We are glad that the Banjo, Guitar and Mandolin clubs have consented to play on Class Day. Last year also an effort was made to have the Mandolin Club play in the yard on Class Day evening, but for some reason or other the plan fell through. One of the excuses offered was that the mandolins would sound very well to those who heard them, but that there would be very few people who could hear them. The old suggestion being that the Mandolin Club should play in the yard, it was very naturally thought that the noises of the great crowd of people which strolls about the yard Class Day evening would drown any sound that the mandolins might make. The present proposition, which has been adopted, is that the clubs should play on the steps of the Law School. This is a great improvement, for there is sure to be less outside noise, and the clubs can be heard to much better advantage; how well they can be heard is a question for only the experience of the evening to answer. We give the clubs our best wishes, and hope that their music will prove as successful as it is hoped.

It would be a thing deeply to be regretted if the music were found to be too slight to overcome the rustle of the people walking about, for if successful, the music would be a great addition to Class Day. Hardly anything could be found better suited to the romantic atmosphere and spirit of Class Day evening than the music of mandolins.
