-M. LOUIS CONS OF PRINCETON
TO SPEAK FOR FRENCH CLUB
‘Won Croix de Guerre at Verdun
“Souvenirs d’un Ecouteur” (At the
Listening Post) will be the subject of
the lecture to be given in the chapel
next Saturday evening under the au-
spices of the French Club, by M. Louis
Cons, of Princeton University. Profes-
sor Cons was Associate in French at
Bryn Mawr from 1911 to 1914.
In August, 1914, he was teaching at
the summer school of Columbia Univer-
sity, and upon the news of the mobiliza-
tion, he and Madame Cons, who is an
American, took the first boat for France,
so that M. Cons might join his regiment,
the 112th Infantry (Corps Alpin). He
was in active service during the entire
war, being for ten months an “ecouteur
interprete” engaged in the very dan-
gerous and important task of tapping
German telephone wires, “un joli me-
tier,” to quote his own words. In No-
vember, 1915, at Verdun, he received the
Croix de Guerre.
Madame Cons, who may come to Bryn
Mawr with her husband, organized ac-
tive and valuable relief work among the
soldiers whose families were in the in-
vaded districts, and established a con-
valescent home near Paris for those of
her men who had been wounded.
TO RAISE MAY DAY EXPENSE
FUND BY STUDENT GIFTS
Graduate Play Cast
Funds to start May Day preparation
will be raised by voluntary student sub-
scription, according to a vote taken at
the Undergraduate Association meeting
last week. Members of the May Day
Committee will be in the halls next
Monday after luncheon dinner to receive
contributions.
This fund will cover damages to cos-
tumes, etc. Last May Day each student
was assessed two dollars for the same
purpose.
The graduate play, The Nice Wanton,
was cast last week as follows:
Delilagh—J. Davies
Ishmail—M. Barker
Barnabas—M. Price
Iniquity—M. Knapp
Zantippe—M. Flannery
Eulalia—F. Penrose
Worldly Shame—H. Spalding
Judge—R. Woodruff
Messenger—E. Copenhaver
Bayley—A. Newlin

WANT PIANOS AND VICTROLAS IN
HALLS OF RESIDENCE
Undergraduates Ask to Confer With Trus-
tees
That the majority of the undergraduates
wish to have removed the restriction for-
bidding pianos and victrolas in the halls,
is shown by an almost unanimous sense
of the meeting taken at a meeting of
the Undergraduate Association last
Thursday. An amendment to the effect
that the students would like to be al-
lowed private victrolas in their rooms
was voted down in favor of a single
hall victrola.
It was voted that the Board appoint
a committee to ask a conference with
BLASCO IBANEZ
To Study College Life for New Novel
“Many American girls and a great col-
lege will appear in my new novel, El
Paraiso de las Mujeres (The Paradise
of Women),” wrote Blasco Ibanez to
the president of the Spanish Club, when
he was accepting her invitation to come
to Bryn Mawr.
Since Ibanez refused an offer to go
to the University of Pennsylvania to
come to Bryn Mawr because he is anx-
ious to study the life of an American
woman’s college, he will be given an
opportunity to see as many of the col-
lege activities as possible. A water polo
game will be staged for him, so that his
desire to “see women run after a ball”
will be gratified, and he will have dinner
with the Spanish Club in one of the
halls.
VOCATIONAL CONFERENCE TO AID
PUBLICITY FOR ENDOWMENT DRIVE
Postponed Until April 9
$y a special vote of the faculty com-
mittee, the Vocational Conference has
been linked with the Endowment Fund
Drive and has been postponed until the
week-end of April 9. A rally will be led
that Friday evening by a noted educa-
tionalist, possibly President Lowell, of
Harvard.
Dean Smith, speaking in Chapel on the
results of the class votes, showed that
scientific work is the most popular, hav-
ing 291 votes. “One Freshman when ask-
ed why she had voted for astronomy re-
plied ‘Because it is the only subject of
which I know absolutely nothing.’”
Social work is second, having 246
votes. Votes for business, art, journal-
ism, home economics, teaching, law, mis-
sions, agriculture and library work fol-
low. This vote is not conclusive, since
classes conducted their voting different-
the Trustees in the matter.

