ABSTRACTAn overview of early country school music and music
education in the Mountain Plains region of America providesimpresssions gained from texts, journals, official records, andpersonal interviews. Music is portrayed as a socializer to engendercommunity spirit, an enhancement of patriotism, a means toenculturateto the "American way of life," a symbol of validation,and an accompaniment for rhythmic activities. Covered are: schoolcommunity activities; scholastic aspects of music in country schools;teacher and student roles in the instructional process; instrumentalmusic; technology (grammophone, victrola, radio); and music texts andsong literature employed in schools during the late 19th and early20th centuries. An examination of music functions, via an analysis ofverbal and music content of 55 songs, shows that song texts can becategorized according to "six key word factors" (joy, kindness/love,nature, religion, school, and work/diligence). Analytical statementsconcerning each song are concluded with the initial letters of thekey word factors which applied. Conclusions show songs wereconsistently employed for inculcating and enculturating students withthe dominant society; song values'4entered on factors identified;song materials were the equivalents of McGuffey's readers; andmusical qualities reinforced basic simple values.

She looked at the line of children. There, the very first inline was Georgie Bailey, his bright blue gaze fixed expectant-ly upon her. "How did you get them in? Did you just say, comein, children? Or --"
"What are we going to sing?" Georgie asked.
"Sing?"
"We always march in singing."
And so the year began with "Onward Christian Soldiers." Class
adjourned that way, too. (Marion Cockrell, The Revolt ofSarah Perkins, New York: David McKay, 1965)
This paper is meant to provide an overview of early country school
music and music education in the mountain-plains region of America. The
first section is an informal amalgam of impressions gained from the
sources listed in the bibliography, including texts, journals, official
reports and personal interviews. Part II is comprised of a more formal
analysis of the song materials useci in the country schools, and will
focus particularly on material from the last half of the 19th century
and the early 20th century, when the frontier was moving westward across
the Mountain Plains region. The analysis will be concerned with the
verbal, musical and functional elements of the selected sampling of
songs, and among other things will emphasize the use of music in the
enculturation and Americanization of various frontier ethnic groups--in
keeping with the then prevalent "melting pot" theory.

