Second Movie Show Draws Crowd
THIRD SHOW SATURDAY
The second moving-picture show under
--the-auspices—of—1919 in the gymnasium}:
last Saturday cleared $50 for the Endow-
ment Fund. A third show will be given
next Saturday.
Piano and drum of the Sophomore Or-
chestra supplied music for dancing before
the show began, and supplemented the
films in approved “movie” fashion.
Pathe Current Events showed scenes
from both the Eastern and Western thea-
tres of war, the preparations of the stu-
dents at Carlisle University for the
presidential inauguration, and _ other
scenes of present day interest.
Current Events from Simp City, Texas,
and Soupbone, Minnesota, as shown by
the “Boob Weekly”, an animated cartoon,
drew enthusiastic applause. Another car-
toon, “Hard, Cold Winter’’, chilled the au-
dience to the bone.
“The Bugler of Algiers”, a film en-
dorsed by Sir Gilbert Parker, closed the
program as the feature of the evening.
It was the tale of an Evangeline of the
war of 1871. The most interesting scenes
were those showing her Zouave brother
and lover fighting in Algiers.
A NEW WAY TO PAY OLD DEBTS
Rockefeller Hall has become a zoo—
or a toy shop—and the Freshmen have
found a new way to raise money for the
Endowment Fund. Those returning from
Chapel Sunday evening were confronted
by a veritable jungle of “wild animals I
have known”. Stretching the length of
two corridors beasts of every description
and manufacture, from wooden whales to
woolly rabbits, gazed meekly at their
owners pleading to be redeemed for a
penny. The Endowment Fund was raised
$1.68 by this unusual assemblage.
PETITION TO TRUSTEES RESCINDED
Self-Gov Adopts Executive Board’s
Amendment to Social Engagement Ruling
HOT DISCUSSION PRECEDES ACTION
The most striking aspects of last
Wednesday’s important Self-Government
meeting, called to reconsider the previous
week’s vote to petition the Trustees of
Bryn Mawr to strike out of the Self-Gov-
ernment regulations Resolution I, regard-
ing social engagements with men of the
faculty, were: first, the Association’s
unanimous vote to rescind the motion to
petition the Trustees; second, the Execu-
‘tive Board’s motion that Resolution XI be
amended to read that “Students shall
have no social engagements with the fac-
ulty and staff except as determined by
a liberal interpretation of the Executive
Board subject to the approval of the As-
sociation sitting as a legislative body”;
and third, the final passage of this motion
and its adoption as a resolution. The dis-
cussion was unusually well ordered and
animated.
C. Stevens ’17, president of the Asso-
ciation, opened the meeting by explaining
that the reconsideration of the petition
was the first business to be dealt with and
that if the petition were rescinded the As-
sociation could then consider the four
possible solutions of the question. These
were enumerated as (1) the Board’s
amendment (given above), (2) that Reso-
lution XI stand as amended at the last
meeting (that students make no social
engagements with unmarried men of the
faculty), (3) that Resolution XI be struck
out, (4) that Resolution XI be adopted
as it stood before last week’s amendment
(that students make no social engage-
ments with men of the faculty). This
order of business was followed.

MOVIES OF WILD ANIMALS
Mr. Alfred Collins Will Tell
Crossed the Andes
How He
Mr. Alfred M. Collins, who will speak
Friday evening, February 9th, in the Gym-
nasium, on “Across South America”, is a
hunter and explorer of some note. His
reels are made from his own photographs.
His famous collection of game was exhib-
ited in the Merion Cricket Club at Haver-
ford, and he is now building a house for it
across from the Infirmary. He goes to
Africa this spring.
Mr. Collins was sent to South America
on the Collins-Day South American Expe-
dition by the Field Museum in Chicago
and the Museum of Natural History in
New York. Mr. B. Garnett Day and a
‘naturalist from each museum, were the
‘other members of the party.
The expedition started in 1914 from
|Mollendo, on the west coast of Peru,
| crossed the Andes and travelled down the
Amazon to the coast, reaching civilization
in the spring of 1915. This trip was made
‘through the jungle, 4000 miles, in the
| midst of the rainy season, when most of
ithe ground was inundated.

