The writer of the communication in regard to the Glee Club has, we think, made a suggestion which deserves the serious attention of those who control the policy of the club. One of the very many pleasant features of the spring term has always been the singing in the yard in the early hours of the evening. The only regret in the past has been that there has not been more of it. This year there has been less than usual. Thoughtlessness or indifference of the few in authority and not the general lack of interest has put the good old custom in the back-ground. The time from half past six to eight is leisure for a large part of the students. It is seldom, if ever, that the yard is more filled than then. It is the one time in the evening when men would gather most willing to listen to the old and new college songs which, when sung on such occasions, are so full of suggestion and even of inspiration. Unless there is some very good reason to the contrary, we feel that the Glee Club is making a great mistake to grow slack in maintaining this idea of informal open air singing. There are still, however, over two weeks of college left and much can be done in this time if the proper persons will take the pains to adopt the suggestion and correct the present tendency.
