Odds Give Water-Polo Exhibition
Visiting Athletic Director Compliments
Teams
An inter-odd water-polo match, staged
last Monday in honor of Miss Homans,
head of the Physical Training School run
in connection with Wellesley College,
went to 1919 with a score of 42. Two
Juniors played on the Senior team, H.
Holmes ’20 scoring three of the goals.
Exhibition diving preceded the game.
Miss Homans, under whom Miss Anna
Branson was trained, is making a tour
of schools and colleges, inspecting the
physical training departments. Welles-
ley, although one of the largest of the
women’s colleges, with 1600 students,
has no pool as yet, but is hoping to build
one soon. Exercise requirements there
differ from those at Bryn Mawr in that all
exercise missed on account of illness
must be made up. No exercise is re-
quired for Juniors and Seniors.
Complimenting Bryn Mawr upon its
water-polo players, Miss Homans de-
clared them “a ee lot of
swimmers.”

WASHINGTON AND THE THREE
MUSQUETEERS CELEBRATE
Dance Given in Honor of Tenth Anniver-
sary of Gymnasium
A George Washington’s Birthday dance
to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the
opening of the gymnasium was given in
the gymnasium Saturday night by the
Athletic Association.
The three musqueteers, Old Bill, Bert
and Alf, evidently finding the gymnasium
“the better ole,” sang “Carrying On”
with much enthusiasm. George Washing-
ton, with the alternating personality of
H. Zinsser "20 and C. Stillwell '22, hon-
ored the party with his august presence
and apparently saved enough cherries
from the proverbial tree to decorate the
ice cream given freely by the Athletic
Association.
A scrub Varsity orchestra furnished the
music. No admission was charged.

ENGLISH ARCHBISHOP TO SPEAK
SPEAK IN SUNDAY CHAPEL
Was a Leader in Oxford Movement
The Venerable John Harold Greig, who
is archdeacon of Worcester Cathedral,
the oldest cathedral in England, will con-
duct chapel on Sunday. He has been rec-
tor of St. Paul’s, Lorrimore Square, and
at present is rector at Hartlebury, where
he has been since 1911. In 1909 and
1915 he was Select Speaker at Cambridge.
Archbishop Greig is in America on the
invitation of the bishops and clergymen
of the Episcopal Church. He will speak
in New York, Philadelphia, Boston and
Washington. He will remain here for
three or four weeks.
In 1916 he was in America for the Gen-
eral Conference of the Episcopal Church.
He is well known as an exponent of the
Oxford movement and as one of the lead-
ers of the present spiritual awakening
that is beginning in Bngland.
He is a cousin by marriage of Marion
Frost '20.
TREASURED RELICS IN
TROPHY CLUB COLLECTION
Files of the “Lantern,” “Tipyn o’ Bob”
and the “Review,” and of the News are
being placed on the second floor of Pem-
broke East, through the efforts of the
Trophy Club. Athletic pictures of all the
classes have been rehung there, and a
picture of the first class graduated from
Bryn Mawr. Lanterns and trophies have
been rearranged on the first floor.
A canvass of the Seniors for money to
put name-plates in their rooms will soon
be conducted. Fifty dollars given to the
Trophy Club by the alumne will be used
to buy new cases and to frame the pic-
tures.
Some of the trophies which the club
possesses are: a string of buttons, one
from each member of the first class in
college; a copy of the first Sophomore
rules; and one of the first college lan-
terns which was made of silver and was
only two inches high.
BRYN MAWR DELEGATES TO
ATTEND EASTERN ATHLETIC
ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE
Two members of the Athletic Board
will be sent as delegates to the Eastern
Athletic Association Conference to be
held at Mt. Holyoke April 10-1l1th. The
delegates will be appointed by the board
and the appointment will be ratified by
the members of the association.
This conference was held for the first
time last year at Cornell. Bryn Mawr
was invited but was unable to attend. It
is the eastern division of the conferences
which have been organized in different
parts of the states.
CLASS PLAYS RE-ESTABLISHED—NO MORE VARSITY DRAMATICS
neem
Susier Play This Spring Will be
Eomedy of 18th: Contry
G. WOODBURY STAGE MANAGER
“The Beaux’ Stratagem,” by George
Farquhar, will be the Senior play, to be
given April 5th. Permission was given
by the Undergraduate Association at a
meeting last Thursday. President Thomas
has approved the play, provided all
Seniors taking part have their merits,
have passed their grals, and are not in
Varsity dramatics or the Glee Club per-
formance.
“The Beaux’ Stratagem” has been
called “the earliest treatment of the di-
vorce problem.” It is a roadside play of
the early 18th century, with scenes laid
in a wayside inn and an old country
house, in contrast to the drawing-room
settings of most plays of the time. Dr.
Chew has asserted in revising the play
for acting.
Committees for the play are: Chair-
man of the committee which selected the
play, E. Fuller; stage manager, G. Wood-
bury; assistant stage manager, bE.
Fuller; business manager, L. Wood.

