Mawr,” declared Miss Taft.
“No class of people were fonder of Dr.
Shaw than the Undergraduates of Bryn
“Dr. Shaw
had the enthusiasm, the spontaneity and
even the humor of youth. She really loved
Bryn Mawr, and I think she felt closer to
it than to any other woman’s college. So
it is particularly appropriate that we should
have some memorial to her.”
Mrs. Miller told of her experiences in
working side by side with the great suf-
frage leader. “Dr. Shaw was a pioneer,”
she said, “in that she went to college, was
a doctor, a minister and one of the greatest
propagandists and orators we have had in
this country.” Describing her experiences
while traveling with Dr. Shaw on a speak-
ing tour in Northern Pennsylvania, suffer-
ing from jerkwater trains and one-night
stands, Mrs. Miller declared that from Dr.
Shaw she learned what it was to be a “good
salt” under trying circumstances. She was
present in Washington when the Secretary
of War conferred the Distinguished Serv-
ice Cross upon Dr. Shaw, who at that time
was debating whether to go abroad with
President Thomas or tour twenty-five
states for the League to Enforce Peace.
She chose the latter course because she felt
it her duty, and it was on this trip that
she was seized with her last illness. Dr.
Shaw’s work was finished,” concluded Mrs.
Miller, “and she died at the zenith of her
powers, knowing that the women of the
world were going to have the fullest oppor-
tunity to show their capabilities.”
Mrs. Gellhorn, who is the chairman of
the Committee for the Anna Howard Shaw
Memorial Fund, spoke of the particular
appropriateriess of honoring Dr. Shaw’s
memory by the endowment of a chair of
politics. “Dr. Shaw,” she said, “has given
us opportunity, and it is our responsibility
now to see that we push open all the doors
which she has opened just a crack. She
has friends and admirers all over the world
who will be only too glad to contribute to
such a chair. It is our golden opportunity
to pay back in some tiny measure what
she has done for us.”

1923S PARADE SONG PARODIED
Sophomore Gets Into Freshman Song
Practice
After four days of apparent indifference,
1922, by suddenly switching off the lights
in the gymnasium, at a Freshman song
practice on Thursday night, learned the
words of ’23’s parade song, ten minutes
before the band arrived.
Since the regulations required that they
should not enter a class meeting, the
Sophomores waited at the door of the gym-
nasium until the song-practice started, and
then turned off the lights from the roof
just at the moment when the Freshmen
had been given copies of the song, which
they were instructed to follow. In the
darkness, S. Baron slipped in the door,
memorized the words and then left the
building with the Freshmen. She repeated
the words to C. Skinner, who wrote off a
parody, word by word, without knowing
the tune, which proved to be “Columbia,
the Gem of the Ocean.”
The Freshmen, led by the band and es-
corted by 1921 with torches, paraded to the
hockey field where the Sophomores, also
with torches, were dancing around the bon-
fire. After a song by the Juniors to 1923,
the procession went back to Pembroke
Arch for singing.
Graduate Club Plans Big Athletic Year
Athletic plans for the coming year were
discussed at an enthusiastic meeting of the
Graduate Club last Friday evening in Den-
bigh. The spirit of the meeting was that
of determination to get more in touch with
the undergraduates’ activities.
The graduate Athletic Board is made up
of Eleanor Dulles, '17, the temporary ath-
letic representative, and six members, elect-
ed by the halls, to have charge of different
sports. The hall representatives are Miss
Barker, Cambridge; Miss Early, Vander-
bilt, 18; Miss Goldstein, Barnard,\'18; Miss
Woods, Dickinson; Miss Price, Cambridge,
and M. Gilman, '19,
CHEYNEY STUDENTS TO: SING AT
SOCIAL SERVICE PARTY
Singers from the Cheyney Training
School for Colored Teachers will be a

Social Service Committee in the gymna-
sium Saturday evening, when students
can volunteer for the different branches
of Social Service work. Dean Smith,
Dr. Kingsbury, Miss Barrett, director of
the community center, and H. Kingsbury,
20, chairman of the Social Service Com-
mittee, will speak. The college orches-
tra will play for dancing before and after
the speeches.

