Mr. George E. Vincent, president ‘of the

to Peking last month for the official open-
ing of the Peking Union Medical College.

SoutH MANCHURIAN RAILROAD,
September 1, 1921.

“It is 2100 miles from Yokohama to
Peking via thé’Korean route, a journey of
four days. . We have completed nearly
three-fourths of the distance. We are due

The trip has confirmed certain impres-
sions, and has made me revise others. The
Japanese scene was-as beautiful as ever, es-

pecially the glimpses of the inland sea, but |

the industrial towns are squalid, the ir-
, roads of Western dress incongruous “and
shabby, and the manners of the people far
from pleasant. Our train was crowded.

_ Traveling Not Unalloyed Delight

“Just as we reached the end of our
Japanese journey at Shimonoseki, I looked
into a second-class car. The seats which
run sofa-wise along the sides were crowded
and in the aisle were piled rice-boxes,
bottles, tea-pots, banana anforange skins,
waste paper, and other debris a foot deep.

tooth-picks, the universal sucking of’ teeth
at and after meals, to say nothing of throat-
clearing noises_and_ other unpleasant per-
formances, make traveling in the Empire

unalloyed delight.

“We had a smooth crossing to Korea’ and
gazed again with incredulity at the pre-
posterous, nigger-minstrel, fly-trap, top-hats.

“clined to feel that a people who can make
themselves look so absolutely absurd: de-
serve to be oppressed. The contrast be-
tween the Japanese and the Koreans ‘strikes
the traveler vividly as he passes quickly
from the Islands to the Peninsula. All day
yesterday we looked out.on a really beau-
tiful landscape disfigured. by squalid
thatched mud huts and infested by a
wretched and ridiculous population. To-
day Manchuria strikes one as rich and
prosperous in comparison with the country
south of the Yalc.

managing things better. The head men are
fairly liberal and are trying to.give a wiser
administration. The trouble is with. the
underlings, who are bureaucratic, unsym-

regulations about schools, the use of the
Japanese language, and the exclusion of
religious teaching have been repealed or

ALL PHILADELPHIA OVERRIDES
VARSITY AFTER § STIFF FIGHT

Picked Players of 1920 Take Measure
of Bryn Mawr

Splendid teamwork and orgarrization
enabled 1920 All-Philadelphia to triumph
over Varsity, 4-2, in a closely contested
game ‘last Saturday. Varsity’s second
defeat this season was largely due to the
failure of the forward line to shootin the
circle, although the visitors clearly had
victory in their hands, as the Brown de-
fense weakened in the second half. The
All-Philadelphia team. was beaten by

the Al-England -team at St. Martins,
Thursday.
Though the forward line was fre-

quently disorganized and slow, Varsity
played a better game than last week.
Centering around A. Nicoll, the forwards
made some good get-aways, but its habit

‘of passing ahead into the opposing full-

backs was costly. E. Anderson played a
clever game at wing, evading her oppo-
nents effectively. .The defense, starring
H. Rice, fullback, took Philadelphia’s
measure consisfently throughout the first
half, holding them to a zero score, and
G. Rhoads, Varsity goal, prevented shot
after shot from entering the cage. F.
Bliss and V. Corse, at halfback, fed the
forward line well, but the attack dwin-.
dled-to nothing in the circle.

#rom a short period of indecisive play
atthe start, M.Faries, Varsity. wing,
shot down. the field for the first goal of
the game, and the only one in the first
alf. Then, with*>the game alternating
swiftly from.one goal to the other, a
long ‘struggle ensued, in which Varsity
checkmated all attempts of the visiting
team to break through. A spirited shot
by Miss Townsend, at center forward,
coupled with the visible weakening of
Varsity’s defense in the opening of the
second half, gave All-Philadelphia the
lead thenceforward. Put on their mettle
the visitors, rallying round Miss Town-
send, organized a speedy attack, which
swept through all opposition. Combin-
ing with D. Lee, ’25, substituting at in-
side. on the Philadelphia team, Miss
Townsend wormed her way through the
Varsity defense for two more tallies,
while-Mrs. Nalle, at halfback, accounted
for another. Only once again did Var-
sity master the situation, when M. Faries
made a second pretty shot from the left
‘of the circle.

