Princeton University, will come to Bryn Mawr for a series of three im- portant lectures on Chinese painting, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, No- vember 17, 18 and 19. The lectures will be given in the Deanery at 5 o’clock in the afternoon of each day: The first and second will be illustrated by lantern slides and the third with original Chinese paintings which Mr. Rowley has obtained for the series from the DuBois Morris collection. This important lecture series is being sponsored by the Chinese Scholarship Committee, the Undergraduate Asso- ciation and the Entertainment Com- mittee of the Deanery. Mr. Rowley is one of the most emi- ment connoisseurs of Chinese painting in America. He has done much by his work at Princeton and by outside. lec- tures to increase and stimulate inter- est in the subject in America and to make the ideals of the art understand- able to Western students: He is known as one of the most stimulating lecturers at Princeton, and among his eminent pupils are the Directors of! the Worcester Museum and of the Far East Department of the Brooklyn Mu- seum. At one time he taught the course in Art of the Far East here at Bryn Mawr. Last autumn Mr. Rowley gave. an intensely interesting lecture on Chi- nese painting in Goodhart, in which he emphasized the importance of ‘the Eastern view of nature and philosophy in the painting. The Chinese artist sought to express not the likeness but the essence of the object contemplat- ed, and to do this an exquisite linear technique was developed. Brush strokes of the greatest delicacy and subtlest shading are the essential ele- ments of this technique. The harmonies of the Tao, or the universe, were to the Continued on Page Four The speakers were introduced by President Adylotte, who spoke briefly, and then turned the meeting over to the: first of the guest speakers, Cyril Riley, a senior at Lincoln University. Mr. Riley urged students to gain a real appreciation of the. importance of peace and to work hard to make war an impossible thing in the future. The next speaker was Doreen Canaday, a member of the class of- 1936 here, who emphasized the neces- sity for understanding the causes of war before striving to secure peace. She stressed the lack of. proportion between the overpopulation of the Eu- ropean countries and the distribution of wealth, which is one of the main causes of war. Another great factor which, encourages war is the human urge to fight. This difficulty can be surmounted by making peace a con- cern worth fighting for. Miss Cana- day ended her talk by taking an active stand in favor‘ of the entry of the United States into the League of Nations. The United States, by fail- ing to join this body at the time of its organization and its subsequent refusal to participate in many of its most important activities, must take a large share of the responsibility for the present ineptitude and collapse of the -League. Robert Wolf, of Haverford College, closed the cererhonies. He began by remarking that it must be an Armis- tice Day indeed if it were possible for a Haverford student to address a Swarthmore audience in such a peace- ful fashion. This remark completely won the attention of his hearers. Mr. Wolf pointed out that the number of students who are peace advocates is constantly growing. The force of their conviction is even greater than that of past peace advocates because they argue for peace without any pre- vious experience of what war is like. Beauty, Intellect Harmoniously Combined At Bryn Mawr, Writes French Magazine With what pleasure and scicniniuas did the editors of The College News read the article reprinted below in its original form! We publish along with it part of the letter in which it was enclosed. Catherine Bill, .’35, sent us the clipping, which she found in a weekly French paper: “Considering the enclosed article entirely newsworthy, perhaps also valuable as propaganda for Body Me- chanics, I am sending it to you in case you agree. It is the third of a series of articles, entitled ‘Style and Beauty in New York.” The first was a most illuminating description of a cheap New York hairdresser with her wonderful friends and artistic way of making up her customers. The sec- ond is an alluring account of Eliza- beth Arden’s reducing camp_ in The third contains an appre- ciation of Bryn Mawr. . Apparently the theme of the author is to en- courage French women to copy the ‘belle Américaine’ in sensible diet, in sports, in bright colors, in calmer make-up. Her one criticism so far has been that American women over- dress a good deal of the time. Other- wise the article is unadulterated praise, If New York copies Paris, Paris copies’ New York with twice the afervor and with much more sincerity. In every article written for women, the author is exhorting the women of France to become conscious of ‘la ligne.’ It is strictly nationalism. The French Academy of Beauty, -unof- ficially, is. worried because French women are no longer the most beau- tiful in the world. Bryn Mawr ap- parently has the lead! . called Marianne and is a weekly. It is one of the most popular weeklies because of its clever cross-word puz- zles and articles by André Maurois. Conclusion: Most of France knows of Bryn Mawr as the spot where beauty and intellect are harmoniously combined.” We reprint below the part of the article which pertains to Bryn Mawr College. The ‘author is. Madame Auclair, whom students may remem- ber from her visit to the campus. The article is reprinted in French, so get out your dictionaries and incidentally get some practice for the French Oral next spring! “J’ai eu le temps de visiter le collége de Bryn Mawr, qui rouvrait juste avant mon départ.

