Notes

At Christmastime, the Seattle Seminary Chorus performed the oratorio "The Messiah" by George Frederick Handel.

From the Cascade, April 1915 regarding the Girls' Glee Club: "To the work! To the work! We are workers, indeed. The girls have again rallied to the standard." The group was reorganized and limited the number of memberships.

From the Cascade, May 1915: "The following week (after April 9) the B singing class displayed their advancement in musical lines by singing "The Lord is My Shepherd," after which Miss Edna Laurence of the science department gave a lecture on different phases of that subject, explaining many laws of physics, and also gave a demonstration of how snow could be made from chemicals. It was so cold that some of the students thought their fingers were burned after touching it."
