We hear that our subscribers have hit
upon a new method of economizing, that
they are buying one copy of the “College
News” for each corridor. We are glad,
of-eoeurse, that the “‘News”’ is appreciated
even to the extent of one copy per cor-
ridor. But we would remind you that the
paper cannot be run on a purely altru-
istic basis. In as small a college as ours,
the support of every member is necessary
to keep a weekly going. If you really find
the “College News” useful, it is very false
economy to form the habit of reading
your neighbor's copy, for if the habit be-
comes too general, there may be in time
no neighbor’s copy on which to depend.

We must again use our editorial col-
umn to ask fof the second kind of support
which you,can give us. The amount of
work*in getting out a weekly is sufficient
to keep a number of people busy. The
staff must be large and the work much
subdivided that the burden may not fall
too hard on anyone. If you are a friend
of the “News” you can show us no better

’ evidence of your interest than by visiting
the office immediately and offering your
‘services either for reporting or the busi-
ness end. If you can give up a half hour
a week, writing up a lecture or a meeting
or addressing mailing copies, you will be
helping us. We mean this for Underclass-
men especially. It is hoped the lower
classes will want to continue the work
begun by the “News” this year. .If next
year you would like to be on the board
or do editorial work, O Freshman or
Sophomore or Junior! come out and re-
port this year. ‘

BRYN MAWR, PA., OCTOBER 29, 1914

MEETING OF PRESIDENT THOMAS AND THE.
STUDENTS CONCERNING THE
ATTENDANCE RULE

President. Thomas opened the meeting
held on Thursday, October 22, by giving
the Faculty’s reason for making the new
rule regulating attendance at lectures.
She said that over 43 per cent. of the
student body took eight or more unex-
cused cuts during the first semester,
1913-14. The faculty committee had con-
sidered the question carefully, taking into
account the systems in other colleges.
Henceforth, moreover the numerical
grades shall be given in all examinations.
In this way the student may know how
much her mark was changed on account
of her cuts. This regulation willbe tried
for at least two years. If it does not work
well, it will be simple to alter it.
dent Thomas emphasized especially that
“a Bryn Mawr degree means four years’
attendance on lectures as well as passing
final examinations eight times a year, If
we did not believe this we should not be
a residence college.” She closed by say-

Presi-

- ing, “I want you, as all past students of

Bryn Mawr College to realize that that is
what I care about, what the Faculty cares
about—the standard of work—and we all
desire the same thing. And just because
we care so much, the Faculty felt it could
not-let the attitide shown by-some-mem-
bers of the student body—could not let it
go without trying’to turn the tide in the
other direction, and if the tide is turned
I shall be most happy to take away any
restriction which this seems to have im-
posed.”

In regard to the Student Council, Presi-
dent Thomas said, “It has never been con:
sulted adDout Faculty regulations. Many
of the Faculty do not know of its exist-
ence. It was organized by the two Deans
of the College and myself in order to get’
your help. in administrative questions.
We invited representatives of this body
to meet us at rather long intervals to dis-
cuss such college matters as residence
halls, the library, office administrations of
Faculty, improvements and abuses of the
various executive offices, all things in
which we thought the students could be of
great help. We have never brought Fac-
ulty: matters before the Council, Nothing
was further from my wish than to d@any-.
thing opposed to the rights of the Coun-
cil.”

The undergraduate speakers included

om

erett, M. G. Brownell, A. Hornberger, M.
Russell,. F. Hatton. The points made by

‘the undergraduates during the discussion
‘may be summed up briefly.

The students
declared that they felt the need of a cer-
tain number of free unexcused “cuts for
three reasons: First, because girls who
are not very strong are often obliged to
cut their: lectures and to see the doctor
for every sick headache, is a “galling re-
striction’; secondly, there are times
when a student feels ‘it of more profit to
spend a continuous length of time on one
subject rather than to go to her classes;
thirdly, since a student cannot feel her-
self entirely separated from the outside
world there are times when she must ful-
fill certain family obligations. The sta-
tistics of cutting in the past do not give
quite the-right impression, since many of
the cuts registered as “unexcused” might
have been excused had the students taken
the trouble to see the office about them.
The undergraduates do not think that “in-
tellectual” training consists in being
made to attend classes regularly. Before
reaching the outside world a_ student
should have some experience in responsi-
bility and self-dependence, which a board-
ing-school life denies her. The under-
graduates feel that they are old enough
to have the right of discrimination. The
lowering of academic grades for any
other reason than academic work
seems a misrepresentation:tf-professors
was said, lowered marks for
absence in the past in a subconscious
manner, it would seem that the lowering
of marks by the office would double the
process. So great an-innovation should
have been announced a longer time ahead
in order to give students out of sympathy
with the attitude of the College the op-
portunity to go somewhere else. It
seems to the undergraduate that the Col-
lege authorities have laid too much stress
upon the extreme cases and do not real-
ize that the majority of students do not
wish to cut. Bryn Mawr has stood in the
past for freedom and individual responsi-
bility, has in this respect been “charac-
terized and differentiated” from other col-
leges. Beeause of this the Bryn Mawr
type has evolved. “If the liberty and free-
dom is changed, will not the type change
too?”