Prison a Second Home for Ibanez
A self-made man and a “fighter from
the first,” according to Senorita Dorado,
Ibanez, now in his fifty-fourth year, can
look back at a life of active struggle. At
the age of 18 he was imprisoned for an
anti-government sonnet, and has been
sent to jail more than thirty times dur-
ing his life for political offenses. Exiled,
pardoned, pleading the radical cause in
person and in his writings, he was ac-
claimed leader of the Republican party.
Later, disheartened by the lack of or-
ganization among the anti-monarchists,
he set out to colonize South America,
and built a town around the bust of Cer-
vantes. When the war broke out, he
had special permission from the French
government to go to the Marne battle-
front for a realistic picture for his novel,
“The Four Horsemen.”

In intervals of exile and imprisonment
he founded a Republican newspaper, di-
rected his own publishing-house, and is
at present writing a monumental “His-
tory of the War of 1914.” He was hon-

CHAIR TO BRYN MAWR
Memorial to Anna Howard Shaw
Joint foundation of a Chair in Poli-
tics at Bryn Mawr and a Chair in Pre.
ventive Medicine at the Women’s Medi:
cal College in Philadelphia is to be the
Official National Suffrage Memorial to
Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. The vote for
the Memorial was taken at the conven-
tion of the National American Women’s
Suffrage Association, held in Chicago,
February 13.
“Pennsylvania women certainly dic
good team work in procuring for their
state the two memorial chairs,” says
the Public Ledger. The first decision of
the convention by a vote of 159 to 154
was to raise the memorial solely for
Bryn Mawr. But the Bryn Mawr dele-
gates protested that since the vote was
so close, the Women’s Medical College
should be given another chance. After
reconsideration, the final vote was to
raise a joint memorial for both colleges,
all money subscribed to be divided even-
ly between the two institutions, except
when otherwise designated.

FORMER EDITOR OF NEW YORK
TRIBUNE TO TALK ON JOURNALISM
Mr. Robert MacAlarney Coming March 5
Under Auspices of “News”
“The Adventure of Journalism” is the
subject of a talk which Mr. Robert Mac-
Alarney, former City Editor of the New
York Evening Post, Evening Mail, and
Tribune, and Assistant Professor of
Journalism at Columbia University, will
give at Bryn Mawr a week from Friday
in Taylor Hall.
Mr. MacAlarney is coming to Bryn
Mawr at the invitation of the College
News Board, and will direct his appeal
particularly to all students interested in
making writing commercially successful.
“What I shall say to you at Bryn Mawr
is not going to be all in the nature of an
address,” Mr. MacAlarney wrote to the
editor of the News. “I am coming down
to talk practically, I hope, about certain
phases of work on newspapers, and I
tain fundamentals.”

French Strategy Outwits Germans.
The situation at the battle of the
Marne illustrated the difference between
German and French psychology. The
Germans, with all their reserves in Kus-
sia, had to move up men from some
other part of their line opposite the
French strongholds. When Foch left a
gap in his line, instead of taking advan-
‘tage of breaking through there, as they
could easily have done, the Germans re-
imoved men from opposite the weak place
\to strengthen their, threatened flank.
| Foch was so sure of this move that,
twenty hours before the Germans left, he
brought up his reinforcements opposite
the gap thus formed, and later broke
through the German line. Foch’'s only
mistake,” concluded Major Bles, “was
that he thought no nation on the earth
was yellow enough to accept his armis-
tice terms.”

THE POINT SYSTEM
One of the advantages of a college
education is admittedly the training af-
forded in leadership and organization
through college activities. In as small
a college as Bryn Mawr, there are of-
fices enough for the majority of the stu-
dents to have a part in the college ma-
chinery. One of the advantages ‘of a
point system would be wider distribu-
tion of offices and the reduction of the
submerged tenth to a much smaller
fraction, The overworked general fac-
totum would vanish, and with her the
student who slips through college nu-
noticed to develop later into an organizer
of no mean ability. Why deprive the
college of good workers simply because
the voters, catching sight of familiar
names on a list of -nominees, react to
these as a matter of habit?
“R, i. P.”
It takes more courage to shoot a dog
than to let him die a lingering death.
The action of the editorial board of the
Lantern in definitely closing the life of
that publication is to be heartily com-
mended. The Lantern had outgrown its
usefulness in college thought and life
It was rarely seen by the undergraduates
because it was published during the sum-
mer, and if, it constituted a definite in-
terest for the Alumnae, it did not gain
their support in the form of spontaneous
contributions. The Alumnae number of
the Bryn Mawr Review can provide a
more living and up-to-date channel for
bringing Alumnae work to the college.
May the ashes of the Lantern rest in
peace until a definite need shall call
them to life again!

