SATURDAY AFTER MID-YEARS
Postposied from Last Week .
The performance of Bernard Shaw's
“Candida”, which was to have been given
in the gymnasium January 19th, is now
scheduled for February 9th, the Saturday
" “Candida” will be played by the Clifford

‘Devereux Company of New York, the pro-{"

ceeds to go through the college to war re-
lief. The performance was postponed on
account of the congestion of freight,
which made it impossible for the com-
pany to get their properties transported.

 

BALDWIN SCHOOL OFFERED TO.
HOUSE WORKERS ON ~
B. M. FARM

School Alumnz Will Be Allowed to
Work under College Management

The Baldwin School has offered its
building to the college to house the work-
ers next summer on the Bryn Mawr pa-
triotic farm. Five acres of garden land
directly back of the school, the kitchens,
cold storage rooms, and whole equipment
for canning will be at the college’s dis-
posal.

The—only condition of the offer, stipu-
lated by Miss Johnson, headmistress of
the school, was that Baldwin alumnz or
teachers wishing to work on the farm be
taken on the same terms as members of
the college. In this way, by allowing its
land and plant to be used under the col-
lege’s highly organized management, the
school hopes to accomplish more than if
it undertook to launch an independent
farm project.

The Food Production Committee will
accept the offer provided land for the
farm; which they are now investigating,
can be secured in or near Bryn Mawr.
The use of the school, the committee
feels, will mean efficiency in the work as
well as cool, comfortable quarters for the
workers.

MARINE BASE HOSPITAL NO. 3
VISITED BRYN MAWR SUNDAY

 

Philadelphia Rude, Say California Nurses
The nurses of Marine Base Hospital
No. 3, in dark blue service uniforms, with
brass insignia, who are in Philadelphia
awaiting sailing orders, visited college
last Sunday. The unit is one of five gov-
ernment base hospitals, some of which
are now in active service at the front.

The unit is composed of Californians,
and comes from Lane Hospital, the med-
ical department of Leland Stanford Uni-
versity. Miss Hogue, who spoke at Miss
Kingsbury’s tea for them on Sunday, was
head nurse at Lane Hospital.

“I had always supposed Philadelphia
to be a polite city”, said one of the nurses,
“until a clerk in a store looked at my uni-
form and said, ‘Say, what store do you
work in? I never saw that uniform
before’.”

ROSEMARY HALL MOVES TO
FLORIDA BECAUSE OF THE
COAL SHORTAGE

 

Rosemary Hall is moving to Miami,
Florida, to-day, to stay until April on ac-
count of an order issued by the Fuel Com-
mission of Greenwich closing all the
schools indefinitely.

The whole school is going except the
primary grades, and will live in two
apartment houses in sight of the ocean.

 

PERFORMANCE OF “CANDIDA” TO BE |¢

In order to save coal the college, inde- |

pendently of any directions from the
Government, has adopted the following
measures:

“The gymnasium and the pool will re-
main closed during mid-years; on Satur-
days and Sundays Dalton will be only
partially heated; all college thermostats
will be set at 65, so that this will be the
maximum temperature attainable.

The problem of cutting down light in
order to save fuel has been reconsidered
and the Business Management has <de-
cided that even if the economy -effected
should have to be only slight, it is right
to use as little light as possible. An ex-
periment will be made to see whether a
possible saving of coal cannot be accom-
plished in spite of the college lighting
system under which the steam from the
boilers used in heating is utilized as

power to run the engines for the electric

light dynamos.

The relation between the heating and
lighting systems is fully explained in a
letter from President Thomas on page
two of this issue.

The halls of residence will be lighted
just enough to walk through, and the
drawing rooms left dark except when stu-
dents are using them to entertain guests.
Light rules in the case of students leav-
ing their rooms will be rigidly enforced.

Very little if any reduction can be
made in the lights on the grounds.

NEW PLAN OF RAISING MONEY TO
BE BROUGHT BEFORE ALUMNA

 

Greater Publicity Advocated

The next Endowment Fund campaign
may be conducted like a commercial drive
with extensive advertising, according to a
plan to be brought before the Alumnze
Association by the Finance Committee at
the meeting next week.

The class collectors met with the Fi-
nance Committee, of which Miss Marthe
Thomas is chairman, last Saturday at the
College Club, to hear Endowment Fund
reports and to discuss future plans.

