(Continued on page 4, column 2.) 1918 PLEDGES $5000 MEMORIAL TO WAR SERVICE OF CLASSMATES Five thousnd dollars, a memorial to Amelia Richards and Louise Tunstall Smith, who died in war service, was voted as a reunion gift by 1918 at its re- union meeting last June. Practically the entire sum was raised in one day, by pledges at the class banquet and by tele- grams from absent members. The memo- rial was given to the Victory Chair of French. * ~~ Representatives _ of "nearly every gaia das dks ieee see Taylor Hall to discuss the Million Dollar Campaign Fund for Faculty Salaries, which will be carried on this year. The entire conference realized that the subject before them affected vi- tally, not only the future of Bryn Mawr, but of the education of women everywhere, and the whole cause of education in the United States. Speak- ing at the Saturday morning session, Acting-President Helen Herron Taft said, “The present campaigns to in- crease college endowment, our own, as well as the Princeton, Harvard, Cor- nell, Smith and other funds, are the most reasonable ways of pressing the claims of the teaching profession. But if the wealthy people of the United States do not realize that they owe the college professors of the country a liv- ing, I, for one, want the college facul- ties to form a union and strike.” spoke of the intolerable | sean under which so much college teaching is done. “We cannot have successful scholars,” said Miss Taft, “if a burden of financial worry weighs our teachers down. And the faculty of Bryn Mawr this year has had a real struggle to make ends meet. During the war, they were silent, but since the armistice they have been forced to bring for- ward their case for fair salaries. It is absolutely necessary that their case be eased.” “I want you to know,” said Miss Taft to the alumnew, “that we are faced with the difficulty of not getting any professors at all. Even Yale was shocked this year to discover how few promising young men were making ed- ucation their life work. They were all going to other professions where it was possible to live and support a family.” Show Need for Two Million The conference opened Friday morning ‘with Mrs. Richard Francis, president of the Bryn Mawr Alumne Association, in the chair. From the first the enthusiasts of the conference wanted to make the campaign one for a two million endowment rather than one million. The one million dollars would provide a faculty salaries increase of twenty-five per cent only, and in the face of the sixty to ninety per cent rise in the cost of living, reported by prac- tically every faculty family at the college, the proposed increase seemed too small. It was pointed out that if Bryn Mawr wanted to keep its primacy among the women’s educational institutions in Amer- ica, and to maintain its place on a par with the men’s universities, it must offer financial attraction to the best teaching staff possible in the country. Princeton's campaign calls for fourteen million dol- lars; Harvard’s campaign calls for thirty million, “and on up.” There was no sen- timent among Bryn Mawr alumnz for meekly dropping to second-rateness, of- fering to women, at the very beginning of their enfranchisement and in the hour of their greatest need for an education that would make political leadership and responsibility part of their task in life, less than Harvard or Yale or Princeton offered to their brothers. If two million were needed to do this, the alumne were willing to double their collecting job and go ahead with the men. The alumnz decision to ask for two million rather than one will be referred to the directors of the college and to the faculty before adoption by the Alumne Association. Plan Organization It was decided to open the drive imme- diately and let it culminate at the 1920 commencement. Some time during the year a Simultaneous Drive Week should be celebrated throughout the country. Pledges in the campaign, it was agreed, should be spread over a two-year period, so that five semi-annual payments should be possible, bringing the final payments in June, 1922. The districts for the campaign are to be strictly outlined and each district chairman is to be paramount in her own territory, rendering bi-monthly reports to the central campaign office, which shall direct and cooperate with the district chairmen, Publicity a Big Feature of the Work The session on Friday afternoon was presided over by Professor Donnelly and was devoted to a discussion of publicity, and how best to bring the purposes, his- tory and present activities of Bryn Mawr College before the public. Dean Maddi- son spoke of the days before the war, when Bryn Mawr had been more self- contained, and the publicity policy of the college had been limited to a modest an- nouncement of routine affairs and ruled by a quiet fear of the wrong kind of yel- low journalism. Miss Isabel Foster, Bryn Mawr ’15, a graduate of the Columbia School of Jour- nalism, and at present on the staff of the alert Waterbury Republican, spoke like a breeze through a newspaper city room. She said that if Bryn Mawr, about to make demands on the public for support and interest, wanted the cooperation of the press they had to accept newspaper Standards of what was interesting. They could not “command” space. They had to earn it by supplying interesting news, and becoming a good natured part of the great number of competing organizations that wanted a place on the front page. Mrs. Florence Brewer Boeckel, pub- licity adviser for the National Association of Public Health Nurses, and for the Na- tional Woman’s Party, spoke on Publicity as an Art, and urged the alumne to unite with the other colleges in empha- sizing some one point that would have a public appeal. She quoted Secretary Lane, of the Department of Interior, as saying that the United States today lacked a common objective just at a time when we should be most united on educa- tional ideals, and at war with the appall- ing illiteracy in the country. She sug- gested that Bryn Mawr should play some national part in bringing the country to a common campaign for education. “Let your appeal for money come in the rear of your campaign for national education.” Miss Ernestine Evans, publicity adviser to the Bryn Mawr Alumn@ Association, spoke on how Bryn Mawr could put its best foot forward during the coming year. | with President Thomas in- a aunaaiiatet scudhachs cae ok change professors. Arrange for Exchange Professors. and Scholarships | President Taft arrived in Canada on September 7th after a two monthy’ France and Italy, made for the The French, and particularly the Eng- lish, gave them a warm reception, but the Italians of the intellectual classes were anti-American and received them coldly, in one case giving them a decided rebuff. Dean Gildersleeve, acting as a special delegate of the Foreign Relations Com- mittee of the A. C. A., and Miss Choate, treasurer of the Rose Sidewick Memo- ‘rial Scholarship Fund, sailed with Miss Thomas and President Taft. Ata recep- tion given at Bedford College. by the British University women, Dean Gilder- sleeve spoke on the part college women can play in creating a better understand- ing between England and America. A joint committee of the A. C. A. and the British University Women met to ar range for scholarships and exchange pro- fessors. (Continued on page 4, column 2.)

