The passing on both teams was wild, and the game, as a whole, was scrappy. Within the first few minutes of play F. Billstein pushed in the first goal for the Seniors, followed almost immediately by one for '22 by O. Howard. Then for a period, marked by the speedy playing of E. Newell, ’21, at half-back, and the strong defense of the Junior fulls and goal, neither team gained until F. Billstein scored her second goal. °22 tied the score almost im- mediately with another goal by O. Howard, and for the rest of the half neither side scored, With the score at 2-2 both teams battled to a standstill in the second half, neither side being able to penetrate the opposing |: defense for a tally. Then, with five min- utes to play, came the most spectacular play of the game, when E. Cecil, dribbling down the field, passed to K. Walker, right inside, for a pick-up goal from the edge of the circle. During this half the splen- did: blocking of E. Newell, at left half, and the team work between K. Walker and E-. Cecil, backed by W. Worcester, were features of the Red play, while E. Dono- hue, R. Neel and G. Rhodes starred for the Dark Blue. Line-up—1921: E. Cecil, K. Walker,* C. Bickley, D. McBride, F. Billstein,** W. Worcester, E. Cope, E. Newell, C. Garri- son, M. P. Kirkland, M. Foot. 1922: E. Finch, M. Tyler, C. Baird, O. Howard,** A. Orbison, M. Krech, B. Clarke, E. Bliss, E. Donohue, R.

TO DISCUSS REORGANIZATION OF ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION Conference November 22nd to 23rd Reorganization of the Alumnae Associa- tion will be discussed at a conference held in Bryn Mawr, November 22nd and 23rd. A special committee of five has investi- gated the Alumnae Associations of other colleges, and will report their findings to a joint committee composed of the Board of Directors of the Alumnae Association, the Chairman of the Finance Committee and the Chairman of the Academic Com- mittee. The members of the Special Com- mittee are: Harriet Bradford, "15, Dean of Women at Leland Stanford University, of California (representing the West) ; Mrs. George Gellhorn (Edna Fischel, ’00), rep- resenting St. Louis and District 10; Mrs. Learned Hand (Francis Fincke, "97), rep- resenting New York and the National Committee; Mrs. Robert Walcott (Mary Richardson, 06), representing New Eng- land. The board hopes that Mrs. A. Mor- ris Carey (Margaret Thomas, ’89) will be the representative from the Southern Dis- tricts. A meeting of the Executive Board of the Alumnae will be held in Bryn Mawr on November 19th Vassar Presented French Tank The French Government is presenting a Tank to Vassar College “in recognition of the moral and physical contributions to the cause of the Allies made by Vas- sar graduates during the War,” says “The One hundred and fifty Vassar alumnae served France between 1914 and 1919 Vassar Miscellany News.” in RABINDRANETH TAGORE SYSTEM OF LITERAL MARKING ADOPTED BY BRYN MAWR President Thomas explained the new sys- tem of substituting literal for numerical grading in chapel, Monday morning, say- ing in part: “The study of our college grades was made by a Faculty Committee of three (Professor Donnelly as chairman; Profes- sor Kingsbury, and. Professor Tennent). This study covered nearly a year, and in- cluded a careful study of the after careers of all our Bryn Mawr European Fellows. It was proved that certain numbers were not used by the Faculty; that among other curious things, for instance, very few of you get the grade of 72, 73, 76, 77, 78. If your work deserves more than 65 the Fac- ulty very naturally gives you 70, and does not pay much attention to the numbers like 67 or 68. It is almost impossible to dis- criminate between 75 and 70 (72, 73, or 74), or between 75 and 80. therefore, that numerical grading in be- tween the great blocks, such as 60, 65, 70, etc. was worthless. We have now adopted the ‘literal system’—Highest Credit, between 95 and 100; H.C. (High Credit), 90 to 94: C. (Credit), 85 to 89; L.C. (Low Credit), 80 to 84; M. (Merit), 75 to 79; L.M. (Low Merit), 70 to 74; P. (Passed), 65 to 69; L.P. (Low Passed), 60 to 64; F. (Failed), below 60—and here we shall give you a numerical grade to help you to make up your deficiencies, In computing the grades, the office is instructed by the Fac- ulty to count a Low Passed as 62%, a Passed as 67%, “M” as 77%, and the other letter grades in like manner. Various test experiments have been made by calculating numerically the grades of the first ten Seniors, and the European Fellows, by the old and new system and the results esti- mated in numerical grades seem very much the same. We believe that our new system is going to be much more scientific.

