GRACE OF CHRIST NEEDED TO
REBUILD WORLD, SAYS DR. JONES



President of Board of Trustees Demands
Practice of Christianity



Speaking in chapel last ‘Sunday evening,
Dr. Rufus Jones, president of the Board

of Trustees and the Board of Directors,
opened the religious services given under
the auspices of the Christian Association.

“It was while Paul was facing the greatest
crisis of his life,” said Dr. Jones, “that he
wrote the great words of. the benediction,
‘May the grace of our Lerd Jesus Christ
and the love of God and the fellowship of
the Holy Spirit be with you.’ This bene-
diction has been used in Christian churches
for two.thousand years, yet how few people
really know the meaning of the grace of
Christ. Most people don’t expect to receive
grace when they ask for it; it is merely
a word to them. . That is thé tragedy of
Christianity, that people assume that salva-
tion can come-through words, And Chris-
tianity is not a pious ciel it ise ae way of
life, an advénture.—

“By grace Christ means a spiritual state,
the forniation of the’ perfeeted spirit. “It
is a summary of His method and. His spirit.
a spirit of love, gentleness, forgiveness to
‘everyone, and an .ifisight into the diviner
possiblities of melt lives. Before Him
the. thod had been force, with fear ‘or
reward for its inducement. Christ knew
that to burn a man is not to prove a truth.

SOPHOMORES GET THE SONG THEY

“We're the Freshmen, we’re so green, we're

NEW ATHLETIC REQUIREMENTS
EXPLAINED BY MISS APPLEBEE



Four Periods of Exercise Required;
Juniors and Seniors May Walk



Miss Applebee, at a special meeting in the
chapel last Tuesday, described the changes
in the athletic program. The, general. pur-
pose .is to eliminate school red tape, and
to enable ‘those who are really interested
to participate in the forms of exercise that
interést them most.

For some time changes in the program
have been thought necessary. Last year
President Park chose a committee for that
purpose, but no definite. conclusions were
reached. President Park, theréfore, in con-
nection with the reorganization of the Ath-
letice Association, has ‘issued this fall the
following statement regarding exercise re
quirements which are to hold good for two
years:

Four’ periods: of physical training are re-
quired of all Freshmen and Sophomores,
resident“ and~ non-resident. In winter two
of these periods’ are classes.

‘Juniérs and Seniors, who wish to take
patt in: any form. Of inter-class practices or
matches in ariy sport are required to take
four periods of physical training throughout
the year,

Juniors. and Seniors who do not wish to
enter class athletics may substitute four
periods of general exercise for physical
training periods. Any Junior or Senior who
wishes to take any form of class work will

THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL
| v ON THE CAMPUS
Pope said:

Madam, that you are inocent, I know,

But the world wants innocence to think

you so.
Here is a motto for our campus, when
summer has gone*and winter with its

gossip has begun. There is many a

quarry for the hounds, the scent is
strong, and the pack gives tongue. Use-

less to try to evade pursuit—every earth
has been stopped and the hunt is flying
across country.

- Though you be pure and white as the
famous snow, yet will a little soot of
scandals fall upon you, Did you spend
your holiday quietly at home, hurriedly
in Europe, or curiously among the ruins
of antiquity? No matter—the mail ar-
rives. What is English,composition for
anyway, and modern means of commu:
nication? And even before this civiliza-
tion, did not Juno always find out where
Jupiter had been?

The returning travelers talk not of the
Louvre and Westminster Abbey, but of
whom they saw there. And even more
insidious are those who stayed at home,
acting as bureaus of information. It is
a prominent characteristic of Bryn
Mawrtyrs never tobe solitary; always
there are two or three gathered together.
Even on the high seas you will suddenly
meet a face with a horrid sense of recog-

nition, -

We advise, you, therefore, to obtain
the police record of each of your friends

‘and then by the Baconian method to de-

duce the rest. Remember that Bryn
Mawrtyrs are like the notorious Marches,
and “the Marches are never let off any-
thing.”

CONTEMPORANEOUS

This week seems indeed to be opening
in the grand manner, Not only is Mon-
day important on this side of the water
as the first day of real adjustment to
curriculum, but also it stands high in
European annals as the opening date of
the Locarno parley and the closing date
of eleven years of partial prohibition in
Russia. Think of it!—the fifth day of
October marks the realization of every-
one’s happiness! The Bryn Mawrtyr is in
her comfortable rut; Europe is about to

his vodka undisturbed.