One, if not perhaps the biggest point |
at issue, which came out at the meeting |
last Thursday night wap the question as)
to whether the Bryn Mawr type had)
changed. No one can deny that there has |
been a decided change since Bryn Mawr |
opened, in the interests, even in the actual |
character of the girls who come here. |
But it. must be remembered there has
been a corresponding change in college |
women as a whole. In earlier days, as |
one of the speakers pointed out, college |
women were the pioneers, only the most |
serious ¢ame to college, only those who)
intended to devote their lives to study. |
Can anyone object that to-day women |
who are perhaps less interested in ca-
reers, but women who will marry and
have children are also benefiting from a}

college education? Bryn Mawr led in the}
old days, but does she tead- any theless
to-day? Do we not hold the same posi- |
tion comparatively? Ask anyone to name |

CORRESPONDENCE COLUMN



(The Editors do not hold themselves

responsible for the opinions expressed in
this column.)
To the Editors:

The speaker at Vespers last Sunday |
said that it was not good for one to wish
to do a thing which one could not do. |
This seems to me a piece of advice which
a physician might give to a nervous, ®x-|

‘citable person, who had more enthusiasm |

than strength; it does not seem suitable,
however, for a group of young people who |
have in them the ability to accomplish:
almost anything, if only they feel they |
wish to do it. The speaker urged her

“| listeners not to make resolutions when |
under the stress of emotion or sudden |
| enthusiasm, but rather to think over their |
‘abilities and limitations before making.

/promises. I think that any leader in any
| kind of work can point to his first mo-
/ment of inspiration when he made a sud-
den resolve to accomplish his new _ pur-
pose, though the world should stand in
his way. If we should wait for calm con-
| sideration before we make any decision, I
fear that we would more often be called
'“slothful” than “zealous.”

PROF. FREDERICK A. CLEVELAND

“Frederick Aldrich Cleveland, Professor .
‘of Modern «European History at Bryn
Mawr College, died yesterday from tuber-
culosis at Saranac Lake, N. Y., in his
thirty-ninth year. Professor Cleveland
was born in Palmyra, N. Y., and was the
son of ‘the late Frederick E. Cleveland, a
‘lawyer of this city, and Mrs. Catherine
Sexton Aldrich Cleveland, of Palmyra,
who survives him. He was graduated
from Cornell University, from which he
received the degree of B.A. in 1899. Dur-
ing his college career he was one of the
‘editors of: ‘The Sun,’ ‘Widow,’ and ‘Lit-
erary Monthly.’ Professor ‘Cleveland
was a member of the fraternities of Alpha
Delta Phi and Phi Beta Kappa. From
| 1900 until 1904, he was a member of the
staff of ‘The Evening Mail,’ and was in
business in this city. Professor Cleveland
|did graduate work at Cornell, Freiburg,
_and Harvard Universities from 1907 until
He is
survived by his wife and two daughters.”

ber 16, 1914.

A Tribute to Mr. Cleveland

The death of Mr. Cleveland cannot
mean so much to those who did not know
him in his College work. He was. not
| here long and many people did not study
"under him. Yet to those of us whose
| good fortune it was to be in his classes,
the news of his death comes with tragic
|'suddenness. He was perhaps one of the
‘most thoroughly popular’ professors
jamong his students. Many of us had
|cherished the hope that he would return
to resume his position here.

