PHILADELPHIA ALUMNZ GIVE
CONCERT TO COLLEGE
Chicago Opera Company Star Will Sing
Miss Marcia Van Dresser of the Chicago
Opera Company will give a recital in Tay-
lor Hall on Saturday at 8 p.m. This re-
cital is a gift to the students by the Phila-
delphia branch of the Alumnez Associa-
tion in recognition of their work for the
Endowment Fund. No admission will be
charged.
Miss Van Dresser was born in Memphis,
Tennessee, but her first training was in
Chicago. She gave up opera for several
years to go on the stage, playing first in
Augustine Daly’s company where she was
very successful in the “Great Ruby”, an
English melodrama. She also played the
title role in Otis Skinner’s production of
“Francesca da Rimini”.
She left the stage and went to Europe |
where she studied for nine years in Paris, |
Berlin and Munich. At the outbreak of
FIRST WHITE MEN TO CROSS TRAIL
Mr. Collins Describes Travel in
Amazonian Jungle
GOT *500 SPECIMENS OF BIRDS
“We crossed the jungle on a trail never
before used by a white man”, said Mr.
Alfred Collins, Saturday evening, in his
lecture “Across South America”. Mr. Col-
lins was one of the commanders of the
sent out by the Field Museum of Chicago
and the Museum of Natural History in
New York to collect specimens of game
and birds from the Andes and the jungle
of the upper Amazon. The chief naturalist
of the party was George K. Cherrie from
the Museum of Natural History in New
York who was a member of the Roosevelt
expedition. The 1500 specimens of birds
went to New York, the mammals to Chi-
cago.
Mr. Collins began his lecture with a
contour map of South America and ex-
plained the net-work of tributaries to the
Amazon all across central Brazil and the
prevailing winds from the Atlantic bring-
ing moisture to the east slope of the
Andes. These conditions, he said, made
it very difficult to preserve photographs.
His are the only successful ones ever
brought out of that country and were
colored in Philadelphia under his personal
supervision.
Rare Game and Curious Boats
The expedition started from Mollendo,
Peru. Besides showing photographs of
the actual journey, Mr. Collins gave pic-
tures of the Ilama, the common beast of
burden who refuses to carry more than
sixty pounds, the vicuna from whose coat
the popular vicuna wool is made, and the
very rare guanaco of which the only
|mounted specimens are in the Field Mu-
seum. The curious native boats made of
reeds used on Lake Titicacca were showed
also. These demand constant bailing and
contrast with the lake steamer which was
carried up the mountains piecemeal on
the backs of Ilamas before the time of
the railroad.
After descending the eastern slope of
the Andes and crossing the jungle where
they had to wade waist deep in water a
great part of the time and living mainly
on apes and bananas the = expedition
reached the Amazon and came down it by
boat to Trinidad, “the most unhealthy
town in the world”, Mr. Collins said. As

TWO PLACES ON
“NEWS” BOARD OPEN
Business Competition Starts To-day
The College News competition for two
assistant business managers from 1919
opens to-day. Competitors should apply
to the Business Manager, V. Litchfield ’17,
at 38 Pembroke East. Office hours daily
except Sunday from 7.15 to 8 p. m. All
names must be handed in by 8 p. m. of
February 22nd. The competition will last
three weeks, the two winners becoming
members of the Board with a share in the
News profits and a chance of becoming
Business Manager in their Senior year.
The position of assistant business man-
ager on an amateur newspaper offers val-
uable business training in cataloguing,
accounting, getting ads, etc., and gives
an opportunity for the use of initiative
and common sense. Though the actual
job in this case is purely business, the
manager sees both ends of the work and
knows the editorial side at least in
theory.

colour which will illustrate the lecture
represent a triumph in slide making. The
task of preparing these pictures for the
screen with any degree of accuracy has
has been most difficult, and has only been
rendered possible by the skill and pa-

operation and criticism of experienced
students of Italian Art.

