SERGEANT FARNAM FIRED FIRST
SHOT FOR A AMERICA

Suffering of Serb Ref Refugees Described.

“It was not the red-headed soldier who
fired the first shot for America, but I,”
declared Sergeant Ruth Farnam, of the
First Serbian Cavalry, speaking on “A
Nation ‘at Bay”, last Saturday evening in
Taylor; “in the name of American wom-
anhood I gave the signal for the Serbian
‘artillery fire in the battle of Bréd, on
October 11th,”

Sergeant Farnam, in the uniform of the
Serbian army, the cloth for which the
-commander-in-chief had sent her with
her commission, described her hospital
work in Serbia and her expedition to the
front, and pictured the frightful suffer-
ings of the Serbian refugees. ‘We have
words to describe what the Belgians suf-
fered, but we have no words to describe
what the Serbians suffered,” she said.
“No people ever more deserved our help
and sympathy.”

“Make Me a Soldier”

Last year Mrs. Farnam went to Salon-
ika, she said, to superintend the distri-
bution of relief funds and from there was
allowed “to go on to the front with the
Serbian military medical commander-in-
chief. From the side of a mountain she
looked down into the Serbian and Bul-
garian trenches while shells whizzed over
her head; it was then, she explained, that
the commander-in-chief of the Serbian
army offered to let her give the signal for

JUNIORS COME BACK WITH
VENGEANCE AND WHIP 1918

Seniors Offense Powerless Before
1919’s Fight. Score of 5-2

1919, roused by their first defeat,
whipped the Seniors 5-2 in the second
game of the first team water-polo finals,
Monday night. The game deciding the
championship was played last night.

Grim, unyielding determination on the
part of 1919, and the hope of a speedy
victory on the part of 1918, made the
game the most tense and hard-fought of
the year. T. Howell '18 was rendered in-
effectual by the repeated joint attack of
E. Lanier ‘19 and E. Carus °19, and the
whole Senior offense weakened before the
strong opposing guard. The dark blue
defense played up well, H. Wilson at goal
keeping down the score against incessant
attacks.

G. Hearne '19 put in the first goal with-
in the first two minutes of play, but a
neat throw by M. Stair "18 from the right
of the goal soon evened the score. Hard

to 44

Gordon Woodbury "19 was elected

chairman of the War Council by a ma-

jority vote of 66 to 44 at a mass meeting
in the Chapel last Thursday. The elec-
tion was from five nominations made at a

previous meeting.

The new chairman took office Monday
night at the first meeting of the War
Council after her election. She is the
president of the Junior Class, and has
been an editor of the News since the be-
ginning of her Sophomore year.

Other offices in the War Council for
the year 1918-19 will be filled gradually
as the presidents of the associations and
of the classes are elected.



MISS DIMON MANAGER OF FARM



Land Ready for Planting after Easter

Miss Abigail Dimon ’96, Recording Sec-
retary of the College, will act as manager
for the Bryn Mawr Patriotic Farm this
summer. During the spring the manager
will be Miss Marian MacIntosh ’90.

Ploughing on the farm begins this
week, and work will be ready for the
students immediately after Easter.
Squads will be needed every day in shifts
of two hours or more on the land fur-
nished by Mr. Hinckle Smith, which can
be reached in a twenty-five minutes’
walk. The work will be chiefly planting
potatoes and will count as exercise.

To avoid the expense of buying tomato
and cabbage plants, hotbeds for growing
these have been set out on the campus.
The campus land will probably not be
ploughed as the farm will include about
thirty acres without it. The five acres
behind the Baldwin School will be used
as a kitchen garden for supplying the
food used during the summer.

The head farmer, Mr. Josepl{ Wood-
ward, began work two weeks ago.

ALL DAY EXPEDITION BRINGS
BACK 21,000 CANS FROM FARM



Group of Eight Stacks Three Truckloads
A party of eight went out to the last
summer’s farm at West Chester, Satur-
day, and brought back twenty-one thou-
sand cans stored there for use this sum-
mer. The expedition, of which Miss
Dimon and Miss Nearing were members,
left the halls at seven in the morning and
returned at half past six at night.