lies as much on the|
se and listened to President Thomas
open college,” said Acting-President Taft
last Wednesday morning. “I suppose it is
the first time since the time when President
Thomas became president of the college
when she has not given the opening ad-
dress.
“This year we are happy in having the
‘|catastrophe of the war behind us and in
knowing that the outcome is what we have
hoped and prayed for during the last five
years. Though we are not called on for
any such effort of strenuousness as during
the war, we still have to face the problems
which come with reconstruction, and we
still have to face the problem of whether
or not we are going to be dominated by
any one class or whether we are going to
fight to have true democracy.
“I think that anyone who has been in
Europe in the last year realizes that con-
ditions are no more in a state of equilibrium
than while Europe was in the throes of
war. The economic condition, about which
we heard on every side while travelling
through Europe, is as critical, if not more
so than during the war. The reconstruc-
tion of Europe can scarcely be said in a
material sense to have begun and the prob-
lem of how that is to be brought about
the world is now facing.
“The United States is certainly more for-
tunate in a material sense, but we are fac-
ing the same problems of the classes, of
class antagonism and class sturggle.
Necessity of Education in World Crisis
“It is for the educated people of the
country to bring about some conception of
the possibility of the reconciliation of the
interests of the different classes and it is
going to be a very complicated matter and
is going to take careful reasoning. The
greatest contribution that educated people
can make at present is to preach class co-
operation—not class antagonism—and the
possibility that the interests of all may be
reconciled.
“Here at Bryn Mawr we will try to give
you the best and broadest training we can
in four years of undergraduate work so
that you will be grounded and prepared to
meet the struggle.
Bryn Mawr’s Problem
“Bryn Mawr has its own peculiar prob-|
lem of reconstruction. The rise in the cost
of everything, from the wages of the
Italians who work on our grounds to the
food which the students eat, has made it.
this campaign. President Thomas and I
impossible to support the college on the old
financial basis. Last spring the Directors
were compelled to raise not only the price
of board, but the price of a large number
of the rooms in the college. It seems as
if we are getting away from the times when
girls and boys can get an education for
themselves with only slight help from their
families unless they go to the State Uni-
versities or colleges near their own homes.
All the other women’s colleges have had
to raise their rates. This means that there
will be one class of girls who will not be
able to be a part of our college community
and who will be a distinct loss to our
colleges.
“At the same time that the Directors have |
had to realize the necessity for raising the
rates for the material things at Bryn Mawr |
las I think President Thomas is glad every
themselves unable to live on their salaries.
the Faculty of Bryn Mawr have found
ss te ek sti. sec, sola denice ta
\|that we were suffering together, when we
were all of us making every possible effort
|to give all we had to the cause and were
ready to bear any discomfort in silence,
the difficulties of the professors were not
stressed, but the situation last year could
no longer be overlooked. I wonder how
many of the undergraduates realize what
it is to have as a maximum possible salary
$3000 on which a whole family must in
many cases live and on which the children
must be educated. It means that it is abso-
lutely impossible to continue to live in an
adequate manner at all and educate one’s
children.
“I am not going to stress upon the diffi-
culties of the members of the Faculty—
they would be the last to wish to be an
object of pity—but you must recognize that
no intelligent, in fact, no sane man or
woman is going to choose a profession
which. gives no opportunity or hope of
earning a decent livelihood. And if the
intellectual life of Bryn Mawr is to con-
tinue, if the intellectual life of any of the
colleges of the country is to continue, either
their annual rates must be raised many
hundreds of dollars or their endowment
must be greatly increased.
Student Building Less Pressing Need
“This is the paramount financial question
which is facing Bryn Mawr today, and I
think the undergraduates will feel, as the
Alumnae have felt, that every other object
must give way to it. We have hoped again
and again that we are going to be able to
build our Students’ Building. It is cer-
tainly a necessity in the lives of the under-
graduates if they are to continue to have
any kind of adequate dramatics. But I
think that you will all of you appreciate
and that you are all of you generous enough
to realize that it is possible for you to go on
with makeshifts a little longer and it is not
possible for the Bryn Mawr Faculty to go
on any longer with their present salaries.
“In view of the fact that the cost of
living has increased nearly 100% since the
last time that the salaries of full professors
were raised, a 25% increase would be quite
inadequate. The Alumnae who met in con-
ference here last week recognized this fact
and voted that the drive should be made
for $2,000,000 so that Bryn Mawr need not
Start a second drive as soon as the first
million was completed and so that an in-
crease could be made so substantial that
_the professors would be able to live more
or less on the scale—modest enough, in
truth—in which they lived before the war.
“The undergraduates cannot make any
considerable contributions of their own to
have both felt during the war that under-
graduates were asked too often to make
contributions to every kind of fund. We
don’t wish Bryn Mawr to have the reputa-
tion of making continual financial demands
on the undergraduate body. But we hope
that the undergraduates will help us by
giving their own evidence as to the need
of Bryn Mawr at this time and by giving
us the names of any of their friends or
acquaintances who they think might con-
tribute if they were approached.”
In her welcome to the Freshman class,
Miss Taft said in part: “Some of you may
have felt that Bryn Mawr's entrance re-
quirements, which had to be met before you
could assemble here, were unnecessarily
crotchety and unreasonable; but I am glad,

