AIM TO BREAK RECORD IN SALE

the relief of tuberculosis patients, thou-

cording to the American Red Cross.

DAIRY FARMING PART OF WORK
OF CHINESE MISSIONARY
Alice Ropes Kellogg, ’06, at Shaowu
Modern dairy farming is\ part of ‘the
work of Alice Ropes, 06 (Mrs. Edwin
Kellogg), of the Shaowu Mission, an
agricultural experiment station in China,
according to a letter received by O. How-
ard, ’22, World Citizenship Committee.
“Dr. Bliss, a physician working under
the American Board, has used original
methods for inoculating cows for rhin-
derpest, one of the great scourges of the
neighborhood,” writes Mrs. Kellogg. “This
winter he has been able to lower the price
of milk, thus relieving great want. Doctor
Bliss has taught an educated Chinese to do
this inoculating work in order to spread
the discovery among the natives,” she con-
cludes.
DELEGATE REPORTS ON STUDENT
GOVERNMENT CONFERENCE
May Not Go to Concerts Unchaperoned
“Bryn Mawr is the only one of the|
eighty colleges east of the Mississippi| —
represented at the Conference that does
not have faculty members on its stu-
dent organization boards,” said K. Gard-
ner, 22, in her report to the Self-Gov-
ernment Association, on Tuesday, De-
cember 7th, on the Student Government
Conference at Elmira, New York, to
which she and M. Foot, ’21, were dele-
gates.
Other colleges have one student or-
ganization with a larger board than our
boards, instead of the four organizations
at Bryn Mawr. Vassar, Smith, Swarth-
more, Goucher and other colleges have
the honor system for examinations, and
considered it works, although they ad-
mitted some cheating, averaging one stu-
dent a year. Reporting on each other
seemed essential to a successful honor
system. Many colleges had a 10 o'clock
light rule, and some required the students
to be on campus by 7.30. Chaperon rules
of other colleges were stricter on the whole,
especially on Sunday, according to Miss
Gardiner.
Students may go to concerts at the
Academy of Music without sitting with
their chaperons, according to a _ rule
passed by the meeting, but a motion for
going unchaperoned was defeated.
Miss Goggin stressed reporting the
violation of rules involving a fine, and
-|}announced that head proctors are to act
as proctors in the Library. “Any loss
in the halls of residence should be re-
ported, with the hour it was missed, to
Miss Adair, the business manager,” said
Miss Goggin.
Two informal, spoken reprimands
were given for motoring after dark with
men unchaperoned. A formal, written
reprimand was given to a student for
breaking chaperon rules.
