John- son Ross, Professor of Homiletics at Col- umbia University, in his Baccalaureate Ser- mon on Sunday, May 30. - “There are two great fields open to those who are going. out from college; that of science and research, and that of service to Jesus. The opportunities in this latter field are greater than ever before, for four reasons: , In’ the first place, this generation’ can study religion in a spirit of detachment, free from embarrassment or personal prejudice, quite different from previous gerierations. Two streams, Greek thought and Hebrew passion, have made our civilization what it is. The Greek legacy was conveyed objec- tively to the last generation, bit the Hebrew came only through the Church with its per- -sonal appeals and “conscience. stabs.

To start things off well, Dr. Fenwick, the Faculty captain, hit a three-bagger, which was soon followed by one of Dr. Widder’s famous long hits. Then the student team came in and managed to get two ruts, in spite of the fly which Dr. Bullock caught. « The second inning was full of excite- ment. ‘Two bases were full when Dr. Widder came to bat. His first strike sent the ball off into the bushes, giving him time to come home and then reach first | base again. He called it a run and a] third, which gave rise to a dispute as to how even a mathematician could get a third of a run out of four bases. H. Guiterman, ’28, starred for the stu- dent team catching flies and making home runs, besides doing all the pitching. E. Haines, ’27, also played well, catching one spectacular fly in the third inning. * The arguments with the umpire in- creased, and the advice from the side lines; cries of “this isn’t tennis” and “act like Hindenburg” compensated for the constant fumbling during the middle of the game. In the sixth inning an orange was introduced into the play, but when it was substituted for the. ball, the result was disastrous for the Faculty. A game | of puss-in-the-corner took place between first and second base, but in spite of the combined efforts of. Dr. Bullock and Dr. Hart, H.

(Specially contributed by. N. Perera, ’28, President of the Bryn Mawr Art Club.) Miss Park has granted the students of Bryn Mawr an art course for next year. This, however, is not as optimistic a statement as it would seem. We are con- fronted with the task not only of run- ning the class ourselves, but: also of financing it, After the exhibition of the Bryn Mawr Art Club a petition for practical art was presented to the President. Miss King was especially enthusiastic about the plan LAnd suggested that eventually a lecture course be established on the technique of art with supplementary work in the form of laboratory. Much to our surprise the project met with approval. It was too late in the year to procure an instructor for such a position, but we were given permission to prove our interest and abil- ity by conducting: an. extra-curriculum course next year under the supervision of the History of Art Department. At a meeting of the club it was decided to have a two-hour class weekly. But nothing can be done without sufficient funds to pay for instruction and mate- rials. We must depend on the friends of the college, as well as the students them- selves for help. With such a start shall we allow this chance to slip away? Our enthusiasm is at its height; where is yours? Send checks to Helen N. Tuttle, Treas- urer, County Line road, Bryn Mawr, Pa. _ THE PLAYERS PRESENT The Players will give 4 Masque, by H.

No less strange and unexplained were the costumes worn. 1904 was the most | picturesque and interesting of the groups, wearing the clothes they wore in college» Purple linen suits, flower garden hats perched over perilous cliffs of hair, lacy dresses with ascetic boned necks, trailing skirts and ample bustles, simple athletic togs consisting of long starched sleeve blouses and corgyiroy skirts of the tradi- tional varsity brown, cut daringly high to expose the toe and daringly low to ex- pose the-collar bone—all these made a vivid impression on the undergraduate mind, » Next came 1905, a large and enthusi- astic body in red caps and gowns, nicely calculated to run in the rain which fell in- termittently during the morning. To them was awarded the prize for the best costumes. 1906, their freshmen, were many strong, toa, Wearing blue-capes, white hats with blue trimmings, and carrying blue Japa- nese parasols.

VENTURES VERSUS VOLUMES To have a mind which is “complicated and yet retains the overwhelming clarity: of } the Parthenon” is more than to have a good memory; to “make language and thought one, is more than to understand” the rélation between manner and substance. But above all this, and beyond the reach of most of us, is the ability to assort and disentangle the thoughts’ of others without losing our own adventurous outlook. We have labored to reproduce the lan- guage of great men, to select pertinent quo- tations scattered throughout many volumes, and rearrange them into new combinations that we call our own. In sd.doing, we have acquired the rudiments of the technique of research and have thus learned that accur- acy is a rare quality. The facts we have so painfully acquired, however, fetter our thought, so that we feel wearily satisfied if, within twelve hours, we can transcribe a difficult theory from the text to the quiz book. In the fierce strife of competition, - many of us. have forgotten—some have never learned—that to invent is to co-ordi- nate inward impulses with outward fact. We must free ourselves from any desire to excel our fellows in scholastic achievement or wit, that we may the better explore the nameless identity which lives beneath our reticence or our expansiveness. Otherwise, if we persist in following the path we have trod so long—that straight and narrow: way which leads eventually to the Suntma Cum Laude—any stray gleam of originality may well be extinguished by the sheer masg of foreign opinion to which we are subjected. Granted that creative thought is left with- ‘out a means of expression if it lacks the ability to make careful compilations and -fine distinctions; granted that the System is indispensable to Life, But here, where the System -bids fair to crush out our frail individual existences, the least we can do is to see ourselves as -we are—analysts and imitators who want imagination, And for those who still have a deep- seated impulse towards origination,-it is not enough to wait for the uncertain moment of inspiration; they must be willing to risk perfection of detail if they would brave the unknown reaches of invention, for, being what they are, they should know that the greatest success only follows in the wake of _ greatest hazard.