PROFESSOR SOARES TO LEAD
Cc. A. WEEK-END CONFERENCE
Professor Theodore Soares, of the Uni-
versity of Chicago, will lead the Christian
Association Conference to be held the
week-end of April 12th.
Professor Soares spoke at Bryn Mawr
twice last spring, lecturing just before
Easter on “Win the Next War Now” and
preaching later in chapel. He is the sec-
ond of the Seniors’ three choices for a
speaker for baccalaureate.
The subject of the conference is still
undecided. Suggestions will be welcomed
by E. Biddle, C. A. president.
Signed Room Contracts Due March 24
All undergraduates expecting to return
to college next year must have room con-
tracts signed by their parents and sub-
mit these contracts, with a room fee of
$15, to the Secretary and Registrar of
the College on or before Monday, March
24th. Contracts have been placed in the
hall libraries or may be obtained from
the wardens. Directions for filling them
out are posted on the hall bulletin boards.
Students who do not intend to return
to college next year are requested to in-
form the Secretary and Registrar by
March 24th.
Large Majority Vote to Return Next
Year to Old System of Class
Plays Without Varsity
ALTERNATIVE WAS ONE CLASS PLAY
Class plays will be reéstablished next
year, to the exclusion of Varsity dra-
matics, according to a vote of 133 to 9 in
an Undergraduate meeting last Thursday.
Each class will give, beside Freshman
and Banner show, a Sophomore play,
Junior Senior supper play, and Senior
play. Class plays have been given up for
the last two years as a war measure.
Varsity dramatics were introduced last
year aS a substitute for May-day, and
continued this year by unanimous vote.
A scheme to work in both Varsity dra-
matics and class plays was suggested by
Elizabeth Fuller '19, chairman of the
Senior Play Committee. According to
this plan, only three class performances
would be allowed, Freshman Show, Ban-
ner Show, and a Senior play, probably
subject to restrictions about merits, orals,
and participation in Glee Club perform-
ance and Varsity dramatics. That the
play should be a revival of an old one,
was also stipulated,
That class plays afford more fun, and
that they are as well presented as last
year’s Varsity play, were reasons given
for return to class plays. May-day, it
was urged, would take the place of Var-
sity dramatics in drawing material from
the whole college. Another considera-
tion was that Seniors restricted in their
choice would always give up Varsity dra-
matics for their class play.
500 Undergraduates at National
Conference ;- { &¢")
M. L. Thurman, B. M. Delegate, Tells of
Aims
Returning from Evanston yesterday M.
L. Thurman described the National Stu-
dent Conference which she attended as
Bryn Mawr’s representative last week-
end “as the first of its kind to be made
up entirely of undergraduate students
from all over the United States.” About
five hundred students attended the con-
ference, representing almost every col-
lege in the country with the exception of
Wellesley and Smith.
The keynote of the conference, accord-
Vassar,
ing to Miss Thurman, was the new world
and the individual’s responsibility and a
realization of the need for Christ as a
leader, Christ expressed in terms of hu-
manity.
Mrs. Robert E. Speer, president of the
Y. W. C. A. and mother of M. Speer ’22,
presided.
Among the other speakers was Miss
Agnes Nestor, president of the Trade
Woman's League of Chicago, who spoke
on “Industrial Women and the War.”
Miss Nestor has worked for ten years in
a factory and is in favor of special legis-
lation for women, and believes that it
will not interfere with them industrially.
Dr. Merrill, who recently preached here,
spoke on “Jesus Christ and the New
World,” and Mrs. Eddy spoke on mis-
sions in a lecture entitled “Industrial
Women Around the World.” Dr. Harry
Ward, who will preach here this spring,
addressed the conference on “Essential
Biements in a New World.” Miss Thur-
man will tell about the conference in de-
tall Sunday in Vespers.