To the editor of the College News:
In behalf of the present board, I wish
to state that no “Lantern” will be pub-
lished this year, and to explain why
such a step is necessary.
“The Lantern” which started in 1891,
and of which Miss Donnelly was editor-
in-chief during her senior year, was
originally the only gollege magazine.
Later The Philistine and then Tipyn
o’ Bob were: published, but The Lantern
continued to be the most important Bryn
Mawr magazine. In 1914, Winifred Good-
all who was editor-in-chief of Tipyn
o’Bob, was also editor of The Lantern
and from that time the two magazines
have been brought out by the same
board.
Recently, The Lantern came to be
regarded as an alumnae magazine—a
very different state from that which had
prevailed a few years earlier—and the
editors found, owing possibly to war
conditions, that the alumnae’s contribu-
tions were so few in number that it was
difficult to get out a Lantern at all. In-
deed I know that last year in answer to
about twenty letters that I wrote, I re-
ceived work from only one contributor.
The year before I had had an experience
practically similar. Interest among the
undergraduates was so slight that many
of them had no idea what The Lantern
was.
While The Lantern was thus passing
into a decline, printer’s rates were rising.
For awhile The Lantern’s deficit was
made up fom the Tipyn o’Bob funds, but
when prices rose fifty per cent in one
summer, it became impossible to sup-
port a magazine that had been brought
out at a loss when rates were lower.
In view of these facts, the editors
hope that those who care particularly for
The Lantern will realize that it is impos-
sible for it to appear this year, and, that
the college may not be wholly deprived
of alumnae work, the editors have made
the present issue of the Bryn Mawr Re-
view an alumnae number.

of college life in point of view and ac-

to bring to an objective test beliefs until

and metaphysical arguments. |
not be long now, we may hope; before
the traditional belief in a God who an-

“IT should probably say also that I am
not averse to every kind of survival af-
ter death. But from the kind of future
life which mediums are now disclosing
to us, I devoutly wish to be preserved.”
Spiritism Degradation of Hopes and Ideals
When Dr. Leuba had expiained certain
phenomena attributed by Sir Oliver
Lodge to Spiritism, he summed up his
conclusions on the subject as follows:
“1, The evidential messages that re-
fer to things of this earth fail to carry
conviction because they are open to ex-
planation as clever guesses or luck, or as
fraud, or as telepathy.
2, The communications purporting to.
represent the nature of the other world
are not merely absolutely lacking in evi-
dential value, but they also clearly sug-
gest an earthly origin.
3.. One cannot reconcile the existence
of spirits able to communicate no end of
things and claiming to know much that
is going on on earth, with their inability
to do any of the many things that would
constitute an incontrovertible proof of
their existence.
4. Nothing in Sir Oliver is stranger
and more ill placed than the missionary
zeal with which he presses his faith
upon an incredulous world. Never was
a man less entitled to regard himself as
a public benefactor. Whether illusory
or not, and vague as it is, the Christian
faith in immortality is the expression of
some of the noblest yearnings of hu-
manity. But instead of being a demon.
stration of that faith, the picture present-
ed to us by contemporary spiritism is a
degradation: of the hopes and_ ideals
which in centuries past have given rise
to that belief. ¢
Sir Oliver Lodge speaks as if the sal-
vation of society depended upon the pos-
sibility of holding converse with those
we have lost. If humanity is at this mo-
ment threatened with appalling calami-
ties, it is neither because the living have
forgotten their dead nor because they
weep for them and yearn for c\ nmuni-
cation with them.
It is rather because men and women
live too exclusively for those who are
nearest them; it is because their vision
and devotion do not extend to the living
who are not of their flesh and blood,
The prophet for which humanity is
waiting is not he who would help us to
soothe our selfish sorrows by visits to
mediums and sittings at rapping tables
but who would turn our eyes and our
affection upon the multitudes of the liv-
ing for whom this earth has not yet been
made habitable.
FOURTEEN RECEIVE COMMUNITY
SINGING CERTIFICATES
Fourteen Community Singing certifi-
cates have been sent by Mr. Lawrence to
students who registered at least six of
his Community Singing Classes, and are
capable of conducting informal sings.
Those receiving the certificates are: 1920,
H. Ferris, L. Kellogg; 1921, E. Boswell,
C. Mottu; 1922, E. Hall, C. LaBoiteaux,
G. Rhoads, M. Tyler; 1923, M. Carey, E.