THE DANGER OF A QUORUM
- On the campus we live in a small com-
munity according to its own prescribed
rules of conduct, under the conventions
of a definite social system. These are
good; for they strengthen our purpose,
the Munction of the college, and make
smooth the busy, complex round of daily
|life.. On the athletic field we learn team-
work of the best kind, voluntary, quick,
and natural. In the class-room, in the
class-meeting, amd the association meet-
ings, we work in large groups, following
established programs. Business goes on
from breakfast to the last goodnight.
And even sleep is often disturbed for the

common cause of a fire-drill!

was a beautiful cut-paper trouser-frill

the chicken pie, meltingly, tenderly

Some Opinions, Definitions, Ideas

Why ‘so many papers are “glorified bul-

according* to the importance of organiza-
tions who seek publicity, not scl caine to
the news value of what is done. He spreads
announcements on the front page with all
the academic blah attached thereto by the
secretary’s office; instead of lumping them
in a box in a corner. His freshmen heelers
can’t prune out the woody words. He has
no list of cliches; expressions which are
down and should be out. He has no general
reference books and statistics. His ‘statistics,
when he has them, look like a sociology
report; as impersonal-and officious as pos-
sibly can be. He hasn’t read The Best News
Stories of 1924.

Why are women’s papers poorer than
men’s? .The men are thinking in terms
of a career. The university serves . only
as oyster for the paper. The women are
either spending time preparatory to marriage,
or planning to reform the nasty ,printer’s

He speaks not for himself, but as the best-

concluded with. an amusing criticism of
the College overheard in a preparatory
school,

“Bryn Mawr?. I’d never go there! There
are only two kinds of girls, the ones who
come out in New York and the ones who
drudge at college. And they all speak so
affectedly. They have a néw president
there, and he makes them talk that way.”

“This reception is a splendid send-off
for the co-operation so desirable between
graduate and undergraduate, -and—I hope
it may be only a beginning, and not a good-
bye, to association between the two groups
of students,” said Miss Winifred Kydd,
President of the Graduate Club. |

Miss Applebee exhorted the undergradu-,
ates to acquire a backbone, to shun a swishy-
swashy way of living, and to act, not like
hens,’ but like human beings. She said
further that both individual and community
backbone would be more than ever neces-

$ary~this~-year; since the “Athletic” Depart-

ment had no_ intention of spetiding its
energies on the Weary Willies. We must
keep away from Bryn Mawr the type which
parades abroad in crowds, shouting, “Hail,
hail, the gang’s all here,” and giving the
impression that College is a sort of reforma-

si tory. Each student, she added, should de-

In the spring there will be lacrosse, bas-

archery.

Miss Applebee gave out blanks listing the
above periods, to be filled out by each stu-
dent and to be returned to her as soon as
possible. Each student taking required ex-
ercisé inust check the forms of physical
training she intends to go out for and
throughout the year her attendance at these
classes will be required.

Miss Leuba, will teach the rhythmic danc-
ing, and three separate divisions of begin-
ners, medium and advanced will be formed
after the tryouts next week.

Lacrosse will be coached by Miss Thomp-
son, of England. It is interesting to note
that there are two freshmen from England
and an English graduate student from Wy-
‘kam Wry School, especially noted for its
team, who all play soccer: and in the very
near future a team is to be made up and
a game will be played to show us how it is
really done. :

The squad system is to be substituted for
the nerve-racking team system formerly
used, By the new system people who want
to play sign up with their captains. Then
each captain will. divide her people into
three squads. Each squad will play every
day at the same time. Thus one look at the
board in Taylor will suffice to see which
squad you are in and what hours it plays,
and all the former daily hurry .and bustle
will be obviated. No one will call you out.
You may play whatever days it is most con-
venient. Another difficulty _ will also...be
eliminated. According to the team system,
people were often forced to play in games
before they could really play. Now there
will be much more opportunity for good
and intensive coaching.

Those taking general exercise may
sign only one period a day. Those taking
required exercise may register two. Regu-
lar athletic costume must be worn for re-
quired exercise, while semi-athletic or sports
clothes should be worn for general exercise.
Two cuts are allowed. everyone each month:

The Athletic Association is now working
out a system of class blazers to be earned
by a certain number of points. Points will
be given according to regular attendance
as well as excellence in playing, therefore
everyone is advised to sign up all her pe-
riods of exercise, provided she does not ex-
ceed the two-a-day allowance. Insignia to
be worn on the pocket of the blazer will be
awarded solely for proficiency.