Progressive Teaching Principles Discussed Miss Katherine Taylor Believes Children Ought To Express Ideas In Work APPRENTICE JOBS OPEN Common Room, November 7.—Prin- ciples of teaching in progressive schools and opportunities afforded to apprentice teachers were discussed by Miss Katherine Taylor, of the Shady Hill School, Cambridge, Mass., in the first vocational tea of the year. She emphasized the attempt of the teacher to relate the varied studies pursued by the children and to hold their in- terest by carrying over the ideas de- devolped in one course into others. Attention to the individual needs and capacities of the children is an important. principle. Miss Taylor showed some interesting drawing work to illustrate this... The youngest pupils are taken out into the school yard and set to work drawing some such com- monplace object as the school build- ing. Each one is encouraged to draw exactly: what he sees. The differ- ences among the drawings were amaz- ing, not so much in quality as in the varied impressions of the same thing recorded by each child. The work in drawing is continued until the sev- enth.or eighth grade and follows the line of( individual development. Scienée is taught in much the same way. Everything is illustrated by visual experience and by laboratory experiment. The children do not draw voleanos after reading about what| they are like; instead, they build a) working volcano out of plasticene. Every chance idea advanced by a pupil which has a possibility of prac- tical use.in the class is taken over by the teacher as an aid in leading discussion or in developing some new topic. If one of the pupils mentions reading something about the League | of Nations in the paper, the teacher | brings the matter up in history class and describes how the League came into being. Then, perhaps, a problem for. the English class will arise through attempts to write an account Continued on’ Page Five Sunday Movies on Main Line! It will be noted by those who devote themselves to the perusal of the news of the local movies in this newspaper that the Seville and Anthony Wayne theatres have scheduled — regular screen performances on Sunday after- noon and evening at regular weekday times. The new system goes into ef- fect this week. , This is the beginning of a new era; from now on movies will be shown at 2, 7 and 9 o’clock every Sunday. The law that makes this possible is a State statute allowing the towns to ke their own decisions in the matter df Sunday movies. The results of the recent local elections made the pos- sibility a reality. This is the first time in the history. of the Seville that a regular non-benefit performance has been given on Sunday. The movie scheduled for next Sunday is Fred must be taken to have it look as well as possible. Experts say that walk- ing o e grass does not hurt it when the soil is hard and dry. In wet weather, however, all walking on the grass, particularly with sharp heels, is injurious because it breaks ‘off the outer skin and prevents the grass from growing again. One must also be very careful not to walk on the grass during thaws, when the ground is soft. The. Fiftieth Anniversary celebra- tion deserves several comments. Miss Park particularly wished to thank the undergraduates for their share in mak- ing the*week-end a success. In par- ticular she thanked the Rockefeller students for giving up their rooms to the guests of the college; the decora- tors of the gymnasium, who success- fully used leaves and flowers to beau- tify it; the ushers at the various pro- grams, and the students who sang in the “Historical Sketches.” The Fiftieth Anniversary cere- monies were remark&ble, because while celebrating the achievements of the present, we still had our hand on the beginning of things. The pres- ence of Miss Thomas and of twelve out of thirty-two members of the class of 1889, emphasized the bond that unites the present with the past. This par- ticular bond, in the natural course of events, can never be so vividly rea- lized at any future celebration. ° It had been hoped that the whole college could be present at the Satur- day morning program, but this proved impossible. It was through a misun- derstanding and a mistake in dates that the announcement was made that Cornelia Otis Skinner would give a monologue on both nights. She at first accepted for Saturday night alone, and then when she found that she would be free on Friday only, she accepted by mistake for the dinner on Saturday instead. of Friday. Only after the announcement had _ been made did she explain that the Satur- day performance was impossible. A letter from Dr. Charles Hatfield, head of the Henry Phipps Institute for the Study, Treatment and Pre- | vention of Tuberculosis, was also read. He