Brown Robed Indian Contrast to Audience Clad in his brown Bengali robe, with a darker brown turban, Rabindranath Tagore made a picturesque contrast to the American audience who heard his lecture in the gymnasium, Friday evening, on “Vil- lage Mystics of Bengal.” He stood apart, not only by virtue of his appearance, his eastern dress, his calm face with the deep, quiet eyes and long gray hair and beard, but by the mysticism expounded in his lec- ture, foreign to the average western train of thought. His voice was musical, rising and falling in Oriental cadence. The idea of infinite love, made mani- fest in man, underlies the philosophy of the group of ascetic beggar poets, whose teach- ing Tagore set forth. “To be born a man is the greatest privilege given any crea- ture.” they say, “because God's will in giv- ing love finds completeness in man’s will returning that love—and love is the per- sonal expression of life in all its perfec- tion.” They sing, ‘{““When shall I meet him, the Man of my Heart? * * * * + = My longing is to meet you, my beloved; This longing is not only mine, but yours.” Primitive man, according to Tagore, be- lieved in gods as forces acting on him from outside. Then the idea of God’s immanence developed, tending, however, to become im- personal and abstract. “This conception,” he said, “finds votaries only among the intellectual, who do not feel the need of love and worship.” The man who first showed that the per- fection of God, infinite wisdom and love, dwells in every human personality, was Buddha. “To be good is incidental,” he taught. “To be good is only to reveal the infinite that lies in the soul.” The value (Continued on Page 2) RELATIVITY TO BE SUBJECT OF DR.

Time to Rise A birdie with a yellow bill Hopped upon my window sill; He could not call me sleepyhead, The Fifth had pulled me out of bed.

Rain The rain is raining all around, It falls on field and tree; We know it is not wet, because No yellow flag we see. Whole Duty of Hockey Players A hockey player must not speak When told she is a waddling freak; Her tie and stockings must be right, Her teeth should all be screwed in tight. Play Bridge Club upon club has sprung up at college, but still gaps in the system are to be found. The weighty problem of auction bridge, for instance, has not been dealt with, and is it not important that this socially important talent be organized? Consider the valu- able practise that could be gained from it by the major mathematics students in keep- ing their wits sharpened in between times. Think of the profitable hours spent by the Freshmen, coming, as they do, from the outside world, bringing new sources of vigor to Bryn Mawr. They, untrammeled by traditional local interests, burn the mid- night oil in keeping their minds centered on those things which will be of impor- tance in future life. We suggest that all this scattered talent be unified into a var- sity bridge team, made up from the groups already in training, and be coached by the major mathematics’ department. Might their motto be, “We live to learn, and learn to live.” Keep Off the Grass The semi-annual appeal must be made, so we will put it as concisely as possible: To the student—Avoid the soft turf, it will lure your thoughts into frivolous by- ways. To the “toddler’—Beware the tangled blades, they will catch your French heels. To the athlete—Never take short cuts, you need the exercise of trotting over the longest route. To the aesthete—Spare the greensward, so its spring beauty will be unmarred. To the college—Keep off the grass, it needs a rest. Rewrite News in Spanish Translating the News into Spanish is one of the exercises of the post-major Spanish class. They also translate modern prose pieces and plays, like Barrie's Rosalind. NEW ‘SCHEDULE. roLAss 88 23 | schedule. THE COLLEGE NEWS | The system has as its purpose the akan of congestion of class reunions necessary when the classes are as numerous as they have been for some time at Vassar and as they are becoming at Bryn Mawr. The Vassar Alumnae Association has used this “Dix Schedule” for four years and has found it very successful. Occasionally a class has wished to come out of its regular order, and in that case, at Vassar, it has been required to stay off the campus and hold its celebrations without the aid of the college. After the system is once established reunions come every five years for each class, each time with three of the classes which were in college at the same time with it. In four reunions each class will have twice seen all the classes which were in college with it. This schedule is read downward for the class reuning in each calendar year, and across for the calendar years in which each class reunes. The Board of Directors submits this schedule for your consideration. matter will be formally brought up at the annual meeting of the Alumnae Associa- tion. Mrs. Francis will welcome any expressions of, opinions from alumnae or The undergraduates. 1921/ 1922/1923 |1924|1926|1926/1027|1928|1929|1930|1031/1932|1933]1934|19: 1 8 sevadegeedecsafereederraferselegaafecwseceeleresfegafegsafersefeceaferes $9 |... -.--.

