...sought after sanction by the college faculties will be given, and that in future years we shall have fair as well as sturdy A. M's, A. B's. and Ph. D's.

We hope that the Pierian will not fail to continue in this branch of music for which they seem to possess most talent. Mr. Lilienthal was warmly greeted and encored at the end of his song. Mr. Cabot's fine 'cello playing was likewise much enjoyed. A pleasant feature of the concert...
