Mr. Bate’s Camp.
The new management of Bate’s House
this summer, by which Miss Crane, the

Superintendent, was assisted by an ex-
periénced housekeeper and a cook, has
been found, a complete success. At

Spring Street one hears from every side
praises of the management, the food and
of the healt and Mippinase which. the
guests gained there. Children were hap:
pier, mothers were happier, and workers

ere! happier arid more useful than,last year,

We have to thank for this successful
season Miss Crane, the Superintendent;

The editors of the College News take
great pleasure in presenting their first issue

to the college. They have organized them-:

selves during the summer in order to an-
swer a general feeling expressed last June,
in favor of a weekly newspaper. They hope
to. make the paper of all the-service which
it was thought such a paver might ‘offer.
To the faculty we hope to give the oppor-
tunity of putting in ‘notices and articles of
the things that interest them and would
interest the undergraduates, if they only
knew about them. To'the alunine we hope
to make a particular appeal through alumnz
notes, reports of college activities, and
an opportunity to express their opin-
ions on college matters. To the gradu-
ates we offer news of the work of the
faculty in their subjects outside of college,
a means of expressing their opinions and
reporting their activities. To the under-
graduates the paper will naturally be of
most interest, because it will report college
events, contain news of the alumna, give
opportunity for comparison of problems

.) with other colleges, and a chance for jour-

nalistic work. This purpose cannot be at-
tained unless all the people who were in fa-
vor of it, give their active assistance. With-
out the support: of everyone and without
the assistance of a great many, the editors
will be absolutely unable to make it a
success.



Qutside the office window hangs the
sign, “Reporters Wanted—the more ‘the
merrier.” This means people to gather
college, alumnz and _ intercollegiate news.
musical and theatre-going people to write
of the concerts and plays in town. If you
are at all interested in newspaper work
come and see one of the board right away.
The staff of the paper up to the present has
been purposely made as small as possible,
with just enough people to get-out the first
issues. This is because the editors have
felt they wanted time to find the very best
people for the work. All the material
which you hand in, and which is accepted,
will be kept under vour name and credited
to your account when new members are
added to the board next month. Profits
will be divided in proportion to the work
accepted among all the staff, reporters as
well a8 efftors Before you pick up pad
and pe and visit the Christian Asso-
ciation room in the library (office hours
2 to 3 daily), there are just a few points
to notice. Promptness in handing in ma-
terial is of the greatest importance. The
éarliest reports will of course receive first
attention. All work must be given to the

editors before one o'clock Fridays. Besides

prompt news. news that is out of the ordi-
nary, surprising, hard to get, will count
strongly in your favor. But remember.
first come to the board and get your “as-
signment.” The College News cannot ac-

cept anything from vou unless.you have

been authorized. by the editors.

The College News was started without
any idea of its being a paying proposition,
but of course a weekly paper cannot run
without a business organization. We have
arranged this to the best of our ability,
although any suggestions as to improved
business methods will be welcomed. To
say it tritely, we are anxious to please, but
we are also anxious to make the paper a
business success; not that we may make a
profit, but that we may show the -college
world the publication of a weekly can be
satisfactorily achieved, as has already been
proved for a monthly, and that we may be
able to increase the attractivenes$ of. the
paper. by having extras and cuts.

A large subscription list and many ad-
vertisements mean .a great deal of work
added to thegluties of the business man-
ager. TThere’is probably. work for a
dozen people on the business staff in
order. that no one may be strained. Ad-
dressing, mailing, and distributing copies,
and collecting subscriptions and advertise-
ments offer a good many means of helping
the paper, and of working toward a posi-
tion “as assistant business manager either
this year or next. Indeed jt may be found
wise to have two assistants to take charge
of the two sources of income. Therefore
do not consider that the chances are against
you, but try for one of these offices, which
may become remunerative, if. we, with your
help, are successful. ;

To the Editors of The Typyn O'Bob:

We wish to thank the 7'ypyn O’Bob for
the opportunity it offered us last May to
increase interest in a college weekly. We
wish to assure them that we will accept no
literary matter and would be very sorry
to infringe upon their sphere. If there is
any. way in which we could co-operate with
them, we should be only too glad of the
opportunity.





Notice, 1917,

Competition for the Assistant Busi-
ness Manager of the “College News” is
now: open. The successful candidate is
to be announced in November. Office
hours: Christian Association Library,
daily, 2-3.



‘To Alumnae,

We have sent sample copies to all the
A. B.’s of the college and to some for-
mer undergraduates as well, hoping they
will become interested in contributing
and subscribing to the paper. If they
send notice or check within two weeks
the second and third issues will be mail-
ed to them, so that they will not miss
President Thomas’ opening speech and
other items of important news. All sug-
gestions as to what material would ap-
peal to them will receive prempt attention.

CORRESPONDENCE COLUMN:



(The Editors do not hold themselves responsible
for the opinions expressed in this column.)

