SERVIA MUST NOT BE CRUSHED



Mrs. Pankhurst Tells of Her Work in
England and of the Servian Women



“The world owes more to small nation-
alties than the large ones realize’, said
Mrs. Pankhurst to a large audience in
Taylor Hall on Friday afternoon, Febru-
ary 25th. For this reason, she said, she
came to America to plead for relief work,
by which the Servian nation might be
saved from annihilation.

“We want the moral support of Amer-
ica,” she said, “for small countries,”
The gallant spirit which has made Servia
fight for liberty ‘in order that she may
civilize herself’, she continued, makes it
imperative that Servia should not be
merged with any other nation. Through
three disastrous wars, Mrs. Pankhurst
said, the Servian women have taken the
place of men, doing all the civil work,
and in some cases even fighting; besides
this they have kept alive the folk-lore,
music and poetry of their people. She
pointed out that France in her impover-
ished state, had given the island of Cor-
sica for the Belgian refugees, and that it
is the duty of America to justify her neu-
trality by keeping them alive.

Describes Her Own Work During the War
Perhaps the most interesting part of

of her own work during the war, in re-

tute methods for training women to take
places in business and in finance, so that



| satisfy their great desire to serve their
‘country. She also described the munition
| factory, which she had seen in France,
where women were skillfully taking the

‘places of men. it was this sight, she said,

| which had inspired her on her return to.

England to organize a procession of 5000
/ women who offered their services to the
country for the making of ammunition
|and were accepted.

| The war, Mrs. Pankhurst concluded,

| has taught men to appreciate the good

to us women faith in our brothers”.

Applebee and several of the Alumne& |

anniversary of the beginning of the Chris- |

tian Association, the usual nine-thirty

meeting will be held in Rockefeller Hall, |

and will be intended as an opening of
the conference and celebration. N. Mc-
Faden, "17, will address all committee
members and all Freshmen.

Dr. Coffin, of the Madison Avenue Pres-
byterian Church of New York, one of the
most noted speakers at summer confer-
ences, will conduct a special service on
Friday evening in Taylor. Dr. Coffin is

who will lead the Sunday evening service,
in conducting the conference.

On Saturday afternoon Miss Appplebee
will give a tea in the Gymnasium at
which the members of the C. A. will meet
the speakers. That evening a mass meet-
ing will be held in Taylor. President

lead special vespers service. The speaker
for that evening will be Dr. Howland.

1918 won the first game of the water-
‘polo finals from 1919 with a score of 3-0.
| The game was very different from the
jones between 1917 and 1918, lacking their
‘fast playing and good headwork. The
| play was slow on both sides, 1919 not
| forcing 1918 to its utmost in order to win,

NOTED SOCIOLOGIST TO SPEAK



Dr. Steiner Will Preach Sunday Sermon

The sermon Sunday night will be
preached by Dr. Edward Steiner, Pro-
fessor of Applied Christianity at Grinnell
College. Dr. Steiner has made an ex-
tended study of group and race psychol-
ogy and is one of the leading sociologists
of to-day. Among his works on immigra-
tion are, “On the Trail of the Immigrant”
and “The Immigrant Tide”. He is a
noted authority on the subject, having
devoted much time improving conditions
at Ellis Island.

Influenced by Tolstoi

A native of Vienna, Dr. Steiner was
educated in the Jewish religion. As a
young man in college, however, he came
to know the works of Tolstoi, which so
impressed him that he determined to
know Tolstoi himself. He set out for
Russia with his pockets empty except for
a letter of introduction. “I went”, he
says, “to see the man who taught religion
in terms I understood, and which I
thought I could accept and practise”. Dr.
Steiner’s book, “‘Tolstoi the Man”, came
directly out of this visit and records his
impressions of Tolstoi, and Tolstoi’s influ-
ence on him.
| Thirty years ago Dr. Steiner came to
| America, where he has made his way
| against tremendous difficulties, working
jat first as a labouring man in mills and



_ factories.

'1917 HEADED TOWARDS ALL-ROUND
ATHLETIC CHAMPIONSHIP

1917 leads in the race for all-round ath-
‘letic champion by 68 points, having 108,
| while their nearest rival, 1918, has 44
/points. The points which have been won
fare:
1917-——-First and second team champion-
‘ship in Hockey; first team doubles cham-
|pionship, second team singles champion-
‘ship and College champion in Tennis;
‘swimming championship and second indi-
vidual place, 9 B.M.’s and 2 records.

1918—Third team championship in
Hockey; first team singles championship
‘in Tennis; third place in the swimming
|meet and third individual place;
B.M.’s; 1 record.

1919-——Second place in the swimming
/meet and first individual place; 6 B.M.’s;
1 record.

