What the Tribune Offers to the
Contestants in Its Educational
Contest Progress of the Contest
and Advances Made by Contestants
Yesterday Only Nine Days Left
in Which to Enter.
THE TIME was when music was
looked upon as nn ornamental
accomplishment, something nice
to have, but not essential to
v character-building, nor In any
way helping one to meet the struggles
and, realities of life. This view Is fast
becoming obsolete, and people are
awake to the fact that music Is a part
of human nature, and to have a well
rounded character one must not neglect
this branch of his education. Parents
and educators arc recognizing the re
fining influence of music. They realize
that a young man who sings has a
potent safeguard against the allure
ments of coarse company. This recog
nition Is. only the first step In the right
direction. Much more could be made
at music than Is being done. "Vocal
music is the natural product of human
nature, and Its function Is to express
rind excite feelings." "Religious song is
the voice of Hie soul." Most people pos
sess a good natural singing voice which,
by proper care and cultivation, would
inspire the highest pleasure. Moreover,
singing Is conducive to Hie best of
health, provided the vocal organs nre
properly used.
Oliver Wendell Holmes once wrote:
"Alas for those that never sing, but
die-with all their music In them."
Mr, Wooler, the subject of this sketch,
certainly will not be Included among
those whom the above quotation has
reference to, for he not only sings a
great deal, but he gives vent to his
musical nature In composition as well
as In singing.
Mr. Wooler's Musical Standing.
Mr. 'Wooler Is recognized us one of
the leading music teachers in North
eastern Pennsylvania. He is also tenor
soloist at the Elm Park church, a posi
tion which Is the first of Its kind in
Scranton. This position he has held for
almost nine years, alwnys giving the
Utmost satisfaction.
Voice Culture and Singing.
In voice culture and singing, Mr.
Wooler endeavors to make his Instruc
tion Interesting and truly educational,
ever seeking to cultivate thoughtful
ness and aesthetic appreciation by em
phasizing the beauty and expressive
power of music, vocal music especially.
He desires his pupils to become dis
criminating and independent critics of
themselves and of their work, and lie
epures no effort in bringing nbout this
result: ever striving for independence
rather than imitation. He believes that
one who understands the art of pro
ducing tones properly, will retain a
musical voice unto old age, that every
person possessing a good voice should
have It cultivated, and that persever
ance In study will bring success.
Mr. Wooler is most thorough and
painstaking in cultivating the art of
enunclntion.nrtlculatlon, perfect breath
ing, flexibility, coricct Intonation, facial
expression, posture and Interpretation.
His success as a teacher is the result
of bis conscientious work and excellent
method (as Is shown by the way In
which his pupils' voices are developed),
and an Instinctive faculty of divining
the best capabilities, with the gift of
putting those characteristics In the
most effective light before the public.
He has perfected a system based on a
careful classification of consonants and
the gradation of differently-colored
vowel-sounds, whereby the greatest
purity and resonnnco of tone, with a
perfect evenness throughout the entire
compass of the voice, is obtained.
The mode of pioductlon taught by
Mr. Wooler preserves the voice fresh
and unworn for futuie use, whilst de
veloping Its utmost sonoilty nnd carry
ing power. This Is strlltlmriv unus
able in his own voice. Ho cultivates the
different timbres of the voice so ns to
aid the singer in expression, phrasing
and diction in both florid and declama
tory singing. Among Mr. Wooler's stii
dents are some local Instructors who
ore taking advanced courses,
Mr. Wooler's Studies.
Mr. Wooler studied voice culture and
singing both In England and In this
country. His principal teachers weio
Mr. Ilobert nradley, Bradford, York
ehlre, England, and Mr. William Court
ney, New York. The following letter
was given Mr, Wooler on leaving Kng
land for this country:
Alexandra Road, Shipley, Aug, JO, 1800.
To Whom It May Concern:
Mr. Alfred Wooler studied under mo In

time he made great progress mid was

In addition to his studies In voice
culture and flinging, Mr, Wooler has
made a thorough study and litis a pro
found knowledge of the theory of mut
sic, having completed harmony, count
erpoint, canon, fugue, form and com.

