The working girls are chosen from plants in Philadelphia, and the‘college stu- Bryn Mawr and the University of Penn- sylvania. The present delegates from Bryn Mawr are S. McDaniel, ’23, and M. Fairies, ‘24. In the meeting on Saturday, the Com- mission discussed “What the working girl can contribute to the céllege student and vice versa.” They decided that the work- ing girl can impress the reality of indus- trial, conditions at first’ hand, .a sense of responsibility for an education, and the college student’s duty as a consumer and citizen to improve working: conditions and to mold public opinion, The college student could, they thought, show the value of an ing up industrial standards. After the discussion, the delegations ‘had tea in the Radnor sitting room. This’ is the first meeting of the Commission at Bryn Mawr. The next meeting will be in three weeks, at Swarthmore College. — DR.

Democracy “Flourishes Bryn Mawr is the, college that boasts no sorofities :and no secret societies. . In other words, Bryn Mawr clubs are all dem- ocratic.: This year a new .organization revived this spirit in a way they claimed tobe idealistic. The annual election of members to the club held last week resulted in the election of one Fréshman member, the. only candidate not blackballed. What could be more democratic than this four- ishing club? “The head ‘to plan, the heart to feel, the hand to execute” Looking back over’ the. past year the News board can count more than one step that has made for progress. Left for the first time without the invaluable help of the Faculty member to whom. the board has always looked for inspiration the year has been a crucial one.

To the most satisfactory gown a prize of $25. -was.-awarded by Dr. Goldthwaite. There were more than a hundred entries. “A Million a la Mode,” “Three Inches from the Floor,” and “Alice through the Boudoir. Glass,” three of. the skits written by the Undergraduates; won first, second and third prizes for the success with which they emphasized the point of propriety in dress. “The. goal toward which ‘the dress reform’ points,” declares the New York Sun for April 28, “isa mode chic enough for any critical eye.” Of the jersey uni- forms now popular at Bryn Mawr,. the Sun correspondent says: “It has taken Smith by storm. It appears at any hour of the: day or night on the campus on various shades and various colors, skirts knife-pleated, accordion-pleated and_ plain.

MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE OFFERS PLAN T@ the Editor of THe CoLLece NkEws: There was a great deal of feeling last year, and perhaps there has been more this year, that C. A. girls were not fulfilling their purpose. After looking their Freshmen up: in the fall, taking them to the C. A. recep- tion and chapel and sending them: flowers for Freshman Show, the majority of :C. A. “-girls have considered-their-responsibility—at an end, withthe result that they have been of practically no help to the Fréshman. This year the Membership Committee has decided to call the people who write to Freshmen Student Advisors instead of the. old, rather meaningless name'of C. A. Girls. With this néw more dignified name, per- haps the Student Advisors will follow up their letters by helping the Freshmen all through the year in the many ways which are possible, If, for instance, they help the Freshmen to work ahead and plan their courses for- the entire four years, they will be justifying their existence to a greater extenf than they have in the past. Perhaps, also, the Freshmen will look upon their Advisors as sources of help rather than as the social obligations which C, A.’Girls seem‘ to have been. ; In making the Student Advisors really accomplish their aim, the committee hopes that it may have the co-operation of the Christian Association and of the. whole college. THE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE. © History Club to fees To Tue CoLiece News: The History Club has felt for some time that the present limitations on its mem- bership excludes many people whose inter- est would be a great asset to the club and, therefore, it has decided to open the mem- bership to all who want to join. The club plans: to affiliate with the Ifftercollegiate Liberal League, an organization governed by students, which has just been formed to encourage intelligent discussion and to provide speakers on economic and political questions. This will not do away with the former activities of the club, “nor does it mean that there will be formal debates with required preparation. It will be the policy- of the club to welcome all those who are sincerely - interested, and who will be re- sponsible for-attending meetings and paying “such dues as are necessary. Members will be admitted-only: atthe ‘beginning of each semester, and all meetings, éxcept large lectures, will be closed.

SPILLMAN a Farm labor and production are far- teaching problems today, according to, Dr. Spillman, associate editor of Farm Journal, who spoke. in Taylor Hall last Wednesday evening “ander the auspices of the World Citizenship Association. can , Quoting “figures to show "the de¢rease in farm population in the fast’ forty years, Dr. Spillman’ éxplained the changes brought about bythe introduction of labor-saving tools which require few men to ‘operate. However, harid labor, which is almost .im- possible to. get, is still required for harvest- ing, said Dr. Spillman’ A movement has been instituted’ throughout the country. to meet this demand by training high school’ boys to work in the summer. Another factor that discourages. farmers is the middiemen’s excess profits, which make the farmer operate practically at a loss. Farm Bureaus fo protect the farmers have already been’ organized, but if the high cost of liv- ing is to be brought down, the co-operation president. of the consumers is necessary.

