Vo.ume III. No. 29 BRYN MAWR, PA., MAY 30, 1917 TUTORING SCHOOL ON SCROON LAKE Will Live in Bungalows ALUMNAE SCORE CRAMMING SYSTEM Moon Hill Camp on Scroon Lake in the Adirondacks, for sixteen years a reg- ular summer camp, will be transformed this summer, for six weeks, from August 13 to September 24, into a tutoring school for Bryn Mawr under the management of A. MacMasters °17. Two big bun- galows, with small cottages nearby, com- prise the living quarters. Thirty-five students is the largest num- ber which can be accommodated, and the number and choice of teachers must depend upon the applications. Members of 1918 may come at any time for tutor- ing in French and German. Old School Travesty on Education Criticisms of the former “cramming” school system appear in the report of the Academic Committee of the alumnz published in the April Alumnz Quarterly. “The travesty on education which has resulted from such schools and from the tutors associated with them has almost undermined the work of some of the de- partments of the large universities. **But what the Academic Committee chiefly deplores is the detrimental effect on the college work of students enter- ing Bryn Mawr after this kind of prep- aration. The college records bear out our objections. Of sixteen students en- tering in September, 1915 from the tu- toring school ten failed to make their merits in February, 1916.

Miss Smith plans to have a corps of emergency workers consisting of college students who sign up at the beginning of the year as willing to miss one concert or play during the year and go that night to work at the Center. This year nobody has been there on nights of college plays. H. Allport ’'17 and H. Karns ’19 have been running an Italian night school at’ the Center since Easter. Until then it had been managed by Haverford students. | One night recently a Haverford man strolled in “to see how many of the men the girls had been able to hold”. To his confusion he was told that the girls had not only held the eight men left at ‘!:e end of the Haverford régime, but had :n- creased the number to eighteen. There have been about fifty regular! workers from the college at the Center this year. Summer Plans at the Center Playground, summer schoo). Italian night school and other activities will be kept going at the Community (enter this summer by Mr. and Mrs Philip Rice. The Baldwin School has offered the Center the use of all its tennis courts and ath letic fields for the summer, and it is possible that special preparedness classes will be organized and the Center used as a headquarters for canning clubs in the district. Mrs. Rice had charge of the Community Center last summer. Mr. Rice has had experience in managing boys recently as a Y. M. C. A. worker in the Philippines HELEN TAFT ’15 NEW DEAN Dean Schenck Prefers Scholar’s Life Helen -Taft '15, daughter of ex-President Taft, will succeed Miss Schenck as Dean of the College next year. President Thomas, in announcing it in chapel last Thursday morning, said in part: “I have to make both a sad announce- ment and one which I hope may be happy. Dean Schenck has decided to resign as Dean of the College and continue her work as Associate Professor of French. I am sure you will all regret deeply as | do this decision. Executive work is a very special sort of thing. It is impossi- ble to tell whether you like it until you try it. Dean Schenck has tried it fairly this year and although she has, as you know, been very successful, she has de- cided that she prefers the life of a scholar and professor. You cannot succeed in be- ing both a dean and a professor. It is, in my opinion, perfectly impossible to carry an important executive position and to do such work as is required of a professor in Bryn Mawr College, that is, to teach grad- uates and undergraduates, to do research work oneself and to direct the research work of others. Every one has to choose her life work for herself and so, I think, that we shall all agree that if Dean Schenck wishes to lead a scholar’s life it is wise for her to reach. this much as we regret it. It is at the same time pleasant to remember that the great | gain of our French Department. i | I am | who expect to take, French will feel, as I ido, that the French Department is much | to be congratulated. | Now for my happy announcement. The | Board of Directors has unanimously | elected as Dean of the College Miss Helen | Herron Taft, who is known to many—of4 |} you. It seems to us very desirable to |} have in the office one of our | younger alumnz, who will develop with | the college and will help the college to keep close to modern conditions of edu- Dean’s | cation. Miss Taft is only a year and a} | half younger than I was when appointed | Dean of Bryn Mawr College. She is only | two years younger than Dean Reilly was. | We do not think she is too young. Mor>- | over, her three years in the White Ho-.se | have made her more mature than dicated by her years. She is personally {known to many of the younger alumne because the classes of 1912, 1”, 14, 15, 16, and 17 were in the college with her. she entered as a freshrian in 1908, and was here two years and it was during her second year in Bryn Mawr College that her father was elected President of the United States. As her mother was not very well it was necessary for Miss Taft to Jeave the college to help her mother in entertaining at the White House. At the end of three years she returned here to continue her studies. It is very un- usual, | am sorry to say, for a student who leaves Bryn Mawr College for so long a time to come back and take up again serious study, but Miss Taft is a ; genuine student. She returned in 1913 and took her degree in 1915, magna cum —really wonderful achievement when you think that three very full years in the White House in which there could not be much opportunity for study were inter- posed in the middle of her college course Many of you will remember her as one of the leading debaters in the public dis- (Continued on page 2, column 4) ENDOWMENT FUND COMPLETED OVER NIGHT $700 Goes to Alumn Fund The $106 raised over night by 1920 has brought the Endowment Fund. up to the $10,000 mark pledged in 1915-1916, and has won the $700 offered on “its comple- tion.

