...were well received. The club sang these old-fashioned songs with exquisite skill and grace. "Maiden with Lips so Rosy," and the Post Horn by Schubert, were not so well executed. The Banjo club followed with Braham's Medley and excited so much enthusiasm that it was necessary to respond to three encores. The organization clearly made the hit of the evening. The programme closed with the familiar Mendelssohn wedding march by the Sodality and a group of college songs, of which the "Spanish Proverb" and the "Versatile Baby" were the best...
...strange if with our large classes we could not find more good men than a college of fewer numbers. But the difficulties of getting those men to work are great.

...Banjo club maintained its usual high standard and gave its three selections in excellent taste. The club was obliged to respond to encore at each selection.

Mr. Dodge to the idealism of Marlowe, Massinger and Middleton, contrasted with the subjective idealism of Byron, Browning and Walt Whitman," Mr. Lathrop to "Early rising and its influence on poetry." Mr. Newell to "The modern Puritan." Mr. Pillsbury...
...Friday evening at the first of a series of four informal performances given by the Boston Art Students' Association at the studio on Dartmouth street, back of the Art Museum. The club played four of its new Spanish airs in an extremely delicate manner, and were obliged to respond to an enthusiastic encore. Mr. Howells and Mr. Payson also played the Neapolitan polka "Fiorentinella" as a duet. After the music Mr. Walker gave a short lecture on Spain and art in general, and the evening was spent socially. The club will probably play at the meeting of March 18. Their...
