LANTERN NIGHT CEREMONY
PERFORMED. IN | CLOISTERS
New.Greek Song Sung tor the Second
_ Time by Entering Class
Red lanterng ‘with the Chinese charac-
ters for*twenty-five were presented to the
Freshmen by the Sophomores last. Friday
night at the’ annual celebration of Lantern
Night. .- : : :
, Although the Sophomores could be heard
singing from the moment they left .Pem-
broke Arch, on account of the stillness of
the night, the Freshmien had to wait -an
unnecessarily -long time before they ar-
rived at the cloisters. Both classes walked
the entire length®of the cloisters ugder the
arch, approaching the fountain by the cen-
tenfOtepse :
The singing of 1924 was noteworthy for
its volume. On their entrance and while
they were marching in single file, they did
not put much expression into their song,
but when they came together at the head
of the. cloisters it was well. modulated.
The Freshmen had le§s volume than the
Sophomores, although their . voices were
well modulated and true. P
-Under Pembroke Arch, after the cere-
mony, }925 sang their’ class song for the
first time. Composed by C. Miller, to an
unwritten tune by Meyer: Davies; the words
are:
All hail glorious Bryn Mawr,
The red shall thy praises sing.
Near and far
The- hills shall be.echoing.
- Oh, ’25, we love best of all,
‘Singing of you now,
Here by Taylor Hall,
While the moon hangs low.

The greatest class of all,:
Side by side
We can-never fall.

Study and Practical Experience
‘“Labor unrest is a serious reflection- on
the intelligence of the employers,” accord-
ing to. Mr. Seebohm Rowntree in his in-
formal talk in Room E, Taylor Hall, on
Sunday evening. Mr. Rowntree is a mem-
ber .of the British Unemployment Commis-
sion, although he is studying the problem
unofficially in America* He is also the
head of the Rowntree candy work which
employs 7000 men and whgre he has an
opportunity to test the practicality of his
ideas. ’
Mr. Rowntree responded to Mr. Rufus
Jones” introduction by asking for real sym-
pathy since he had come to learn and not
prepared to talk; he acknowledged the fair-
ness of giving for what he got with the
tale of the York man, who, on being asked
by the grocer if his change was right, an-
swered, after a careful inspection, “Yes,
but na but juist!” The problem of indus-
trial unrest ‘and- unemployment on which
Mr. Rowntree proposed to speak, was, he
said, universal. “England is comparatively
poor, but her standard of living is lower;
and the tragic thing is that even wlien the
standard is low, workmen’ spend 60 per
cent. of their time doing the job and 40
per cent. doing their bosses. There are
three channels of solution that have been
offered: First, make capital so strong it
will crush labor, but the days. for that have
gone by; second, make federations, of capi-
tal and of labor, thus securing a balance of
power; but balances of power have recently
gone out of favor; third, remove the causes
of-labor unrest; this is the only practical
remedy. Of course, you can never.entirely-}
get rid of labor unrest, but you can help
if you are willing to pay the price of in-
dustrial peace.” = *
Mr. Rowntree offered no panacea, for, as
he quoted Rabelais to prove, “One must bet
ware of men who peer out of one hole,
they “are’rabpNs.” Instead he offered five
remedies: The first, wages, “they should
make possible marriage, notirishment and
education of family, recreation, and a con~
tingency fund. The only way to pay is by
earning, therefore, make your business. effi-.
cient.” The second, hours, “Industry is be-
coming increasingly monotonous and the

SPECTACULAR TEAMWORK OF

BREAKS THROUGH VARSITY’S STRONG DEFENSE, 18--0

Scoring “an overwhelming victory. for
the fourth time in their American tour
the -All-England Hockey Team smoth-
ered Varsity, 18-0, in a brilliant battle
last Saturday, before the largest and
most enthusiastic hockey audience Bryn
Mawr has ever” witnessed.. The clever
tactics and skilful shooting of the Eng-
lish. as--well-as their remarkable speed,
which prevented the Bryn Mawr players
from establishing any sort of goal-proof
defense, held breathless some 500 per-
sons during an hour and ten minutes of
play. Under the spirited. direction of
Miss Marian: Holt, ’23, College cheer
leader, the splendid stops made by. the
blue players were wildly cheered by the
students, and at half time a moving pic-
ture machine was put in action.
Varsity’s persistent guarding in the
backfield and its tardy forward line com-
bined to put the ball only three times in
their, own circle. Frequently the fulls
and halfbacks got the ball out of the
danger zone after some sharp scraps,
only that it should be lost to the oppos-
ing defense because the backs could not
follow up and the forwards were too
slow. H. Rice, at fullback, was. the
mainstay of the home team, and with
G. Rhoads, goal, put up a staunch fight
throughout the game.
From the start the English forward
line, centering ‘around Miss—Lidderdale,
England’s foremost woman hockey star,

