SMOKING IS SATISFACTION OF

by Dr, Ethel Dunham, assistant professor
of ‘pediatrics at Yale University School of
Medicine and chairman of the Committee
on Hygiene of the Bryn Mawr Alumnae
Association, speaking in Chapel on Monday
morning, January 11. It differs from other
such habits, however, she continued, in three
ways—namely: (1) the effects desired are
not to be attributed .to its most active con-
stituent, nicotine; (2) there is no great
physiological demand for the dose of to-
bacco, so that the habit of smoking can be
stopped suddenly without. any _ striking
physiologic reaction; (3) it is a psychic
demand for the satisfaction of a habit, and
can be classed with chewing gum, eating

In accord with the traditional Yuletide

with the possible exception of a song or
two, was even better than the usual Fresh-

The first stage of the “Nightmare” ‘was
laid in'a 1929 boudoir wherein a heavily-

H. Hopkinson, '26, Tells Under-Grad-

‘ments of«Princeton ‘Conference
INTERCOLLEGE UNION PLANNED
At a meeting of the Undergraduate As-
sociation on’ Wednesday, December 16, H.
Hopkinson, ’26, member of the executive
committee for the Intercollegiate Confer-
ence on the World Court held at Princeton
University, December 11 and 12, reported
on the work of the conference.
“At Princeton 249 colleges were represent-
ed and 39 States,” said Miss Hopkinson;
in. fact there were three members from
California. Two problems were considered
{by this large group, the World Court and
the formation of some kind of intercol-
legiate association on the plan of the Con-
federation Internationale des Etudiants,”.
_A debate between Senator Lenroot and
Clarence Darrow. opened the conference on
Friday evening, December 11.- Saturday
morning, 18 groups led by prominent
speakers discussed the World Court ques-
tion; and in the afternoon an open forum
was held, in which everyone showed great
interest and full information. At the vot-
ing only four votes were cast against the
Court. Many favored entrance by the
United States into the Court as a first step
towards entrance into the League of Na-
tions.
A permanent organization was the sub-
ject of the meeting on Saturday evening,
according to a scheme of independent vot-
ing by the delegates to be ratified by their
colleges. Officers, too, ‘were elected, to” be-
gin their functions when ratification by all
the organizations shall have taken place.
“A permanent organization for the ex-
pression’ of student opinion is very impor-
tant,” Miss Hopkinson went on. “It will
collect student opinion, stimulate. interest in
international problems like the World
Court, and facilitate student intercourse,
especially international intercourse. The
vice president of the C. I. E. will probably
join us shortly.”
APPOINTMENT BUREAU ASKS
REGISTRATION OF SENIORS
Very Importment Even If Jobs Are
Not Wanted for Immediate Use
Dean Manning and Miss Faulkner wish
}Tto urge all Senior graduate students to
register with the Appointment Bureau as
soon as possible. There are several. rea-
sons why it is most important that girls
should register by the middle of their sen-
ior year whether or not they expect to
be looking for jobs in June or October.
‘In the first place, it is of the utmost value
to the Bureau when an interesting open-
ing is heard of to know exactly what can-
didates there may be, and unless it has a
record which includes the whole Senior
Class, it is never sure that some of those
who have not registered may not be avail-

SIX YEARS OLD
On Monday, January 11, the’ League of
Nations began its seventh year. Since its.
start in 1920, it has gotten well under way,
growing in power and efftciency every
year, While those who oppose it con-
tend that it has not béen successful in
preventing wars, it is becoming increas-
ingly more effective. As a clearing-house
for international information and in its
research committees, its work has been
particularly good. .
The prospect for the coming year is
better than ever before. The spirit and
fact of the Locarno agreement is pervad-
ing Europe. This very strong factor in
Continental peace showed its possibilities
as soon after its birth as the time of the
Greco-Bulgarian border war. Moreover,
Locarno means the entrance of Germany
into the Leagwe, with a permanent seat
on the council. This remedies what many
have felt to be a chief defect—the exclu-:
sion of former enemies from the League.
When rulings could not bind Germany,
they lost greatly in strength.
Within the next few months, too, the
Disarmament Committee --is
Whether this accomplishes anything ‘defi-
, nite or not, it is one more or towards
* peace.
The outlook for the entrance of the
United, States into the League is begin-
ning to appear more favorable.. We are
taking part in the arms parley; in the
near future we may- -haye members sitting
with the Council and the Assembly to
elect judges for the. World. Court. The
League has demonstrated its ability to get
along without the United States. We are
finding out how indispensable it is for the
United States to work with the League—
why not in the League? -
The League is no longer weak even
without the United. States. With the
United States, it would be just so much
stronger, just so much better able to carry
on and forward its good. works.