It may be perhaps startling to realize that
American women are almost 20 years behind
the women of other nations in athletics.
Take for example hockey, In England, ac-
cording to an article in The Sportswoman,
there are some 800 affiliated . women’s
hockey clubs and perhaps a hundred more.or
less independent ones. . To have a pro-
portionate number of American women
keeping in trim in hockey we should have
more than 2700 clubs—as a matter of fact
we have about 20. f

This simple commercial house
changed the nature of its commerce; in-

in rags, and before us lie sacks of. these
rags scattered in all directions on. the
counters and shelves, And after. Standing
a short time in these musty smelling
rooms, you can guess what it is all about.
At nine o’clock the sacks begin to move
and cough. And after Standing there a
little longer. you can hear the morning

conversation of these people #ho sleep ~

in such unseemly positions,

— Serzha, comes a voice from some-
where on the ‘shelves, why didn’t you
wake me up?....didn’t you promiing: last
night.

— Well; I would Navi waked you up if
I hadn’t overslept myself... is it really
late?

— Ten. ’

— Hm... yes... Shall I go to sleep for
another hour?... asks*Serezha into space,

— All right, comes a convincing voice
from another corner, and so our life is
like the sleep of the blessed...

And then from another section is heard
the following:

a eae eins

— Your reverences, amphitheatre and .

balcony, to one side, the gallery wants to
get down to the parterre. Hey, Archi-
medes, get your leg out of the way...

— My finger, my finger! You blind
dumbell, don’t.you see you're ey on
my hand

So goés the morning rising, or dithabe,
the crawling down from the upper shelves
of those who have been tossed so high by
the wave of fate. It must be said that in
all there are eight shelves. In fun they
are called: the two lower, boxes: the two
above them, the amphitheatre; the two
higher, the balcony, and finally, the top
ones, the gallery.

There is in the warehouse also a wom-
en's department. And if we go there, we
will see that~the inhabitants of the “de-
partment” have long since awakened and
are now studying. As they are already
up, we can go in to them, and get ac-
quainted without any embarrassment.

— You mathematicians are lucky folks,
says a girl in a rich contralto turning to
a group studying analysis...

— And what makes you so unhappy,
little social déientist?

— Why not?... up to yesterday I was

‘working to get ready for a seminar on _

“government Organization, went over doz-
ens of books, and today, before eight
o'clock in the evening I have to read
through a whole mountain to.be able to
say something if just for the sake of
propriety, about the history of material-
ism...

— Why say anything at all...

— Yes, not say anything... and then
tell us how they won’t give me any
credits.

— It’s impossible that they have been
giving you so many books to read
through for every seminar. — ,

— So you don’t believe me, Tonechka?
Don’t believe me? Then listen to what
they gave us for today’s seminar: Ple-
chanov, “Growth of Monistic View of

History,” chap. II and III; then Engels, °

“Letters,” letters '7, to 11, and 13;‘further,
Derobin, three pages from...

Thus we will learn at last that before
us are women students, and next to them

jin the other departments men students,

and the dry goods warehouse itself is now

itory. :

It is morning. A large part of the stu-—

dents are already up. A few are drinking
hot water with a bite of sugar and pieces

— I say,,Valerka, did you earn much
yesterday at the warehouse?

The student answers darkly:

— Not very darned much! After tak-
ing out the feé at the employment bureau
and the tramways there isn’t more than
You can’t get along
on work from the employment bureau.

At nine in the ‘evening they gather
again. The rooms, more like the tombs

of giants than like living quarters are |-

dimly lit by the glimmer of two or three
16-candle power lamps. The dirty walls
weep, filling the damp air with the steam
of their tears. In the dormitory there is
noise and uproar. To read or to write is
impossible. So the students break up
into groups and either argue over “high-
matters”-or-sing: ~-The-air-is~ stifling. It
is cold, as the management of the build-
ing-heats only in daytime, for the mer-
chants whose stores are there. On Sun-
day, they don’t heat at all (the stores are
closed). The darkness of the surround-
ings strengthens the closeness and casts
a heavy blanket on consciousness.

One longs for air, light, sun. And it is
probably this wish that leads several
studerits to sing of the sun.

_. Arise, arise, red sun... begins a high
vibrating voice.

—... red sun... repeat several voices,
and the song has begun.

The voices are passionate, full of long-
ing...

