1918 PLEDGES $5000 MEMORIAL TO
WAR SERVICE OF CLASSMATES

Five thousnd dollars, a memorial to
Amelia Richards and Louise Tunstall
Smith, who died in war service, was
voted as a reunion gift by 1918 at its re-
union meeting last June. Practically the
entire sum was raised in one day, by
pledges at the class banquet and by tele-
grams from absent members. The memo-
rial was given to the Victory Chair of
French.



*

~~ Representatives _ of "nearly every
gaia das dks ieee see

Taylor Hall to discuss the Million
Dollar Campaign Fund for Faculty
Salaries, which will be carried on this
year.

The entire conference realized that
the subject before them affected vi-
tally, not only the future of Bryn
Mawr, but of the education of women
everywhere, and the whole cause of
education in the United States. Speak-
ing at the Saturday morning session,
Acting-President Helen Herron Taft
said, “The present campaigns to in-
crease college endowment, our own, as
well as the Princeton, Harvard, Cor-
nell, Smith and other funds, are the
most reasonable ways of pressing the
claims of the teaching profession. But
if the wealthy people of the United
States do not realize that they owe the
college professors of the country a liv-
ing, I, for one, want the college facul-



ties to form a union and strike.”
spoke of the intolerable | sean
under which so much college teaching
is done. “We cannot have successful
scholars,” said Miss Taft, “if a burden
of financial worry weighs our teachers
down. And the faculty of Bryn Mawr
this year has had a real struggle to
make ends meet. During the war, they
were silent, but since the armistice
they have been forced to bring for-
ward their case for fair salaries. It is
absolutely necessary that their case be
eased.”

“I want you to know,” said Miss
Taft to the alumnew, “that we are
faced with the difficulty of not getting
any professors at all. Even Yale was
shocked this year to discover how few
promising young men were making ed-
ucation their life work. They were all
going to other professions where it
was possible to live and support a
family.”







Show Need for Two Million
The conference opened Friday morning

‘with Mrs. Richard Francis, president of

the Bryn Mawr Alumne Association, in
the chair.

From the first the enthusiasts of the
conference wanted to make the campaign
one for a two million endowment rather
than one million. The one million dollars
would provide a faculty salaries increase
of twenty-five per cent only, and in the

face of the sixty to ninety per cent rise
in the cost of living, reported by prac-
tically every faculty family at the college,
the proposed increase seemed too small.
It was pointed out that if Bryn Mawr
wanted to keep its primacy among the
women’s educational institutions in Amer-
ica, and to maintain its place on a par
with the men’s universities, it must offer
financial attraction to the best teaching
staff possible in the country. Princeton's
campaign calls for fourteen million dol-
lars; Harvard’s campaign calls for thirty
million, “and on up.” There was no sen-
timent among Bryn Mawr alumnz for
meekly dropping to second-rateness, of-
fering to women, at the very beginning
of their enfranchisement and in the hour
of their greatest need for an education
that would make political leadership and
responsibility part of their task in life,
less than Harvard or Yale or Princeton
offered to their brothers. If two million
were needed to do this, the alumne were
willing to double their collecting job and
go ahead with the men.

The alumnz decision to ask for two
million rather than one will be referred
to the directors of the college and to the
faculty before adoption by the Alumne
Association.

Plan Organization

It was decided to open the drive imme-
diately and let it culminate at the 1920
commencement. Some time during the
year a Simultaneous Drive Week should
be celebrated throughout the country.

Pledges in the campaign, it was agreed,
should be spread over a two-year period,
so that five semi-annual payments should
be possible, bringing the final payments
in June, 1922.

The districts for the campaign are to
be strictly outlined and each district



chairman is to be paramount in her own
territory, rendering bi-monthly reports to
the central campaign office, which shall
direct and cooperate with the district
chairmen,

Publicity a Big Feature of the Work

The session on Friday afternoon was
presided over by Professor Donnelly and
was devoted to a discussion of publicity,
and how best to bring the purposes, his-
tory and present activities of Bryn Mawr
College before the public. Dean Maddi-
son spoke of the days before the war,
when Bryn Mawr had been more self-
contained, and the publicity policy of the
college had been limited to a modest an-
nouncement of routine affairs and ruled
by a quiet fear of the wrong kind of yel-
low journalism.