politics throughout. the world. Mrs. Catt
will speak at 8.30-0’clock tomorrow even-
ing in the gymnasium. =

“She was still in short dresses, with her
hair in -a braid down her back,” says a
Los “Angeles paper describing, Mrs. Catt’s
first step in her remarkable career, There
were thirty pupils under her fuitiOn; some
of them older than herself. She con-
tinued to teach until she was sixteen, when
she was able to enter Iowa College, paying
her way by the money she had saved from
her teacher’s salary and by her earnings as
assistant librarian. Her four years at .col-
lege cost her father only $100.

By the time she was twenty-two; Mrs.
Catt, then Miss Lane, had been appointed
superintendent of schools in Mason, Iowa.
“A successful educational career seemed to
be opening before her, when, liké many
another woman, she threw it all up to
marry,” says The New American Woman
for April, 1917. In 1890, after her hus-
band’s death, Mrs. Catt made her first ap-
pearance on the suffrage platform. From
that time her sphere of influence ‘widened
rapidly.

So great washer power of-oratory and
so high her executive ability that she rose
quickly in the suffrage ranks to important
positions, and succeeded Susan B. Anthonj
as president of the National Woman Suf-
frage Association in 1900, ‘and in 1902
founded the International Woman Suffrage
Alliance, of ” which she has been ag
ever since. ~

Frank Leslie, Mrs. Catt founded, in 1917,
the Leslie Bureau of Suffrage Education,
the Leslie Suffrage Commission and the
Woman Citizen, the only woman’s political
journal in the United States.

At the outbreak of the war Mrs. Catt
proposed that the ‘services of the suffrage
organization be offered to the government.
As a result of this, both she and Dr. Anna
Howard Shaw served on the Woman’s
Committee df the National Council of De-
fense, Dr. Shaw as chairman.

In the spring of 1919 the National and
International Leagues for Women Voters
were organized after the plan drawn up by’
Mrs. Catt.

COLLEGES OPINION MIRRORED
IN VASSAR, RESOLUTION

Delegates From Twenty-two Women’s
“Colleges Attend Disarmament





Conference %
Professor Commends? Spirit noe 4

. Delegates from twenty-one Eastern wom-
en’s colleges were present at Vassar last
Saturday at an Ihtercollegiate Conference
on Disarmament, held under the auspices
of the Vassar Political Association. A sét
of resolutions drawn up by this Conference
was submitted to Secretary of State:
Hughes as an expression of college opinion
with referénce to the forthcoming Wash-
ington Disarmament Conference.

A luncheon, presided over by Miss Janet .
Graham, president of the Vassar Self-Gov-"
ernment Association, opened the Confer-
ence, Mr. Lindsay Rogers, of Columbia,
and Mr. Edward P. Warner, of Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology, being the
speakers. According to Mr.:Rogers, thi¢
country is pessimistic but determined, and
if the Conference at Washington faith-
fully endeavors .to regulate policy before
armaments, instead of basing policy upon
armaments, good results are to be hoped —
for. Mr. Warner pointed out that with
the invention of chemical weapons only the
limitation of large scale production can be
controlled. A great step toward disarm-
ament would be the abolition of all but
defensive armaments, he declared. :

In the afternoon. session the Conference
was divided: into three groups, each dele-—
gate attending one of special interest. At
the end of the afternoon each group had
embodied the results of its discussion in '
the form of a resolution, which was then
submitted to a general delegation ‘meeting ‘
and voted upon. The subjects of group’
discussion were Principals of Disarmament,
Methods of Control and Financial and
Technical Questions. The debating was
often spirited and, according to a member



.of the Vassar faculty, showed genuine in-

terest and sound ideas on the subject.

