LADY ASTOR SPEAKS TO LARGE
AUDIENCE. AT MUSIC ACADEMY:
Lord and Lady Astor Both Give Short
Speech-on. National Service .
“As Philadelphia was founded on broth-
erly love,” Lady Astor said that she felt
that she could speak freely to the Philadel-
phian audience ‘which -she addressed on
Monday, under the auspices of the National
Women’s Trade Union League,
The for Christianity and
animity was the slogan of her speech,
she said, “you can’t make people econom-
ically mdependent and you can’t force com-
munity spirit.” Lady Astor’ spoke as the
representative of the working men and

for
. women of Great .Britain, and* she consid-
ered her warm welcome in _America the
recognition that she ‘‘was fighting for the
The League of Nations, ar rather
of Peace, was the first goal to be won,
Lady Astor felt, though she said she knew
that it was unpépular i in Philadelphia ‘“ex-
cept with the men who had fought,
women who had suffered, and all living,
liye -peaple.” —‘‘For,” she ‘said,. ‘War_ will
never end war. The _ Bolshevists are
against war, but they’ve shown us they
can’t push the nation far, the reactionaries
say the world will always be the same, but
they really mean they'll bé; nothing changes
them but death, and sometimes it seems as
though death wouldn't.”
“The relation between capital and labor
is one of the great problems the war leaves!
‘ with us, the future world depends on their
working together and this is the trend of
unionism. Trade unionism stands for
common sense and unanimity. It is every
woman’s duty to. see that all. working
women have a chance “—— possible condi-
tions, under conditions We would like our
children to have. I should rather my child
would have a chance in industry than loaf
outside of it.”
“T sound,” Lady, Astor acknowledged,
“like a socialist, but I am no such hum-
‘bug. They preach love to the Hungarian
miners and rob their brother. The ideals

get them through by legislation.” :
“The trouble with people is not that
they’re wicked, but apathetic. If you want
a better country you’ve got to work for
it; men are simply jwhat we women make
them, and every woman ought. to be
ashamed of it.” ,
“IT am not a propagandist,” Lady Astor
said, “the thing is bigger than a people or
a country. No matter what your religion
is, put that and sense and unanimity to-
gether and save what little civilization
we've got left!”

Feasible Freedom
We have talked ‘a great deal thie: yeat
about freedom, of speech. The Liberal
Club--took.up.the affair of Clark and sent
a letter to the president of. the, Liberal
Club there endorsing his stand on academic
freedom. But during the discussion of this
letter someone aptty asked: “What about
freedom of speech at Bryn Mawr?”
That’s it. What about it? It does not
exist, of course, though this year nothing
has occurred to bring our lack of it into
notice.

“the authorities, and that on several occa-
tions in recent years speakers have been
excluded on grounds of radicalism. ~
‘It was pointed out in the Liberal Club
meeting that some kind of authority is
indispensable in- the selection of speakers,
if only for the purpose of arranging dates
There is a simple, practical and theoret-
ically sgund plan which provides for that
necessity. The Undergraduate Association
is planning a Student Schedule Committee,
composed of all the club presidents and
committee chairmen who are responsible,
for inviting speakers to Bryn Mawr. The
business of the Committee is to “regulate
the, outside speakers of their various or-
ganizations in order. to prevent overcrowd-
ing of the schedule. These _ students, as
responsible” officers~of College organiza:
tions, would be perfectly qualified to
The only admittable
grounds for excluding a speaker is the
danger of notoriety to the College, though
in theory there should exist no restriction
at all. Since these officers are of neces-
sity, those who have the best interests of
~ the. College at heart, it would be perfectly
“safe,” from the point of view of “the
_ authorities, ‘to éntrust this matter to their
” judgment. On the other hand, this. plam
would free the clubs from all supervision
by the office, and would put under com-
plete “student control thgpphase of their
education, which they alone direct.

