DESCRIBES» work FOR FEDERAL
MEASURE—CONFIDENT OF
SUCCESS

_ While the Foseral An Amendment giving
women the vote was being passed in the
House of Representatives last. Thursday,
President Thomas, in an enthusiastic
speech before the Suffrage Club in Pem-
broke East, described the work done for
the Federal Amendment at the Annual
Convention of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association, held in De-
cember in Washington, D. C.
Before she began speaking, President
Thomas asked a member of the club to
call up the North American information
bureau and find out the progress of the
vote. “The test vote triumphant in the
House—nothing -final—but the measure
sure to pass”, came back the answer to a
delighted audience.

President Thomas shared the optimism
of the reporter at the end of the wire and
predicted the passage of the amendment
through both Houses and its ratification
by three-fourths of the States.

She cited the nearly equal representa-
tion. of Republicans and Democrats in
Congress as favorable to woman suffrage.
Both parties, she explained, are afraid of
losing a single seat through opposing the
woman suffragists who now vote in
twelve States. The passage of the pro-
hibition amendment, she pointed out, had
prepared the way for a Federal Woman
Suffrage Amendment by dealing a blow
at the States’ rights doctrine.

Describing the measures taken by the
Woman. Suffrage Convention to bring
pressure on Congress to pass the Federal
Amendment, President Thomas read the
resolution voted unanimously by the dele-
gates, a “resolution with teeth”:

“That if the Sixty-fifth Congress fails to
submit the amendment before the Con-
gressional election of 1918, the Associa-
tion shall select and enter into such a
number of senatorial and congressional
campaigns as will effect a change in both
Houses of Congress sufficient to insure
the passage of the Federal Amendment.

The selection of the candidates to be
opposed is to be left to the Executive
Board of the State in question.

A patriotic rider to the resolution de-
clared that neither party considerations
nor loyalty to the Federal Amendment
should take precedence of loyalty to the
country. The passage of this resolution
by the suffragists, according to President
Thomas, together with the fact that New
York, the most powerful State in the
Union, had gone for woman suffrage,
made the Federal Amendment for the
first time an immediate possibility.

To illustrate her statement that prac-
tically all progressive people are for suf-
frage the speaker referred to what she
termed “a very satisfactory and delightful
thing”, the fact that during the New York
elections the vote of the men in the train-
ing camps, of “the young and brave men
of the State”, was two to one for woman
suffrage.

M. Martin ‘19, the youngest delegate,
spoke briefly to the Club on the practical
details of the Convention, emphasizing
the businesslike methods, the political at-
mosphere, and the wonderful speeches of
the leaders.



On the same day the suffrage amend-
ment was passed in the House of Repre-
sentatives a bill including the enfranchise-
ment of British women was passed by
the House of Lords.

eL—





With a total of 37% points, as against
1921’s 22 and 1919’s 17%, 1920 paddled off
with the highest honors in the first swim-
ming meet last Friday night. M.S. Cary
’20 was individual champion with 20
points to her credit. No records were
broken or equaled.

As 1918 did not enter the meet the}
titles were contested only by the three |
lower classes.. In strong contrast to the |
meets last year, when new records were |

established in every event, there was
little excitement on the sidelines. From
the beginning there was no doubt as to
the outcome, and the only surprise of the
evening was 1920’s loss of the plunge for

NEW WATER REGULATIONS IN ROCK
Individuals Responsible for Breakage
The Rockefeller water situation came
to a head last Monday morning when
President Thomas announced in Chapel
the regulations drawn up by ‘the business
Manager after consultation with Miss
Nearing, warden of Rockefeller, and Mr.
Foley, superintendent of heating, lighting
and plumbing, to prevent the expensive
freezing of the pipes. For several weeks
Rockefeller has been torn by internal
dissensions because of the untimely hour
the water was shut off from the rooms at
night and turned on in the morning.

Under the new plan breakage of pipes
is the responsibility of the individual and
must be paid for by her. If the plan
fails there is great danger, according to
President Thomas, that the individual
basins will be taken out by the Directors’
Committee on Buildings and Grounds.
One washstand will be installed in each
bathroom next summer in any event, she
said.

The water is now shut off from the
rooms at 10.30 p. m. and any one going
to bed before then must leave her win-
dows closed for the maid to open at
10.30. It is not turned on again until
7.30 and on Saturdays and Sundays not
until 8. Any one wishing to sleep later
must leave word for the maid to close
her windows at the time the water is
turned on.