“David Garrick”, a comedy of the 18th
century written by T. W. Robertson, was
charmingly given by 1913 for the second
time in their career, with B. Nathans
Churchward as the star, last Saturday
night in the gymnasium for the benefit
of their class Endowment Fund. Four
years ago it was '13’s Senior play with
the same stage manager and four of the
same actors, including Mrs. Churchward
;as David Garrick. :
To the stage manager, M. Blaine, a
great deal of credit is due when the diffi-
‘culties of getting together an alumne
_cast and rehearsing them with any degree
of regularity are considered. The play
itself is not easy to present since it: is
full of the old-fashioned Soliloquies and
asides which are so hard to put across to
a modern audience; also it had to be cut
down a great deal. On account of this
remodelling the last act seemed a little
disconnected, but on the whole the play
ran smoothly.
David Garrick’s Big Scene in Act I!
The fascinating rendering of the part
of David Garrick by Mrs. Churchward
will not soon be forgotten. In the big
scene in the second act particularly, her

“Tl Beato Angelico” is the latest of a | acting was powerful, and indeed her
“talents are such that even the most tal-
ented must say they are talents”. An
admirable foil to her vivid acting was
provided by M. V. Tongue as the stolid
Mr. Simon Ingot, the city merchant, who
was “such a different man from Shakes-
peare”. His dinner guests whom his
esthetic daughter Ada (F. Ross) con-
demned as “City people”, were ideally
the general public.

