the report upon samples Of baking

| President Fellows went to Belfast
| last week and spoke before the Con-
gregational society of that city
| Two hundred volumes of books rec
| commended by the heads of the depart
| mcntS have been ordered for the IL
hrary.
| The musical clubs have finished their
| hard schedule of rehearsals and are
| now in perfect condition for the short
| trip this week to Dover, Dexter and
| Gullford. Owing to the fact that the
| clubs have not been in these towns for
| Two wears and also that they have an
| enViable reputation as entertainers. it
| IS expected that n large audience will
greet the boys every night.
1t is not certain whether Mr.. Max
well. the cello soloist now at the Law
| School. will be able to go with the clubs
on this trip, but with j. Goodrich and
r. Fellows as readers. the extra num-
bers on the program will not be allow

and will, without Goubt. prove a sue
cess.
Up To the present time but little has
been heard of the Musical Federation
although those in charge of this organ
iZation have been rerfccting the details
so that the whole matter can be pre
scented to the student body in an intel
llgent manner. Small hant-buCks con-
talning the rules and regulations have
been given out. and some of the pur
poses explained. Following the Christ
mas recess, the matter will be brought
before the students ut short college
meeting, and it is expected that 4 new
ana deeper interest will be awakened
IN all branches of the several musical
departments
The band will not appear in concert
work again until the middle of January
as both the leader and manager arc
away. If, however, every man turne
out and receives the valuable instruc-
ton of Mr.. Sprague. the next concert
ought to be n great musical success
Great praise is due Leader Bye and
the members of the orcbestr, for IA
able manner in which they plaved At
the dance which followed in the gym.
