SONG BY B. M. PROFESSOR
STARTS LANTERN NIGHT TRADITION

1890 First Class to Get Lanterns

LAST INNOVATION IN 1914

The custom of giving lanterns to the
entering class, the lantern symbolism,

j}and the name of the oldest student publi-
ication, “The Lantern”, can all be traced

back to a song by Dr. E. Washburn Hop-
kins, former Professor of Greek at Bryn
Mawr and now teaching at Yale. The

|fateful song was written to the tune of

unity of the forward line so early in the}

}season promise the

development of a/|

the “Lone Fish Ball”.

One line, ‘“‘the only lantern in Bryn
Mawr”, suggested to a member of the first
class, "89, the idea of the lantern as a
suitable emblem for the entering class.

/In the fall of 1886 the Class of 1890 re-

The game started off with a series of |

|rushes by Bryn Mawr, an exchange of full
| back hits, and four successive corners in
|} Lansdowne territory. Lansdowne took
| the ball out quickly, but failed to pass be-
jyond the center of the field.

ceived the first class lanterns, “By the
spring of 1889", says the “Fortnightly

| Thompson at left fullback and H. Harris |

|at left half were the strength of the Bryn
Mawr defence.

| Soon after the fourth corner L. Brown

jand G. Hearne at left inside shot the
|cleanest goal of the game. Varsity
| scored three more times in the first half.
|C. Stevens, G. Hearne, and M. Tyler shot
ithe goals.

Lansdowne first threatened Bryn Mawr
when her right wing, Miss McMahon, took
the ball by M. Thompson and H. Harris
and passed in to the circle. M. Peacock,
right fullback for Bryn Mawr, stopped the
Lansdowne line, hitting to M. Bacon at
center half who passed out of danger.
For a short time at the end of the half
Lansdowne took the offensive. R. Gat-
ling, Varsity goal, stopped a nice try from
left inside and V. Litchfield at right half
checked a team rush which carried the
ball beyond both fullbacks into the Bryn
Mawr circle Miss Katzenstein, Bryn

given a small silver lantern for a watch
charm”.
Lantern giving was originally only an

ls . : .
, incident in the impromptu entertainment

which the Sophomores gave the Fresh-
men. The first Sophomcres put their
Freshmen through a rather unkind oral
quiz and afterwards presented them with
lanterns to light them ‘along the strange
paths of learning. Later the lantern be
came the College emblem and the quiz
dwindled to words of advice and finally
to the “Good Luck” of today. The
Sophomore entertainment, since ‘91's
elaborate presentation of “Alice in. Won-
derland”, became Sophomore Play and
the series of stunts which the Freshmen
gave in return became the present Fresh-
men Show.

“No matter what your views,

If you'll only vote for Hughes,

For Hughes hasn’t got any either.”

This is the attitude frequently taken
by Hughes’ supporters. It is nearly as
short-sighted as the slogan “Anything to
beat Wilson”, for a vote ought always
to rest on a reason, not on a negation.
Instead of reviling Mr. Wilson, we should
consider what the success of Mr. Hughes
would mean. A Republican, writing to
the New York “Times”, admits unwill-
ingly that Mr. Hughes does not lead his
party. “He has submitted to the gag”,
the same writer continues, “and his late
declarations of independence—if such
they really are—have come too late. The
consequence is that, instead of ruling his
party, his party rules him—and the Re-
publican Old Guard rules his party.

“Whatever else we may say about Mr.
Wilson he dominates his party. He is
the least subject to outside pressure of
any man who has been in the White
House for many years, and least of all
can he be approached by any Old Guard,

whether-of Republicanism-or-Democracy.|-

“The Old Guard—Mr.
Hughes speaking—pronounces for a “vig-
orous policy” in Mexico, and loudly de-
clares that our “investors” must be pro-
tected. The disguise is thin. It does
not mean war necessarily, but it does

Republican

mean a resumption of our old hectoring
and domineering attitude, dictated by fi-
nancial interests hungering for conces-
sions and using the Old Guard to pull
their chestnuts out of the fire. It will
all accomplish nothing except to stir up
bad blood.

“When all is said and done, Mr. Wil-
son thinks and speaks in terms of man
and man’s freedom, while Mr. Hughes
thinks and speaks in terms of property
and the laws of property. As between
the two, the friends of America, the
friends of the Allies, and the friends of
humanity should vote for Mr. Wilson”.

Hughes Outlines Constructive Policy

The chief argument against Mr. Hughes
has been that so far he has been merely
destructive and not constructive in his
campaign speeches, but in the statement
made public Sunday by the Republican
National Committee he definitely outlines
his policy and becomes constructive.
Though rightly saying that “No man can
tell in advance what unexpected demands
the next four years will present, but that
one whose conception of the President's
duty rests upon fundamental principles
ean describe with entire sincerity how
the problems of administration would be

{ents



oll “sa: sek Gada iacdghoades
Confidence-inspiring ac

Tub rat duly of he 8
is to choose — a

men who know something about th

‘and who have had previous screed
along that line. Next, and here Mr.
Hughes refutes the Democratic argument
that he is merely a lawyer, he says that
the President is “the administrative head
of the government” as opposed to Mr.
Wilson’s conception of him as the “polit-
ical head and lawmaker”. In describing
his foreign policy he says vaguely that he
will “safeguard the interests of our own
nation”, but remedies this vagueness by
specific application to Mexico. But more
important than any of these statements
is that regarding business and labor. He
not only comes out strongly for the ne-
cessity of a protective tariff to defend our
market when peace in Europe brings a
tremendous competition for labor, but
suggests government supervision and
backing for business enterprises. “I
stand for supervision and control of busi-
ness”, he says, to “further legitimate
business enterprise”.

