College Glee Clubs
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author of cat Good Old Siwash."

COLLEGE glee club is a compact
"A and well drilled body of mer
L \ who escape from the campus
usually during the Christmas holidays
and penetrate long distances into the
peaceful country, leaving a light blue
wake with pink trimmings.
Glee clubs are so called because of
the glee with which they make their
trips. Next to a chance to promenade a
few yards over the collar bones of a
rival football team, the dearest ambi-
ton of the college student is to become
member of q glee club and travel in
a private car. No man can know the
full possibilities of travel in q Pull
man car unless he has jOurneyed with
a glee club whose sophomore members
have spent the night throwing all the
shoes they could find at the station
agents as the train whizzed by.
1t is also customary in high class
college choral work to call some fresh
man member at A. NJ. and to watch
him trying TO find his clothes in order
to get off in ten minutes at a station
which the train Will not reach until
after breakfast
Owing to these and other scientific
methods, the art of music has been
greatly developed in our colleges and
thousands OF listeners swarm to
the theaters each year to hear the
merry college boys. Formerly these
boys sang playful college songs such
as Polly WOlly Doodle" and "Bringla-
lUngalOng.T But nowadays they are
more classical in their tastes The
Soldiers Chorus is about as low down
as the average glee club will go now
adays. This brings these organizations
into active competition with grand
opera and sends the audience away
