Coriyers Reed in Memorial Lecture |



- Stresses Strength of’'Good Queen
Bess with acerca Man



TRUE CHILD OF RENAISSANCE

“Good Queen Bess” was the subject on
which Conyers Reed, non-resident lec-
turer in history at the University of Chi-
cago, delivered the first M&llory Whiting



Webster memorial lecture; on Saturday | - :

evening, February 6, in Taylor Hall.

“The only point on which Pius VI and]

Henry of Navarre were agreed,” he
began, “was that Queen Elizabeth was
one of the greatest of monarchs.”

. Her whole generation wrote of her in
terms of extravagant praise. Cavalier and
Pruitan ‘alike revered her; the former, as
protagonist of royal power, the latter, as
champion of the Protestant faith. The
rationalistic eighteenth century commended
her for her lack of the very religious parti-
sanship for which the Puritans looked up to
her. Froude, in the nineteenth century,
would have ‘none of her because she refused
to aid. the Reformation. To-good luck, and
not to good management, he attributed
her undeniable success. Yet good luck
does not seem to explain her.

As a woman, she is a familiar enough
figure.‘ She was never beautiful, always
lacking ‘in feminine charm. Strong she
must-have been, for she lived to bury
nearly all the courtiers and statesmen who
surrounded her at her accession. She com-
manded no personal loyalty—her popularity
was with those who did not know her per-
sonallly. :

Whether she remained a virgin we shall
probably never know, nor does it very
much matter.. .Her .coquetry was ‘so eotane
that it appears assumed.

NEW METHODS IN SCHOOLS
_ DESCRIBED BY DR. DENGLER

Bipectisents Bring Great Sais in
Scientific Child Development



Community: D -System”. was the subject of
a lecture by Dr. Paul Dengler, -Delegate of
the Austrian Ministry for Public Instruction,
on Thursday evening, February 4, in Rocke-
feller Hall...

“In Modicin now..a poe but icons diiaws
cratic country, we- have to establish not to
reform the. schools. Immediately after the
world. war -we. began -this. work,” said -Dr.
Dengler... “Three -kinds. of. schools. were
set up: elementaryfor children-from-—six-to-
ten years, secondary for those over ten, and
advanced for the older. scholars... Though
the universities are generally more or less
conservative all these schools were organized
on the most advanced scientific basis.

“Tn 1920 all the new ideas of psychology
and ‘education were being used in 250 ele-
mentary schools,” said Dr. Dengler. The
Teachers’ Chamber (made up of all the
teachets in the country) decided that a sys-
tem based. on these new’ ideas should be
tried for four years. In 1925 they reported
on the results ‘of the experiment : 95° per
cent. were in favor of continuing the system.
‘Today Austria is the only country in the
world with’ all its elementary schools work-
ing under this systefh.

‘The contrast between the old school and
the ‘new was described by Dr. Dengler. In
the new school there is a strong friendship
between ‘pupil and teacher; there is no
definite schedule © of classes and hours; the
children ask most of the questions, not the
teachers.. An effort is made to co-ordinate
facts observed. in. ‘everyday life with theories
learned’ in school, through. the “districts of
life.” “Phe first year these are the hoe of
the child and the schoolhouse; the second,
they are the village and the schoolhouse ; the
‘third, the county.’ Always the aim is to re-

DR. FEARN CALLS OUR ATTITUDE
TOWARD WORLD FALSE AND BAD

Warden of London’ Church of the
Mystical Union Speaks Here Again

Speaking on the “Science of Sanity,” Dr.
L. W. Fearn, Warden of. the-Church of the
Mystical Union, London, England, led the
chapel service in Taylor, Sunday. evening,
February 7.

“The ailee ones to whom you ¢ati talk

-|about sanity are those who know they .are

said Dr. Fearn. “That is why I
may speak to you.” Sanity, in Dr. Fearn’s
conception, means wholeness, completeness
of -being. We do not even approach sanity
unless ‘we desire to be more sane, to be as

not sane,”

Science in this conception is never “exact,”
but approaches exactness when ft’ is “based



> | spirit, and shattered by focusing, on.

on principles that are ascertainable.” The
science of santy is the “potential possiblities
of anyone who wants to plumb the depths of
being, to find out why they were called into
being.” é

“Tf our attitude is intellectual or senti-
mental it is wrong, since in each case it is
appallingly lopsided.” The intellectual “lives
by proxy and is a nonentity;” the sentimeh-
talist goes to the other extreme and is a
“squib fizzling through life.’

We must use what little sanity we have to:
learn something of what are heaven’s' meth-
ods of creating better men. In other words,
where are we essentially non-sane? We for-
get that the spirit is submerged in the flesh
and we mistake the world for a permanent
abiding place where we are to get the most
pleasure possible through the flesh, when in
reality it is an educational establishment for
the: world of the super-sense.”

“Religion is the exact opposite of what
most people consider it to be. It is not
sentimentality, a form of eroticism, ora
soothing narcotic. It is theyrealization of
union or reunion with a living Spirit Which
is God.” We must. renounce the world and
everything of the flesh if we are to attain
this union,

Again our outlook on economics is funda-
mentally wrong. If we would give labor its
proper valuation and not degrade it as a
means of money-making, but loek upon it
as a method for improving man, we would
have a saner world.

