...Opera Association has just completed a highly successful season. The report of the treasurer shows a balance of $563.93, a gain of more than $300 over last year's balance. The Association received several helpful gifts of tickets and money from Boston people, and was thus in a position to fill most of the demands for seats. Although the membership this year was raised from 50 cents to $1, the membership was practically as large as last year's. With the increased amount of cash on hand it will be possible to buy a great many more season tickets...

...easy matter for amateur actors to gain the attention of such an audience as was present at the "undergraduate night" of the Dramatic Club, -- an audience that was at first as critical and unencouraging as young persons of twenty too frequently are, and that had apparently come rather to dance after the performance than to enjoy the plays themselves.

L. Beach's war-time...