The High Cost of Living
- Conditions were nearly ideal for Lantern
Night last ‘Friday: The weather was. clear
and mild and the stillness was such that
the singing really carried over the library
from the time the anthem was started at
Pembroke Arch. For a beautiful and suc-
cessful performance both the Freshman
and Sophdinore classes deserve credit.
However, there is one criticism which may
be made of Lantern Nights i in general, and|
® several which the audience seemed to feel’
saan

strongly on-this-oceasion—the long delays,
the inadequate seating arrangements, and}:
. the exorbitant admission. fee. If the charge
“is to be raised so disproportionately it
would seem at least as if the grandstand
could: be improved accordingly so that half

if the continuous pauses could be elimi-

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
To the Editor.of Tue Cottece News:
~Would you marry a pugilist if you loved
him? Could you love a man who made his
fortune in the prize ring?
These are leading questioris, but I make
them in good faith. ” ."
Perhaps you have not followed the career
of Kane Halliday whose fistic romance has
been running serially and whose story in
novel form is now about to be published
under the title of “The Leather Pushers.”
That is of no importance. But several of
my critical friends have told me that such
a lovely girl as is pictured in the .story
could not and would not love, much more
wed, a man who had been a prize fighter.
I doubt it. But the criticism makes me
curious to get at the real facts. So I am
taking this very great: liberty of asking
what you and perhaps your friends in col-
lege think abouf it. It is, you can well
understand, necessary for me to know’ the
truth, for nobody has ever alleged before
that my heroines were not human. .Here

Could you love a man who had ‘been a

“during the wogking life and -old age of:
the worker,” -this is the most important, for’
there will ‘never’ be industrial peace untile
we have solved the ;problém of unemploy-
ment; we have accepted it as an inevitable
evil, but jt is not sa Tithe fact of unem-
ployment is*not a ‘tragedy, ‘but the suffer-
ing and demoralizatiun. it causes. Work is,
of course, the great cure and there are’sev-
eral lines .of approach; (a) the govern-
ment may advance and retard demands of
work, the building ,of. public , memorials,
parks, roads, etc.;.(b) the worker may
have two jobs, as is usually the case in Bel-
gium,. where-.an enormous percentage of
men have bits of land in the country that
they work in ‘spare time and when busi-
ness is slack (Mr. Rowntreé has spent feur |
years studying the methods of Belgium) ;
(c) the government may provide eae
and rapid transit sq as to give better op-
portunity for two jobs and to enlarge the
labér market; (d) seasonable trades may
unemployment, as Mr. Rowntree showed,
but when all this is done there is still a
reserve of workers, for.a reserve of work-
ers is necessary to industry. This being so
it seems nothing less than logical that in-
dustry should take care of them. For a
doctor or barrister to be out of work ‘for
a tite is no tragedy, for he can merely
cut down his recreation, but for the laborer
to be a member of this réserve is hell! The
remedy is so easy, industry has simply ‘to
remove the menace and it can do so by
insurangg There. is no financial difficulty,
95 per cent. of men are on the average un-
employed, this leaves only 5 per cent. to
be supported, and statistics prove that if
we -would put aside only 3% per cent. of
our wage bill, we could remove the menace
forever. Neither England or America has
done this and since they know its efficacy
-|the only reason .can be great and over-
‘whelining ‘stupidity.”:.
The fourth, the status of the: s worker,
“since..a..worker is an essential to indus-
try, educated and a citizen, who should he |
be regarded as a slave.” Mr. Rowntree has
tried the three essentials of democracy,
legislative, executive and judicial power, in
his works and found it successful. He’ has
divided government. equally between em-
ployer and employee and has made no pro-
vision for a drawn decision which he hopes
impossible and which would at least be “a
change of troubles, .which, according to
Lloyd George, is as good as a holiday.”
“It is great fun,” said Mr. Rowntree, “to
lead men, more fun to lead than to drive,
‘for any old fellow can drive, but it takes «
an artist to lead.” co ‘
. These points of wages, hours, economic
security and social status, Mr. Rowntree
said; he had “not been arguing but telling.”
Of the fourth he did not feel so absolutely
sure since for its advocation he had been
denounced as a “socialist and a cousin of
Gompers.” It is the plan of giving work-
ers a share in the business after capital
| has reserved a sufficient return’ to attract
all capital necessary for the business.
Mr. Rowntree ) believes, “if we will pay
the price of these remedies,” ‘although i.
may sound revolutionary and Gompers-
cousinish, we will solve the problem. But
we must pay quickly, for the price is going
up, and pay in full if we expect the full
results. Pay with faith in the future and
faith in our fellow-men; pay in the spiclt.
of brotherhood. e

