...pieces, Reinecke's "Manfred" proved to be the most pleasing number on the programme. The execution of Haydn's symphony in C was excellent, if somewhat slow. Wagner's martial and realistic overture to "Rienzi" was finely rendered. In attendance and appreciative spirit shown the concert was a great success...
...enough benefit would be gained to pay for the trouble of the experiment. Probably not more than one man in ten who begins the study ever perseveres, and out of those who do persevere very few become skilled enough to command a good salary. What is needed to insure success is not so much instruction as constant and hard practice. There are so many thorough and systematic textbooks that very little, if any, additional explanation would be required. For this reason, then, it would be a step of very doubtful expediency to make such an innovation as the establishment...

We know that if girl students attend faithfully to their duties at their own colleges they graduate accomplished women, and what more do we want? That co-education is declared a success at several excellent institutions does not prove that it is worth while extending it so long as it is fully acknowledged that Vassar and similar places meet every requirement...