FOOD CONSERVATION LAUNCHED



To plan a menu which will conform
with government regulations, give suffi-
cient nourishment to young people who
are working hard, and yet come within
the bounds of the college income is, ac-
cording to Miss Martha Thomas, chair-
man, the threefold problem confronting
the Food Conservation Committee, which
held its first meeting last Monday.

The possibility of issuing individual
“Hoover” cards, encouraging the saving
of sugar and other war scarcities, was
discussed at this meeting. K. Sharpless,
senior member of the committee, is in-
vestigating what has been done along this
line by other women’s colleges.

All the white bread used in the college
was declared by Miss Crawford, Junior
Bursar, to be the so-called “war bread”,
baked with 20 per cent.cornmeal instead
of the full wheat.

It was decided at the last Warden's
Meeting that milk lunch, usually served
twice a day during examinations, wil! this
year be given out only in the evening.

MILLION AND A HALF WOMEN
HELP WIN WAR IN ENGLAND

Use for Horsechestnuts Found at Last

SOCIETY WOMEN GOOD
WORKERS

_ That society women make excellent
kitchen maids in wartime and that with-
conscientious work
England could not have done what she
has in the war, was one impression
gained from Miss Helen Fraser’s talk on
English Women’s Work in Winning the
War, given in Taylor Hall last Friday
afternoon.

Beside the million and a half women
who have replaced men in industry, Miss
Fraser pointed out, there is the Woman’s
Army Corps or the W. A. C.’s as they are
called, who are enlisting at the rate of
10,000 a month to do regular army work:
cooking, clerical work, light transport
driving both in England and in France.
Mentioning the fact that there had been
but 280 regular army nurses in England
at the outbreak of the war, Miss Fraser
told of the invaluable aid given in the
first months, when six hundred officers
were killed, by the V. A. D. or voluntary
detachment of the Red Cross. This body,
now numbering 60,000, was organized
amid a lack of popular enthusiasm, by
Miss Haldane in 1909. Its members keep
England’s thousand hospitals supplied
with nurses, Miss Fraser continued. On
executive committees, as well as in rou-
tine life, she went on, the war has
brought out women’s ability. The Food
Controller has two women co-directors,
and women are represented on all com-
mittees in which they have special con-
cern.

Farmerettes and “Canary Girls”

Women farmers are trained by the
Board of Agriculture on the home farms
of the big estates, given a uniform of





smock and breeches, cut to order, and |

transported free to their posts. They
sign on for a year and have a minimum
wage of $5 a week, continued Miss Fraser,
with a cottage to live in and a daily al-
lowance of milk and fuel.

The million women engaged in muni-

tion manufacture turn out as many shells |
in a fortnight now as were made in gll of |

last year, she said. Miss Fraser praised
especially the sacrifice of the “canary

girls”, who, working with picric acid, turn |

yellow even to their hair.
Miss Fraser’s Own Work
2
War saving done through associations

of soldiers, sailors, and school children |

subscribing from three farthings a week
up, is Miss Fraser’s own branch of war
work. Saving of food she also described;
how fats are extracted from dish-water to

make glycerine for munitions and how |
horsechestnuts as cattle feed have saved |

200,000 tons of grain.

In the discussion that followed the lec: |

Dispatch.



12,000. RESSINGS TOTAL OUT.
PUT OF WORKROOM TO DATE

Faculty Work Wednesday Afternoons

Over 12,000 dressings have been folded
at college since the Red Cross work:ocm
opened, newly-compiled records show.



_| Twenty-seven dressings for the year is

the per capita average for the college at
large, although the actual weekly averag>
for the worker is 58 dressings a week.
The average attendance has been 17
workers a night.

“The workroom attendance has been in
the main good, and no dressings have
been turned back since the first weeks”,
figures, “but the college working group
is one of the smallest of the Main Line
Branch. Probably this is due to its being
open only in the evening”.

The workroom is open for the Faculty
from 3.30 to 6 every Wednesday after-
noon. Mrs. Noyes, of Penygroes, and Mrs.
de Laguna are in charge. 268 dressings
have been made in the two afternoons
when the workroom was open.

College Knitters Number 300

Three hundred knitters are registered
on the workroom wool books. Over a
thousand hanks, to the value of about
$829.75, have gone through the hands of
the college Red Cross. About half of this
Was given out free to be returned.