regretted that he had not been) able to hear Dr. Sabin, and praised | Continued on Page Four Powerhouse Troubles Cause Candle Revival The eastern end of the campus was plunged into darkness last Thursday night on two separate occasions. The first time occurred at about 6 o’clock, ' when the lights suddenly went out in| Dalton, Denbigh, Pembroke East, the | Infirmary and Dolgelly for a space of fifteen minutes. These buildings ex- hibited signs of life, however, as candles which had long been used for decorative purposes alone were draft- ed into use. The fire captains thus had a busy time seeing that no fires were started by this means. After the lights came on theré were many queries about the cause of all the trouble. No one seemed to know. Mr. Dougherty was busy trying to re- pair the damages. During supper it was announced that the lights would go off again and students hurriedly assembled candles for the _ tables. When the lights went off they pro- ceeded to enjoy the rest of the -meal by candlelight. ‘Those in Denbigh were so pleased with the idea that they want. to eat dinner once a week by candlelight, because of its civilizing effect! The most profound “esearch by members of the News board, however, has not revealed the cause of the trouble and all we could find out is the rather obvious fact that something somewhere was wrong with the wir- ing. . § ods of attaining that desire were ex- pressed. by the seven speakers at the college mass-meeting for peace. All agreed that nationalism is an unjusti- fiable evil, that peace must have more stable foundations than artificial trea- ties, and that the winning of peace de- pends not so much on talking as on acting. The moment for this action is not in a year or so when we are out of college, but right now! Eleanor Sayre, president of the In- * ternational Relations Club, introduced the seven speakers, who represented various departments and _ interests among the faculty and students. Dean Manning referred to the argument for pacifism which Norman Angell pro- pounded in his book, The Great IIllu- sion, published a few years before the war. Today we are returning tg his argument that war is unprofitable for ‘everyone, victor and victim alike. Directly after the Great War, it was claimed that the world was now safe for democracy, but events have con- tradicted this. Similarly, the stress on pacifism because of the horrors of war has lost its force. Today na- tional rulers are still claiming that they must make war to gain some- thing for their people. Actually, the people gain nothing. The history of colonization. shows that the problem of overpopulation and unemployment is never solved by colonization or ex- pansion. In two cases, those of Great Britain and New England, the people are worse off than before. England is commonly called a supersaturated nation; but the United States is in the same-_situation, and_it—rests with us, therefore, to take the responsibil- ity which we are now shirking. By our reluctance in this instance to take part in the struggle for peace, we are bringing on another World War. Eleanor Fabyan, president of the Undergraduate Association, put her question: “Are we willing to pay the price of peace?” Both individuals and Continued on Page Three a Academic Processions Are Arranged By Rank The occurrence of a history-making academic procession at Bryn Mawr a week ago has sent a wandering report- er out to gather the facts on how such processions are arranged. The prob- lem of placing notables in their proper rank must have been an extremely delicate matter before a fixed system was established. Now at Bryn Mawr, the Baccalaureate procession is ar- ranged in order of descending rank, the president walking at the head of the procession. For Commencement the order is reversed, and the pro- cession goes according to ascending rank, with the higher ranking digni- taries marching toward the end of the line and the president last of all. It was the Commencement order. which was followed at the Fiftieth Anniver- sary celebration. As is the custom, visiting dignitaries, such as the representatives of colleges, universities and learned societies at the recent celebration, are arranged in chronological order of the founding of the several institutions which they represent.- The faculty of the college, led by the two deans, line up in con- formity to the alphabetical order. of the department in the college, and within that by rank of. professor and instructor. . ulty is also a representative of an institution, he may walk in whichever position in the procession that he wishes. In the recent ceremony there were some alumnae who were both. | representatives of their classes “ahd membérs of the Board of Directors, but chose to walk with their classes.

