DR. CRENSHAW AND DR. HUFF
SPEAK AT DOCTORS’ CLUB TEA
Dr. Crenshaw talked on his war work
with gases and Dr. Huff on war uses of
radium, at the Doctors’ Club tea in Pem-
broke East on Wednesday.
“Gas was considered, on the whole,
the cheapest way of killing Germans,”
said Dr. Crenshaw in telling of the
methods of chemical warfare. Phosgene,
one of the most poisonous gases, causes:
sudden death after three or four days
from accumulated secretions from irrita-
tion in the lungs. Mustard gas, besides
producing blindness, is poisonous to
breathe and burns through clothing.
Masks were a problem as well as gases,
because they had to be altered often for
the different kinds of gas. Due to our
secret service work in Germany, they
were usually ready two or three weeks
before an attack.
Emphasizing the great future of ra-
dium, Dr. Huff told of the amounts sent
abvoxd for use in treating cancers and
scars and in all kinds of night work. In-
struments for use at night in airplanes
and ships have luminous dials containing
radium. '

ing effects can be obtained, rather than

DR. Re der DAVIS SPEAKS
First Woman Commissioner Tells of Her
Work
Dr. Katherine Bement Davis, who as
chairman on the Commission of Parole
and Correction in New York City holds
the biggest position of that sort ever
held by a woman in the United States,
spoke Wednesday evening under the
World Citizenship Committee of the
cans
Distinguishing between the terms pro-
bation and parole, Dr. Davis said that
probation is applied to a person convict-
ed but not sentenced; parole to a person
who has been dismissed from a penal
institution still under the law. The sys-
tem of suspended sentence which had
been used before probation came into
effect accompished little, according to
Dr. Davis.
Good Judge is Like a Physician
“Very few commit crimes because they
have not enough bread and butter,” de-
clared Dr. Davis. “Heredity is often the
cause and many times environment. A
good Judge nowadays is like a physician
who investigates the past life of the child
and tries, with the help of the probation
officer, to’ remedy the situation, The
probation , officer either changes condi-
tions at home or allows the child to re-
turn or finds the child a new home. Pro-
bation is not always a success, but it fre- |
quently does much good,” continued Dr. |
Davis.
Indeterminate sentences are good for
all classes of offense. Offenders are de-
tained within a maximum period of time
until they are sufficiently cured to go
out. Different offenders require different
sentences, When the superintendent
considers the offender ready to go out
he recommends his dismissal to a board
of parole. If the dismissal is approved
he is handed over to a parole officer who
finds him employment and has general
surveillance over him until his time is
up.
In the discussion after the lecture Dr.
Davis emphasized the need for college
women with a knowledge of psychology
for work in connection with the courts.

“News” Directs Plans fie B. M. Vote
“A yote from every member of the cc
lege community and an intelligent opinio:
back. of that vote,” is the aim set fo
the Peace Treaty Referendum at Bryn
Mawr by the committee in charge.
The Referendum at Bryn Mawr has
been placed under the management of the
College News, which has appointed a
small executive committee to conduct the
voting and to plan for rallies and mass-
meetings. Members of this committee are:
Dr. Fenwick and Dr. Gray, from the Fac-
ulty; M. Buchanan, president of the Grad-
uate Club; D. Clark, ’20, president of the
Undergraduate Association, and E. Cecil.
‘21. and F. von Hofsten, ’20, from the

ory capacity.
Dr. Fenwick Opens Issue Today
To launch a program of education of
college sentiment and to provide a back-
ground for further discussion, a series of
four talks was started this morning from
8.30 to 9 in chapel by Dr. Fenwick, who
will continue the series on Thursday, Fri-
day and Saturday mornings of this week
Dr. Fenwicks plan in these lectures is to
present the history of the background of
‘the League of Nations, the fundamental
issues involved, and the six propositions
offered as a solution.
Rally on Eve of Voting
A rally of faculty, staff, graduates and
undergraduates is scheduled for Monday
evening, January 12, the night before the
voting day. Acting-President Taft will