Tho following lutter was recently re
ceived by tin;
July n, 1002.
It r.U'cn me genuine pleasure, to bear
testimony to Mr. Wooler's nblllty mill
musical knowledge. .Mr. Wooler went
through ii ronr-p In composition with inn
mid mastered tin1 iirt of harmony utiil
ciniiiti'i point "o thoroughly Hint he In :il

Mr. Wooler has of late given evidence

gating the subject of musical notntlon,
Its hhtory and it dlversilie-i. As a lin
ger and teacher Sir. Wooler is too well

II. A. Clarke, Mils. Doe.
Prof, of Music, rnlvorsltv of Penna..,
Philadelphia, Pa.
Mr. Wooler located In Scranton in ISM
and opened a musdc studio In the old
Powell building on Wyoming avenue.
Mr. Ilemy P. Dreyer, who is becoming
famous us a baritone vocalist, was
among his first year's implls, which
were few. Mr. Dreyer studied voice
culture' and singing under Mr. Wooler
for two years. Kach year the number
of pupils increased, until now his whole
time is almost taken up giving Instruc
tion to a large class. During the year
of 1S0S Mr. Wooler, in addition to his
own private work, was one of the
faculty of the Scrnaton Conservatory
of Music, having charge of the classes
In hlglit-singing and harmony. This po
sition he resigned to accept a similar
one In the .Tervis-liardenbergh School
of .Music, which position he held until
the fall of 1S93, when tho work In his
own studio became so extensive that
It required his whole attention: The
following letter was given to Mr.
Wooler when he resigned:
To Whom It May Concern;
Mr. Alfred Wooler taught Hight-sliigiug
and harmony In the .lerris-llnidenliergli
School of .Music dining 1SW and his woilt
was very satisfactory. We found Mr.
Wooler lo lie nn excellent musician and
a very successful teacher, who has the
faculty of lulcicHtlug his puplK le has
accomplished marked results in a com
intuitively short time.

Mr. Wooler as a Soloist.
Mr. Wooler holds an enviable posi
tion In Scranton as the leading tenor
soloist. His prollcio'ncy and popularity
are best attested by the fact that on
December 1, this year, he will begin his
tenth year at the Hint Park church.
Mr. Wooler sings In many concerts and
lias refused .several Haltering offers
from other churches in Pittsburg,
Klnilru and Now York city, lie has
also had opportunities to travel in
opera, in which he would no doubt do
well, but he has decided to make Scran
ton his home. Following arc a few of
the many press notices regarding Mr.
Wooler's concert work;
Press Notices.
"Ml. Wooler possesses tho very iiiallll
cations which go to make an enjoyahlu
vocalist. Ills voice Is pure tenor: he has
culture, arilstlo reeling, a lino phliiio
(whteh menus so much lo a professional

to ills nit for Its own sake," Svr.tciifo
Ktauilaid, February 7, IS'iT,
"Tho tenor uliwr was Mr, Alfitd

nuiHt say Hint the gciulcman acquitted

tluet enunciation, clear tones, and tho
touching pathos evidenced In his sonus,
was such as completely entranced his
audlvuce."llrailfiird Slar.Oember SI, 1SH2,
"The singing of Mr, Wooler charmed
I ho audience, ills elections giving seopo
to' dU clear and cultivated tenor voice,
Ills enunciation was distinct, which lidd
ed much to the plpasiiie of JiU listeners,"
Olcan lleiald, May 2!nt, IS92.
"Mr. Wooler, tenor, was something
grand, his full rich tones echoing musi
cally throughout the vast ecllllee," Con
dcrsport, Pa., Au, IS, Ml.-.
"Mr, Wooler lias a magnlllcenl tenor
volco of sympathetic quality, rich and
puio; and his solos weie received with a
fpontaucoilH hurst of applause (hat was
an htuie.t ti Unite of delight." Jamestown