“We feel that the principle which you

FAMOUS PORTRAIT PAINTER GIVES
LECTURE ON COLOR
Cecilia Beaux Says Balance Warm and
Cold Tones Whole Story of Color
,Gutzon, Borglum, the American ‘sculp-
tor, wrote of. Cecelia Beaux, who speke
‘on Saturgay. night under the auspices
of the Art Club, that she was after Sar-
gent the best living portrait painter. Her
i war portraits are the most famous of
her works and for ‘them she has‘recently
_ been decorated by the French govern-
:ment. One of her pictures, a portrait
of Miss Reilly, former dean of Bryn.
Mawr, is in the College library.
Color was the subject of Miss Beaux’s
“Though not myself a colorist,”
she said, “I am always intensely ¢onscious
of color.” Miss Beaux feean with a his-
tory “of color, showing how it was inter-
“woven with life from the-animals’ instinc-
tive color adaptability to ‘man’s insatiate
longing for it: Miss Beaux seemed to feel

in work in tis medium. “Our, blood is
mixed” she said “our instinet atrophied
and the force of natural creation lost.”
“Our interest ,in a prism is purely
aesthetic, sectored light and nothing else
leaves us cold, diamonds come nearer

terial has something to do with our

turies has done wonders. Oriental .com-
binations, are exactly right for they seem

address.’
q
Miss Beaux went on to speak of the
first exhibition of independents that took
place ain ‘New, York some three years
ago, where she had at once felt that
something was. intrinsically wrong and
lack of homogeneity between the work
and the material, a homogeneity which
she felt was most perfectly expressed in
a Puebld rug she owns, woven in gray,
perfect art.” :
In what she kerinee a slight digression,
Miss Beaux told of an interview between
herself and Gertrude Stein. Miss Stein
came to her as she was Standing before
one of the pictures, which, Miss Beaux
said, looked like nothing but‘a map with
odd splashes of color stuck about. To
Miss Stein’s question as to how she liked
the, picture she answered that she under-
stood it was only a sort of translation
of an idea. “This is realism, a still life
group,” -Miss Stein retorted, and ‘she
realized there was nothing more to be
said.
Returning to her subject, Miss Beaux
took up color under glaze or varnish and
Kshowed how the strength of the .impres-
sion depended on the unification of the
surface, and how this was greatly re-
sponsible for one’s joy in antiques. Re-
touching ruins this unification of sur-
face and one. of -the tragedies of the
time_is the retouching of the Blue Boy's
face which has given him exactly the
appearance of being ‘ ‘made up.”
Intensity was the next aspect of color
Miss Beaux discussed. “It should vary”
she said “in relation to space; intensity
is for small objects, jewels, ¢namels and
so on.’

structure is important.

_ Miss ,Pflaum and Mrs. King Advise
Special Training for Best Jobs :
Miss Pflaum’and Mrs. Edith King, head
of the American Association of ‘Social
Workers, spoke on “Present-day Jobs for
Women,
the Vocational Conference lectures,
April 26. :
“A most .popular ibb, both gvith young
men -and young women, is. newspaper
work,” said Miss Pflaum, “The supply of
held
reporters is far greater than the demand. °
A’ newspaper job is an excellent foundation
for literary work, but keep away from ad-
vertising if you wish to write, for that is
merely salesmanship.”
“A business course is a great asset,”
Miss Pflaiim went on to say. ““Not only
for stenpgraphic jobs: but for good posi-
t tions such as research work in economics —
ar bank. positions.” She emphasi%ed the
danger of taking the first job offered, and
advised careful choosing, pointing out that
“Brrsiness contitions “are improving ae
-more jobs are. being opened ‘to women.’
‘Mrs. King stressed the importance of a
sound general education as a foundation
for social work. “Economics, biology, sta-
tistics, english and history are important
courses as well as sogiology. Ability, how-
ever, to get on well.with people and a pro-
fessional ...interest1n_social work. are the
most important of all qualifications.”
“Special training in a school for -social
workers is a great asset,” Mrs. King said.
“Tt will command a better job and a higher
salary. -The outlo@k for social workers is
good. There is a gregt demand: for visit-
ing” teachers, settlement’, workers, family
case workers and_ special workers. The
salaries run from $900 for beginners to
$3600 a year for executive positions. There
is a constantly increasing recognition of

