SECURES POPULAR SPEAKERS TO CELEBRATE 6TH ANNIVERSARY Week-end—Conference- Promises Well In connection with its annual week-end Conference, the Christian Association will celebrate the sixth anniversary of its founding out of the Christian Union and the Christian League next week. Presi- Dr. Howland of Buffalo, Dr. Barton, Miss SERVIA MUST NOT BE CRUSHED Mrs. Pankhurst Tells of Her Work in England and of the Servian Women “The world owes more to small nation- alties than the large ones realize’, said Mrs. Pankhurst to a large audience in Taylor Hall on Friday afternoon, Febru- ary 25th. For this reason, she said, she came to America to plead for relief work, by which the Servian nation might be saved from annihilation. “We want the moral support of Amer- ica,” she said, “for small countries,” The gallant spirit which has made Servia fight for liberty ‘in order that she may civilize herself’, she continued, makes it imperative that Servia should not be merged with any other nation. Through three disastrous wars, Mrs. Pankhurst said, the Servian women have taken the place of men, doing all the civil work, and in some cases even fighting; besides this they have kept alive the folk-lore, music and poetry of their people. She pointed out that France in her impover- ished state, had given the island of Cor- sica for the Belgian refugees, and that it is the duty of America to justify her neu- trality by keeping them alive. Describes Her Own Work During the War Perhaps the most interesting part of of her own work during the war, in re- tute methods for training women to take places in business and in finance, so that | satisfy their great desire to serve their ‘country. She also described the munition | factory, which she had seen in France, where women were skillfully taking the ‘places of men. it was this sight, she said, | which had inspired her on her return to. England to organize a procession of 5000 / women who offered their services to the country for the making of ammunition |and were accepted. | The war, Mrs. Pankhurst concluded, | has taught men to appreciate the good to us women faith in our brothers”. Applebee and several of the Alumne& | who have been most influential in the. work of the C..A. are to be among the | speakers at various meetings, to which | all alumngw members have been invited. | On Wednesday, March 6th, the exact 1918 WINS FIRST GAME IN FINALS Playing Slow—Fouls Many anniversary of the beginning of the Chris- | tian Association, the usual nine-thirty meeting will be held in Rockefeller Hall, | and will be intended as an opening of the conference and celebration. N. Mc- Faden, "17, will address all committee members and all Freshmen. Dr. Coffin, of the Madison Avenue Pres- byterian Church of New York, one of the most noted speakers at summer confer- ences, will conduct a special service on Friday evening in Taylor. Dr. Coffin is who will lead the Sunday evening service, in conducting the conference. On Saturday afternoon Miss Appplebee will give a tea in the Gymnasium at which the members of the C. A. will meet the speakers. That evening a mass meet- ing will be held in Taylor. President Thomas, Dr. Barton, Elsie Deems, ‘10, Hilda Smith, "10, Leila Houghteling, ‘11, and Miss Applebee are to tell of the ©. A. as they have seen it. On Sunday Leila Houghteling, ‘11, will lead special vespers service. The speaker for that evening will be Dr. Howland. 1918 won the first game of the water- ‘polo finals from 1919 with a score of 3-0. | The game was very different from the jones between 1917 and 1918, lacking their ‘fast playing and good headwork.

Dr. Steiner has made an ex- tended study of group and race psychol- ogy and is one of the leading sociologists of to-day. Among his works on immigra- tion are, “On the Trail of the Immigrant” and “The Immigrant Tide”. He is a noted authority on the subject, having devoted much time improving conditions at Ellis Island. Influenced by Tolstoi A native of Vienna, Dr. Steiner was educated in the Jewish religion. As a young man in college, however, he came to know the works of Tolstoi, which so impressed him that he determined to know Tolstoi himself. He set out for Russia with his pockets empty except for a letter of introduction. “I went”, he says, “to see the man who taught religion in terms I understood, and which I thought I could accept and practise”. Dr. Steiner’s book, “‘Tolstoi the Man”, came directly out of this visit and records his impressions of Tolstoi, and Tolstoi’s influ- ence on him. | Thirty years ago Dr. Steiner came to | America, where he has made his way | against tremendous difficulties, working jat first as a labouring man in mills and _ factories. '1917 HEADED TOWARDS ALL-ROUND ATHLETIC CHAMPIONSHIP 1917 leads in the race for all-round ath- ‘letic champion by 68 points, having 108, | while their nearest rival, 1918, has 44 /points. The points which have been won fare: 1917-——-First and second team champion- ‘ship in Hockey; first team doubles cham- |pionship, second team singles champion- ‘ship and College champion in Tennis; ‘swimming championship and second indi- vidual place, 9 B.M.’s and 2 records. 1918—Third team championship in Hockey; first team singles championship ‘in Tennis; third place in the swimming |meet and third individual place; B.M.’s; 1 record. 1919-——Second place in the swimming /meet and first individual place; 6 B.M.’s; 1 record. 1916—4 B.M.’s. Totals—1916, 4; 1917, 107; 1918, 44; 1919, 31.