The large number of failures in the Ger- man examination taken by the Junior Class a month ago seems to have led-a good many undergraduates and Alumnae to believe that the work of the Extra- Curriculum classes in German has been proved a failure. As I feel sure this is not the case, it seems wise to give the fol- towing figures: Of the fifty-four students who failed, twenty had taken no work of any kind with the German Department, two had begun work only in their Junior year and had been registered in the Soph- omore classes, fourteen registered for the Supervised Reading planned for Juniors but soon gave it up, three had Elementary German two years ago, but had taken no work under the German Department since, four took Elementary German this year; of these one failed the first semester and two entered the class the second semester, ‘This leaves eleven students who had kept up their. connection with ‘the work of the Extra-Curriculum classes for two years and nevertheless failed the examination. It is our hope and expec- ‘tation that these students will be able to pass without difficulty in the fall. Of the twenty-nine who passed, nine had Ele- mentary German, two were in more ad- vanced German courses, three obtained their knowledge privately, fifteen had the Extra-Curriculum class ‘and the Super- vised Reading. I have been told that of the fifteen last mentioned most had spe- cial tutoring before the examinat! I think it probable that such tutorin; -|no more than compensate for lapses f = partment about two-thirds of them can, with some concentrated effort before the It is certainly not too much to hope that the examination, pass at the first trial. other third by studying in the summer of their Junior year would be able to pass the second trial. German Compared. “with Frenéh. On the whole, the record of the students who | the work in the» German classes compiares not unfavorably with that of the students wha. took the French examination, of whom failed, entered on French. seventeen out of eighty-seven although gof these, fourteen had There are several general observations to be nfade with regard to preparation for the language examinations which are per- haps of more interest to future classes than to the Class of 1927. In the first place it is certainly the hope of the Bryn Mawr Faculty that the schools will ’in- crease, or rather will resume, the teaching of German to a greater number of their students. It would probably be advan- tageous if a_larger number of students entered on German instead of French for there can be very little doubt that for students well grounded in Latin it is easier to acquire a reading knowledge of French than of German. If the students who entered on French, however, could study German in the lower grades and gain some facility in speaking and reading at that time, a brief course in German either in 6r out of the curriculum ought to suffice to give most of them the re- quired reading knowledge. For the stu- dents who have not any familiarity with German before entering college it will still be necessary for them to do one of two things: Necessary Work. (1) To take Elementary German at some time during their college course counting it as a rule as part of their elec- tive work .and if they take it in their Freshman year to practice the reading of German regularly in the summer. (2) If a student does not care to devote five hours of college time to learning German she must count on doing regular work during her Sophamore and Junior years under the direction either of the German Department or of a competent tutor and she must also expect to devote a least one hour daily to German during the sum- mer. tinue to give the Extra-Curriculum course for Sophomores. Where it is possible to do so it would be advisable for students to begin German by themselves or with a tutor in the summer preceding their Sophomore year. This ought to make it possible for them to enter intelligently into the work of the Extra-Curriculum classes, and to get real profit from the class meetings. They must expect to keep up their German ‘reading through the following summer and where they have made sufficient progress they will be advised to try the examination at the beginning of their Junior year. Other Juniors ‘whose work has been satisfactory but who have yet mastered enough Ger- man to pass the examination will be al- lowed to enter the Supervised German reading classes for which no credit is given or the two-hour German Reading class which is part of the curriculum. . No one will be admitted to either of these classes whose work in the Extra-Cur- riculum German has not been satisfactory unless they have made up the deficiency t| by very | ntensive | work in the summer. ae The German Department will con- terest. For the present Junior class I think we have all of us considerable Sympathy in tha they-aré the first class on whom this new requirement was placed had no op- portunity to prepare themselves by work in school and fell naturally into some con- fusion as to what the requirement. would really mean. In the case of students wh have made ‘an honest attempt to leafif German even during the last year I hope: very much that by work this summer | they will be ewabled to meet the require:: ment next year. In the case of the stu-' dents who have made practically no effort: to study German up to ‘the present time; the only advice to be given is that they: should devote themselves to ‘that and’ nothing else'this summer. [n view of thé many warnings that they have received they have no right to expect special con- sideration if they fail to do in four months what they have been frequently. told would require two years’ work.