The cans were brought back in three
truckloads and stored in the loft of Ken-
nedy’s stables, on account of its nearness
to the Baldwin School, where the canning
will be done this year. About a dozen
students spent the afternoon unloading
the cans and stacking them in the barn.

DR. ROSS LEADS ©. A.
CONFERENCE



Dr. G. A, Johnston Ross, of the
Union Theological Seminary in New
York, led the Christian Association
Conference held here last week.

Dr. Ross met with the members of
the Cabinet, Wednesday, and spoke

to a crowded Chapel Thursday and

Friday evenings. President Thomas
gave a tea for Dr. Ross at the Dean-
ery, Friday afternoon, to meet the
Cabinet and students. Individual
conferences were held by students
earlier in the afternoon.



BOLSHEVIKI ARE NOT REALLY
REPRESENTATIVE OF RUSSIA

of Revolution Traced by
Mrs. Marie Rohling, of Odessa

Russia is now in the hands of a small
party not representative of it, according
to Mrs. Marie Lazroz Rohling, of Odessa,
who spoke in Taylor on “The Bolsheviki
and the Russian Revolution’, Monday
afternoon. Mrs. Rohling, who has just
come from Russia, sketched the back-
ground of the Russian revolution and de-
scribed the Russian peasant. ‘

The Bolsheviki, she suggested,-do-not
realize that Russia cannot be hurried po-
litically; that it “takes three hundred
years to get an idea into a Russian, and
three hundred more to get it out”. They
represent only the city people. Ninety

Individual adjustment to the living God
and the resulting interpretation of the
present world situation in the light of re-
ligion, were the subjects treated by Mr.
George A. Johnston Ross in his two ad-
dresses, last Wednesday and Thursday
evenings, at the Christian Association
Conference.

“Any woman,” said Mr. Ross in the
first of his two sermons, “is hopelessly
frivolous and flippant, and therefore a
negligible quantity, if she does not lay
hold of something that cannot be
smashed by German artillery—and that
something is God.

Many of them did not even realize there |

happened.
Russia is the country of individualism, |

Mrs. Rohling said, and consequently the |

Russians cannot work together. Social,

though not political freedom, is charac-
teristic of Russia, contrary to popular
opinion. Equality at school, where rich
and poor wear uniforms and sit side by
side, is emphasized early.

German customs have been forced on
Russia. Petrograd is practically a Ger-
man city, Odessa French; the real “holy
Russia” centers at Moscow, Kief, and
Cracow, and when the German enters
them the Russians will be really aroused.

Alexander II, who liberated the serfs in
1861, Mrs. Rohling declared to be the
only “decent ruler” Russia has had. His
son, Alexander III, kept education from

naturally stupid, and are now trying to

Definition of Christian Nation
A definition of a nation, drawn from
different parts of the Bible, opened Mr.
“A nation,” he
“is any large group of dissimilar

discipline, with the result that they
become possessed of some special gift,
which it is their duty to hold in trust or
the world.

“But just as God is a God both of
mercy and of judgment, so a nation, on
occasion, may mediate the justice of God
to another nation which, like Germany,
has used the sword to cut away the
foundations of human trust.

“No, that is the gymnasium. All the
beauty, wit, and song in the college are
gathered there this evening,” replied her
aunt.

A burst of sound sii their ears.

“Ah,” little Rachel drew in her breath.
“What is that?”

“That is the Glee Club rehearsing.”

“Oh.” Little Rachel passed her hand
over her brow. A look of pain flitted
over her face. “Glee Club,” she mur-

“Come away, Rachel.”

“Oh, Aunt Desdemona, listen. People
must be fighting behind this door. Do
you suppose it is the philosophy club?”

“No, child. That’s the members of the
News board, talking in their native lan-
guage. Talking, scolding at each other.”
Aunt Desdemona was very fond of Long-
fellow. ‘Come away,” she added.

Little Rachel looked disappointed until
a third sound became distinguishable.