Te in chapel, ‘denied ‘that
mission. —
“No fixed number of points io or
required above fifteen,” said Miss Taft.
“But when it became evident that there
would be no room for all the students
who had passed the fifteen points, wq
decided it was fairer to.admit only the
students who seemed qualified to do
satisfactory work when in college.” Four
or five points of conditions put a stu-
dent under a disadvantage in doing col-
lege work, she added. Therefore stu-
dents having four or five points of con-
ditions in the spring were advised to pass
them off before the fall and then were
considered with candidates coming up in
the autumn.
CAMPIMETRY DISCUSSED BY
DR. FERREE AND DR. RAND
Dr. Ferree and Rr. Rand discussed,
with demonstrations, the subject of “The
Standardization of the Factors Influenc-
ing the Campimetric and Perimetric De-
terminations of Retinal Sensitivity” be-
fore the Ophthalmological Section of the
College of Physicians of Philadelphia,
on Thursday, February 19.
The work on this subject was begun
by Dr. Rand nine years ago in the Bryn
Mawr Laboratory and has been carried
on by her more or less continuously since
that time. The problem of the better
standardization of the clinic practice of
perimetry and campimetry 1s now being
considered bya special_committee—of
the American Ophthalmological Society,
of which committee Dr. Ferree has re-
cently been appointed a member.
No Advanced Standing for Seniors Except
for Itness in Junior Year
The only condition allowing seniors
to take advanced standing examinations
is a loss of hours in their junior year
due to illness, according to a recent de-
cision of the Faculty.
The rule allowing students to take ad-
vanced standing examinations only up to
the beginning of their junior year is a
wise one, the Faculty decided at a Jan-
uary meeting—and ought not to be set
aside except in the case of students who
have been ill in the junior year and have
lost time through no fault of their own.
First Lecture for the Malds in Taylor Hall
A lecture for the maids was held in
Taylor Hall on February 13, by Miss

day issues that confront the negro race

Plans for a point system limiting the
number of positions that may be held by
one student are being drawn up by the
Undergraduate Board.
The proposed plan will be dieiniid
with association and club officers and at
class meetings before being submitted
to the Undergraduate Association as a

Of the colleges which have replied to
letters written them on this subject, all
have tried the system, or are seriously
discussing it. Where it has been tried
out, all the colleges have found it entire-

HOOVER INDORSES $2,000,000 DRIVE;
PAYS TRIBUTE TO BRYN MAWR
Herbert Hoover, writing to Acting-
President Taft, declares that the average
salary paid to the professors and teachers
at Bryn Mawr is even below the stand-
ard of other institutions.
“The fine service of Bryn Mawr Col-
lege over all these years, the fine charac-
ter of the woman that has come from it,
only emphasizes the duty the community
owes,” says Mr. Hoover. “I know of
nothing that our people should so gen-
erally resent as the fact that our sons
and daughters are to receive the basic
formation of their characters and intelli-
gence at so great a sacrifice as is now
being imposed on those upon whom we
must depend to create our whole nation-
al character.”
MAY DAY OFFICE IN CARTREF
Mrs. Skinner, director, and Mrs. Rhys
Carpenter (E. Hill, '16), secretary and

a card catalogue of the parts taken by
each student in May Day.

“No ulterior motives may be admitted
in writing nonsense verse,” said Dr.
Savage. “Pure nonsense is written for
nonsense’ sake alone.
“Surely only ‘toves’ can ‘gyre’” declar-
ed Dr. Savage, quoting from ‘Jabber-
wocky’ to prove -that all manufactured
nonsense words should sound plausible —
and should convey an idea. ‘Uffia,’ from
the Nonsense Anthology was read to
illustrate the point:
“When sporgles spanned the floreate
mead
And cogwogs gleet upon the lea
Uftia gropped to meet her love
Who smeeged upon the equat sea.”
MARCH 15 LAST DAY TO APPLY FOR
UNDERGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIPS.

arships should be handed in to the secre-
tary and registrar before March 15, on
two forms obtained from the secretary
and registrar’s office. The awards will
be announced the first of May.
Two Sophomore scholarships, four
Junior, three Senior, one Junior or Sen-
ior and four special scholarships are of-
fered this year. The Undergraduates
Scholarships Committee also tries to
secure special scholarships in the case
of students needing financial aid. Last
May one special Senior, and seven spec-
ial Junior scholarships were awarded.
Descriptions of the scholarships and
the conditions for holding them may be
found in the calendar, pages 207 to 211.
History Club Takes in 10 New Members