1916—4 B.M.’s.
Totals—1916, 4; 1917, 107; 1918, 44;
1919, 31.

on Saturday afternoon and, passing the

vantage in the gallery. Unconscious of
the spectators, the busy Freshmen below
kept on with their rehearsal. Suddenly
the strains of “Here Comes Tootsie”
stopped. Three stalwart Freshman, with
determined bearing, hurried from the
room. The visitors, abashed, slunk down
| the stairs, only to be confronted by the

R. CHENEY’S RESIGNATION BRINGS
UP QUESTION OF SELF-GOV POLICY



The question of accepting the resigna-
tion of R. Cheney, '18, from the office of
Treasurer of the Students’ Association
for Self-Government was still undecided
at the end of the long meeting on Monday
night. After hearing Miss Cheney’s rea-
sons for resignation and the five possible
grounds for refusing or accepting this res-
ignation as outlined by the President, M.
Russell, '16, the Association voted to con-
sider, for better understanding of the
main question, the attitude on honor-
reporting.

Reporting Voted Not Compulsory

As a result of the whole discussion it
was decided, first, that members of the
Association other than the officers should
not be required to report offenses of in-
dividuals against Self-Government. Sec-
ondly, the motion that officers of the As-
sociation should be required to report all
offenses which came to their notice
through direct or indirect evidence was
defeated. It was stated, however, that
these resolutions did not regard testi-
mony requested under Resolution III,
which states that the Board can require
testimony and inflict punishment for re-
fusal of same. This-action of the Asso-
ciation removed every check upon offend-
ers except their own sense of honor and
the possibility of others reporting them.
| It was said that such a radical result
| had been brought about by the confusion
jof a split ballot and not by the general
| desire of the Association. C. Kellen, '16,
| therefore moved that all members of the
Association, both as officers and as indi-
| viduals, be held responsible for seeing
| infringements reported, but, since such a
| notion involved the repealing of the reso-
lutions ‘already passed, it was not in
| order,



Water-Polo Adjourns Meeting

It was felt that in the absence of the
| persons who had left the meeting on ac-
| count of water-polo no important business
|should be decided and the meeting was
jadjourned. There will be a second meet-
‘ing to reconsider the question of the res-

4 ignation on Thursday or Monday evening.

There seem to have been three distinct
parties at the Self-Government meeting
on Monday night. Some, the Radicals,
called loudly for “individual liberty’.
They were Utopians unwilling to face
the fact that the highest standard of
ethics is not universal. Those who have
low standards will break rules, deter-
mined from the first not to report. To
allow such license is to sacrifice to an
exaggerated ideal of individual liberty the
good of the community.

The second class were oligarchs. They
realized the need of government, but
wished the responsibility of this to de-
volve on a few. Many of these took their
stand from pure laziness. They them-
selves were unwilling to report infringe-
ment of the law, therefore they would
elect officers who would bear the burden
of unpleasant duties.

The third class combined the demo
cratic ideal of equal responsibility with a
practical method of gaining good govern-
ment. They showed the absurdity of the
question-begging phrases, “spy” and “tell-
tale’—and showed that responsibility to
the Association means more than respon-
sibility for personal conduct.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)
News Fails to Distinguish Academic
Honors

To the Editor of ‘‘The College News’’:

In the issue of “The College News” for
February 17th, I find, for the third time
since( mid-April, an announcement of the
award to me of a Fellowship. Now “The
News” never has been very strong on
grasping distinctions in academic honors;
for instance, Miss Greene, the present
fellow in Semitic languages, has recently
been heralded as holding a scholarship;
and among the items recorded in the ca-
reer of one of the British scholars, one
reads Mathematical TRIPES (sic!);
s0 what wonder that after three an-
nouncements “The News” has not yet
spoken exactly of this foreign Fellowship.
The announcements in question are as
follows:

April. 22, 1915 “a prize of $800
from the American School of Classical
Research”. (Note the magnificent if
meaningless title of the mythical institu-
tion!)

April 29, 1915 “the Research

Fellowship given by the American School |

of Archeology at Athens”.
February 17, 1916
ship in the American
Athens”.
Being a person averse to unnecessary |
attentions, I have never asked to have
any announcement made of this award,

“a Fellow-
Academy at

even though I am proud of being the first |
woman to hold the Fellowship. But since |

“The News” loves to dwell on the sub-
ject, I desire to prevent further garbling |

of the truth. Will you please state that

examination, awarded by the Archeolog-
ical Institute of America to be held in the
American School of Classical Studies in
Athens.

In conclusion, may I suggest that when
“The News” desires to report academic
honors it make some effort to learn from
authoritative sources just what may be
the nature of such honors.

Eleanor Ferguson Rambo.