To the Editor of The College News: Guests visiting the library may be un- favorably impressed by “feet aloft on desks,” yet, after all, we do not arrange ourselves in the library to be gazed at, but to do serious study, the fruits of which may reach the outside world beyond Phila- delphia. I well remember being taught in one of the required courses in college that true concentration cannot be sustained effectually unless the feet are higher than the heart. If you believe that we lift our feet to air our silk stockings or to display their patterns, may I suggest that most of us will be willing to take steamer rugs to throw over them? Involved. Methodist Students Welcomed To the Editor of The College News: Whether or not you are a daughter of John Wesley, I would like through the columns of the News to extend to you a cordial welcome to “the little ivied church on the corner,” St. Luke’s Meth- odist Episcopal Church, Penn and Mont- gomery Avenues. Methodists of the col- lege are especially invited to be present on the first Sunday morning of every second month at Holy Communion. The first of these will be'on November 7th. Further plans for co-operation will be made through the new denominational committee of which Miss Elizabeth Vin- cent, ‘23, is the Methodist representative. I feel that it is vital for every student to keep in personal touch with the church, and I will therefore be glad of any assistance. The parsonage is next to the church on Penn Avenue; tele- phone Bryn Mawr 273 W. The hours of worship are: Sunday School, 9.45; morn- ing worship, 10.45; young peoples’ meet- ing, 7.00; evening worship, 7.45.

The officers are: Head of school, Gladys Leuba; secretary, Polly Butcher; editor of paper, Elizabeth Wilbur; busi- chairman of athletics, Patsy Kelley; chairman of order committee, Miriam Folwell; chairman of table committee, Caroline Gucker; chair- man of opening exercises, Frederika de Laguna. “Scraps and Scribbles” Published The first issue of “Scraps and Scrib- bles,” the Model School newspaper, was brought out on November 4th. The editor-in-chief is Elizabeth Wilbur, Class VI. “Scraps and Scribbles” is a two-page mimeograph sheet, which was founded last year by Fredericka de Laguna, who was its first editor. The first issue this Fall contains two poems, alumnae and athletic notes, two contributions from the primary, and a long reminiscence by B. Sparkman, called “Do You Remem- ber?” “Prehistoric Man,” a poem by Fred- erika de Laguna, is quoted below: “The Prehistoric Monkey-Man Lived many years ago. In every single living thing He had a dreaded foe. “He made axes, hatchets, cooking pots And hammers out of stone, And many curious, useful things Of antler or of bone. “We do not know just how he lived, His history is a mess, But from the things’ he left behind, His daily life we guess.” ; [UNIONS PROPOSED BY ALUMNAE Reprinted from the Sh disor ‘Geenrs, N obember, 1920 - At the alumnae meeting held on June 2, 1920, it was voted ro a committee be appointed to consider the form of schedule now used at Vassar for class reunions.

