents, also by a host of others
interested in helping to make America a sing-
ing nation. The list includes many noted musi-
cians; in fact, all who are personally acquainted
with the aims and purposes of the movement are
in hearty sympathy with it. For this reason the
National Week of Song has been, and will con-
tinue to be, a big success.
The date set for the event is always that
week in February in which Washington's Birth-
day occurs. This year it will begin on Sunday,
February 19, and end February 25.
A detailed history of the movement and sug-
gestions for its observance can be secured by
addressing the National Week of Song, 430
South Wabash avenue, Chicago, 111., the head-
quarters of the movement.