That Liberal Education
A part of the College course not down
in the Calendar but as unavoidably under-
gone by college students as Required
English is the period of intense disgust
with a liberal education in general and
a college education in particular. The
conviction is generally reached about the
beginning of Junior year that college has
been grossly over estimated. One asks,
with the same bitterness with which one
faced an English Reader over a Fresh-
man critical paper, “What good is it all
going to do me anyway”? The discovery
that that most ardent exponent of a
liberal education, Plato, is an “‘intellec-
tual aristocrat” and that his theories are
“very pretty but very dangerous” seems
to shake the whole structure of learning.
One quotes one’s favorite professor im-
pressively: “Bryn Mawr isa direct train-
ing for-refined leisure”, and finds, if one
looks for a job, that he is right.
Neither the reality nor the value of
this experience is to be belittled, but to
those who are in the midst of it there
may be held out a word of hope. College
may not make one omniscient. But in
four years it is impossible not to learn
something, and, far more important, one
learns where to learn more. And in re-
gard to college as training for paid posi-
tions other than teaching, successful
alumne are its best advertisements.
Those Bryn Mawr students who heard
Adelaide Neal! ¢(Bryn—Mawr_'06) at the
recent conference on journalism, speak
on her work as Associate Editor of the
Saturday Evening Post, were convinced |
“a college degree is a}
at last that:
mighty nice little concrete thing to carry
around when you're looking for a job”.
Signs of Efficiency
The fact that the Undergraduate Asso-
ciation voted to have a committee of
three audit the accounts of the associ-
ation and of any committee which han-
dles' a large-amount of money such as
the Endowment Fund, Lost and Found,
Employment Bureau, ete. argues an in-
creasing propensity to be business-like on
the part of the undergraduates. It is
greatly to be commended. But why not!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
nor THE COLL
the skating field seem to be under the
spell of certain illusions. First, as to the
lower hockey field: that you can pour|
_| water on a-sponge well drained from be-
neath and surrounded‘ by natural exits;
and that by hastily throwing up a porous
dyke here and there you can make the
water reach and stay at a level for skat-
ing. Now the early Britons used to make
a kind of concrete floor for their
“Dew pond on the height
Unfed, that never fails.”
But even if you did that, the amount of
water that you could afford to run in
through a hose would not be enough to
secure good ice. Apart from indoor
rinks, which are another matter, you can-
not have good skating in this climate un-
less the water is at least two feet deep
all over. Whenever there was good skat-
ing on the old athletic field, and it was
very often good ,it was where the water
had reached a considerable depth at the
lower end of the field. Where it was
shallow we skated as we did last week on
crackling ice spread thin over grass and
mud. In fact, the only reason why we
could do with the old field what we can
not do with the new is that nature meant
it for a pond and supplied the water.
Secondly, the half-abandoned illusion
as to the upper hockey field: that you
can spread water like butter on a dry
raised surface and expect it to stay there
for your convenience throughout a rapid
and incalculable succession of frosts and
thaws. Now you might use the upper
field, though with unremitting labour and
expense, if you could count on six weeks
of steady frost. But in the winter climate
of Bryn Mawr, there is only one thing that
you can count on: That when, after
heart-breaking effort you have your ice,
the sky will darken; there will be no skat-
ing to-morrow, and all is to do over again.
The only remedy for this is to do what
Haverford College did many years ago
and make a pond by using the brook and
the low ground which we have on the
campus. It could be run out early in the
spring as at Haverford (where they graze
it in summer—that strikes me as very
efficient) or it could be a permanent pond
in which there would be fish (nature sup-
plies them) to keep down the mosquitoes.
This is the sort of pond that abounds
through this countryside and it does not
breed mosquitoes. It need not be larger
than that which Mr. Clothier has lately
made near-his-house-on-the road between
the trolley bridge and the County Line at
Radnor, where there was excellent skat-
ing to-day, when our field was closed and
in deep mourning. I do _ believe that
women will ultimately be able to tackle
any job. But we don’t want skating ulti-
mately; we want it now. And when I
see the volume of water pouring over the
dam and running to waste below Yarrow,
with the wasted hollow behind it; and
then contemplate the expensive trickle
that perseveres in not filling the hockey-
field a few yards away, I feel it safer to
reserve my opinion of feminine thrift and
ingenuity.
Wilmer Cave Wright.
January 24, 1917.
To the Editor of the “College News”:
In reply to the “Skating Enthusiasts’”
“College News” of January
| 24th, I should like to submit the following
facts: —
1. Since January 12th we have had
skating on the following days, which are
as nearly continuous as weather condi-
tions have permitted: January 12, 13
(14th Sunday), 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 (storm
21st, Sunday 22nd), 25, 26, 27. The skat-
| ing has also been as good as it has been
| possible to make it and every attention
(The editors do not hold themselves responsible | has been given to it by the Superintend-
for opinions expressed in this column)
To the Editor of the “College News”:
Among the punishments
cruel and unnecessary is that inflicted on
the Danaids, who, for their sins, had to
pour water in a sieve. But at least they
had sinned and they did not have to pay |
for the water. The Danaids who manage
accounted |
lent of Buildings and Grounds and the
| men under him.
2. The Athletic Board had given no di-
irections as to how or when the field
|should be flooded when the “Skating En-
| thusiasts’ " letter was written. The first
| decision of this kind was made on Satur-
| aay. January 27th, after I had written to
EGE NEWS
the Outdoor Manager of the Athletic As-
sociation and asked the wishes of the
Athletic Board in this respect. _
-| 3, The most inexdct statement in the
carelessness and stupidity are displayed”.
I understand that the Athletic Associa-
tion fee for skating is $1.00. Is it not
rather “careless” for those who have had
the opportunity. of skating eleven (11)
times for $1.00 to assume that they can
skate indefinitely for that sum; and is it
not rather “stupid” for them to make no
effort to learn the reasons for the condi-
tions they criticise? It costs the Athletic
Association a goodly sum for an artificial
skating pond, so when we found that it
was exceedingly expensive to flood the
surface of the field after 10 p. m., once
only we tried flooding it at 6 a.m. We
had observed that on two-thirds of the
days since skating started it was colder
at 6 a. m. than at midnight and we knew
that there was not likely to be more wind
in the early morning than at night. Our
experiment, in our opinion, was a great
success, for the cost of the early morning
flooding was exactly one-fourth of the
cost of flooding at midnight and the field
was ready for skating at eleven (11) a. m.
(and not only in the afternoon”, as stated
in the letter).
- I wish to assure the readers of the Col-
lege News that every effort is made to
provide skating under the adverse condi-
tions of the Bryn Mawr climate in which
the thermometer goes up and down daily
with astonishing rapidity. There never
has been perfect skating at Bryn Mawr
and, in my opinion, there never will be.
We can only do the best we can. We ask
for a little of the faith shown in the Busi-
ness Office one sunny day last summer.
It was 96° in the shade when a member of
the College came to the office and asked
for a College ‘Heat Complaint” book!