CLASS APPORTIONMENT FOR ~
SERVICE CORPS, $6000

Varsity to Raise $4000

The apportionment of the $10,000 to be



raised before June for the Service Corps
was ratified by the War Council Tuecday
night. $6000 is divided among the classes
proportionate to their membership, and

$4000 is assigned to the college at large.
The class assignments are:

1918, $1020; 1919, $1500; 1920, $1410;
1921, $2085.

Gate receipts from speakers go to the
classes securing them, and pledges taken
after the speeches are to be counted
toward the class fund of the persen

pledging. All contracts for speakers
must be viséed by the Education Depart-
ment.

The contributions of Faculty, Staif, and
graduate students are to go toward the
varsity fund, and varsity dramatics, if
they are given, will contribute to this
fund.

A Service Corps week-end, at which
college women experienced in war work
will speak, is contemplated by the Red
|Cross and Allied Relief Department.



Class committees will be directly re-
sponsible to the Department ef Red Cross
land Allied Relief, which is to manage the

| varsity fund.
‘NO MORE:-CAMPUS MOVIES—TOO
LITTLE CLEARED

| Movies in the gymnasium for the bene-
fit of War Relief have been abandoned,
|on the recommendation of the manager,
|M. Martin "19

The expense of showing the films has
increased to such an extent, Miss Martin
pointed out, that the prefits are too small

to justify the risk. At the last movie,
given November 24th, $80 out of the $100
| taken in went for expenses, whereas last
/year the relation of the expenses to. the
‘total receipts was usually about $60 out
of $120.

Miss Martin has managed the college
movies for two years, last year for the
| benefit of the Endowment Fund, this year
junder the Red Cross and Allied Relief

$10,000 for the Service Corps

$10,000 for the Service Corps is a large
order, but Bryn Mawr can make it and will
make it. It will require of the committee
unremitting work and of everyone in col-
lege sustained enthusiasm. . For the cam-
paign is being undertaken not with the
pathetic resignation which caused one
woman to say to“dnother whose boy had
enlisted, “I shouldn’t think you'd like to
have your son go to be killed”, but with
rejoicing that Bryn Mawr is at last put-
ting her shoulder to the wheel.

NO MORE RICE FOR BRIDES IS

Rice, as a part of wedding festivities,
must be given up and the bride and
groom escape unshowered, according to
a dictum of the Food Administration.

The first formal announcement of the
new régime has been made, the New York
Times reports, at the Hotel Majestic in
New York, where a placard, hanging in
the room where weddings take place,
urges the saving of rice. Last week there
were six weddings in five days in this
room and quantities of rice were wasted.

To the Editor ‘ the College News:
It is most encouraging to those of us
in France who see the College News to
learn through its columns of the earnest
patriotism at Bryn Mawr. The glorious
Liberty Loan campaign, the extensive or-
ganization of war committees, and the
general tone of college life seem to indi-

cate a determination to do the self-sacri-
ficing things, no matter how common-
place, that are necessary to win victory
and peace.

_ I should appreciate very much the op-
portunity to suggest that some share of
your gifts to war sufferers be given
through the Shurtleff war relief work
to the refugees of Paris. The needs of
those who have given not only their hus-
bands and brothers, but their homes and
often their little children, for their
country grow every day more appalling.
The families of the soldiers who are hold-
ing the trenches with indomitable cour-
age must be cared for.

The Shurtleff Committee, which has
been helping the refugees since the out-
break of the war with clothing, furniture,
and special aid of various sorts, is sup-
ported by gifts from America. Like many
of the committees in France it is allied
to the Red Cross in its work, but is finan-
cially independent. The large organiza-
tions must undertake the extensive work,
but for immediate pressing need the
smaller committees are indispensable. It
is therefore essential that these commit-
tees receive inereased aid as the need
becomes more acute.

Members of the committee go out in
pairs every day to climb the dark flights
of stairs and visit the people in their dis-
mal, crowded rooms; others interview
the families approved of and fit them out
with good second-hand American clothes
and shoes worth their weight in gold.
Still others buy the furniture and deliver
it in the little Ford truck. There is an
Ouvroir that gives work to about sixty
women, and a food department to build
up particularly run down families. In a
weekly conference problems are dis-
cussed, cases are approved, and special
cases assigned for medical care and
follow-up work; the thrilling stories of
adventure and escape lighten the atmos-
phere of misery and suffering.

