St. etilia illllusin Iuh The St. Cecilia Music Club, which has been an active society for the past live years. was reorganized early this year. Capable ofncers were elected who presided over the regular monthly meetings. During these assemblies there were instructive discussions of various musicians, enhanced by characteristic selections of the composers, played by members of the club. For each meeting there were appointed hostesses, who provided refreshments and forms of entertainment, such as musical games and puzzles. The members were thus drawn closer together in the comradeship of a common interest, and to these gatherings the following words of Addison could be applied with truth: l'From social inter- course are derived some of the highest enjoyments of life: where there is a free interchange of sentiments the mind acquires new ideas. and by a frequent exer- cise of its powers, the understanding gains fresh vigor.
