Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of School and Flag: A Song Book for Schools and School Assemblies, for the Family Circle, and for General and Social Occasions The finished song contains all the elements that enter into music, and is, moreover, the living expression of inmost feeling when interpreted by the pulsing tones of the human voice. Singing may be classed as a highly specialized and idealized form of language, and the principles involved in the study of spoken language and singing are practically identical. More particularly, music study makes one master of the processes that create the intelligent and independent per former; but aside from its great value as a means of intellectual discipline. It must be remembered that the ability to read music gives the power to interpret music itself, to give expression to the feelings, and to outpour the real self in sin 'c_ere helpfulness.