“That must be the captain on the bank.

“No, that is the coach,” said her aunt.
‘Don’t stand so near; they'll splatter

Little Rachel wanted to ask what a

“See the girls over there whistling,”
she said. “They do it all the time, but
they don’t look happy at all.”

“They are whistling for fouls,
child.”

“But I don’t see any,” she cried. “Mine
always came when I whistled to them
anyway.”

Suddenly the lights went out. “That

aunt. “It is the only way of hinting to

Little Rachel sighed. “I have always

DR. ROSS EMPHASIZES IMPORTANCE
OF INTERNATIONAL THINKING



“Personal adjustment to God, repre-
sentation of the strongest intellectual life
in the college, and an international out-
look, should be the ideals of the Christian
Association”, said Dr. Ross in tracing the

ciation at a meeting of the cabinet last
Wednesday evening.

Dr. Ross went on to emphasize the im-
portance of the Federation Committee,
which is connected through the Y. W. C.
A. with the World’s Student Federation,
and said that this committee should exert
a stronger influence in developing inter-
national thought in the college.

BISHOP OF PENNSYLVANIA TO

‘| time from the ‘liaison work’ (so called!),

in which my knowledge of France imme-

diately involved me, and -from my re-

searches for the New Republic. As to the

| former, I have nothing whatever to’ show

for it, but it has taken much energy and
many hours: finding this French person
for that American and vice versa, trying
to bring certain American authorities and
certain French together and help in get-
ting their ideas ‘across’ to each other;
listening to French criticism and Ameri-
can criticism and passing it along tact-
fully, etc. I have seen quite a little of
the Publicity Department of the Civil
Affairs Department of the American Red
Cross, but had to refuse an offer to give
them half-time. Yet they have taken a
certain amount of solid time! Through
Gertrude Ely and Martha McCook, who
are at the head of the woman’s side of
the Y¥. M. C. A; and very powerful in the
inner councils, I have followed their prob-

lems, more or less. They have asked me

to lecture or talk to the ‘boys’ on French
subjects, and Arthur Gleason is also
anxious to have me write an article of
‘constructive criticism’. All this I surely
mean to do, want much to do, but have

hot yet had time for. The speaking trips

are fearfully tiring and can’t be combined
with anything else. I should like im-
mensely to give a solid month or two to
them, and that is what they would like.

officers of the line along the way. Then
they (i. e. the top of the General Staff)
decided they wanted me to see the whole
thing and would send me down the ‘line
of communication’ to the base port, in
order to be able to describe for America
the problem of the army from the sea to
G. H. Q. But at that point I picked up a
purely American grippe germ, which gave
me a long siege, partly in an army hos-
pital. I am only just all right again. It
has lost me six or seven weeks’ work, at
least effective work. I am now on the
point of starting on the delayed trip,
which I shall make partly through the
good offices of the American Red Cross,
thereby getting material for a Red Cross
article. Dr. (Major) Lambert (‘medicin
chef’) is taking Mrs. Borden Harriman
(sent over by the Council of National De-
fense) and Miss Ruth Morgan—and me.
I am very incidental, but a seat in a
limousine n’est pas & refuser here and

and the trains are hours late and un-
heated. Between the Y. M. C, A.‘and this

very thorough official view I’m getting I

army, and it is absorbingly interesting. —
Then again, of course, half the problems
are Franco-American and need very nice
interpretation if they are not to offend.”

which Miss Sergeant describes, she has
published an article in the New Republic

SILVER BAY VESPERS COMBINE
HUMOR AND SERIOUSNESS



Athletics Described and an Objection to
Silver Bay Refuted



The humorous and serious sides of ten
days at Silver Bay were described at Ves-
pers last Sunday evening by E. Biddle
19, M. L. Thurman '19, and M. Ballou ’20.
M. M. Carey, as head of next summer’s
delegation, led the meeting.

