LT. ROBERT NICHOLS SPEAKS ON
ENGLAND’S SOLDIER POETS
Reads From Works of Friends
As a representative of the young Eng-
lish poets who have fallen in battle,
Lieut. Robert Nichols, of the Royal Field
Artillery, gave a lecture-reading on Brit-
ish War Poetry Friday evening in Taylor
under the auspices of the English Club.
Describing himself as “slightly damaged”
through his fighting with the Hun, and
quite unused to lecturing, Mr. Nichols
kept his audience under intense emo-
tional strain for nearly two hours as he
read informally from the works of three
of his personal friends, Charles Sorley,
who was killed in action in May, 1915;
Robert Graves, who has been severely
wounded; and Siegfried Sassoon, who has
fought three times in France and once in
Palestine. Mr. Nichols has had severe
shell shock, and was obliged to remain
seated throughout most of his address.
Stresses War Poets’ Love of Action
To emphasize the directness and love
of action of the young War Poets, Mr.
ols described in contrast the inertia
of the poets of the ’90’s, “who never
played football or rode or swam, but pre-
ferred to lie on a sofa and think about
it.’ The glory of the 90’s was that they
rebelled against Victorian sentimentality
and Victorian bad technique, that they
saw that without truth there could be no
poetry; their weakness, that they prided
themselves on their exclusiveness and
used up their courage in such caprices as
wearing lilies in their buttonholes.
Through a, long stretch of “lean years,”
marked by “moral writers” such as Shaw,
Barker, Wells and Galsworthy, literature
finally got back, by way of the poetical
dramas of -Masefield, to real art.
The most characteristic emotion of the
immediately pre-war period in England
was indignation, Mr. Nichols declared.
When the war came, it provided some-
thing everyone could be horribly indig-
nant at. In so far it was a relief.
Sorley a Poetic Dramatist
Charles Sorley, the first of the “young
Elizabethans” whom Mr. Nichols de-
scribed, gives splendid expression to this
fighting mood. During his years at Marl-
borough he fought the whole school over
his successive “admirations” for Mase-
field, Hardy and Goethe. Sorley has been
called by Masefield “the greatest literary
loss England has sustained in the war.”
Another English critic prophesied that
had he lived he would have been the
greatest dramatist since Shakespeare.
“Like Emily Bronté,” Mr. Nichols com-
mented, “he is almost without adjec-
tives.” His greatest poem, in Mr. Nich-
ol’s judgment, is “Into Action.”
Mr. Nichols read “Stones,” “Lost,”
showing his love for the rain and the
wind, and the “Song to Marching Men”:
“All the hills and vales along
Earth is bursting into song,
And the singers are the chaps
Who are going to die perhaps.
O sing, marching men,
Till the valleys ring again.

VARSITY GAINS 6-3 VICTORY
OVER ALL-PHILADELPHIA
Four Goals by G. Hearne 719 Seal
Visitors’ Doom
For the third year in succession Varsity | |
has won from All-Philadelphia. In a
hotly contested and evenly matched
game last Saturday the college team,
every member but one playing, defeated
their ancient foe, with six goals to their
three.
The play was full of vim, particularly
in the second half. A noticeable absence
of long dribbles by the Varsity wings
bore witness to the efficiency of the op-
posing halfbacks. The main stars of the
sume were G. Hearne '19 and B. Weaver
20 for Varsity, and the Misses McLean,
MacMahon, and Townsend for AlIl-Phila-
delphia.
First Half, 5-2
The first goal was made, after about
five minutes of indecisive fighting, by the
All-Philadelphia team in a sharp scrap
at the goal. A retaliatory tally for Var-
sity, made by G. Hearne '19, followed, and
then came a period of scrapping, in which
Miss McLean, E. Biddle ‘19, and Miss
MacMahon took most active part. Two
raore goals were made by G. Hearne ‘19
from some distance, and one by M. Tyler
19, before Captain Townsend of All-
Philadelphia took the ball down for a
second score egainst Varsity. Just before
half time was called D. Rogers '20 drib-
bled down the field, and G. Herne "19 shot
another long goal at a sharp angle.
Second Half, 6-3
The second half showed more team-
work on Varsity’s forward line, and a cor-
respondingly . stronger All-Philadelphia
RECORD OF VICTORY UNBROKEN
Varsity’s victorious record for this
season is unbroken, even by a tie.

defense. As in the first half the visitors
drew first blood, this time with a goal
mude by Miss Townsend across a circle
swept clear of defense by a clever decoy
play in the right wing. The remainder of
the game was bitterly fought, but un-
eventful except for a final goal by D.
Rogers ’20. During most of the second
half the home halfbacks played on the
defensive.