WHEN THE MINORITY RULES
A’ drive for the observance. of quiet
hours between now and. mid-years is in
progress. Meetings of the sub-proctors
with the executive board and hall meeting
have been held to discuss the improve
ment of quiet hours. As a result of the
discussion proctors will ask a noisy party
tu break up after ten o’clock. Sub-proctors
will tell an offender she is proctored in-
stead of “shushing,” and offenders will be
warned when proctored twice. “In the
observance of quiet hours the minority
and not the majority rules,” said A. Harrt-
son, 20, in an interview with a News re-
porter.

TO TAKE INTERCOLLEGIATE REFERENDUM ON PEACE TREATY
Set Jan. 13 for Vote in Every College
Every college and university in the
country has, been asked by a national
undergraduate committee to cast a vote
on the Peace Treaty on January 13. The
object of the ballot will be to obtain
an accurate and comparative expression
of the intercollegiate point of view on
the Treaty.
The National Undergraduate Commit-
tee, consisting of the editor-in-chief of
the Columbia Spectator, the chairmen
of the Daily Princetonian and the Yale
Daily News, and the President of the
Harvard Crimson, is marshalling the col-
leges of the country, 685 ‘strong, to pre-
pare for the vote, and has wired the
College News to promote plans for tak-
ing the referendum at Bryn Mawr.
The central committee is working un-
der the direction of an advisory board
of which President Hadley, of Yale, is
chairman, and on which Presidents But-
ler, of Columbia; Lowell, of Harvard, and
Hibben, of Princeton, are also serving.
To Vote. on Six Propositions
The votes in every college of the fac-
ulty on one hand and the student body
on the other will be cast separately and
will give every member of the college
community a chance to declare himself
“ves” or “no” on the four propositions :—
1.—I favor the ratification of the
League and Treaty without amendments
or reservations.
2—I am opposed to the ratification of
the League and the Treaty in any form.
3.—I am in favor of the ratification of
the Treaty and the League, but only with
the specific reservations as voted by the
majority of the Senate.
4.—I favor any compromise on the res-
ervations which will make possible im-
mediate ratification of the Treaty and
the League.
5.—I favor the government proceeding
to make peace with Germany at once and
‘leaving the question of a League of Na-
tions to be settled afterwards.
6.—I favor a compromise of the reser-
i vations of such a character as will avoid
the danger of defeating ratification while
‘still making clear that America can only
‘be involved in war by a declaration of
Congress, that domestic questions, and the

Voting on the League
The little knowledge that the averag-
college student possesses about the League
of Nations is a dangerous thing. Knowing
next to nothing about its organization, she
exclaims fervently, “Oh, a League of Na-
tions would be simply wonderful—so dem-
ocratic!” or in 4 wise tone, “We must be
careful about entering leagues—the Mon-
roe Doctrine, you know,” adding to clinch
her argument, “Father says its not to be
thought of.” Again, she may smile vague-
ly when the subject of the League is in-
troduced over the tea-cups, and hastily
change the subject to a rehearsal of class
championship points or a complaint of
Saturday luncheons.
MR. WELSH URGES LOVE
Says Imperialism not Practiced by Germany
Alone
“The problem of society can only be
solved by the divine principle of love”.
said Mr. Herbert Welsh, of German-
town, who spoke to the Discussion Club
Monday evening on “Spiritual Love as
a Philosophie Principle.”
The cause of the recent war, according
to Mr. Welsh was not merely the
“wicked German government,” but the
principle of imperialism, which has been
practiced in other countries, includng
America. A chief was captured during
the American Indian Wars by violation
of a flag of truce, and mediaeval torture
was used only twenty years ago tO ex-
tract information from priests in the
Phillipines.
Give Up International Duelling
“Love is the remedy for wars and
other results of imperialism,” said Mr.
Welsh. The only basis for the inter-
nation peace is to apply the golden rule
among nations. “Unless there is a leaguc
of nations,” started Mr. Welsh, “another
domineering nation will rise and another
war will ensue. We have given up the
private duel—let us give up international
duelling, and establish a court for the ad-
ministration of justice.”