To the Editors:

Interesting and authentic college news
every week! That is what is within our
reach now that Bryn Mawr is to publish
a weekly. It ought to bea very special
boon to us, as alumnee, thus to be able to
keep in touch with Bryn Mawr’s daily
happenings; for, after all, it’s the con-
tinuity of detailed information that keeps
up our interest in things.

Can Bryn Mawr support a weekly news -
sheet with the “Typ” and “Lantern”? we
hear alumne and undergraduates ask. But
instead of asking’ let’s do it. As alumne
surely we can do our share and that a large
one. We can encourage the board by ex-
pressions of our approval; we can stimu-
late the board to greater effort. by our ex-
pressions of disapproval, ‘and we can all
subscribe,

Yours sincerely,

AN ALUMNA.

To the Editors:

The impression has gone abroad that
class government is becoming less and
less democratic, which means __ that
classes are getting further and further



| ber

away from the fundamental principle of
|Bryn Mawr College. In the matter of
iclass government, it has occurred to us
\that the following plan, if carried out in

| spirit rather than in letter, might solve

‘the difficulty. At the expiration of the

| six. weeks’ term of the temporary offi-
|cers a president shall be elected by the
| class.

At the same time each hall shall
lelect a representative. These represen-

tatives, together with the president, shall
| constitute the Board of Directors of the

class and shall choose from their num-
the other officers. Matters of im-
portance shall be discussed by the Board
and submitted to each hall by the hall
representative before being given to the
vhole class for decision. The hall rep-
resentative must realize that—she—m-ry
never act as an individual, but as a rep-
resentative of her hall. In carrying out
the full spirit of such a plan it would
logically come about that each member
of the class would have’ an opportunity
to share in the work of the class. It
might be a good plan in the larger un-
dertakings, such as a class play, for the
Board of Directors to apportion the work
to the different halls as nearly evenly as
possible, giving each hall its own definite
responsibility. The bond that will hod
a member most closely to her class is the
realization that she is an integral part of
its life and this realization will.come only
through having shared in the varied ac-
tivities of her class.

Dear Editors:

Often I find it difficult to answer cor-
rectly questions about Bryn Mawr Col-
lege. Will it be possible to obtain accurate
information through the medium of your
paper? If so, will vou kindly tell me what
vear President Wilson- was professor at
Bryn Mawr and where he lived?

"Varsity.

Captain, M. Morgan.

| This year every one is going to have
a chance to make_’Varsity. If some
other girl gets the position you have
been coveting, be 2 good sport and do
all you can to help her, for it is for the
|good of the team. The prospects for the
‘coming year are not as bright as the

might be. Only three of the last year's
\players are back. This necessitates the
filling of the eight other itions with
inew material. here is plenty of good
‘material in 1915, 1916 and 1917. The
‘Freshmen are an unknown proposition,
‘but for the most part it is inexperienced
iand undeveloped. There are two whole
\weeks before the first big game; there-
fore, f every one starts right in and
iworks as hard as possible, we will surely
have splenilid results. But it depends on
revery single, solitary. hockey: player, whether

‘Varsity will be a success or not.

1915 Hockey.
Captain, M. Morgan...

Reports from the front as to-1915
hockey shdw the casualty list increasing.
Since entering upon the hockey cam-
paign 1915 has suffered heavy losses. R.
Harrington, E. Channing, C. Head, L.
Mudge and E. Blount have all departed
‘this college life, while E. Pugh and H.
Everett have had leave of absence. But
all available material will be “command-
eered,” and the present team reinforced.
'And if the team: of 1915 can still “fight
with a might that has never been seen,”
the-enemies may be routed and victory
achieved.

1916 Hockey.

|: 1916 has lost this year some of its best
|hockey players: K. Scriven, Lf; H. Orr,
ith.; M. Mabon, rf; and A. Jaggard, g.

'| This means the team will have to be re-

‘arranged and many new players put on.
The vacancies can be well filled if every
‘one who is physically ab'e, will come out
and try, and will not say she is no
‘good. The reason 1916 has. not won
is not because it cannot, but because it
thinks it cannot.

1917 Hockey.

‘1917 hockey is going to be great this
year; that is, if everybody in the class
comes out fpr the teafns and shows en-
thusiasm. Everybody ought at least to
have a try at the game, for each one may
‘be just the star we need. Though we
have lost two or three of our best last
year’s players, there are plenty of people
'who came out seldom or scorned hockey
entirely last year, that can fill these va-
‘cancies satisfactorily. All three teams
ought to show great improvement since
last year, Practice and careful training
especially will do wonders. ~By coming.
out every day and by pulling together
you may be sure that our three hockey
teams will do the class great credit, even
lif they don’t carry off first honors.

1917 Tennis.

All 1917 tennis players should practice
every possible chance, as an improve-
ment in any one’s game may put her on
the team. We want to make the sum-
mer’ and autumn practice count for
something against 1915 and 1916, and no
one knows what we may have to en-
‘counter from 1918,

1918 Tennis.
Class tournament will begin Thursday.
