I lllil.l UULO " - The Shakespeare Club The Shakespeare Club held its first meeting this year in Gerard hall, on Tuesday night last. Dr. Hume, in his usual impressive manner, opened the meeting with a few very appropriate remarks. Quite a number of new men pursu ing Dr. Hume's higher courses con nected themselves with the Club during the meeting. This being the first meeting of the session the Mandolin and Banjo Clubs. Mandolin and Banjo Clubs that will be a credit to the University, important to a college club.,' "Mr. Bristol has successfully acted as leader in the absence of Mr. Dickenson. I consider him in every way qualified to organize, lead and instruct a college mandolin club." "I am pleased to say that as a musician he is first class not only in execution but the interpretation of the same.

This is necessary in or der to keep the expense of the pro it up, broaden it out, make it mani fest in other directions, organize other teams, for instance teams for track athletics. Why not? Every one can t play loot ball, so give every body a show, and have class contests in field sports. It is only through such contests as these that we can ever hope to gain the longed for position, so lets have them ble. However those who do not succeed in getting on the clubs this year will be ready to fill vacancies next fall and without doubt will play with the clubs at the com mencement concert this coming June. Mr. L. M. Bristol, who has been secured as musical director of the clubs, comes to us with the highest recommendations. He is a Wesley- D; A. Kirkpatrick ex.

The donation was made by the General Manager H. N. Turner through Mr. F. W. Taylor. Let us have your name and sub scription at once. election of officers for the year was then entered into. The following are the officers elected; Dr. Hume, President; Prof. Walter D. Toy, Vice-President: Mr. Geo. S. Wills. Secretary; and Mr. Her bert Bingham, Treasurer. Richard III, the subject for the night, was then taken up, after Dr. Hume had given the great connect ing links in English history up to the time of the beginning of the play. Mr. Fred h. Carr then read the first paper of the evening on "The Historical Localities in Richard the Third."' He began by the treat ing of the Tower of London, and giving the tradition in regard to its establishment. He stated that the tradition was not corrct, it having been founded in the time of the con queror and not by Julius Cajsar as tradition asserts. He discussed the other important localities in the same manner and also the incidents connected with them. Mr. Alexander then read a paper on Buckingham. He, showed how the allegorical treatment of Buck ingham in Sackville's Mirror for Magistrates differed from the dra matic treatment of the same person age. The one, he said, treated him on the subjective side, the other on the objective. The instrument of the drama is action and that of allegory is soliloquy. Mr. H. M. Thompson next pre sented a paper on Margaret, with the subtitle of "Woman or Devil, which?" He said that the anachro nism did not detract, but added force to the play. He stated that Shakespeare had drawn in bold strokes, while the Margaret of Scott had been much softened. But after all Scotts' was the truer picture. Then Mr. M. H. Yount present ed the last paper of the evening on "The ethical Element of Richard the Third. ' ' He treated the charac ter of Richard from the time he be gan to usurp the throne down to his death, showing how familiarity with sin had caused him to lose all idea of moral obligation. He said that cruelty and hypocnev had been carried to such a stajre in Rich ard that moral retribution was the natural consequence. 1 he meeting was lartrelv attend ed and much enjoyed by all. Suc cess to the Shakespeare Club. We are glad to notice that our en terprising Press Association has taken on a new department that of getting out writing paper tablets. The paper is of good quality, the printing neat and there are q6 sheets in each tablet. Let everybody pat ronize our home industry.