IN THE NEW BOOK ROOM
The Book of Mormon, “an account
written by the hand of Mormon upon plates
taken from the Plates of Nephi,” is an
interesting addition to the New. Book shelf
this week. This is a famous but not very
familiar work which deserves perusal. The
introduction, in which Joseph Smith, Jr.,
gives an account of his vision and discov-
ery of the tablets is the source of the
Mormon story. é
self is in fifteen books, after the manner
of the Bible, and was first ysninee in
1830. k i
The History.-of* Hwman Siaiilie; by
Westermarck, treats exhaustively, from the
sociological point of view, the origin and
development of marriage as a human in-
stitution. The following is the definition
of marriage with which the book opens:
“Marriage. may be defined as a relation of
one or more men to one or more women
which is recognized by custom er law, and
which involves certain rights and duties
both in the case of the parties entering
the union and in the case of the children
born of it.”
“New Voices, by Marguerite Wilkinson,
is most valuable both as a collection and
interprétation of modern pottry. The new
singers, both English and American, are
studied—and commented upon in New
Voices, though. the book is primarily a
well-arranged collection of their works. ©

hate with a woman’s college in the his-
é of Amherst. The debate took place
at Amherst, where Vassar sent a delega-
tion of twenty-five. The judges rendered
a two to one decision in favor of the. visit-
ing team, which was upholding the affirma- |
tive of the question, “Resolved, that it is in
accord with the public interest to abridge
the right to strike and the right to lockout
“by requiring industrial-disputes tobe settled
by compulsory tribunals.”
Vassar has instituted amafgamation meet-
ings of their Associations, in which the busi-
ness of the Students’ Athletic, Political,
Christian and Philaletheis Association is |_
transacted in one evening.

Honor of Delegate .
Many colleges were represented at the
sixth annual:meeting of The Eastern So-

“Physical Education for Wemen, ‘held at
Bryn Mawr, on April 27th and 28th.
Discuvstons on efficiency tests and inger-
collegiate athletics were. held. It was de--
cided that. the requirements. in swimming
all women’s colleges should include ‘a
straight dive, forty-yard swim, half of
which distance must be done on a breast
stroke, side stroke or crawl, and the ability
to float.
The delegates were entertained at din?
ner on Friday by Dean Smith and Mrs.
Arlitt. , Dean Smith spoke on physical
training at the: Summer School and Mrs
Arlitt on physical education in relation
to psychology. Swimming and appa-
ratus exhibitions, a water-polo game and
a hockey game were also held in honor
of the delegates.

