Motto for Singers
Now for a little story that has nothing to do with Robert Schumann. Year ago the sincer Fracer
Gange, toured New Zealand with his wife, Amy Evans, who was also a magnificent singer. Mr. Gange was walking up a certain street in a certain city not a thousand miles from Petone when he saw a Chinese laundry. The thing that struck him about this laundry was the sign, which amused him very much. The name of the pro-
prietor on this sign was unintentionally a musical one-it was Sing On Kee, which is not a bad motto for all singers. (Talk by "Ebor" on Robert Schumann, in Children’s Hour, 2YA, July 15.)