Free Admission
Once there was a time when free en-
tertainménts were the rule and not the
exception. The party in the gymnasium
Saturday night was a welcome reminder
of other days and other customs.
“Pay as you enter” is a good slogan as
long as there is a war to be carried on.
But it is to be hoped that the successful
money makers developed during the past
year or two will be able in time to forget
the box office and return to the pre-war
basis of art for art’s sake.

A Stitch in Time
A Bryn Mawr spring, with its distrac-
tions of balmy days, cherry blossoms and
picnics, is almost upon us. Before it
comes and paralyzes our powers of re-
sistance why not find refuge from the
February rains in the Library?
“Far be it from us to hang crépe on
the door,” but “a stitch in time saves
nine.” When the news burst like a
thunderbolt on the college last year that
all students whose work was below a de-
sired standard would “be shipped from
Bryn Mawr” there was a storm of pro-
test. The threatened rule was held over,
but will go into effect this year. Let us
“obey that impulse” and work, for the
night is coming.
Blue Monday
Hilda Matilda woke from a peaceful
sleep with the inevitable weekly realiza-
tion that it was Morday. For the first
time she appreciated James Thomson’s
longing for absolute oblivion. A German
oral at 7.45 obviously stood between her
and her muffin. Hilda Matilda sighed,
counted three, and leapt bravely to the
window. Today the frog, preserved in
formaldehyde for a week, must be exam-
ined and dissected!
Even the bright prospects of a trip to
town on Friday were dimmed by chilly
thoughts of drill and water-polo to be en-
dured in the same afternoon. One last
faint hope rose within Hilda Matilda.
The mail was yet to come—and he
usually wrote on Sundays. Hope ful-
filled—her room-mate enters and hands
her a card of invitation—one of those
neatly printed little cards requesting her
presence at the gym on Thursday night—
admission, 50 cents.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
(The Editors do not hold themselves
responsible for opinions expressed in this
column.)
To the Editor of the College News:
We would like to remind those who
come to chapel on Sunday evening that
everything that goes on in the audience is
perfectly obvious to the speaker. Com-
mon politeness demands courteous out-
ward attention at least. Even though
unusual circumstances arise, they do not
justify thoughtlessness. All who heard
him last year, remember Dr. Leuba’s
strong plea for reverence at a chapel serv-
ice, if not on one’s own account, at least
Out of respect for those around.

A Bates Club is being formed of all the
people in college who have worked at
Bates House. The purpose of the club is
to arouse interest in the vacation house.

GERMANY WILL SEE
VICTORY LOAN DRIVE
Campaigns to be Carried On in Thirty-
nine American Colonies
American war posters displayed on
German public buildings will be one of
the phases of the Victory Liberty Loan
campaign in the army of occupation. To
give the Germans “a live wire demonstra-
tion of how a Liberty Loan drive is car-
ried on in the United States” is the sol-
diers’ declared object. “Carry the Vic-
tory Liberty Loan campaign into Hun-
land” will be the slogan.
Drives will also be held in all the
American colonies. Posters and badges
have been sent to colonies in thirty-nine
countries, all of which will work for this
“clean-up loan” just as they have done
for the earlier ones.
THE RETURN OF LITTLE RACHEL
Until she recollected herself, little
Rachel almost skipped as she descended
from the Paoli local at Bryn Mawr. She
had not been here since the armistice
had been signed.
Poor little Rachel had not been per-
mitted to enter college with the Class of
1922 as she had planned. She had been
ready for college since her eleventh
birthday, but had been waiting for her
thirteenth to gain a more mature point
of view before entrance. But she had
found the Child Labor laws against her.
She had a character of the utmost integ-
rity, but temptation might have proved

