"DYNAMIC LIFE OF FOX

DESCRIBED BY DR. JONES



No Creed, No Infallible Church, No
Infallible Afiything, is Mystic's

New Religion of Reality 4



HAD FAITH EVEN IN CRIMINALS

A man of vigor, power, common sense,



cording to Dr, Rufus Jones’ account of him
in the Founders’ Lecture in Taylor Hall last
Wednesday evening. Dr. Jones is the presi-
‘dent of the Board of Trustees and of the
Board-of Directors of Bryn Mawr and he
is also one of the leading authorities 6n the
Society of Friends’ in America.

“In a little hamlet called Fenny Drayton,
George Fox? prophet, mystic and reformer
was born in 1624. At this time, the Refor-
mation was 100 years old; Shakespeare had
been dead eight years; Cromwell was 25
years old, and the King James version of
the Bible had been made 10 years before.

“Like the parents of Martin Luther,
George’s father and mother were ‘simple
country people, rugged, honest, downright.
By present-day standards George was an.ab-
normal boy. At 11, he knew pureness and
righteousness. He was shy and retiring and
never played with anyone.

“When he was 14 there came to his town]:

a new minister steeped in Calvinism and
hatred of the sinfulness of human nature.

___.._ After listening to him for two hours every |

Sunday, George broke with religion. He
decided that preachérs were hollow” and
-artificial, that religion was a sham, and that

he would have nothing more to do with-it]

until he found for himself a religion ‘of

reality, He left his family and with no

luggage but. the Bible and a’ few clothes,

walked up and down the country visiting

every man who seemed to him to stand for
~ reality.

“After four years he had a reffgious ex-
perience and found God. In 164@yhe started
out to tell England of his new religion. At

| ° first he met with stubborn resistttce, but
after three years he came pon some’ secret
religious sect, called the Seekers. These}
“joined his movement in large numbers—700

at one place and 1000 at another.

Miss Georgiana Goddard King, Pro-
fessor of History of Art, continued her
talk on the Annual Exhibition of the Penn-
sylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, last
Wednesday in chapel by speaking of the
sculpture. She explained the fact that
there was not as much sculpture as paint-
ing in this exhibit, by saying that the
sculptor’s task is now more difficult than
it was in ancient Greece and that the con-
servative character of the exhibition only
helped increase the difficulty, since sculp-
ture is a medium where the nude is more
‘startling than in painting.

“Past influence is more obvious in the
sculpture of the exhibition than in the
ainting,” said Miss King. “It is easy to
identify the influence as to objects.” There
are reflections of archaic Greek sculpture,
Sienese, German and the African. Negro’s.

of simulated bronze and hardly any stone
were used, The latter was not due to any
scarcity in marble, for the fact that the
bust of President Thomas, now in New
York, btit eventually to be brought here,
is of Greek marble, proves that that ma-
terial is still obtainable.

The abstract loveliness, removed from
serene harmony, of Estelle Rumbold-
Kohn’s work suggests German fifteenth
century sculpture and reflects the Renais-
sance of current thought; while the -in-
fluence of Pisanello can be seen in Gene-

GERMANTOWN TIES
VARSITY TEAM 15-15.

Fouls and Flares on Both Sides
Make Uncertain and Exciting
Game till Last Minute

BRILLIANT — INDIVIDUAL PLAY







Varsity * tied the Germantown Cricket
Clib by a@ Store Of” 15-15" tast Saturday
morning in a speedy game. The ball passed
like lightning from one end of the gymnasi-
nm.to the other, with only infrequent bas-
kets. This would seem to indicate that
the guards were more. skilled than the
forwards, but the number of points made
on foul-shots’ proves that the forwards
were not lacking in ability when an op-
portunity offered. D. Killough, captain of
the Germantown ‘team, and F, Jay, ’26,
shot especially accurately.

