...Glee Club trials, held on Thursday and Friday, were unusually successful both in the number of the candidates and in the quality of their voices.

While we are waiting, however, it is hard to be contented with quietly receiving benefits and not giving to others. It is this feeling that has caused the Student Volunteer movement; and those who have taken part in the work find that here too they receive while they are giving.