WORK WITH CHILDREN’S CLUBS AT-
TRACTS LEADERS TO
CENTER
Seventy-eight Workers Registered
“Disciplining the energetic young
children is a vital and interesting acti-
vity of the worker at the Center,” the
head of the story and playhour com-
mittee told a news reporter. “The child-
ren make a great effort to ‘be good,”
she added. “One club of small boys
kept away from the center for a week,
as a self-inflicted purnishment for mis-
behaving.”
Work with the older girls this
year includes organizing a federation
of girls’ clubs to unite the isolated
clubs scattered through the village.
This federation will follow the lines
of the “Patriotic League,” formed
for service during the war, and will
include twelve clubs, those at the Center
and those of the various local churches.
At present the clubs are practicing to
sing carols on December 23, before
the homes of the sick shut-ins in the
neighborhood. They will sing in front
of any house having a lighted candle in
the window. :
Work Divided Into Five Departments
Of the seventy-eight workers register-
ed at the Center, five per cent. are from
the faculty, and 11.6 per cent. fromthe
eraduates. 1923 leads the classes with
25.7 per cent.
The work of members of the college
is divided into departments, with a stu-
dent at the head of each whose duty
it is to see that everyone goes at the
1equired time or finds substitutes. E,

“The Painter of- Seville,’ a dramatic
recitation by Leonard Williams, of Den-

Radnor maids, were particularly well
presented at the maids’ party in the gym-
nasium Friday evening.. The party was
organized by D. Smith, ’20, head of the
maids’ committee. Entertainment was
provided by the maids and several fresh-
men, refreshments were served, and to
wind up, cornucopias were distributed
from a gay Christmas tree.
“Casey Jones,” sung by E. Vincent,
93. dressed in overalls and carrying the
traditional dinner-pail, won most ap-
plause of the stunts offered by the fresh-

May Day, Urges Pres. Taft.
“The students have altogether given
up the practice of walking on the walks,
and in a body are trampling down the
grass.”’, said President Taft in chapel
last Friday. “Gray paths are being: worn
on the lawns in every direction. The
students must be responsible for keeping
the grass in condition. .It is especially
important during the present year, since
we wish the campus to be at its best

Taft.

FIRST INTERCLASS SWIMMING MEET
WEEK AFTER CHRISTMAS
Three Title-Holders in College
With the first swimming meet sched-
uled for three days after the Christmas
holidays, the class teams are seizing
every available moment for practice. The
meet, which was won by 1921 last year
by the narrow margin of one point, in-
cludes eight ‘events: 68 ft. speed swim
front, 136 ft. speed swim front, 68 ft.
speed. swim. back, 136 ft. speed swim
back, plunge for distance, form, diving,
fancy diving and class relay.
In all events but the diving the scor-
ing is 5 points for first place, 3 for sec-
ond, and 1 for third: In form ‘diving,
which includes a running and standing
dive from.the spring-board and a.table
dive, the score’ is reckoned ona basis
of 30 points for perfect form. In fancy
diving any three dives may be offered,
and they are judged according to their
difficulty, with 10 points as the standard |
of perfection. B.
DEAN SMITH PRESENTS PALESTINE
IN VESPERS AS VIVID BACK-
GROUND FOR BIBLE SCENES
Dean Smith, carrying out the spirit of
Christmas vespers last Sunday, describ-
ed a trip she had made to Palestine some
years ago.
“The white-roofed town of Haifa, with
green mountains behind and a very blue
sea, was our first view of Palestine,” be-
gan Miss Smith. Describing the “fields
of great brilliant scarlet lilies, the strip-
ed Bedouin tents, and the shepherds,
with their crooks to help the sheep and
their rods to ward off the wild beasts,”
she turned to scenes connected with
Christ’s life.
“Nazareth is a straggling town built
over three or four hills,” said Miss Smith.
On the site of the carpenter shop where
Christ worked with his father stands a
church whose beautiful altar shows
Christ at the carpenter’s bench. There
is a single well in the town, where the
mothers and their sons come for water.
“It is easy to picture Christ coming to
that same well with his mother, as mod-
ern boys do.
“When you ride on the railroad that
goes up to Jerusalem from ancient Joppa,
you realize that the going up is up every
step of the.way.. The ‘needle’s eye’ is a
small gate in the large gates of the great
wall, through which caravans are unable
to pass.
Pilgrims Still Use Jordan for Baptism
“Past the Mount of Olives and the Gar-
den of Gethsemane, with its picturesque
monks in*brown robes and. sandals, past
Calvary Hill, with the probably authen-
tic tomb ‘outside the city,’ we traveled
towards Jericho and came to the Dead
Sea,” continued Miss Smith.

