TUTORING SCHOOL
ON SCROON LAKE

Will Live in Bungalows

ALUMNAE SCORE CRAMMING SYSTEM

Moon Hill Camp on Scroon Lake in
the Adirondacks, for sixteen years a reg-
ular summer camp, will be transformed
this summer, for six weeks, from August
13 to September 24, into a tutoring school
for Bryn Mawr under the management
of A. MacMasters °17. Two big bun-
galows, with small cottages nearby, com-
prise the living quarters.

Thirty-five students is the largest num-
ber which can be accommodated, and
the number and choice of teachers must
depend upon the applications. Members
of 1918 may come at any time for tutor-
ing in French and German.

Old School Travesty on Education

Criticisms of the former “cramming”
school system appear in the report of
the Academic Committee of the alumnz
published in the April Alumnz Quarterly.
“The travesty on education which has
resulted from such schools and from the
tutors associated with them has almost
undermined the work of some of the de-
partments of the large universities.
**But what the Academic Committee
chiefly deplores is the detrimental effect
on the college work of students enter-
ing Bryn Mawr after this kind of prep-
aration. The college records bear out
our objections. Of sixteen students en-
tering in September, 1915 from the tu-
toring school ten failed to make their
merits in February, 1916. While it is

CHANGES NEXT YEAR AT
COMMUNITY CENTER

Italian Night School a Success

“Everything will be different at the
Community Center next year”, said Jane
Smith ’10, the Director of Center this
winter. “No one under 16 years will be
allowed to come in the evenings, so there
will be more room for the adults”.

Miss Smith plans to have a corps of
emergency workers consisting of college
students who sign up at the beginning of
the year as willing to miss one concert
or play during the year and go that night
to work at the Center. This year nobody
has been there on nights of college plays.

H. Allport ’'17 and H. Karns ’19 have



been running an Italian night school at’

the Center since Easter. Until then it

had been managed by Haverford students. |

One night recently a Haverford man
strolled in “to see how many of the men
the girls had been able to hold”. To his
confusion he was told that the girls had
not only held the eight men left at ‘!:e
end of the Haverford régime, but had :n-
creased the number to eighteen.

There have been about fifty regular!

workers from the college at the Center
this year.
Summer Plans at the Center

Playground, summer schoo). Italian
night school and other activities will be
kept going at the Community (enter this
summer by Mr. and Mrs Philip Rice. The
Baldwin School has offered the Center
the use of all its tennis courts and ath
letic fields for the summer, and it is
possible that special preparedness classes
will be organized and the Center used
as a headquarters for canning clubs in
the district.

Mrs. Rice had charge of the Community
Center last summer. Mr. Rice has had
experience in managing boys recently as
a Y. M. C. A. worker in the Philippines



HELEN TAFT ’15 NEW DEAN
Dean Schenck Prefers Scholar’s Life

Helen -Taft '15, daughter of ex-President
Taft, will succeed Miss Schenck as Dean
of the College next year. President
Thomas, in announcing it in chapel last
Thursday morning, said in part:

“I have to make both a sad announce-
ment and one which I hope may be happy.
Dean Schenck has decided to resign as
Dean of the College and continue her
work as Associate Professor of French.
I am sure you will all regret deeply as |
do this decision. Executive work is a
very special sort of thing. It is impossi-
ble to tell whether you like it until you
try it. Dean Schenck has tried it fairly
this year and although she has, as you
know, been very successful, she has de-
cided that she prefers the life of a scholar
and professor. You cannot succeed in be-
ing both a dean and a professor. It is, in
my opinion, perfectly impossible to carry
an important executive position and to do
such work as is required of a professor in
Bryn Mawr College, that is, to teach grad-
uates and undergraduates, to do research
work oneself and to direct the research
work of others. Every one has to choose
her life work for herself and so, I think,
that we shall all agree that if Dean
Schenck wishes to lead a scholar’s life it
is wise for her to reach. this
much as we regret it. It is at the same
time pleasant to remember that the great

ido, that the French Department is much
| to be congratulated.

| Now for my happy announcement. The
| Board of Directors has unanimously
| elected as Dean of the College Miss Helen

| Herron Taft, who is known to many—of4

|} you. It seems to us very desirable to
|} have in the office one of our
| younger alumnz, who will develop with
| the college and will help the college to

keep close to modern conditions of edu-

Dean’s

| cation. Miss Taft is only a year and a}

| half younger than I was when appointed
| Dean of Bryn Mawr College. She is only
| two years younger than Dean Reilly was.
| We do not think she is too young. Mor>-
| over, her three years in the White Ho-.se
| have made her more mature than
dicated by her years. She is personally
{known to many of the younger alumne
because the classes of 1912, 1”, 14, 15, 16,
and 17 were in the college with her.

