The Performance of tho "Dofcs" on Friday
evening, was first class. The play chosen was
"Olr Boys" and it certainly was remarkably well
presented. We do not believe any amateur club
can excel their acting, which, considering it was
the first appearance was excellent. Lemont Hal!
was well filled and judging from the applause, the
audience was satisfied, to say the least. Seec-
tons from kela Bella, Bauer, Carl and EileDberg,
were finely rendered by the Bowdoin orchestra.
The club think of going to Bath next.