The appeal of misery cannot be ig-
nored. If it is possible to send second-
hand clothing to those who come from
Germany suffering with the cold, if it is
possible by gifts of money to give beds
to the little children who are sleeping on
the Paris floors, the sacrifice and genér-
osity on your part will be greatly appre-
ciated.

~[Moonomies and Politics.)

The one thought in the mind of almost
everyone as they left Taylor Hall after
hearing the inspiring address of Miss
Fraser was that we, the American women,
are not measuring up to the English
women. Why are we not more exten-
sively employed? What can we do?
Where will our services count the most?

These questions demand serious con-

sideration. We must remember that the

situation in the United States is quite
different from that in England. During
the first year of the war only a small
percentage of our men will be called into
military service. The vacancies so
created can be filled by a readjustment of
labor from the non-essential industries
to the war industries and by employing



ing work. —

that there is no real shortage of labor.
There is a shortage of skilled machinists
in the ship-building industry, but, unfor-

trade. The unskilled male worker at
present could be more profitably trained
to do this work. The government needs
skilled typists, trained nurses, physi-
cians, linguists, and accountants. Since
it takes both time and money to acquire
an education, and since those who have
a trained mind will be greatly in demand
in the future it is our duty to continue
our studies so, when the time comes, as
it probably will if war continues, we will
be able to take our places willingly and
intelligently in whatever capacity we are
needed.

Little Rachel Views the Campus

“That is the owl-gate, Little Rachel”,
said Aunt Desdemona, as they drew near .
the campus. It was one o'clock, and an
atmosphere of feverish unrest lay over
the college.

“T suppose those are the owls”, rejoined
little Rachel, who was slightly near-
sighted. She was watching the figures
flying with kaleidoscopic rapidity from
one side of the arch to the other.

“No, indeed. It is the hash. They are
students, beating down upon their prey”.

“It must be the rush hour”, said Little
Rachel.

“It is, but when you are older you will
learn that the rush hours are not so vital
in Rockefeller as the wash hours”, re-
plied her aunt, as they passed up the
campus.

“How can you tell where Rockefeller
ends and Pembroke begins’? queried
Little Rachel.

“The air is the chief distinction”,
the answer.

“Denbigh on your right is comfortable
and homelike”, continued Aunt Desde-
mona. “A cross section would show you
the rabbit hutch. the chicken coop, and
fiction library”.

Little Rachel looked curious, but she
was too well-bred to interrupt.

“Llysyfran, seen from the rear eleva-
tion of Denbigh“, went on her aunt, “is
a transient house. By many it is called
the duplex apartment, because its gov-
ernment is a dual monarchy”.

“The next building, bristling with ga-
bles, reminds me of war-like Heorot”,
said Little Rachel, who planned to take
Anglo-Saxon for her second science.

“You are right, only it is the war-like
Merion”, replied Aunt Desdemona. The
next is Radnor. The rooms there are al-
most. totally unused, except the dining-
room. The affections of the natives
have been alienated to the Library”.

“KITCHENGARDEN” CLASS
AT CENTER

Housekeeping on Kindergarten Scale

“Kitchengarden” is the name of a class
for little girls, which opened at the Com-
munity Center last week. The course,
which is conducted along kindergarten
methods, consists in teaching housekeep-
ing by means of dolls.

N. Porter ’21, assisted by M. Smith ’21,
has charge of the class, which will meet
every Saturday morning at ten.

WHAT'S IN STATISTICS?
A journal on crime stated that statis-

tics showed that crime among the Turks:

had increased 100 per cent in Washing-
ton, D. C., during the past year. Upon
investigation it was found that during the
year in question only one Turk had lived
in Washington and that he had been ar-
rested twice that year and once the year



before!



SPORTING NOTES



No banner will be hung out on the
gymnasium during water-polo prac-
tice for this year’s championship, as
C. Hall, president of the Class of
1917, which holds. the title, is unwil-
ling for the red banner to go up after
the class has left college.

The undergraduates have been in-
vited by the graduates to join in their
regular basket-ball practises on
Thursday evening from 8.30 to 9, in



the gym.

1921 has elected M. Morton drill
leader for the gymnasium meet, and
E. Cecil apparatus leader. The cap-
tain for clubs has not been chosen.