Nature long ago evolved the “‘cold light.’”’ The firefly, according to Ives and” Coblentz, radiates ninety-six percent light and only four percent heat. Man’s best 7 radiates more than ninety percent heat. An English physicist once said that if we einer the fire- fly’s secret, a boy turning a crank could light up a whole street. Great as isthe advance in lighting that has been made through research within the last twen : wastes far too much energy in_obtaining light. This problem of the “cold light”’ cannot be solved merely years, man: and existing lamps. We should still be burning candles if chemists and physicists had confined their researches to the _ For these reasons, the Research .Lahkoratories of the General Electric Company are not limited in the scope of their investigations. Research consists in oe questions of the right kind and in finding the answers, n tter .-where they may lead. _ What makes the firefly glow? How does a firefly’s light differ in color from that of an electric arc, and why? The . answers to such questions may or may not be of practical value, but of this we may be sure—it is by dovetailing the results of “‘theoretical?’ investigations along many widely separated lines that- we arrive at most of our modern ‘practical’ discoveries. ° fas What will be the light of the future? Will it be’ like that foe of the firefly Or like that of the dial on a luminous watch? +. Will it be produced in a lamp at present undreamied of, or will it come from something resembling our present incan- d ‘lamp?

Cecil, ’21, declared, speaking in Chapel last Sunday evening. “The world, too, is .in need of people who have the courage to choose the things: worth while, and who know how to do them.” Those who consider the church not worth belonging to, Dr. Cecil compared to those who believed in the cause of a war, and were willing to fight, but refused to undergo the necessary training. If you are unwilling to consider the church worth while you separate yourself from the most valuable and the greatest ‘people in the world. “Being is more important than doing,” Dr. Cecil explained, showing that cultivation of character as_wellas a--useful life were among the things worth while. 8.00 P.

Speaking in Chapel. after the announce- ments of awards Friday morning, Presi-- rdent Thomas" said in part: “Universities in all countries. and en- lightened, governments have always recog-| nized that. prizes, praise, recognition and honors are very important in persuading young people to enter on this straight and narrow path which is, I assure you, one of the most wonderfully rewarding paths in the whole world. “We often look back with longing to the achievements of'that little Athenian repub- lic. that. during: two. or three centuries cre- ated such glorious poetry and prose; drama, philosophy, architecture, sculpture and all sorts of ‘things that: we have not been able to equal since. It seems to have stimu- lated Greek genius by a wonderful system of prizes of no value at. all in themselves— a wreath of laurel or wild parsley—but of such ‘glory to the man who’ won it that his children and grandchildren and remotest descendants were all horored because of him. .“I often think that if we Americans should begin now to honor scholars, not only students, but professors and investiga- tors, and place them in popular estimation above multi-millionaires and successful men of business, we should thereby create many great scholars. “But to: blaze the- way you must see that rall positions of honor and influence “aré open for competition to women. In almost in subordinate positions with no chance of getting any further. It must be your work to set free the intellect, the public spirit, the genius for scholarship; the aptitude for research that have been lying dormant and undeveloped in women dtring centuries. “And I want to say before closing that we are very, very proud of this year’s seniors who have done so well and of our whole student body. In coming back to you after an absence of fifteen months, I really had forgotten’ what:a wonderful thing You are different, and really and truly so much nicer even than I thought you were® VASSAR STUDENTS SPEND $700 YEARLY BESIDE COLLEGE FEES Clothes Claim Large Per Cent. of Allowance—Travel and Food Next Seven hundred dollars is the average yearly expenditure of the average Vassar ‘| student, in addition to the college fees of board-and tuition. Facts as to the average income and expenditure were established by expense accounts kept by about, one-third of the students at Vassar for three months this year; the investigation was under the supervision of the Department of Eco- nomics. Seniors spend’ most of all the four classes;/ Juniors spend next most, .and Freshmen least of all. :“The gradual _in- crease,” says the New York Sum for March 13, “is supposedly due to the fact that ae is put on the individual girl as she proceeds through college. Freshmen’s. parents probably buy. a large proportion of their clothes for them, whereas the Seniors “~— purchase their own.” Individual éxsenditures over the three months’ period varied from $31 to $1335, the: average being $100.. More than half of the| - total amount went to clothing, in which again individual expenditures vary from $1.00 to $1084.50. Of other expenses 14 percent. of the it total sum was spent for traveling, 14 per cent. for food and recreation, 8 per cent. for incidentals*and 3 per“ cent‘. for church and charity.