In previous years the cups and prizes were awarded after Senior Singing the night of Garden Party, but the dark- ness and lateness of the hour made the ceremony so unsatisfactory that in 1912 an inventive Athletic Board hit upon the idea of combining the awarding of cups feature various championships on with the Alumngw gamé and an Alumnewe procession: thus Athletic Day was _ in- stituted. Since 1913 it has been held out-doors on the day before Commence- ment every year, except in 1915 when it and held during Breakfast.

Two new cups were awarded last year: the Alumnw-Varsity tennis-cup-presented in. 1916 by C. Wesson ‘09 and won by the Alumne, and the cup presented by Miss Applebee in honor of the class of 1916 to the class winning the all-round athletic championship. This will cer- tainly go again to 1917. At the present date 1917 leads 1920 by four points and has a good almost chance of securing a com- fortable margin from the B. M.’s still to be awarded in tennis, water-polo, and basket-ball. The swimming cup, presented by 1907, will be awarded to 1920 for winning the meet with a total of 57 points. The cup for the individual swimming champion goes to two freshmen, K. Townsend and M. S. Carey. They each broke two rec- ords and won one fourth place, K.

In water-polo but one cup, for first team championship, presented by 1910 and won this year by 1917. In hockey there are three, first team, pres- ented by 1905 and won by 1917; second team, presented by the Athletic Associa- tion and won by 1919, and third team presented by 1914 and won by 1919.

To the freshmen, whom she has introduced for the first time to the mazes of the Group System at Bryn Mawr and whom she has guided safely through the time- honored combination of First Year Eng- lish, Minor Latin and Biology, the event is as unwelcome as it is unexpected. To seniors, to alumne, and also to all out- siders interested in the college, Dean Schenck probably stands above every- thing else, for the person who put the Appointment Bureau on its feet._In one year she has made its hitherto potential value actual. With the Dean, perhaps more than with any other member of that mysterious force, the “Office”, each student is intl- mately connected. That this connection must be broken after a year which the new Dean has marked with achievement as well as promise is a misfortune only to be gauged by those who know Dean Schenck. By Divine Right Like the voice of one crying in the witd- erness we presume to raise a protest in connection with the peculiarly hereditary aspect of college elections. Formerly club presidents, choir leaders, and varsity captains were by tradition members of the senior class, but in 1916 the custom of odd class monopoly obtained a strong foothold. K. McCollin '15 was appointed choir leader and 1917 captained three varsity teams. Of course, “‘side by side we always rush ahead”, the odd class song proclaims, but it seems as if now a phrase had better be incorporated to the effect that the for- ward march is over the supine bodies of the blue classes.