Part I
Music in the Country Schools: An Impressionistic Narrative
Music seems to have been a part of many country schools' activities
f..-om the earliest time forward. Often, particularly at first, it was
not regarded as a curricular subject to be studied for its own sake, not
as a "basic" in the sense of "readin', writin' and rhythms," but it soon
was recognized as a basic in a more direct, functional sense. It was
employed as a socializer to engender a community spirit of oneness and
belonging in the students (and during the weekend or evening activities,
it did the same for their elders as well). It was employed as a means
of enculturation to the "American way of life" for the ethically diverse
populations found on the frontier. It was used as an entertainment, as
an enjoyable change of pace from other kinds of school activities.
Often it was used as a symbol of validation--to officially open the
school day with a song. And at other times it was simply used to accom-
pany a march around the eassroom, which during cold weather was done
not so much for rhythmic activity as in an effort to keep the students'
feet from freezing. Thus music, probably less for aesthetic purposes
and more for functional reasons, found its way into frontier country
schools from the earliest of times.
Before detailing various aspects of music as a curricular and
extracurricular activity in the mountain-plains country schools, it may
be appropriate to recognize that music served to enhance many community
activities in the schools as well. It is an established fact that
country schools were (and in some cases still arc) the community centers
of their time; and many of the activities carried on as a part of this
function involved, if not featured, music.
3
Country school community centers provided the setting for meetings
(which often were introduced with a patriotic song, or had a musical
intermission by a school performing group); talks, lectures speeches
(which programs also were often introduced or interspersed with music);
picnics (with sing-alongs and other musical entertainments); box socials
and cakewalks (wherein a musical game determined who got what food--and
partner); patriotic celebrations (often involving appropriatel3, patrio-
tic songs, and combining several of the aforementioned activities);
worship and revival services, plays, dramas (all of which could involve
appropriate music); dances (wherein folk and ethnic musical styles often
domilated); and a variety of other activities, not the least of which
were musical concerts themselves. This last category, like some of the
aforementioned, might involve noted artists such as Jenny Lind travel-
ling the concert circuit under the auspices of P.T. Barnum, or more
commonly, local talent.
Obviously, such activities involved various segments, and often all
of the community. In the following sections the focus will return to
the more scholastic aspects of music in the country schools. These will
include consideration of the roles of teachers and students in the
instructional process; the matter of instrunental music; technology in
the form of the grammophone, victrola, radio, etc; and finally the
matter of music texts and the all important song literature employed in
the schools. This last area will lead to Part II and a formal-
functional analysis of a sampling of songs used in the country schools.
Teachers tended to play, sing, and /or teach music according to
their individual abilities. As early as the 1860's teachers' institutes
encouraged special attention "to the science of music" (The Kansas
4
Educational Journal, Vol. 6, Oct. 1869, page 138). Singing as a part of
daily opening exercises was so common as to be virtually a standard part
of tne curriculum. However, beyond that point, the quantity and quality
of music activity in the schools varied a great deal--mostly with the
abilities of the teacher.
Prior to the second or third decade of the twentieth century, very
few teacher preparation programs gave much if any attention to music
education. If the teacher had not developed skills or taken lessons on
his or her own, he or she simply would not have much to offer the stu-
dents in the way of music instruction. At times, however, such circum-
stances were alleviated by the contributions of musically experienced
people in the community. Occasionally even an older student, possibly
someone who had had the opportunity to take some lessons from a "pro-
fessor" (private music teacher), would assume responsibility for some
music activities in the school.
By the 1920's there are accounts of music specialists serving the
rural schools of a country. In many cases each school was visited only
once or twice a month, during which time some intensive instruction took
place, and plans for follow-up instruction were made with the local
teacher. In one instance it was reported that the circuit riding music
teacher travelled by horseback; and in another case, the teacher went
over hill and dale, in sun and gale, via her bicycle. Travelling music.
specialists became more common toward the middle of the twentieth cen-
tury. Specialists aside, one county superintendent reported favoring
teachers who possessed some music competencies in the hiring process for
rural schools. Others encouraged thier teachers to take a general music
methods course.
While most of the early music instruction centered on vocal and
rhythmic activities, instrumental groups soon sprang up and were incor-
porated into school programs. At times musically experienced country
school teachers also taught private lessons, or a student learned from
dad, using his fiddle, from mom, from the church organist, or from a
"professor" if such a person was available and affordable. In any
event, enterprising teachers would help the instrumentally experienced
young people it the schools band together into performing groups. These
often were called orchestras, even if they had only one orchestral
string instrument or only a guitar or mandolin. If there were no
strings of any kind, only winds and percussion, they were called bands,
even if membership numbered only four or five.
Late in the first quarter of the twentieth century there are re-
ports of schools combining their bands to form larger groups for more
exciting musical activities and events. In the second quarter of the-
century there are reports of accordion bands; and apparently tonette
ea:embles and rhythm bands were quite popular at this time as well, when
teachers felt able to organize them. Eventually those districts that
could afford music specialists had some more formal instruction in
instrumental music; however, v cal music remained the backbone of the
general music program. Some s ols even produced operettas on a yearly
basis, and many participated in massed song festivals.
Primary accompanying instruments for music activities in the rural
schools were organs and pianos. From what can be gather'd concerning
relative use, it appears that organs competed effectively with pianos
and might actually have been more common in the nineteenth century
(pianos having only been devised in the late eighteenth century). One
6
interviewee mentioned a story about how a giant box social provided the
entire financing for the purchase of an organ for the school. However,
of Vile twentieth century the heavier, metal framed
the piano had completed the trek across the American
the end of the first quarter of the century most of the
country schools hid such an instrument. Even player pianos were found
with the coming
monster known as
Frontier, and by
in some school/Settings, so skilled or not, people could put on, pump
out and sing a'ong with the rolls of the latest popular music.
The next technological advance to influence music education in the
country schools of the frontier was the grammaphone-record player. Many
interviewees report the use of Sousa marches which were early "hit-
parade" favorites around the turn of the century. As mentioned earlier,
these were used on cold days when teachers had children march around the
room to warm their half-frozen feet; but also when children were rest-
less during stormy weather and needed physical activity; to teach
"beats" and rhythms, and just for fun listening. Soon, in addition to
marches and other popular forms, classical music recordings became
available. The "classics" provided the basis for music appreciation
classes in the rural schools. They also provided a basis for the "music
memory" contests which became popular later on, and in which many rural
school children participated.
Radio was readily adapted to music instruction for country schools.
Shortly after network radio bacame effective in the 1920's, music educa-
tion programs were being broadcast to rural areas. Orien Dailey of
Wichita, Kansas was a pioneer in the desiLlopment of such prugrams. They
were broadcast once or several times a week and involved listening to
music, singing along, learning the names of notes, lines and spaces,
scales, etc. In time, supplementary music booklets were available for
use by the teachers and students during and between broadcasts. Thus
the expertise of a master music teacher became available to many rural
schools via the airwaves.
Of the various types of music literature mentioned in the foregoing
sections, the most common is song literature. The Lamar, Colorado Arbor
Day Program of April 16, 1892 included the following: "Marching Through
Georgia," ."Columbia, Gem of the Ocean," "Rally Round the Flag," and
"Yankee Boy." It was mentioned in various interviews that in many
schools it was not unusual to spend at least 15 minutes a day singing
from song books. Children memorized patriotic songs, rounds, folk and
country tunes, as well as "silly songs" and popular ballads. Immigrant
children sang the same music as native children in the schools. Even
children of parents who generally spoke a language other than English
learned the English songs, and no rep.rts indicated that pupils learned
songs in other languages. This would probably have been regarded as
contrary to the principles of the great "melting pot." This does not
mean that songs of ethnic heritage were not learned and transmitted. It
is just that they generally were not employed as a part of school activi-
ties (except possibly it a most solidly ethnic community). Such music
was generally learned in the home, or at dances and other social func-
tions.
[It might be interesting to note that the music scores and song
books used in the Mountain-Plains region employed round notes from the
very first, rather than shape notes. This is of significance because
shape notes were largely a southern tradition, whereas round notes were
espoused by Lowell Mason of Boston music education fame. The general
o
8
influence of shape notes went no further north or west than Missouri, a
slave state at the time. It could not penetrate Kansas, in part due to
the Boston influence of the New England Immigrant Aid Society which sent
settlers and helped bring the territory into the Union as a free state.]
Several specific song titles mentioned by interviewees include:
"What a Friend We Nave in Jesus" (and many other religious hymn-tunes,
particularly in the early days); "America;" "Home Sweet Home;" "Stars
and Stripes Forever" (words were sung to the trio); "Red River Valley;"
"Jaunita;" "sop Goes the Weasel;" "Row, Row, Row Your Boat;" "It's a
Long Way to Tipperary:" "You're a Grand Old Flag;" "Blest be the Tie
that Binds;" "Battle Hymn of the Republic;" and "America the Beautiful."
Such songs functioned in many ways, but several of the most signif-
icant functons in the frontier school setting were the Americanization
(enculturation) of ethnic groups, the engendering of the American spir-
it, the uniting of a multi-cultural natipn, and the enhancement of
patriotism. Other common topics and functions were the transmission of
religious-spiritual attitudes and beliefs, personal values, interper-
sonal relationships, as well as feelings for the beauties of the land
and the wonders of nature.
Part II following will examine these functions via an analysis of
the verbal and musical content of a sampling of some older and more
obscure (to us, today) songs. These have been selected from music books
which were in use during the latter half of the ninteenth century and
the early part of the twentieth century--as the frontier moved through
the Mountain-Plains region.

