The La Vie.
In view of the fact that there are
Many persons in college who do not
realize or know what the La Vie is,
and in view of the fact that the
proper interest is not taken in it by
others, may I say a few words
through your columns?
The first La Vie, which was pub
lished by the class of 1890, con
tained 140 pages, and its purpose as
stated in the foreword was to be a
record of the class and of college
affairs; to show without adornments
all sides of life at our institution, the
desire being to enlighten as well as
to entertain. It was to be published
by the Junior class for the college,
and now while volume twenty-one is
being made, I would like to impress
the fact upon everyone that it is a
college book and needs material and
suggestions from every underclass
man and every upperclassman.
The size of the college, and
necessarily the size of the book,
THE STATE COLLEGIAN
have increased greatly in twenty
years, the last volume having over
four hundred pages. The great
number of students makes it im
possible to find all who are good
photographers, good artists, or who
are good in any other line, but it is
just these persons who can make the
La Vie a good college book by sub
mitting material. Photographs taken
about the college or of scenery in
the surrounding country are especial
ly desirable.
A La Vie box is to be placed at
, some prominent place about the col
lege to receive such material, and I
urge that it may be used, for no
book looks so well as one full of
good pictures. One section of the
1910 La Vie will feature nothing but
original, unique, and interesting
photographs of college and college
life. Help us to make it as com
plete and as large as possible.

A Musical Treat.
Too much cannot be said in praise'
of the concert on Monday eveningi
by the New York Grand Concert'
Company. The entire prograriT
was rendered with an artistic finish
that is seldom equalled except by'
grand opera stars.
The quartette work was magni
ficent, every little detail in phrasing
and musical interpretation being
thoroughly brought out. At the
same time, the perfect blending and
balance of the four voices made -all
their selections a delight.
Miss Hudson, the soprano, has
not only a rarely beautiful voice, but
her easy and unaffected manner won
much admiration from the audience.
Mr. Croxton, basso, is also an
artist, and the rendering of his solos
was decidely favorable, in every
particular.
Miss Benedict and Mr. James also
were very acceptable in their work,
calling forth hearty applause from
the audience.
Taken as a whole, the concert was
decidedly high class, and the great
regret is that more students were
not present to profit by such an en
tertainment, for such artists are not
easy to get here, and the educational
value of their work is very great.
Better Work in Illustration.
A movement is on foot to or
ganize a society for the purpose of
raising the standard of the illustra
tions in the college publications. It
will aim to review and become better
acquainted with the work of the
best illustrators and to promote in
terest in illustration throughout the
college. Such societies have worked
with remarkable success at many
colleges, as the work of their year
books show. Penn State will with
out doubt also be able to rai3e her
standard of work in this line. All
men interested in this work are
asked to meet in 564 Main at 6:30
on Saturday, Dec. 12, to formulate
plans for such an organization.
