A COMMUNICATION COLLEGE SONGS AND SINGING My Dear Edltor--Tho rhanoollor has announced for Thursday morning a program devoted to college singing and we should like to solicit tho active ( o-operation of the Daily in arousing a sentiment among the students in lawn- of college singing and of attending convocation on Thursday morning. Mr Klmhall of the school of music has offered Ills assistance and that insures a good accompaniment and c ritical judgment in the selec lion of the songs to sing. Everybody knows that while tho univoisity people are applet iativo ol the host i lasslcal musical entertain ments, there is a woeful lack of in terest in enthusiastic singing among tho students There is no university song, there is no glee club and, when tho students come together in largo hodles, it is very seldom that they join in singing. These facts are remarked upon and lamented by eery one who knows anything of student life in tne eastern colleges and universities. Sing ing is an inseparanlo part of student life, it is necessary to tho develop ment of university spirit and an essen tial element in the promotion of coin radship and fellow feeling among tho students. It should bo true that when the students are brought together in considerable numbers, as at (lass par tics or upon the campus at games, they should break into singing Singing is tho best and most effective rooting. When It conies time for the students to take a night off, robes do unit, let enthusiastic singing bo a part the bet tor part of the entertainment the spectators aru. offered, and when it conies time to show class spirit, one c lass might serenade another by ap propriate songs and desist from kid naping the members of the other or throwing into dance halls and parlors tin cans and bottles tilled with vile smelling stuffs to spoil dresses, ruin pur, erty and break up tho entertain ment. Singing makes an excellent sub stitute for rowdyism without taking away the fun and it is effective in pro moting good feeling and unsurpassed as a means when rightly used of cor recting abuses and gaining desired Sidles' Sportinrj Goods Jiorise Tennis, Base Ball and Gymnasium Goods.

This organization is now building a College Settlement home and is using this as a means to sec nro funds with which to carry on the work The play to be given on May 2 pioiu ises to be one which will draw out a largo crowd because of the strength or tho play itself and the ability of tho students who are to take pait. The play to be produced is a throe act comedy, adapted from the French bv the well-known playwiight. Sydney Grundy, and made famous by the Fng lish actor.

They have neithei books, teacheis nor interpreter; they ma be Russians, Germans. Frenchmen, Spaniards or Swedes, they geneially understand nothing about the principles of giammar; they may be too young 01 uneducated to even write their own language, yet despite it all, they invariably, within a few months, master sufficient English not only to make themselves understood, but to speak it gramatically and cor rectly, provided they have mixed with cultured classes of society. From these fjcts, it is obvious, some system must exist which always and under all circumstances leads to complete contiol of a foreign tongue. Again we say IT IS NATURE'S OWN WAV, AND COMES THROUGH THE EAR .... Let us bring any foreign language in your own 100111, spoken by a foreign professor, who is there at all hours of the day, willing to instruct you for 24 hours each day, if you wish.