“What you get out of Silver Bay,” de-
clared M. L. Thurman, “is not the emo-
tional appeal that makes you want to sing
hymns, but the opportunity of ten days’
plain, unadulterated thinking about fun-
damentals. The sort of person who will
get something out of the Conference is
the person who wants to have some be-
lief, who thinks of religion from some

other angle than the ‘it isn’t so’ point of

view.

“One must be ready to put up with any
inconveniences at Silver Bay, As one
girl said, the place where we lived was
built in seven days and we arrived on the
sixth.”

M. Ballou told of the sports that take
the place of classes in the afternoons.
The various colleges compete in tennis,
basketball, rowing, swimming, etc., for
the athletic championship of the confer-
ence. “Right after dinner,” said M. Bal-
lou, “there is a sort of magnified Senior
singing, when each delegation tries to
show off its best college songs.”

An objection sometimes raised against
Silver Bay was met by B, Biddle, leader
of last year’s delegation.

“Some people say,” she declared, “that
in this year of war we have no right to
spend time and money on a luxury like
Silver Bay. But Silver Bay is not a lux-



ury. As Mr. Ross said, three things are



more important than food and ammuni-
tion and these three are faith, hope and
love. I cannot guarantee that you will
come away from Silver Bay enriched with
these, but I am confident that you will.”
Facts About Silver Bay

The Silver Bay Conference begins June
2ist and lasts ten days. Expenses, in-
cluding carfare from Philadelphia, can be
covered by $35. A paper has been posted
in Taylor for the signatures of those who
are fairly certain they would be able to
go. The delegation of twenty-six will be
chosen after Easter.

BRITISH TANK



IN PHILADELPHIA



Is Manned by Original Crew

The British tank, “Britannia”, manned
by the original crew that drove it into the
battle of Arras last spring, is being
shown in Philadelphia this week as an
advertisement for the war play, “Getting
Together”. All of the crew of eight
were wounded in the battle, in which the
tank was temporarily incapacitated.

The “Britannia” is a “female” tank,
since it carries only six machine guns.
It weighs thirty tons and cracked much
of the asphalt over which it lumbered
through Philadelphia last Saturday, Its
maximum speed is six miles an hour.
The same tank has been exhibited this

SPARTANS, FIRST USED GAS

In about 400 B. C. the Spartans began

the use of gas in warfare, says the Wash-
ington Weekly News Digest; wood was
saturated with pitch and sulphur and
burned under the walls of enemy cities.

For several centuries gas has not been
used in warfare, and The Hague conven-
tion definitely ruled against it. However,
on April 22, 1915, the Germans liberated
great clouds .of gas against Canadian
troops near Ypres. Terrible destruction
and demoralization resulted from this
first gas attack, and within a week Eng-
land was making plans for gas warfare
against the Germans.

Soon after the first German gas attack
English and French women sent to the
front hundreds of thousands of home-
made gas masks, For the most part they
were merely bandages impregnated with
chemicals to wrap around the mouth and
nose.

WOMEN MEND KHAKI FOR SOLDIERS



D. A. R. Open Mending Rooms at Camps



(Released by Committee on Public In-

“Mending rooms” equipped with sewing
machines and complete mending equip-
ment, have been established in army can-
tonments by the Massachusetts and Mich-
igan Chapters of the Daughters of the
American Revolution.

The value of the work is declared to
be twofold, “the conservation of clothes
and the reassuring of the men that
women can find an outlet for patriotic
service in the very feminine work of keep-

Miss Tallent Tells of Headquarters in
Somme Village

The work of the Smith College Recon-
struction Unit in France was described
last Wednesday in Taylor by Miss Alice
Weld Tallent, head of the unit.

The workers, said Miss Tallent, went
out under the civilian division of the
American Fund for French Wounded, and
were assigned a group of villages in the
Somme district. Their headquarters were
in the grounds of a ruined chateau, in
three temporary houses and a partially
destroyed “orangerie”. They were forced
to pay $1200 for a 1914 Ford touring car.

