This band Is generally known as one of tb,o best university bands in the Unlte'd States, therefore It has al ways heen a treat to hear them dis play their arts on all occasions, but last night was an exception to the rule. Their selections were of a more classical order than those given at tho football games or at dross pa rados. It was obvious that those who are not aware of the real ability of the University band were agreeably sur prised after hearing the concert, while thoBO who know wero better pleased than they have ever been before.

We have had a good band before, but not until this year havo we been favored hy such an extraordinary or ganization. Mr. Cornell took tho di rectorship of tho band last fall, and It la self-evident tho laurels should rest on his shoulders. Tho- instrumental solos were ren dered In faultless stylo hy Harry Du boff, violin; C. L. Hyno, xylophone, and C. Gordon Beck, trombone. Greek in EnglishCourse 2b.