with the same grades are required.
RADNOR LEADS CAMPUS IN PROMPT:
NESS ON PAYDAY
With only one pay-day bill over-due
this year Radnor holds the record among
the halls for prompt payment.
“The same people are always fined for
over-due bills,” declared one pay-day col-
lector to a News reporter. In Rockefeller
and Pembroke West as many as four
fines a month have been collected, vary-
ing in amount from three cents to forty
cents.
PUBLICITY COMMITTEE MAKES
PLANS FOR SEMESTER
With a new personnel, the Publicity
Committee plans to feature each C. A.
committee in turn by means of posters.
It aims to bring the activities of the As-
sociation before the college as a whole,
C. Robinson, ’20, and D. Wyckoff, ’21,
have been elected to the committee in
place of D. Rogers, ’20, and M. Morrison,
21, who have resigned. P. Smith, ’22,
has been appointed chairman.
VASSAR STUDENTS SNOW-BOUND
Heavy snow-ifalls recently made it im-
possible for Vassar students to leave
their halls, and for one entire day no
classes could be held.
Dr. Gilkey, who led Bryn Mawr’s week
end conference, had expected to lead the
evening service for the college, but spoke
to the isolated students of the hall in
which he is staying, since it was found
impossible to assemble a congregation.

In commemoration of the centennial
anniversary of Susan B, Anthony and
- the seventy-third birthday of Anan How-
ard) Shaw, both celebrated February
14th, the News prints the following ap-
preciation by President Thomas. The
article was written at the request of the
committee in charge of the memorial
service held by the National Women
Suffrage Association at St. Louis that
Saturday. “In view of the memorial |
chair, the students and alumnae are en-
dowing in memory of Anna Howard
Shaw,” writes President Thomas, “I
thought that the readers of the news
might be interested in this brief charac-
terization of Miss Shaw.”
* The two great women whose birthdays
are commemorated today were alike in
their trenchant leadership, their splen-
did intellectual equipment, and their ut-
ter devotion to our cause,
Susan B, Anthony seemed to me dis-
tinguished from all the other men. and
women I have known by the quality of
sheer, unadulterated greatness which
made of her a heaven sent leader to be
followed even to death itself.
Anna Howard Shaw had all the qual-
ities that go to make up what we call
genius—brilliant wit, humour of a pe-
culiarly high order; imagination; sym-
pathy; unerring logic which sped like an
arrow to its goal; withering scorn of
subterfuge; flaming indignation against
oppression and wrong; burning love of
justice and right; a prophet’s vision; im-
passioned patriotism, spiritual fervour
of consuming power. Her splendid elo-
quence inspired her audiences with
something of her own passion as she
went up and down through the land. She
was the greatest orator of our genera-
tion. She never fell below the high level
she had set herself. Often as I heard
her speak, I never once heard her speak
unworthily. She never said what her
audiences might like to hear. She told
them the exact truth. She was an ab-
solutely and as gloriously sincere on the
platform as in quiet discussion around
the study fire. She combined in wonder-
ful fashion the genius of a great orator
APPARATUS MEETS CONTAIN
REQUIRED AND ORIGINAL STUNTS
The apparatus meets will begin on
Wednesday, March 10, and last through
Friday, March 19, each team having two
meets. A certain number of required
‘and optional exercises for group and
individual work on the horse and paral-
‘with the wisdom of a great statesman,
for she and Miss Anthony were states-
lel bars, will be offered by each team.
Individual exercises only will be required |
on the ropes.
Each class is allowed four entries in |
the individual events, the points of which |
count toward both the total class score |
and the score of the individual. An in-|
dividual’s work in a group exercise will
not be counted toward her own score,
but the exercise will be judged as a
whole.
Five teams from each class will com-
pete and count points towards the All- |
Round Athletic Championship. The
size of the teams is flexible, the only
limitation being that if any person is in)
an event on one team, she cannot sub-
stitute down to a lower.
Start Fiction Library for Maids
“A circulating fiction library for the
maids has been started in the basement
of Merion Hall,” said H. Hill, ’21, chair-
man of the Library Committee, report-
ing in the C. A. Cabinet meeting last
Thursday night. About seventy-five
books, bearing on all subjects, have been
collected from the old Fiction Library
and from the students. The committee
hopes to receive contributions sufficient
to buy the works of colored authors and
thus put the maids in touch with the
current thought and progress of their
own people.
men in the truest sense of the word. I
never ceased to marvel at her power to
think out difficult subjects to their in-
evitable end. Her conclusions seemed
to me unerringly right. Her patriotism
rang true at every point. The world war
was the supreme test. She led us as we
should go. We followed her rejoicing
that our great suffragist was also a
great patriot. |
The last time I heard her was after
our May Pole dances at Bryn Mawr Col-
lege in a crowded chapel. She spoke
with the tongue of an angel and we saw
her transfigured before our eyes. It
crossed my mind then with vague fore-
boding that after a speech like that,
which could never be surpassed and per-
haps never again equalled, even an ora-
tor such as she might be content to die.
Within two months she was dead. Act-
ing on the suggestion of one of the col-
lege professors who had heard her speak
in chapel, a few weeks after her death
our professors, students and alumnae
began to raise $100,000 in order to endow
in perpetuity the Anna Howard Shaw
Memorial chair of Politics in Bryn
Mawr College. I can think of no great-
er memorial, nor of one that would have
pleased her more, than an endowment
such as this to teach women how to use
the vote she gave her life to win.
Ex-President Taft told me on his re-
turn from the speaking trip on behalf
of the League of Nations which cost
her life, that her presence as a speaker
on their platform in every city visited
brought to their audiences vast numbers
of women whom for the first time
through her they had been able to reach.
He said that he had been amazed to see
how women followed her and loved her.
We who know what she did for women
could never be amazed by any tribute,
however great. She was dearly loved
by us all in every State of the United
States—our golden orator, our gallant
defender, our intrepid advocate, our
guide, our leader, our friend, who spent
her life in our service. She never knew
how much we loved her.