Miss Isabel Foster, Bryn Mawr ’15, a
graduate of the Columbia School of Jour-
nalism, and at present on the staff of the
alert Waterbury Republican, spoke like a
breeze through a newspaper city room.
She said that if Bryn Mawr, about to
make demands on the public for support
and interest, wanted the cooperation of
the press they had to accept newspaper
Standards of what was interesting. They
could not “command” space. They had
to earn it by supplying interesting news,
and becoming a good natured part of the
great number of competing organizations
that wanted a place on the front page.

Mrs. Florence Brewer Boeckel, pub-
licity adviser for the National Association
of Public Health Nurses, and for the Na-
tional Woman’s Party, spoke on Publicity
as an Art, and urged the alumne to
unite with the other colleges in empha-
sizing some one point that would have a
public appeal. She quoted Secretary
Lane, of the Department of Interior, as
saying that the United States today
lacked a common objective just at a time
when we should be most united on educa-
tional ideals, and at war with the appall-
ing illiteracy in the country. She sug-
gested that Bryn Mawr should play some
national part in bringing the country to
a common campaign for education. “Let
your appeal for money come in the rear
of your campaign for national education.”

Miss Ernestine Evans, publicity adviser
to the Bryn Mawr Alumn@ Association,
spoke on how Bryn Mawr could put its
best foot forward during the coming year.

The French, and particularly the Eng-

Italians of the intellectual classes were
anti-American and received them coldly,
in one case giving them a decided rebuff.

delegate of the Foreign Relations Com-
mittee of the A. C. A., and Miss Choate,
treasurer of the Rose Sidewick Memo-

tion given at Bedford College. by the
British University women, Dean Gilder-
sleeve spoke on the part college women
can play in creating a better understand-
ing between England and America. A
joint committee of the A. C. A. and the
British University Women met to ar

fessors.

Notice to Subscribers

The effect of the threatened strikes
and labor difficulties in the printing busi-
ness, on the College News is an increase
of $800 in the amount of the printer's
rates contracted for last June.

The News Board does not wish to raise
the subscription rates, and therefore finds
it necessary to omit the middle sheet
temporarily until conditions become more
settled.

} ie Professor Kari Jessen |

In the death of Dr. Karl Detlev Jessen
Bryn Mawr has lost a brilliant and distin-
guished scholar. To the students who
worked with him most and came to know
him best, Dr. Jessen’s genius was ever a
source of inspiration and delight. In
these days, when the trend towards the
practical and vocational in education is
so strong, the academic world cannot but
mourn the loss of one who clung tena-
ciously and fearlessly to the older ideals
of higher learning.

The war taught us teamwork, and
taught us how to drive together hard
towards a common end. But when the
war ended, the world settled back into a
confusion of issues and cross-purposes,
We say that we have sunk from the
order of the war to the disorder of peace.
But we must get a new realization that
the war is still on in the broader baitle
of civilization against anarchy. As Sec-
retary Lane has said, if the common ob-
jective that drove the Allies forward
from 1914 to 1919 was to beat Germany,
the objective of reconstruction should be
education. The economic’ situation of
the country has forced the colleges into a
united struggle against the high cost of
living. And Bryn Mawr, with her modest
two millions, is taking her place at the
side of others in this great national
movement for the right of educational
maintenance.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

sponsible for opinions expressed in this

To the students of Bryn Mawr College:

them by helping in one of the clubs or
classes, or perhaps make a poster or help
with the clerical work at the Milestone?
Maybe you would just like to see what
the others are doing. You are very wel-
come any time at the Community Center.

Helen Barrett,
Director.

_tory of Medieval Europe, Dr. David;

Drama of the 19th Century, Miss Riddell.



Shaw ‘nameitat Ohahe: Part of Drive

On Saturday morning it was announced
that an Anna Howard Shaw Memorial
Chair of Politics will be founded with the
first hundred thousand dollars collected
in the million dollar campaign.