At the invitation of Varsity the All- -Eng-

Friday, attending a dinner in Pembroke
with their opponents and members of the
Athletic Board beforehand.
Arriving at 3 o’clock,. the English play-
ers were personally conducted over the
campus*tosee the library, Dalton, - Taylor
and. the students’ rooms. Swimming and
water polo was staged for “their benefit: in
the pool and tea was served upstairs. Later
with members of the first and second teams
they did some English folk dances. under
Miss Applebee’s leadership, and partook’ of
doughnuts and cider. Limericks composed
by, E. Anderson and A. Nicoll served’ as
place cards at dinner jn Pembroke, while
autumn leaves and English, American and
Bryn Mawr flags decorated the long table.
The singing of college songs enlivened the
meal and: before dinner was over.,several
songs were found known ‘to everyone. The
party then adjourned to the cloister to see
the Lantern Night ceremony, which the] °
visitors found very unique. They preferred
Bryn Mawr to Vassar because “it is. so
small and homely” (i. e.’ homelike).

VESPERS LED BY MARION RAWSON
CLOSE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN
With the announcement of the new
members of _ the _Christjan _ Association
made in vespers last. Sunday, Marion
Rawson, ’22, formally closed membership
drive. Freshman members attended in
their caps and gowns and their names
were read according to custom: Final
statistics from all the classes are not
yet available. At the time the NEws went
to print, sixteen graduate students were
enrolled, fifty-two Seniors, fifty-eight
Juniors, .eighty-one Sophomores, and
eighty-nine Freshmen.
Miss Rawson, who is vice-president of
the Association, said, in a brief talk
after the announcement, “We can con-
tribute to-the Christian Association bud-
get and work on the different committees
without being really active members.
Our attitude toward other people ought
to show what membership in the Chris-
tian Association‘means to us. It ought
to make a vital difference in our lives.
If we could remember to do the little
friendly things that really count so much
in the end it would be easier for every-
one in College to live ‘in the spirit
of reverent .worship, fellowship and
service.’ ” ~

PAUL’S EPISTLES DISCUSSED AND
EXPLAINED BY DR. TYSON
Paul’s letters were the* subject of Dr.
Stewart" “Pyson’s third “Bible lecture given
ir Taylor Hall last Wednesday evening.
Dr., Tyson explained that the chief rea-
son for the—existence of the »letters :was
the condition of the Christian churches.
at the time, which made Paul. anxious
to encourage them and exliort them to
greater effort. He also had-a desire- to
express his opinion. For this reason he
wrote to the Romans of man’s relation to
God, and to the Ephesian'’ssof the Chris-
tian church. The Epistle.to the Ephesians
was not: a letter in the exact sense of the
Word, Dr. Tyson said, since it was not
designe@&for any one church.
“Out. of ‘what must have beén a_ most
extensive personal correspondence only oie
letter remains, the~Epistle ‘to~ Philemon,”
Dr. Tyson stated. This-is an appeal to the
owner of a runaway slave to forgive the
culprit.

IN THE NEW BOOK ROOM
“Humorous Ghost Stories” is the first
of the week’s new books likely to catch the
eye of a casual loiterer in the New Book
Room. It is a collection of the very best
stories of its kind, beginning with Oscar
Wilde’s ever refreshing “Canterville
Ghost,” and including, améng others, “The
Ghost that Got the -Button,” by Will
Adams, “The’ Haunted Photograph,”.. by
Ruth M. Stewart, and Theophile Gantite’s
“The Mummy’s: Foot.”
Another collection on the shelf this ‘aii
is “The Best Plays of 1920-21.” Here we
have the familiar titles “Deburau,” ‘The
First. Year,” “Enter Madame,” “The Green
Goddess,” “Liliom,” Mary Rose,” “Nice
People,” “The . Bad Man,” “Emperor
Jones,” and the “Skin Game,” bound to be
of interest to theater-goeys.
As a book of the times, “Fruits of Vic-
tory,” by Norman Angell, has come into
the library.- Mr. “Angell is the “fathor “ot
the “Great Illusion,” “Dangers of Half
Preparedness,” and a number of other
‘volumes on modern’ problems. —

