TYSON INTERPRETS WRITINGS OF PROPHETS Prophet’s Milan | Substitution of Conduct. for Ritual as Test of ‘Religious Life FINDING OF GOD AN ADVENTURE “One who speaks in behalf of another”; _this is the literal translation of. the-Greek || —~ word for “prophet.” A prophet in Palestine spoke to the people in behalf ef God. The second group of the Old Testament,» the writing prophets from the eighth century ro 450 B. C., was the subject of discussion by Dr. Stewart Tyson, in the second of his lectures on the Bible given October 29. , The first Christians were told by tradi- tion that Jehovah had given them a definite canon of literature in 39 volumes. Reading it in the light of the knowledge of Christ, they interpreted-the prophets as foretelling his life and actions: S#wthey missed the real significance of the prophet’s message, which was the substitution of conduct for ritual as a test of religious life. The entire emphasis, in the eighth century B.C, was placed on conformity to a fitual code; thete was no attempt to bring into relation with religious thought their moral life. Jehovah was conceived of as a tribal god rtling only the territory of Palestine, an oriental despot who must be kept good-. humored and indulgent with offerings. All life—in Judea—belonged to God and must be given to him; hence the idea of blood sacrifice and burnt offerings. The blood of the sacrifice floated on high, the incense of the offering was sweet in his nostrils, This idea of a Merely tribal god, of religion without morality, of sacrifice instead of inner good-. ness and purity, was attacked by the suc- cession of writing prophets. They pon- dered, set up hypotheses, modified and re- jected them, and wrote the fruit: of their meditation, the conception of what God himself were speaking. “Thou hast made us for thyself, O God, thee.” The more we consider life, the more we. feel the mechanistic hypothesis does not account for . We then seek God in an emotional mood, but it requires a quiet, sustained effort to find him. The prophets made the finding of God a great adventure, brought that eminent spirit: into contact with theirs, and rearranged values in the illumination: coming from the divine. Amos, the first of the line, was a country- soul, -but one who in his quiet, earnest way it deeply.

SCHENK TELLS OF BOND BETWEEN US AND THE SORBONNE Program of Sorboune Lectures Here Includes Public and Private Courses “In the next two weeks we shall have the Sorbonne in tabloid form at Bryn Mawr,” said Miss Schenk, speaking on the Cours Publiques and Cours Fermes. which M. Charles Cestre, who holds the chair of American Civilization and Letters at the Sorbonne, will be offering here in the next. two weeks. “When America entered the war in 1917, M. Cestre was called from Bordeaux to the newly-appointed chair at Paris. At the same time Miss Ely was using the American book section of the Sorbonne Library, and she learnt that it was impossible for the Sorbonne at this time to meet the expense of equipping their new department. I went over the nert year, met M. Cestre and to- gether we planned a campaign -to secure books from.America- for this new depart- ment at the Sorbonne. At” first we planned: to canvass the Eastern colleges for con- cributions of books, but the Bryn Mawr Alumnae were so eager to return, in, some small way, the gifts which many of them had had from the Sorbonne, that finally, instead of the books, a fund was raised «0 buy the books, which yields an annual “icome of $200. There was also an initial gift of standard American ‘classics to fill in the gaps—and they were mostly gaps— This bond be- CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 GIVEN AT WYNDHAM EVENING manne Denthleee Phy Bach Cherates: Faglish and Russian folk songs and” sonatas for violin and _ piano. started the evenings ‘of. informal music at ‘Wyndham for the year.