“You can no more expect nations to dis:
arm when there is no assurance of inter-
national protection than. you can expect
cowboys to give up their revolvers before
the cofaing of sheriffs and police courts,”
was Mr. Holt’s statement.. Just as men
living without law ‘are drawn into. the or-
ganization of society with the coming of
civilization, so nations. will be drawn
naturally into an organization for law and
order.. “America will naturally drift into a
the League,” Mr. Holt. declared. ’

“The League of Nations is the greatest
instrument of oppression the world has
ever seen,” stated Mr. Gibbons, the second
speaker. “There is absolutely no grounds
for hope,” he went on, “that the Washing-

nations will be willing to make concessions
likewise. The results of a conference car-

ried on’ in the ‘grabbing’ spirit -of Ver-—
sailles can never result in establishing ~
permanent foundation for peace.”

After the speeches there was discussion —
from the floor, and a referendum vote was
taken ‘on the resolutions drawn up by the 4
delegates. Two of these resolutions ‘were
ambiguously worded.

THE VASSAR CON FERENCE

eer The fact that a mass meeting of Vassar
College rejected two out of the four reso-
Jutions drawn up_ by the Intercollegiate:
Conference on Disarmament is a point for
other colleges to think about. —
However discouraging to the exhausted
delegates, this rejection was @ reasonable
_ and commendable action, taken because a
group of intelligent thinkers would not let
themselves be led blindly. The resolutions
to which they objected were worded am-
biguously, and rather than pass these, with
a hope that they.meant something to some-
body, they struck out one completely ‘and
fadically changed another. During this
. discussion the delegates realized that not
'- only had their choice of words been poor,
but their ideas vague, so that at a “ short
meeting afterward they restated the two}.
resolutions, at last feeling satisfied that
their opinioit was adequately expressed.
This second version of the resolutions
‘is being submitted for approval to éach
separate college. Although its form has
been improved since Vassar objected to it,
there is still no reason why Bryn Mawr
or any other college ‘shotild accept it tin-
challenged. Unless the College can hon-
! -estly declare its opinion that* these resolu-
tions embody the most important ideas
which could be emphasized and that they
express these ideas with the greatest pre-
cision, it should scrap the work of the
conference and make new resolutions of
-its own. Only if the colleges do think on
this most vital subject will the Vassar con-
ference, as Mr. Hughes so sanguinely
hoped, have “aided in’ the formation of
sound opinion based upon a clear concep-
tion’ ‘of all pertinent facts.”

Describes Presidential Reception

“This afternoon, under a clouded sky,
we wore the silk hats which we had brought
so far for the purpose of the reception
given by the president in his state residence .
in the Hmperial City. We entered the
Sovtth gate, were ferried across a lake to
an island, inspected a summer house, trav- ~
érsed a marble bridge to a group of elab-
orate buildings through which we _ passed
to a complicated zig-zag, devil-balking

lines.) Thence we. went on to an artificial
rock garden with grottos, tunnels, mazes.
Finally we emerged upon a shady avenue
where rickshas were waiting to take us to
the: audience chamber, a court-yard roofed
in by a modern structure which looked like
an exhibition building at the Minnesota
State Fair.

“Some 400 of us saw Mr. and Mrs,
Rockefeller and Abby Rockefeller led away
into the, house for a private audience.
From the latter I learned that this con-
sisted of an exchange of greetings, ex-
posure to a nioving picture camera, and the*
serving of champagne and soda water.
When the Rockefellers returned there was
a lining up of soldiers, officials and other -
dignitarjes a la an opera entrance for the
star. At length a mild-mannered,‘ simply
dressed Chinese gentleman appeared, came
down the steps to a yellow and green
dragon carpet, réad an_address of _wel-
come which was translated into English.
Then Mr. Rockefeller’s reply was turned
into Chinese: :