But can we? See William James’ Psy-

.| arity,” said Rachel, “and I haye won-
,|dered why I seem to see no letters in
defense of the present system, although
‘there is always much space devoted to
‘the question.”
“Yes,” said Aunt Desdemona, “exercise
must now be sworn to once a day at least,
sometimes twice, except Sundays.”
“And then there is religious exercise,”
said little Rachel.
“True,” replied her Aunt.
“IT have seen that the undergraduate
face now seems flushed with the rosy
glow of health, but I cannot help noting
too the frown of worry on many a brow.
Possibly the exercise question is in-
volved there. Possibly, though, it may be
worry as to the immortality of the soul.
I have heard that that is a burning ques-
tion.”
“Their own souls, or the Bolshevists’?”
inquired Aunt Desdemona.
“I cannot discover that any conclusions
are reached about either,” she replied.
“Inefficiency! Possibly, though, this may
be traced to the inefficiency of the psy-
chological entrance tests applied.”
“Of course they are not yet perfect,”
said her Aunt.
“I realize that,” said Rachel. “As yet
there has been no effort to classify and
compare the relative mental prowess of
the wire-haired and shaggy types of
moron.”
“Have you noticed any encouraging
signs?” asked her Aunt, astonished at
little Rachel’s growing power of analysis.
“One thing only,” she replied. “There
has been no military speaker for some
weeks. The industry of waving for Ian
has quite died out. The autograph still
seems to be holding its own, but its com-
mercial value is depreciating.”
All little Rachel’s longing to be one of
the students had come back to her. Yet
she had not recovered fully. That night
Aunt Desdemona heard a noise from her
room. She found little Rachel leaping
clockwise, with rhythmic motion of arm
and leg and muttering as she did so,
“Over there—over their—over their way
——” Her mind was growing confused.
Aunt Desdemona brought her to with
difficulty. The visit to college had
thrown little Rachel into a fit of fever,
caused by acceleration of the motor
neurons. They had been over-stimulated
by the changes she had noted. Her Aunt
Desdemona, in speaking to a News re-
porter, stated that it was not so much
the idea of the new exercise regulations
that overcame her as the realization that
she is not yet to be admitted to college
even on a par with the more ancient
moron, but declares that she will be
about in a few weeks, and when stronger,
may petition the faculty.
EXERCISE FOR EVERYONE
TO BE INSURED AT COLUMBIA
With the return of the students from
camps to colleges an attempt is being
made to make college athletics more gen-
eral and thus to develop better stand-
ards for Varsity teams. Columbia Uni-
versity is putting into effect a plan de-
vised by the Faculty making athletics
and gymnasium work compulsory for all
undergraduates who are not physically
unfit.
A further step toward making partici-
pation in sports more general is the re-
quirement that every undergraduate pay
annually a $10 student activities fee, at
least half of which is to go to the ath-
letic association. A third measure is a
committee of undergraduate managers to
advise graduate managers and exchange
ideas between students and university au-
thorities.
Speaking to a News reporter on the pres-
ent situation in Russia, Dr. Lingelbach |
‘said:
“The ‘Bolehevints are attempting tin
work out in Russia the most daring ex-
periment in government that the world
has ever made, a Marxian social democ-.
racy embodying at the same time cer-
tain anarchistic dectrines. Only the pro-
letariat is given the right to vote and
hold office. Armed themselves and aided
by their Red Guards, the lower classes
are fighting the disfranchised, unarmed
nobility, clergy, bourgeoisie, mild revolu-
tionaries and even well-to-do peasants or
‘reactionary workmen.’ This is simply
class warfare waged on behalf of the low-
est social strata. International in charac-
ter, it appeals to the ‘Reds’ of every na-
tion to fight the common flag.”
Outlines Topics of Course
The impossibility of giving such theo-
ries even a temporary working basis
among millions of densely ignorant peo-
ple will be considered in detail and the
following topics taken up:
1. The isolation resulting from geo-
graphical conditions and from the delib-
erate policy of an arbitrary government.
2. Tzardom — first imposed through
need of self-defense and continued in the
name of national necessity, until the peo-
ple found themselves enslaved and help-
less.
3. The status of the masses, all of
whom are undeveloped, uneducated and
overburdened.
4. The status of the intellectual class,
which has no outlet for energy in public
service except in bureaucracy or army,
both disliked by the better type of men.
Slight opportunity for professional or
business careers. No free press or free
speech.
Young Radicals Proselyte Peasants
Dr. Lingelbach states that the course
includes a study of the beginning of revo-
lutionary feeling about 1870, when the
young Russians realized that their cause
was hopeless unless the slumbering mil-
lions could be aroused. In order to ac-
complish this aim the young radicals went
as missionaries to the ignorant peasants
and told them that the Tzar was not their
“little father,” but a cruel tyrant and that
they had a right to the land they needed.
This proselyting continued until it is said
that by 1917 every village in Russia had
been affected. In 1890 the industrial rev-
olution began and -the revolutionaries be-
came factory workers in order to teach
the lower classes that they must own the
factories.
“Thus among an ignorant, inexperi-
enced people, with only crudely devel-
oped social, political and religious condi-
tions, was sown the seed of extreme radi-
calism,” added Dr. Lingelbach, “and the
appeal has hot been to ideals but to sim-
ple primitive needs.”
INTERNATIONAL UNITY IDEAL OF
FEDERATION, SAYS A. LANDON
“The rule of Christ between nations is
the only means of making an interna-
tional world and the World’s Student
Christian Federation is a channel through
which each of us can help to make this
ideal a possibility,” said A. Landon ‘19
last Sunday in Vespers. “Codperation is
essential to the League of Nations and
codperation means nothing more than
love toward one another, which is the
basis of Christianity. We owe our duty
toward our country, but we must also live
up to the ideals of world citizenship for
which the federation stands; we must
put aside personal desires and acknowl
edge our obligation to a new interna-
tional order.”