ed
A bronze tablet in honor of Miss Gar-
rett has been placed on the Deanery wall
of the cloisters by the Directors of the
College “In lasting remembrance of her
services to woman’s education.” The
tablet is designed by Lockwood Deforest,
who did the interior decorating of the
Deanery and built the Gymnasium and
the Infirmary, and is copied after an In-
dian design.
.The tablet commemorates her founda-
tion of the Bryn Mawr school in Balti- .
more and her work in endowing the Med-
ical School of Johns Hopkins, in raising
the standard of entrance requirements
and in opening it to women. It also men-
tions her work in connection with suf-
frage.
According to the Alumnz Quarterly for

leges over $450,000 in all. This makes
her the third largest benefactor, the other
two being the founder, Dr. Taylor, and
Carola Woerishoffer. -

under the auspices of the History Club
and the 1918 Endowment Fund Commit-
tee. The profits of the lecture will. go
to the Endowment Fund, and Captain
Beith’s fee to the British Red Cross.
“Tan Hay” is well-known as the author
of “The First Hundred Thousand”, “ad-
mittedly one of the best war epics en-
joyed by the public”. At the beginning
of the war he enlisted in “Kitchener’s
Mob” with the Argyll and Sutherland
Highlanders, and thus gained the per-
sonal experience from which he described
the growth of the “New Army” and its
action in France. In his lecture he will
describe the more intimate aspect of the
“New Army”, “warfare from the retail
point of view”, and then speak of the
three phases of the war, and of “our
friend the enemy over the way”.
Last “Outlook” Has Article
His article in the last Outlook, “Getting
Together”, which is soon to be published
with other articles in book form, is an
interesting reflection of Captain Beith’s
attitude toward the part of the United
States in the war.
Captain Beith gained experience as a
regimental officer, but is now serving on
the Staff. He took part in the Battle of
Loos and the subsequent operations and
won the Military-C€ross for bravery—in
the field.
There will be a reception after the lec-
ture in Radnor for the History Club and
invited guests.

Allegory to Arouse Interest in Mission
Work
Miss Gertrude Ely ex-’00 has been in-
strumental in starting a pageant to rouse
Philadelphia’s interest in mission work.
BE. Pugh ’15 and other graduates of Bryn
Mawr are among the members of Episco-
pal churches around Philadelphia to take
part. The pageant will be a religious
masque showing in allegorical form the
yearning of primitive peoples for the un-
known and will be given in the Philadel-
phia Opera House at quarter past eight
on Friday evening. The admission will
be $.50 to $1.50. This is merely to cover
the cost of production.
The pageant opens with the birth of
sympathy into the world when a youth
rescues a victim from human sacrifice.
This episode closes with a group repre-
sentative of the different religions. In
the second episode the youth is shown
the path to Heaven by Faith, but returns
to earth to: give service during his life-

MARQUIS OF ABERDEEN TO SPEAK
ON CANADA'S STATESMEN
The Marquis of Aberdeen and Temair,
who is to speak Friday afternoon in Tay-
lor on “Canada and Her Leading States-
men”, is himself one of England’s states-
men. Lord Aberdeen was Lord Lieuten-
ant of Ireland and a Privy Counsellor in
1886. For five years he served as Gov-
ernor General of Canada, 1893-98, and for
ten years, 1905-15, he was Viceroy of
Treland.

WATER-POLO GAMES TWO
WEEKS OFF
Hard Practice Winds Up Winter Season
Extra practices, strict training rules,
and a series of captain’s: meetings herald —
the culmination of the water-polo season,
the inter-class match games. The games
begin February 26th and schedules of the
dates are already under way. As before,
four first team games will be played the
first week, two matches Monday night
and two Thursday. The captains have
not drawn yet for opponents. Last year
1917 lined up against the present cham-
pions, 1918, and 1919 drew 1916. Dark
blue and green met in the finals.
Eleventh Hour Teams Barred Out
Each class will have to state in ad-
vance the number of teams it has entered
in the matches, according to the decision
made at the captain’s meeting last Mon-
day. This is intended to prevent the
eleventh hour entry of teams drummed
up, not to play water-polo, but to gain an
| extra point for their class. Even under
this ruling, however, at least three teams
apiece are looked for and the Sophomores
and Freshmen will probably enter four or
five.