Mrs. A. H. Brooks (C. Harrington '06)
described the recent tremendous success
in raising money of the Yale Alumni As-
sociation of which her husband is presi-
dent, was due mainly to increased pub-
licity. A plan somewhat similar to
Yale's will be presented for the considera-
tion of the Alumne next Saturday.

That contributions to the next Endow-
ment Fund take the form of Liberty
Bonds or Thrift Bonds was approved by
the Finance Committee, and will be sug-
gested at the coming Alumnz meeting.

SERVICE CORPS COMMITTEES
ELECTED BY EACH CLASS

Service Corps committees have been
elected by each class to superintend the
class contributions to the Service Corps
Fund. $6000 is expected from the under-
graduates and is divided among the
classes in proportion to their membership,
the Seniors having the lowest sum to
raise and the Freshmen the largest.

The committees, with the sums as-
signed, are: 1918, L. Hodges, M. Timpson,
M. Strauss, $1020; 1919, H. Johnson, and
one representative to be elected from
each hall, $1500; 1920, M. M. Carey, M.
Littel, H. Wortman, D. Griggs, A. Harri-
son, $1410; 1921, M. Foote, W. Worcester,
E. Jay, $2085.

 

 

GERMAN weneLne NoT GRAVE
ENOUGH TO CLOSE COLLEGE

 

Six Cases in Infirmary

 

Rumors that it might be necessary
to close the college on account of the
increasing number of cases of Ger-
man measles have been officially de-
nied by Dean Taft. There are six
cases at present in the Infirmary, but
even should the number rise as high
as ten, there is nothing in the State
laws to constitute German measles
an epidemic, Dean Taft explained.

The period of quarantine in Penn-
sylvania is sixteen days.

CHILD ACTRESSES SCORE SUC-

War Theme ingly Presented
ia Franch Play for War Reef

“Fréres d’Armes”, a French war play
written by Mlle. Marie Antoinette Delpit
and coached by her sister, Mlle. Cecile
Delpit, formerly teacher of French at
Miss Baldwin’s school, was given in the
gymnasium last Saturday night for the
benefit of a Franco-American hospital and
the Bryn Mawr Service Corps. The cast,
composed entirely of girls, was drawn‘
mainly from schools in Bryn Mawr.
About $50 was cleared.

The charm of the child actresses and
the achievement of a reaily dramatic cli-
max raised the performance above the
level of the average amateur French play.
The acting was unusually finished for a
cast composed chiefly of children, Miss

“WS: Cary Individual Champion

The Sophomores, winn winning first and sec-
ond individual championships, and break-
ing three of their own records, easily
took first place in the final swimming
meet last Friday night with 58% points.
1921 came second with 28 points and 1919
third with 20%. 1918 did not enter.
Forty-seven points toward the all-around
athletic championship were piled up to
1920's credit.

Repeating their performance of last
year M. S. Cary '20 and K. Townsend '20
were the brightest individual stars, with .
23 and 22 points respectively. A. Thorn-
dike 19, breaking the record for the
plunge, with a distance of 55 ft. 7 in.
came third with 10 points.

'1921 broke the class relay record, es-
tablished last year by 1917, changing the
time from 70 2-5 sec. to 70 sec. K. Town-
send '20 broke her own records in the
68 ft. and 136 ft. front swims, doing the
shorter distance in the phenomenal time
of 13 3-5 sec. as against her 14 3-5 sec.
of last year. M. S. Cary changed her
record of 41 2-5 sec in the 136 ft. baek
swim to 41 sec.

Are in the French play of that name
given by the Model School.

The plot, though somewhat shaky, bor-/
rows interest from the scene, which is}
laid in a French village, Remicourt, at the
beginning of the war. Act I shows the

village in June, 1914; Act II, after war has
been declared; and Act III as. the)
actual center of a battle. The central
figure of the story is Paul, a patriotic |

French boy, who saves an entire army |
corps from destruction by carrying a mes-
sage to its general. When his village
falls into the hands of the Germans he
boasts of what he has done and as a pun-
ishment is ordered by the German com-
mander to kill a wounded French soldier
whom he had befriended. In desperation
Paul raises his gun at the Frenchman, |
but swings suddenly about and shoots, in- |
stead, the Prussian officer. This incident,
which is the climax of the play, actually |
occurred in France at the beginning of
the war.