‘Pray don’t debate with me!’ he said,
‘T must not waste a pearl.’
He dreamt he saw a telegram from maid-
ens much enthused;
He looked again and saw he had politely
been refused.
‘My pride is wrecked in either case,’
He said, ‘I feel ill used.’
She thought she saw a tiger-cat a-peering

She looked again and found it was the

BIG FOUR MAY BE FORMED
AS BIG THREE’S RIVAL
Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell and
Dartmouth Consider Athletic Alliance
An intercollegiate alliance to take in all
branches of sports may soon be formed
between Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell
and Dartmouth as the outcome of a con-
ference held at the University of Penn-
sylvania last Saturday.
The socalled Big MThree—Harvard,
Yale, and Princeton—are becoming so
closely affiliated that other colleges fear
they may be left out in the cold, says
the New York “Times.” Hence this pro-
posed alliance of a “Big Four” on the
same order. The plan was first discussed
at a meeting in New York City several
weeks ago.
UNION OF CAPITAL AND LABOR
FOR PUBLIC SERVICE FORECAST
Louise Wood '19 Cites International
Labor Peace Conference as Hopeful
Sign for Future Co-operation
The division of capital and labor and
the means of bringing about co-operation
between them were discussed in the Re-
construction Class led by L. Wood '19
last Wednesday evening.
“During the war, labor and capital
united in the aim of a large output and
reached economic efficiency, but it was
only temporary,” said Miss Wood. Now
the employers are out for big salaries and
the employee for high wages.
In order to break down the prejudice
of years employers must go more than
half way.
Labor parties only accentuate the
lines between capital and labor, Miss
Wood showed. A better means of bring-
ing the two together would be a liberal
progressive party including the best rep-
resentatives of all parties who had as
their common aim public service.
One of the most promising signs of
future co-operation is the International
Labor Peace Conference to be held in
England, said Miss Wood. The Confer-
ence will remain in session during the
settling of the peace terms of the League
of Nations and will consist of twenty rep-
resentatives from capital and twenty
from labor.
Miss Wood was assisted in the discus-
sion group by H. Huntting '19, F. Day '19,
D. Hall "19 and P. Smith '22.
REELING AND WRITHING CLUB
- WILL BE NAME OF READING GROUP
Vachel Lindsay’s Poems Among Those
Read at First Meeting
The Reeling and Writhing Club was
christened last Thursday at the first read-
ing meeting, attended by about eighteen .
members. Vachel Lindsay's “General
William Booth Enters Heaven” was in-
cluded in the reading, which was all
poetry. Fragments were also read and
discussed from the Young Elizabethans,
Nichols, Sorley and Graves, as well as
from Winifred Letts, Wilfred Gibson,
Dunsany, Yeats, Ralph Hodgson, Edwin
Arlington Robinson, and John Russell
McCarthy.
Several of the books, belonging to
members of the club, have been placed
in the New Book Room.
BETTER?
ASKS DR. STEWART
“Not how can I live a fairly decent, up-
right life, but how can I live a better life?
is the perennial question,” said Dr.
Stewart in his sermon Sunday night.
“Age and youth both ask this question
and youth demands proof.
“No one who asks the question honestly
can fail to find the answer, which is sim-
ply this—through following the teachings
of Christ. Paul realized this when he
gave up his old ideals of religion to find
tbleasing and service in following the pre-
HOW BE
cepts of Christ.”