she entered as a freshrian in 1908, and
was here two years and it was during her
second year in Bryn Mawr College that
her father was elected President of the
United States. As her mother was not
very well it was necessary for Miss Taft
to Jeave the college to help her mother
in entertaining at the White House. At
the end of three years she returned here
to continue her studies. It is very un-
usual, | am sorry to say, for a student
who leaves Bryn Mawr College for so
long a time to come back and take up
again serious study, but Miss Taft is a
; genuine student. She returned in 1913
and took her degree in 1915, magna cum

—really wonderful achievement when you
think that three very full years in the
White House in which there could not
be much opportunity for study were inter-
posed in the middle of her college course

Many of you will remember her as one
of the leading debaters in the public dis-

ENDOWMENT FUND
COMPLETED OVER NIGHT

$700 Goes to Alumn Fund

The $106 raised over night by 1920 has
brought the Endowment Fund. up to the
$10,000 mark pledged in 1915-1916, and
has won the $700 offered on “its comple-
tion. This $700 will go into the Alumnz&
Endowment Fund.

The freshmen made this final spurt be-
cause they had not contributed as much
previously as the other classes. At the
last moment 1919 gave $40.

In previous years the cups and prizes

an inventive Athletic Board hit upon the

Alumne, and the cup presented by Miss

championship. This will cer-

Dean Schenck

To those of us who have become recon-
ciled to the loss of Dean Reilly only
through this year’s acquaintance with her
successor, the news of Dean Schenck’s
resignation comes as a double blow. To
the freshmen, whom she has introduced
for the first time to the mazes of the
Group System at Bryn Mawr and whom
she has guided safely through the time-
honored combination of First Year Eng-
lish, Minor Latin and Biology, the event
is as unwelcome as it is unexpected. To
seniors, to alumne, and also to all out-
siders interested in the college, Dean
Schenck probably stands above every-
thing else, for the person who put the
Appointment Bureau on its feet._In one

year she has made its hitherto potential
value actual.

With the Dean, perhaps more than with
any other member of that mysterious
force, the “Office”, each student is intl-
mately connected. That this connection
must be broken after a year which the
new Dean has marked with achievement
as well as promise is a misfortune only
to be gauged by those who know Dean
Schenck.



By Divine Right

Like the voice of one crying in the witd-
erness we presume to raise a protest in
connection with the peculiarly hereditary
aspect of college elections. Formerly
club presidents, choir leaders, and varsity
captains were by tradition members of
the senior class, but in 1916 the custom of
odd class monopoly obtained a strong
foothold. K. McCollin '15 was appointed
choir leader and 1917 captained three
varsity teams.

Of course, “‘side by side we always rush
ahead”, the odd class song proclaims, but
it seems as if now a phrase had better
be incorporated to the effect that the for-
ward march is over the supine bodies of
the blue classes.

'rushlight’s melancholy—and _ well-con-|
| structed beam.
The College Inn, May 22, E. Hill.



vo ae Etc ane cies]

in this morning’s ~News’ invites a little
further comment on. the- seniors’ plays,
for the reason that those of your. —
who were so fortunate as. ‘to enjoy”
critique and so unfortunate as to niles
the acting, may wonder why some of us}
think these one-act plays worthy of per-
formance.

We must all agree with your critic
when he says that it takes a good deal
of imagination to mend gossamer, To
make the gossamer in the first place,
takes some imagination. But why on
ear.h should anybody except a Freud
lament that such dream stuff doesn’t
make him think? For my part, I was
quite content to dream; to watch the
shimmering humour of the delicate char-
acterization. Characterization, though it
hadn’t the sure touch of a minstrel show,
was, I think, the charm of the fantasy.
I liked to see how the author had com-
bined the typical and the individual, the
conventional and the unexpected, turning
her puppet-play into a (tiny comedy of
arts. I didn’t look for much action on a
mantelpiece, nor expect to find it on the
frail platform set up in a college quad-
rangle.

As to Miss O’Shea’s hands, no per-
fumer’s list, not even Flaubert’s, could
explain them. Might one proffer a
museum catalogue—since India and West
Philadelphia are so far away? Might
one hazard a guess that we, less robust
than they of Pater’s time, resist a pun
to fall before a metaphor? How else ex-
plain the sentence which ushers in that
dastardly attack on poetry at Bryn
Mawr. And as for the clock’s hands,—
hands seem to interest your reviewer—
they were almost--too well-behaved. Oh
happy critic, never to have seen the
hands of a clock go forward and then
backward, beset by weary glances! And
yet these details are far less important
than the idea of the poet, who tried to
stammer what nature told him, or of the
fragrance, that floated incense-like from
her jar to follow the teaching of the wise
old God,

Undoubtedly Miss O’Shea’'s theme is
to some extent disagreeable. Young
Irishmen in love—even Young Irishmen,
when they are so much in love that they
lose their sense of values—are likely to
be disagreeable. But in this case the
motive seems to turn not on the man’s
but on the woman’s attitude; and I feel
sure that Miss O’Shea did not traduce
Ireland when she sacrificed the man’s
ideal to the idealism of the woman.