Part II
Songs in the Frontier Schools: A Sampling and Analysis
Music books, primarily song books, followed the frontier schools
westward. The following resolution was passed at the Coffey County,
Kansas Teachers' Institute in 1869:
Resolved, that we give special attention, so far aspracticable, to the science of music--to become familiar withits principles ourselves, and to teach the same in our commonschools--and further, that we recommend to our teachers theuse of "Blackman's Graded School Songs" in the schools of this
county. (The Kansas Education Journal, Vol. 6, Oct. 1869, p.
138)
There is substantial reason to believe that the texts from which
examples were taken were actually used in the schools of the region be-
cause (a) the aforementioned songs a.._ in them; and (b) they were found
)
and collected in the region. Th texts currently reside in the Kansas
Historical Collection in Music ducation, University of Kansas, Law-
rence. The first several songs have been selected for analysis by
virtue of the fact that they were considered for use in the production
of the film which is a part of the Country Schools Legacy project, and
this should make them of some special interest.
Part II concludes with listings of song titles which serve to
expand on the song analyses and provide a broader sampling of the types
of song topics which were employed in the early music texts of the
contry schools.

Text
4
The lyrics and thee_ simple rhyming scheme are very orderly, re-
flecting the theme of the song: Nature's simple, revitalizing bea4,ies
and order are reflected the dawning of each new day. The text is a
very positive one ("We come...With faces blithe and gay,"); and extolls
the glories of the natural environment.
Music
The musical form is as regular and orderly as the text, being
strictly comprised of six two-measure phrases. These pair off nicely
into three sets, providing a straight-forward ABC form. The harmony is
based on simple I,IV,V chords and the melody echoes this simplicity by
adhering almost exclusively to the natural chord (arpeggio) and scale
tones. Ikhythmi.cally the piece reflects the 'same principles, having a
perfectly symetrical AABBAA rhythmic format.
Functions*
Communication: The song espouses a love of nautre and the beauty of the
natural environment and order of things.
Emotional Expression: The song is a hiely positive expression about
life, the renewal of life, and,6e-place of existence.
Enforcing conformity to social norms: The work (as well as play) eti.c
is espoused in a highly positive manner.
Contribution to the integration of society: The song extolls the abun-
dance and beauties of the land which are common bonds for the
various ethnic groups which share them.
11
Aesthetic Engjoyment: The words and music reflect a valuing for the
orderly progression of simple beauties, and should stimulate some
enjoyment and appreciation particularly for those of a "classical"
nature.
Note: In the rilm, this piece could function as background for the
opening scene wherein youngsters are making their way to school in
the early morning.

"Gentle Rain"
J. R, Murray
Blackman, 0., and Whittemore, EE, and Blackman; 0., Graded Singers:
Book Three.* Cincinnati: John Church Co., 1973, p. 71.
Text
Each of the two verses of this brief but cheerful song has six
phrases, with regul=ar accent points in each phrase. The rhyming scheme
is a simple ABAACC. Frontier-agrarian values abound as the gentle rain
is called upon to "make our meadows bright," bless the fields, and cool
the earth. The spiritual element is acknowledged with rain equated to a
Gift of our dear Father's love."
Music
The stylistic marking for this song is "cheerfully," and the melody
gives a "running" feeling with two notes per beat most of the time. The
lighthearted effect is enhanted by several "skipping" figures (dotted
eight-sixteenth notes). The melodic form is a simple ABC, or could even
be construed as ABA-variation. This little tune is treated in a more
interesting harmonic manner than most simple songs. The first and third
sections have three part harmony (though the entire song could be done
in unison). The second an third lines move together and at times quite
independently from the meludy. The second section has the melody singing
two measures alone, echoed by the other voices in unison; Musically the
harmonic aspect is the most Interesting factor, and includes a super-
tonic chord as well as secondary dominants. The high points or climax
of the song occurs at the end of the third last measure with a fermata
(hold) on the key words "love" and "shower."
*For "Grammar, Intermediate for District Schools."
14
Functions
Emotional Expression: The song engenders happiness and a positive,
thankful attitude.
Entertainment and Aesthetic Enjoyment: The harmonic and rhythmic
aspects' lend life and musical interest to the song.
Communication: The song clearly expresses an appreciation for
rain, a high regard for nature in general, and a thankful
attitude toward God.
Contribution to the Continuity of Culture and the Integration of
Society: The song expresses common values in terms of what
was important in the rural frontier society--good rain, a
cheerful, positive attitude toward life and nature, and a
thankful reliance on God.