There are a few definite steps in preparation for May Day which can- not be taken too soon. One of the most important of these is the matter of choosing the plays which are to be presented: Most of the students seem Such, - however, is not the case, for each May Day a committee of the students to be under the impression that certain plays are regularly given. selects the «plays from a list of ten or twelve possibilities. Here is some- thing which we could be doing now while there is still time for mature consideration of the merits of each play. ' The experience of the last May Day brought home one point very definitely: the training for the folk and Morris dancing cannot begin toal soon. In 1932 active work was not begun until February, with the conse- quence that the training had to be quite intensive and the practices very frequent. -Perhaps this year it would be better to start earlier and have a longer time to learn the dances. This would have the double advantage of being easier on both teachers and pupils and of resulting in a more finished production because of the longer period of training. The Physical Educa- tion Department favors some such plan and expects to institute a system whereby the dancing for May Day will be part of the required work for freshmen and sophomores. How About It? We recently heard of an erstwhile Bryn Mawr custom that could well afford to be revived. We refer to the faculty’s practice of composing two types of questionnaires for students, one to test general information and the other to test literary knowledge. The quizzes were by no means com- pulsory: on the contrary, devised by a board of professors and taken only by those undergraduates who so desired, they were for the sake of amuse ment alone. They were really contests; and like all good contests produced a cash prize for the winner. Each member of the faculty committee com- posed a certain number of questions; and no one member could ask a question that the other members of the board were unable to answer. Thus, too erudite and too obscure questions were eliminated. The popu- larity of the questionnaires, judged by the numbers of students who used to take them, was enormous. The incentive of a ptize is necessary in contests of this sort; and the prizes could easily be offered, if, for example, fifty students would each contribute ten cents towards a general pool, thereby making up a five- dollar prize. Everybody likes questionnaires—witness the popularity of ‘such games as “Culture” and “Ask Me Another”; and we believe that all who intended to take them would be willing to contribute toward a prize. Such a/system of campus quizzes would be a wholesale game of “How Much /Do You Know,” with the added spur of a numismatic prize and no dire/consequences for the runners-up. We feel sure that a revival of the questionnaire custom would meet with camnpus approval and applause. We think that the fundamental questignnaire-urge inherent in everyone would send vast numbers of under- graduates to take a quiz which would involve. no preparation and much f If a sufficient number of students would be interested in such a » doubtless a group of faculty members would consent to form a Ccammnietee and help to disinter a practice which is far too lively to remain / buried.

The following letter was recently received on the campus: “In writing this letter to you per- sonaly, I though there may be a ‘pos- sibility that I may be of ‘service to ‘| you at your institution in the way-of taking care of investigations, pertain- ing to your personal staff, student- body or any other businesses that re- quire some scrutiny in some manner or other. “T am quite certain that with my past unlimited experience as a private detective for the past twelve years and at the present time I hold a license granted me by the Courts of the Com- monwealth of Penna. “My experience in investigations have covered every branch, personal, criminal and commercial. “T have also acted in the capacity as personal body-guard for some of well-known residents in and around Philadelphia, “It was my thought that the institu- tion may be in a position to consider organizing their own intelligence bureau the same as large industrial enterprises have found it essential to do, in order to.carry out their busi- ness economically and successfull.

