...giving the same programme at its different concerts. Knowing how restricted are the privileges of this Club, we cannot censure it for that semi-indifference of which it has been accused. In order that this organization may prosper as it should, some change must be made that will awaken enthusiasm among its members and the College at large. It is well known how appreciative an audience collects at the many windows in the Yard to listen to the songs and glees of this Club. The Pierian Sodality is not even as well known as the Glee Club.

Eighty-one from the beginning has shown great enthusiasm. They began practice a week ago with fifteen men. This number has increased daily, till there are at present twenty-three men trying. A fair estimate of the prospects of the Nine may be obtained from the following list of candidates: Coolidge and Folsom of the University; Barton, Elliott, Fisher...