DOWN. WITH THE BASTILLE!,
To the Editors of the Cortece News:
We wish to protest against the prison-
house which the reading-room of -the Li-
brary has ‘become this semester. We
ask that it be made a work-room again,
not a torturéchamber of tongue-tied fear.
We hold no brief for the pleasant revelry
of ‘the last year; the chewing gum booth,
the light lunches and the poker games need
not be resumed. Most: of the leaders of
that festive period have left college; their
places will not, easily be filled. There is a
middle ground between pandemonium and
panic-stricken. silence. We point out. that
in past years the college prospered on this
middle ground, where one person may
speak quietly to another without any un-
due disturbance. We recall the remarks of
Mr. Pillsbury on the value of, slight dis-
tractions during attention to “work (see
Esséutials of Psychology, pages 134-135).
We ask the internes of the Lib. if
the shrieking silence is really helping their
work. Are they getting better marks than
at this time last year?
results of midyears will indicate an appre-
ciable improvement in college work. We
remember that 1928 graduated with one of
the best academic records; and in 1922-23
social life in the Library was allowed to
exist in a quiet way. After all most- of
the desired conversations are business, not
gossip. An atmosphere of industry and
‘freedom makes the Lib. - something bet;
ter than a bleak row of reserve desks, the
study hall of a female seminary.
Since a little distraction: is “often valuable
to attention, since the college has prospered
in the past with less restriction, since there
is a happy medium which can be main,
tained, and since it is hardly fair to ex-
pect the Self-Government Board constantly
to expend time and energy acting as police-
men, we ask a modification in the stringent
restrictions.

cannot see the smoke.”
Dr. Dunham defined tobacco as “the
leaves of nicotine. tabacum, subjected to two
processes of fermentation, by. which dis-
agreeable substances are removed, and by
which 26 to 30 per cent. of the nicotine is
lost and the aroma developed.” “There is
a question,” she went on, “as to how much
of the nicotine is destroyed in the smoking.
It is certainly less harmful in puffing than
in inhaling, while epectoration decreases the
absorption to almost nothing.” Evidently
cigarettes, and the finest grades at that, are
the least harmful, the nicotine content in-
creasing with the cheaper grades, and at-
taining its full strength in cigars (especially
the black ones with thick wrappings) and
pipes. “Pure nicotine,” she said, “is highly |
poisonous, even in tiny units, and can cause
instantaneous death. It has no therapeutic use,
and serves commercially as an insecticide.”
Quoting Dr. Osler in Modern Medicine,
she gave the effects of nicotine on inveter-
até smokers as “smoker’s tongue,” foul
and heart palpitation. “Scientific research,”
she resumed, “has found that hea
ette smokers develop ee dati to

Italian. Walter Yust, in thé -Bookman,
speaking of Mr. Sandburg in one of -his

burn out their black fire, your. attention is -
gripped by ‘that same honest man-to-man
sincerity which he is able to put into the

ROBERT FROST TO BE SHEBLE
MEMORIAL LECTURER FOR 1926
“BeyondjProse and Reason” Will Be
, the Subject of New England Poet
sonanmareomnrmcss |
On Friday evening, January 15, the an-
nual Ann Elizabeth Sheble Memorial Lec-
ture will be given by Professor Robert
Frost, whose subject will be “Beyond Prose
and Reason.”
Mr, Frost, known as the Poet of New
England, was born in San Francisco in
1875. He went to Dartmouth for one year,
to Harvard for two, and was married at
twenty, after which he settled down to a
farmer’s life in New Hampshire. For many
years he quietly wrote poetry, unknown to
fame, and it was not until North of Boston
was published that he became heralded as
a leader of the New Poetry. “He has
transformed blank verse,” says Miss Ser-
geant, “into a fluid instrument of his own
idiomatic speech, pungent and taciturn, a
speech’ sharpened and -mellowed- with a
humor, that strikes always through its mark
of literal fact.”
Mr. Frost has also been a teacher of
psychology and English at various acad-
emies, has been Poet in Residence at the
University of Michigan, where he is now
holding an unusual professorship, to be used
as he wishes. In an appreciation in the
Saturday Review of Literature, G. B. Mun-
son writes of him:
“FE, A. Robinson takes for his materials
the death that is creeping over old New
England; Frost chooses for his, the life
that still persists in that little section of
our rampant country. Critics, therefore,
have made much of Frost as a lyrical per-
ceiver of the beauties of the New England
landscape, and intimate knower of the
stable and delicate laws of necessity which:
govern its inhabitants, a quiet master of
the simplified, sturdy and settled lives of
the people. In -his poetry we find
our impressionism clarified into’ experience.
He is the poet of the normal in man
and nature, not the exploiter of the re-
markably arresting and wonderful.’
Mr. Frost is the author of A Boy’s Will,
North of Boston, Mountain Interval and
New Hampshire.
In 1990°Mr. Frost was at Bryn Mawr for
|1ectures and conferences wi Reeling
Jand Writhing Club, a small group of
undergraduates interested in writing.

These are selecied storcs, one in nearly every neighborhood in
the land. They are drug stores, mainly; because the “drug” store.
today is the outstanding public servant among retail stores, a
popular store by day or night.
Last year th.se progressive stores were able to serve thousands

anniversariés. At the proper time they sent the candy containing
athe customer’s card and greeting. Itis human nature to remember
—and then forget. Our agencies did the remembering.
Let the local Whitman agent have your order when you think
of it-—for the Valentine box, the Easter gift, the Mother’s Day
remembrance, the bon voycge package, for th
anniversary: Then though you forget it, your remembrance will
be on hand at the proper time. ;
Whether you buy Whitman’s in a large city or a remote village
the dealer is a selected agent, with an interest in maintaining our
reputation for quality and service. The candy is sent him direct
from Whitman’s, not through a jobber or middleman. -Every
package he sells you must give complete satisfaction. It is doubly _
guaranteed, by the agent and by Whitman’s, -
