...recently shown himself to be an able leader. Distinguished soloists will also participate. The programmes will consist of works and selections suited to all tastes. Season tickets can now be had at Sever's at $4. The price has been purposely placed within the reach of all, and let us, therefore, as students, promptly do our share towards the support of the enterprise. Harvard, so prominent in all else pertaining to culture, with such a large community, and so excellent an auditorium as Sanders Theatre, ought to allow no winter to pass without a set of concerts.

Any one with the least capacity for business can see, by looking over the list of vacant rooms in college buildings, that this is not done now.

Since, then, we can sing, and since all of us would gladly have better singing, let us begin at once, and make the hymns something more than the performance of the gentlemen of the loft...
...four years of arduous service, I continued to follow the occupation for which I was best adapted by nature and most familiar by practice. But here I must pause, for with the remembrance of the Monday night drill, the words of command and battle struggle for utterance. Yes, gentlemen, let the historian chronicle my exploits in war if he will; let the poet sing them in paeans of martial melody: but do you, while memory keeps her tablet green, treasure me in your hearts as the FOUNDER OF THE HARVARD RIFLE CORPS...