According to Miss Walker, the Japanese victory over Russia, in 1904, was consid- ered by some writers as a turning point in the domination of the whites. BENGAL POET AT BRYN MAWR (Continued from Page 1) of Buddha’s preaching was shown by the fact that it was not followed by stagna- tion of life, but by the development of in- stitutions, arts and sciences. The beggar mystics who carry on the philosophy, belong, said Tagore, to the 95 per cent. of British subjects in India, with less than elementary education. They know their small value in the world, but believe they have found wisdom and hap- piness in coming close to the heart of the great lover. They compare themselves in song to the vessels half filled, which sup- port the maidens when they swim in the river, while men of distinction are the full vessels, which stay useless on the shore. They feel themselves “flutes, through which God's breath of love has been breathed in music.” Tagore told at dinner with the English Club and at a reception after the lec- ture, aboyt his boys’ school in Shantine- ketan, the first one in India with a self- government system. The boys have their own court and mete out punishments to offenders, the worst being complete os- tracism, when the boy even eats apart from his companions. J. B. Pond, head of the Lyceum Bureau, in New York, accompanied Tagore to Bryn Mawr. Recent statistics show that more men in Harvard are specializing in English litera- ture than in any other subject, while eco- nomics stand second in popularity, and chemistry third. Compulsory chapel has again been adopted as a result of more than a two- thirds majority vote of the student body at Smith. 7 RED TRIUMPHS OVER GREEN IN FINALS OF PRELIMINARIES Seniors Show Strong Defense ae Wak te bk eee oF 8 Ol Seco] defeated the Sophomores, winning their way into the finals in ‘the second game of the preliminaries last Thursday. The game was hotly contested throughout, though both teams showed poor team work, The struggle started with a goal for ’21 almost immediately, by D. McBride, but after a considerable scrimmage the Sopho- mores countered goal by C. McLaughlin, after a run down a clear field. With the score tied, both teams seemed in a dead- lock. Time and time again M. Adams. brought the ball down the field, only to meet with ’21’s strong defense, and to have it lost by wild shooting of her team. Finally the Seniors’ greater aggressiveness availed them, so that C. Bickley was able to push in a second goal, and not long afterwards the Seniors scored again by the combined efforts of the team. The second half began with greater de- termination on the part of the Sophomores, so that meeting the unflagging defense of '21, every shot was fought for. Again M. Adams proved herself the chief supporter of the Sophomore forward line, at length scoring with a clean shot from the outfield. Throughout the rest of the game ’23’s de- fense proved impenetrable, H. Rice many times stopping E. Cecil’s fast dribbles down the field. On the whole, the playing of the Seniors was even, but unextraordi- nary, while that of the Sophomores, at first unorganized, improved immensely in the second half, ‘ Line-up—1921: E.

RED FOURTH WINS WAY TO FINALS CONQUERS ’23 IN PRELIMINARIES In the last game of the preliminaries on Fourth, last Thursday, ’21 defeated '23 with a score of 5-0. The Green team was outplayed from the start, and never seri- ously threatened the Red goal. During the first half the play was almost entirely in the Green territory, and it was only through the strong defense of K. Strauss at center-half, and H. Dunbar, full-back, that more goals were not scored. S. McDaniel proved quick on the forward line, which was messy and showed a lack of organization. J. Brown, full-back, starred for the Seniors, proving to be the strength of the left side of the field, while K. Johnston was good at right inside, scoring two out of the five goals. Line-up—1921: E. Bliss, K. Johnston,** I. Lauer,* E. Collins, G. Lubin,* H. Ben- nett, P. Ostroff,* B. Warburg, J. Brown, D. Klenke, E. Boswell. 1923: M. Carey, E. Scott, E. Ericson, S. McDaniel, F. Childs, K.

After several minutes of play in center- field H. Nicoll, '22, found a hole in the light blue defense and tore through for the first goal. Depending on the speedy co-operation of M. Faries and F. Begg, ’24 took the offensive and kept the play in Sophomore territory, B. Howe tying the score with a clear shot. Owing to the superb blocking of E. Donohue, Junior captain, the Freshmen were unable to score again until the end of the period, when F. Begg evaded the full-back and shot a goal, Receiving a pass from the center bully, B. Howe made a long run through a broken field, and shoved in the third Freshman tally within a half minute after their second. The half ended with the score 3-1 in favor of '24. In the second half the stéed and per- sistent interference of F. Bliss and M. Krech, Junior halves, checked the onslaught of the fast Freshmen wings, and kept the play in the center of the field. E. Finch, '22, right wing, tied the score with two goals, and made the deciding tally in the extra five-minute period. Except for A. Nicol, '22, forwards were slow getting started. ’24’s attack was speedy, but their passing and shooting ineffectual at the circle, Line-up—1922;_E._Finch,*** _M._Tyler,* C. Baird, A. Nichol,* A.