MRS. CATT STRESSES. POLITICAL
DUTIES OF COLLEGE WOMEN
Delivers First Lecture ~ of Shaw
Memorial Foundation in Politics
“Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, founder of.
the Léague of Women Voters and for mdny —
years president of the National Woman
Suffrage - Association, delivered the -first
lecture of the Anna Howard Shaw Chair
‘of Politics before a large audience in the
gymnasium last Thursday evening at 830.
“A foundation in politics at a-woman’s
college is a most fitting memorial for Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw,” said Mrs. Catt in
the introduction to her lecture. “Dr. Shaw
was a genuine: maker of. history. More
than any other person she compelled the
natign to change its mind about suffrage,
and to write in the Federal constitution the
result of its conversion. -She, was~ easily
the greatest woman’ orator. the world has
yet produced. For nearly forty years she
fought, and pleaded, and then in the very
moment’ of triumph, she died.”
“You have inheritéd.a.baHot-share-in -the
government of this nation, plus superiority
of intelligence,’ Mrs. Catt told her audi-
ence. “The machinery through which you
must work is politics. Politics has been
called ‘a rege process ®f electing un-
known mento offices the duties. of which :
are either unknown or _ uninteresting.’
Politics is’ also present history,” said Mrs.
Catt... “It is ‘the drama played’; but
though it doesn’t require much intelligence
to understand history, provided it is well
written, it requires the highest —
to understand politics.”
“You are among the thirty per cent.
which controls the factors which ‘make
civilization,” Mrs. Catt declared.- “The
world of the future depends on your
breadth of vision, the clarity with which
you compel 6thers to see, the courage with
which” you defend: your. -end,.” . Though
government never reaches the level of the
highest intelligences, Mrs. Catt believes that, -
| fundamentally all people want. honest and
just .government. “The American people
are not always right but give them time
and they will wobble right,” she quoted.
“Our people’do not always know what they.
want... The aim of ‘the greatest good to
the greatest number’ is lost sight of in the
moods and emotions of the political drama.
No intelligent man or woman can exempt
himself, therefore, from political service
without corresponding loss in the welfare .
of his country.. -For intelligence there is
no divine right to privilege, but there is
divine right to ‘service.”
..Mrs. Catt will lecture at 8.30 tomorrow
evening on “How Politics Function.”

“THAT CARD FOR MOTHER—
(From the* Evening Bulletin)
Playing the, fitgst, brand of hockey ‘ever
seen in New England, the All-English
hockey team defeated the Boston. School
of Physical Education on‘ the grounds of
“the Longwood Cricket Club, 22 to 0. |
It was the most one-sided score that has
been recorded in the-five games played Ly
the visitors to date. The English line-up
was -greatly © changed, the most marked
changes being the placing of Miss .Lidder-
dale, the star center forward, at right back,
ftgm left back.
Boston held its forward line back with
the ball and playing from three to five,
‘players at the goal. The resulte was the
goal tender often missed drives which were
hidden from her view by her team mates.

As Others See Us
(From the Evening Bulletin)
The All-England field hockey team de-
the Main Liners’ grounds today by the wide
margin of 18 to 0.
: or he fair collegians - put up a diane de-
tengein the first half, held. the Britons
to seven goals and seriously threatened te
“score themselves on six occasions.
But in the second half the superior speed
and hitting powers of the irvaders,.to say
nothing of their smoother teamwork,
stroking and all-round knowledge of the, *
game, were entirely too much for the home
~ clan. .
The English girls opened their usual
dashing attack at’the start of the game, but
found it much harder. to score against the
tight defense of the Misses Nichol, Bliss
and Rhoades, the latter doing stellar work
at goal, than in their previous matches
here.
Miss Nichol dieting tied herself te tak-
ing the ball away from the swift Miss
Lidderdale ori one occasion, something no
other American player has been able to
accomplish. “
Not satisfied with ‘blocking the British
drive; the Bryn Mawr forwards, Miss Begg
and Miss- Faries, aided by Miss” Nichol,
swept down into their opponents’. territory
and-once*penetrated-as far_as the six-yard
line. ae
Eventually, however, the English girls
got their offensive under way and ham-
mered out seven goals, Miss Lidderdale
tallying four, Miss Willcock, Miss Amos
contributing two and Mrs. Stewart one.
Miss Willcock, just as fast as Miss Lidder-
for goal, contented herself with feeding
“the ball to her mates.
Toward the end of the half Miss Nichol,
the Bryn Mawr star, was walloped on the
head in a hectic scrimmage, but pluckily
refused to leave the game. Miss €lark, the |
British right wing, was slammed on the
shin and -painfully bruised just as the
period ended. She traded places with Miss
C. J. Gaskill, captain of the visiting com-
bination, where the second half began and
held down the goal tender’s job in most
acceptable fashion.
The final period was somewhat of a rout
as the Bryn Mawr team had played itself
out in the ‘opener. Miss Lidderdale tried
to hold off 4nd act as “feeder” to the other
“forwards, but just couldft help scoring
three more goals. Miss Amos came through
‘with four, Miss Armfield got two, Mrs.
Stewart one and Miss Willcock also netted]
one. ‘