GRAY EXPLAINS IMPORTANCE OF LOCARNO CONFERENCE, History of nce Qutlined in Three Days Chapel Speech The Locatno confereiice was discussed by] Dr. H. L. Gray, professor of History, in morning chapel last Monday, Wedieeday and Friday. : “At the beginning of 1925,” he said, “France still felt that she had no satisfactory guarantee of her‘future security, and Eng- land was inclined to reject the Protocol. Then from Germany there came «@ pro- posal: she offered, as she had just before the Ruhr occupation, to guarantee the ex- ‘stant Western frontier by signing with England and Italy, a Behind this there were | Rtineland pact. | to be arbitration treaties for the settlement. of future disputes, and the Eastern fron- tiers: were not to be changed without ref- erence to arbitration. ae “The plan received hearty support from Jand, but France hesitated to make — enemy. not ie thor- -|in the end to arbitrate. “IDR. FENWICK OUTLINES WORLD COURT MOVEMENT Professor Emphasizes Necessity of Lending it Our Support to Build its Authority TRACES ARBITRATION HISTORY vee aes 2. “There have been three distinct stages "said Dr. Fenwick, head of the department of Politi- cal speaking at Wyndham last Thursday evening at a meeting held to ed1- Science, ‘} cate the college on the World Court. “The first stage was when nations en- tered into treaties to guarantee arbitra- tion of d'sputes that had already arisen. It began with the treaty iy 1794 between Great Britain and the United States. This was a landmark in history, because, al- though feeling ran. high, and many de- manded war, the dispute was successfully arbitrated. Similar treaties were the Geneva Arbitration treaty after the Civil War, and the settlement of the Bering Sea fisher’es quarrel, which you al! reme n- ber “Then, a second’ stage, governments began to see that it is desirable to antici- pate disputes, and made general arbitra- tion treaties. The only trouble with these .reaties are that they are so worded as to admit of loopholes whenever one of the varties doesn’t want to arbitrate. For instance, the Rgot treaties of 1908 agree to arbitrate anything that does not affect ‘our honor, our independence or our vital interests.’ “This was a good beginning, and Taft tried to inmiprove ~ it. The Taft-Knox treaties of 1911, however, could not be passed until a clause was inserted saying that the only disputes that could be ar- bitrate | were those ‘justiciable in their nature by reason of being susceptible to law and equity.’ ; “Bryan saw that loophole treaties were no good at all,.and wanted unconditional agbitration treaties, binding the parties to a dispute to submit it to a committee, and although they were not compelled to “ac cept the committee report, to wait a year hbeforé going to war. “The third stage came with the idea of a really permanent court. A list of judges was posted at The Hague, and called a | Permanent Court of Arbitration, but it was no real court. There were | six judges from each nation, and you just looked down the list and chose: neh that . you knew would favor your cause, and the other. side did the same thing, and then it was always up to the umpire really to decide the thing. And only one of the judges was ever chosen more than once. “The League-of Nations then provided for a court. A committee was appointed, on which Mr: Elihu Root served, and which drew ‘up the statute of The Hague Court of International Justice. The judges were chosen by the assembly of the League, and the council, sitting separately. It was a happy expedient, but unfortunately from ‘our point of, view it involved reor- ganizing the League. And the fact must he emphasized that there is no legal necessity to arbitrate if. you belong to the court—'‘t has jurisdiction only over the cases that are loopholes for escape. “We ought to give our support to this great organization, | Entering it will give -lit the ‘moral support it needs, and lead us_ _It lacks power yets we must give it a start and help to. build up. its authority.” submitted to it.

The Polyglots, by William Gerhardi. London, Richard Cobden-Sanderson. Futility and death pervade this bitter and fantastic tragedy of manners, the futility of aimless and selfish. souls enervated by the war, drifting together into an extraordinary conglomeration of characters and nationali- ties. “The Polyglots” are an*irritating, in- effectual, grubby collection of mortals, who éach other’s neryes. They get on ours, too, one ana all, from the contemptible teller of the tale to Uncle Lucy, who finally hangs himself in his sister’s lingerie. Yet even while we writhe under the book’s aimless sordidness ,and bitter flippancies, its pene- tration, its weary tolerance, its casual skill in catching the mood of a certain post-war. group, grows on us visibly. It is difficult to develop a hearty affection for “The Poly- glots,” but we do’ ‘feel a very great interest and respect. ~ , The author’s tastes in names is peculiar, to say the least. The hero is Georges Alex- ander Hamlet Diabologh—and richly he de- serves it—his servant is Pickup, and _ his ‘}companion is Percy Beastly, he of the ver- tical nostrils. Georges Alexander Hamlet tells the story of Aunt Teresa, a selfish valitudinarian, of Uncle Emmanuel, an im- moral little rat-terrier, of. innumerable shabby, unsuccessful and philosophizing Russians, and of his own trivial liaison with the uninteresting Silvia—all in an incoherent, rambling, clever style, full of bitter,- dis- agreeable} but exceedingly”realistic humor. The only pure and agreeable character in the book is the child Natasha—who there- fore dies. AMONG NEW BOOKS| Mary Stuart, by Florence A. Macunn. There are a few stories that never. grow old, a few women whose loves are un- tarnished by _ retelling. Helen of Troy, Heloise, Hero, Seult of Ireland, Mary, Queen of Scots—every generation brings a new person to write of them and a new audience as eager as the others to hear of them. _ Among these, none isa greater. figure af romance than Mary Stuart, daughter and heiress of the gallant, lovable, ill-fated Stuarts. Miss Maccunn’s book makes her a very vivid and human figure. From her position as the hope of the Guises and the Queen in her own right of Scotland, her marriage was destined to be a decisive fac- tor in the alignment of European powers. And yet she was very much a woman, proud, high-spirited, generous and -passion- ate. The Guises looked to her to re-estab- lish them in France: their hopes were re- alized when she married the Duaphin, but dashed by his. death before she was 20. The Pope expected her to reconquer Scot- land and. England for Catholicism: John Knox fought against her in Scotland, and in England, Catholic, to the. core, she could never triumph over the power of Elizabeth. Looking on the daughter of Anne Boleyn as illegitimate, Mary considered herself the Queen of England, but France and Spain, which should have helped her, were cowed \philosophize, deceive each other and get on | by the strength of Elizabeth, Elizabeth | igig ‘ v fether with her Stuart ancestors, she was like,,them, she was faithful to het friends. Till sudden passion swept her off her feet at diplomacy. In the end Elizabeth exe- cuted her because, after years of imprison- ment and sickness, her’ charm and her power over meg made her seem dangerous to the strgngest monarch and the vainest woman of her day. Miss’ Maccunn tells the story well, bethans a bit too much Mary’s partizan—but then, we are all that, even after 300 years, (This book may be ordered through the Bryn Mawr Book Shop.) “WE ARE BOUGHT WITH.