count of the moisture it is very difficult
to preserve negatives and these are al-
most the only ones which have come out

Mr. Collins was on the original com-
mittee of the Community Center and is a

WALTER DE LA MARE LECTURES
ON MAGIC IN POETRY
Rupert Brooke Described—His Work and
Personality
READS SEVERAL OF OWN POEMS
“He came, you saw, he conquered”. So
Mr. Walter de la Mare, who spoke Friday
on “Magic in Poetry” under the auspices
of the English Club, said of his friend
Rupert Brooke. In spite of the title of
the lecture, the most interesting part was
Mr. de la Mare ’s account of his friend.
He is in this country to raise money for
the Rupert Brooke Memorial. After the
lecture he read several of his own poems.
Mr. de la Mare confessed at the outset
that poetry and magic could not be
closely defined. “Mere words are not
poetry”, he said. “All the best words are
in Webster. Poetry is the accord of
thought and feeling”. The magic in poetry
has a purely personal meaning, and we
can only get the magic in poetry by living
what we read as the poet lives what he
writes. “This magic puts back into the
realm of the mysterious much that Sci-
ence has taken out of it”.
Rupert Brooke a Disciple of John Donne
In introducing Rupert Brooke as the
chief matter of his lecture, Mr. de la Mare
spoke of him as the disciple of John
Donne in his self-revelation. “His poems
are charged with the magic of personality,
he shares his secrets with the world as if
a boy had turned out the astonishing con-
tents of his pockets before going to bed,
He had an alert, serenely eager, questing
face that recalled the Golden Age”. Ru-
pert Brooke’s ‘three best things’ ”, Mr. de
la Mare said, “were ‘to read, to write, and
to live poetry’ ”’.
After the lecture he read some of his
poems from a volume called “Peacock
Pie: for,Children of Every Age”, and also
“The Listeners” and “The Keys of the
Morning”’.
Great Control of His Medium
Mr. de la Mare is identified with the
Georgian movement. In the opinion of
Dr. Savage, “As a poet, Mr. de la Mare
is placed by critics in that group of mod-
ern writers whose work combines with a
deft choice of the actual in material a
significance always deeper, often mys-
tical. His verse is among the most mu-
sical of the present day. A fine ear, an
unusually true sense of the value of lan-
guage as an instrument for delicate poetic
expression, a high skill in weaving sounds
into plain or complex metrical patterns—
all well exemplified in ““The Listeners”—
make up an equipment which has given
him an almost uncanny control over his
The moving pictures which Mr. Collins |
medium. He selects, moreover, in a
marked degree, material which, if one ac-
\cepts his initial terms, as in the “Song of
the Mad Priest”, seems not alone natural
|but inevitable. Mr. de la Mare’s lecture
‘on “Magic in Poetry” is at its best when
jit is taken as a commentary upon his own
|work; and, per contra, his own work,
| which might be called magically trans-
|muted life, is best appreciated in the light
‘of ‘Magic in Poetry’ ”.
Mr. de la Mare came to America to re-
| ceive, as one of Rupert Brooke's heirs, the
; Holland prize from Yale. This prize is to
| be awarded every two years for literature,
jseculpture, painting or some kind of art,
jand was awarded for the first time to
| Rupert Brooke. It consists of a sum of
/money and a medal which Mr. de la Mare
member of the Main Line Citizens’ Asso-|will carry back to Rupert Brooke's
mother.
PHENOMENAL SWIMMING-MEET
Freshmen Smash All individual Records
CHAMPIONSHIP LOST BY SENIORS
AFTER THREE YEARS OF VICTORY
1917, after carrying off the honors in
the swimming-meet for three successive
years and winning more points than any
other class in the first series this year,
was forced to retire before the terrific
crawl of the Freshmén last Friday night.
The Seniors captured the relay and the
dives, as before, but could not better the
speed swim records established by 1920
last week. Making a splendid showing in
every event the Freshmen rapidly caught
up with and passed the Seniors, stealing
9 points from 1917’s former total and 3
from that of the Sophomores. They won
57 points in all.
Individual Championship Tied
The “bright particular stars” were M.
S. Cary ’20 in the first meet and K. Town-
send ’20 in the second, who tied for indi-
vidual championship with 21 points
apiece. M. Brown '20 won third place
with 10 points and E. Dulles 17 came
next, having taken two second places and
one third in the speed swims—9 points.
K. Townsend won both the front swims,
beating E. Dulles and M. Scattergood ’17,
‘each of whom broke the 68 ft. front rec-
ord last week. M. S. Cary took all the
honors in back-swimming.
Diving Better Than Last Week
Higher than the highest number of
points awarded a fancy diver in the meet
last week was the 37.71 given M. Scatter-
good ‘17 for her front somersault, back