Book Review Whether There Be Knowledge, by Robert Henderson (J. B. Lippincott Company, Philadelphia), is the first novel of an ambitious young English instructor at the University of IIli- nois. It is the story of the senior year of a boy called Donnie Trevett, an ambitious young English major in some middle-western university who sets-out to right the wrongs of the world through the medium of the cam- pus daily paper. He is also an inter- ested participator in and spectator of the, college rows, riots and rough- : | Houses, and seems more interested in -;effating the wrongs done to the stu- dents than those done by them. _ There is reason to believe that the author and his publishers look upon In this’ |Madge Haas opinion they are deluded. Few, if any,| of the particular problems of a large middle-western co-educatianal institu- tion, menace the campus of a small eastern woman’s college such as this one, but it is safe to guess that Mr. Henderson understands the conditions about which he writes, and that hej writes. about them honestly”’as well.’ Nevertheless, his book has no message, it calls forth no crusade, nor does it even point a moral. It is badly con- ceived, badly united and, above all, badly written, Probably because it is salt about a slightly muddle-headed youth, Whether There Be Knowledge gives the impression of being confused, de- ploring in turn campus politics, na- tional politics, campus snobbishness and campus and national immorality. It gives ho suggestion, even in the mind of its central character, for bet- tering any of these unfortunate con- ditions. This lack of a solution of its difficulties could be forgiven if other authors had not made the same sort of a report so many times, and in so} much better language. The style of Mr. Henderson’s novel is characterized by a studied ineptitude, designed, no doubt, to portray the general state of its hero’s thoughts. Much of the nar- rative is interspersed with short, choppy phrases denoting informality , and modernity of style. -In- all, there is only one sentence | which tells the reader anything about the author’s purpose in writing his book, and that is this one: “He went back to finish his last year of school, and... he did not know... how little different he would be at the end of it. ...” This statement, coupled with the fact that the author hardly mentions academic work at all, save to say that Donnie could quote part of Tintern Abbey, would seem to indi- cate that the burden of his book is the futility of education. But on con- sideration of the fact that he is a col- lege instructor, one is aware that Mr. Henderson must. have had some other idea. J.T. Public Opinion To the Editor of The College News: Having witnessed the celebration of Bryn Mawr’s Fiftieth Anniversary in the last few days, it has been stir- ringly brought home to us that tradi- tion possesses inestimable worth. But through observation of present-day campus events, we have become con- vinced that all traditions are not good traditions, and we can see no reason for maintaining what are now out- ‘worn rites solely because they were performed by our college ancestors. We refer in, particular to the “Big Scare” ‘perpetrated every four years by the seniors of Merion. The cele- bration of this tradition last Thurs- day night took a form which we con- sider devoid of both humor and com- mon sense. Hazing has always been barred from Bryn Mawr as an amuse- ment unworthy of intelligent college students. That. the last demonstra- tion was not entertaining, but was actually injurious, is proved by the fact that three freshmen of Merion were so thoroughly frightened that they spent the day in bed in a state bordering on hysteria. When a col- lege tradition becomes not only an un- worthy amusement, but also a danger, we feel strongly that it should be abolished. B. HOLLANDER, ’36, A. F. WHITING, ’36, J. C, HORSBURGH, ’36, B.

The old D. C. radio in the Common Room is prac- tically useless. Therefore, last year Miss Park had the current theie changed from D. C. to A. C. If every- one would contribute 25 cents a new radio, working on the new A. °C. cur- rent, coyld be purchased. We feel that there is need of* a godd radio which would be available to every- one.

Battle After Early Scores by Cary,. Hasse MERION SECONDS LOSE Bryn Mawr, November 9.—The var- sity hockey team gained a victory with a score of 5-3 in a hard-fought game with .the Germantown Cricket Club. Though Germantown played with an incomplete team, it managed to give Cary walked away with the scoring honors by tallying three times, while Bake-| . ‘well and Hasse each added a goal. At the beginning of the game both teams. were incomplete, Germantown with two empty positions and Bryn Mawr minus a right fullback. In the middle of the first half Seltzer came rushing down to the field to take her position as back. Germantown pro- duced one more forward in the second half, but was still forced to face the Bryn Mawr eleven with only ten players. Bryn Mawr made a flying start by scoring soon,after the opening whistle. The ball was carried down the field and Cary. sent it into the goal with- out much of a struggle. Hasse soon followed suit by tallying. another. point with a nice shot from the right.) Dur- ing most of the first half the ball was kept in the vicinity of Germantown’s striking circle; but Bryn Mawr, after the first two goals, could not seem to get past the