The tie score’ came as a great surprise,
for until the last few minutes Varsity
lead by quite a margin, but through
carelessness or over-excitement, Bryn
Mawr fouled repeatedly, and D. Killough,
in a last-minute dash, made three foul-
shots and a basket in succession, tying
the score. Perhaps some of this timely
pep was instilled by the enthusiastic cheers
of an individual spectator, who punctuated .
each play with a resounding: “Come on,
Germantown!”

Germamtown scored firat as well as last
and both times by D. Killough. Two
more lone shots followed this one; then
came a basket by F. Jay, ’26. The other
Germantown forward, M. Lukens, then
added two points to their score, followed
‘by two more foul-shots by F. Jay, ’26. A
beautiful long-shot basket by D. Killough
then wrung applause from all. ®W. Dodd,
’26 shot two baskets in, quick succession,
‘adding three points to the Varsity score,
for the first basket was thrown from
behind her head. With another foul-
shot by D. Killough, the first half ended.
The score was 9-6 in favor of Varsity.

Improved passing, both in speed and
sureness, marked the playing of both
teams in the second half. F. Jay, 26, and » me
W. Dodd, ’26, passed beautifully to each
other; and frequently back to the centres
when the guards proved ,too effective.
Varsity’s passing perhaps surpassed Ger-
mantown’s; it was short, quick and very
sure. Indeed the odds seemed all on Var —
sity’s side when F. Jay, '26, made a bril-
liant basket from one corner of the gym,
which she soon followed by another short-
er shot. D. Killough then made a basket
and E. Morris, subbing for M. “Lukens,

‘added two more points to their score.

At this point both teams were exhausted,
so “time out” called by-D. Killough came
as a relief to all. The game ended in a™
blazing whirl of glory for Germantown
when D. Killough tied the score and add-
ed five points to their score in one fell
swoop. The line-up was as follows:

-Germantown—D. Killough*******, M.
Lukens*, M. Wiener, G. Darkman, BE.

MAHOMET TO THE MOUNTAIN

Yale has very kindly offered to make us
a musical call. They suggest that -it
would be splendid if our Glee Clubs gave
a little mutual entertainment here for
their own and the college’s benefit. And
a& this has been a very successful season
for the Elis, they wouldn’t think of mak-
ing their usual charge for the performance
— just the expenses of the trip, and there
are only 57 of them.

Unfortunately, there is a rigid prohibi-
tion here against fiancial arrangements
for amateur concerts. Thus, it is claimed,
do we keep up the high standard of musi-
cal performances at Bryn Mawr.

The claim is a good one, but it is
going to sound sadly ungracious up at
New Haven. Nor will it help our reputa-
tion for snobbishness. But there is a way
out.
against amateur performances up there or
they never should have made. us the offer.
And they said that they did want our
Glee Clubs to get together.
since Yale cannot come to Bryn Mawr, |
can’t Bryn Mawr go up to New Haven?
In common politeness we must return
their offer, which will result in a pleasant
,week-end and expenses paid.



THE GERMAN SITUATION
_ With the death of President Ebert Ger-
many is in an intercsting position politically
for the election of March 29.. Though the
majority partiés in the Reichstag have de-]
cided to appoint Dr, Walter. Simons, the }
Foreigii Minister in the Fehrenbach, Cabi-
net of 1920, who failed’to meet the demands

of the Allies, as President ad interim of the }

_ Republic, the leading candidates for election
are Braun, of the Socialist party; Thael-
mann, of the Communist group; ex-Chancel-

lor Marx, candidate of the Centre, and ex-.

Minister of the Interior Jarres, supported by
the Right. Of these Braun and Marx seem
to be the favorites; for the Socialists will
' probably throw discredit upon the parties of |
the Right by emphasizing their ‘monarchical
tendencies. Also the People’s party, the
_ Nationalists, and other less extreme groups
will perhaps end bg. supporting Marx, the

choice of the Centre. There is a definite
_ possibility that the election of March 29 may
"fi 41 to elect a president. In this case another
election would be held in April, at which
* only a bare majori would be needed for the:
_ successful « late. With the present dis-

of protdcols and securities the re-

awaited.

and completely beautiful. Its rooms, ar-
tistically decorated with tapestries, ivo-
ries and the paintings and statues of stu-
dents, offer a sanctuary to all ages, all
classes, and all nationalitigs. A common
love of beauty unites in a spirit of har-]

BRYN MAWR ATTENDS
MAGAZINE CONFERENCE
(Specially Contributed,, E. Follansbee, 26.)