Sliding down into a soft harmony, the
sounds steal out through the dark dor-
mitory.

— Warm us..., sings a boy with spots
of unhealthy red flushing his cheeks, and
in his :voice sounds a passionate prayer,
a passionate longing to be caressed by
the sun. ‘

—... good children... hum the rest,
drawing out. finer the sick boy’s passion-
ate prayer.

The song has séized all. -Eyes shine,
fingers clench convulsively. And it seems
as though these people cannot hold back,
they fancy themselves Volga wavelets
and will go to break down the barriers to
the sun.

After the song nearly always there
comes into the confused heads a desire
:o carry on the growing confusion. And so
the students, gathering about the singers,
do not separate to go to their kennel

shelves, but begin a discussion at once. |

‘They talk long, perplexedly, going from
one subject to another.

— You say, then, Yakonchug, that the
life of society is composed of the equal
effects of an infinitely great number of
forces. All right; but tell me, please,
what force sets in this or that -position
the single little. force which in the final
end conditions the position of the equal
effects?

— Hm.., why, there’s nothing to an-

swer there, says Yakonchug authorita-
tively, everyone knows that that. force is

They argue ad absurdum, getting mixed
up.in understanding and terminology, go
to any and allelengths.

At two in the morning the dormitory is
clothed in darkness. Somewhere there is
the sound of snoring or of the scamper-
ing or rats, of which, it should be said,
the dormitory has more than enough.

In the morning all go out from the

dormitory, some to the library, some to

lectures, but most of all to a search for
work, or to the work itself. But of the
latter lucky ones there are few, and if
there happens to be work, it is hard work,
the men to loading, the women to wash-
Work_is—now—hard_to—find.
This explains, of course, the fastening of
torn shoes with wire, and the talk about
baked bread as of an ideal. In spite -of
such sad conditions, melancholy and
whining among us are not to be found. The
population of the dormitory and the over-
whelming majority of the proletarian
students have been used from childhood
to all kinds of troubles.
students live, of course, even worse. To
go out to the hard physical labor which
is sometimes to be had is beyond their
strength. So they hunger terribly? and as
a result fall sick with tuberéulosis, neu-
rasthenia and similar misfortunes.

Once in a while the whole dormitory
gathers in the “club,” a large room, also
formerly serving as a warehouse. Coun-
ters there are none, all taken away, the
shelves have remained entire. On the
raised platform made of broken counters
stands the chorus. Several songs are
sung with intervals of individual decla-
mation, and the celebrations, so to speak.
close this part of the evening. Then
begins the non-celebrating part, in which
take place dances, songs popular in the
Red Army, and flirting. They dance to
self-forgetfulness, flirt to the same limits,
and try to talk in the presence of the

other sex only of sex questions. ,

The party ends at three or four in
the. morning.

That is all. And with that, I think,
it is safe to close the description of our
dormitory.

Isn’t our dormitory like the other stu-
dent dormitories? é

AS NEXT VARSITY PLAY

Pulitzer Prize: Play by Owen Davis
Chosen for First Performance



“Icebound,” by Owen Davis, has been
selected by the Varsity Dramatics Com-
mittee for its first performance ‘on No-
vember 20 and 21. This’ play, which won
the ,Pulitzer Play Prize a few years ago,
was produced in New York 6n February
10, “1923, with “a. cast including Phyllis,
Robert Ames, Willard Robertson;

Edna May Oliver. and other well-known
——agtors and_actresses,—

The scene of the ae is laid in North-
ern Maine. Owen Davis wrote of it: “I
am now turning toward my. own people,
the people of Northern New England,
whose. folklore, up-to the present time,
has’ been quite neglected in our theatre.
| mean, of course, that few serious at-
tempts have been made in the direction
of a genre comedy of this locality. Here
I have at least tried to draw a true pic-
ture of these people, and I am of their
blood, born of generations of Northern
Maine, small-town folk, and brought up
among them,”

With this introduction Mr. Davis has

Povah,

“written a play of unusual dramatic in-

tensity, strong character interest and
powerful atmosphere. The plot deals
with the fortunés of the Jordan family
following a crisis in their affairs, the
death of the mother and the return of
the younger son. Dominating the scene
is Jane Crosby, the cousin, whose
strength and cleverness are the support
of the family. “Icebound” offers axtraor-
dinary opportunity for skilful, sincere
acting. For this reason, as well as for
the interest of the play itself, it should
prove extremely worth-while.