opposing team’s efficient goalie. After some indecisive passing on: both sides, Germantown took the ball’ down the field and the center made a weak drive toward the goal. Smith stopped it easily and kicked it toward the back-line. Parry, Ger- mantown’s speedy right inner, recov- ered it and passed it nearly to the ceriter, who sent it into the goal with a beautiful drive. The play was so fast that it caught Smith entirely off her guard. Before the end of the half, Germantown managed to score again with a hard drive by the center half.. When the whistle blew the score stood at 2-all, The second half opened with a burst of excitement when Bakewell made a long run from the 50-yard line. When she reached the striking circle she made_one of her-bullet-like drives in the direction of the goal, but the ball bounced off the goal post and over the back-line. After several. minutes of play Cary scored again with a care- fully planned goal, By a series of quick, small passes she dodged the opposing defense players in the strik- ing circle and flicked the ball past the goalie. Germantown answered by a fast attack upon the Bryn Mawr goal which chalked up another score for them. Cary then tallied a third time after a long run from the center of the field. Within the last few minutes of play a corner was called on Ger- mantown. Brown sent the ball to Bakewell, who put it into the goal with a beautiful drive just as the final whistle blew. Bryn. Mawr on the whole played a nice game in spite of the absence of P. Evans and Jackson. There was some muddling and some unnecessary fouling on sticks. The play was con- “fined more to the sides of the field than to the center and there was less passwork than usual between the for- wards of both teams. There were a noticeable number of long runs, ‘espe- cially on the part of the wings. . Cary was up to her usual stand- ard and Hasse played a much more creditable game than she did two weeks ago. Bakewell was _ some- what hesitant during the first half. but later she snapped out of it and demonstrated a little of her shooting ability. Taggart made some nice runs, although she was unable to score on them. Since Bryn Mawr for a large part’ of the game was on the offensive, the backs made a less spec-|} tacular showing than the, forwards, They played steadily if not brilliantly |}. and were adequate i in backing up their forwards. : Line-up: BRYN MAWR . | GERMANTOWN Peewee ke e tN ees E.

Bryn Mawr’s passing was poor and the game as a whole was decidedly messy. The Bryn Mawr contingent was slow and it looked at first as though the faster Merion girls’ would overwhelm them. But. though lacking speed and ‘skill, second varsity was not outfought and managed to keep up its winning streak |, of the past few weeks. Throughout the first half Bryn Mawr was consistently on the defen- sive, The backs seemed unable to clear the ball when they did get it. Time and again it would be nipped from an opposing forward, only to be sent straight to a Merion back. The fates were kind to Bryn Mawr, how- ever, for Merion missed several op- portunities to score. The. half finally drew to its close with Bryn Mawr’s goal line uncrossed. Whether Miss Grant’s fight talk during half time cheered the team up a bit or whether the Merionites grew worse, the Bryn Mawr attack really began to threaten, though the pass- work was still poor and. the three in- side forwards muddled with each other, Finally Jane Carpenter broke away, rushed the ball down the field and shot a goal, the only one of the day. At about this time night began to fall and the play wavered uncer- tainly in midfield until the welcome blast of the final whistle sounded.

The Faculty’s skill called forth the utmost resources of the Varsity team. In fact, they were too skillful from the point of view of the spectators, for the match proved more of a hockey game and less of a circus than had been ex- pected. Varsity was on the attack most of the time, but Margaret Collier at cen- ter half proved such a firm opponent that Varsity could seldom get around her. When the undergraduates did get to the goal, Dr. Dryden’s goal pads seemed to be everywhere at once. Meet your friends at the Bryn Mawr Confectionery (Next to Seville Theater Bldg.)

Speakers Propose Many Methods To Erase War Continued from Page One nations derive certain benefits from war which .they. must give up to achieve peace. Individuals “all along the line” benefited from the last war, and thus everyone must bear the bur- den of war guilt. Among nations, peace involves the giving up of profit- able “spheres of interest,” of valuable markets which can be exploited by the greater powers. . The conflicts of such economic interests: have resulted in war. A radical solution of such dif- ficulties lies in the passible redistri- bution of natural resources. Articles in the League of Nations present the first step. toward this goal, which is part of a fundamental concept of jus- tice. Another idea of peace involving jus- tice was presented by Miss Ruth Law- son, graduate student in economics, who considered peace as a régime of law in the international community. Such a régime implies the avoidance of violence and the meting out of jus- tice. have been toward the former only, whereas it is the latter which must f JEANNETTE’S Bryn Mawr Flower Shop 823 Lancaster Avenue Bryn Mawr 570 fio ATLA) NEW YORK'S MOST EXCLUSIVE RESIDENCE FOR YOUNG WOMEN orang Woman.