voneaaian PEOPLE MAKE
_ SWIMMING CLASSES
The swimming report made by K.
Woodward, ’21, swimming manager, at
a meeting of the Athletic Association,
showed that 217 people had tried out
during the first semester. Of these, 49
made classes—8 Seniors, 16 Juniors, 12
Sophomores and 13 Freshmen.
E. H. Mills, ’21, and E. Anderson, ’22,
are first class swimmers. E. Cecil made
second class, eight made third, twenty-
seven, fourth, and eleven fifth.
Swimming records at Bryn Mawr have
been steadily improving during the last
twenty years. In 1898 when the first
swimming meet was held, the double
length front was swum in 45 sec. and
the back in 60 sec., as against 31 2-5 sec:
and 37 sec. today.
In 1906 Carola Woerishoffer, who
was considered an unusual swimmer,
made the single length back swim ir
25 sec. Today the record established by
K, Woodward, '21, is 16 1-5 sec. The
plunge and the have improved
also.
relay
The relay in 1912 was made in-
79 2-5 sec., and today it is done in 62 1-5
sec. In 1909, the longest plunge was
47 feet, while now fourth place is 47 feet
10 inches.
In a recent swimming at Barnard, the
first place in the plunge was 34.5 feet,
and third place was 28.5 feet, as compar-
ed with 57 feet 1 inch and 50 feet, which
were plunged in the Bryn Mawr meet.
Mahr, of Columbia, recently plunged
69 feet, and Driscoll, of Princeton, 62

The reeent canvas of the college for
‘community center workers has raised
_ the number of helpers to twice what it
has ever been before. a
At present eighty, including twenty-
nine new ones, are working regularly at
the center. Nine more are needed for
play hour and four more for gymnasium
work.
Under the plan, of work adopted this
semester, there are two people for every
“one-man-job” and three people for every
“two-man-job.” “At least one of the ex-
perienced students will always be avail-
able, and so this plan will do away with
the necessity of pushing new helpers
into familiar work,” said H. Kingsbury,
20, chairman of the social service com-
mittee.
“Some very commendable work was
done at the center last semester,” she
continued, “The little girls’ dramatics
club gave a fairy play, The North Wind,
on Saturday, February 21. .They have
been working on the play under the di-
rection of K. Goldsmith, ’22, whose
originality and care account for much of
‘its success. The attendents at the story
hour directed by M. Wiesman, ’21, has
grown from six to twelve, U. Batch-
elder, G. Melten, and B. Williams, from
'22, have the distinction of being the only
people successful at Garrett Hill, where
they teach dancing, supplying their own
music on alternate Fridays.”
One big achievement of the canvas
was a list of definite substitutes.
MERIT INSURANCE COMPANY PAYS
63 CENTS PER EXAMINATION
Losing 53 examinations out of the 202
it insured, the Campus Merit Insurance
Comparfy wound up its business last pay-
day. Each person failing to get merit
in an insured subject received 63 cents.
L.. Sloan, President, said that this was
the worst year in the history of the com-
pany. In 1918 with a proportionate sub-
scription list of $1.08 was paid per ex-
amination, nearly double the amount paid
this year.
“SCRAPS AND SCRIBBLES” TITLE OF
MODEL SCHOOL PAPER
“Scraps and Scribbles” has _ been
chosen for the name of the paper issued
by the students of the Model School, ac-
cording to the second number, issued
February 16.
Among the longer articles are “Ex-
tracts From the Diary of An_ Earth-
worm” and “A Model Dog.” Good ath-
letic spirit is shown in a “letter to the
editor” on the prospects of a gymna-
sium meet, and there is also a clever
parody on “Old Father William,” the
first verse of which is:
“You are old, 1920,” Miss Applebee said,
“And it really is silly to think,
That you like to make baskets and stand
on your heads
Till your faces are purple and pink.”