Gladys Leuba is Brother-in-Arms
Miss Dolan gave a very convincing in-
terpretation of the French boy Paul and
was well supported by Miss Leuba as Joe,
the sturdy young American, Paul’s sworn
“brother-in-arms”. Perhaps the greatest
hold upon the audience was secured by
little Miss Caroline Norton as the appeal-
ingly childish Francois, younger brother
of Paul.

Although not technically under the fuel
order the John C. Winston Co., which
does the college printing such as the
Calendar, Finding List, Examinations and
so on, and which prints the Tip and the
News, observed the five-day rule for pa-
triotic reasons and will close its presses
Mondays. It is said that the Bryn Mawr
examination papers came off the press

IN MEMORIAM

_ Alas, another time-honored institution
is passing away, as it becomes evident
that one can no longer drink muggle and
be patriotic. No more will the muggle
fiend bend feverishly over the fatal cup.
No more will the harassed undergraduate,
from the Senior bowed with the affairs of
the college to the Freshman with a theme
to write, find inspiration in its brown
depths. Were one a sonneteer. one might
-immortalize. it in verse:

Shall I compare thee to a cup of tea?
Thou art more tasty and more nourishing.
The future looks black, indeed; and the

years ahead seem to stretch out in an

endless void, bereft of the one original
“cup that cheers but not inebriates”.

 

THE IDIOT GIRL
(With Apologies)
I dwell among such trodden ways,
In the library drear—
A maid for whom there’s little joy
At this grim time of year.

Surrounded by my English books,
Half hidden from the eye,
* | mournfully scan the reading list
And wish in vain to die.

When suddenly I have a thought:
To-day we have hall tea!

’'Tis Hooverized war-food, but, oh,
The difference to me!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The editors do not hold themselves respon-
sible for opinions expressed in this column.

Aims of the Service Corps
To the Editor of the College News:

For the benefit of those who do not
already know about the Service Corps, we
are grateful to the News for this oppor-
tunity to print again in its columns a
. brief explanation of the main war work
of the college for the year. The Service
Corps was the unanimous choice of a
mass meeting of the college community
because it combined, as no other object
did, the contribution of personal service
and of money. Moreover, though it offers
a wide field of service, it is still central-
ized enouzh to identify its workers with
Bryn Mawr College.

The aim of the Service Corps campaign
is a fund with which to support the work-
ers of the Corps. These will be individ-
uals chosen because of their previous
training and experience. They will be
placed at the disposal of relief organiza-
tions such as the Red Cross, the ¥. M.
C. A., the Friends’ Reconstruction, etc., to
be sent where most needed, and their ex-
penses will be paid out of the Fund.
Alumne already working abroad who are
in need of funds or financial support may
also draw on the Service Corps.

One of the obvious merits of this |
scheme is that it does not necessitate |
waiting until the entire sum is completed.
As soon as there is enough in the Fund
to support one worker she can enter the |
field.

The goal fixed for the college for this
academic year is $10,000. $4000 is to be
raised from the college as a whole and
~ $6000 from the classes, which means that
each individual is responsible for about
$15 apiece.

 

 

 

-| printed from one of my Chapel addresses

Chairman of the War C cil.
Lighting System —
a, ues January 21, 1918.
To the Editor of the College News:

The College News of January 10th

President Explains

some remarks that I made in regard to
the economical system of lighting our
college buildings and grounds. As we
have this week requested the students to
co-operate with us in cutting down our
lights, I shall be glad if the editors of the
College News will allow me to explain
our lighting system a little more fully
and incidentally to correct an abbrevi-
ated form of expression quoted from my
Chapel address.

As I said in Chapel, a certain number of
boilers in the college power house must
be kept under fire in cold weather, and it
is some of the steam generated by these
boilers that is used to run the engines
which make direct connection to our dy-
namos which furnish our electric light and
power. The exhaust from these engines
passes directly into the steam mains
which carry the steam to our buildings
for heating purposes. If this steam were
not passed through the engines it would
have to be reduced by a reducing pres-
sure regulating valve, causing consider-
able loss of heat. The engineering ques-
tion involved seems to be whether the
loss of heat in passing steam through the
engines, thus utilizing it for lighting pur-
poses, is materially greater than the loss
of heat would be were this same steam
reduced by means of a reducing pressure
regulating valve only. The Bryn Mawr
College plant is so constructed that both
the exhaust from our engines and the re-
ducing pressure regulating valve have to
be used at the same time in order to get
a sufficient amount of steam at the low
pressure we use to heat our buildings.

