Two different affairs have been g ven by the school in honor of Mr. Rabaud. The first was a reception tendered him by the faculty and trustees in Recital Hall on the afternoon of January 23. The hall was beautifully decorated with laurel palms, and the French and American flags. At this time a special musical program was given by a small orchestra under the direction of Mr. Goodrich. This program was repeated on January 30 for the general public with Mr. Modest Allod of the faculty conducting. The second was given by members of Mr. Adamowski ' s ensemble classes on April 28 in Recital Hall. Of special interest on this program were two pieces Orientale and Danse Negre for four cellos, by Mr. Mason. Members of Sinfonia fraternity. Alpha chapter, gave an evening of manuscript compositions in their rooms on April 29. Much real talent was shown in the works presented. Allan Langley ' s string quartet in B flat major and a waltz for small orchestra were played, also songs by James Spencer, Elliot Griffis and L. Porter Trusselle. The year is approaching its close, but in these affairs as in past years, the best is yet to come. CAROLYN WORCESTER RICE.
