The undersigned German Lady Teachers of Chicago who have attended the chorous and singing classes of music directed by Katzenberger in the interest of the German lessons make the following report:-
1. That, Mr. Katzenberger manages these lessons on a real scientific educational principle.
2. The lessons are given regularly, comprehensive conscientiously and with an unique easy method whereby with the assistance of an intuitive method of instructions and writings experiments, the effect will be a lasting knowledge of the musical elementary teachings, notations and reading of notes.
3. That the same system has been applied in the ladies classes and good results have been obtained.
4. That Mr. Katzenberger has achieved great merits teaching pure pronunciation free of any dialect.
2These German chorus classes not only deserve full appreciation but also the full support of the German public. As regarding their great educational value as a factor in the formation of mind and soul and as an important support of the German mother tongue and its development generally.
