...Blakeslee '09 in the role of Frau von Mirville. E. F. Hanfstaengl as Gormeuil and P. M. Piel Sp. as Champagne repeated their successes in previous Verein plays. Of the less important roles that of Ein Notar, played by J. Loewenberg '08 of Konigsberg, was especially well done. F. C. Wellman '11, as Valcour, and O. L. Lyding '09 as Ein Postillon were well able to meet the lesser demands of their parts...

Besides the main office, there are five branches: the Sailors' branch in the Battery, the East Side branch, the West Side branch, and branches in Brooklyn and Harlem. The Sailors' branch deals with the impositions practiced upon seamen, and has done much in the last twenty years to raise the legal standard of the sailor.