FRESHMEN CONQUER '22 ON 4TH Win 3-0 in Easy Battle Defeating the Juniors 3-0, ’24 crashed through to victory on Fourth, last Friday, in the second game of the preliminaries, The first game was a tie. The Freshman forward line was speedy and outplayed the Dark Blue line which was slow and lacked team work, taking the ball down time and again only to lose it to the Freshman full-backs. E. Brown, at half-back, played a good game for the Juniors, blocking well and covering the center of the field, while H. Stevens was good on the forward line. Line-up—1922: H. Woodruff, A. Gable, H.

The Dark Blue outclassed the Light Blue at every point, and was able to score almost at will. The Junior team jumped ‘into the lead with a goal by A. Dom early in the first half, and for the rest of the period no further score was made. J. Palache starred for '22 at full-back, covering the right side of the field, while M. Voorhees was speedy on the forward line, taking the ball down and shooting well for goal. During the second half '22 scored almost at will, making five out of the total six goals in this period. The Freshman for- ward line was speedy but lacked team work, and shot wildly in the circle. Line-up—1922: M. Crosby, M. Voor- hees,*** ©. Howard,* P. Nofcross, A. Dom,** L. Grim, P. Smith, M. Kennard, J. Palache, C. Cameron, V. Liddell. Sub- stitute—Jennings for Grim. 1924: O. Wiches, E. Hales, B. Borden, B. Price, J. Lawrence, B. Ives, V. Miller, K. Gallway, L. Davies, S. Lewitz, P. Coyne. Substitutes—J. Palmer for B.

McNeely, '24, proved the only ob- stacle to the onslaught. In the hard fight- ing around the goal H. Jennings was the mainstay of the Dark Blue defense, and B. McRae dribbled fast for the Freshmen, but frequently lost the ball in the circle. Light Blue Reverses First Defeat Fighting fiercely against one defeat, '24 turned the tables on '22 with a 3-2 score on Saturday morning, in the second game of the preliminaries, in which both teams showed scrappy playing and lack of organ- ization. Line-up—1922: Burns, Burgess, Stiles, Hand, Dom, Gardner, Hay, Hall, Jennings, Yeatman, Rhett. Substitutes—Rupert for Hall (first game), Gable for Gardner, Speer for Yeatman (second game). 1924: McRae, Palmer, Ford, Hale, Moli- ter, Pearce, Mosle, Shiras, Bingeman, Mc- Neely, Neville.

With the Red Moth team scoring 1 to 0 against the Griffin’s green players, the first sixth team match game in the history of Bryn Mawr was staged last Wednesday before a wildly enthusiastic grandstand. The goal on which hung the fate of the Senior sixth was scored by K. Cowen, cen- ter forward, during the first half of the game. As the ball crashed between the goal posts, cheers of wild enthusiasm broke from '21’s section, where L. Reinhardt, col- lege song leader; E. Cope, president of the Athletic Association, and E. Donnelly, with the team mascot, were among the ardent rooters for the red-skirted sixth. Sophomore fans, no less enthusiastic, spurred their team on with cheer and song, but an impermeable defense, Goddard and Gates starring, proved the green’s trump card, and the score was held 1-0 for the Seniors. Line-up—1921: F. Kniffin, T. Williams, H. Farrell, K. Cowen, E. Sheppard, D. Wycoff, E. Harris, D. Lubin, L. Cadot, M. Weisman, L. Wilson. 1923: B. Kilroy, R. Geyer, E. Newbold, K. Stiles took her line}. H. Millar, D. Fitz, F. Knox, K. Shumway, C. Geddard, S. Archbald, 1. Gates, A.