CIVILIAN RELIEF CLASS
VISITS REFORMATORY
Will Inspect Other Institutions
Luncheon at Sleighton Farm, the girls’
department of the Glen Mills Reforma-
tory, was last Saturday’s program for
Miss Kingsbury’s Civilian Relief Class.
The class was shown through the build-
ings, and watched the girls at work.
Originally the reformatory was the
House of Refuge, an old school-house in
Philadelphia, surrounded by high fences.
Through the efforts of Mrs. Falconer, of
Chicago, the institution was moved into
the country and run on the cottage plan.
When a girl arrives, she is kept three
months in the strictly supervised Recep-
tion cottage, then transferred to one of
the attractive colonial Honor cottages,
under a system of self-government. Each
cottage is superintended by a young col-
lege graduate. It consists of a living
room, dining-room, kitchen, and individ-
ual bedrooms, all kept in order by the
girls.
Training in housework is given, beside
the regular schooling. Girls work for a
certain length of time in laundry, kitchen,
etc., to prepare for domestic service, or
care of their own homes. Gardening and
farm work are the business of the
summer.
Entertainments, like movies or dramat-
ics, are given in a big assembly hall,
equipped with a stage. On Saturday,
Washington’s birthday, parties were be-
ing planned by different cottages.
Visits to various public institutions
have been planned by Miss Kingsbury for
every Saturday this semester. The class
has already investigated the Philadelphia
Municipal Court and Children’s Detention
Home, and next Saturday will make a
tour of the Charity Organization Building.
SILVER BAY VESPERS PLANNED
Grace Tyler, president of the Vassar
Christian Association 1916-17, and Miss
Le Seur, business manager of last year’s
Conference at Silver Bay, have been
asked to speak on Silver Bay at Vespers
Sunday, April 6th. Miss Tyler is the sis-
ter of K. Tyler '19.
Lantern slides of pictures taken at last
summer’s conference will be shown by
the Religious Meetings Committee. Lists
for all who wish to go to Silver Bay to
sign will be posted the same week. Dele-
gates will be chosen directly after
Easter.
1920 Gives First Class Party
The Juniors gave their first class party
of the year this afternoon on the third
floor of Denbigh. Among the stunts was
an interpretation of “Columbine Awak-
ened by a Kiss,” given by M. R. Brown
and A. Rood and a mute chorus led by I.
Arnold. Music was furnished by the
class orchestra.
The committee in charge of the class
parties is: B. Zilker, chairman; M. Hoag,
M. L. Mall, D. Allen, E. Brace, H. Hum-
phreys and D. Smith.
elon. 3 ‘Larned Professor of American |
| History at Yale. The idea of this work,
new in American historical literature, is
“to present the entire history of our
country in the living form of a series of
short narratives, each having a unity of
real vision of the development of this
country from the beginning to the pres-
ent day.” Ten volumes have already
been published, and the Library will pur-
chase the remaining forty, one by one,
as they are edited. So valuable is this
set that no other library in Philadelphia
is able to buy it at present.
A set of Barrie’s plays, which Scrib-
ner’s is publishing in their first edition,
is being added to the Library a few at
a time. On the shelves now are The