Mount Holyoke was this year the scene
of the Interéollegiate Magazine Confer-
ence, held on: February. 28 and 29, to
ich—seven—Eastern—coleges—sent—dele-.
gates—Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Goucher,
Harvard, Mount Holyoke, Smith and Vas-
sar. Each college sent material for an
intercollegiate number, which. we read all
Friday evenng and all Saturday until
tea-time. After tea we were able to select
the final winnowed manuscripts which will
be printed by each college except Bryn
Mawr as an intercollegiate number. When
we rcv ewed the contents it was found that
Barnard, Bryn Mawr and Smith were not
represented, Harvard having contributed
the largest part of the material. There’
then arose the question whether the maga-
zine shou'd represent the best of each
college or the best of all the colleges com-
bined. It was decided that next year an
anthology would be published of the best
material and that, as a step towards that,
this number would be made up in the lat-
ter way. Because of the: change in policy,
mention was courteously made of manu-
scripts in the last round excluded because
of -only slightly. better. material....Barbara
Ling’s “There ‘Are More Things,” and
Edith Walton’s “La. Providence” were
in this list.

refuge from sordidness. Its rooms are
filled with a fascinating variety of student
vainiings, often studies of tragic types of
the-Ghetto, often crude in technique, but
never commanplace, | always vigorous and
sincere. The central room of the recon-}.
structed church preserves the original re-|
‘igious atmosphere, adding to it an in-
creased aesthetic beauty. The pillars and
chancel of Italian marble, the dim light-
ing of the seven-branched candlesticks,
contribute to an atmosphere of quiet*live-
liness. “Why should this make our less
fortunate visitors discontented?” feels Mr.
Fleisher. “Will they not be happier when
they can think of something beautiful?”

BOOK REVIEWS
“Isvor,’ By Princess Bibesco.

“Isvor” is a book for all lovers of fairy };
ales, folk lore and superstition. The author.
Princess Bibesco, who, “unlike her cousin,
‘Elizabeth Bibesco (daughter of the Earl of
Oxford), is a Roumanian by birth and mar-
riage.” describes a year at Isvor, the “coun-
try of the willows,” at a little Roumanian
viliage. She watched the Christmas and
Easter festivals, the weddings and funerals
of the peasants, and listened to the exp!ana-
tions-of all their ritual of superstition given
her by old Outza, “her servant, of how the
souls of the dead ‘live on as butterflies, of
St. George who saves the cows from vam-
pires, of St. Basil’s Night in December

It was interesting to see that the col- : :
when girls try by magic to find their lovers

leges were definitely in favor of publishing
only that which aimed at literary excel-
lence and not of representing various
types and experiments in writing which
}were not successful. The general tone of
‘the work was serious. though many light-
rer things were included, some of which
are to fe dated in the magazine.

server, who sce in all the superstition of her

New Scholarships Offered

With a preliminary gift of $3,000,000,

Senator and Mrs. Simon Guggenheim an-

Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fel-
lowships for advanced study abroad. The
fellowships will be awarded for study and
‘research broader in scope, and in more
diversified fields than the Rhodes Founda-
tion Scholarships, founded by Cecil
Rhodes, who died in 1902.

Supplementing Rhodes

“I want to supplement the great Rhodes
Foundation by providing a similar oppor-
tunity for older students of proved .ability
and for women as well as men,” an-
nounces Mr. Guggenheim. ‘Furthermore,
I want to make it possible for these per-
sons to carry” en their studies in any
country in the world where they can work -
most profitably.” ®

There is no age limit to the fellowabive,
They are open, the announcement says, to
men and women, married or unmarried,
of every race, color and*creed. They will
be available to students older than those
to whom the Rhodes Scholarships are
open, including youg professors on sab-
batical leave, holders of fellowships from
individual colleges, and those who have
won distinction in graduate study.

