CABINET DISCUSSES i. - PAST WORK OF COMMITTEES Theoretical and Practical Sides of C. A. Are Not Incompatible ‘At a meeting of the cabinet of the Christian Association last Tuesday, the work and aims and failures of the past year were thrashed out and disctissed. In times past,.some said, the associa- tion stood for differegt things. The spir- itual sidé was emphasized. Perhaps we are not mystically inclined. T. Fugita, 735, said ‘that CA, should find some way of giving people a fecling of quiet, of sweetness and mutual help. Other mem- bers felt that it was a beautiful idea, but that it could not be carried* out sponta- neously. M. Stewardson, ’25, Président of C. A, declared that: these arguments all come back to the question of how each person is to interpret the pledge for herself. She feels that the connectipn of social service with religious thought! is not artificial and that under-C.-A, fall the, practical intellec- tual and the spiritual side of religion.

Boross in 1927-25 Matches DAVIS-DODD MATCH IS CLOSE The tennis season opened Monday very auspiciously for 1926. Only three fixst-team matches were played off, and in +eachr case 1926 defeated 1928. W. Dodd, — A, Davis, '28, by the F. Jay, ‘26, overcame against score of 10-8, 6-2. By far the most interésting of the three was the Davis-Dodd match. Both played with sureness, speed and force, placing the ball with accuracy. Their game was mostly back-court and . both players stroked the balls frequently with great precision’ and showed very good form. The first set was a long, gruelling, hard- fought battle. At the start, F. Jay, ’26, and C. Dyer, 28, seemed to be very evenly matched, too. Their game was also back-court, but in the end the even, sure playing of F.

Her great reach, strong serve and infallible steady shots were too much for B. Pitney, who, though her strokes were pretty, seemed to lack initiative. Picking up amazingly in the second set, she threw herself into the match and. playing placing them even beyond the reach of C. Remak, ‘who did not run much for the balls. B. Pitney’s fighting energy and deteymina- tion to win, added to her swift drive and powerful serve, won her ‘the victory, Minna Lee Jones, ’27, defeated E. Boross, ‘95, in a steady, uninteresting match with the score of 6-3, 6-2. The game played consisted of long unvarying shots, landing - each time a few feet from the. back line, M.. L. Jones took the offensive from the start and drove her shots hard, but E. Boross seemed, to play more of a pushing -game. There was little placing and practically no net play. Playing a. pretty game, M. Brown, "28, defeated M. Hand, ’27, 4-6, 6-1, 6-0. In the beginning the pair seemed fairly evenly - matched, although: M. Hand, ’27, who played with very pretty form ‘throughout, was in thg lead.” In the next two sets her physi- cal strength seemed to desert her and M.

Post Office. a WARNING TO CIVILIZATION Like the sphiyx and the centaur and the griffin, hybrid forms evolved from the horrors of beast art, Felix and his fellows of the Krazy Kat Ballet represent man’s primitive tendencies in art today. Strangely we take pleasure in these half- humanized creatures who jig before” us, and in their relatives.of the cinema, Aesop * and his crew. Love, battle and sudden death, flash past on the screen to the tune of Aesop’s moralizing; and Felix’s cousins woo and fight with all the violence of the cave-man and a good ‘deal of insidious ‘modern equipment. Likewise, in music, we applaud the famous “Mammy” songs of today, perhaps degenerate descendants of the rule and ritual of: primitive matri- archal communities, like the Sarmatians on the Black Sea. Are the eager listeners of the singer bawling for Virginia and his Mammy, surviving worshippers at a festival of Demeter, or Mother Earth? But today we laugh. Though the black-faced comedian undoubtedly _re- minds many of his hearers to send white carnations on Mother’s Day, we hum his latest in the morning bath. And after seeing “Why Girls Leave Home” or melancholy episodes of Gishes, we glee- fully relax at the appearance of a Fable. Certain philosophers must be right; laughter is inactivity, leisure from the struggle for existence. Amid decadent civilization and frightful refinement we nvock the symbols of our mighty ances- tors’ joy and terror. And as the history books of childhood taught, arrogance and luxury made Rome fall! UP-TO-THE-MINUTE MEN Equal rights for men!