Tn spite of the fact that we haven't a very large Indent body this year, there arc more students enrolled in the imiMc department than ever before.

Tlie band, the orchestra, and the choruses have all recently pre-ented programs over KLO. Weber's male chorus is somewhat of a community affair with Weber men only as a nucleus. The class is held wo evenings a week and regular credit is given. The eln rtis is still open to new members. The band has completed its work on marches and is now taking up an extensive study of overtures. Plans are being made for a big program just before the Christmas holidays, and the orchestra and choruses arc at present working toward that end, endeavoring to produce for us something unusually fine in the way of musicalentertainment.