Our heating plant was constructed in
1902 by A. D. Houghton, a very accom-
plished contracting engineer. In 1904, Mr.
Houghton, together with our present Su-!
perintendent of Mechanical Equipment, |
Mr. John J. Foley, and Mr. William J. |
Gobel, of the firm of Frank M. Gobel, of |
New York, made a series of careful tests |
in regard to the efficiency of the different |
parts of our heating plant, including our |
lighting, copies of which were sent to all |
the members of our Directors’ Committee |
on Buildings and Grounds and to me.
Mr. Houghton’s figures were checked by |
two other engineers. On the first page |
of these tests Mr. Houghton states:

“The cost of electric lights when ex-
haust steam is used for heating is not but
a little more than the cost of heating
would have been had the plant not beem
run in connection with the electric light-
ing but used for heating simply (black
type is mine), The bases of these figures
are that your plant would have to be run |
for heating in any case and what the)
lights cost above that. From this table |
you will see that for five months, com- |
mencing with November Ist and ending |
with April ist, that the coal used for |
electric lighting above what it would have |
cost for heating only was but $412.50; |
while during the month of May, when |
heat is not needed, the cost to make
lights is $577.50.

On page 4 you will see the saving in
dollars and cents in each 24 hours se
cured in using the various economizers.
This being derived at by experiment, as
well as figuration, makes it reliable.

At the bottom of this page you will see
that had we not furnished any electric
light during this time we could have
heated the buildings for $2.47 less, or, in
other words, we furnished you with 1800
K.W. hours of electric current for lights

 

They t the cost of
the coal for el ting, above
| what it would have cost for heating alone,
for the five months from November 1,

mont

1903, to’ April 1, 1904 (without Rockefeller

‘Hall and the Library, which were not
then occupied), was only $412.50; where-
as for the single month of May (with its
long hours of daylight when heat was not
needed) lighting the college, as it was
then, cost $577.57.

What I said in Chapel was based on
many statements to that effect made me
by Mr. Houghton, from various tests of
our plant and of similar plants that he
had installed elsewhere, and also on the
opinion of Mr. Foley, who worked with
Mr. Houghton in the construction of the
plant and has operated it since 1909. Mr.
Foley is of the opinion that in cold
weather, when so much steam is needed
to -heat our buildings and so much elec-
tricity to run our heat fans (always a
very heavy part of our load) and our
necessary lights, that it will not reduce
the number of boilers under fire in the
power house, or the amount of coal
burned in each boiler, to cut off the com-
paratively few lights that we can cut off.

Since January 10th, however, the
country has had to face a tremendous
shortage of coal and drastic government
regulations and, consequently, people who
see all our lights burning will be apt to
misunderstand Bryn Mawr’s loyalty and
patriotism. Moreover, some people, in-
cluding the head of our Department of
Physics, believe that we can save coal by
reducing our lights. Of course, even if
by cutting down our lights we can effect
a very slight reduction in the amount of
coal used in the power house, it is clearly
our duty to save all that we can for our
Allies. It is also, of course, Bryn Mawr’s
patriotic duty to set a good example. Ac-
cordingly, the Business Office, in consulta-
tion with Mr. Foley, Professor Huff, the
wardens, and the President of the Col-
lege, has decided on the light regula-
tions announced in the College News this
morning. Mr. Foley will keep as careful
records as possible in the power house in
order to try to determine just what saving
is effected by our efforts, and as soon as
definite results are obtained they will be
published in the College News.

OPPORTUNITY TO PLAN COURSE
WITH VIEW TO VOCATION

Dungy Sine ae ization at
Expense of Culture,
Warns Dean

For the benefit of students wishing ad-
vice in planning their vocations, Miss
Butcher, of the Bureau of Occupations in
Philadelphia, will hold a series of con-
sultations here after mid-years, under the
college Appointment Bureau, Dean Taft
announced last week in Chapel.