The service that Mr. Cleveland ren-
|dered by his efficient work remains, fos-
tered by the rare inspiration he gave his
;students. What we have lost, and what
we try now to recaJl, is the man. He had
a certain simplicity and frankness, min-
gled with a shy geniality that was delight-
ful. His whimsical vein of talk and his
‘dry wit made his lectures alive. Always
emphatic, he never failed to add droll
side-lights; always accurate, he never
lost the charm of picturesque language.
He was a scholar and an historian; but
he was first of all a man whose life we
are glad to remember. ‘

THE COLLEGE NEWS



CURRENT NUMBER OF THE
“TYPN O’BOB”

Reviewed by Christine Hammer, '12

The -first issue of “The Tip” for the
- year 1914-1915 has just come into my
~ hands. As an alumna who knew “The
Tip” in her day as a diversely conveni-
ent college “organ,” I want to send
through “The College News,” the new
college “organ,” a short notice in regard
to “The Tip.”~ By its editorial confes-
sion “The Tip” admits this year to be
a crucial one in its career, for its “raison
d’etre” is to be tested by apparent com- |

petition. | should like to say here that
I believe



s “raison d’etre” will be posi-
tively established, for (I quote “The Tip” |
editorial) “ideas literary or —_—
humorous or serious, whether form
of story or verse’ should prove accep-
table to the College, if the contents of |
the present number of ‘The Tip’ may be

taken as typical in their “readableness,

and interest.”

The editorial, for example, is readable, |
except for an occasional curious lapse,
such as “fortuitous career,” either of edi-
torial vocabulary or of proof-reading. It.
is a frank statement of the possible pre-
eariousness of the _ situation in which
“The Tip” finds itself at the moment, and
by its very frankness is a spirited chal-
lenge to the friends of “The Tip” to rally
to its support.

“The White Papers” gives interestingly
a timely comparison of the pre-war com-
munications of England and Germany
with other European nations. The writ-
er’s emphatic assertion, that the German
White Papers were ‘tremendously inter-_
esting [to her] as an exposition of the

‘German point of view, [making her] won-
der whether Germany’s fears may not be
well founded,” should rouse those who do
not already know the papers to pass judg-
ment for themselves.

“The Broken Step” does consistently
what it sets out to do: tells a mystery
story. The proper atmosphere is rather.
well given both by the general setting
and by the specific detail.
osity is adequately stimulated. by the
opening situation; is carried successfully
through several obscurities; and _ is
finally completely satisfied by the grue-
some solution.

The poem, “Brighidin Mavrone,” has,
very appropriately, the incisiveness, the
compactness, the héeigtened power of sug-
gestion of the old English ballads. Its
technique, however, is not beyond re-
proach. For example, the point of view.
is quite unnecessarily confused, being
successively that of three different peo-
ple; first that of the lover (‘Bridget my
sorrow’); then that of a mere spectator
(‘her beauty’); lastly that of a dramatis
persona addressing the lady - (“you

One’s curi-—



walk”). However, if the first point of
view, that of the lover, were consistently
kept, the first line of the third stanza
would read: —

“My sisters wrap me ina shroud.”

“Pages from a Munich Diary” seems to
me excellent for its
imaginative reflection of the temper of
the German people in the early days of
the war: of their. first, brief, excited
gaiety; then of their puzzled, silent
amazement; of their final sorrowful, re-
solved loyalty. :

The review of “The Secrets of the Ger-

-man. War Office” exhibits the disadvan-

tages of an all-embracing “sense of the
serious,” a sense seriously recommended
in College Convictions!

In concluding, I speak in a riddle: “Is
the College yet reduced to ‘giving up the
salad course’?”

VARSITY-PHILA. C. C. GAME

Varsity was defeated by Philadelphia
Cricket Club, 4-3, last Saturday.
Varsity _line-up_was:—R.-Tinker, M. Mor-
gan, H. Chase,. D- Alexander, G. Emery,
V. Litchfield, M. Branson, W. Weaver, M.
Thompson, J. Pauling and F. Curtain.
For the first ten minutes there was hard

playing around. Varsity's goal, resulting |

in two, goals for Philadelphia. After this
Varsity picked up and Alexander scored
a goal. Varsity showed a decided im-

provement over last week and had more |

fighting spirit, but lacked speed and as-
surance.

ran the Varsity halfbacks. Often Mor-

gan, Tinker and Emery, making long |

dribbles down the field, thrilled the side-

lines in €xpectation of a goal, but the ball)

was usually lost at the crucial moment.
Noticeable for its success was Philadel-

phia’s defence formation, the goal and
fullbacks forming an almost impassable

barrier. Varsity’s defence was, on the
contrary, very feeble.
Varsity showed more determination, and
Philadelphia was held in check. Litch-
field played a hard and steady game
throughout. H. Harris was called upon to
play. Alexander and Morgan made a
goal each, bringing the final score to 4-3.

GRADUATE NEWS

The Graduate Department held its an-
nual elections this week. The results
were as follows: M. Franklin, permanent
