Musical Club Concert.
The combined Glee and Mando
lin Clubs gave a very successful con
cert in the Auditorium on Saturday
evening. The only detracting ele
Merit was the size of the audience.
' A peculiar reflection is cast upon
the student body when one remem
bers that during the Free Lectures,
' every available seat in the building
' was filled, while 'on Satuiday even
ing, when the Musical Clubs were
helping to defray the expenses of
, those, lectures, the lines of empty
' seats were alti ial . uibroken No
I excuse cai be offered for 1 such
miserably poor spirit, as the concert
was of high rank throughout.
The Glee Club has improved de
cidedly since the beginning of the
year. the combined- voices have__
good ,volume, , and are fiery well
i balanced. "Fill Your Steins" was
given' in a jolly, rollicking fashion, ,
that made it most agreeable. Ai