He also read Augustine’s Con- fessions, which, he said; “sounded like an open-air preacher,” “Religion is the first of human concerns.” Literature, science, history, ethics, and re- ligion must be studied. It is essential to know what each of these has done fof civilization. Just because there are dis- agreements of opinion in religion does not mean that it should not be. studied, any more than poetry, about which there is also controversy, should be omitted 'from the curriculum because most men read prose. Religion is one-of the things the youth of today: should know;'it is not proscribed. It 4 is normal as expressed. in books like The}, Plato, Plutarch’s Lives |* Unchanging Quest, One Increasing Purine, and The Materialist. If one can but get rid of ‘superstition and hysterfa, no other | generation ever had such a chance to study religion. In the second place, “the religion of today | is in a state of unexampled flux.”. Estab- lished authority is breaking down, and out of it all Jesus is emerging, He is. being dis- entangled from the mass of belief in doc- trine and dogma. This emancipating process is perhaps more obvious in other countries than in England or America. Books like Christ of the Indian Road show the. new interest in Jesus alone. China is doing the same thing, and it is up to Youth here to blaze the trail, from the center, making it more effective.- We must give life to the only thing which will unify our world. “The Institutions which were regarded as being as divine as God Himself have been seen through—Jesus stands alone.” The third reason for: the present oppor- tunities in the field of religion is the “strange to reorganize Christianity paradox of the contraction of the world broadening the viewpoint.” We see now that the conflict is one of, ‘ temperaments and philosophies of life, not of races. The egemy of progress has no definite name; but he puts the body beforé ‘the spirit, the dead ‘before the alive, makes things only to. sell them, worships bodily prowess in the indi- vidual, and ‘military superiority in the na- tion. He is opposed to charfge, blinds him- self to cruelty, he fears and hates. His patriotism is tribal, he cannot handle the idea of humanity as a whole. There are three useless types of person, the cynic, the sentimentalist, and the spiritu- ally ignorant politician, When it comes to ‘basic things they know nothing of psychol- ogy. There is a chance for the student of psychology in probing public opinion, study- ing the’ way in which man has misjudged man and man’s ynind.

Game Gaining an Overwhelming Victory. The Faculty carried off all the honors in tennis by defeating Varsity on Satur- day, May 22. In the ‘six matches played Varsity only won one set, which seems to prove con- clusively that there is nothing in the old theory that exams weigh equally heavily on Faculty and students. By far the most interesting match was r between E. Musselman, ’26, and Dr. Bul- lock. The playing was fairly even, al- though the score did not show this. The line-up was as follows: The best tennis was displayed by Dr. Widder, who defeated B. Pitney, "OT: Dr Widder’s powerful _ serve, sure place- ments and remarkable plays at the net made him far outshine his opponent. In contrast to the speed of this match, the one between M. Hopkinson, ’28, and Mr. E. S. King was ‘characterized by long slow rallies from the back court. In every instance the Faculty defeated Varsity. Dr. Widder vs. B. Pitney, ’27.

The match was rather unexciting and in- active, neither of the players being up to M. Hopkinson’s serves were excellent, but the slightly greater steadiness of B. Pitney proved more effectual. _CAN YOU DRIVE A CAR? We have large, new, six-cylinder cars.and Fords which you can » rent for as little as 12c a mile.