~ BRITISH "EDUCATIONAL HEAD- ADDRESSES EMPLOYEES
Sixty-five Names Handed. In for Mr. Mansbridge’s Proposed Classes
(By Special Pe teil
Although the. Workers’ Educational
Association represented by Mr. Albert
‘Mansbridge, who visited Bryn Mawr last
week, began with only he-and his wife as
members and a fund of half a crown, which
she contributed after electing ,him secre-
tary,. it, now has hundreds of classes. over
the entire British Empire @nd has raised
the ‘standard of education over the wo/ld,
Mr. Mansbridge, the originator of this
great movement, is the son.of an English
carpenter, a self-educated man, who sup-
ports’ himself by a small business. For
twelve years he promoted..the work of
_ adult edu@ation in England and. then
»went to Australia in 1915 where he mét
with enormous success; since coming
back from Australia he has devoted him-
self to starting seaman’s classes and te
organizing a_world- wide association. It
‘is in the interests of such an association
‘that Mr. Mansbridge is now in America,
where he came particularly to give four
lectures under the Lowell lecture course
at Cambridge. Mr. Mansbridge is much
interested in women’s education and is
himself on the governing board of St.
Hilda’s College, a woman’s college at
Oxford. This interest in woman’s educa-
tion, especially of the lower classes,
brought Mr. Mansbridge to Bryn Mawr
which. has experimented in this line with
its Summer School of last year.
* The history of the association was told
by Mr. Mansbridge at an informal tea
at Dean Smith’s on Wednesday afternoon.
“The moral,” he said, “must come first
- so that there will be no danger of miss-
ing it; it is that the strength of the
movement is due to its high ideal—educa-
tion for the development of the indi-
vidual, because it is a law of human life.”
“The story is possible only because +a
chance combination of working men and
scholars recognized how advantageous
the union was to both and determined
to. make ita matter of organization
rather than chance. . The union is before
all else, non-political, non-sectarian arfd
absolutely democratic.”
Mr. Mansbridge illustrated the method
of organization by the story of one town,
Rochsdale. In Rochsdale-a branch was
opened and in a very little time 130
bodies were formed,*each with a repre-
sentative on ‘a council meeting in* one
centre. The Carter and Lorrymei’s
class was a representative one; the-aver-
age attendance was 120, they voted to
study the horse, and “the horses in
Rochsdale have had a good time ever
since.” Rochsdale soon availed itself of
the University Extension lectures and
took courses of six lectures in» Dante,
economics and the stars; and though
pledged to study only two or three years,
went on for four. Then Longton heard
and wanted classes too; here they went
on for seven years and’ thesjnterest in
all the neighboring villages was aroused
until, thirty-seven of* them ‘joined.
The power of thé classes, Mr. Mans-
bridge said, lies. in four things: “No
one joins who is in doubt'as to whether
he wants to ‘study or not, ‘the teacher
appears to’ vanish as soen as the lecture’
is. started, an equal time‘is spent in dis-
cussing.:and -in lecturing, there are no
rewards either in the shape of certificates
or otherwise.”
The subjects that are chosen by, the
working people were well shown in three
stories, Mr, Mansbridge told — of the
charwomen who wanted to study history,
the dock laborers who voted dor indus-
trial history and asked that their wives
might have a.class too, and the country
village which asked to learn shorthand.
The association is financed by grants
from the boafds of education and by stu-
dent fees, which are made so low that all
can afford to join, but what the associa-
tion wants“is“‘a kindly word, for it is
after all, spirit that matters!”
-In his speech in the evening, to the
town meeting of the employees of the
College, Mr. Mansbridge gave a more
vivid illustration yet of how such branches
are fogmed by establishing one at Bryn
Mawr, which some sixty-five of the
people present signed up to join.
Mr. Mansbridge began his address to
the meeting by saying that. it was the
most unique meeting he had ever seen.
He went on to impress the audience with
their own importance for “Anyone who
is doing a useful. thing with as much
skill as he can, can stand with: the great-
est-in the earth. People that are help-
ing other people get education are apt
to get the idea that education is not for
them,: but they should think, ‘everything |
here is education and I’ll have*as much
as I can,’ for everyone in their own heart
deserves and needs education, though
they do not need to be scholars.”
“Are—you getting the—best—things?
Mr, Mansbridge -asked, “We all have
heads and it is up to us to make the
best use of what is inside of them
Above all things, don’t think you're
clever; you haven’t got to be clever or
to know a lot, but to determine to make
the best of what ‘you’ve got, to go arid
get the best and to keep alive!”
The audience’s response to Mr, Mans-
bridge- was immediate: and enthusiastic
as their enrollment in the new organiza-
tion showed and he ended by wishing
them all suecess and happiness. Cards
are being sent out by the office to all
those who joined to see what specia]
branch of study they would like to take
up. Classes will probably be held in
accordance with this plan for employees
at wark during the summer and wider
operations will be organized in the fall
