Last evening the Young Men's Christian Association held the second social of the year in the society rooms in Lawrence Hall. A large number of the members attended and the result was a very pleasant evening. The committee which had charge of the social had arranged a musical and literary programme in which Messrs. Rice, Smith, Hayes and Dodge took part. The whole programme was a thoroughly enjoyable one, Mr. Smith's bass solo being especially pleasing. Light refreshments were served at the close of this programme, and the remainder of the evening was spent by the members, in conversation.

The affair was very successful and reflects great credit upon the managing committee. If these socials were held oftener they would doubtless increase the interest in the society, and, we believe, add to its working efficiency in the University.
