MASEFIELD AND GIBSON LEAD.
SCHOOL OPPOSED TOF UTURIST

Miss Caroline ‘Spurgeon Disiasinn
‘Poets Working in Pre-War Period

_ Speaking on the pre- “war poets in chapel,
last ° Fyiday morning ‘at ten o’clock, . Miss
Caroline Spurgeon divided ' those writing
between. 1900 and 1914 into two distinct
Broups. First, the Futurists or ‘—Imagists;

7S RSCONAIY, “those tioved” by Sympathy
for the: poor cPasses. Miss Spurgeon is
a Professor oft English Literature ‘at the

» University of London and Exchange. Pro-

fessor this winter at Columbia Univer-
sity and Barnard College.
: “The Futurist creed,” said, Miss Spurgeon,
16 a striving for effect. They glorify war
in much the same way as did.'the Prus-
sians, and regarded it notxas’ a possibility,
but a necessity.” In speaking of the Fututist
~ painting, which, she said, grew from the}
same desite for effect, Miss ‘Spurgeon
said, “A Futurist aims not for the itiage
itself, but for a plastic image *of an

" semotion.” : “

«

New School Opposes !tmagists

In opposition to_the Futurists and Imag-
ists there grew up in ‘France, Belgium and
. England a group of poets with an intense
sympathy for the working people. “It was
the first poetic expression of a movement
affecting the entire Western world,” said
Miss, Spurgeon, “and its leading spirits
were Wilfred Wilson “Gibson, Masefield,
Whitman, and a group of poets in France
calling themselves Whitmanists. Masefield’s
work, Miss Spurgeon went on to. explain)’
was the outcome .of both types, He’ had

} | New Attitude to God APRS sat..

“The attitude of these new poets toward
x0d_or the > Supreme Power is indicative of
the -change int in thotght,”"said—Miss—Spur- |
geon. She went on to say that the anthropo-
alata a or personal God has gone, proving
it by showing that either an entirely new
type of Deity has been ‘substituted or the
anthropomorphic 'God has been .intensified
to such.an extent/as to become purely sym-
bolical. In illustration Miss Spurgeon read
The Rebellious Vine, by Harold Monroe,

and the Last Judgment, by James Stephens. |’

In concluding Miss Spurgeon said: “A
new chapter in poetry has been opened
since theavar which containé much that is
moving and beautiful and is an embodi-

_ ; ment of the thought and spirit of the time.”

- Gives Reading at the Deanery

On Saturday afternoon Miss Spurgeon
gavé.a reading at the Deanery, at which

she read poems of. Maséfield, Walter de].

TORCH LIGHT PROCESSION: AT
HOOVER FUND’ MASS MEETING



Mrs. Kellogg Pleads ia Taicegastid

Pledging support to’ eleven hundred of
the starving children of central Europe, a
mass ‘meeting of the Main -Line 40 raise
money for Herbett. Hoover’s Fund, took
place in the: Gymnasium last W ednesday
night... Mrs. ‘Vernon ‘Kellogg,- the only
woman among~ 44-on Hoover’s Belgian
Relief Commission in 1914-15, was the main)
speaker of the evening, and drew vividly
the hopeless.condition of the helpless people
of Europe, among whom she has worked.
Schools in Bryn Mawr pledged $3000. The

College Service. Corps gave $3000 that. re-
mained in the treagury.

“They are still standing there, miles dnd
miles of them, in lines, with tin cups,” said
Mrs. Kellogg, describing the children at
the Hoover kitchens, who™ receive there
food enough, in addition to.their slim ra-
tions, to keep them alive. She spoke of-the
futility of all. questions considering” the
political and economic results of the war if
these children perish. ‘You don’t need to
worry ‘about the League of Nations-or the
‘attitude of these’central European countries
toward America,” said Mrs. Kellogg, “as
long as they continue to feel their present
gratitude for American relief. The work
is not pure charity, for they have struggled
every year since 1914 to raise a crop, and
every year have ‘seen it ruined by invading

W ith the slogan “America forthe Amer-

M. . Willcox; ’22, broad the decision» in
favor -of Japanese exclusion, in the debate
held last Friday evening in Merion sitting |’
room. The team for. the affirmative, P.-
Ostroff, . “2h: S.—-Washburny—21,—and—M..

the Japanese’ be admitted to the United
States on the same basis as other aliens.”
The judges were Dr. DeLaguna, Miss Dan,
graduate student, and, M. Adams, ’23.
. Dr, DeLaguna, annouticing~ the ‘decision’
.of the judges, complimented both sides on
the strength of their logic afd the im-

DEFENDED BY AUTHOR-CRITIC

“France Unupual 3 in Producing War
Writing,” Says Abbe Dimnet — -

. “That, war produces anything in liter-
ature .is generally an’ illusion,” said. Abbé
Ernest Dimnet, spe&king in his own Jan-
guage on “Modern French Literature,”
Taylor Hall; last Saturday night,
the-auspices-of=the—French-Club..“Never-
theless, the literary, tendency in France was~
so great in.,1914 that, despite calls on
physical “ehergy, a literature of no small
importance’ was produced,” °

“Gaspard,” by. Betfganin, isa book w hose
inspiration was the valiant and gay char-.
acter, of the French’ soldier. An example
ofan opposite tendency is “Le Feu,” hy
Barbusse,. which stresses only what is hor-
rible ‘and hideous in war. “Lb Feu,”
Abbé. Dimnet,: “was condemned before-
hand, because in it the soldier never laughs
and very. seldom smiles. It is a_ sinister
conception of the war, and a book of. the
third order from a literary point of view. :
Influenced by Zola, -Barbusse tries to get
effects by throwing -a powder of words
into the eyes his ‘eader, and, as in
‘L'Enfer,’ to -make literature out of bald
immorality.”