Words: Mrs. H.F. Osborne; Music, Unknown
Backman, 0., and Whittemore, E.E., Graded Singers: Book One.* Cincin-
nati: The John Church Cr., Approximately 1873, p. 65.
Text
The text is an expression of a group of children's welcome to
family and friends on the occasion of a school program. A number of
values and attitudes are conveyed, e.g., "Kind friends and dear par-
ents;" "good lessons;" "make us submissive and gentle, and kind;" "for
learning, we know, is more precious than gold;" "and thus lay up trea-
sures in mansions above;" etc. The song also begs the audiences' indul-
gence: "Remember we are all quite young; You'll pardon our blunders."
The meter is extremely steady and the rhyming scheme is a simple
AABBCCDD for each of the two verses.
Music
The melodic line is simple and clear, so as to enhance but not
obscure the simple but important communication of the words. The piece
is in three-quarter time with each phrase beginning on the third count
of a measure. Virtually everything moves at a steady quarter note pace
except that every phrase ending is a half note. The melodic structure
might be termed A,B,A,C,B (var.), B (var.), A (var.), D, but the real
unifying element is the continual repetition of 10 quarter notes follow-
ed by a half note. The harmony is not provided in this test, but very
obviously can be accounted for by basic I, IV, V chords--except for the
cadence half way through: In the fourth phrase there is a modulation,
*For "Primary Schools and Juvenile Classes."
17
involving a secondary dominant, to the dominant. This is the only point
of any musical sophistication in the piece, and lends a nice bit of
variety. The original key returns immediately at the beginning of the
next phrase via a phrase modulation.
. Functions
Emotional Expression: The song expresses earnest good wishes and
fond good wishes, love and friendship.
Entertainment: It is an entertaining way to introduce a school
program and provide basic information.
Communication: Introductory remarks and cautions, goals ani good
will are all being communicated as noted in the preceding
"Text" section.
Physical Response: This is not a major function, but the repeti-
tive, basic three-quarter rhythm will most likely cause a bit
of toe tapping or rhythmic body movement.
Enforcing Conformity to Social. Norms: As cited in the earlier
"Text" section, many values and virtues of the society are
recounted (including the values of education), and by being
set to music, they tend to become more memorable and ingrained
as well as more acceptable (according to recent research).
Validation of Social Institutions (the School); Contribution to
Continuity and Stability of Culture; and Contribution to the Inte-
gration of Society are important and all operative functions too,
by virtue of the above.

"The School Bell"
Words: Mrs. F.A. SAfford; Music: H.R. Palmer
Whittemore, E.E., and Blackman, A., Graded Singers: Book Three.* Cin-
cinnati: John Church Cr., 1973, p. 76.
Text
The four lines of each of the two verses are based on the identical
accent pattern: (rest) The rhyming scheme is a simi-
larly regular and simple AAEB. In this sense the form and the content
of the verses is very consistent and mutually reinforcing, because the
message is a simple, positive and forthright sermon on the pleasures of
the work ethic, e.g., it is good to begin on time; to please the teach-
er; the happiness of being praised; leave play 'til work is done (or
school is over); don't waste time; keep busy.
Music
The four very regular antecedent and consequent phrases of the song
are arranged it a simple, straight forward chorale style. The unim-
posing solid melody with its very typical AABA form enhances but does
not distract from the message of the words. The harmony, though in only
three parts, is in typical "Bach chorale style," and the steadily moving
quarter note rhythm is enlivened by passing eighth notes every couple of
measures, in the typical Baroque manner.
Functions
Communication: The most obviouL, function of this song is didactic.
It is meant to teach the principles of what is commonly termed
"the Protestant work ethic." The pleasant musical setting is
meant to enhance teceptivity to the message as well as to
enhance memory of it.
*For "Grammar, Intermediate, or District Schools."

Enforcing Conformity to Social Norms; and Contribution to the
Integration of Society: .The work ethic was vital to survival
on the frontier; and persons will be happy and welcome in the
community if they are good contributors.
Contribution to Continuity and Stability of Culture: The song
makes clear that 411 should contribute their efforts to keep
the community vital, stable and a happy place to be.

"Try, ry Again"
George A. Veazie
McLaughlin, J.M., and Gilchrist, W.W., The New Educational Music Course.
(Teachers' Edition). Boston: Ginn & Company, 1904, pp. 98-99.
Text 411
Both the first section rhyming scheme of AABB and the second sec-
tions' AAABBB are interspersed with repetitions of the phrase "Try
again." The message is straight forward: All should heed that regard-
less of the difficulty of the task, if not successful at first, keep
trying; perserverance; it is no disgrace to fail as long as you try
again.
Music
The melody is as simple and straight forward as the message:MI
Virtually all movement is stepwise, and straight quarter notes are the
basis for the rhythmic movemedt. In fact, the end of the third line is
a simple descending scale. The harmony too is basically I, IV, V,
interspersed with an occasional diminished chord, ninth chord and secon-
dary dominant. This all serves to set the mood for and point up the
simplicity of the repeated phrase "Try Again!"
Functions lik
Communication: The didactic function is basic here. Teaching,
communicating the message that perserverence is of great value
is the primary purpose of the song.
Symbolic Representation is employed by example: "Try again" is
repeated again and again.
Enforcing Conformity to Social Norms: Trying and persevering are
the values or norms which were important on the frontier and
.._.
this song drives the message home through repetition.
23
Contributions to the Continuity and Stability of Culture and to the
Integration of Society: Willingness to try to accomplish, and
to persevere at difficult tasks was essential to stable exis-
tance in frontier societies. The song persuades toward such
stability, and stresses that all should heed--so the group may
be unified and integrated in its social behavior.
Note: This might provide some useful background in the film section oa
ethnic groups.