“This ceremony over, a little lady sup-
ported by two attendants came tottering
down’ the steps on her tiny golden lily
feet and joined her husband, the president.
Two “little girls, an older daughter and a
lagy-in-waiting, were also. of the party,
while two grandsons in lovely Yale blue
trousers stood in the background. We
formed a line, were introduced to the presi-
dential party, then fell upon the -tea, punch,

IN THE NEW BOOK ROOM

Lovers of Chesterton and Shaw will be
glad to find two of their latest books on ~
the new book shelf, which,: with a collection
of sea stories by J. L. French, represent
the new acquisitions in fiction. - -

“The Ballad of the White Horse” shows
Mr. Chesterton in his more romantic vein;
the poem, he says in the preface, “is meant
to emphasize traditien rather than history,” |
and is “written upon hearsay as the old
balladists” wrote. It is. the story of King ~
Alfred's victory, over the Danes, “great, )
beautiful, half-witted men, from the” sun-
rise and the sea,” and is a tale of prophecy ~
as well as war.’

“Back to Methusaleh, a _ Biological
Pentateuch,” is a typical Shawian play
which discusses everything from ‘the
“Dawn of Darwinism’ down- through
“Paley’s Watch” and “Darwin and Karl
Marx” to “My Own Part in. the Matter.”
The drama begins with “Adam and’ Eve”

‘ WELLESLEY’S “VARSITY TEAM
DAUNTLESS AS USUAL".

(From ‘Wellesley. News for October 13)

“[In: view of the fact that the NYws
takes great pride in its advance notices,
and also in consideration of the fact that
the public takes equal delight in them,
we have ventured to reprint a clipping
from the News of next November 11.]., .
. “The All-English team has. been te-

. puted to ‘play entirely in the air, having|

on one occasion been known to dribble
*the’ ball-seventeen time's in succession at
waist level. Yet so deeply has this. re-
‘‘markable story been impressed upon the
hockey players of our Alma Mater that
no pains have been spared to increase the
speed, agility, .aimy, strength, . endurance,
and mid-air playing capacity of our Wel-
lesley girls. Ordinary taining has~given
way to ice showers, two hours of speech-

‘and a diet of water and cheese. As for

the academic, it has been loyally sacri-| -

ficed for the glory and eternal fame of
the college to’ the extent of flunking out
all the hockey players immediately aftér
‘the game. But what matters it? Thin
as a rail, strong as a horse, wide awake
as an owl, swift as a pestilence, agile as a
gazelle, and enduring as evérything, the
Varsity-hockey player has. left in her
trail a new chapter in the annals of Wel-|
lesley prestige. Whe fact that a group of
“hockey players in one college i in America
can-easily outstrip the best players in all
England is as nothing compared to the
fact that in one short month such re-
markable preparation has taken place as
to make this possible.. To improve the
team, play of a certain group in a short
time is not: an impossible task, provided
the correct measures are taken; but to
change a game so completely as to re-
move it frém the natural ground-on
which it is played in order to make of

ENGLISH PLAY EXCELS IN CLEVER.
, NESS AS MUCH AS IN SPEED.



(Contribuféd by Sportg Editor) .
“To all those who saw either of the
games the. All-England team played last
week the English style of game, np doubt,
seems. very different from aged in
America, and. above all, faster. Speed,

of ‘the team -were the otttstanding fea-
tures of the English play fn these two
games. Sas

The English know how to run, in the
first place. Always on the balls of their
feet, thy. make m0 unnecessary movements
to spring into motien and they take
medium-sized steps. Thus they are enabled
not only to make tong passes ahead which
they can catch up with, but also to main-
tain a perfect control of the ball at every
moment. Their. clever’ stickwork is an
added advantage here.
deal of wrist ‘motion into their manipula-
tion of the’sticks, they are -adepts at. evad-
ing attacks and working through: an op-
posing line. Above all, each member of the
All-England team appears to have a perfect
confidence in every other member, which
is amply justified. ;



(Continued from Phge 1)
According to-Miss Lindsay, the most
important ‘thing about the Summer
School was the opportunity it gave the
workers to meet people of such. different
types. “No two girls had had the same
experiences,” she declared. . “Different
parts of the. country, and different na-
tionalities were represented. The School
brought these-girls together under con-
ditions formerly .unknown to them, and
gave them a broader undegstanding of
each other.”