At the outset '23 saved its only id shot by M. Schwartz, right wing, after J. Spurney, right half, backing the formidable red forward line had registered the first score. From this point on the play cen- tered before the Sophomore goal. Scrappy | fighting on the part of the green defense, M. Bradley and E. Child blocking the goal, characterized the game. Although A. Tay- lor, at left, fully proved a sturdy opponent, the* 1923 forward line evaded her only to miss a goal through careless aiming. At the end of the first half the score was 5-1. \E. Kales, right inside, starred during the second half, repeatedly carrying the ball spectacularly to a goal. E. Jay, right wing, with rapid passing, strengthened the right side of the field and made it the most pow- erful. '23, on the whole, was disorganized, half-back and full-backs overlapping, and failed to make a concerted attack. Line-up—1921: E. Jay, E. Kales,****** L. Beckwith,** M. Smith*** (for C. Mottu, captain), H. James,* J. Spurney.* J. Pey- ton, M. Morton (for E. Mills), C. Garri- son, A. Taylor, M. Morrison. 1923: M. Schwarz,* L. Mills, L. Rich- ards (captain), I. Beaudrias, H. Pratt, F. Matteson, J. Ward, F. Knox, E. Kellogg, E. Child, M. Bradley. RED THIRD WINS WAY TO FINALS Defeats ’23 in Two Games Playing a hard, fighting game, the Senior third won the first game of the prelimi- naries last Wednesday, defeating '23 by a score of 4-3. The Senior full-backs played a strong game, repeatedly pushing the for- wards into the goal, where they failed to take adantage of their many opportunities to score. J. Lattimer, '2],.dribbled speed- ily, taking the ball down again and again, while M. Holt, at full-back, was the strength of the Sophomore team, often stopping the rush of the Red forwards. Seniors Win Second Match 3-0 In the last game of the preliminaries, Saturday morning, the Senior third de- feated the Sophomores with a 3-0 score in a quick passing game. In the first half ’21’s strong forward line was in evidence, winning two goals in quick succession, through E. Collin’s clever work at wing. The Sophomore defense then rallied, and with K. Strauss proving the mainstay, held the Seniors to one more goal. Line-up—1921: J. Lattimer, M. Smith, M. Archbald, V. Evans, E. Collins, K. Woodward, M. Morton, C. Barton, E. Godwin, M. S. Goggin, H. Stone. Substi- tue—H. Hill for J. Lattimer (second game). 1923: F. Young, H. Price, M. Dunn, R. Beardsley, D. Meserve, F. Harrison, K. Strauss, A. Fraser, H. Wilson, H. Dunbar, A. Hay. Substitutes—M.

DAVID “Robert Curthose, Duke of Nor- mandy,” is the subject of a recent book by Dr. Charles Wendell David, Associate Professor of European History, pub- lished by the Harvard University Press in October. : : “Dr. David has made his own re- searches and drawn his own conclusions directly from the sources when the evi- dence permitted, thus providing a volume that will probably rank as the definite life of Robert,” says a review of the book. Robert,. eldest son of William the Con- queror, was popularly known as _ the “Sleepy Duke.” “By placing Robert in the setting of his time, the author presents a compact survey of western Europe at the end of the eleventh and beginning of the twelfth centuries. He never loses sight of the larger setting of his subject despite the necessity of weaving an intricate tale. “For the serious student of history, the volume is provided with copious foot- notes that will guide him through the original and the secondary material, with succinct discussions of debated points. There are also seven appendices; a map and a reproduction of Abbot Sugar’s window complete the scolarly apparatus of the volume.” Dr. David’s book is now in the New Book Room of the Library. NEW SYSTEM OF LITERAL GRADES (Continued from Page 1) to be tried for three years, and during this time a committee of the Faculty will continue to study and to improve our ex- amination curves. As we realize that the students during these three years, until they gain confidence in the new system, will be anxious to compare their numerical grades with those of earlier classes grad- uating under the old system, I am. sure that, if desired, the grades of the first ten and the European Fellows for three} years will be computed numerically, each literal grade being weighed by the designated number.