COLLEGE RECEIVES $500,000
_ LEGACY FROM MRS. SAGE
Will Enable Bryn Mawr to Join
Professors’ Pension Plan
Margaret Olivia Sage, who died on No-
vember 4th in her ninety-first year, left
Bryn Mawr College one fifty-second share
of her residuary estate, which is esti-
mated by the newspapers. as between
$700,000 and $800,000, but by Mrs. Sage’s
executor, Mr. Robert W. de Forest, as
about $500,000, in a telegram sent to
President Thomas. Other shares go to
foreign and home missions, aid, tract and
Bible societies, hospitals, museums, libra-
ries, Hampton, Tuskegee, and fourteen
other colleges in addition to Bryn Mawr
—Troy Polytechnic, Union, Hamilton,
New York University, Syracuse, Yale,
Amherst, Williams, Dartmouth, Prince-
ton, and four women’s colleges, Vassar,
Wellesley, Smith and Barnard.
All these bequests are free from any
restriction except the request that they
shall be used in some way that shall com-
memorate the name of her husband, Rus-
sell Sage, who left her this great fortune
to dispose of. These splendid charitable
and educational gifts, amounting roughly
to $40,000,000, place Mrs. Sage next to
John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie
among American benefactors. It is gen-
erally thought that the Trustees will add
this legacy to the general endowment
funds of the college, and it is hoped that
the income. of about $20,000 of the legacy
will be set aside to enable the college to
join in the new prdtessors’ pension plan
of the Carnegie Foundation.
It is interesting to recall that during
her husband's lifetime Mrs. Sage at-
tended commencement at Bryn Mawr and
took such a fancy to President Thomas's
garden party hat that she ordered an ex-
act duplicate and wore it for several
years, as Mr. Sage gave her a very small
dress allowance. Soon after his death
she gave President Thomas $20,000 for
suffrage work, and lét her present the ter-
rible financial straits of the five women’s
colleges—Mount Holyoke, Vassar, Welles-
ley, Smith and Bryn Mawr. After this
interview President Thomas sent Mrs.
Sage a carefully written statement of
what an additional endowment of $1,090,-
000 «apiece given to these five colleges
would mean for women’s education. This
statement was never acknowledged and
President Thomas says that she feared
that she had displeased Mrs. Sage and
probably damaged Bryn Mawr’s chance
of being remembered in her will. Hap-
pily this proves not to have been the
case; and it may be that President
Thomas’ presentation of the needs of the
women’s colleges influenced Mrs. Sage to
include four of the five colleges among
her residuary legatees. At the time that
|Mrs. Sage’s will was made a fifty-second
share would have amounted to about
$1,000,000 for each college, but gifts of
principal during her lifetime considerably
reduced the residuary estate. Bryn Mawr
is deeply grateful to Mrs. Sage for its
legacy and will always revere her
memory.

there will be no issue of the News next

‘D. Clark '20 is assistant managing ed-
itor for this issue.
Thanksgiving Day will mean more to

Immediately after conscription was
abolished 50 of the 110 who had signed
up for work at the Community Center
withdrew their names. This fact does
not seem to bear out the argument of
those who objected to conscription on the
ground that public opinion could accom-
plish the work just as well.
Doubtless the majority have found that
four hours of war work a week is too
much. On the other hand, there is not a
person in college who could not give at
least one hour.
We suggest that each individual desig-
nate on her conscription card the amount
of time she is willing to volunteer and
then register her work each week as
before so that accurate tally can be kept
of the work done. By this means the war
service output of the college, which has
never been so great as this fall, might be
maintained and an even distribution of
work effected.
COLLEGE HEARS CHAPLAIN
“On the roulette wheel of nations Ger-
many picked her own color, spun and
last,” Chaplain Laurens Seelye, of the U.
S. Army, declared in his sermon Sunday
night in chapel. Germany reckoning that
America was too interested in self-seeking
commerce to fight, failed to realize her
latent power of self-giving. This unsel-
fishness, formed into personal spiritual
convictions, is the one essential.
“Nothing is inconsistent, with religion
except what is vile,” Chaplain Seelye
stressed. Nowadays it is not incongruous
at a camp sing to follow “Rock of Ages”
with “Good Night, Ladies”—an illustra-
tion of the practical faith that God is all
and in all. What matters is what we
think of God, what, too, the blaspheming
Gott-mitt-uns Junkers thought of God
when they persecuted the Armenians.
Our conception of Christianity is impor-
tant.
“Into our Christianity,” concluded Chap-
lain Seelye, “must be builded a faith in
broad internationalism.” The question is
not whether America has been profoundly
stirred. It asks, “Is anything being se-
curely rebuilt in America? Have we
merely passed through a spasm of altru-
ism, or will a new world be formed in the
spirit of God?”