The Self-Government Association was
described by . Miss Weinstock. . “This.
Association meant a great daar to the
students,” she explained, “and they real-
ized that not only self-governrftent, but
the meetings of the Administrative and
Faculty Committees affected them. Meet-
ings, often lasting’ until 11 P. M., were
held three times a week.” The Self-
Government Association. obtained per-
mission for ,student representatives to
attend meetings of the Health, Faculty
and Instruction Committees. |

“Before the time of the Summer
School the, state of ‘the working girl was
different to what it is now,” declared
Miss ‘Doyle.. “A girl, havirig developed
a certain talent throaggh’ a number. of
years of spécialize@ training, ought to
have been allowed to express her opinion
as to the best: methods to be used in this
branch of the-business. Instead of this
her mentality and powers of observation
were stumped. Any ordinary worker
who attempted to -call the attention of
kthe manager to any talent discovered
among the workers, was immediately dis-
couraged: But since she has been to the
Summer School she has been paid atten-
tion to‘more readily.” It is these people,
who have learned to express themselves,
who ‘will be able to form organizations
protecting the interests of the ‘Working
girls.

‘DEAN SMITH IN CHAPEL

“Speaking in chapel last Thursday morn-
ing, Dean) Smith ‘described the different
‘activities df ‘the students in - Summer
School,

“The need for self- -governitientt was not
realized at first,” said Dean*Smith. “The
students did not want any quiet hours, be-
cause they had ° no intention gf making a
noise. “A committee, however, was ap-
pointed to work up a constitution, In
spite of the precautions we took to keep
_all copies of our constitution of self-gov-
ernment from them, they found. one, on
which they modeled: their constitution.”
Although the spirit was good the..organ-
ization was not entirely successful, because
they did‘ not set. up-enough. machinery to
enforée the carrying out of the minor rules.

“Athletics were most successful,”
tinued Dean Smith, “An unusual circum-
stance was that the girls. themselves—real-
ized that they needed corrective exercisés,
and there was a comparatively large at-
tendance at an optional gymnasium class,
held every morning at 6.45 o’clock. . Since

‘quented the gymnasiums of the Y. W. C.
A. to one out the recommendations given
to them.”

A paper, called the Bobs. ¥ was published
weekly, and contributed to by all the stu-
dents. This gave opportunity for express-
ing the opinion of the school and of keep-
-ing a record of events.

“The girls cared so much for everything
concerning - College,’ concluded Dean
Smith, ,“that they took up all the policies
of the school, its further development, and
questions of education with great interest.
Now that they have gone out and formed
an. Alumna Association this interest will

keep on growing,” é

DR. TYSON EXPLAINS GREEK, AND
ROMAN INFLUENCES ON PAUL



Accounts for Emotional Nature by
Hardships Undergone in Travels .

Continuing :the ‘ast week’s theme,
Dr. Stuart Tyson opened the second lec-
ture of his Bible Study Course, held in
Taylor Hall last Wednesday evening,
with an account .of the Greek influences
in Paul’s life.

Though a Jew, Paul was not born in
Palestine, but in the cosmopolitan city of
Tarsus, a university town, where, said
Dr. Tyson, Greek was generally spoken.
Paul received the training of a rabbi, or
teacher of law, and was sent, after the
custom of the Jews, to complete his edu-
cation in’ the synagogue at Jerusalem.
Coming here under the instruction of
Gamaliel, the famous rabbi, he was“en-
couraged in the study of Greek, so that

literature and philosophy, ig bidaiie the
stoic.

