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.

ondary schools, “and from 1922 to 1926 it
has” been tried in six schools in Vienna,
schools for gifted children without regard
for rank or income.” Dr.. Dengler’s plan
organizes the three natural parts of a com-
munity for education into a co-operating
body. There is a Parents’ Union, a Téachers’
Union, and a Pupils’ Union. Managing
these is an Executive Committee consisting
of three fathers, three mothers, and three
teachers. The Parents’ Union holds meet-
ings for discussions and plans at which at-
tendance is compulsory, parents of all social
levels meeting together. The Pupils’ organi-
zation is based on collective responsibility in-
tellectually, physically and morally. Even

' By means’ of observation blanks upon
which parents and jgstructors make records,
a careful investigation is made of each child,
in physique, reir intelligence and
environment.

-in spite of enormous success with his
methods, Dr, Dengler pointed out certain
very difficult factors in the organization of
education, factors of racial prejudice, politi-
cal dissension, and the dnservatism™*of, the
universities and many of their graduates: In¢
conclusion he showed drawings by children
of 10 and 11 in the Viennese public schools
and translations of observation blanks.

Gilbert and Sullivan Rest Supreme
Though Kimonos Supplant Cutlasses



By its choice in operettas, the Glee Club
shows ‘itself definitely of the Romantic
Camp; and yet there are very few of us who
are not romantics when it comes to feeling
the lure of distant climes. Last year the
Glee Club presented Pirates of Penzance ;
this year it will give The Mikado.