For I, too, know what happened! They
are sad wags who dine in Théléme. One
ean’t expect them to leave a glorious
Rabelaisian mood at the edge of the
campus. Strayed from remoter revels,
a critic ought not to be asked to keep
his eye on the object. He _ probably
couldn't, just then. (Doesn't .this solu-
tion agree beautifully with the Shaun

i tata ewe |



celebration theory?) And moods are di-
verting; only, it isn’t a mirror or a
monocle—it’s an opera glass—that helps |
one to see a play.

And so I can still thank the seniors
for an agreeable evening; and can look |
forward to The Lantern with the greater.

SETTLEM ENT SCHOLARSHIP

A. Shaffer to Represent Bryn Mawr

Recommended by Miss Kingsbury for
the scholarship offered by the Charity Or-
ganization of New York, A. Shaffer ’18 will
spend the month of July working at a set-
tlement in New York as the representa-
tive of Bryn Mawr College. Eleven other
colleges will also send a student repre-
sentative.

Miss Shaffer has majored in economics
and politics and is intending to do social
work after graduating from college. She
will make a report of the conference for

cussions of the cut rule. As I remember
it, she opened and closed the chapel de-
bate that I had with the students at this
time. I had the experience, not usual for
public speakers, of being convinced of the
soundness of her clearheaded arguments.
In-my_opinion she worsted me in debate
and won my heartiest admiration. When
she was a student here I was strongly
impressed as were many of the faculty,
by her strong and vigorous personality.
She is a person of very decided opinions.
She is, I think, a genuine student with
very high scholarly ideals in education.
After graduating from Bryn Mawr she
entered the graduate department of Yale
University and has been studying for two
years in the department of history, her
group hdre having been history and eco-
nomics. She has completed all her for-
mal work for the degree of Ph.D. at Yale;
her thesis only remaining to be written
of which she has already presented two
‘important chapters for the degree of M.A.
at Yale. I am sure that you will be inter-
ested to hear that her father warmly ap-
proves of Miss Taft’s accepting the dean-
ship of Bryn Mawr College. He has sent
me word that he is very happy over his
daughter's election. He has sympathized
‘in every way with her in her scholarly
work. She comes of a family of marked
intellectual ability and has herself not
only first class intellectual ability but in
addition qualities of sympathy and leader-
ship which will, I am sure, win your re-

spect and admiration.

There have been four Deans of Bryn
Mawr College. I served as Dean and Pro-
fessor of English for nine years from 1885
to 1894, when I became President. After
an interval of fourteen years Dean Reilly
was elected Dean in 1908 and served for
eight years and now is a member of our
Board of Directors. Miss Taft will suc-
ceed Dean Eunice Morgan Schenck, Asso-
ciate Professor of French, who had held
the office during the present year, but
prefers teaching to executive work anda
has resigned to continue her teaching of
French.

Let us hope that Miss Taft may find she
can do more for scholarship and true
learning as Dean of Bryn Mawr College
than in any other position; and that she
may become a permanent Dean and wor-
thy successor to Marion Reilly, who was
Dean of the College for eight years and
is now a member of our Board of Direc-
tors. Miss Taft will be at the seniors’
garden party and at commencement and
you will have an opportunity of seeing



and welcoming your new Dean”.

—‘The-mensbers-of varsity teams: wilf have —
to take a chance on playing in the varsity
game in order to make their letters, just
as they have had to in the past. —
| . A petition to change the method of
awarding B. M.’s brought the question up ~
before a meeting of the Athletic Associa-
tion last week and a motion was made by
M. Willard '17, captain of varsity water-
polo, to the effect that a B. M. be given
to a player making a varsity team whether
or not she takes part in a varsity game.
After considerable debate in which it
was declared that a letter must represent
playing for the college as well as mere
playing ability the motion was defeated
by the narrow margin of 45 to 30.

Tutoring School on Scroon Lake —
true ‘that only the weaker students are
in the tutoring school, experience seems
to show that it would have been better
for the college and kinder for the girls
not to have helped them in”.

“In order that the college may not,
therefore, give its official approval Susan
Franklin '89 recommended for the com-

mittee: That college property should not

be used for tutoring school; that col-
lege instructors should not engage in
tutoring in connection with such a
school; and that the college office should
discourage as far as possible hurried
tutoring at Bryn Mawr in the weeks
immediately before the autumn examina-
tions.

“The President and the Committee
agreed, however, that the objections to
a tutoring school would not apply to a
summer camp of six or eight weeks’
duration.” _—_——

B. M. Undergraduates Use Loan Fund

$2985 was loaned to Bryn Mawr under-

graduates last year from the $10,000 loan

fund managed: by Miss Martha Thomas,
warden of Pembroke. “The loan fund is
not an endowment and never makes a
general appeal”, said Miss Thomas. It
has been made up from the classes, the
alumne, gifts, and interest. The money
is used over and over again”.