—this seems the slogan of the Easter season. Women have usurped more and more of the pre- rogatives of men, from balloting to breeches, and the balance is in_ their favour. So it is up to the oppressed masses of men to readjust the scales. -———-Witness, then, the Easter _parade—many more men than women—and such men! Decked out in creations of London lav- endar and powder blue and father of pearl gray! We are surprised to note that}. none of them have taken to wearing red ‘as a symbol of their revolt. Doubtless “that will come in time, when they recover from their initial timidity. We look forward to such items in the society columns: “Mr. and Mrs. Bourbon Stuart arrived this morning at Hope Springs. Mr. Stuart was wearing a smart sport suit of Liberty red pongee, with a dashing felt hat to match. Mrs. Stuart wore the conventional ensemble.” * A VOCATIONAL OPENING Spring, with the: opening _ Of the “Mikado” in New York Saturday night, brings again the return of the delightful operettas of Gilbert’ and Sullivan, who by Jury” fifty years ago, , type of light opera. Its success N doners soon hummed its®* airs. Gilbert, who wrote the vivacious libretto, had been a Government servant, a. militia captain and a barrister, while, Sullivan, his part-' ner, and the composer of the sparkling tunes that caught the fancy of the world, had been a chorister at the Chapel Roya, London, and had studied at Leipsic. Operetta followed eretta. from the gifted pair in rapid successful suc- cession. “The Pirates. of Penzance,’ which our Glee Club is to produce this spring, was first given in this country at the Fifth Avenue Theatre on December 31, 1879.: With its rollicking songs and satiric take-off on the piratical melodrama of the time, it took London by storm three months later. The training, in light opera, received by the members of the Glee Club could have far-reaching _ effegts. Mr. Alexander Woolcott, in speaking of the present New 4-Y ork-production-of-the“Mikado;*~which had not then opened, regret¢ed that Gil- bert and Sullivan operettas are always done by a company, hastily gathered to- gether forthe occasion, soon to disperse. Mr. Woolcott feels strongly that a cer- tain company should be established, just to produce, and therefore probably more perfectly to produce, Gilbert and Sulli- van’s immortal operettas. Here is another opening for the Bryn Mawr girl, if any light opera stars lie hidden among the Glee Club’s still private rehearsals of the “Pirates of Penzance.” Trained nightly to sitg Gilbert and Sullivan (have our ears not rung all spring with the gay tunes of the “Pirates” that float daily from the chapel?) perhaps some one of Mr. Woolcott’s idea to fruition. Surely if not the instigator of the new company to give us always “the Office. boy,” “Pooh Bah” and the “Ruler of the Queen’s Navee,” one of. us can per- haps join the company that shall preserve the light opera tradition. and give us yearly the “haunting lyrical) music, the amusing lines of Gilbert and Sullivan. us will bring “THE BEAUTY THAT WAS GREECE” There’s something depressing enough about your ink-stained, mussed tweed coat, of faded hue and thinning elbow; or the ancient scuffed up brogue that hasn’t seen a Whittemore can for years. But for real pathos they can’t touch the cast-off finery of former years, sas to the uses of the campus. After all, tweeds and brogues are of the earth earthy, and there’s something. | natural, even distinguished, in their down hill path. . There isnt that utter abandon to misery you see in-the €hipped patent leather slipper, its heel run over and its sharp toe blunted, forced to guide wool- clad feet through icy slush. Poor slippers made for hardwood floors and White- man’s music! And who has not forced grimy desks and dreary lectures upon the laced and beaded taffeta and duveteen of two seasons back? It is so sad to see their elegance become absurdity, framed by. Taylor’s stern uncompromising style. Last and saddest of all these decayed gentlefolk is the old fur coat-pelts once the summit of nature’s good and Gunth- er’s arty how acnitied dreary strips in the wailing wind. In all our babveutae life, this habit of “wearing out good clothes” seems one cross we might avoid! Let’s leave an- tique gowns and slippers quietly in the back closets, and forget, in our woolens and leather, that symbolical sombre con- trast-gay’ memory with austere reality. REVIEW OF THE LANTERN Vol. 5, April, 1925, No.3. It is my misfortune not to have made the aequaintance of the Lantern before today, so that I can offer no helpful opinion as to the relative merits and resultant character of this April’s number, which as the editorial advises is tentative and experimental, in con- trast to the more definite and stricter lit- erary policy. pursued in the past. But this introduction has been to my exceeding good pleasure, for the last offering of the Lan- * tern, contains entertaining observations, in- teresting ideas and much good writing. ~ Out of a consideration for my own com- fort | feel that | must pronounce that the following remarks are ‘intended to have about them nothing of the authoritative nor the dogmatic, but are ‘merely the expressions ot my own tastes and reactions. This Lantern’s dajnty corpus presents, for the most part and aside from the single ar- Pticle and the book reviews, a collection of impressions, none so completely succinct as an hokku nor of quite the extent of Kath- erine Manstield’s shorter stories. In, the development ‘of their several ideas they lie, in a. general way, between the two. It is ‘no disparagement to say that they lack the intellectual and artistic finality of both, The term “impressions” I use intentionally be- cause the various contributions show an in- terest in varied little