Harmony, Counterpoint and Compo
sition, "Music limn of cultured harmony, won
for the listening, rapt, estatlc spirit, an
Insight and un entrance. Into realms which
tho outwaul eyo hath not seen," J. II.
ShorthmiHc.
Kvery musician, vocalist or Instru
mentalist should take up the study of
harmony, its It Is Impossible to attain
to the highest proilcleney nnd become
a thorough musician without u knowl
edge of Its principles. No grenter er
ror could be made than to suppose that
a knowledge of harmony Is necessary
only to those who wish to compose
music.
Every niuslo teacher should be thor
oughly ucqunlnted with this most 1m-
ortant subject
Mot slniply a knowledge of what Is
known ntt "thorough bass," or the art
of writing chords with the nld of a
llgiii-cd Imss; but rather u scientific
know-lego of music, gained through u
system of Instruction, based on the
laws nml principles which govern the
formation of sanies, chords nnil keys,
which points out their relationship mui
shows the corrupt progression and re
solution of chords! In other words, a
system that Imparts a knowledge
which enables one to analyze, classify
nnil understand music In every detail,
and which tenches hbw to put such
knowlego to practical use In composi
tion, There Is nn pvpr-lncrenslng ten
dency toward complex harmonies in
modern composition, ami In older to
comprehend and perforin theni lulell
gently one must hnvp a perfect un
derstanding of theory. To the un
initiated, the study of harmony Is gen
erally a bugbear, or Is looked upon as
n very dry subject. This need not be
the case, for under Mr. Wooler's In
Htnielloii It 'at once becomes most In
teretClng and Is enjoyed by nil of his
pupils. The studies of counterpoint
and composition- follow Hint of liar-

Mr. Wooler's Compositions.
Mr. Wooler is looked upon by most
of us us ti musical genius, but lie him
self says: "I always thought I was
lather stupid, for 1 have' to work so
hard to accomplish anything, nnd any
success I may have achieved, either
as a singer, teacher or composer, I at
tribute to hard study and work." Mr.
Wooler has a large number of unfin
ished compositions, which leccive ills
attention from time to time. He also
writes the poems to many of his songs.
The following is a list of bis composi
tions that are published:

-Mr. Wooler Is of n genial disposition.
"He is kind, but firm, and bis patience
seems cxhiiustless," Is the way one of
his pupils so tersely put It. Whin asked
how lie accounted for his great pa-

Hence, Mr, Wooler replied: "You sec,

Mr, Wooler's Studio.
In describing the studio, we might say
that It s bright, pleasant and extreme
ly artistic, and at the s.uvus time It gives
one tho Impression of business. It Is
most centrally located, being on the
second door of the Cut-tor building, t or

THE TRIBUNE OPPERS
TWO SCHOLARSHIPS
Attractive Special Howards Within
The Reach of Contestants Who
May Not Yet Have Entered.
The Tribune was pleased to Include
aiming the thirty-three special rewinds
In Its great Educational Contest two
scholui ships In Mr. Wooler's Vocal
Studio, so fully described above, as
such scholarships arc entirely new to
these contests and are particularly de
sirable. There are many young men
and women who would be glad to Itn
piove their voices If they could afford
to pay. tin' cot of tuition, but this In
stiuctlou Is too often looked upon as a
luxury and Us enjoyment Is deferred
until too late In lire.
Tin oilgh The Tilbuuc two of the
young people In Its contest will have
their tuition charges paid for an entire
year of private vocal Instruction. One
of these scholarships covers two prl-
vate lessons per week for forty weeks,
and is valued at ISO. The other is ex
actly the same except that but one les
son is given each week, and Is worth
SI3.
These scholarships, on account of the
price charged by Mr. Wooler, are well
down in the list offered by The Tribune,
but they are none the less Important
and may be selected by some contest
ants much nearer the top than they are
placed. However, they are quite within
the reach of some contestants who may
enter between now and October 1, when
the entries close. It would only take a
few points to get within the table, and
then a now beginner would have an
equal opportunity with many otheis
who are very close together in the
lower half of the table. In fact, lie
would ptobably have a better chance,
as some of these have apparently ex
hausted their l osourees. As an example
of what a beginner can do, read In the
lepuit below of what Mr. Hate's has ac
complished In the last two days.

of Moscow, scored thirty-one points
and took eleventh place away from I,.

Fred K, Gunster, of Green nidge,
brought n twelve points and materially
strengthened his good hold on eighth
place.
Dressing the Boy
Most parents delight in dressing: their boys
well. The question of style and novel effect is al
ways considered, especially in suits. Now the ques
tion' with parents is, "What's new this season ?"
A store of this size and reputation we think is best
able to answer. We have better facilities to create