We must all agree with your critic when he says that it takes a good deal of imagination to mend gossamer, To make the gossamer in the first place, takes some imagination. But why on ear.h should anybody except a Freud lament that such dream stuff doesn’t make him think? For my part, I was quite content to dream; to watch the shimmering humour of the delicate char- acterization. Characterization, though it hadn’t the sure touch of a minstrel show, was, I think, the charm of the fantasy. I liked to see how the author had com- bined the typical and the individual, the conventional and the unexpected, turning her puppet-play into a (tiny comedy of arts. I didn’t look for much action on a mantelpiece, nor expect to find it on the frail platform set up in a college quad- rangle. As to Miss O’Shea’s hands, no per- fumer’s list, not even Flaubert’s, could explain them. Might one proffer a museum catalogue—since India and West Philadelphia are so far away? Might one hazard a guess that we, less robust than they of Pater’s time, resist a pun to fall before a metaphor? How else ex- plain the sentence which ushers in that dastardly attack on poetry at Bryn Mawr. And as for the clock’s hands,— hands seem to interest your reviewer— they were almost--too well-behaved. Oh happy critic, never to have seen the hands of a clock go forward and then backward, beset by weary glances! And yet these details are far less important than the idea of the poet, who tried to stammer what nature told him, or of the fragrance, that floated incense-like from her jar to follow the teaching of the wise old God, Undoubtedly Miss O’Shea’'s theme is to some extent disagreeable. Young Irishmen in love—even Young Irishmen, when they are so much in love that they lose their sense of values—are likely to be disagreeable. But in this case the motive seems to turn not on the man’s but on the woman’s attitude; and I feel sure that Miss O’Shea did not traduce Ireland when she sacrificed the man’s ideal to the idealism of the woman. For I, too, know what happened! They are sad wags who dine in Théléme. One ean’t expect them to leave a glorious Rabelaisian mood at the edge of the campus. Strayed from remoter revels, a critic ought not to be asked to keep his eye on the object. He _ probably couldn't, just then. (Doesn't .this solu- tion agree beautifully with the Shaun i tata ewe | celebration theory?) And moods are di- verting; only, it isn’t a mirror or a monocle—it’s an opera glass—that helps | one to see a play.

Helen Taft 715 New Dean (Continued from page 1) cussions of the cut rule. As I remember it, she opened and closed the chapel de- bate that I had with the students at this time. I had the experience, not usual for public speakers, of being convinced of the soundness of her clearheaded arguments. In-my_opinion she worsted me in debate and won my heartiest admiration. When she was a student here I was strongly impressed as were many of the faculty, by her strong and vigorous personality. She is a person of very decided opinions. She is, I think, a genuine student with very high scholarly ideals in education. After graduating from Bryn Mawr she entered the graduate department of Yale University and has been studying for two years in the department of history, her group hdre having been history and eco- nomics. She has completed all her for- mal work for the degree of Ph.D. at Yale; her thesis only remaining to be written of which she has already presented two ‘important chapters for the degree of M.A. at Yale. I am sure that you will be inter- ested to hear that her father warmly ap- proves of Miss Taft’s accepting the dean- ship of Bryn Mawr College. He has sent me word that he is very happy over his daughter's election. He has sympathized ‘in every way with her in her scholarly work. She comes of a family of marked intellectual ability and has herself not only first class intellectual ability but in addition qualities of sympathy and leader- ship which will, I am sure, win your re- spect and admiration. There have been four Deans of Bryn Mawr College. I served as Dean and Pro- fessor of English for nine years from 1885 to 1894, when I became President. After an interval of fourteen years Dean Reilly was elected Dean in 1908 and served for eight years and now is a member of our Board of Directors. Miss Taft will suc- ceed Dean Eunice Morgan Schenck, Asso- ciate Professor of French, who had held the office during the present year, but prefers teaching to executive work anda has resigned to continue her teaching of French. Let us hope that Miss Taft may find she can do more for scholarship and true learning as Dean of Bryn Mawr College than in any other position; and that she may become a permanent Dean and wor- thy successor to Marion Reilly, who was Dean of the College for eight years and is now a member of our Board of Direc- tors.