Exhibits Medals
After dining with the History Club,
Major Bles exhibited his German med-
als and trophies, including a six-inch
sword. “I had the officer’s swords cut
off when I was administrator of Col-
ogne,” he explained, “because I knew
nothing would humiliate them more.”
Talking of Lord Dunsany, Major Bles
said, “He is quite mad. His name ought
to be Lord Insany, or Lord Dunce, with-
out the -any.”

Name-Plates Revived
Name plates are to be placed by the
Trophy Club in the windows of rooms
occupied by 1919, bearing the name and
date of last year’s occupant. This cus-
tom has been neglected for several years
and the Club decided to revive it.
At the same meeting they voted to
clean out and rearrange the trophy cases
in Pembroke East.
DES MOINES SPEAKER WILL HOLD
CHAPEL SERVICE
“One of the most universally admired
addresses at the Des Moines Confer-
ence” is the report that Bryn Mawr dele-
gates give of Dr. Brown’s talk on “Chris-
tianizing National and International
Life”. Dr. Brown, who is Dean of the
Yale School of Divinity, will deliver this
address next Sunday evening in Chapel.
For the last four years, Dean Brown,
who is the author of “The Modern Man’s
Religion,” “The Quest of Life,” and “The
Strange Ways of God,” has been a regu-
lar speaker at the Sunday evening serv-
ices,
SUPERWOMEN A FACT
Freshmen Graded by Tests Similar to Army
Intelligence Examinations
Five per cent of the enlisted men grad-
ed at Camp Upton during the war were
of “superior mental ability”—according
to statistics obtained from Major Adams,
of Camp Upton, who visited Bryn Mawr
two weeks ago. Over fifty per cent of
the Freshman class are of the same men-
tal calibre—to judge from the results of
the intelligence tests given them by the
department of education last semester.
The tests applied to the Freshmen
were on the order of the intelligence ex-
aminations used in the army, and were
graded by the same standards. Twenty-
one per cent, of the class received A
for “very superior ability;” 25 per cent
A for “superior ability.” The three low-
er marks classified them according to
B, “average to superior ability;” C, “ave-
rage to fair ability;” and D, “fair to in-
ferior ability.”
The individual marks will not be made
known, but can be used in the Dean’s
office in judging whether or not a stu-
dent will have difficulty in keeping her
work up to the college requirements.
Philadelphia Men’s Committee to Work for
Endowment
Election of a men’s committee to work
for the Bryn Mawr Endowment in Phila-
delphia was held on February 13 at the
Philadelphia College Club, with the fol-
lowing results:
William F. Ellis, chairman; Robert E.
Strawbridge, Charlton Yarnall, Horatio
G. Lloyd, W. Hinkle Smith, Robert L.
Montgomery, W. Plunkett Stewart and
Charles J. Rhoads.
C. A. CABINET INVITED TO MEET
DR. G. IDDINGS BELL
Miss Henrietta B. Ely, of Bryn Mawr,
has extended invitations to the C. A.
Cabinet to meet Dr. G. Iddings Bell,
who is president of St. Stephen's Col-
lege, Avondale-on-the-Hudson.
The Atlantic Monthly last year pub-
lished two of Dr. Bell's articles on his
work in France as a Chaplain with the
American Expeditionary Force.
Dr. Bell will speak in Chapel next
Tuesday morning. He will also conduct
the noon-day services at the Garrick
Theatre, in Philadelphia, for the week
of March 1-6.
Service was the definition of a success-—
ful life reached by the class discussion
groups, which met last. Sunday in the -
Hall sitting rooms to take the place of
the usual Vespers service. _ ae
Dean Smith, leader of the Senior-Ju-
nior group, considered a successful life
under two heads, physical and mental.
A life not. well rounded in both respects
cannot be “socially adequate,” was the
general opinion of the group. Next Sun-
day Dean Smith will consider the spir-
itual motive necessary to live a success-
ful life of service.
If one “loved the Lord thy God with
all thy heart, with all thy soul, with all
thy mind, and with all thy strength,” one
would lead a life successful from the
Christian point of view, Miss Barrett,
head of the Community Centre, pointed
out to the Sophomores. In the next
meeting, the group will consider “and
love thy neighbor as thyself.”
Success to the Freshmen, led by E.
Biddle, '19, meant “being sure of God
and able to help others.”

