Capping Day means College song, and College songs imply the expression of a College spirit. By their works ye shall know them, and we are very pleased to note this year that the number of aspirants has increased and the production shows a great improvement on last year's work. The songs were good, and the extravaganza excellent. J. F. Thompson's songs gained the first and second prizes offered by the Students' Association. S. Eichelbaum's "Smoking," written after the entries had closed, was, probably, however, the most popular. The lecture, which has been given this term F. A. de la Mare, and greeted with enthusiasm by lager audiences of students, ought to do something towards increasing the interest of the students in this form of literature