There has been better skating dur-
ing the last week by accident than
the plans of the Athletic Association
accomplished last year; the three
hockey fields have been frozen, there
was a long slide the length of Senior
Row, and, as one student said, “You
ean start from the steps of Pem and
skate to the upper hockey field”.

‘subject is insisted on by President Lowell
of Harvard, in his recent annual report,
-a8 one of the conditions of intellectual
progress. On matters outside the sphere
of -his professorship, however, the pro-
fessor’s rights are merely those of an or-
-dinary citizen, President Lowell finds.
“The fact that a man fills a chair of as-
‘tronomy, for example, confers on him no
particular right to speak upon the pro-
‘tective tariff’, he declares. Moreover,
-since a college is “under certain obliga-
tions to its students’, in that it “compels
‘them to attend courses of instruction”,
the students, on their side, “have the
right not to be compelled to listen to re-
‘marks offensive or injurious to them on
subjects of which the instructor is not a
-‘master—a right which the teacher is
.bound to respect”’.
REFUGEE FROM SI/EGE OF VAN,
SPEAKER HERE SUNDAY NIGHT



Dr. Clarence Ussher, a medical mission-
‘ary who was in an Armenian hospital in
Van,. Turkey, during the siege by the
‘Turks in 1915, will speak Sunday evening
in Chapel.

In a book describing his experiences at
the time, Dr. Ussher tells how the Rus-
sians, who came to the relief of the hard-
pressed Armenians, were compelled to
evacuate and leave them to be slaugh-
tered. Dr, Ussher came to the United
States six months ago to lecture for Ar-
menian and Syrian relief.

DIRECTORS ASK FORMER STUDENTS
TO JOIN ALUMNA ASSOCIATION
Attempt to Increase Life Membership

Special invitations to former students
of the college to join the Alumnz Asso-
ciation have recently been sent out by
the Alumne Board of Directors in an or-
ganized attempt to increase the Associa-
tion’s membership. Any former student
who attended two consecutive semesters
while in college is eligible to Associate
Membership, with most of the powers of
full membership, as soon as four years
have elapsed from the date of her enter-
ing as a Freshman.

Associate Membership is conferred on
applicants through unanimous election by
the Alumne Board of Directors. Except
for the power of voting and the right to
hold office in the Board of Directors or to
serve on standing committees, associate
members have the same privileges as full
members. They pay the same annual
dues of one dollar and fifty cents, but are
exempt from all assessments.

A special attempt to increase the Life
Membership of the Association is also
being made. Life Membership, open to
former students as well as alumnae, has
dues of thirty dollars and provides ex-
emption from all annual dues, assess-
ments, and possible increases in the dues.

described by one of the speakers at :
mass meeting in Petrograd a few weeks
ago.

mands of their employers to be impris-

geons, to be broken on the wheel, and to |

quotes from the account of a member of |

of their houses’

the American Red Cross Mission to
Russia.
The immediate cause for this anti-

American demonstration was a _ report
concerning the anarchist, Alexander

Berkman, now under sentence for con-
spiring to obstruct the draft regulations.
The speaker declared that Berkman had
been thrown into a dungeon and would
never again see daylight.



A study of comparative religions, led
by Kate Chambers °11, Ph.D. (Mrs. Lau-
rens H. Seelye), will constitute the Bible
Mission Study Course for the second
semester.

Mrs. Seelye,
Chambers '19, has led courses at several

who is a sister of D.

Y. W. C. A. conferences. At one time a
student volunteer with the hope of going
to Turkey, she studied for a doctor’s de-
gree in Comparative Religions and Arabic
under Professor Jastrow, of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, and Professor Gott-
heil, of Columbia.

Beginning Wednesday, February 6th,
the course will last seven weeks. Febru-
ary 20th and March 13th there will be di-
vision meetings for discussion, led by
members of the Bible Mission Study Com-
mittee. The subjects of the five lectures
by Mrs. Seelye will be: Primitive Re-
ligions; _Mohammedanism,° Buddhism,
Hinduism, Confucianism, and the reli-
gions of Japan.

ARE INVESTIGATING PLAYS
SUGGESTED BY PROF. BAKER

Both Long and Short Considered

A number of plays suggested by Pro-
fessor Baker of Harvard are being inves-
tigated by the Varsity Dramatics Commit-
tee. Among these are Verhaeren, a play
of cloister life; Behind a Watteau Pic-
ture, which has just been played at the
Greenwich Village Theatre; The Maker
of Dreams, by Oliphant, and Three Pills
in a Bottle, one of the plays produced in
Workshop 47.