SECOND VOCATIONAL CONFERENCE
TO BE ON JOURNALISM
Woman Reporter Discussed by European
Correspondent
The second vocational conference for
women will be held Thursday, February
8th, at the Curtis Building on Independ-
ence Square. The “Woman Reporter”
will be described by Miss Ernestine
Evans, of the New York Evening Post.
Magazine, proof reading and publishing
| will be the subjects. Mrs. Cornelius Ste-
vensen, better known as “Peggy Ship-
|pen’’, will preside.
Miss Evans, now on the Evening Post,
|is a graduate of Chicago University. She
has twice been sent to Europe, once to
|Belgium as correspondent for the New
York Tribune. She also went West on
the Hughes special.
Editorial work will be described by
'Miss Elizabeth Cutting, of the North
American Review, and the technical
journal by Miss Agnes Laut, of the Forum.
The editor of Vogue will speak on the
woman’s paper. Miss Adelaide Neall,
Bryn Mawr ‘06, who does manuscript and
proof reading for the Curtis Publishing
Company, will speak.
The Curtis Publishing Company is giv-
ing the use of their auditorium for the
meeting. This building is well known for
the Maxfield Parrish mural paintings in
the employees’ dining-room. The Curtis
Company has an extensive welfare and
vocational bureau which, instead of dis-
charging unsatisfactory employees exam-
ines their capabilities and gives them
more suitable and congenial occupation.

Last week’s self-government meeting
was particularly well ordered, and the
business was clear to everyone, a state of
affairs which unfortunately seldom exists
in big meetings. Everyone knew more or
less what the possible motions were and
those especially interested in one particu-
lar motion had organized their defence
and had their points at their finger-tips.
They kept right to the point in their
arguments.
This seems to have been due to the fact
that there had been a meeting the week
previous at which the discussion had been
muddled and a motion passed which
nearly everyone regretted soon after the
meeting was over. Between the two
meetings there was ample time for care-
fully weighing one’s own views and for
listening to others expound theirs, and
for getting one’s ideas allied with one or
the other party, either to stick to that
party or to go over to the other side,
knowing what one was leaving and why.
Would it not be possible in the future
whenever a really important measure is
to be decided, to have an informal meet-
ing several days before the regular meet-
ing at which everyone could air her views
and which would enable each to see the
opposite point of view? At this meeting
it should be impossible for any definite
action to take place. It would simply be
an opportunity to hear all sides of the
question in order that at the formal meet-
ing the voting should be thoroughly in-
telligent and not the impulse of the mo-
ment.
Careless—or Callous?
Like Sidney Carton, the public speaker
at Bryn Mawr mounts the platform and
confronts a throng of knitting women.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)
To the Editor of the “College News”:
Some weeks ago many of the students
were so kind as to sew fancy bags for
sale on the German-American Christmas
Mart in New York. Therefore I think
you will publish this letter.
My dear Miss Stappert:
Please accept for yourself and your
kind co-workers our most sincere thanks
for the very charming bags you so kindly
donated to our bazaar. As they were par-
ticularly attractive, they were sold very
rapidly and the proceeds will undoubtedly
have helped to gladden the hearts of
many of the war orphans for whose sake
the entire Christmas Mart was arranged.
Thanking you again for your kind help
in this worthy work, I remain,
Sincerely yours,
Fanny E. Erbsloh, President.
Henrietta Lenner, Secretary.
I would be glad if you would announce
further that Sir Rabindranath Tagore,
the great Indian poet and Nobel prize
winner, has given me about twenty auto-
graphs in order to sell them in benefit
for the suffering war orphans in Germany.
I have reserved a few of them for Bryn
Mawr students or their friends.
Yours truly,
M. A. Stappert,
24 Denbigh.
To the Editor of the “College News”:
In a week of almost continuous cold
weather the skating has been far from
continuous and extremely poor. Appar-
ently the fault lies not with the Athletic
Board who give the directions, but with
those who are expected to see to carrying
out the directions. Inexcusable careless-
ness and stupidity are displayed. For in-
stance, last Tuesday afternoon the man
at the field said that the ice would be
flooded that night; Wednesday morning,
nine o’clock and found that he had just
then finished the flooding and that there
would be no skating until afternoon. Who

