WALTER DE LA MARE —
LECTURES ON POETRY
Craftsmanship More Than Piecing
Together of Words or Capacity

VERSE MUST BE MUSICAL
Dorothy
Mr. Walter de la Mare, English poet
and novelist, delivered the Ann, Sheble
Memorial Lecture in Taylor Hall last Fri-
day night, speaking on “Craftsmanship in
Poetry.”
When we speak of Craftsmanship, he
said, we mean solely method of execu-
tion, To understand. this, look at a poem
not only as a whole, but in its parts. As
you may dissect a daisy, petal by petal,
and discover the marvelous workmanship
of every part, so you may analyze a poem
to find its true perfection. And a poem,
unlike a daisy, can always be put together
again. °
Words give pleasure, first, as sounds
and, second, by their formation in our
throats.
about words: opén vowels delight the
ear more than closed., It has been said
that b and u are to be found in every mas-
terpiece of prose. We enjoy assonance,
alliteration. Good prose should be musi-
cal; good verse must be. Craftsmanship
consists in arranging sounds in their har-

PENNSYLVANIA, NEW TO GAME
’ TS BADLY BEATEN BY VARSITY
Lee ’25, Stars Against Visitors
Guarding
Varsity easily defeated Pennsylvania in
a hockey game Tuesday afternoon, Oc-
tober 28, with the score of 14-0.
Pennsylvania, which this year for -the
first time has its own hockey field and
consequehtly has not played much before,
was obviously outplayed by varsity, whose
greatest advantage in the uneven game
was-superior team work.
The ball was constantly in front of the
Pennsylvania goal, for the varsity for-
wards were quick in rushing down,,. while
the fullbacks, lingering near the 50-yard
line, proved practically impossible to pass to,
D. Lee, ’25, and H. Tuttle, ’28, were clever
in eluding their backs, outrunning the
field and shooting from the’edge of the
circle, as the Pennsylvania goal ran out
in a vain endeavor to stop their shots.
The Brown forwards, in spite of the large
score, neglected many opportunities to
shoot.
Second half started with a spurt. of
‘speed on the part of the visitors, whose
“team was fast; but who failed to mark
their opponents. They had little organi-
zation, and “gained nothing on their free
hits, Varsity kept them from scoring and
D. Lee, ’25, made many long goals, while
_B. Loines, ’28, caught the ball on the fly
at the centre from S. Walker, ’26’s, stick
and carried it down the field in a spec-
tacular run just before the whistle blew.

CAN WE HAVE PHILOSOPHY AND
RELIGION, ASKS DR. MEIKLEJOHN
America’s Confidence in Common Sense
Undeserved, Says Educator
“All our American education is: suffer-
ing and in a large measure failing because
we have no philosophy and no religion to
teach,” said Dr; Alexander Meiklejohn in
chapel last Wednesday night, in the first
of-a-series of talks on education.” ~~
| “Education,” he explained, “is the at-
tempt so to equip people that they can
live better. The,trouble is that we do
not know what to teach. Weare living in
a time ‘when thought systems have been
shattered, The problem is to find for our
teachers and students some starting point
by which they. can build up an interpreta-
tion of life.
“America is hard to educate; Americans
as a whole think it is easy to know the
world, They have confidence in their
y}common sense and their common Senet
doesn’t deserve it. With regard to’ all
things of any importance, Americans
characteristically think no study is needed.
Only in regard to the minutiae, the me-
chanisms of life do we investigate. Amefi-.-
cans realize the need of study if they are
going to make shoes, but in regard to
religion, philosophy, morals and social ar-|
rangements they feel they can know by
intuition what to think.
“One question about philosophy and
religion is, tan we have either? Men had
pieced their knowledge of the world to-
gether into a picture puzzle. Science
spoilt the picture. A dreadful fear is on
us that we can never, put the -picture to-

DOWN BEFORE VARSITY TEAM
Visitor’s Individual Play Fails to Break

In a game of brilliant defensive play
Varsity defeated, 6-0, the Merion Cricket
Club team playing. with ony’ four for-
wards.
The remarkapl: alia of the Merion

kept the score down. The wryn’ Mawr
backs also played with sureness and
speed; the close teamyorkof the Walkers
and J. Seeley, ’27, waseespecially helpful.
Scoring. only one goal in the -first half,
made by D. Lee, ’25, centre- ‘forward, Var-
sity made a splendid rush in the second
half, D. Lee again’ shooting the goal.
After that a long goal by H. Tuttle, ’28,
from the edge of the circle, and three
more swift, clean shots by D. Lee, rolled
up the score. Short dribbles by B. Loines,
28, right-wing, quick passes to centre, and.
hard shots into the corner of the goal,
were responsible for these tallies.
Throughout the game the play was gen-
‘erally concentrated at Merion’s goal. Fre-
-quent fouls. were called for kicking and
hooking.

CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION STARTS
DRIVE FOR VARIOUS ACT IVITIES
Maids’ Classes, Student Friendship, Among
Those Aided By Fund
During the coming week the Christian
Association will hold its afinual drive.
Instead of passing every Sunday evé-
ning a plate for the support of its chari-
ties, C. A. asks its members once a year
to pledge money to those items on its
budget which interest them most. °
This year the items on the budget are
as follows:
Maids’ Night School.
Student Friendship Fund.
Bates’ House.
Dr. James’ Hospital, China.
Miss Tsuda’s School, Japan.
Unassigned. m
The Night School is still a growing en-
terprise which needs help to get fairly
under way. Started by girls here who
felt keenly that while Bryn Mawr was .
supporting far-away charities it was ignor-
ing the maids on its own campus, the
school now has classes in English, good -
citizenship and personal economics, .and
it hopes to expand still more.” Its chief
need now is books. A whole class of
thirty have to study out of the same Carer’
Book of English Verse.
The Student Friendship Fund tries to
strengthen international peacé by helping
the poor students in other lands, chiefly in
Russia and Central Europe. These stu-
dents have insufficient clothing, inadequate
housing, no medical care, no books and
little food. In order to get money to
study, they have to support themselves
by working mariy hours a day. | °

obedience to that bell which makes an alarm

WEMBLEY AND EDUCATION

which are in harmony with, and of value to

lation of life into rules to the freedom of
personal choice and initiative. But in, the
belief that many of us areelooking for a
break.in the net which binds us ever
tighter, we offer the following sugges-
tions, in the hope that they will call forth
others: ;
(1) Varsity distiation inérend of class
plays. This would result in more finished
productions, would help still further to do
away with “Class Spirit,’ and would make
dramatics open only to those sincerely and
whole-heartedly interested in them, It
might also he a step toward such a scheme
as the Harvard 47. Workshop.
(2) Class song books to be abolished
or greatly reduced in size, for few songs
are worth hahding down.
(3). Song practices to be rareand only
for those who want to sing. The custom
of fines for non-attendance at such prac-
tices (except for Lantern Night): is un-
worthy of our intelligence. The joy of
singing lies in its spontaneity; remove that
and you remove much that makes singing
| delightful.

work, It is their task and their privilege.

WE JUDGE AS THEY PASS
~ “But he left me all up in the air; he
gave no practical solution to the prob-
lem.” This, a current criticism of Dr.
Meiklejohn’s lecture, is a remark some-
-what characteristic of a certain attitude in
college.
We are mentally parasitic. We exact

trouble to listen shall hand us. a ready-

can inertly annex until a better on@is in
turn presented. Our philosophies of life
are nothing but loose-leaf notebooks inte
which we passively insert the ideas of
. suecessive speakers like so many assorted
pages.
If a lecturer does not. give us one
definite, concrete idea which slips into
that notebook, if we cannot sum up his
attitude toward the universe in a few terse
words, we summarily pronounce that he is
“constructive.” We blandly expect
our speakers to have quack, portable
remedies for all the ills of life. What the

great opportunities for self-development in
Australia. The chances are ten to one that

What has this to do with education? Who
are the “edtcated” people? They are those
who can and do take time from satisfying
the economic: demands upon life to devote
to intellectual pursuits. This man does not

life in Australia as he did in England where
theré was always another man to take his