Admirable Crichton, Quality Street, and
Echoes of the War. Other books in the
New Book Room are “The Roll Call,” by
Arnold Bennett, the title of which is mis-
leading, since it is not a war-novel, but
rather a “story of the England of Five
Town's provincialism. and London assur-
ance, blundering towards a great hour of
decision.” (Nation.)
“The Bolsheviki and World Peace,” by
Leon Trotzky, with introduction by Lin-
coln Steffens. “The red leader of the red
wing of the Revolutionary party gives his
views of the war, its causes and effects,
especially upon international Socialism
and the “World Revolution.”
“Anthology of Magazine Verse for
1918,” edited by William Stanley Braith-
waite. According to the Nation, a collec-
tion on a lower level than usual, whose
“romantic poems have a tendency to run
to mere prettiness if they run to any-
thing as respectable.” Mr. Stanley him-
self says: “My purpose, as an innova-
tion, was to make the 1918 anthology as
lyrical as possible to exemplify the qual-
ity of this achievement in current Ameri-
can verse.”
“The German Myth,” by Gustavus
Myers, mentioned by President Thomas
in Chapel because it “proves conclusively,
from official German documents, that
Germany’s claim to ideal social condi-
tions is but a general part of German
propaganda.”
“Another Sheaf,” Galsworthy.
“Oscar Wilde: His Life and Impres-
sions,” by Frank Harris (with Memories
of Oscar Wilde, by Bernard Shaw).
A novelty in the New Book Room is the
shelf full of new books which the mem-
bers of the Reeling and Writhing Club
have placed there for each other’s use.

y. People have said that Italy
Italy for ulterior motives of Germany.
Italy has been the international goat for
some years and had to renew the treaty
to preserve peace.
The Italian people, however, clamored
for war and the repudiation of the Triple
Alliance in August, 1914. Italy was weak
then from her recent war with Turkey.
None the less she spent in the European
War two-thirds of her total wealth, suf-
fering great privation from lack of food.
At one time her soldiers were given a
choice of five chestnuts or seven dried
figs for breakfast and it was impossible
to buy a loaf of bread in Italy. The army
under Diaz and the navy, with its skillful
bomb trailing on torpedoes, did great
work. Mr. Eberlein declared, “Italy won
the victory which really ended the war.”
Mr. Bberlein did not bring his slides of
Dalmazian architecture owing to a mis-
take, but had with him several plates of
old palaces and churches which he passed
around among the audience. The terri-
tory of Dalmazia is claimed now by both
Italy and the Jugo-Slavs. Italy claims the
territory on the grounds that the people
of Dalmazia are Italian and want an Ital-
ian government, and that the Italian
coast will be defenseless without this ter-
ritory. The Jugo-Slavs base their claim
to the territory on the fourteenth century
Hungarian claim and threaten another
massacre of Saint Bartholomew in case
of Italy’s acquiring the land. The Jugo-
Slavs are not a responsible nation and
must be looked out for. Italy has tried to
help them, but, like the Serbians, they do
not appreciate her help. The Ground
Order of the Orient, the Peace-at-any-
Price Socialists, and the old French ultra-
Montaigne party, have united in hostility
to Italy and propaganda for the Jugo-
Slavs.