Mrs. George Gellhorn, of St. Louis,
Bryn Mawr 1900 and a director on the
board of the National American Suffrage
Association, was made chairman of a spe-
cial committee to collect funds for the
memorial. An advisory committee com-
posed of prominent suffragists who
worked with Dr. Shaw for the passage of
the Federal suffrage amendment, will be
named next Thursday after the reception
to Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst at the col-
lege.

Prof. Susan Miniahees who proposed
the founding of the chair, said, “The Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw Chair of Politics will
have a great mission. We are at the com-
mencement of a tremendous new era of
political development. Women statesmen
are needed as well as women voters.
Bryn Mawr will train the highest type of
American women for public leadership
and political activity.”

Intercollegiate Cooperation Part of Drive

Acting-president Taft presided over the
afternoon session, where the methods of
other colleges in rdising funds were dis-
cussed by Mrs. Barrett Andrews of Smith,
Miss Elizabeth F. Johnson of Vassar, and
Mr. Herbert Clark, chairman of the Phil-
adelphia Harvard campaign. Bryn Mawr
learned that the most modern business
methods must be employed, and every
channel possible used, to appeal, both to
the loyalty and interest of alumne, and
to the public, both rich and poor, for
whom high standards of American educa-
tion have both an idealistic and practical
value.

The Bryn Mawr News will print later,
for the benefit of students and alumne,
accounts of the Vassar, Smith, Princeton
and Harvard campaigns. Mrs. Francis,
of’ the Alumne Association, says that
Bryn Mawr people must profit by news
and experience from everywhere if they
are to succeed in the task before them on
behalf of “the best and fairest college of
them all.”

The conference closed, after tours of
the buildings, an occasional excursion for
“the room where she slept in 1900,” the
“tree that was planted in '91” and many,
many talks about the future and past of
Bryn Mawr, with a dinner at the college
inn, and a demonstration of Eurythmics
of Jaques Dalcroze, Saturday evening,
under the direction of P. de Montoliu.

The Bryn Mawr Campaign has begun.
What will your share be?

Conference with the foreign delegation.
The Conference was directed by Mrs.
Robert Speer, the mother of M. Speer ’22.
Mrs. Speer was Emma Bailey ex-’94.

The part of faith in the rebuilding of
the world and the international aspect of
Christianity formed the background of
the problems brought up at the Confer-
_ence. Among the most popular classes
_were those given by the Rev. Warren S.
Archibald and the Rev. James Gordon
Gilkie. The chief series of addresses was
delivered by Dr. Fosdick, who spoke at
the last Bryn Mawr delegation meeting.

A walk up Sunrise Mountain with Vas-
sar and a picnic to which each Bryn
Mawr member invited a guest from an-
other delegation, were among the inci-
dents of the Conference. In the “movies”
taken of the Conference by the Y. W. C.
A. a potential star was discovered in D.
Rogers '20, who was featured in a “close-
up” with 1922’s class doll, “Sally Silver
Bay.”

CAMPING TRIP REVEALS POKER
FIENDS IN 1919



Hike Over Presidential Range

Noisy poker games with boys at the
same camp, mostly of 1922 Brown Col-
lege, were a feature of 1919’s camping
trip of sixteen, who gathered at Mrs.
Howe's farm, Jackson, N. H., this Sep-
tember, and silenced the doubting Thom-
ases who had predicted that the reunion
would never take place.

A’ three-day hike over the Presidential
range, after several shorter hikes, was
the climax of the trip. The week's re-
union broke up officially on the 15th, leav-
ing behind, according to the report of one
camper, “a handful of vamps, who simply
couldn't leave the mountains with all
their attractions.”

: The sixteen loyal members of the green
class were D. Peters, manager of the trip;

I, Whittier, M. Janeway, R. Reinhardt, A.

During the ten days spent in Paris,
Miss Thomas and President Taft dis-
cussed with the officers of the American
University Union, formed for the Ameri-
can soldiers in France, plans for continu-
ing the Union after the War and admit-
ting women. Recently an invitation has
been extended to the American College
Women in Paris to join the Union, and
