COMPLAINTS have been made about the Glee Club's continually giving the same programme at its different concerts. Knowing how restricted are the privileges of this Club, we cannot censure it for that semi-indifference of which it has been accused. In order that this organization may prosper as it should, some change must be made that will awaken enthusiasm among its members and the College at large. It is well known how appreciative an audience collects at the many windows in the Yard to listen to the songs and glees of this Club. The Pierian Sodality is not even as well known as the Glee Club. It is true that both the Glee Club and Pierian Sodality give annual concerts in Cambridge; but that they should accomplish no more than this for the year's work does not speak well for their management. We should propose that permission be obtained to put up in the Yard, much earlier than usual, the band stand which is used every Class Day, and that concerts be given weekly by both Glee Club and Pierian. The most desirable time for these concerts would be in the evening from seven to half past, as this time can in no way interfere with the study hours of the students. Such an arrangement as this would improve the singing of the Glee Club, the playing of the Pierian, and awaken at Harvard that interest in music so long wanting.
