Material things have assumed The call everywhere is for men and women who can make things; the empha- sis in schools and colleges is on those subjects called practical or vocational. The tendency to discount liberal studies has received a new impetus. The danger is that after the war this will continue. “It is a significant fact that intelligent men and women are awake to this’ Lord Bryce recently led a deputation from the English Classical Association io the classics, which he held “essential to the higher educational and moral life of the nation”, should not become the exclusive privilege of the rich.

AVERAGE AT WORKROOM FLAGS Red Cross Caps and Aprons Arrive Only 898 dressings were folded at the Red Cross workroom last week, and the workers averaged exactly a baker’s dozen, in contrast to the totals of over a thou- sand dressings and twice as many work- ers in the previous weeks. Seven work- ers made 100 dressings last Friday, Lan- tern Night. Twenty Red Cross caps and aprons; or- dered the first of October, have come, and are being sold at $1.50 an outfit. Caps and aprons, some belonging to the work- room and some to individuals, are now kept at the room for workers every night. Red Cross Post Open—Volunteers Wanted The Bryn Mawr Red Cross has asked the College Red Cross to provide someone to sell wool at its headquarters gn Lan- caster Pike, from 2.30 to 5 Thursday and Friday afternoons during the winter.

Red Cross Fuses with Belgian Relief | This fall, after the Government loan to | Belgium, this committee joined with the | “Red Cross” in a double “War Relief | Committee” of the Christian Association, | which established for the first time con- nection with the American Red Cross. Under it the workroom was transplanted | to Merion and kept openevery night, The | work has been much more rigidly in- | spected than formerly, wool has been dis- | tributed, and the making of trench can- | dies and leather waistqoats started, and 100 comfort kits have been packed and | sent to France. As the functions of this committee be- | came more general and more numerous, and the war work seemed to necessitate | more than workroom activities, plans for establishing a war council on a wider | basis were formulated and two weeks ago at a student mass meeting the present | war council, which includes Faculty, Staff, and Alumna, came into existence. detente sete ee Two ‘Brya Mawr alumne, c. Kellen 16 and F. Kellogg '16, and one former stu- dent, A. Richards ex-'18, sail for France next Wednesday on the “Chicago”, under a Red Cross Surgical Dressings Unit. Standard Red Cross dressings are made on this side, but the members of the Unit will make special dressings for rush orders. “We promise to work anywhere in France or Belgium”, said Miss Richards in the course of an interview, “but we shall probably stay in Paris”. Miss Rich- ards has signed up with the Unit for six months and at the end of her time may work in an aviation hospital. The “Chicago” is the French liner which has carried so many American Ambulance men. The Princeton Unit crossed on it last April. LANTERN CEREMONY SHORTENED Red Lanterns Effective in Dusk The Lantern Night ceremony was shortened this year, in accordance with a vote of the Senior Class, by abolishing the Freshman procession through the halls and by cutting down the singing under the Arch. Class songs for ten years back were simply asked for and the absent class cheered, instead of each song being sung by the Seniors as has been done before. Originally on Lantern Night class songs were sung from the first class down. The ceremony in the Cloister was un- changed. Led by M. Foot, Freshman President, and L. Reinhardt, song-mis- tress, 1921 acquitted itself well in the singing of “Over the Way to the Sacred Shrine”. The red lanterns carried by the Sophomores in long procession were most effective and the Sophomore singing of “Pallas Athene” excellent, but for a slight difficulty at first in keeping to- gether. 1920 was led by L. Kellogg, song- mistress, and by BE. Wight. The scaffolding on the cloister roof was reduced this year to a mere platform wide enough for two rows of people to stand on, in accordance with a vote of the Undergraduate Association to cut down expenses, “JANE” SMITH SPEAKS AT DENNISON HOUSE ON B.