It may be possible in solitude on a desert island, but in no place where people are congregated in numbers. Like the man who received a walking stick in his nose, and whose pro- tests were over-ruled by a. haughty. remark about personal liberty, the world replies, ‘Sir, your personal liberty ends where my nose begins.’ “We have been bought with a Price.

MUSSELMAN TALKS d OF JUNIOR MONTH ON SUNDAY Qualifications. for Social Worker Ex- ' plained at Vespers. “A turn and we are in the heart of things,” began Eleanor Musselman, ’26, in véspers, Sunday afternoon, November the first. “A brief. statement, yet it seems to sum up. very aptly the essential aspects It was then for the first time in my life that I came in contact. with, actual. pov- erty and real suffering resulting from ignorance, and that I realized the _tre- social work intelli- gently applied. Those: “realizations dawned upon me at Junior Month, which I -will explain before I- plunge into the “heart of things.” It is a plan conceived. and carried out by the Charity Organiza- -tion-Society of New York through which | twelve-juniors, representing twélve differ- ent Eastern colleges, come together to study modern social conditions, to learn the importance of the case-work method and to apply this knowledge to definite cases—or to use the jargon of the news- paper reporters “to learn how the other half lives.” Thus I found myself at the beginning of July with eleven other peo- ple all interested in the same thing afid there for the same purpose. The fact that we were. eager to learn how to con- test, to the best advantage, the existing evils in society formed a connecting link between us no matter how greatly we differed as individuals representing our various colleges. And through this uni- formity of purpose a common ground of interest was established which was a val- uable asset in that at almost any time an audience could ‘be found to hear how Salvatore had behaved at the clinic or stand a budget, even after half an hour’s excellent explaining. -The atmosphere of Junior Month was one of comparing ex- periences, of niaking and receiving criti- cisms, of progressing from definite instances which were a part of our daily lives to the problems which in general are prevalent today, a MANN & DILKS 1102 CHESTNUT STREET TOPCOATS SUITS DRESSES Having thus sketched ‘the background of Junior Month I will proteed now with uty first statement and explain.“the turn” which was a gradual one involving the vp better part of a week. The first day we went to the headquarters of the C. O. &., where we listened to Mr. Purdy, who dis- cussed the housing problem, stressing the fact that although all new tenements had to be built according to the new regula- tions, ‘providing much more light and air, mahy of the old, less sanitary, buildings remained and that although the tenement houge department can close any houses not fit for habitation, yet the courts are so lenient that the old type of tenements continues to’ pe used. Our questions | about the mor dern requirements being an- | swered, Miss Tousley gave ug a forecast ! of Juror Month activities and followed it by taking us to the top. of the Metropoli- tan Building to give usa So view of the city which we were going t renovate during the next four weeks. The Russell Sage Library was our final desti- nation that first day and here we discov- efed that books off all social’ problems’ could be found. .The next morning Miss Busby began to explain exactly’ what is meant by the case-work method—how the worker proceeds from the first inter- view in which a complete history is taken through the var:ous steps of prognosis, diagnosis. and plans...From this talk we learned that the two essential features of a good case worker are not to he satisfied by giving money, but to seek the teal evil at the base of the trouble and by remedy- ing it to effect a permanent,cure. The second characteristic is not to suggest the plans yourself, but to have:the family you are helping suggest them, so they can feel they are helping themselyes and thus retain their independence. “To continue to describe in detail this first week is im- possible. I must, however, mention the children’s court which we visited after a lecture* by Miss Ruth Taylor on Child Welfare Problems. At the Juvenile Court Mr. Fagan, who is Chief Proba- tion Officer for New York, told us of the improvements which have recently been made in the prdbation system. The most important change is that the officers study the child’s—baekgrountd-and-try in} 3 way to understand the reason for his ldélinquency. Through this method a more lasting Cure may be effected. Furth- crmore he told us about Dobbs Ferry, a model reformatory based. on self-govern- ment, and the House of Refuge, also a place for delinquent boys whieh is based on the old-time methods of suppressing the incipient criminal with an iron hand— and as we later saw (though he didn’t admit it) a deplorable place so bred upon politics that it continues to exist doing little or no good for the three hundred oc coon aps & to exhibit aad a AFTER THE GAME ™Clothes that will leave a lasting impression. cA gentle hint that we'll be back FALL AND WINTER MODES FOR EVERY DAYTIME AND EVENING OCCASION” OF THE UNDERGRADUATE - COLLEGE IN N Wednesday and Thursday 2 the latest t oo boys who are;imprisoned there.