PRESIDENT OF ASSOCIATION EXPLAINS WEEK-END QUESTION:
4a
f Principle of Self-Government i is Directly Involved
(Specially Contributed by Kathrine Gardner)
The question of week-ends has come up
again with a new.significance. Because sev-
eral students had taken frequent week-ends,
which in President. Thomas’ opinion made
them undesirable, she explained last spring
a desire to limit the College to four week-
ends a semester. The Undergraduates.in a
meeting .sympathized with President
Thomas’ desire to keep up a high academic
- standard and to avoid criticism of the Col-
lege for laxity of any sort, but objected to
the rigidity of a‘rule punishing. the many
for the. sake of the few. We left for the
summer, then believing that © President
Thomas not only understood our point of
view, but also would leave.the question to
the regulation of public opinion.
During the summer, howeyer, all the stu-
‘dents who had taken more than four week-
ends and the class of 1925 received con-
tracts to limit elves to four, which
they had.to sign before their rooms would
“be reserved. After the support given the
‘spirit, if not the letter, of President
Thomas’ law, the students indignantly pro-
tested against the apparent disregard of
their powers of self-government. The ques-
tion then widens, and begins to involve the
near and joy-giving principle of individual
liberty.
In this light the Undergraduate Associa-
tion reconsidered the subject. Inasmuch as
“self-government,” according to the char-
ter, includes “the exclusive management of
all matters concerning the conduct of stu-
dents in their College life which do not
fall under the» jurisdittion of the author-
ities df the College, or mistresses of the
halls a residence”; inasmuch as, if the
matter is academic, the rule proposed is
certainly not a strictly academic regulation ;
inasmuch as the administration based its
statistics for’ sending out contracts on self-
governing records, thereby admitting the
previous jurisdiction of self-government in
the matter ; and inasmuch as any such reg-
ulation would’ transfer this jurisdiction
from self-government’ to the administra-
tion, interfering with the jurisdiction of
self-government without the assent of the
governed, the Undergraduate Association
passed a resolution to surrender the whole
matter to’ self-government.
At a meeting the Self-Government Board
explained the justification of taking up the
matter. It emphasized that more than a
question of week-ends was involved, that
the principle: of- self-government would be
infringed on, and above all, that the matter
of week-ends was merely the occasion that
brought up the far more important ques-
tion of tke power of self-government.
Considering that) self-government 16°°8

were suspended until a decision should be

the directors meet.
meeting of the Association this agreement,
and, with every desire of fairness. to the
administration, explained their point of
view.
It seems that President Thomas consid-
ers that “continuity of: residence is an aca-
demic matter.” Similarly, she feels that
proctoring, quiet hours, singing in the din-
ing room, going to the theater, if not reg-
ulated satisfactorily by self-government and
injurious to College work, are finally under
the jurisdiction: of the administration. In
President Thomas’ opinion, the individual | ————————————-———
ethic life of each student, the good name
and fame of the College, the training in
independence, the assistance given the ad-
ministration in regulating. College life are
the objects and purposes of self-govern-
ment. _Whatever, -in_ short, directly or in-
directly affects academic work, whether it
be for the moment in the hands of self-
government or of the wardens, she feels
to be within the jurisdiction of — the
administration. 4
We, on the other hand, feel that, as a
self-governing body, we should have a part
in making as well as in ,carrying out all
policies regulating College life.