their program for the exemption of all
graduate stuc from chaperone rules,
at the monthly meeting of the Self Gov-
ernment Association. held on February
a7. oe,
E. Dulles, '17, who seconded R. Wood-
ruff's motion that graduate students be
exempt from all chaperone rules, pointed
out that only fourteen graduates are
under chaperone rules and that these
fourteen are often given permission to
go unchaperoned. “Moreover,” she con-
tinued, “graduates have finished their pre-
liminary work and are considered eligible
for responsible positions. We must as-
sume for them a certain degree of ma-
turity.”
Opposed to the motion, M. Buchanan,
President of the Graduate Club, said
that in her opinion it was better not to
remove restrictions, but bringing the pre-
sent rules up to date, to keep them so
that they would serve as protection to
students coming from colleges in small
towns. She would collect and amend
existing regulations so that graduates
would be exempt in the following cases:
those over twenty five, those who have
had one year of teaching or of graduate
work, any who were detailed by pro-
fessors, groups of two or three when one
was exempt, and those to whom special
permission was given by the Executive
Board.
President Taft, in accordance with
President Thomas’ custom, called a
special meeting of the Graduate Club to
discuss Self Government. She stressed

THIRTEEN BRYN MAWR STUDENTS
PLAN YEAR AT OXFORD
Through the influence of Miss Czap-
licka, University lecturer at Oxford,
who was at Bryn Mawr two weeks ago,
and Miss Donnelly, who studied at Ox-
ford, thirteen Bryn Mawr students hope
to be admitted to Oxford or Cambridge
for a year of graduate work in 1921-22.
From 1920,.D. Clark, M. Dent, L. Kel-
logg, E. Leutkemeyer, L. Sloan and K.
Townsend, and from 1921, F. Billstein,
E. Cope, K. Cowen, H. Hill, K. John-
ston, S. Marbury, J. Flexner and K.
Ward are considering the plan.
Miss Czaplicka has advised the Bryn
Mawr students to split up between the
three Oxford Colleges, St. Hilda’s, Lady
Margaret’s and Somerville.

New requirements for the degree of
Master of Arts were approved by the
Academic Council on February 10.
“This degree is open to college gradu-
ates who shall have satisfied the Gradu-
ate Committee that their course of study
has been equivalent to that for which
the degree of Bachelor of Arts is given
at Bryn Mawr College, or that it has
been adequately supplemented by subse-
quent study.
The candidate must attend at
Mawr College three seminaries, or their
equivalent, in graduate courses, unless by
permission of the Graduate Committee
she is allowed to substitute post-major
(third fourth year undergraduate)
courses for one of the seminaries. Pre-
liminary training equivalent to the Bryn
Mawr College undergraduate major
courses in the subject of the seminary,
or in related subjects of equal value in
preparation, is required for admission
to a seminary. Each seminary requires
one-third of the student's time for one
year. The minimum time in which the
work can be completed is therefore one
year, but the work cannot be done in one
year unless the candidate is thoroughly
prepared in all the subjects she offers,
and gives her entire time to graduate
study.
The candidate is required to pass with
a creditable grade written examinations
on the seminaries or courses offered,
such examinations to be held in the first
week of the May examination period.
The examination books, together with
the examiner's estimate, shall be sent
to the Graduate Committee, which shall
report to the Academic Council.
The degree shall not be given to any-
one who cannot read French and German
or who is unacquainted with Latin. The
Graduate Committee will provide writ-
ten examinations in French and German
twice each year, namely, once during
the week before Thanksgiving and once
during the week before spring vacation.
Students who have already passed the
Bryn
or
general language examinations of the
College in these languages may be ex-
cused from this requirement.
The prospective candidate must reg-
ister with the Graduate Committee dur-
ing October of the academic year in
which she intends to take her degree,
and her statement shall contain the ap-
proval of her courses by her instruc-
tors.”