CHENEY’S RESIGNATION BRINGS UP QUESTION OF SELF-GOV POLICY The question of accepting the resigna- tion of R. Cheney, '18, from the office of Treasurer of the Students’ Association for Self-Government was still undecided at the end of the long meeting on Monday night. After hearing Miss Cheney’s rea- sons for resignation and the five possible grounds for refusing or accepting this res- ignation as outlined by the President, M. Russell, '16, the Association voted to con- sider, for better understanding of the main question, the attitude on honor- reporting. Reporting Voted Not Compulsory As a result of the whole discussion it was decided, first, that members of the Association other than the officers should not be required to report offenses of in- dividuals against Self-Government. Sec- ondly, the motion that officers of the As- sociation should be required to report all offenses which came to their notice through direct or indirect evidence was defeated. It was stated, however, that these resolutions did not regard testi- mony requested under Resolution III, which states that the Board can require testimony and inflict punishment for re- fusal of same. This-action of the Asso- ciation removed every check upon offend- ers except their own sense of honor and the possibility of others reporting them. | It was said that such a radical result | had been brought about by the confusion jof a split ballot and not by the general | desire of the Association. C. Kellen, '16, | therefore moved that all members of the Association, both as officers and as indi- | viduals, be held responsible for seeing | infringements reported, but, since such a | notion involved the repealing of the reso- lutions ‘already passed, it was not in | order, Water-Polo Adjourns Meeting It was felt that in the absence of the | persons who had left the meeting on ac- | count of water-polo no important business |should be decided and the meeting was jadjourned.

Some, the Radicals, called loudly for “individual liberty’. They were Utopians unwilling to face the fact that the highest standard of ethics is not universal. Those who have low standards will break rules, deter- mined from the first not to report. To allow such license is to sacrifice to an exaggerated ideal of individual liberty the good of the community. The second class were oligarchs. They realized the need of government, but wished the responsibility of this to de- volve on a few. Many of these took their stand from pure laziness. They them- selves were unwilling to report infringe- ment of the law, therefore they would elect officers who would bear the burden of unpleasant duties. The third class combined the demo cratic ideal of equal responsibility with a practical method of gaining good govern- ment. They showed the absurdity of the question-begging phrases, “spy” and “tell- tale’—and showed that responsibility to the Association means more than respon- sibility for personal conduct. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR (The editors do not hold themselves responsible for opinions expressed in this column) News Fails to Distinguish Academic Honors To the Editor of ‘‘The College News’’: In the issue of “The College News” for February 17th, I find, for the third time since( mid-April, an announcement of the award to me of a Fellowship. Now “The News” never has been very strong on grasping distinctions in academic honors; for instance, Miss Greene, the present fellow in Semitic languages, has recently been heralded as holding a scholarship; and among the items recorded in the ca- reer of one of the British scholars, one reads Mathematical TRIPES (sic!); s0 what wonder that after three an- nouncements “The News” has not yet spoken exactly of this foreign Fellowship. The announcements in question are as follows: April. 22, 1915 “a prize of $800 from the American School of Classical Research”. (Note the magnificent if meaningless title of the mythical institu- tion!) April 29, 1915 “the Research Fellowship given by the American School | of Archeology at Athens”. February 17, 1916 ship in the American Athens”. Being a person averse to unnecessary | attentions, I have never asked to have any announcement made of this award, “a Fellow- Academy at even though I am proud of being the first | woman to hold the Fellowship. But since | “The News” loves to dwell on the sub- ject, I desire to prevent further garbling | of the truth. Will you please state that examination, awarded by the Archeolog- ical Institute of America to be held in the American School of Classical Studies in Athens. In conclusion, may I suggest that when “The News” desires to report academic honors it make some effort to learn from authoritative sources just what may be the nature of such honors. Eleanor Ferguson Rambo. Individual Liberty and College Principle Ty the Editor of ‘The College Néws’’: One of the principles of the authorities of the College which seems to be little re- garded by the students now-a-days is that Sunday be kept as a day of rest. No as- sociation meetings, nor academic appoint- ments are allowed (not even ice cream may be delivered at the College). No regular exercise can be taken on Sunday, the tennis courts, athletic fields, and swimming pool may not be used. The Christian Association has always stood for the observance of Sunday, but feels there is need of reminding its members of its position. The Christian Associa- tion Board therefore takes this means of stating its firm conviction on the subject. The board recognizes the right of the in- dividual to liberty in her views and ac- tion. Committee meetings, board meet- ings, try-outs, and rehearsals for plays, however, place an obligation on some who might not otherwise work on Sunday. Even if none of the members of a com- mittee disapprove of such a meeting, the committee should think of the precedent they are establishing and the principle of the College they are disregarding. Sun- day is becoming more and more a day for doing odd jobs instead of a day for rest and worship. We should like to urge as a board that the members of the Chris- tian Association realize that Sunday is one of their greatest opportunities “to strengthen their religious life”.