Of his Roman citizenship, ‘according to
Dr. son, Paul was very proud.. The
hore had been bestowed upon his father
or grandfather for services to Rome. It
was because of his citizenship that he
was able to appeal to the empefor and
go to Rome to be tried instead of re-
ceiving- judgment in Jerusalem. He used

the Roman | world-wide organization—
roads, provinces, etc.—to spread the
influence of his three-fold character

through the empire.
“Paul was a man of prayer and action,”
declared Dr. Tyson; “he was a mystic
who gave himself wholly to the love of
Christ.” He had an exceedingly emo-
tional temperament, changing from the
highest exaltation to the deepest despair.
This was perhaps because of his nervous
ailment, caused by the hardships through
which he passed, for “he was three times
lashed by the Jews, three times beaten,
once stoned and three times ship-
wrecked,” Dr, ‘Tyson stated, “and yet he
conquered the empire.”

EMPLOYEES TO HOLD “TOWN
MEETING” EACH MONTH



Maids to Use Wyndham Studio for
Gathering Monday Night

Town meetings, where the employees of
the College will discuss matters which
affect them, have been adopted as a feature
of the business organization. The idea,
presented by Mr. Foley, superintendent of
grounds, has met with favor among the

‘employets, some of whom disapproved of

the suggestion made to organize a_ small
committee with representatives from each
group of workers (maids, mechanics, cler-
ical staff, men on the grounds). The first
town meeting was held September 28,
President Thomas presiding. Meetings

Thomas or Dean Smith will preside.
The small studio at Wyndham will be
at the disposal of the maids for social pur-

poses oh Monday evenings. Newspapers

for-the maids have been provided ‘by’
President Thomas. Bookshelves’ will be
put in the maids’ dining rooms and books
also will be donated as soon as it can be
saastncasnte what the maids wish. -

DR. JONES STRESSES PERSONAL
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD



Uses Jacob as Example of Believer

In accordance with the name of the
college and as he said in reply to a pre-
vious challenge, Dr. E. P.- Jones, of
Wales, read his “text..in Welsh, .in his
chapel sermon last Sunday night.

Jacob was: the subject of the sermon,
although, according to Dr. Jones, he
made “a better text than man.” With-
out going into a metaphysical or theo-
logical discussion, which Dr. Jones felt
unwarrantable at that “time of night,” he
showed that the only explanation of the

| prophet Malachi’s assertion, that God

loved Jacob in spite of his crookedness
and hated Eseau in spite of his’ decent-
ness_was_that ‘Jacob ‘for*all his baseness
had a sense of “the reality of the unseen
world.” Since he was far enough away
from the elders of his denomination -
Wales, Dr. Jones said, he dared assert
“that God never hated any man,” that
idea was metely the interpretation of
the writer’s knowledge of the survival
of Israel and the destruction of Edom.

‘altars to~him. For even though the

altars that men build are dismantled,

TTEE

The. Joint Administrative Committee of
the Bryn Mawr Summer School for
Women Workers in Industry met in a two-
days’ session at the deanery on Saturday
and Sunday of last week. Twenty-six were
present on October 22nd and twenty-eight
‘on October 23rd. °

At a’ meeting of the Board of Directors,
held’ gn October 2ist, it was voted unani-
mously to grant to the Joint Administra-
tive Committee the buildings and grounds}
to be used again for a Summer School for
Women “Workers in Industry in the sum-
mer of 1922, to be. conducted in such a

" manner as may be determined by the Joint
Administrative Committee. The Joint
Administrative -Committee unanimously
voted to conduct a summer school on the
same lines in the summer of 1922 and ap- |:
proved a budget’ of $36,000, which the
Finance Committee agreed to raise,

It was a most inspiring two days. I
think that I have never presided over any
meeting at all approaching it in the .in-
tensity of interest felt by everyone present
and, above all, in the impassioned interest
shown by the women in industry, especially
by the students who*had been in the School
last summer, It seemed to me an example
of what might be done in the world of
‘education if colleges could secure the same
eager co-operation on the part of their
students. You remember that I spoke about
this in my address at the opening of the
College and in the background of my mind
eer asking myself constantly whether
there is any way by which students happy
“enough to study in College for eight months

can be made to care as intensely about the
seta they receive and to try to profit
as much from it as the students of the
Summer School care about what is taught
them during the eight weeks of the sum-
mer and try to profit from it. Their car-
ing so greatly is, to all of us, indescribably
touching and gives us. a wholy new
sensation.