What could a novice at social work do with such a fam- ily? At first the situation seemed very hopeless and discouraging, but gradually as I learned to consider things from the long time point of view I realized that these conditions resulting from years of ignorance could not be drastically _im- proved in a week or even'a month. “My plans to get Mr. Ceno into the Burke + Foundation Home were thwarted by his doctor whom I always felt didn’t see the problem from the point of view of the family on whom Mr. Ceno’s presence had a very depressing influence.

Vittdre, the eld- est son, I saw for only five minutes to- gether with ten*other truck-driving com- patriots and only managed to extract a promise that he would go see his family (which he actually did do later). The children, with whom the greatest and quickest improvement is always seen, I sent away for two weeks to Life Cease which are the best of this type and which were of infinite value, placing them in brighter and healthier surroundings. This illustration, of thousands of similarly dis- tressing- ones in this district, shows’ the slowness of improving existing evils.

Mr. E. Morgan Jones, a Welsh member of Parliament, addressed the students on Friday evening. On Saturday morning Mr. J. Henry Scattergood, prominent Philadel- phia Quaker, was the speaker. He was fol- lowed on Saturday night by Dr. Fenwick, head of the Department of Political Science at Bryn. Mawr College. The meeting on Sunday morning was entirely devoted to discussion, Those who went from Bryn Mawr were: J, fest 27; D. Ames, ’27; M. Chester, 27; E. Follansbee, ’26; R. Fitzgerald, ’26; as oi 28; M.

The sayings of the prophets, “I desire ‘mercy and not sacrifice,” “He that, willeth to do his will shall know of his teaching, whether it be of God,” disturbed the settled beliefs of the conservatives of Palestine, and brought upon them. persecution . and death. Then, as now, many existed like always open to conviction, but I’d like to see the man who can convince me.” But after Jeremiah, « the singer of t _| beautiful laments;—who-said of Jehovah, will write my laws, not on tablés of stone, but on the heart,” thie message of. the prophets became stereotyped, and little by little their influence went down. It could be said, “The day is not far distant, when if any man calls himself a prophet, his own father shall run him through with a sword.” Their vocation became so dishonored’ that Malachi, dying in 450 B. C., had no succes- sor. This was a very great loss, for with the passing of the prophets, the religion of the spirit went into eclipse, and the masses, for whom it is so hard to think independent- ly, lost their leaders, Scholars brought from Babylon to Jerusalem the.first five books of the Bible, which were now considered to contain all God’s revelation. Yet in spite of the deadening, hand of authority, original thinkers camé to prepare the way for Christ. Their work is to be the subject of Dr. Tyson’s next discussion on Novem- ber 5.

To this Germany demurred, but agreed that a conference. of jurists should be called to examine the situation fron, a practical: point of view. The jur- ists, when they met, prepared the way for good feeling, and this was furthered at | Locatno by ruling out the question of the responsibility for the war. Finally, the representatives of the vatious governments at Locarno decided that if Germany en- tered the League, they would recommend that special concessions should be made her in view of her disarmed condition.