Y., last week-end. The Junior dele- gate will report on the conference at the Self-Government meeting next’ month. The honor system, cut system and chap- eron rules were among the most impor- tant questions discussed at the conference, at which fifty colleges, situated east of the Mississippi, were represented. The second delegate was chosen to represent the Un- dergraduate Association because many questions coming under that association here are governed by student government associations in other colleges. “IMPORTANCE OF RELIGION IN SERVICE,” DR. MUTCH’S TOPIC Dr. Andrew Mutch, of the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church, speaking in chapel last Sunday evening, defended the purely spiritual function of the church which is so often the butt of the criticism of social reformers. “There is great truth,” said Doctor Mutch, “in Wesley’s saying that ‘No man was ever converted in cold feet.’ But social reformers often forget that when you have made the world fit to live in you have not necessarily made man fit to live in the world. “If woman is no longer a mere chattel of brutal men it is because of Jesus Christ,” Doctor Mutch declared. “The best friends of the unfortunate have always been the men and women of religious mo- tive, the followers of Jesus Christ. “Life develops from within,” said Doctor Mutch, in conclusion. “It takes a high- souled man to move the masses even into a cleaner stye._ Social service always has to go deeper than outward circumstance.” COMMUNITY CENTER OPENS CAMP “This past summer, from July 16th to August 16th, the Community Center had its first regular summer camp,” says the Center in its first issue. Camp Hilldale was the name of the camp, which was situated on a hill above Brandywine Creek, out near West Chester. CALENDAR Friday, November 19th 800 P. M.—Sophomore Play in the gym- nasium.

Agricultural Institute, and in Allahabad charge of the leper colony at Allahabad, India, will’ lead chapel next Sunday even- ing. Mr. Higginbottom spoke at Bryn Mawr in 1914, and again last November. He has studied at Princeton and Amherst. Sent to take charge of the leper colony at Allahabad, Mr. Higginbottom recognized India’s need for modern agricultural meth- ods to make her people self-supporting, and founded the school which now has a hun- dred resident students. The Maharaja of Gwalior recently placed Mr. Higginbottom in charge of the agricultural developments in his province, and sets aside $25,000 a year for Mr. Higginbottom’s use in this work, On the Allahabad farm Brahmans of the highest caste work side by side with the lowest caste men. The crops on Mr. Higginbottom’s farm are said to net three or four times as many bushels an acre as those on the adjoining native farms. TWO-WEEK CAMPAIGN WILL FOLLOW FINANCE VESPERS The annual Finance Vespers to explain the organizations on the Christian Asso- ciation budget, was led by E. Hobdy, ’22, in Taylor Hall, last Sunday, and will be followed by a two-week campaign. Octavia Howard, '22, spoke first on the Federation Secretary of Foyer for foreign students in Geneva, Switzerland. Bates House, which is entirely supported by Bryn Mawr, and the Bryn Mawr Com- munity Centre, Dean Smith stressed as the two organizations for which the Christian Association is the chief contributor. Miss Hartshorn, a teacher from Miss Tsuda’s school, Japan, illustrated the Chris- tian influence in the school by telling of the change in per cent of Christians enter- ing and leaving it. Of the entering stu- dents 15 per cent. are Christians, said Miss Hartshorn, 25 per cent. have heard of Christianity, and the rest are ignorant. When they leave school usually 50 per cent. are Christians, and of the graduates still more. Miss Abby Kirk, principal of Miss Kirk’s school and Greek tutor at Bryn Mawr, read a letter from Miss Tsuda’s school, appealing for an American teacher. PRESTON NEEDS MORE WORKERS Two students are much needed at the Preston Reading Room, in Haverford, to teach cooking, on Monday afternoons.

Fleisher, 03 (Mrs. David Ries- man), as chairman, will hold a conference with the conference committee of the Un- dergraduate Association on Monday, No- vember 22nd. The alumnae wish to find out the under- graduate point of view in regard to the present entrance requirements, the orals and the working of the cut rule. The un- dergraduate conference committee consists of two Seniors, J. Peyton and C. Garrison, and two Juniors, M. Tyler and K. Gardner, and the alumnae committee is unlimited as to number and personnel. SCIENCE CLUB ELECTS SUB-OFFICERS Last Friday the Science Club elections to sub-offices were held. The constitution committee was chosen, consisting of F. Billstein, '21 (chairman); E. Cope, ’21, and M. Foote, ’21, and H.