Individual Liberty and College Principle
Ty the Editor of ‘The College Néws’’:

One of the principles of the authorities
of the College which seems to be little re-
garded by the students now-a-days is that
Sunday be kept as a day of rest. No as-
sociation meetings, nor academic appoint-
ments are allowed (not even ice cream
may be delivered at the College). No
regular exercise can be taken on Sunday,
the tennis courts, athletic fields, and
swimming pool may not be used. The
Christian Association has always stood
for the observance of Sunday, but feels
there is need of reminding its members
of its position. The Christian Associa-
tion Board therefore takes this means of
stating its firm conviction on the subject.
The board recognizes the right of the in-
dividual to liberty in her views and ac-
tion. Committee meetings, board meet-
ings, try-outs, and rehearsals for plays,
however, place an obligation on some who
might not otherwise work on Sunday.
Even if none of the members of a com-
mittee disapprove of such a meeting, the
committee should think of the precedent
they are establishing and the principle of
the College they are disregarding. Sun-
day is becoming more and more a day for
doing odd jobs instead of a day for rest
and worship. We should like to urge as
a board that the members of the Chris-
tian Association realize that Sunday is
one of their greatest opportunities “to
strengthen their religious life”.

SELF-GOV SCORES PEM WEST



Fire Drill Follows '18’s Victory

Routed from the lethargy which fol-
lowed the excitement of the water polo,
Thursday night, by the sound of the fire
bell, Pembroke West assembled wearily
in the front hall. E. Holcombe, ’17, in the
double capacity of fire captain and head |
proctor, merely remarking on towels
which were not wet, passed over the fire- |
drill and took up the cudgels of Self-Gov- |
ernment against Pembroke West.

She said that the Self-Government
Board had recently summoned her and
complained not only of the noisiness of
Pembroke West, but also of its failure
to report the breaking of rules. Miss Hol-
combe said she thought these faults were
due to general carelessness rather than to
‘particular individuals. The proctors have
been more alert and the Hall somewhat |
quieter this week. |

The Christian Association Board will |
hold special meetings every morning at |

of the regular board prayer meetings.
These are open to everyone. They will

IN PRELIMINARIES



16 and '19 Slow Until Second Half

~



The second water polo match between
1916 and 1919 came off on Thursday night,
ending in a victory for 1919, with a score
of 3-5. During the first half F. Howell
scored 1 goal, and L. Peters 2 goals
for 1919, and a good defense was put up
by A. Thorndike, who also made a pretty
pass from goal. It was not till the second
half that the game showed any fast play-
ing. 1916 pulled up splendidly. They
left their defensive position and, playing
more on the offensive, made three points.
The ball was worked up to the other goal
where Hitchcock made a good stop and a
pretty pass nearly the length of the pool.
F. Howell threw one more goal for 1919,
which brought up the final score to 3-5.

1918, by defeating 1917 4-3, won their

teams played hard and well. M. Scat-
tergood got the ball on the first throw
off and immediately worked near '18’s
goal, where H. Wilson madé a splendid
stop. T. Howell took it down the pool
again, but A. Davis saved a goal. Neither
side scored until almost the end of the
first half, when T. Howell threw a spec-
tacular goal from the middle of the pool.
In the very beginning of the second half
G. Flanagan made a goal after a splendid
throw to her by M. Strauss, and soon
after T. Howell made another goal. 1917
renewed their energy, M. Willard making
their first goal. Right after this V. Litch-

to the light and shade, the unfailing



comic or pathetic “relief” of American
and English plays, a pure Greek tragedy,
such as the “Hippolytus” of Euripides,
can be little less than stunning in its
effect. Mrs. Penelope Wheeler, in recit-

citers: that of providing by change of
tone and bearing the variation, naturally
given by any company of actors, between
the different characters. Mrs. Wheeler
only partially succeeded in this. Her
Nurse was a littie too tragic and at times
hard to distinguish from her Phedra.
Hippolytus and Theseus were also not
sufficiently different persons. Only in
the character of the goddess Artemis did

Radicalism







Several of the undergraduates of Co- |

| first issue of a new monthly magazine,

radicalism and, in particular, of its bitter |
|attack on the present system of educa-

HEAD OF GLEN MILLS FABM SCHOOL | |

TO DISCUSS SOCIAL GUARDIANSHIP ||

Mrs. Falconer Pioneer in Work



The old House of Refuge for Girls in
Philadelphia, with its barred windows
and its uniformed inmates, to which de-
linquent girls were committed, has been
changed into the Glen Mills Farm School,
at Darlington, Pennsylvania, with its sys-
tem of self-government and its small cot-
tages, by the work of Mrs. Falconer, who
is to speak to Miss Kingsbury’s class on
Social Problems on March 8th and 15th.

Guardianship” and “Reform Schools for
Girls in Relation to Social Guardianship”.

The Glen Mills School is composed of
500 girls, sent up from the courts, ranging
in age from six to twenty-one years.
They live in ten large cottages. No uni-
forms are worn in the school. Except in
the two receiving houses there is self-
government, and the girls are given the
freedom of the grounds. In spite of this
freedom there are few attempts to escape
and those who show themselves untrust-
worthy in this respect are deprived of
their privileges of self-government.

The girls themselves take care of the
greenhouse, the cattle, and the crops of
the large farm on which the school is
located, under the direction of the offi-
cers, who are all college graduates, many
of them from the Cornell Agricultural
School. There is half-day school for most
of the girls, though a great majority of
them are somewhat mentally deficient.
After leaving the school the girls are on
probation and are generally under super-
vision for some time. Many of them go
into housework.
