The Spike or Victoria University College Review September 1925

Glee Club

page 67

Glee Club

We march as weary soldiers all.
Along Life's dusty way—
If any man can play the pipes,
In God's name let him play.

The Musical Society has more than justified its inauguration. The Glee practices have been carried on from the beginning with boundless enthusiasm. The break caused by the term vacation certainly in no way lessened the attendance, and practices this term are just as good as ever, in spite of the multitude of examinations.

The Orchestra came into being shortly after the Society was formed, and has held weekly practices ever since, continuing throughout the vacation. Though it has only lately attained full strength it has fulfilled all expectations, and promises to give a good account of itself at the forth-coming concert.

The annual concert and dance, the proceeds of which are to go towards the cost of the new piano, will be held at the end of September. Though the Club has been in existence for only half of the year the members have worked hard, and the full attendances at the weekly practices have made up for any deficiencies due to this fact. Outside talent has been secured, and the concert will be one of the best ever given at College.

The Society wishes to take this opportunity of thanking the anonymous friend who made a generous donation to the Club funds. It also wishes to place on record its appreciation of the generous services rendered by Mr. Kohn in all the work of the Society, especially in the orchestration of the College songs.