“The time has. come,” ‘the walrus said,
tion to stop arid take a second breath.” |
There are, to quote last year’s president,
three classes of people in college; those
who conscientiously obey Self Govern-
ment, those who are entirely oblivious
to it, and those who start out with the
definite purpose of breaking it. To the
second class belongs the great majority,
those who are absolutely oblivious.
In the Boston Police Strike the by-
standers in a crap game were held to
be as guilty as the players. Counten-
ancing the breaking of a law is approv-
ing it.
Bryn Mawr’s reconstruction this year
is to make public opinion so strong that
it will be considered a disgrace to break
rules or fail to report others who break
them. Shall Bryn Mawr undergradutes
take a definite stand in regard to uphold-
ing the Association or shall they admit
they are incapable of Self Government?
Divided We Stand
The puzzle of arranging courses in
previous years could rarely be solved
nicely because many of the large, re-
quired classes would meet at the same
hour. This year the office has evolved
the happy plan of having different di-
visions of the same class meet at dif-
ferent hours. Many undergraduates are
grateful for the solution.
A Sporting Proposition
Since reorganization is the order of
the day and we are changing everything
from Sophomore Rules to the constitu-
tion of the Athletic Association, why
not begin with Parade Night? It is very
pleasant for the Freshman to have an
agreeable companion constantly by her
side who is willing to “sell her birthright
for her song,” and even help the Fresh-
man polish her shoes and unpack her
trunk, but it is the Sophomore who gets
the worst of it all around. She loses
her sleep, temper and healthy color
sleuthing, and then is forced to abandon
her prey at the critical moment if re-
quested to do so. More than that, she
has no opportunity of getting the tune
itself, because not even the Freshmen
know the tune until the band starts
playing. Why not require a song prac-
tice where the tune is-really learned by
the whole class, adopt a more subtle
form of sleuthing, and give both sides a
sporting chance?
[Specially con ributed from the Alumnae}|
Bryn Mawr was never so beautiful.
Autumn red makes playful streaks across
the ivied walls of Denbigh, the afternoon
sun dreams golden in the hollows, and the
mist on the lawn at night is fairy-haunted.
In the world the war is over. Here, in
the precious little world, within the walls
of college, where the days are rich with all
there is in history and poetry, and bright
with the secrets of science, this year seems
more full of promise even than other years.
But into the picture stalks something less
eternal, less of the academic legend, a giant
problem, passing his hat and crying that
all this loveliness shall not endure unless
the Endowment Fund Campaign marches
steadily toward success. “Two million dol-
lars by June, 1920,” sounds like a black
responsibility hanging over the college. It

Athletic Association to Change
Constitution Tomorrow Night
Changes in the constitution of the Ath-
letic Association to enlarge and reorganize
the Executive Board and change the man-
agement of sports will be made at the

EURYTHMIC DANCING OFFERED
Pageant Next Spring Will Be Staged by
M. Kranz "19
A specjal college course in Eurythmics,
by Mr. Placido de Montoliu, character
and folk dancing, which are included in
the reorganization of the dancing depart-
ment this year, will be represented next
spring in a pageant managed by Mar-
guerite Kranz, ‘19.
For the Eurythmic course of twenty
lessons, which will replace Miss Kirk’s
nature dancing, a charge of $5.00 a semester
will be made. The classes will be divided
into advanced and elementary. Mr. de
Montoliu will explain his work on Wed-
nesday evening, October 15, at 9 p. m.,,
with demonstrations by Mrs. de Mon-
toliu and Miss Lehman.
The theory of pageantry will be
taught by Miss Kranz, stage manager
last year for "Varsity dramatics, who is
studying pageantry in New York this
winter. She will come to Bryn Mawr
once a week for this purpose, to teach
character dancing and to organize the
spring pageant. A committee of under-
graduates from the various dancing
classes will work with Miss Kranz in
staging the festival.