HONOR IS THEME OF STRONG
VESPER TALK BY M. THURMAN
In one of the most forceful vesper talks
heard here for many months, M. L. Thur-
man ‘19, Senior president, attacked the
low standards of personal honor preva-
lent at college in petty matters.
Although half-way measures in doing
exercise or required reading, afterward
signed for, might not be unanimously con-
demned in the world at large, she said,
technical justification of them here to
ourselves is impossible. The out-and-out
liar she placed on a higher plane than tie
petty offender in matters of honor, in
that he acknowledged his offense to him-
self.
A higher ethical standard throughout
the community she demanded as a neces-
sity for the higher development of indi-
vidual character, and for the justification
of confidence in the college as a whole.

necessity of winning the war,” Dean Taft
said. “Undoubtedly there were mistakes
in the conscription measures—too much
work was required every week, making
too many activities every day in the
week. Still, conscription was necessary
in view of conditions at the time it was
adopted, because many students were not
doing their part and the work was falling
on a few. A great many had signed up
for work and were not doing the work
they had pledged.
“The work is still to be done. It has
proved that the average person ought not
to undertake as much as four hours a
week. Still, everyone should take some
part and should do the work regularly
and conscientiously. I hope the college
will undertake to meet this need.”

- Since the first game of the finals last
Tuesday the Senior defense had stiffened
perceptibly, and the strength of their for-
ward line had not diminished. M. Tyler
"19, captain of Varsity and manager of the
Senior team, played perhaps the prettiest
game on the field, dribbling fast and
shooting three goals, but the rest of the
forward line was not far behind her. In
the defense M. L. Thurman, EB. Lanier
and A. Landon stood out most promi-
nently. G. Hearne shot two brilliant
goals, one of them after a long run up the
field.
For 1922 F. Robbins dribbled speedily,
and M. Krech did good aggressive and de-
fensive work at left half. G. Rhoads, in
goal, resisted many attacks, but was, in

Deadlock on Second
In a hard fought and exciting game, the
Junior second team managed to hold the
Sophomores down to a tie in the second
game of the finals last Friday afternoon.
The first game was won by 1921.
E. Stevens, who made 1920’s only goal
soon after the whistle blew, V. Park ‘20
and T. James ’20 played especially well,
but were poorly backed up. The Sopho-
mores made one goal in the second half,
but missed many chances for a second by
poor shooting. A moment before time
the red, evading 1920’s fullbacks, had a
free shot, but E. Williams, '20’s goal, hit
the ball out just before it went over the
line. The game ended with the score 1-1.

last Thursday. The playing was deter-

preliminaries to 1919 last Wednesday by
a score of 3-0. The: blue team fought
hard, but in spite of the vigorous at-
tempts of G. Hess ’20 to cover both
center-forward and _ right-inside they
could not disguise this weakness from
the opposing halves.
The Senior fullbacks were strong in re-
pelling every attack on their circle. F.
Howell '19 played an excellent game of-
fensively, and when necessary defen-
sively.

FRESHMEN PLAN TO DISTRIBUTE

Arrange System of Points to Prevent
Overwork of Individuals
The overburdening of individual stu-
dents with offices and committee work is
being combatted by 1922 with a system of
points inaugurated last week.
Every class or college office, as well as
membership on any committee, will
count as a certain number of points, and
an amendment has been added to the
class constitution to the effect that no
member of the class may hold offices the
sum of whose points amount to more than
a fixed number, to be decided upon later.
= RATEOSTIEING ADVErTIO§ES. PLease MENTION “Yer coLLecs wees”
With both teams held down to slow
playing by the quarter inch of mud on
the field, Varsity defeated the German-
town Cricket Club “4-2 last Wednesday.
Three alumnz appeared in the German-
town line-up, A. Hawkins '07 as goal, M.
Kirk '10 as center forward, and M. Bacon
18, last year’s Varsity captain, as right
fullback.
Hard hitting and finished teamwork,
particularly on the forward line, charac-
terized the playing of the Germantown
eleven. The Varsity defense was up to
form, but the forward line showed streaks
of weakness, carrying the ball to the vis-
itors’ circle only to lose it by wild shoot-
ing.
M. Kirk '10 scored the first goal of the,
game for Germantown. Two for Varsity
followed, by M. Tyler '19 and D. Rogers
’20. After some good stickwork by G.
Rhoads '22, Varsity goal, Miss Mason of
Germantown tied the score for the first
half with a smashing cross-shot far out
to the right. ~
In the second half Germantown settled
down to a defensive game, broken only
by some swift spurts by Miss Condon at
right wing. In spite of repeated oppor-
tunities to shoot, Varsity pierced the Ger-
mantown blockade only twice, held at bay
largely by the brilliant work of A. Haw-
kins ’07 at goal. The first point of the
half was made by D. Rogers '20, Varsity
center forward. The scoring ended with
the prettiest play of the game, when M.
Tyler ‘19 swept the ball through the Ger-
mantown fullback and shot it with a
clean pass to M. Tyler ’22, who crashed
it in to make a total of 4-2.

