We are somewhat surprised to learn that one of our musical organizations is suffering at present from the indifference or thoughtlessness of its members. We refer to the Pierian Sodality, an organization which has hitherto been not only a credit to the University at large, but also a source of great enjoyment to those who have attended the concerts given in the past by this society in connection with the other musical societies of Harvard. It would be a great pity if the part taken by the Pierian in the May concert should not be a success, and it would be a still greater pity if the faithful members should find themselves so handicapped next fall by lack of support from the upperclassmen that they could not find heart to attempt a revival of the society. The fault lies, we believe, with the older members who have allowed their attention to be drawn off by other things. At any rate, it is upon the shoulders of the members from Eighty-eight and from Eighty-nine that the blame must rest if the Pierian keeps the down-bill path, it seems to be taking. Every man in the University will join us in urging that the welfare of this society be looked after by its members who cannot escape the responsibility by resigning now when the condition of things is bad owing to their own neglect, nor by staying away from rehearsals as they seem to have acquired the habit of doing. We have a right to demand in the name of the University that the Pierian Sodality which as an organization has been given temporarily into the hands of the upperclassmen now in college, shall be handed down to the coming classes in as prosperous a condition as it was at the beginning of the present year. We hope that at the spring concert now but a few weeks distant, the Sodality will not disappoint the audience that will assemble in Sanders Theatre.