280 ALUMNA PRESENT:
The annual meeting of the Alumne As-
sociation was held in the Chapel, Satur-
day, February 3rd. About 280 alumna’
were present. The president, Cornelia
Halsey Kellogg '00, opened the meeting
by reading the report of the Board of Di-
rectors, in the course of which she em-
phasized the present unsatisfactory
method of local organization in the Asso-
ciation, and told of the suggestion made
the previous evening at an informal con-
ference, that small groups of alumnz be
organized in all parts of the country for
the purpose of arousing and maintaining
interest in the College among both alum-
ne and outsiders.
There were many other reports read,
among the most interesting of which was
that of the Academic Committee given by
the chairman, Elizabeth Sergeant ’08.
During this past year the committee has
been working on the subject of entrance
examinations and of College preparation
in general, and in this connection has ex-
pressed disapproval of, the type of prepa-
ration which is given by’ such schools as
the Bryn Mawr Tutoring School. The
committee even goes so far as to recom-
mend that no entering student be allowed
to leave her final examinations until the
new system of tri-partite examinations
has been given a thorough trial.
A special report on the Carola Woeris-
hoffer Department was given by Pauline
Goldmark ’96, who spoke of the interest
in this department shown by outsiders
and the willingness of many social agen-
cies, such as the Juvenile Courts; the
Consumers’ League and the Children’s
Bureau, to co-operate with it even to the
extent of giving financial support.
A stirring report was given by Caroline
McCormick Slade ’96 on behalf of the
Finance Committee. Mrs. Slade spoke
of the success of the class collections,
which since 1908 have brought in $168,-
000. With the first $100,000 the salaries
of nine full professors were raised, and
the completion of this present endowment
gift will enable the College to raise the
salaries of the Associate Professors. Mrs.
Slade paid a sincere tribute to the under-
graduates when she said that they had
been living the Endowment Fund and set-
ting the pace for the alumne. She ended
her speech by saying that the work of
completing the $100,000 must not be left
to the class collectors, and urged every-
one present to sign pledge slips, which

“LIGHTHOUSE FOR BLIN BLIND”
DESCRIBED BY —,
in Fingertips ©
“You see I am rather an historic per-
sonage; I am the oldest living lighthouse
keeper for the blind”, explained Miss
Winifred Holt, speaking last Thursday in
Taylor. Miss Holt is the president of the
Committee for the Re-education of the
French Soldiers Blinded in Battle, a posi-
tion to which she was called in July, 1915,
when she left her lighthouse in New York
and sailed for France to start a similar
work there. Miss Holt gave as a liberal
estimate of the number of French soldiers
blinded during the present war as 2000
men. The work of the committee has
been to prevent unnecessary loss of sight
by the introduction of military casques
and masks for protection against poison-
ous gases, and to help those already
blinded to a means of self-support.
Lighthouse Miracles
The lantern slides illustrating the lec-
ture were explained by Miss Holt with
many stories. She saved one soldier,
“Bebé”, from madness by finding his
funny bone”, in giving him for an Easter
present a little yellow cotton chicken.
Flowers and cigarettes she presented to
one man just blinded, and to another a
blind man’s checker board, shown after
the lecture, in which the black squares
are sunk and the white raised. An im-
portant means to the patients’ recovery
lies in their recreations, Miss Holt said,
and gymnasium classes, fencing, skat-
ing, and even horseback riding are among
their sports.
Articles of the patients’ handicraft were
shown after the lecture, among them a
delicately modelled bronze fawn and a
piece of stencilled pottery made possible,
Miss Holt explained, by the use of a
double stencil. The desire of the com-
mittee was emphasized that the work be
valued for its own merit and not merely
because the workmen were blind.
JOHN DREW GIVES “PENDENNIS”
John Drew, who is now acting the part
of Major Pendennis in the play adapted
from Thackeray’s novel, will come to the

23rd. This production is for the benefit

was the enthusiasm that many pledges |
were signed for amounts from $1.00 to’
$2000, with a total of $8830.
B. M. Unit for War Relief |
Leah Cadbury, 1914, made the follow-
ing motion, which will be of interest to
undergraduates as well as to alumne: |
Resolved: 1. That a committee shall |
be appointed immediately to organize a
unit of Bryn Mawr alumnez to work in
one of the belligerent countries.
2. That this committee after investiga- |
tion of various fields of war relief work |
which can be opened up to college women,
shall select the most suitable destination |
for the unit.
3. That the committee shall be author: |
ized to call for volunteers among the}

cluding all who will be members after.

them into a working unit
4. That the unit is to be known as a
group sent out under the auspices of the
Alumnez Association of Bryn Mawr.
5. That each member of the unit shall
be responsible for her own expenses.
This motion was finally referred to the
Directors of the Association, and they
were given power to consult with the
Trustees of the College, and to act on the
motion without reference to the Associa-
tion as a whole