SELF-GOV SCORES PEM WEST Fire Drill Follows '18’s Victory Routed from the lethargy which fol- lowed the excitement of the water polo, Thursday night, by the sound of the fire bell, Pembroke West assembled wearily in the front hall. E. Holcombe, ’17, in the double capacity of fire captain and head | proctor, merely remarking on towels which were not wet, passed over the fire- | drill and took up the cudgels of Self-Gov- | ernment against Pembroke West. She said that the Self-Government Board had recently summoned her and complained not only of the noisiness of Pembroke West, but also of its failure to report the breaking of rules. Miss Hol- combe said she thought these faults were due to general carelessness rather than to ‘particular individuals. The proctors have been more alert and the Hall somewhat | quieter this week. | SPECIAL MEETINGS DURING _CON- | FERENCE WEEK The Christian Association Board will | hold special meetings every morning at | 8.15 during the week of March 5th instead | of the regular board prayer meetings.

THE COLLEGE NEWS JUNIORS AND SENIORS DROP OUT IN PRELIMINARIES 16 and '19 Slow Until Second Half ~ The second water polo match between 1916 and 1919 came off on Thursday night, ending in a victory for 1919, with a score of 3-5. During the first half F. Howell scored 1 goal, and L. Peters 2 goals for 1919, and a good defense was put up by A. Thorndike, who also made a pretty pass from goal. It was not till the second half that the game showed any fast play- ing. 1916 pulled up splendidly. They left their defensive position and, playing more on the offensive, made three points. The ball was worked up to the other goal where Hitchcock made a good stop and a pretty pass nearly the length of the pool. F. Howell threw one more goal for 1919, which brought up the final score to 3-5. The line-up was: 1916 1919 a Sry We os tales ican K. Tyler Be ONE co cwee Oe Nickie F.

Neither side scored until almost the end of the first half, when T. Howell threw a spec- tacular goal from the middle of the pool. In the very beginning of the second half G. Flanagan made a goal after a splendid throw to her by M. Strauss, and soon after T. Howell made another goal. 1917 renewed their energy, M. Willard making their first goal. Right after this V.

Mrs. Penelope Wheeler, in recit- ing the “Hippolytus”, Saturday evening in Taylor, was under the extra disadvan- tage which handicaps all dramatic re- citers: that of providing by change of tone and bearing the variation, naturally given by any company of actors, between the different characters. Mrs. Wheeler only partially succeeded in this. Her Nurse was a littie too tragic and at times hard to distinguish from her Phedra. Hippolytus and Theseus were also not sufficiently different persons.

Guardianship” and “Reform Schools for Girls in Relation to Social Guardianship”. The Glen Mills School is composed of 500 girls, sent up from the courts, ranging in age from six to twenty-one years. They live in ten large cottages. No uni- forms are worn in the school. Except in the two receiving houses there is self- government, and the girls are given the freedom of the grounds. In spite of this freedom there are few attempts to escape and those who show themselves untrust- worthy in this respect are deprived of their privileges of self-government. The girls themselves take care of the greenhouse, the cattle, and the crops of the large farm on which the school is located, under the direction of the offi- cers, who are all college graduates, many of them from the Cornell Agricultural School. There is half-day school for most of the girls, though a great majority of them are somewhat mentally deficient.