Acting President Taft Addresses Students
on Opening of Thirty-fifth Year
at Bryn Mawr College
(Continued from Page 1)
year, to have so large a number say that
they have chosen Bryn Mawr because they
felt that the standard of the entrance re-
quirements was the highest in the country
and because that made it seem worth
doing.”
Miss Taft urged “the freshmen to get
started as soon as possible and not to sit
back and think they can wait until the mid-
dle of the year to begin to study.”
In speaking of the death of Dr. Jessen,
Miss Taft said that he “always worked
throughout his term at Bryn Mawr for the
maintenance of high standards, not only in
German, but all through the college. He
spoke again and again in Faculty meetings
in favor of keeping up the standards for
which Bryn Mawr had always stood. I
hardly think the students realized it, but
he was tremendously interested in the wel-
fare of Bryn Mawr College. The last four
years of his life were of course darkened
by the war, and it is very sad to think that
he died just at the time when there might
have been a happier period in store for
him.”
Educational Conditions in Europe
Referring to her trip with President
Thomas in England. Miss Taft said: “In
England, where the enthusiasm of women
for education is far greater than it has
ever been, the accommodations are entirely
inadequate and all the women we met were
in despair over the lack of funds, the lack
of buildings, and the lack of accommoda-
tions generally for girls who wish a college
education. It seems a real tragedy that in
England girls should be deprived of it who
see in it their best hope of a useful and
happy life. In France, where the work of
the women in the war has been fully recog-
nized, there has been, I am sorry to say, a
certain reaction on the part of educational
authorities against women due to the fact
that they are afraid they will wish to take
the place of men in some of the teaching
positions. The women are no longer allowed
to compete with men in some of the exam-
inations. I don’t think that this will really
affect the question of the possibility of
French women getting as good an education
as they have in the past, except that it
seems unfortunate that at this time France
should return to a double standard in the
matter of education because these examina-
tions are a most important factor of the
French educational system.
“Here in America we have a great deal
still to do for women’s education. We still
need money, and it is harder to get money
for women’s education than for men’s. The
great numbers of wealthy alumni of men’s
colleges will always give money. The
graduates of women’s colleges have very
little money, and it is necessary for them
to depend upon the friends of women’s
education all over the country for their
endowment. But you who are assembled
here this morning have the best opportunity
of getting the best education you can, and
I want to tell you that I think you are all
very fortunate young women.”

“COLLEGE COURTESY” SUBSTITUTED
BY 1922 FOR SOPHOMORE RULES
College Courtesy Rules, which were
substituted this year by 1922 for Sopho-
more Rules, were read to the Freshmen
Wednesday night. In place of the mock-
solemnity of the former midnight read-
ings, the hall meetings were conducted
in a quiet and dignified manner.
Under this ‘new plan, the rules, which
are practically unchanged, are to be en-
forced not by the Sophomores but by
the Freshmen themselves, and any criti-
cism of their behavior is to come from
the Junior President. The Sophomores
emphasized the point that there is no
difference between the two lower classes,
both of which are bound by the same
rules of courtesy to upper classmen.
ges, the University of Rad-|!
Undergraduate workers will be n
large numbers, according to Miss
70 of them for the children’s activities
alone; volunteers may register at the
and story-telling, library and clerical work,
students can help with parties and at fac-
tory noon-hour, given over to recreation.
The community spirit of service and of
respect for others’ possessions fires every
one at the center. A group of boys, last
week, when they had carelessly broken a
padlock, said proudly to “charge it up to
us boys of the Eagle Club. We've got a
rep to keep up at the center.” Another
boy, a Russian carpenter, was so grateful
for his English lessons that he wanted to
make a blackboard “free” for the center.
Miss Barrett has been working since she
left college under the Industrial department
of the Y. W. C. A. During the war she
was executive of the community center of a
big munitions plant outside of New York.
Miss Bering, assistant, has worked at
Spring street for five years, spending one
summer at Bates, and Miss Robertson, sec-
retary, has done social work in the hospital
clinics of Providence.

Cc. A. WELCOMES FRESHMEN AT
FORMAL RECEPTION
Evening dress, dancing and refresh-
ments distinguished the C. A. reception
Saturday night from the informal gam-
bol held out-of-doors last year on ac-
count of influenza.
Dean Smith gave in her speech a
description of the beginning of the asso-
ciation in 1909-1910, when, chiefly at the
instigation of Miss Applebee, the two
opposing religious associations — The
League for the Service of Christ and
the Christian Union—became one.
Darthela Clark, president of the Un-
dergraduate Association, described its
aim and activities and emphasized the
fact that the association is run not for
the officers and committees, but in the
interests of the entire undergraduate
body. Alice Harrison lifted the veil on
the intimate details which, according to
her amusing account, Self Government
learns about the student's life.
