...status of the "House clubs" for next year, although on a very uncertain basis, does not seem to warrant the discouraging article in the Advocate of last week.

With this in view, and the expenditure of a little more energy on the part of the club secretaries, we think...

...singing of the Glee Club, it seemed to us that they did not attack their pieces with quite enough firmness, and that in one glee they did not all begin together. However, these minor faults should not be taken to account, when we consider the excellence of the rest of their work. Mr. Heard is evidently well qualified for his position as leader...