HEAD OF. EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
SCORES COLLEGE JOB SEEKERS
“People Want to Get Paid for Nothing” ’
Says Miss Malone, in Personal
_ Interview
“People want to get paid for nothing.
The kind of jobs they want are the kind
‘17 in telling a member of the “News”
staff her experiences as head of the Col-
lege Employment Bureau.
As an example of this easy sort of job
Miss Malone mentioned the agency for
malted milk, which consists of delivering
samples all around the College and then
pocketing ten dollars. Of course, she con-
tinued, agencies are impossible this year
because no one will buy anything unless it
is for the Endowment Fund, but next year
there will be a certain number available.
Besides the desire for easy jobs, Miss Ma-
lone commented on the low standard of
work done by applicants to the Employ-
ment Bureau.
“The standard of work’, she _ said,
“should be as high in College as outside
College. Persons should feel as respon-
sible to the Employment Bureau as they
would to a regular employer. Instead,
they require constant supervision and it
never occurs to them that the people that
are paying for them want the best pos-
sible work and are entitled to get it.
On the other hand, those who want work
done usually come at the last minute and
then we can’t give them the best service”.
But, she concluded, that will never be
rectified.
Loan Committee Planned
About plans for new kinds of work,
Miss Malone was more optimistic. The
Bureau thinks of establishing a loan com-
mittee which will receive books, hockey
sticks, and so on, from outgoing students
who no longer have any use for them and
sell or rent them to incoming students.
Such a committee would probably con-
sist of one or two students who would
finance and organize the undertaking
themselves and keep all the profits. Such
a committee would benefit both the stu-
dents who ran ‘it and the students who
want second-hand things. Miss Malone
thought students would be willing to co-
operate in giving their old books to sucha
committee when they consider how little
they make by selling them as individuals
and how much it could make for one or
two persons who need the money.

formed a theory as to what is worth
while”, said Bishop Lloyd in Chapel Sun-
day night, “otherwise life is dissipation”.
“We had come to a place where we
thought we knew everything and the re-
sult has been the most awful catastrophe
of civilization”, he said. “Now anything
anyone thought worth while is being
doubted. The task is greater than any-
one can accomplish. We must make the
effort to believe what Jesus said. Christ
said, ‘I am the way, the truth and the
life’. He must determine our sense of
values.
“Christ never asked for a disciple’, he
went on to say. “He said to those in
doubt, ‘If you'll let me, I’ll help you; to
those in trouble, if you want me I’ll com-
fort you’. Test Christ as the answer to
your questions”.
“You are here supposedly for the pur-
pose of learning how to use yourselves”,
he said, applying his thought more spe-
cifically. ‘You think there will be time
to think when you leave College, but you
have more quietness now than you will
ever have again. In this most subtle of
things, which we describe as human, why
_|do you go to those who confessedly say
that they can only judge those things that
can be measured with a measuring stick?
There are some of the biggest men to-day
who don’t know that they are bigger than
material things. It is pitiful. You have
got to have a theory of values and you
must choose whether it shall be the
Christ or some one who has learned some
of the things he has said”.
DR. MUTCH TO LEAD BIBLE CLASS
Will Begin After Mid-Years
The first of a series of six Bible classes
on “The Relation of Christ to Modern
Times”, to be led by Dr. Andrew Mutch,
of the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church,
will be held in Room F, Taylor, Wednes-
day, February 7th, at 7.30. Dr. Mutch is
best known to the Presbyterians in Col-
lege, but it is largely due to the impres-
sion made upon the College as a whole
when he preached in Chapel: last— year,
that he was secured for this series of
classes. He has been instrumental in
establishing the Community Center in
Bryn Mawr.