Similar consultations last year were
given by Miss Helen Jackson, of the Bos-
ton Bureau, who is now acting as. voca-
tional adviser to the students of Welles-
ley, in order to plan their courses, when
possible, from the time they enter college.

“Although it is right that a girl should
be advised to plan her course with a view
to what she is going to do afterwards, if
she knows, it is not always possible nor
desirable that she should make up her
mind in her Freshman year”, was Dean
Taft's comment on this plan. It is rather
necessary in college to keep an open mind
—to take up some subjects for the very
‘reason that one knows nothing about
‘them, she pointed out. In America we
i have suffered somewhat from the lack of
a leisure class to uphold general educa-

the government need not’ domet olen
ous training as the determination really
to do the thing in a professional way. —

POLITICAL MANCEUVRE. ‘AND Love |
AFFAIR ENACTED IN “HAMILTON”

George Arliss Opens Here This Week

of “Hamilton”, ‘the play dealing with the
life of Alexander Hamilton, in which
George Arliss appears this week at the
Broad, has been described in an article

| published in the New York Times when

the piece opened:

“The adroit political mancuvre by
which he (Hamilton) granted to the
South the site of our national capital in
exchange for the two votes requisite to
pass a vital Treasury bill”, forms the
skeleton of the plot. With this is inter-
woven the scandalous “Reynolds affair”,
in reality separated by some seven years:
“The character of Hamilton as a man is

revealed in the dramatic exposure of his-

relations with the adventuress, Mrs. Rey-
nolds, in which he rose to the pinnacle of
patriotism, sacrificing his personal pride

George Arliss made his first appearance
on the stage at the Blephant and Castle
Theatre, London, in 1887. His first
American tour was with Mrs. Patrick
Campbell’s company in 1901 and he later
played with Blanche Bates in “The Dar-

Sunday Service on Main Line Prevails
Saturday and Monday |

The Pennsylvania Railroad, in accord-
ance with Fuel Administrator Garfield’s
order, has materially reduced its subur-
ban train service.

The Main Line schedule on Saturdays
and Mondays is the same as that on
Sundays, with some additions, as far west
as Fraser. Beyond that point no change
has been made.

Besides the regular “Sunday” trains ad-
ditional trains on Saturdays and Mondays
are: :

ALAN DALE’sS” PLAY RECEIVED
_ WITHOUT GREAT ENTHUSIASM

“The Madonna of the Future”, the first |.

Alan Dale, which opened here last week,
was not greeted by Philadelphia as a
great success. More enthusiasm is
prophesied from a New York audience.
“The story”, says the Public Ledger,
“could all be told in a single act, and as
a matter of fact, it is, and is then re-
peated in the second and third. There is
precious little plot development, and, save
in a few instances, one felt that a more
appropriate choice of players could have
been made”.
BERNHARDT HERE IN WAR PLAYLET
To secure large audiences without the
usual high prices and to serve as a link
between the women of France and Amer-
ica, Mme. Bernhardt, now ‘past seventy-
three, is playing twice daily on the vaude-
ville circuit. She appears in the part of
a French soldier.

oak alone. in. Van heourhous, the
siege, in his graphic sermon ™ Chapel,
Sunday night.
' Describing the treatment of the Arme-
nians in the Turkish army, he said:

“Their rifles were taken away and they
weré forced to act as slaves to the Turk-
ish soldiers, and do nothing but the very
hardest labor. When they had served
their purpose they were separated into
groups of a few hundred and shot down
on the pretence that they had planned a
revolt.

“Orders were issued to the colonels of
certain Turkish regiments to annihilate
the Armenian villages in their district.
I was present in the office of the Gov-
ernor-General when he delivered one such
order. The next day fifty-five thousand
Armenians were massacred. The intel-
lectuals, whose influence the Turks
feared, were literally dumped into the
Black Sea.

“Of the two million Armenians in Tur-
key at the beginning of 1915, there are
now not more than half a million left.
About a quarter of a million more escaped
into the Allied lines”.

Soon after the slaughter had begun
the Turks attacked Van. Dr. Ussher
showed the first message, sent out from
the American mission, to call relief to
the city. It was written on a slip of thin
paper, rolled up in a tiny quill and fas-
tened into a messenger’s hair. The first
attempt was unsuccessful, so twelve
copies were typewritten on scraps of
cambric and given to as many men. Of
these twelve messengers six were killed
and only one succeeded in reaching
Russia.