Hither one long play or two short plays
would serve the purpose, the commiteee
feels. In the report which they submit
to the Undergraduate Association they
will recommend a number of each, ar-
ranging the short plays in groups and es-
timating the cost of production of each
group.

In interviewing Professor Baker over
vacation, M. Martin '19, chairman of the
committee, says that she received from
him many suggestions as to the produc-
tion and lighting of an out-door perform-
ance in addition to recommendations as
to plays. In the article on Varsity Dra-
matics in the News last week the outcome
of Miss Martin’s interview with Professor
Baker, referred to as ending “with little
success”, was unconsciously misrepre-
sented.

the War Council met the speaker at tea,
Miss Fraser emphasized the point that
government recognition of women’s work

England, perhaps for the reason that they :
have in the past had great influence in
politics over there and have been organ-—

She added that the first service a college
woman could give is to finish her educa-
tion. In England the women's colleges
are full.

“The Firet - “adie Saedeaies
Printed at the Front” has been issued
every Sunday since last August by Sec-
tion 63 of the American Red Cross Ambu-
lance service, says an article in the ‘Red
Cross Magazine for January.

The title of this weekly production is
“Soixante Trois”. Like other trench pa-
pers it is made on a duplicating machine
and, on account of its popularity and the
lack of paper, rarely in sufficient. quanti-
ties.

Drawings, seriously patriotic editorials,
explanations of officially couched orders,
and social notes fill the sheet. One issue
contained a pictorial supplement with the
emblem of the section executed in inks
of three colors, The advertising serves
as an outlet for humor:

“BE PREPARED
To Receive the
CROIX DE GUERRE
MEDAILLE MILITAIRE



YOU MUST BE BRIGHT
Have. Your Belts and Buttons Shined by
CLOUD-TENT ‘A’.”

The poem, “L’Ambulancier”, by Burr C,
Cook, is one of the best examples of the
verse produced by the section. The first
stanzas are:

“It’s a sorry job on a sorry road,
With the brancards shaking their gory
load,
And the agonized cry of the poor
blessé—
Doucement, doucement, s’i!l vous plait.
“A man’s last hope, and love and fear,
Are swinging there in his stretcher gear,
But no matter the danger, night or day,
He must aller doucement-s’il vous plait.”

‘| serious fines of all imposed on Freshmen

| throughout the second semester, the min-

of oral tutoring classes, no further protest
on the subject of tutoring classes will be
made by the student body. This decision
was reached at a meeting of the Associa-
tion last week in Taylor, when President
Thomas’s letter was read aloud by Miss
Kneeland, and the Association abandoned
its previous plan of asking for a confer-
ence with the Faculty.

President Thomas, replying to a state
ment made when she and Dean Taft met,
wrote in part:

That some of the students seemed to
think that it was not in accordance with
Bryn Mawr practice to make students pay
for tutoring classes, but that—to quote
verbally: “There are a number of avoid-
able charges imposed on Bryn Mawr stu-
dents as on all other college students, for
example, gymnasium and library fines,
fines for handing in course books late,
fines for changing courses, and the most

who fail to pass off their entrance condi-
tions by the end of the first semester, in
which case, as you know, they are com-
pelled to take at their own expense a
tutor recommended by the college and to
tutor a certain number of hours a week

imum price for such tutoring being $1.50
per hour.

“All universities and colleges have to
use fines for two reasons, first, because
they are most effective, and second, be-
cause indirect charges which can be
avoided by industry and care constitute
the best known way of supplementing in-
adequate fixed charges.

“T should like you to know that to meet
the case of very poor students who
really cannot afford to pay such avoidable
extra charges, the Directors of the college |
have created what is known as the Presi-
dent’s Fund, out of which fines and tutor-
ing classes in French and German are

college or to the Secretary or to me that
the students concerned are really unable
to pay them. Every year the charges for |

students are paid out of this fund.

ment for one year of giving tutoring
classes in French and German to the siu-
dents without charge; but it worked
badly, first because, as is almost always
the case with free classes, the students
did not seem to value the teaching and
cut a great deal more than they do when
they pay for them; and secondly, because
the expense to the college was so great
that it prevented us from making another
academic appointment which we very
much needed”.