The thoughts of men have} not changed so vitally in so short a time as to justify our ignoririg this basic motive for war, which must, therefore, be dealt with or adapted to internationalism before we can have peace.. e Dr. Anderson, of the Economies De- partment, discussed the difficult prob- lem of the causés of war, which are quite apart from the trivial irrita- tions commonly thought to be.the di- rect causes of a declaration of war. The deepest, most important causes are indefinable; they have to do with the development of nations and result from the conflict of material aspira- tions. The permanent staff-of experts who are doing the-important work of research in Geneva, studying how to relocate populations and how to order commercial relations are the ones who are taking the most active part in = struggle for peace. Dr. Miller emphasized two ways in which we should work for peace. He first discussed nationalism as a false claim to superiority over other nations. Today nationalism has de- veloped into a real religion, although no nation can set itself up as an ab- solute for morals. We talk of being self-sufficient, but at least 90 per cent of all we deem worthwhile is shared with other peoples. In the second place, we must do all that we can_to dramatize peace as militarism has been glorified. War can always stim- ulate enthusiasm. The spectacle of marching soldiers even of other nations can arouse us to the highest pitch, yet Einstein says that such sol- diers have need only of their spinal cords—no brains are _ necessary. WwW. Actually peace, | pacifism, needs courage as well as war—witness the heroic sacrifice of * the pacifist Indian Sikhs who allowed | themselves to be beaten to death rath- er than resist in @the cause of pacifism. Mrs. Smith spoke from the point of view of those thinking people who had lived and suffered during the war, and she advised instilling into’ the idea of peace the spirit of romantic adven- ture which has always made war so attractive. Here in college we must train ourselves, furthermore, to de- velop a critical attitude toward what is told us, a resistance to suggestibil- ity, especially to propaganda. If we can try to see clearly both sides of a question, we shall be far on the road toward peace. Finally, if we could learn to laugh at a ‘peace lecturer as we laugh at a doughboy, we could bring a spirit of comedy to support the cause of pacifism. — Sally Park presented the opinion of the Bryn Mawr students, who ought to hold to the pacifist tradition of the Quaker founders of the college. A very real way in which we can work for peace 4e“to influence the children with whom we come in contact. Many of us here can remember something about the war which made a deep im- pression on us. We could all make such an impression on some members of the coming generation, so that they would always stand against war.

Page Four aiciaiebemmamatil » THE COLLEGE NEWS nanan Ce ———— “Murder” in Senior Row + Upsets Merion. Nerves Tradition reared ‘its ugly head again, this time in Merion of a Hal- lowe’en. Four years have rolled by since the undergraduates were star- tled out of at least ten years of life by a demonstration similar to.that which was perpetrated last Thursday evening, and another four years will pass before the Class of 1939- con- tinues the tradition. Thursday’s activities included a kidnapping, a murder, ‘a case of hysterics bordering on insanity, and the terrorizing of some fifty impressionable girls. The inhabitants: of Merion smoking room were startled to learn at about eleven o'clock that one of the’ seniors was A. W..0. L. They were not reassured some twenty minutes later when they heard blood-curdling screams from Senior Row, screams which increased in: volume and fear until it was evi- dent that the author was approaching the -hall as fast as possible. The warden was hastily summoned and she courageously opened the door to admit the aforesaid senior, _ still screaming and obviously demoralized to the point of lunacy. The most coherent thing she could say or shriek was “He’s killing her!” Someone suggested a roll-call and. students were called from their rooms, if in- deed there were any not already hud- . dled in the smoking room or tending the vociferous senior. The fire cap- tain in a shaking voice called the roll and it was found that one important junior was missing: The senior was just intelligible enough now to con- firm the horrid suspicion. The wheels were set in motion for the searching of the campus and a nurse was summoned from the Infirmary. There was some comfort in knowing that Joe was “out there” between the Terror and the hall, but as the min- utes passed with no sign of rescuers or rescued in any condition whatever, Merionites grew more and more cer- tain that ‘The Worst had happened. Words can hardly picture the grow- ing despair, nor enumerate the num- ber of matches which were needed by trembling fingers to light one soothing. cigarette, nor the ounces which were lost in the anguish of that half hour. It was not until the. murdered girl was found: wandering cheerfully about the hall in bath-robe and slippers that the seniors and the warden (not to mention the nurse) broke down and confessed that it was only a joke, concocted for every fourth Hal- lowe’en by the senior class then resident in Merion. The amount of mental and physical work which was expended on the prank this year was of such vast proportions.that it would have written a dozen ‘honors reports. There is no possibility of knowing the wear and tear on the nerves of the underclassmen. The excitement outside Merion con- tinued long after the shrieks were buried inside the hall. It may be re- membered that the night was damp; certainly the kidnapped junior will not soon forget the half-hour she spent crouching beneath the dripping foliage which decorates the terrain immediately surrounding Merion. Her embarrassment was considerably in- creased when a flashlight illuminated her countenance, and she found some half-dozen undergraduates of the University of Pennsylvania gazing li AB A «RAR AB BN RE.

