FRESH LAURELS
FOR GLEE CLUB
UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATION HON.
AFTER SUCCESSFUL TOUR OF
THE NORTH
Net With Splendid Response From the
People and Entertainments Highly
Appreciated

The University Glee Club returned
last evening from its trip through
north Idaho with every member o1
the club feeling that they were well
repaid for all the long hour of re-
hearsing and the discomforts arising
from making one-night stands over &
large area. The club is to be con-
graduated in that no member became
i'll on the trip, that everyone behaved
splendidly and carried to the towns
visited the best fraternal musical
greeting of Idahos leading educational
institution.
"It was not necessary to substitute
anyone in any musical number" said
Mr. Storer, who accompanied the
club on it's trip. "Very many words of
praise and congratulations were re
ceivad from the alumni of the Uni
versity, the superintendents and prin-
cipals of the schools as we'll as the
townspeople The financial end of the
trip came very near the estimates out
lined before starting and what small
loss sustained can be very easily met
by another concert here in Moscow
THE trip has stimulated the music
al interest in glee-clubs and orches-
tras in the towns visited strengthened
the loyalty and interest of the alumni
who heard us, and given unusual mus
ical satisfaction to the audience. En-
cores had to be given to almost every
number.
Regarding the conduct OF the
members it might be we'll to add the
comments of the chief of police Of one
of the towns who said You have a
fine gentlemanly crowd of students.
| WAS looking forward to your coming
with some mis-givings. | expected to
land some of your men in Jail. But
l heard no complaint, saw nothing uh-

There is no question but what re-
turn dates can be secured next year
in all the towns on the schedule just
visited provided the musical standard
is kept up"
