tion of a new bill into Parliament containing
various stipulations, the object of amending the
present Act by prescribing proper recourses and
penalties not heretofore enacted with a view
to restraining any counterfeiting or unlawful
reproduction of their work and to afford them
full protection of their rights. It also sets forth
the adoption of most of the Amendments sug-
gested by the Canadian authors in memoranda
of 1921 and 1922. All of this, if acted upon,

of music study. It has been prepared by Clar-
ence G. Hamilton, Dr. Percy Goetschius, John

opens with an introduction covering the pur-
poses of the series which, in complete form,