"Thirteen Were Saved"
or "Nebraska's Fearless Maid"
(Song of the Great Blizzard 1888)
Words and Music by Wm. Vincent
Published as Sheet Music by Lyon & Healy, Chicago, 1888
The text tells of an incident which took place in January of 1888
during a blizzard which wracked the Northwest and central region of the
United States. As reported in the Omaha Special, Miss Minnie Freeman,
the "plucky little teacher" at Mina Valley, Nebraska, saved her 13
pupils by leading them through the blizzard to a house three-quarters of
a mile away--after the door, windows and roof of the school were blown
away. She did this through the device of tying the children into a line
with a length of twine, thus keeping them from getting lost in the
blinding snow. The story is told in verse having the simple, basic AABB
rhyming scheme. The repair is sung twice between each of the three
verses, and at the cmd.
Music
The melodic format of the musical setting follows on ABAC form for
the verse and an ABCD phrase structure for the refrain (wherein C is
based simply on an ascending scale and D on the descending scale). The
harmony remains very simply I, IV, V oriented with the main point of
variety being a modulation to the relative minor (F major to D minor)
for the second part of the verse. The actual unifying factor (in light
of the lack of melolic repetition other than repeats themselves) is the
dotted eighth-sixteenth note pattern which permeates the entire piece.
This pattern is generally associated with agitation, excitement and
26
lively motion. Therefore, it is particularly well suited as an accom-
paniment to the exciting tale of the "plucky maid" and her class.
Function
Communication: A primary use for this music is to tell and pre-
serve the story of the fearless maid. The song is also em-
ployed to communicate the general concept that frontier teach-
er. had to be brave and resourceful people.
Emotional Expression: The song is used to convey the excitement of
the described situation as well as the admiration for its
subjects.
Entertainment: Inasmuch as the song involves a tale of danger and
adventure, it served the function of entertaining many people,
particularly at the time of the incident.
Validation of Social Institutions: In its treatment of the fron-
tier school teacher, the song validates the work of such
persons and the school in society.
Note: This might provide some useful background music in film
sections dealing with winter and hardship on the frontier.

"Faith, Hope and Love"
Ch. H. Rinck
McLaughlin, J.M., and Gilchrist, W.W., The New Educational Music Course
(Teachers' Edition). Boston: Ginn & Company, 1904, p. 86.
Text
The text of this song is formulated in the traditional hymn for
worship style, replete with words such as "thee" "thou" and "thy." Each
of the three brief verses is very symmetrically arranged, with an AAAA
rhyming scheme. Each verse is a clarification of and elaboration on its
inital word (faith, hope, and charity). The text is a strong express-
ion of some of the most basic of Christian tenets. (Many hymns and
chorales are found in song books up to the turn of the century. Their
quantity tends to fall off after that.)
Music
The musical form is that of a simple but sturdy chorale. As such
it serves to reflect the basic tenets of the text, and the essential
lifestyle of the frontier and the people who helped America grow. The
simplicity and sturdiness is reinforced in the melody which is comprised
of four two-bar phrases, each having the same rhythmic scheme (six
quarter notes and a half note) and each concluding with a descending
cadence. Such repetition adds to the simple, straight forward and study
effect of "truth."
Functions
Communication: The song tends to illuminate the basic meanings of
faith, hope, and charity, and as such serves a didactic func-
tion. There is ample research evidence that facts and im-
pressions set to congruent music tend to be remembered more
effectively than verbal communication alone.
31
Emotional expression: While information is imparted feelings are
influenced as well ("deep darkness," "dark dangers," and "hold
us long").
Symbolic representation: symbolic phrases such as "burning
bright," "life's fleeting race," and "our anchor strong" are
effectively reinforced in the musical setting. This is espec-
ially true of the strong anchor symbol.
Validation of social institution and religious rituals: The tradi-
tional choral style of the music and the religious connota-
tions of the text serve this function admirably.
Contribution to the continuity and stability of culture: Tenets of
the common Christian ethic were basic to American culture and
the "melting pot" processing of immigrants.
Aesthetic Enjoyment: Both music and words provide a simple but
strong and somewhat feelingful formal statementone which
could be appreciated by anyone on the classical to mildly
romantic part of the aesthetic values continuum.
Note: In the film this piece could function as background for a court-
ing scene involving attendant.e of church services--in early days
the only allowable occasions for dates according to some community
rules.

"Death of Lincoln"
Words: Pauliaa, Melody: Scotch Tune
Blackman, 0., and Whittemore, E.E., Graded Singers: Book One.* Cincin-
nati: The John Church Co., approximately 1873, p. 67.
Text
The words employed in the text are of the old English type, or
might still be found in some religious verses: thou, thee, thy, weal,
woe, etc. This gives a hallowed flavor to the lyrics which honor Lin-
coln or the "nation's father, friend;" "strong in word, and deed, and
prayer," "whc didst God's chosen lead," and "hast the people freed."
The form of the text is classically symmetrical and simple. Each of the
three verses has eight balanced phrases, with a rhyming scheme of
AAABCCCB.
Music
The melody is as classically symmetrical as the text: There are
three measures of half-quarter followed by a dotted half, and this
pattern repeats twice before the fourth varies to two measures of half-
quarter and two of dotted half. The second half of the melody Is iden-
tical to the first half described above. The form, in two phrase units,
is A,B,A (transposed), B. The ultimate unifying element is the simple
half-quarter rhythm which permeates the tune. No harmony is provided,
but the tune could easily be accommodated by simple I, IV, V chords.
*For "Primary Schools and Juvenile Classes."
34
Functions
Emotional Expression: "We bend O'er they grave-sod;" Griefs that
darkly swell;" "the martyred dead;" etc.
Communication: The song tells the story of Lincoln's heroism and
death that all may share in its meaning.
Symbolic Representation: Word meanings aside, the structure of the
text and music, in their classical formality, symbolically
enshrine Lincoln in a classical setting not unlike that of the
Lincoln Memorial in Washington.
Enforcing Conformity to Social Norms: The song strongly promotes
the worth and importance of freedom.
Contribution to the Integration of Society: The song stresses the
fact that Lincoln freed people and "didn't God's chosen lead
thru 'a sea, ah! red indeed! Some Southern people still
resist the idea that the Union supporters were God's chosen,
and there is little doubt the song found more widespead favor
in the northern states than the Southern States. However, it
certainly functio,ld to integrate immigrants, many of whom
were escaping oppression in their homelands, into the American
value system, enculturating them with history and a hero.