RED | CROSS LETTER SAYS
“CARRY ON!"|
A letter from the American Red Cross
War Council, urging continuance of Red
Cross work, has been received by L. Kel-
logg, chairman of the college Red Cross
Committee. “It is most important, in the
face of the rejection of conscription,”
Says Miss Kellogg, “that the college
should still feel a responsibility in attend-
ing the Red Cross work-rooms; and, even
in the fact of the higher cost of living
and low funds after the last Liberty Loan
drive, should make a greater effort than
ever before to go over the top in the
Service Corps quota.” The letter reads:
“On February 10th last year, nearly six
weeks before the United States declared
war, National Red Cross Headquarters
advised its chapters to prepare for war.
That which has followed, in the record of
the Red Cross in helping to win this war
and to relieve the suffering growing out
of it, must bring to Red Cross workers a
deep sense of gratitude for their share
in it all.
“But even with peace, let no one sup-
pose that the work of the Red Cross is
finished. Millions of American boys are
still under arms. Thousands of them are
sick or wounded. Owing to the shortage
of shipping, it may take a year or more
to bring our boys home from France.
But, whatever the time, our protecting
arms must be about them and their fam-
ilies over the whole period which must
elapse before the normal life of peace can
be resumed.
“Our soldiers and sailors are enlisted
until the Commander-in-Chief tells them
there is no more work for them to do in
the war. Let every Red Cross member
and worker show our returning soldiers
and sailors that to care for their health,
welfare and happiness, we are enlisted
with them to the end.
“The cessation of war reveals a picture
of misery such as the world has never
seen before, especially in the many
countries which can not help themselves.
The American people will expect the Red
Cross to continue to act as their agent in
repairing broken spirits and broken
bodies. Peace terms and peace condi-
tions will determine how we may best
minister to the vast stricken areas which
have been harrowed by war, and in this
great act of mercy the heart and spirit of
the American people must continue to be
mobilized through the American Red
Cross.
“On behalf of the Red Cross War Coun-
cil we accordingly ask each member of
our splendid body of workers throughout
the land to bear in mind the solemn obli-
gation which rests upon each one to
CARRY ON. We cannot bate one in-
stant in our efforts or in our spirit. There
will be an abundance of work to do, and
specific advices will be given, but even at
the moment of peace let no Red Cros@
worker falter.
“Our spirits must now call us to show
that it is not the roar of cannon or the
blood of our own alone that directs our
activities, but that a great people will
continue to respond greatly and freely to
its obligation and opportunity to serve
mankind.
“The War Council, American Red Cross.”

influence on him are Christina. Rossetti,
Keats, Blake, and John Skelton. Mr.
Nichols read “The Jolly Yellow Moon,”
“Free Verses,” a satire on academic ex-
travaganza; “The Shadow of Death,”
“The Dead Foxhunter,” “Careers” and
“The Escape.” The last is an account of
the poet’s experiences when severely
wounded and pronounced by the physi-|
cians about to die:
“Life, Life! I can’t be dead, I won't be
dead:
Damned if I'll die for anyone,” I said .