GIVE YOUR CLOUD A SILVER LINING
“If you can’t have your merits, take
cold cash; surely your merits are worth a
quarter”, say the Freshmen posters luring
on doubtful undergraduates to ensure
their examinations for the sake of the
Endowment Fund.
By the wily scheme the insurance com-
pany can not lose. One-third of the re-
ceipts goes to the Endowment Fund and
the rest is divided among the lucky—or
unlucky—who fail to get eight hours of
merit at mid-years. ;
Some especially fearful have ensured
themselves many times and are already
counting on the large sums they will re-
ceive. A single policy is twenty-five
cents. About a hundred and fifty people
have ensured.

1920 DOUBLES NUMBER OF POINTS
TOWARD ATHLETIC CHAMPIONSHIP
With K, Townsend and M. S. Cary tying
for individual championship of the swim-
ming-meet, five records broken, and seven
B. M.’s awarded, the Freshmen have pro-
sressed 73 points toward the class ath-
letic championship. Their total is now
131, more than double that of their near-
est rivals, 1917, runners-up in the meet
and holders of 58 points toward the cup.
1919 comes third with 44 points, third
place in the swimming-meet having
netted them 10. 1918 has won 10 points
in all. In detail the Freshmen’s winnings
toward the championship were: First
place in the meet, 20 points, 25 for five
new records established and 28 for seven
B. M.'s. 1917’s points were: 15 for sec-
ond place in the swimming-meet and 5
for breaking the class relay record.
YALE TO FOUND VARSITY CLUB
Celebration of Harvard’s Defeat
At a meeting at the Yale Club in New
York of all the men who have gotten
their letter, it was decided to found a
Varsity Club to which any man who has
his “Y” in any branch of college sport is
eligible. “Cupid” Black’s “big, blue
team” was the guest of honor. In view of
last year’s victory over Harvard this was
considered a _ particularly appropriate
time for the founding of such a club.
For many years such a club has been
under consideration, but the plans came
to a head when a committee was elected.
It was decided to use the coach’s house
.|in New Haven as a temporary club house
until a permanent one could be built.
Discussion Meetings Satisfactory
Meetings for discussion, open to all, are
held in 56 Rockefeller Hall every Fri-
day night at 7.30. They are entirely satis-
factory, according to those who attend
them. The Peace Note, the Adamson Bill,
and Education have been discussed so far.
The subject for this week is Immigration.
About a dozen students attend every week
and join in the lively debate on the issues
raised.