This outline is really about as definite
as it could be from a man who thoroughly
understands the hazards of the presiden-
tial position. Mr. Wilson speaks most
eloquently on every topic, but his acts
are quite obviously inadequate. But acts
speak louder than words as those who re-
call Mr. Hughes’ record as governor of
New York will say. Let those who are
going to vote for Mr. Wilson because they
think it dangerous to change leaders in
critical times like these, remember that
“lazy” is the term usually applied to
those who are willing to let “well enough
alone”.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)
To the Editor of the “College News”:
I want very much to urge the College
through your columns to attend the po-
litical meeting on Saturday afternoon,
November 4th, at 4.30 o’clock in Taylor.
This is to be the meeting at which outside
speakers will present the arguments of
the various parties. The time of the
meeting is of course unfortunate, but it
could not be arranged for any other time,
for if Lantern Night is put off on account
of rain it will take place that evening.
Very good speakers have been secured
and the best we can do is to show them
the enthusiasm they deserve for coming
out to us. These are the real campaign
speeches for all parties. Everyone is in-
vited. So come and bring your friends
and families.
A. Dorothy Shipley ’17,
President of the Undergraduate Ass’n.

DR. SCUDDER ADDRESSES COLLEGE
SETTLEMENT MEETING



Describes Foundation of Association



Dr. Vida Scudder, one of the earliest
presidents of the College Settlement As-
sociation and professor of English at
Wellesley, addressed a meeting in Taylor
Hall last Saturday evening when she
outlined the foundation and organization
ef the Settlement movement. President
Thomas, Miss Davies and Miss Emerson,
Smith '01, president of the C. S. A. Board,
spoke also.

In tracing-the relationship of the C. S.
A. to college students, Miss Scudder said,
“Settlement work and woman's education
were almost synchronous. When woman
gained access to colleges she first felt
gratitude, then restlessness, then the
duty of passing on her opportunities.
Settlement work is the distinctive gift
which the higher education of women of-
fers the out-working of democracy”.

This meeting was one number on the

Song by B. M. Professor Starts Lantern
Night Tradition

(Continued from Page 1)

(Louise Congdon ’00), “under the maples
in the afterngon, and the presentation of
lanterns in broad daylight would have
been obviously inappropriate. At the
time, it was considered a serious objec-
tion to presenting the play in the after-
noon. But the Sophomores decided to put
a brave face on the matter and choose an
entirely different night for the lantern-
giving. They chose the night when the
Freshmen received their caps and gowns;
’00 wrote a special song for the occasion
and so did '01; and the Freshmen were
ignorant of the fact that a.tradition had
been broken. The next year, ‘01 made a
further change by singing, beside their
new lantern song, ‘Pallas Athene Thea’.
From that day to this the only radical
innovation has been to change the place
of the ceremony from the campus to the
cloister”.

In 1914, instead of writing a new song,
"17 sang '08’s class song. And just as
“Pallas Athene”, ’93’s class song, became
the traditional song for the Sophomores,
“Over the Way to the Sacred Shrine”,
has become the traditional song for the
Freshmen at Lantern Night.

As far as the writer could discover the
only translations of “Pallas Athene” are
the rhymed one by E. Strauss '16 and DB.
Clinton ‘16, printed in a last year’s
“News”, and the following vers libre ren-
dering, written for the “News” by Mabel
O'Sullivan ‘07, a classmate of Dean
Schenk.

Pallas Athene, goddess. of

Learning and power, we come

To thee, to make sacrifice in thy

Honour, O dread goddess,
Hear, O hear!

Look favorably on us, we
Beg; grant us wisdom; go along
With us always! Blessed
Goddess, hear!

Hear, O hear!

Make holy, now our lanterns!
May they always shine clear,
Showing the way and changing
Darkness to light!

Hear, O hear!

EXPERT REORGANIZES TEA ROOM



Gift Shop to be Installed



The tea room of the College Inn has
been placed by President Thomas in the
hands of Miss Frances G. Whitney, who
is to reorganize it upon the basis of effi-
ciency. Miss Whitney, who arrived last
Wednesday, was for eight years the suc-
cessful manager of the “Brown Owl” tea
room at Marblehead, Massachusetts.

Among the sweeping changes inau-
gurated is the addition of a kitchen and
pantry separate from that of the -Inn
proper, which has already been begun.
Miss Whitney plans to run in connection
with the tea room a gift shop, which will
be open in time for the purchase of
Christmas presents.

The tea room is open from 12 to 6.30,
when the doors are locked to newcomers.
It is on a strictly cash basis, except for
“meal tickets”, which may be bought un-
til the Thanksgiving holidays. These
cost $5.25 and will purchase $5.50 worth
of food. Any unused tickets will be_re-
deemed by the management.

SELF-GOVERNMENT PLANS TO HOLD
NEXT CONFERENCE AT BRYN MAWR



The Women’s Intercollegiate Associa-
tion of Student Government will be in-
vited to hold its annual conference at
Bryn Mawr next fall, according to a mo-
tion passed at the Self-Government meet-
ing Monday night.

This year’s conference will be held at
Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts
on November 16th and 17th, and it was
voted that C. Stevens "17, president of
Self-Government, with a Junior member
of the Executive Board, to be appointed
by her, should represent Bryn Mawr.
Miss Stevens appointed M. O’Connor '18.

The proposed change in the order of
Association elections in the spring, so as
to make those of Self-Government first
instead of last, could not be brought up
as it involved amending the constitution
and the necessary number was not pres-
ent.
