...true art and shows that he does not believe with ruskin that a perfect reproduction is a work of art. True art, the author says, is "nature reflected in the spiritual mirror, and tinged with all the sentiment, feeling, and passion of the spirit that reflects it." It is neither real or illusory; it is the embodiment of the inmost being of the artist.

The first is that the action of the amusement committee on the proposed Christmas trip cooled the interest of the members, and the second is that many men in the Glee club expect to sing in the Hasty Padding theatricals, and cannot give time to both clubs. Neither of these reasons is valid. Before last year the club never went on a Christmas tour and the local concerts were quite sufficient to keep up a strong interest in the rehearsals. The disappointment this year was undoubtedly discouraging, but the success of the two concerts given since Christmas shows...