“Palestine is in the hands of the Chris-

Jesus trod, we can see the busy life he
led in Palestine and realize that only
through leading a busy and active life can
we actually follow in his footsteps.”

THE COLLEGE NEWS
PASTOR OF BRICK CHURCH LEADS
CHRISTMAS SERVICE
Dr. Merrill Speaks on ‘Peace On Earth”
Dr, William Pierson Merrill, pastor of
the Brick Presbyterian Church in New
York, led the Christmas Service of the
Chretien,” by Adolph Adam, ‘Sanctus
The Choir sang three anthems, ‘Minuit
Chretien” by Adolph Adam, “Sanctus
Dominus” by Dudley Buck, and “Joseph
and Mary,” a translation of an old Nor-
mandy earol. P. Norcross, ’22, sang
ene verse of “Minuit Chretien” in solo
“Peace on earth and good will toward
men is only a mockery unless we sub
stitute Christ’s Government for the ex-
isting order,” declared Dr. Merrill, in his
sermon. Peace never seemed further
from the world than at present. Ameri-
ca is standing paralyzed watching the
dying world which is helpless to do
anything until she acts. Our failure
to achieve international leadership is a
terrible tragedy. It is idle to talk of
increase of peace until we have increase
of government, a government of justice
and righteousness. Christ’s rule is over
the hearts of men.
“The only solution to the Industrial
situation is for the principles of democ-
racy to become the basis of industry.
Service rather than personal profit must
become the key-note. We shall never
have peace until we ‘bring forth the
royal diadem and crown Him Lord of
all” as we are always singing and never
doing. Christ cannot take his kingdom,
for the kingdom of Christ more tha
any democracy depends on the loyalt:
of the governed.
“Christ is the great challenge, thy
greatest ever sent by God. The noblest
position, the greatest career’ nowadays
is to be a propagandist of his cause.”
VARIED CHRISTMAS REVELS

ned for Friday night. A. Harrison, ’20,

the feast, assisted by A. Dunn, ’22, Mis-
tress of the Manor. The Yule-log will
blaze in the fireplace to welcome the car-
ol singers, led by P. Norcross, ’22.
Pembroke will open its doors to the
other halls after dinner for dancing, the
Freshmen providing entertainment by
dramatizing a magazine.’ The table of
contents is: Cover, advertisements, edi-
torial, vers libre, and a continued story.
The Freshman committee is E. Phil-
brick, E. Matthews, and M. Von Hof-
sten.
The orchestra that plays in Pembroke
at night will furnish music at the Mer-
ion tea-daince in the afternoon. A _ buf-
fet supper will be served after the dance,
during which each class will give a stunt.
M. D. Hay, ’22, is in charge of the
party.
Radnor is dancing to its own orches-
tra for a while before joining the other
revelers in Pembroke, ‘The Yule-log and
the Boar’s.Head. ceremonies,’ and the
speeches and carols during dinner are
being managed by E. Godwin, toast-mis-
tress, and V. Park, song-leader. © In