Foch Writer of Notable Prose

~Xmong ‘those authors. whose war
tures hold ‘an underlying idea, Maréchal ~
Foch, according to Abbé Dimnet, has ‘the §
greatest ‘prose gift. The war, as ‘his busi-
ness, attracts and enchants hint While
{he writes its histor¥ -history-of the people: which: is carrying it
‘one Hits styte is~incomparable:

rC omposition, to the French, is clarifica-
tion,” Abbé Dimnet continued. “The French
trait of clearness, lost during the last cen-
tury, when the followers of Victor Hugo
retained” his” faults without his genius, is
reappearing with — striking “vigor “=Gue...
wilt = $s
of their ox” souls, and do not like to go
beyond it *eA great influence on this clear-
ness in thinking and writing were the prin-
ciples of the. “Action Frangaise,” a paper
edited by: Mauras, who felt that the resto-
ration of a monarchy and ‘free cities alone
would save France. With the eternal idea
of clearness in ‘mind, he. demanded that
facts be faced, pointing’ out that there is

said

of

out clear thinking. Although the political
hopes of the “Action Francaise” have never
‘approached realization, its influence has
been wide.

Internal Affairs Claim Attention

“Do not ask a dying man to meditate on
the affairs of the universe,” .Abbé Dimnet
pleaded. “Critics say that French literature
since the war has narrowed to nationalistic
interests, and has lost the universal appeal -
necessary in- great work. But France’s in-
terests must be nationaljstic: until this time
of disorder and insecurity are past. Then
will. her. literature take again: a_ wider
outlook,”

_ Abbé Dimnet was entertained at luncheon:
on Saturday. by Miss Thomas. Among the
guests were Miss Caroline Spurgeon, of
the. University of

tion, on Tuesday evening, January i ‘Th\. sleeve, . of Barnard, and E. Harris, presi-

of the white rate being swamped by the

tions continue, will be so numerous in Cali-

man; “It is a question,” said Miss Billstein,
“of whether or not wé are willing to resign

DR: LAKE STRESSES APPEAL TO
“FEELING IN CHRISTIANITY

7 meee oe

prdttém- “to Co-ordinate Feeling With
Systems of Thought.and Conduct ~°

Christianity’s appeal to feeling. was the |
problem discussed by:.Dr, Kirsopp Laké, of
Harvard, in his «sermon. ori Sunday
‘evening,

“We must all think out,” he saidy one -



*

to feeling’ in our churches without offending
| the sense of thpught by implying something
we do not think, and the sense. of conduct
by mubacribingito ritual in which we do. not

The iid to feeliel according to Dr.
Lake, is an essential part of Christianity,
The. stoics,” he said, “thought happiness
could be found by desiring nothing and’
‘fearing nothing. The real part Of wisdom,
it seems to me, is not to mutilate nature by
getting rid of desire and -f€ar, but to make
them the instruments of a better and finer
life.” 5

“Religion,” he defined, “is like a reservoir -
in life, of health, strength and energy. We
-draw on it partly by right code of, conduct,
‘partly by right code of thought, ‘and ‘also
by system of feeling. This is why the ”
Jewish form of religion did not conquer,
and the Greek or-Oriental form, with. its:
ritual, did. If you feel that you are a
failure and everyone else is unpleasant, you -
can lift the dark’ cloud. by something that
takes’ away obstacles, by appealing: to \
feeling.” ' :

DR. TENNENT TELLS SCIENCE

CLUB OF RESEARCH WORK
Some phases of modern research work
were discussed by Dr, Tennent, Profes-
sor of Biology, at the Science Club tea, on
Wednesday afternoon, January 12, in Pem-
; broke East sitting room.

Dr. ‘Tennent spoke of ‘the work of Dr.
Koford at the University, of, California, |
on the protozoan parasites in the digestigt
tract; liver and blood. He then” described
the recent progress, of research in certain
fields.» Micro-dissection, by a new .appa-
ratus, he said, permits the investigation
of. the individual cell whose play of action
has been unknown. Cytoplasmic inclusions
particularly are the subject of modern
work in the endeavor to determine proc-
esses of synthesis in the cell.

~The work done in tissue-culture was also
mentioned by Dr. Tennent, who, in this
copnection, spoke of. the contraction: ot
isolated involuntary muscle cells, such as
the cells of. the heart muscle.

further pointed out that the free associa-
tion of men: and ‘women would involve the

cation is bound to increase, for a growing