Students Enjoy Work At Community Center The Community Center started off with a bang this year, with .over twenty freshmen signing up for it on their interest cards. Some are very anxious to go and were very genuinely disappointed when told they could not help till after mid-years. Reports come in from enthusiastic upperclass- men who have set out rather doubt- fully, feeling very self-sacrificing, but who have come back from: “really loads of fun,” as they term it. This year two afternoons a week (three when schedules permit it) two girls go together to the Center, either by bus or by bicycle. Miss Flander’s successor meets them at the door. She is a very efficient and capabie person who, before taking charge at Haver- ford, was a social worker in Philadel- phia tenements. the college girls is very much needed, as she is alone with only one helper to take care of all the children. The Center is now being organized in such a way that going to it will be a pleas- ant experience for the college girls as well as for the community chil. dren. Small clubs of about eight or ten members are being started under the leadership of two volunteers from Bryn Mawr. A Dramatic Club has already given an interpretation of Cinderella; and the two officers of the club have been treated to a special production of an exciting play about shipwrecks off the coast of Louisiana. A Cooking Club and an Art Club are also. being considered; but so far the weather has been too fine for any indoor activities, so baseball and other athletic games have gained great favor. The Bryn Mawr girls go in shifts which are arranged in such a manner that each student goes to the Center once every two weeks for one hour and a half. They really accomplish something since the children love to have “Teachers,” as they say, come front life which is so different from the one they lead. After school they come to the Center, families of three and four, because their fathers and mothers are still at work.

Willie Macfarlane adds: “Camels are mild. They don’t get my wind.” Miss Helen Hicks brings up the feminine viewpoint. ““There’s a del- icacy of flavor in Camels that ap- peals to women. Camels never inter- fere with one’s wind.” And Denny Shute says: “I switched to Camels | years ago. I smoke them constantly, without upsetting my nerves or dis- turbing my wind.” You'll Like Their Mildness Too! Such experiences with Camels can be matched right among your own friends.

Lake dis- cussed the development of drama ‘in Greece and Rome. There were basic differences ‘between the origin of the- atrical art in the two countries. ‘In Greece it arose from the celebration of festivals which usually took place in some public spot, such as_ the threshing floor, while the audience sat on the side of a nearby hill. In Rome, although the drama arose likewise from the observing of a festival, the actual theatre was different, ‘since the Romans did not gather around a threshing floor, but around a special stage set up for the purpose.. They remained standing because the Ro- mans felt that it was sacriligious to sit down at the theafre. - In Greece, the primitive plan of sitting on. a hillside. soon gave’ way to that of seats hollowed out in the hall.~ Then gradually these were re- placed by marble benches as the the- atre grew more formal. At ‘first the drama was very simple and the actors were few in number. With the desire for changes in clothing and for the expression of more complicated themes, the need arose for a retiring room and for a bigger stage. Danc- ing was always an important part of the Greek drama, and the number of dancers increased as the plots became more complicated. ' Then these, too, had need of a retiring room. Thus arose the permanent stage building back of the orchestra’ and the pro- scenium where the action took place. Attention began to be payed to the background against which the acting occurred. and Ive heard tell they satisfy ane They do say theyte milder and taste better t