“We must live through the diasical
mechanism for the higher evolution. of the
spirit, and this we cannot do if we live for
the flesh.” Dr. Fearn concluded by saying
that “Our wholeness, that is our sanity, con-

\sists in-a realization of the fact that every

man, woman. and- child: isa dynamic. force:
that may be raised by concentration of the

Never, we are certain, will the Anne

hours free except during his science
courses, would have ‘infinitely more time
to pursue the things in the course which
his particular bent of mind made especially
interesting to him, and which he would
see more clearly on considering the mime-
ographed notes in the quiet of the library
than. when struggling to copy down the
lecturer’s words in class. Certainly a
much fuller, clearer, and more individual

What, precisely, is the value of the college

originally to save the priceless college linen
from fruit stains. But now there is no
artistic crime involved in getting fruit juices

nobler ways, but their aridity does not appear
to remind most of us of our ladylike up-
bringing.

Our imagination fails here; we cannot
conceive of any other reason for the finger
bowl, Its drawbacks, on the other hand,
- are many and obvious. It means extra work
for the maids to put them out each morning,
and then move them before bringing on the

Why not, then, scrap these encumbrances ?

According to Sir Thomas Browne, when
a man at twenty has attained the virtue of
gray hairs, it is superfluous for him to live
longer. As with length of life, so with
other matters—when the virtue has been
attained, persistence is superfluous.

For most women, the virtue of a college
degree is represented by interests, com-
panionship, a lively and telling way of |
thought, If at the end of four years, two
out of three parts of that virtue have been
attained, the degrees. in question should’ be
conferred “cum laude.”

But if at the end of one or two or three
years a prospective Bachelor has found
friends to enjoy, an interest, and power of
mind to direct her in following that interest,
persistence, however, pleasant, for the next
year, or years, is cettainly superfluous.

The virtue of a college degree depends on
nothing so mechanical as the number of
years spent in earning the sheepskin. It is
a small shame not to wait for that honor,
perhaps. It is a much greater shame, in a
short life, to have to reckon one year
superfluous,

FOR TWO C. A. LECTURES
- Dr. James Gordon Gilkey, one of the most
popular ande forceful of the religious
speakers that come to Bryan Mawr, will
lecture in TaWor Hall-on Thursday and
Friday evenings of this week. —

Last year, it will be remembered, - Dr.
Gilkey gave two lectures‘on “The Modernist
Interpretation of the Biple and Jesus,” in
which he made many statements both chal-
lenging and revolutionary to the common
mode of thought This year his subject is
to be “Modern Mysticism,” and his lecture
will be especially interesting with reference
to that delivered by Dr. Fearn last Sunday.
The place which mysticism can hold in the
highly intellectual life of today is a sub-
ject on which Dr. Gilkey is considered an
authority, and on which he has lectured at
Amherst, Vassar, Smith and other colleges.
While Dr. Gilkey, like Dr. F er, is a mystic,
his interpretation of the Word -is ‘somewhat
different, and the fact that they both present
lectyres within a week will offer an unusual
opportunity to study the two at close range.

GOOD QUEEN BESS,
> SUBJECT OF PRAISE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1



Renaisgance, totally unsympathetic with
the medieval attitude. - Had .she been
otherwise, she. could never have escaped
the’ pitfalls that beset her *youth. “Her
mother was executed before she was
three; she was brandef a bastard through
most of her childhood, and was involved,
probably through no fault of her own, in
an unsavoury scandal with her stepfather
while still a child.

Her attitude toward the religious con-
flict which was rending Europe was char-
acteristic. Protestant under her father,
radical Protestant under her brother,
Catholic under her sister, she was really
indifferent to all religions. The average
Englishman of her time had swallowed
three religions before she was twenty, and

* go she was not afraid that he would resent

her indifference. Moreover, she could be
confident that her neighbors would not
regard mere religion as a casus ‘belli.

Her real reason for opposing Catholi-
cism was her dislike for papal domina-
tion. In this she was in harmony with
the strong nationalistic tendencies of
England. She tolerated religious dissent no
more than political.

She wanted primarily an ordinary state,
and experience had taught her that religious
dissent meant. civil disorder. The political
implications of Catholic beliefs were the
reason for ‘her occasional persecutions. So
open was her mind that the more zealous of
her Protestant. councillors were always on
tenterhooks for fear that she would turn
back to Catholicism.

It was the irony of fate that she should
rule at a time when politics were involved
so closely in religion: But she steadily re-
fused to be drawn into battle for the Protes-
tant cause, to let England be exploited for
the sake of religion ‘alone. -She helped the
Dutch rebels because they were a thorn in
the side of Spain; she helped the Hugue-
nots because: they weakened France.

She never abandoned ‘this policy of
keeping England at peace. ~War was un-
congenial to her.: She knew that her
metier lay in the crooked diplomacy of
the sixteenth century. She wanted—and

had—a foot in every camp anda ‘finger |

in every pie. No one ever knew what
she would do the next minute, herself
least of all. She dallied almost to the end
with the idea of pardoning Mary Queen of
Scots, ‘because there was something too

~ definite about the headman’s axe to suit her

‘temperament.
Marriage also was too definite for her.