"For Absent Friends"
A. Mary A.B. Dobson
Ripley, F.H., and Tapper, T. Melodic Second Reader. New York: Ameri-
can Book Co., 1906, p. 128-129.
Text
The text is patterned in a clear and simple ABABCDCD rhyming
scheme. It expressed the feeling of and probably is included here
particularly for the benefit and understanding of immigrant members of
the community. Paraphrase: As evening comes out thoughts go to loved
ones on other shores in distant lands. Though it is not totally a song
of worship and supplication to God, it is for the most part so. Para-
phrase: They pray for us so you may keep us strong and true in our new
land, as we pray for them. 0 glorious shepherd of thy sheep, watch over
us all with everlasting love until we are reunited in peac. Thus
two-thirds of the text would be totally appropriate in a church hymnal.
Such expressions, along with church hymns themselves, were common up to
the publication of this book. They gradually became less common during
the ensuing years.
Music
Formally the song is in two parts. After a four meausre intro-
duction, the first part, structured AB, is set in a minor mode. A two
measure-interlude and the second part, structured CC., are set in the
relative major key. Harmonic interest is enlived uy several secondary
dominent and diminished seventh chords, as well as an occasional pedal-
paint. Rhythmically the tune moves at a moderate quarter and eight note
pace, with the predominant unifying pattern being two quarter notes, a
dotted quarter and an eighth note. The music is essentially in chorale
style, in keeping with the severent, hymn-like atmosphere of the text.
33
37
Functions
Emotional Expression: Love, longing and supplication are the
themes. Aesthetic Enjoyment: The text is poetic and the
music has some feelingful reinforcements for it--in addition
to some interesting formal and harmonic nuances.
Communication: The text communicates feelings for loved ones and
progress to God.
Conformity to social norms, and Validation of Religious Rituals are
functions which are operative inasmuchas, even when being
integrated into a new society, :t is proper to remember and
pray for your parents and friends who have been left behind- -
and the hymn-like setting of both the text and chorale help to
validate the religious aspect of such behavior.
Contribution to continuity, stability and integration of the soci-
ety are served for the same reasons. The stabilizating-
integration function is effective because the song provides an
acceptable outlet and catharsis for the loneliness and/or
longing which were shared by many in the urban immigrant as
well as the rural frontier communities.

"Fatherland"
Franz Abt.
Blackman, 0., and Whittemore, E.E. Graded Singers: Book Four.* Cin-
cinnati: John Church & Co., 1873, p. 47.
Text
The text tells of noble pride in the homeland, and also that "'Tis
from noble deeds of duty that a nation's blessing comes," so let us keep
our vows of patriotism in time when saftey fades and sorrow looms. "all
our success comes from Heaven....Let thine arm shield from harm, Lord,
our Oftherland." The atmosphere is that of a hymn of praise, resolu-
tion to duty, and supplication to God. The "thee's" and "thy's" rein-
force the religious feeling, and apparently at this time in America's
history, there was no problem in publishing and using song texts which
united feelings of God and country in a very spiritual manner. The
rhyming scheme is a well-balanced and straight forward AABCBCDD(DD).
Music
The musical setting is in a hymn-chorale style which serves to
enhance the reverent atmosphere of the text. The four part harmony is
quite basic within the chorale tradition, and replete with many moving
voices, not unlike the Bach chorale style. The melodic format is essen-
tially ABBCC, and the unifying, recurring rhythmic figure is dotted
quarter note, eighth note,- half note (or quarter note-quarter rest or
note in place of the half note).
*For "High Schools, Conventions, Choirs and All Classes and Choruses of
Male and Female Voices Combined."
3
40
Functions
Emotional Expression: Patriotism and praise for the homeland are
intermingled with pleas of supplication to God for its preserva-
tion.
Aesthetic Enjoyment: Repetitive factors in the text and setting
along with moving voices in the harmonization are probably the
most functional aesthetic aspects for most hearers.
Communi-:ation: The song communicates ideas and feelings of patriot-
ism and prayer.
Conformity to Social Norms: The soag reminds people of duties to
the fatherland, as well as the pride and joys which spring
from loya'ay to it.
Validations of Social Institutions and Religious Rituals are served
ty the formal, reverent and generally appealing text and music
of the song.
Continuity stability and integration of the society are all served
as everyone's benefits and duties are extolled.