Notice to Subscribers The effect of the threatened strikes and labor difficulties in the printing busi- ness, on the College News is an increase of $800 in the amount of the printer's rates contracted for last June. The News Board does not wish to raise the subscription rates, and therefore finds it necessary to omit the middle sheet temporarily until conditions become more settled. } ‘ . on ' } ie Professor Kari Jessen | In the death of Dr. Karl Detlev Jessen Bryn Mawr has lost a brilliant and distin- guished scholar. To the students who worked with him most and came to know him best, Dr. Jessen’s genius was ever a source of inspiration and delight. In these days, when the trend towards the practical and vocational in education is so strong, the academic world cannot but mourn the loss of one who clung tena- ciously and fearlessly to the older ideals of higher learning. The war taught us teamwork, and taught us how to drive together hard towards a common end. But when the war ended, the world settled back into a confusion of issues and cross-purposes, We say that we have sunk from the order of the war to the disorder of peace. But we must get a new realization that the war is still on in the broader baitle of civilization against anarchy. As Sec- retary Lane has said, if the common ob- jective that drove the Allies forward from 1914 to 1919 was to beat Germany, the objective of reconstruction should be education. The economic’ situation of the country has forced the colleges into a united struggle against the high cost of living. And Bryn Mawr, with her modest two millions, is taking her place at the side of others in this great national movement for the right of educational maintenance. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR (The editors do not hold themselves re- sponsible for opinions expressed in this column.) To the students of Bryn Mawr College: Your neighbors in Bryn Mawr and at Preston are needing you this year. Wouldn't you like to get acquainted with them by helping in one of the clubs or classes, or perhaps make a poster or help with the clerical work at the Milestone? Maybe you would just like to see what the others are doing. You are very wel- come any time at the Community Center. Helen Barrett, Director. NEW COURSES New courses offered this year are, His- _tory of Medieval Europe, Dr. David; Mineral Resources of the World, Dr. Bissell; Post Major Biology, Bio-chemis try, Dr. Brooks; History of the Tudors, Dr. Grey; Post Major Italian, Italian Drama of the 19th Century, Miss Riddell. Shaw ‘nameitat Ohahe: Part of Drive On Saturday morning it was announced that an Anna Howard Shaw Memorial Chair of Politics will be founded with the first hundred thousand dollars collected in the million dollar campaign. Mrs. George Gellhorn, of St. Louis, Bryn Mawr 1900 and a director on the board of the National American Suffrage Association, was made chairman of a spe- cial committee to collect funds for the memorial. An advisory committee com- posed of prominent suffragists who worked with Dr. Shaw for the passage of the Federal suffrage amendment, will be named next Thursday after the reception to Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst at the col- lege. Prof. Susan Miniahees who proposed the founding of the chair, said, “The Dr. Anna Howard Shaw Chair of Politics will have a great mission. We are at the com- mencement of a tremendous new era of political development. Women statesmen are needed as well as women voters. Bryn Mawr will train the highest type of American women for public leadership and political activity.” Intercollegiate Cooperation Part of Drive Acting-president Taft presided over the afternoon session, where the methods of other colleges in rdising funds were dis- cussed by Mrs. Barrett Andrews of Smith, Miss Elizabeth F. Johnson of Vassar, and Mr. Herbert Clark, chairman of the Phil- adelphia Harvard campaign. Bryn Mawr learned that the most modern business methods must be employed, and every channel possible used, to appeal, both to the loyalty and interest of alumne, and to the public, both rich and poor, for whom high standards of American educa- tion have both an idealistic and practical value. The Bryn Mawr News will print later, for the benefit of students and alumne, accounts of the Vassar, Smith, Princeton and Harvard campaigns. Mrs. Francis, of’ the Alumne Association, says that Bryn Mawr people must profit by news and experience from everywhere if they are to succeed in the task before them on behalf of “the best and fairest college of them all.” The conference closed, after tours of the buildings, an occasional excursion for “the room where she slept in 1900,” the “tree that was planted in '91” and many, many talks about the future and past of Bryn Mawr, with a dinner at the college inn, and a demonstration of Eurythmics of Jaques Dalcroze, Saturday evening, under the direction of P. de Montoliu. The Bryn Mawr Campaign has begun. What will your share be? (Continued from page 4, column 2.)

A’ three-day hike over the Presidential range, after several shorter hikes, was the climax of the trip.