Composition of Committee Changed

It was determined by vote of the Com-
mittee that the officers of the Committee
elected by the Joint Administrative Com-
mittee to carry onthe work of the School,
and the chairman of the Finance Commit-
tee, who secured the funds, should be re-
garded as belonging neither to education
nor labor, but should be regarded as the
‘elected representatives of the policy of the
Committee. The representation of women
in ‘industry was, thereupon, by unanimous
vote, increased. Seven ofthe alumnae of
the Summer School are to be elected by
proportional representation by the alumnae
of the School, so as to correspond to the
seven Bryn Mawr alumnae representatives
appointed by the Board of Directors of the
Alumnae Association. The president of
the Bryn Mawr Alumnae Association was
made one of these seven representatives.
The publicity.chairman of the Bryn Mawr
Alumnae Association was asked to sit with
the Joint Committee without a vote. %
was further decided that as the terms o
the seven leaders in industry expired their
vacancies. should be filled by the alumnae’
of the Summer School, voting by propor-
tional representation in order that the lead-
ing women in industry in different parts
of the United States may be selected.

MERITS FOR TWO DAY SESSION

wn By Labor Representatives
° Specially Contributed by President Thoma

in Order that the women workers of the
\ untry might feel that they shared with
making the labor school absolutely non-
partisan and truly representative. They
stated that Bryn Mawr seemed to them
the one place in the country where it might

be possible to try the experiment . fairly
without such representation, but that if, as

was copied in other colleges they could not
feel*sure that without this safeguard there
thight not be an attempt on the part of the
conservative elements in the colleges of the
United. States to capture the education of
labor and not to present all. sides of the
difficult questions. involved. On the other
hand, some of the representatives: of the
College feared that if a fifty-fifty manage-
-ment were put into ‘operation the purely

safeguarded. The best speech on this stde
of the question was made by Mrs. Russell,
who spoke of the experiments in workers’

the workers themselves, and said that the
educational institution most successful in
training’ leaders in industry has _ been
Ruskin College,
University,- which was conducted «by the
professors of Oxford and was not con;
trolled by the workers themselves. She
stated further that workers’ education had,
in almost every case, become one-sided,
teaching predominantly the trades union
point of view. In the course of the dis-
cussion the members of the Committee rep-
resenting the College became convinced
that whatever the risk in a fifty-fifty repre-
sentation it was better to take it in order
that women in industry might feel com-
plete confidence in the experiment.

Students to Advise Instructors

On the Instructing Committee we took a
long step forward. We voted that this
Committee which takes charge of the in-
struction of the Sthool, should have on it

the Summer: School; and two students,
electéd by the student body, so that they
could tell. the Instructing Committee how
the work was going, whether it was adapted
to their needs; whether it was a success.
This will be a very .interesting experiment
-and I am not at alf sure that it may not
bea step which could be copiéd by all pro-
gressive colleges, for, after all, you are the
clients for whom we provide an. education.

As a result of this two-days’ conference
I feel greater confidence than ever hefore
in the experiment. I am now quite sure
tfiat if we go to work in the right way
those of us who are so happy as ‘to have
the opportunity for education and for in-
teresting work after we are educated can
come together with men and women .who
work with their hands and try to under-
stand ‘one another and work out some way

world (I hesitate to say what can be done
with the millions upon millions of uncivil-
ized peoples Tiving in Asia and Africa) an
equal opportunity for education and condi-
tions of living in which they can profit
from edueation. This labor school is a
practical experiment in this direction and |
I wish to ask the students individually and |
through their Undergraduate Committee to
watch it as carefully as possible.