under compulsory school laws; and she has

MISS TSUDA’S SCHOOL IN JAPAN
‘(Specially contributed by Taki Fujita, ’25.)
“Ninety-nine per cent. of the Japanese
go to school,” a proud Japanese may pro-
claim. Yes, but only for six years of
primary education, and these six years
are spent in learning the awful Chinese
-characters! In Japan, there are but thirty-
‘ . *,* .
three universities for men, and, still worse,
only seven colleges for women. One of
these:is Miss Tsuda’s School. ;
“Why do you send your daughter to Miss
Tsud&’s School? It is known for nervous
breakdowns,” our kind neighbor reminded
my mother. Yet how thrilled I was to find
my. name among those who were admitted to
the school after the stiff entrance examina-
‘tion! I- remember well those first weeks
when I spent hour after hour puzzling over
a simple passage in Uucle Tom’s Cabin, and
sat dumfounded in the classroom, murmur-
ing to myself, “Americans talk too fast.”
Yet a few years later, we were reading The
Canterbury Tales, the Bible, Sartor Re-
sartus and the Ancient Mariner all in the
original, We did understand something of
them, too.
In 1871, Ume Tsuda, then a child “i
seven years, now the principal of the
school,.was among the first group of
young women sent to this country by the
Japanese Government to study the West-
ern civilization and culture. In 1889, she
entered Bryn Mawr College. After grad-
nating, she went straight back to Japan
“toe give. Japanese women higher educa-
tion under the influence of a Christian
| Home,” as she expressed it.
For twenty-three years the school- has
steadily until today it has an en-
i) ver three hundred students.
'$ receive the” much-coveted.
a naive steadfastness: ever since.
Have words, .merely—as—‘words;—any
meaning? Intricate sounds have an
energy value, vowels suggest space, con-
sonants, boundaries... There is an aptness -
about certain. words, even those which
are not purely imitative. The craftsman
must be able to decide between words
which seem the same: only a barbarian
could describe beautiful eyes-as gray in-
stead of grey. He must choose words
that are rich in associative and derivative
meanings, words that come alive. Until
we use words rightly we are little more
than. ambulating wax works made vocal
by a phonograph. Words used in the
wrong place are bad language. When we
consider the drafts of great poets, we find
that they aim first at the sense, then at °
music, and last at a kind of critical génius.
But Craftsmanship is not a skillful piec-
ing together of verbal elements, not the
infinite capacity -for taking pains. The
impulse to create flowers from a seed of
life within. Poetry is a revelation in that
form of what could not-be expressed in —
any other way, and it springs from the
heart and mind and spirit of the creator.
To dissect a‘poem may seem barbarous,
but in the study of art lurks science.
Knowledge incredibly enriches our. de-
light in all arts, which are mirror§ of -
reality, windows of wider regions of en-
joyment.

Mr. Masefield has told a direct, vigorous
tale of adventure and romance whose
hero, heroine and villain are true to color-

involves one another, not the solving of
their individual psychological problems.

_ DEVELOPMENT OF” INDIVIDUAL EMPHASIZED
AT OXFORD UNIVERSITY, SAYS RHODES SCHOLAR
First Article jon “Studerit Life in
‘ Foreign Conntries” Deals with
English Colleges.
ROWING IS A’ “SERIOUS SPORT”
The following article is the first of a
series entitled “Student Life in Other
Countries,” others of. which will appear
in the COLLEGE NEWS at intervals.
They have been collected by the Yale
Daily News and offered for publication to
other college periodicals throughout the
country, ; “ .
An editorial by. President Emeritus
Hadley, of Yale University, on the sig-
nificance and purpose of the series appears
on the éditorial page.
'! This article on Oxford is written by
Mr. Whitney H.-Shephardson, a Rhodes
sqholar at Balliol College, Oxford, from
1911 to 1913. He was a member of the
legal staff of the United States Shipping
Board in 1917 after which he served in
the war. He was in Paris with the Ameri-
can representatives during the Peace Con-
ference and was secretary of the League
of Nations Commission.
o
A great. deal has been written about
Oxford during the thousand years of its}
existence. Novels have been built around
it; poets have loved it well; essayists have
drawn from its inexhaustible quarry, and
historians have told its. story over and
over again.. But American students have
discovéred it for themselves only dypring.,
the present generation, and, like any other
interesting discovery, it deserves’ to be
passed on to someone else. We know al-
together too little about the “Mother of
“Colleges”’—our Alma Grandmater.
When. once you have been a part of
the life at Oxford, Oxford is part of your
own life—one of those memories that
become fresh and vivid upon the slight-
est provocation. All this is dangerous;
for the first memories that come to mind
are of the most elusive sort—the gardens
of New College and the well-groomed
lawns of Worcester; Old Tom ringing out
its hundred and one strokes. from -Christ
Church tower through the midnight rain;
old men and young men assembling in
their-gowns- and. bright-colored-hoods. for
the formal funetions of the University.
There is a danger, too, of being diverted
into the “curiosities” of Oxford life, its
picturesque institutions which seem to link
this generation of undergraduates to those
generations which have gone before; the
“scout” on the staircase who cares for
your rooms, brings gigantic breakfasts for
the half-dozen guests’ who are huddling
round your feeble fire on a cold, damp
morning; students tearing through the
streets on bicycles, rushing from one lec-
“ture to another with their short black

