Tabb doesn't look like a typical music teacher. But every weekday evening in the French Quarter New Orleans, he beats out the rhythm on his music stand as students play their chosen instruments.

¡°I'm doing my best to take young people away from harmful things,¡± said Tabb. His program,  "The Roots of Music¡±, offers free music education to more than 100 students. He struggles to keep young people on the straight and narrow in the city with the nation's highest murder rate(Ð×ɱÂÊ).

Tabb chose to target 9­to14­year­olds with his program. ¡°That's a very important time in your life,¡± he said. ¡°If I catch them then, I can hold onto them for at least four or five years and guide them the way that will lead them to success.¡±

Students meet from 4 pm to 7 pm every weekday, all year round. They work with tutors(Öú½Ì) on schoolwork, practice their music and eat a hot meal before heading home. With the money provided by some people, Tabb's group is able to provide bus transportation, instruments and food for free. He calls it his ¡°no excuse¡± policy. ¡°You have no excuse why you're not here,¡± Tabb said. Tabb owes the success in part to the nature of music. ¡°You're always learning something new,¡±he said. ¡°That's what keeps the kids coming back every day.¡±

But the program isn't only about fun. ¡°Music is about discipline (¼ÍÂÉ),¡±said Tabb. He insists on good behavior and keeps kids in order with threats of sit­ups(ÑöÎÔÆð×ø), pushups(¸©ÎÔ³Å) or tasks like picking up grains of rice ¡ª but these measures aren't just punishment. Tabb wants young people to realize that music can help them build a better future. ¡°I don't say that I'm saving lives,¡± he said. ¡°I say I'm giving life ¡ª a whole different life of music.¡±

Jack:___64_____ Anne and I have been saving up. We¡¯ve saved a few hundred pounds between us

and could buy furniture--- enough to start with. But the house is the problem.

Mrs. Hunter : __65____ Jack?

Have you any idea