But it, is no para- dox for those who know that when the mind is given fullest play, when Wwe have a centre for the development of Jewish con- ciousness, then coincidentally we shall attain the fulfillment of our material needs.” ~ Dr. Chairm Weizmann—President of the World Zionist Organization. Many noted scholars and _ diplomats gathered it Jerusalem for the opening of the Jerusalem University, April ‘1st. Ameri- can Jews who have been the chief financial supporters of the movement to rebuild the Jewish Homeland had the largest represen- tation of any country in the world in the exercises. There were 7000 visitors in Jeru- salem for the event. Lord Arthur James Balfour, . English statesman, who at the age of 77 has made a | pilgrimage from London to Jerusalem, de- livered, the principal address at the dedica- tion exercises. UNIVERSITY SITE—A panoramic posi- -|-tion on Mount Scopus has been secured for the university; to the west lies the City of Jerusalem, to the ‘east the Dead Sea is visible and the valley of the Jordan; on the further side, the mountains. of Moab. Professor Patrick Geddes, the well-known Edinburgh architect, worked out the designs for the university. Professor Geddes drew up his designs on the unit plan so that each building, as it is erected, will be complete in itself, and at no time before the comple- tion of the scheme will there be any dis- harmony. FUNCTION—Although recognizing the importance of the university as a place where students are examined and given degrees, for a career, the founders of ‘the diversity place highest’ the advancement of science by untrammelled ‘research. “It ‘is these few in every country to ,whdém we can look for the advancement of knowledge. It is: in. these few that the ingellectual momentum of ‘the world is:concentrated.” Therefore it is proposed to begin the Hebrew University as a research university. Educational training will be offered later when more resources, both of men and money are available. There “will be three departments—a * medical department, a chemical department and an Institute of Jewish studies which will do research work in the history of the Hebrew language and religious t ae es Albert. Ein- stein, noted scientist, will be on the univer- sity faculty. LIBRARY—A Library containing about 250;000 books is already in operation. EXPANSION—“Beginning, as~ it will, with the three research institutes that have been described, the next project is along similar lines. The institute of Jewish learn- ing will grow “by the formation of other departments of Jewish learning. Other branches. of humanistic learning will be added or formed into separate institutes as the possibilities arise. On the scientific side the next step will be research institutes in psychology, physics, mathematics. the general situation allow, the other side of the university will be developed, viz: the teaching and the training of those who are to take part in the intellectual and spiritual revival which shall-emanate from Palestine.” The Hebrew University has been hoped for from the beginning of the Jewish, Na- tional movement. The fifth Zionist conven- tion in 1901 made a move in.that direction but under Turkish rule the project was not possible. When the Zionist Commission was sent to Palestine in 1918 after the capture of Jerusalem, with British authorization, the also as a place’ where students are trained foundation stone of the university was laid. dos Drink ($etola Del c1oUu anc ait freshin prom doll 5 THE COCA’COLA COMPANY, ATLANTA, GA. ti Glass of Fashion * | Fashions come and fashions go but figures prove that ~ Coca-Cola is still the most popular: ae all beverages. ‘7 HAD TO BE GOOD TO GET ere IT 18 = 7 MILLION A DAY : . ‘ a, ; « + “As soon as conditions in Palestine and SCHOOL OF HORTICULTURE ~ for Women Courses include Flower Growing, .Landscape Design, Fruit Growing, Poultry, Bees, ete.

Itisnot slwaysin the Leese This is now a pleasant and acknowledged fact. But women, more perhaps than men, demand some- thing beyond time-service for a cash return in order to respond with their best efforts. And many of them need or want part time jobs which will pay more than a pittance. | The sellingof life insurance is a whole or part time job calling for the kind of wo- men you are, the best type. One woman who has sold life insurance on both a whole and a part time basis, has raised two sons, and taken care of a hus- band suddenly i gt has written— “There is no field that of fersasgreat an opportunity for women in financial ibilities, as to her own life, and as to what, she may do for others.

Barnard Bulletin, ¥ Williams Raises Tuition. Tuition at Williams College has been raised $100 a year, to $400, it was announced last week by Willard Hoyt, secretary of the Board of Trustees, for.students of Special provision was made, however, limited means. The action was taken at the meeting of the trustees last Saturday, when it was showy that the cost of educating a student at Williams is $385 a year over and above tuition, room charges and fees. The tuition collections alone, it was said, fall below the total salaries of officers of instruction. —New York W orld. Intelligence vs. Character. Professor Carl C. Brigham of Princeton declares that while intelligence tests are use- ful they are too inaccurate to: be trusted which most laymen have Bald” for some tirne. The trouble with intelligence tests is that while they measure. mental capacity Thus, in a-test, one youth might score forty- five and another ninety, and one would be tempted to conclude that the first would make only half ‘as good a student as. the second; but if the first were twige as fond of study as the second the conclusion would be quite wrong. : Can any laboratory test be devised for character? Probably not. Character seems to be one thing that reveals itself only when the test is real. Any -dolt, asked whether dependability is a requisite in the game of life, would answer in the affirmative; but whether he could be depended 6n to manage the football team is another matter, and one on which his pat affirmative answer, given in the test, throws no light. There is one method that might help the deans. Let them put all doubtful candidates for agpjssion to mowing the college campus. At the end of a day, we venture the ‘ones that had cut the most grass would prové, taking one con- sideration with another, the best students. —Hditorial from N. Y. World. Smith Girls Like Chapel. .

Nathan denounces faculty censorship of student publications as a hindrance to spon; staneous expression and believes that it creates more mischief. than would the ab- sence of control. For every college to regularly inflict on the--public a comic magazine he finds an unjustifiable practice.