Close Relationship of Student and |
Professor.
But after a few months, these details
ose the flavor of novelty, and other things
Aes to emerge as* more important dif-
ae ferences between Oxford and our own
colleges. First of all, an intimate relation
between teacher and student is the rule
‘in Oxford as it is the exception here. I

North Devon with a tutor in — for
no other reason than that we seemed tq
like each other’s company.
There is, in English life, a closer rela-
tionship than we enjoy between older and
younger. men; but what makes this val-
uable intimacy possible in Oxford (it
seems to me) is the fact that your final
examinations are never set by your in-
structors.. An impersonal committee,
drawn partly from Oxfogpd and partly
from other educational institutions, pre-
pares questions for the written examina-
tion, conducts the subsequent oral. ordeal,
and gives the candidatés. their final rank-
ing. So friendship with ‘your instructor
won't “do any ‘good;”“no one can be ac-
cused of currying favor with him,.¢ And,
as’a consequence, you ‘may see as much
or as little’ of him as your mutual desire
for friendship suggests. *
' No “Cramming” Possible.
Just because examinations are con-
ducted by such a neutral body, it is nec-
essary for the student to have a fairly
broad grasp of hfs subject. He must be
prepared to answer reasonable questions
covering his’ whole course of study. If
he is taking the Modern History School,
he prepares himself* (with the aid of
tutors, lectures and reading) in Political
Science, one of the sevetal subjects that
goes.to make up the school.
Ask your tutor for a “text-book” on
Political Science, and you'll get nothing
He'll advise you gen-
erally with regard to a course of lectures
on this subject, or a course of reading;
but jn the same breadth he’ll warn you
against imagining that you can “cram”
one book or two books and be sure of
passing. Your examination will be on
Political Science, and not upon John
Doe’s text-book on Political Science.
University Stand Based on Final
Examinations.
So you proceed through three years of
it—or four—attending many lectures or
few as your tutor suggests, reading much
or little as your taste and conscience pre-
scribe, taking “tests” from time to time
which are set by your-tutor merely to
discover whether you are slacking or not.
The first year of Oxford is one of experi-
ment—many acquaintances, many diver-
sions, with a good deal of dabbling at the
‘books.
The second year is one of “getting up
steam’—a few friends, a few selected out-
side interests and a gool deal of hack
work at lectures and- reading.
The last year is one long. driving nine
months’ “cram” with University exami-
nations at the —examinations which
cover the whole ‘fhree years’ study, and
constitute the only basis of your rank-
ing. An uninterrupted week of papers,
four hours in the morning and four hours
‘in the afternoon, with everything at stake}
qn them! Whether this is,a better or a
worse system than our own, the peda-
gogues can decide. It is certain it is a
different one,
Distinction Between University and
Colleges.
The distinction “between Oxford Uni-
versity and the Colleges which compose
it, is not easy to grasp at first. The best
analogy I know is that of the United
}States itself, and the “states” which go to
make it up. The University, under its
own name, and with all its formality and
picturésque ceremony, greets you when
you enter Oxford. and blesses you when
you ‘depart. And. perhaps once, in the
course of y@#tr residence, an official of the
| University catchés you in thé aetof break-|
ing one of its regulations.
But apart. from these occasions, the
undergraduate’s life is spent in his Col-
lege: one, two or three hundred men gath-
ered within its-four walls, living there;
taking part in the College sports, taking
the direction of their work from its tutors, :
i iisssreasesanafie nessncmseacroosrsiomoor
belonging to its clubs, and .meeting as a
community at least once a day for dinner
in the College hall.
Each College has its cliques, its gossip,
its internal rows, its particular antipathies
among other Colleges, its traditions, its
legends, and its specialties—wlfether they
be strawberries-in-season, anchovy toast,
or atpotent brew of ale. And when you
go out from the University into life, you
are forever known as a Trinity man, a
Magdalen man, a Balliol man, as the case
may be. '
Individuality Developed.
The varioys Colleges tend, perhaps, to
produce men. of a certain type; but far
greater scope is given to the development
of individuality in Oxford than obtains i in
the United States:
You have more chance of’ growing in
Oxford—and you have: more chance of
disintegrating. In other words, the sys-
‘tem (if an opportunity. for education may
properly be called a system) is admirably
suited to the man who knows where he is
going, but the man with little purpose and
no sense of responsibility is apt to suffer
from being left severely alone.