The Russian Armenians immediately
brought an army to the aid of the city,
which they defended for two and a half
months until obliged to retreat because of
lack of ammunition. It was afterwards
learned that the Russian minister of war,
a pro-German, had purposely ordered the
shells.made too small for the cannon.

Dr. Ussher stressed the fact*that the
Armenians, in spite of the most tempting
offers on the part of the Turks, had stead-
ily refused to give up their religion and
“accept Islam”. He declared that the
massacres were executed under the eye
of German court-martial officers.

~

 

On account of the concentration of
effort on raising money for the Bryn
Mawr Service Corps, the drive for Arme-
nian relief has been given up. D. Cham-
bers ’19, however, has offered to forward
to Dr. Ussher any personal contributions
for the Armenians.

INSURANCE CO. DOES BIG BUSINESS

 

216 Campus Policy Holders

Insurance against any or all ills, from
measles to mid-years, is the business of
Sloane and Steele, a 1920 firm. For the
nominal fee of $.25, a policy insuring
against an impending matriculation fail-
ure, a sudden slump at mid-years, or a
miscalculated private reading translation,
may be taken out at the firm’s offices in
Radnor or Merion.

Already 216 such policies have been se-
cured, from which the company will de-
rive $18 clear profit for the benefit of the
Service Corps.. The rest of the money
will be divided up among such policy
holders as suffer failures or measles.

The firm will continue business
throughout the year.

“WILFRED THE LUTE PLAYER”
TO GIVE CONCERT IN TAYLOR

 

Artist Noted for Dramatic Power in
Interpreting Old Folk Songs

An artist who has been ealled a re-
incarnation of the medizeval troubadour,
Thomas Wilfred, lute player and folk
singer, will give a concert in Taylor, Feb-
ruary 15th, under the auspices of ‘the
Music Committee.

Mr. Wilfred, “Wilfred the Lute Player”.
as he is called, will sing a number of Eng-
lish and foreign folk songs to the accom-
paniment of a lute over two hundred
years old. His art is said to consist in
an unusual power of impersonation as
well as in his rich baritone voice and
skillful mastery of a rare instrument.

Like his troubadour prototypes, he has
played and sung at many of the courts of
Europe, among them, Denmark, England
and Sweden. He is not only a musician
but poet, composer, story-writer, and
soldier.

Tickets for the concert in Taylor on
the 15th can be obtained from Ruth Hart,
chairman of the Music Committee, at 50
and 75 cents for members of the college
and one dollar for outsiders.

NEWS IN BRIEF

Thalia H. Smith °17, last year’s Euro-
pean Fellow, was married on October 22d
in New York to Harold Dole, First Lieu-
tenant in the Aviation Corps. Mrs. Dole,
who is President Thomas’s private secre-
tary, announced her marriage last Sat-
urday. Her husband is now in France.

A medical laboratory fitted with equip-
ment to take cultures and test blood, has
been completed at the Infirmary. The
much needed addition was made possible
by a recent anonymous gift.

No 1918 class book will be published
this year, according to a unanimous vote
at the Senior Class meeting last Monday.
The custom of exchanging individual
Senior photographs was voted down at
the same meeting.

T. Haynes ‘19 and S. Taylor '19 have
been chosen, on the recommendation of
the Self-Government Executive Board, to
live in Llysyfran the second semester.

The Seniors will give a reception to the
graduates, March Ist, in the gymnasium.
The committee is the same as that for
the reception to the Freshmen: L. Hodges
"18, chairman; J. Hemenway ‘18, H. Huff
‘18, M. O’Connor ‘18, and M. Rupert 18.

To help in saving the food which, ac-
cording to a list obtained by the Con-
servation Committee from Mitchell and
Fletcher, is needed abroad, the Juniors
and Sophomores are having cards printed
pledging the signer not to eat any of the
food mentioned on the list.

Open Silver Bay meetings after Chapel
Sunday evenings will take the place of
the 9.30 Wednesday meetings next se-
mester. Dr. Fosdick’s “Meaning of
Prayer” will be followed and can be ob
tained through the Book Shop.

ing of the gymnasium, will have office
hours during mid-years in the Christian

) Association room in the Library.