ler’s jam:
And Sleep lurks in the luscious plum
and apple.”
Sassoon Deeply Embittered
A man who does not write as well, but
takes bigger subjects, is Siegfried Sas-
soon. Sassoon, Mr. Nichols said, has suf-
fered more than any of the poets.
“Blighters,” “Died of Wounds,” “The
Hero,” “Does It Matter,” “Suicide in the
Trenches,” “To Any Dead Officer,” and
several poems which will appear in a
new volume, Counterattack, were among
those which Mr. Nichols read to illus-
trate his unrelieved bitterness. ‘Death’s
Brotherhood,” Mr. Nichols explained,
shows the inevitable feeling of the re-
turned soldier that England is no place
for him:
“When I'm asleep, dreaming and drowsed
and warm—
They come, the homeless ones, the noise-
less dead
+ + * * *
And while the dawn begins with slashing
rain
I think of the Battalion in the mud.
When are you going out to them again?
Are they not still your brothers through
our blood?”
Of his own poems, Mr. Nichols read
from proof “The Wilderness,” which is
shortly to appear in The Century; “The
Plaint of a Humble Servant,” “By the
Brook,” and a poem from his book now
in press, Songs of the Enigma.
Mr. Nichols whole purpose, he said be-
fore the lecture, was to counteract the
attempts of some factions in England who
were trying to discredit Herbert Brooke
and other young poets.

PRAGMATISM THE KEYSTONE OF
NEW FRANCE, SAYS DR. CAZAMIEN
New Vigor Evident in National Life
Dr. Cazamien, lieutenant in the French
Army and member of the French Educa-
tional Mission, spoke in Taylor last
Thursday on the future of France, as it
may be inferred from the spirit of reju-
venation seen in every side of French life.
The pragmatist tendency, Dr. Cazamien
declared, is typical of the New France.
The nationalist spirit that has come to
the front in French politics, the transfor-
mation of industry by centralization and
by the introduction of American methods,
the tendency of young Frenchmen to go
into business rather than administration,
all point to the overthrow of the old dog-
matic nationalism. “The purifying gust
of war,” concluded Dr. Cazamien, “has
blown away the older atmosphere of the
end of the last century, leaving an intel-
lectualism of the saner and healthier
The first goal was made by: Cc. Bickley
’21, followed shortly by one for the Grad-
uates. In spite of the swiftness of the
first half. In spite of the swiftness of the
Graduate forward line the score remained
a tie at the end of the first half. In the
second half Scrub-Varsity played with
out a right inside. The Graduates shot
a second goal, making the final score 2-1.

pecially that of the Red Cross Committee,
has been to increase their —?
nearly 100 per cent.
Last year, up to Thanksgiving, the Red
Cross workroom, open only. in the eve-
ning and not on Saturday, averaged an
attendance of 18 workers per day. This
year the room, open afternoons, evenings,
and Saturdays, shows attendance of 35
per day. During the six weeks before
Thanksgiving last year the total number
of workers was 568, compared with 732,
who have come during the four weeks of
Red Cross work this semester.
The impetus which conscription has
given to knitting machine work resulted
in the instalment of two new machines.
Six workers can be accommodated every
evening, as contrasted with the two per
evening of last year, and the output, in
spite of some irregularity of attendance,
has been correspondingly great. Knitting
sweaters, and other hand-knitting, which
cannot be counted for conscription, has
suffered.
Tnder conscription 110 workers signed
up this fall for work at the Community
Center, as contrasted with the 50 or 60
who volunteered last year. Of this 110
pledging work, 40 have withdrawn since
conscription has been abolished.
The Junk and War Salvage Committee
owes to conscription more. regular collec-
tions, according to a statement by B.
Warburg, chairman: The number of
workers on the committee is the same as
last year.
For the first time, under conscription,
undergraduates have done typewriting
and filing for the Department of Social
Research. The typewriting has been
done chiefly on government work in con-
nection with an investigation of married
women in industry which the department
is carrying on.
Several war courses have been part of
the conscription program. Seventy stu-
dents have attended a class in typewrit-
ing, and others courses in Social Better-
ment and Civilian Relief, and Record
Keeping.
HIKE TO VALLEY FORGE FRIDAY
A hike from Devon to Valley Forge and

A Sophomore has requested that jump-
ing rope for 30 minutes before breakfast
be counted as a period of exercise. She
says she has gained 17 lbs. since she
came to college this fall and none of the
present forms of exercise help her to re-
duce. It has been suggested that this
could be signed up Ph.R., “Physical Re-

UNDERGRADUATES WANT DATES OF
CHRISTMAS VACATION CHANGED
Pian Involves No Loss of Academic Work
A movement to change the dates of the
Christmas vacation in order to avoid the
necessity of coming back on a Friday was
launched at a meeting of the Undergrada-
uate Association last week. It was sug-
gested that the vacation should extend
from Friday, December 20th, to Monday,
January 6th, instead of from December
19th to January 3d as the dates now
stand. This plan would give an extra
week-end without the loss of any aca-
demic work.
D. Chambers '19, L. Wood ’19, and M.
Carey ’20 have been appointed by the Un-
dergraduate Board to discuss with Presi-
change.