Nobody bothers you if you fail to show
up at College meetings; nobody makes
you go to lectures; nobody thinks you are
especially queer if you prefer the writings
of some obscure Hungarian poet to those
of Arnold Bennett. “‘Fools are suffered
gladly” in the belief that they will work
out their own salvation in time, and on the
chance that the “fool” may prove, after
all, to be right; and that Andreas Ady may
be a greater figure in literature than the
author of “The Pretty Lady.” To go to
Oxford may be a dangeréus intellectual.
adventure; but one has all the freedom
of the buccaneer while it lasts.

FROM EARLY DAYS OF MAN
and Fire Have Elevated . Man
From Primitive State, Says Maxim
?
Dr. Elmer, for eight years . National
Archery Champion, who has written sev-
‘eral books on the subject, spoke in the
gymnasium, Wednesday evening, October
29.
Archery has been one of the most im-
portant occupations in the world through
all the ages, Dr. Elmer said, in telling the
history of archery as he showed bows and
arrowheads of different types.
The Mediterranean ‘has filled and
emptied three times since the first arrow-
of. the two oldest pictures in the world,
found in a cave of Southern France, is of
a man holding a bow. At a conservative
estimate these were painted twenty-five
hundred years ago. Since then the Egyp-
tians and the. Assyrians, who used |
long-hinged» bow; the. Greeks, who spe
cialized in the Cupid’s bow; the. people of
the Middle Ages, the English in the Wars
of the Roses, who employed the long bow
we use today, have all been archers. The
Turkish bows of horn and sinew shoot the
farthest, because tliey have the greatest
resiliency.
Dr. Elmer quoted Mr. Maxim, who once
said that fire and archery were the two
main things that eleyated. man. Archery
has lived through the ages though it sur-
vives merely as a sport today. For years
it held its own against gunpowder, and
bows were still used in 1772 for fighting
purposes. In those days every man prac-
ticed daily. We have three early bows,
one of which was discovered in the house
of a peasant at Flodden Field and is sup-
posed to have been used in the battle, and
two, salvaged from the Mary Rose,-a ship
recently brought up. which was sunk in
the Thames in the time of Henry the
Righth: en
The test of an archer in Robin Hood’s
day was the cleaving of the wand at 100
yards. The Noble Toxiphilic Society,
patronized by the Duke of York, did much
to keep archery alive, although this was
a degenerate period of the sport, when
neat little arrows were used. In 1828
Peele, sent on a Western expedition, be-
came fascinated watching the Indians
shoot ant organized the United Bowmen
of Pennsylvania on his return. In 1879
William: and Morris Thompson, Confed-
erate Veterans, wrote a book, “The
Witchery of Archery,” which caught the
imagination of the American people.
Many societies were. formed. Since then
there have been yearly archery tourna-
ments, for which the contest now is the
old splitting of the wand at one hundred
yards.
Dr. Elmer finished his interesting talk
classed into the four divisions, standing,
knocking, drawing and aiming.

gether again. Bertrand thinks
that in. the philosophy to come we shall,
have incoherence, just a lot of things
catalogued, identified listed but ,non-sig-
nificant.
“Yet this breaking down’ of thought Ssys-
tems is a normal human experience, - Our
thought-molds are ‘always too stiff to
meet changing circumstances. They crack
and we have to make new ones,
“For example, men used to’ have a cur- [
riculum*called. classicism in which they be-
lieved. But the world today feels. that
classicism is not good enough. It is fine,
deficate, sweet, excellent, but it is not
creative and it is essentially undemocratic.
We feel that education should enable peo-
ple to gtow, should make them free, and
should give them a scientific attitude of
mind,
“But here again we are lacking in our
point of view. Into what will we grow,
what will we do with our freedom, and
what will we get with our scientific atti-
tude of mind?” To answer these ques-
tions, Dr. Meiklejohn thinks we need to
make for ourselves a picture of the mean-
ing of life.