Part III
AN ANALYSIS OF THE VALUES EXPRESSED IN AN 1873
MUSIC EDUCATION SONG TEXTBOOK
(A Country School Legacy: Humanities on the Frontier Project)
Paul A. Haack
Introduction
As the title implies, this country school_legacy special research project
was concerned with an analysis of the song text material found in Part I of
Graded Singers, Book I, for Primary Schools and Juvenile Classes, by 0. Blackman
and E.E. Whittemore (Cincinnati, C 'o: The John Church Company, 1873). The 55
songs which constitute Part I of this text were intended. for use in the first
three grades of the elementary school. Several rote learning songs constitute
Part II of the text and contain similar textual content in terms of the
values expressed. This text along with its companion volumes for the higher
grades, Books II, III and IV, may be found in the "Kansas Historical
Collection in Music Education" of the Department of Art and Music Education
and Music Therapy, Bailey Hall, The Univerisity of Kansas, Lawrence.
In the preliminary analysis it was found that the song texts under study
could generally be categorized according to six topics or "key word factors,"
each of which appeared in at least ten of the fifty-five songs. These word
factors were:
lor -- including references to the enjoyment of life and nature, and ex-
pressing positive attitudes toward the beauties of life and the
natural environment;
kindness and love--including references to kin, teachers, classmates,
animals, and nature;
2
nature--including'references to animals and the environment, particularly
birds, flowers, seasons and especially the spring season, brooks,
hills, fields, and woods;
religion--including references to God, prayer, thanksgiving, supplication,
and reverence;
school--including references to learning, study, and teachers;
work and diligence' -- including references to concerted efforts, persistence,
and accomplishment.
The body of the report will be comprised of a succinct analytical statement
4concerning each of the fifty-five song texts. Each statement will conclude
with the initial letters of whichever key word factors seem to apply. The
summary and conclusions section will summarize the quantitative information
concerning the key word categories and offer any general conclusions which may
appropriately be drawn from the analysis.
The Song Text Analysis
(Numbers refer to the songs as they are numbered in the appendix.)
1. "Goodnight" addresses the pleasures of both work and play as they are
intermingled in the school day. Respect for the teacher is shown in the
phrase "teacher dear." (JSW)
2. "The Star" expresses the greatness of nature via the beauty of the stars
as well as their usefulness in guiding travelers. (N)
3. "Bells" tells us that Sabbath bells announce the love of God and thus are
very important. And, for the youth seeking truth, school bells are the
key. (RS)
4. "Be Gentle to the Dumb Ones" refers to animals and encourages children tobe patient and kind. Do not beat your beasts. To strike is wrong. More
is accomplished by love than fear. (KN)
5. "The Creator" God created everything we can perceive--the entire beautiful
environment. (NR)
6. "Heavenly Father" is in essence a prayer for help in being kind, kind andtrue to all at home and school, and for help to mind "the golden rule."
(ARS)
50
3

little things, scorns himself. (KN)
11. "The Busy Bee" emphasizes the goodness and the rewards of keeping busy.
(JW)
12. "Little Birdie" extolls the beauty of birds and offspring and the related
processes of nature. (N)
13. "Do You Hear the Music Ringing?" stresses the joy of singing, especially
in the "school room bright." (JS)
14. "Little Wonders" again stresses the theme that little things are important.Everything that lives, every raindrop that falls, every deed that' done
adds up to fill the world with treasures. The value of nature ands -good
deeds is stressed. (JNW) of
15. "The Canary" hps to do with taking good care of pets, in this case a petbird whose song reminds the child of all the natural beauties God has
made. (KNR)
16. "Peewee" speaks to the beauty of even the smallest bird's song and againthe beauties of nature and nature's creatures are extolled. (N)
17. "Vacation Day" encourages children to enjoy the forests and the flowers
and to value nature. (JN)
18. "Fairy Land" is a night song which stresses the value of loyal friends,with the implication that it is better to have a few loyal friends than
many casual ones. (K)
19. "Clouds" again extolls the beauty of nature as found in tly^ myriad cloud
types and shapes which pass above. (N)

classmates, and teachers. Kindness is a good act. (K)

butterflies in their natural environment. Also expressed is the hope for
their preservation--an early expression of environmental concern. (N)
4
23. "Don't Give Up" instructs us that we should not cry if we do not win. We
must learn from defeat to gain victory, and that is the true test. Wecan learn from nature, from young birds attempting to fly, and so on."Try, try again." (NW)
24. "The Spring" tells us of the natural beauties of spring, the flowers,birds, brooks, breezes, green hills and fields. (JN)
25. "Good-Night" expresses kind wishes for a good-night and a pleasant day.It is a simple and clear expression of kindness and good will towardothers. (K)
26. "Once in Spring" tells of the beautiful birth and life of a flower. Theloveliness of spring and nature in general is conveyed. (N)
27. "I Hear the Bell" tells how lovely it is to hear and obey the schoolbell's call. Let us hurry to respond and take advantage of the privilegeof studying "while we may." (JS)
28. "The Brooklet" stresses the beauty of the brook in its natural setting,and personifies its happiness in its environment. (JN)

30. "Sowing" is an allegory which szys we are sowing seeds of love or hate,kindness or discord with our every action. Are we bringing forth goldengrain or bitter pain? (NR)
31. "See the Blessed Rain" compares rain to diamonds. Rain is the richestgift of heaven for the green fields and the smoky towns. Note that smokytowns are mentioned in a positive value sense, because at that time signsof industry and manufacturing indicated jobs and progress; whereas nowsmoke has a negative connotation associated with pollution of the naturalenvironment. (N)
32. "Who Loves Me Best?" asks the question is it mother, father, sister? No,
God loves me more than all of these kind people. (KR)