No restriction will be placed on subjects
to be studied or the place where study is
to be pursued. The fellowships will be
open not only to candidates engaged in
research work along academic or artistic
lines, but also those interested in the
working of foreign systems of govern-
ment, in the study of social or business
conditions or in productive scholarship in
the fields of learned professions.

..€ amount of money available for
ea... fellowship will be approximately
#2500 a year; depending on individual
needs. Ordinarily the appointments will |
be made for one year, but in special cases
plans involving two or three year’s study
will be considered, ;
The first national award will be made
for the academic year, 1926-27. It is
planned after the\first year to maintain
annually from 40 to 50 fellows abroad.

-differs-only-in-degree: tir the third place,

this definition of Dr. Gilkey’s is revolu-
tionary because it seems to leave God out
of the question. All that it involves is
that you work through to some inclusive
idea about life, some interpretation of life
that fits together all your experiences, and
then act on it. So Jong as you consist-
ently act on your idea, this interpretation
of yours can just as well be that there is
no God in the universe, no unifying prin-
ciple anywhere. Personally, it strikes me
that belief in God usually comes.as a by-
product to people who thirfk life through
this way.” Wa;

DYNAMIC LIFE OF GEORGE FOX

men in jail, he believed that inside them was
the push of a deeper spiritual power trying
desperately to find expression in life. His
followers, too, had: absolute faith in human
ature. One of them went out all alone. to
Constantinople to convert the Sultan. :
_ George Fox put authority on. a new basis.
It should*snot rest on force or tradition; it

1,should be verified by fact. He had no creed,

no infallible church, no infallible anything.
He turned people out to find the truth on
condition that they should accept nothing
unless they‘ acted upon it. .

He based philanthropy, ipon a new prin-
ciple. He believed not in alms but in the
sympathetic sharing of life with people.

He denied the current beliefs that war is
a necessary part. of humag relatianship.
People, he said, should go out and live the
ind of life which would do away with the
occasion for war.

« In géhéerat’ Fox ‘strongly opposed the idea
that what has-been shall be. All evil,-he
felt, can be remedied. coke

SCULPTURE EXHIBIT SUBJECT

sheer beauty with no messiness.
* George Biddle’s cocks, ‘designed to con-
secrate a fountain, won the ,especial ap-
probation of Miss King. They are one of
the few pieces of bronze exhibited. Med-
als by Laura Garden Fraser also evoked
her approval. They were designed as
prizes.

“The portrait of a woman by Trygve
Hammer,” commented Miss King,.“is bet-
ter than the woman in green bronze en-
titled, Hite and Mother’.” Both are
rather conventional ar¢chaisms and for that
matter so is John Gregory’s “Toy Menus.”
Three portraits portrayed real archaism
since they are suited to the subject—Gae-
tano Cecore’s “Roman Peasant;” James.
T. Porter's “Portrait 6f a Young Man,”
and Ruth Harris Bohan’s “Henrietta.”
They are charged with real feeling.

“Ruth Binding Her Hair,’ Caroline
Risque, and “Toivo,” by Walker Han-
cock, were classed as “conventional;”
whereas the portrait of a baby was
thought to show individuality.

In enumerating the affectations of the
sculpture of .the exhibition, Miss King
said that the vogue for leaving things ©
undone was in abeyance, but the archaic
Greek is more frequent. “The Spirit of
the Flapper,” by Alfred David Lenz, ‘is
an example of the awkward dancing pose.

Miss King concluded by summing up

Hete .is

the difficulties confronting the modern
sculptor. The scale of the undertaking

is in itself an obstacle, for it involves the
cost of material and transportation, Bren-
da’ Putnam was the only artist who really
met this difficulty; her “Mischievous
Faun” shows real power and reality. The
second problem is that people do not
have any use for sculpture since living
quarters. have. become.-smaller,... The Jast
difficulty is the lack of interest.