“We can’t say enough,” declared Miss
Tallent, of the appreciation showed by
the French people. One woman, who
came to see us on New Year’s Day, told
us ‘for three years we haven't felt like
saying Happy New Year, but since you
have been here we are glad.to say it to
everybody.’ ”’





ILLUSTRATED LECTURE CLOSES
MRS. SEELYE’S CLASS



Slides illustrating the practice and ef-
fects of various modern religions, were
shown by Mrs. Seelye, last Wednesday, at
the final meeting of her class on Com-
parative Religions.

South Sea Islanders, the keynote of
whose religion is fear; Japanese girls
grinning
Hindu idols, and Indian outcasts, were
among the subjects shown. Slides of
Arabia, “the cradle of Islam”, included
scenes in Mecca, the goal of every Mo-
hammedan pilgrim, which no Christian
has ever entered except in Moslem dis-
guise.

Photographs of the people before they
had come under the influence of Chris-
tianity were everywhere contrasted with
pictures of the graduates of mission
schools,

‘Thursday night. Starting out with a

rush, the Seniors made six goals in the
first half and one in the second before
the Juniors were able to score.

Two goals apiece by M. O’Connor ‘18,
T. Howell '18, and L. T. Smith '18, in the
first half, was a good record for the
Senior offense. T. Howell and M. O’Con-
nor showed up well in eluding their op-
ponents, while L. T. Smith was speedy in
the throw-off. Several times E. Carus '19,
at half-back, sent the ball up to her for-
wards, but their shots always fell short.

In the second half M. Stair '18 had
made her first goal before 1919 started
their aggressive game. With EF. Carus '19
holding T. Howell '18, and the rest of the
Junior team fighting hard, two goals by
F. Clarke '19 resulted before the calling
of time.

K. Tyler 19 and D. Hall '19 changed

Paul and ‘Luther,
humble possessors of an entire freedom

their day has been a series of battles to

“No ‘American is an American citizen in

that the duty of America is to spread this
freedom of spirit to other nations.

“The highest sense in which you can
do this is to spread the principles of a
freedom that has its origin in the thought

as prepared to share spiritual food with

CAN GUNS CARRY 70 MILES?



Gray Suggests Explanations for
Amazing Artillery Progress

Dr.



Possible explanations for the extraor-
dinary falling of shells on Paris, suppos-
edly from seventy miles away, were
pointed out by Dr. Gray in his current
events talk Monday evening.

Heavy artillery formerly has not car-
ried more than twenty miles, he said,
but possibly the projectiles now drop-
ping on Paris are not made from the
usual steel, but from tungsten, and hence
can be of smaller size in order to carry
further;.possibly they contain in them-
selves a propelling mechanism which op-
erates after the original projectile has
carried the: usual distance, for possibly
they are aerial torpedoes manipulated by
wireless from aeroplanes.

That open fighting instead of trench
warfare may be the aim of the German
offensive, Dr. Gray suggested; the cur-
rent report goes, he said, that the German
officers would expect an advantage in
open tactics since the new British and
American officers have received training
only in trench methods.

LARGE CONTRIBUTIONS OF BOOKS
FOR CAMP LIBRARIES



Three Schools Give Through Colicge



One thousand books for the soldiers
and sailors were turned in to the college
library in the campaign last week. Of
this number Shipley’s, Baldwin's and
Miss Wright’s School each gave about
forty. —

“Practically every contribution is worth
sending,” said Miss Reed, head librarian.
Two-thirds of the books are late popular
fiction. The others range from Ele-
mentary Physics to the Poems of Percy
McKay. Self-Cultivation in English and
Cicero’s Letters were perhaps the two
oftenest duplicated.

Volunteers will be needed to paste in
bookplates and labels immediately after
vacation. The books will be sent to the
Pennsylvania Free Library Commission,
Harrisburg, for distribution in the camps.

New Department Heads Come in May ist

Directors of War Council Departments

The classes are to elect representatives

fall. Additional members may be added
to departments by directors and the War
Council.

Class representatives from the three

the big guns behind to fire; she threw up
her right hand, shells dropped into the
enemy trenches and she cried that this
was the first shot fired in the name of
American women to avenge the sufferings
of Serbian womanhood.