5

(NRS)
40. "Robin Red-Breast" encourages the robin to find its nest because the cold
winter is coming. It expresses an awareness of nature and a concern for
nature's creatures. (KN)
41. "Heavenly Father" is a prayer for help always to do what is right. (R)
42. "Little Streams" again stresses the beauty of nature, particularly in theenvironment of the stream with its birds, flowers, and associated life
forms. (N)
43. "Bite Bigger, Billy" dramatizes the beauty of selfless sharing and generos-
ity. (K)
44. "The Temperance Song" is set in the form of a conversation with a robin.
The robin sings "Tee-to-tal" and reminds the listener that, when it comes
to drinking, cold water is best. Temperance is best. (NR)
45. "There's a Bright Side" stresses that kindness and trust brighten theworld regardless of whether it is day or night. (KS)
46. "The Brooklet" again speaks to the beauty of nature via a description of
a brook and its surrounding life. The brook and nearby birds, bees, andflowers are observed as a little girl passes. (JN)
47. "Apples For Sale" has the boys it the class singing the salesman's partwhile the girls sing the cook's part. This is sex-role enculturation
according to 19th century values. (W)

lark, robin, dove, lamb, sun, hills, and rills. (NW)
49. "Away, Away" makes the point that books are not the only way to learn- -
communing with nature is also valuable. (NS)
50. "Words of Welcome" extolls the virtues of school and learning. Welcome
"to our nice, pleascnt schoolroom, and teachers so dear." We wish to
show how hard we've worked and how much we've learned. Our lessons "make
us submissive, and gentle, and kind, as well as enlighten and strengthen
the mind." Learning is more precious than gold; we strive for virtue,honor, and love, and to lay up treasures in mansions above. (KRSW)
51. "Our Father" is a prayer to God the Father who shows himself in the
glories of nature. (NR)
C')1_1,4
6
52. "Come to My Home" is addressed to a pretty songbird. The singer offers
to feed the bird but then realizes that this is not necessary because God
watches over all his creatures. (NR)
53. "Death of Lincoln" is a farewell and a heroes eulogy. "Thou who did'st
God's chosen lead Thro' a sea, all! red indeed!" The values stressed here
are that Lincoln was strong in word, deed, and prayer; willing to do and
dare. (KRW)
54. "With Praise We Will Crown the Morning" states that with praise to Godand with toil--good hard work--we will "crown the morning." This is a
morning prayer and a resolve to the ethic of hard work. 1JRW)
55. "What We Love" expounds on the beauties of nature's seasons. In the
Spritig verse brooks and flowers are mentioned. In the summer verse,
streams, birds, and new-mown hay are mentioned. In the autumn verse,
fields of grain, fruit and trees are mentioned and in the winter verse,ice, snow, cold and sledding are mentioned. We love all the seasons--all
nature. (JN)
Summary and Conclusions
The key word factors hypothesized for use in the forgoing analysis seem
highly appropriate for describing the essential qubject matter of the song
texts. From the quantitative standpoint it\is judged that the joy factor,
which included references to the enjoyment of life and nature as well as
indications of positive attitudes towards the beauties of life in the natural
environment, was present in at least twelve of the fifty-five songs analyzed.
The kindness and love factor, which included reference to kin, teachers,
classmates, animals, and nature in general, was evident in at least sixteen of
the songs. The nature factor, which included references to animals and the
natural environment (birds, flowers, seasons, brooks, hills, fields, woods and
clouds), was evident in at least thirty-two songs. The religion factor,
including references to God, prayer, thanksgiving, petition, and reverence,
was evident in at least nineteen of the songs. The school factor, including
references to learning, study, and teachers, was evident in at least fourteen
of the songs. And finally, the work and diligence factor, which included
references to cor^cientious effort, persistence, and accomplishment, was
evident in at leas, _n of the songs. While each of the factors was suffi-
ciently represented to be determined a major factor, the nature factor gained
significant prominencJ with its thirty-two references. All of the others
ranged between ten and twenty and were obviously of major importance as
concerns the attitudes, ethics, morals, and values of late 19th century
America, at least as these were expressed in the primary song text literature
which was analyzed in this study.
In conclusion, and based on the analysis undertaken, it seems safe to say
that scngs were quite consistently employed for didactic purposes, that is,
for purnoss of inculcating and enculturating students with the dominant
attitudes, ethics, morals and values of the time. Furthermore, these values
seem to cen,er on at least six factors which in this study have been defined
in terms of joy or enjoyment, kindness and love, nature, religion, school, and
work and di' .gence. Given ±11-2 conclusions it may be fair to speculate that
song materials such as those analyzed in this study seem to be the musical
equivalents of the famed McGuffey readers, particularly when one considers the
contents of the song texts. Finally, it may be noted that the song melodies
themselves i. .t generally of a simple, pleasant and forthright style, consist-
ing of simple rhythms and essentially scale-wise or bavic chord-wise move-
m_nts. Thus the musical (jollities are not only appropriate to the,age level
and teaching objectiv for which the text is intended, but they also rein-
force and enhance the simple, basic values expressed in the texts of the
songs.

:muds) will had OS to observe the three following differences :
1st. lAossg or short.II. High or Ism.3d. Solt or lots:1.
II. PIM PERTS 1.3 or Tusk:3.-11e three preceding distinctions lead us to
recognise three esorsespossolissg properties of tosses:
1st. lietsgt1s,2s1. Pitch.11. Power.
1.1;.. DEPARTMENTS. 09 account of these three properties, which we
necessarily consider in the study of music, it becomes convenient to divide
the subject into also following nutsssessts:
1st: Itsivvonscsthat which treats of length.2d. Moi.oloscatIsnt which trestle of pitch.
IntsAmIcsthat whirl' Denis of power.
RHYTHM /C S.
1. LENUTII of 1114 Aic, Ilse absolute length of tones is not
considered. We do not measure the length of sounds, spakiog ono n militate
long, another a Ions tls of a minute, etc. The only length we consider, is s
relative one. Oise toms is as longns the time we are ;staking osse motion
of the hand, another is as long evils, etc.i. NOTE. .MOW relative lenglIsa of tome are sopresented by notes.
The name of the notes arc :