Without close” relatives or intimate
friends, she appears a lonely figure; but
really she never negded sympathy. , De-
spite her va@#flation, she was always mis-
tress of the situation, cold, hard, and
inflexible as steel. She kept herself sur-
rounded by statesmen: and courtiers

owed everything fo .her. Burleigh had
morse of her confidence than any other
man, yet ‘he never dominated her, even

her side. Most of her ministers lived out
their lives in her service. In fact, we are
forced to conclude that she was not a good
Elizabethan. She never helped Drake,
although she was very willing to profit by
his piracies. She never knew personally
any of the great literary figures of her day
except Sidney .and Raleigh.

But Elizabethan England-was the Eng-
land not only- of all that glorious com-
pany which it means to us, but of the
common people, of commonplace aspira-
tions. The tommon man _ knew that
Elizabeth loved and understood him, and
was determined to keep him out of war.

idea of democracy, but she never let the
court isolate her: from the common man, nor
forgot that she was queen of all the English.

So the common man saw her; and to
him she was not Gloriana, but Good
Queen Bess. Inthe affectionate famili-
arity of this name lay her real strength.
How could she be lonely when an entire
nation was: behind her?

She was very sensitive td*public opin-
ion; realizing the importance of the press,
she always justified her actions by circu-
lating pamphlets. She never forgot that the
eyes of her people were upon her, and she
staged all her actions for them. When she:

hour, and leaves it for the next. Some of
the metaphors of philosophers are like that
‘of Herbert Spencer. His is based on the old
‘conception that the earth rests on an ele-
phant’s back, the élephant stands on a turtle,
the turtle stands on a rock—and what does
the rock stand on?—oh, don’t bother me any
more! He says that the earth goes back to

a fiery. mass of vapor which revolved. What

started it revolving? Qh, don’t ask me any
more. No one knows why the water revolves
in. the sink as it goes down, either

Bergson, more a “poet than a philosopher,
said that the vapor was composed of the
same atoms as in the beginning, but that a
new something was added. Freud’s meta-
phor is that life is nothing but appetite, ali-
mentary or sexual. A less hopeful metaphor
is that-of Havélock Ellis, who calls all life
a dance. To Mr. Frost, at least, this is uysat-
isfaetory. Boas-is-quoted- as saying that-mat-

‘| poet, and he is not such a one until he



ter is free-will, that it is composed of parti-
cles flying off in all directions by chance and
caprice. A danger of sustaitiing any meta-
phor too long is quite imminent; and this
danger is encountered in Walter De La
Mare’s Memoirs of a Midget, whose thesis
is that the poet’s life is a departure from the
norm,

.“The poet is more easily recognized by his
hohaotur than by his work. . It-is ‘his gift for
making metaphor which proves hima real
makes
his first very own metaphor. Poetry has suf-
fered from the metaphor of. ‘content and
form’ as well as that of ‘license.’ This is a
boomerang, used by the it turns
against him. It can all be reduced to very
simple terms—if you can get into rhyme and
metre what is good prose, you have some-
ing better than prose.” f

To returh to the odious term, escape, that
makes Mr. Frost want to leave the country /
The tradition is that. poets turn to poetry
from disappointment and defeat. But in
truth one is committed to poetry. He resents
anyone’s Saying that he is what he is because
he has been thwarted, as a sort of com-
pensation. The realist’s escape is to turn on
life and.to grapple with it. Poetry is aspira-
tion, or to use a scientific metaphor, tropism.
If you wish to rid a room of flies, darken it
and let a small crack*of light appear at- an
open window; the flies go, but it is not an
escape. . The light is too much for them,
and they aspire toward it.

“Inevitable” and “escape” are favorite
critic’s “words. “They cancel each other—

poets succeed in writing the only words, ws
hence the inevitable.

Discouraging but grand. is the conception

Just below this limitation of freedom is great.
choice, and attendant upon it, indecision,

Aspiration is belief, faith or confidence—
any word you like. There is belief in some-
one or falling .in love, which comes
early and lasts long. There is belief first in
oneself, then in another, then in people in
general and finally in God.. A poem is an
unfolding of something that is implicit. To
Mr. Frost it is as vague as a lump in the
throat—out of that a poem emerges. It is
that passing from the implicit to the explicit.
It is the quiver of the transition from belief
to realization.

“Tonight, my best metaphor has been—
like the sense-of the implicit in’ writing a
poem--my sense of God, democracy, the
people, the king, the herd, the person i
love, and myself.”

Among the poems’ which he read were
“Birches,” “The Oven-bird,” “The Road Not
Taken” and a comedy, “The Cows in the
Cern,” done in one of the two accents he
claims, Harvard and New England. Accord-
ing to Mr. Frost this illustrates the modern
tendency of the play to get shorter and
shorter, to be given for smaller and smaller
audiences, in smaller and smaller theatres.
And at last he enlightened a much mystified
audience by’ admitting that the poems With
which he had opened had. been by Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow.