SACRED" PRECINCTS INVADED
Men Come to Class Plays
“The. ‘Gadeuaeuaa. Association ‘last
Thursday evening unanimously passed a
‘motion admitting men to class plays.
The Red Cross was changed from the
Undergraduate Association to the Chris-
tian Association. The president, Miss
Shipley, announced the cut record for the
semester and the appointment of a com-
mittee of four, one from each class, to
take charge of the registry of cuts. A
sense of the meeting was taken that there
be no talking when the Freshmen are
given their lanterns on Lantern Night.
The motion that men be admitted to
class plays and operas when introduced
by a student, alumna, faculty, or wife of
a faculty member, was limited by the
clause that they must sit on the ground
floor of the Gymnasium, and that students
do not hang their feet over the gallery
on such occasions.
Red Cross Changed to C., A.
A motion made by J. Jamieson ‘17,
chairman of the Red Cross Committee,
and supported by N. McFaden ’17, presi-
dent of the Christian Association, that the
Red Cross Committee be removed from
the Undergraduate to the Christian Asso-
ciation, was unanimously carried.
H. Harris '17, chairman of the Endow-
ment Fund, urged the co-operation of all
in getting the $3000 still needed to com-
plete the undergraduate share of the fund,
and spoke of the appreciation of the alum-
ne of our present success. “They say we
are an inspiration to them”, said Miss
Harris.
It was also voted that a committee of
three be appointed to audit all College
accounts. This includes all committees
with any appreciable financial work such
as Endowment Fund, Students’ Building,
and the Lost and Found Bureau. A plan
for having a committee to consult with
the faculty was taken up and will be fur-
ther considered.
MISS KING UPHOLDS
CULTURAL COLLEGE
Foundation and Resource Gained from
Academic Course
“The Cultural College” was the subject
of Professor Georgiana Goddard King's
address at the luncheon of the Montclair
College Women’s Club in January in
which she advocated the four year under-
graduate course as typified at Bryn Mawr.
The vocational college was the subject of
another speech, but Miss King said that
the place for vocational work is after,
not instead of, an academic education.
If a student wants to go into paid work,
Miss King pointed out, a cultural course
gives a fundamental training which en-
ables her to accomplish more and advance
further in the line she chooses; if she
either does not want a paid position or is
unable to leave home on account of re-
sponsibilities there it gives her invaluable
resources and wide fields of interest to
which to turn.

Conference Shows Wide Field of News-
paper Work for Women
(Continued from Page 1)
$10,000 a year, according to Mrs. Edna
Woolman Chase, editor of Vogue and rep-
resentative of the woman’s paper, lies in
an instinct—the instinct which enables
one “to guess correctly nine times out of
ten, spring or fall, exactly where the
couturiére is going to put the woman’s
waist line”. Miss Elizabeth Cutting, of
the editorial staff of the North American
Review, speaking of magazine work for
women, advised contributing one’s own
writing as a means to getting an editor-
other hand, Miss Adelaide W. Neall (Bryn
Mawr ’06), associate editor of the Satur-
day Evening Post, in discussing manu-
script and proofreading, urged beginning
with a secretarial position as one from
which it is easy to advance. Miss Earn-
estine Evans, reporter on the New York
Evening Post, pointed out that newspaper
jobs are easier to get than magazine work
and that the Schools of Journalism are
of use in bringing one into contact with
newspaper people.
Sorrows of a Copy Editor
Miss Neall’s talk concerning the trials
of the copy editor who gives the manu-
script its final polishing, was the most in-
teresting of the four. Nothing that could
offend any reader must be let pass. If a
party in a story goes to supper at the
Ritz she must cross out the information
Ritz is the best hotel they ever went to,
for that would be free advertising. If an
no longer take the magazine because one |
next number, the author writes to de-
mand why his good, red-blooded story has |
|been ruined by having all the “damns” |
‘and “hells” taken out.
Miss Neall gave some al
to the college studént by saying that she |
thought that if a college graduate and a
woman who was not a college graduate |
were trying for the same position the |
woman with a college degree would have |
first consideration. An introduction to}
some editor she recommended as the best |
means of getting a start.
