...considered the best male singer heard here in operetta for the past few years, with the exception of Orville Harold. The other members of the cast are familiar musical-comedy figures. It is a distinct relief to find a piece, the libretto of which does not suffer from the injection of slap-stick and futile appeals to the powers below, and in spite of the cold reception "Gypsy Love" received in New York, doubtless for this very reason, it is the best operetta seen this season.

...those who witnessed the birth and death of the first Student Council, the superiority of the new organization is apparent.

The scholar, the athlete, and the litterateur are all members of the new Council; but where, in the parlance of the newspapers, do the "common people" come in?