“You ought to be a soldier,” the gen-
eral said to her.

“Make me one,” she replied, and a few
weeks later received her commission.

Mrs. Farnam, who is an American, born
on Long Island, first went to Serbia at
the time of the war with Turkey and con-
tinued her relief in a hospital there dur-
ing the Balkan war. In the present war,
when typhus was raging after the second
Austrian invasion, she returned and
worked, with many other Americans, no-
tably the Harvard Unit and members of
the Rockefeller Foundation.

Serbians Flee in Dead of Winter

“America would have to lose twenty-five
million men to suffer in the same propor-
tion as Serbia,” said Mrs. Farnam; the
evacuation was made in weather like that
of a New England winter; of 30,000 boys
who started out of the country, 6000
reached safety; 70,000 men have been ex-
ecuted, many of them by being roped into
a square and having a machine gun
trained on them; and 30,000 young girls
have been sold into Turkish harems.

Soldiers’ Song Books Provided

Serbian life before the war and some
of the horrors of the refugees’ flight, were
illustrated with lantern slides. Patriotic
songs from the song books, recently pub-
lished by the U. S. Government for army
use and loaned by President Thomas,
were sung before the lecture.

RED LANTERNS EFFECTIVE IN DUSK

Way to the Sacred Shrine” at Lantern
Night last Friday. The red lanterns car-
ried into the cloister by the Sophomores
in long procession were most effective
and the Sophomore singing of “Pallas
Athene Thea” excellent but for a slight
difficulty at first in keeping together.
They were led by L. Kellogg, song-
mistress, and E. Wight.

The scaffolding on the cloister roof
was reduced this year to a mere platform,
wide enough for two rows of people to
stand on, in accordance with a vote of
the Undergraduate Association to cut
down Lantern Night expenses.

The form of the first part of the cere-
mony was not changed in any way, al-
though room was made for a few spec-
tators at the back of the cloister. At the
singing under the Arch afterward, class
songs of former years were simply asked
for, and the absent class cheered, instead
of each song being sung as has been
done until this year.

On leaving the Library the Freshmen
marched around Taylor and then directly



instead of through the

greduate rebrgieniation on ‘the Executive



Board of Self-Government for 1918-19.

The chairman of the Board is the presi-
dent of the Association, 8. Taylor 19,
who was elected last week.

The Executive Board has the first de-

cision on cases of offense against the reg-
ulations, and enforces the legislative res-
olutions of the Association. Appeals
from the judicial decisions of the Board
may be made to the Association, which
constitutes the highest court.

Results of the election of a secretary
from 1920 and a treasurer from 1921 were
not known as the News went to. press.
The new graduate member of the Execu-
tive Board will be elected after the an-
nouncement of the graduate fellowships
in May.

The Class of 1920 took an indicating
vote and posted a list of names in alpha-
betical order for each of the offices which
it was to fill.

they are first brought into the
stations.

The experimentg which led to the dis-
covery of the serum were based on the
belief that gaseous gangrene, which is
produced by the bacillus welchii, results
from the secretion of a true soluble toxin,
rather than from the simple accumulation
in the tissues of gas or acid. The ideal
conditions for gangrene were produced
in a test tube by inoculating a .2 per cent
fragments of fresh muscle, with a pure
culture of bacillus welchii, and, after in-
cubating over night, filtering through a
sterile filter. The filtrate thus obtained
was found to be a true secretory toxin,
capable of producing a characteristic
case of gangrene.
this serum into horses, an antitoxic
serum was produced, which will neutral-
ize the toxin so that it produces no lesion,
and which will prevent the growth of bac-
teria in the body.

Miss Pritchett is supplying Dr. Bull
with serum from six horses regularly in-
jected with the toxin. She is also using
the serum in the treatment of hospital
cases. At Bryn Mawr Miss Pritchett took
the minor course in Biology. She has
had one year of bacteriology at Columbia
University.

Accounts of her work are published in
The Scientific Monthly, October, 1917,
and in The Journal of Experimental Med-
icine, 1917, XXVI, 119.