aspects_of life, absorb- ing .in themseives, not given to thorough, in-4 Ltellectual—comment-or—the-elaboration essay, btit tPeated simply as something ob- served, causing interest or delight, and. for their literary potentialities. The honors between the prose and the poetry are almost equally divided with the credit perhaps slightly in favor of the prose. Space disallows comment upon each piece and | must therefore confine myself to those which seem to me to be superior, . To remark of the prose first, Miss O’Shea in “Isla” has most cleverly suggested the character of a friend who transmutes the casual fragments of everyday life into an episode of her own life, at once very ac- tual and the unusual. The two elements of the actual and the imaginary are skillfully echoed by the setting in the narrator's own room, where a fanciful tale is being read. These form the ready background from which the peculiar genius of the character stands forth. ‘The masculine mind deems the conversation of Isla’s friends to show a markedly credulous frame of -mind, but ap- plauds the desmriptive portions and the skill with which the whole idea is carried out. “The Chaperone,” by Miss (Alice Whiting, certainly deserves particular mention among the prose pieces.*‘Its brevity only vivifies the malcontent of the three young ladies traveling abroad in the inescapable clutches of an officious and entirely self-adequate chaperone, while their peculiar misery is deftly fixed by the allusion to “David Cop- pertield” of the concluding’ sentence. In sharp contrast to this observation, more than likely from actual life, is Miss Follansbee’s “The Boy from Olympus.” Its sti¢cess is due, it seems to me, to the definiteness of the overtone which lingers after the story is done. The beatity.of Greek sculpture. ap- pears in reincarnation in the god-like fea- tures of the young boy, who is discovered as a bootblack, inspires a sculptor, is per- petuated in marble, and then mysteriously departs. The conception of the combination of the abstract beauty of Greek sculpture with a human being remains with consider- able force. The story is noteworthy for its maturity of style. There are no more able contributions in the number than “Ariel,” the biography of Shelley, by M. du Maurois, discussed: by Miss Fesler and the book reviews. In both cases, by their sympathetic treatment they stir one’s enthusiasm to want to read’ the -books; the character and merits of the books are amply brought out, and, lastly, one feels the critical judgment displayed to be sound. In my opinion, the best poem offered is Miss Petrasch’s “Hilarion.” At once on reading the opening lines— “The good folk of the village came to -me and: said, Ring the bell gently, Hilarion is dead . . . —the impression is created and further established, especially in the stanza— “I climbed up in the belfry,” s Up the creaking stair; =~ Just the bell and I and— The dead man’s soul—were there . . . —that the author’s acquaintance with -the style of Edna St. Vincent Millay is more than a casual one. Indeed Miss Millay’s style seems to permeate the whole poem. It it rather high praise to say that the quoted. verses might have come from her pen; In the spirit of quaintness and delicate ey ” Py ” an characteristic of Miss: Millay’s work ae poem succeeds admirably. In “Epithalamium” Miss Barbara ‘ha ta given excellent” expression to a passionate mood; if the phrases are a little general it is no doubt because the mood seeks music as its” most suitable “medium for utterance. There is indeed a true lyric quality felt in this poem, suitable for and reminding one of musical transcription. ,Miss Walton’s “Period Gown” should be praised for its daintiness and charm, though one suspects that the qyaintness of the picture which in- spired it is not sufficiently, brought out. In “Billy” Miss Bruere has avoided. perhaps the two chief difficulties in writing a little boy’s poem—the tendency to make it a nonsense rhyme and to miss the child’s point of view. Miss Mitchell’s “The Prehistoric Hunt” is thoroughly good fun, It recalls Lewis Car- roll’s more purely nonsensical.” The Hunt- ing of the Snark, but more particularly Ar- metre lacks his lilt and security. Whatever may have been the fruits of -\the past policy this present Lantern has cer- tainly produced. good things. There is no concern with contemporary matters of great importance, no cofitroversy, no solid essay the product of careful intellectualization, but there is, to my mind, a distinct success in what was attempted. And that, I take it, was the artistic rendering of a given theme ; the attempt to give suitable and even per- fected literary form to the idea, In the art of letters, then,*the Lantern performs ob- viously. a most important function in the life of the campus. If the contents are modest they have nonetheless the dignity of painstaking effort and good work. That is my final and most gratified impression— many of the prose pieces and the poems, and not necessarily merely those I have men- tioned, are good, they ‘possess some literary value, they partake of aft.
