Excellent Concert Enjoyed by Large
Crowd Saturday Evening.
A large and enthusiastic audience was
at City hall Saturday evening to enjoy
the excellent concert and attendant fes-
tivities which are safely To- he counted
upon Wher the Bowdoin Musical Clubs
make their annual visit to this city
From their arrival in the city Saturday
afternoon until the reluctant departure
of the rear guard on the Sunday night
Pullman, the local alumni and tie young
people of the city made the boys feel
at home. and to all concerned the visit
was fun of pleasure. The concert itself
WIS well up to the high standard set by
the BoWdoiiv clubs Of earlier years, full
of the swing and sweep, the vervc and
vrilitH OF underGra tudate spirit
II is not to BE- expected that -lee club
music shall bc Judged by the standards
OF the Bayreuth music festival or by
those Of metropolitan grand opera. 1t is
Fin 4 class by itself and it's critics are al
WAYS kindly. Perhaps the instrumental
club appeared u a little better advan-
ta@e Saturday evening than the singing
section, but 10th were good and Illed n!
the requirements. Special mention is due

tone was a delight 10 the soul: MI Erl-

assurance Cf Il brilliant future: and Nh
