DR. MUTCH TO SPEAK ON
HIS OWN COUNTRY
Scotland will be the subject of a lecture
to be given Friday evening at the Com-
munity Center by the Rev. Andrew Mutch,
rector of the First Presbyterian Church,
Bryn Mawr. The lecture will be illus-
trated by slides. Two members of the
Community Center are to assist with an
exhibition of the Highland fling.
BATES HOUSE A NECESSITY
Miss Wiggins Defines Social Service
“Do you believe social life is your re-
lationship with the small circle of your
friends or your relationship with the rest
of the world’? That was the question
asked by Miss Anne Wiggin of Spring
Street in Vespers last Sunday.
Miss Wiggin told of the work of the
Neighborhood House at Spring Street, of
the splendid services of Varick House
and of the Day Nursery, and of Bates
House at Long Branch. “Bates House
and Varick House”, she said, “leave no
place for class distinction. People are
first attracted by the fact that there are
no printed rules concerning their conduct,
and that the people in charge do not say
it is just like home.”
The report read by Miss Wiggin showed
that in 1910 there was only money enough
to support the Day Nursery until October
and that the Vacation House had been
given up for lack of funds. An alumna
of Bryn Mawr offered to support the Day
Nursery and the Christian Association
undertook to finance a summer house,
which after Mr. Bates’ death was called
“Bates House”.
GRASS PROTECTED BY FINES
Varsity Song Competition Now Open
NEW SCENERY RULING PASSED)
Twenty-five cents was voted as a self-
imposed fine for walking on the grass, by
the Undergraduate Association last Mon-
day night. The money thus collected
goes to the Endowment Fund. A compe-
tition for songs suitable for singing by
the whole college was announced by H.
Harris °17, Varsity song mistress and
cheer leader. The competition will close
soon after Easter. The committee is H.
Harris ’17, C. Westling "17, L. Richardson
18, R. Rhinehardt '19, and L. Kellogg ’20.
A motion was passed that each class
should own its own scenery while in col-
lege and present it to the Undergraduate
Association on graduating. The old rule,
in effect since 1909, requiring the Associa-
tion to buy class scenery and then rent
it out, was rescinded. The reflectors now
belonging to 1919 will be bought by the
Association for $5 and then rented out for
3.75 a night.
$579 DEFICIT IN C. A. BUDGET

culty in raising the $1585 in the first
place”, said Miss Bacon, Chairman of the
Finance. Committee, “if there had not
been so many extra calls upon us. But
we must try very hard to do it even now
since ail the causes are depending upon
us, some of them upon us alone. I think
we can do it if everybody helps a little.
We should be very grateful to any who
is interested in the work of the Christian
Association to contribute even though
they are not members”.
1917 has already pledged $235.70; 1918
has pledged $80.50; 1919, $250; and 1920,
$193.50. The Auxiliary members have
pledged $135, and Honorary members
$16.
