...last Advocated is a good one, although perhaps not up to the level of some recent numbers. The editorials are devoted to athletics, to the freshman advisers and to the plan of pro-viding a secretary for the Y. M. C. A. The nee Cycling Association meets with commendation, as do the advisers, who are praised for the skill and tact with which they have endeavored to obviate the obnoxious features of the regulations, and to establish inter course with the students on a friendly basis. The work done by the Y. M. C. A. is reviewed, and the advantage...

She was most successful in the Mad Song from "Hamlet" which displayed the powers of her voice to best advantage. The music of this "Scene," however, is hardly up to the level of Shakespeare. The set of Persian Love Songs by Rubinstein would have had a better effect in a smaller auditorium. Weber's "Freischuetz" overture made a fitting end and climax to the evening's music. Here the orchestra was again effective and vigorous...