MODERN ART STUDIES TONE
_ ct
Miss Morrison Discusses Painting ‘of |
__. To-day -
“What the moderns have done for art
is to show the transparency of solid fig-
ures under certain aspects of light”, said
Miss Gertrude Morrison, of the Baldwin
School,.in speaking to the class in Modern
Art last Friday. The lecture was illus-
trated by slides of the work of Monet,
Sisley, Degas and as far back as Tiepolo,
Rembrandt and Tintoretto.
Between the 15th and 16th centuries,
Miss Morrison said, a change came over
painting. The interest shifted. Before
that a man drew a line around an idea
and studied the local color; after that he
turned to the study of light and shadow
and the values of tone in between. “We
cannot demand the tactile values of the
Primitives”, she said, “from a painter who
is trying for light”.
In discussing the quandary into which
art has got at present, with its vast num-
bers of easel pictures claiming notice
only for their brilliant technique and
pleasant subject and painted only for ex-
hibition, Miss Morrison said that artists
must turn to decoration. But the case is
not hopeless. With a change in economic
conditions the whole basis of art will
change, even the building of houses, and
it will all become more decorative.
HOUSE PARTY AT SPRING STREET
Students and Alumnz Invited to Banquet
Spring Street Neighborhood House has
invited any of the students who have been
to Bates Camp and others who are inter-
ested to come to a banquet and reception,
and to spend Saturday and Sunday nights
of Mid-Years vacation at Spring Street.
The house party will last from February
3rd to February 5th.
The girls from the Butterick Pattern
Factory, the Missionary Society, and
other friends who have been at Bates,
will be at the reception. The students
will also have a-chance to see the nursery
babies and the kindergarten children and
to visit some of the families in their
homes.
Miss Wiggins, the resident in charge, is
arranging for the house party. The stu-
dents will probably occupy the large sun
parlor of Varick House, the new girls’
dormitory and sleeping porch. Miss
Deems, who has had charge of the Bates
House for the last two years, and Miss
Murphy, the housekeeper, will be at the
reception Saturday night.
Miss Applebee, Ann Davis '17 and the
others who are going will probably leave
Bryn Mawr together on Saturday noon.
Arrangements are being made through A.
Davis. Any who wish to go to the recep-
tion must let her know by January 27th.
UNDERGRAD TO DISCUSS
MEN’S COMING TO PLAYS |
Meeting Before “David Garrick”
“There will be a meeting of the Under- |
graduate Association before the 1913 per- |
formance of ‘David Garrick’ on February
10th”, said Miss Shipley, President of the
Undergraduate Association, “to discuss
the acceptance of certain conditions on
which President Thomas will allow men
to come to class plays”.
lowed to come, and men accompanied by
one of the faculty, or the wife of one of
the faculty, an alumna, former student, or
student. Additional measures will be dis-
cussed at the meeting. These arrange-
ments, if accepted, will only be a trial in
any case.
Board to Meet Faculty
“President Thomas is anxious”, said
Miss Shipley, “to have the undergrad-
uates discuss among themselves the ad-
visability of having the Undergraduate
Advisory Board meet with a committee of
the faculty to consult on courses”
The general plan |
is that the faculty and staff will be al- |

passed unanimously after a short discus-
sion, as public opinion had been prepared.
by President Thomas’s speech of that
morning and by the News of the same
day to accept the statement of the Board
that a petition, inasmuch as Resolution XI
was part of a mutual agreement between
the Trustees and the Association, was not
only irregular but was a virtual surrender
of the freedom of self-government. C.
Hall ’'17 and M. O’Connor 718 held that
this had been the attitude of the Board
in both meetings. :
The passing of the Board’s motion that
Resolution XI be amended to read that
students have no social engagements with
the faculty and staff except as determined
by a liberal interpretation of the Executive
Board, subject to the approval of the As-
sociation sitting as a legislative body, in-
volved hot discussion. The word “lib-
eral’, the Board declared, was inserted
to act as a check on future Boards who
might wish to tighten up the rule. It was
objected that if the whole Association
could not decide on the right interpreta-
tion, the Board could not, but the answer
—that five persons who had studied the
question could more easily come to a
conclusion than four hundred who had
not—seemed convincing, especially since
the interpretation must, by the wording
of the motion, be presented to the Asso-
ciation and can be easily voted down if
deemed illiberal.
The Board’s motion was finally passed
by a majority of 38 and was then unani-
mously adopted as a resolution. The in-
terpretation of thée\Executive Board as re-
gards exceptions to the Resolution will be
laid before the Association as soon after
Mid-Years as possible. Neither the Reso-
lution, as amended, nor the Board’s inter-
pretation, if accepted by the Association,
become valid till presented to the Trus-
tees.
