“STUDENT. CONFERENCE

HELD AT GOUCHER

Deleyates, From Eastern Colleges
Discuss Students’ Relations
to International Affairs





* ENGLISH CONFERENCE PLANNED



(Specially contributed by the Liberal Club
delegates, M. Rodney ’24 and » Smith,

aT

Forty-three ‘delegates. from more than
twenty colleges in the Easter1f States met
at Goucher College December 6th and 7th
| “Youth
arid the Peacemakers.”

“This imposing title really meant that
the conference tried, first, to judge with
‘fair-mindedness the. questions of the en-
trance of the United States into the
League of Nations, and of the reparations
tangle between France and Germany. The
second and more important aspect of the
convention was the formulation of the ma-
jority opinion into resolutions and plans
for bringing the whole question before the
student : body of. the respective colleges.
The conference inaugurated the idea that’
an international conference be held next

summer in England, for the purpose of

bringing together students from France,
Germany, England, America, and possibly
other countries, to discuss the ecénomic
and political problem of Europe, particu-
larly relating to France and Germany in
the “Ruhr.
vague, but the meeting voted to place ar-
rangements for the proposed conference in
the hands of the Executive Committee of
the National -Student Forum, assisted—by
an Advisory Committee from colleges rep-
resented at the Goucher Conference.

Four addresses were given to the dele-
gates. On Friday morning President
Emeritus Thomas spoke on the subject,
The Past Five Years in Europe, stressing
the awful’ conditions on the contirient, bur-
dened by French militarism, Germany’s
collapse, and the Turkish policy in the Near
East. -“We must,” she said, “compel our
primitive-minded Senate to join the
League.” She told us that we could help
by. converting our parents, and said that
the only way it could be achieved was by
pledging individual “candidates of both
parties for Congress or for President to
take a definite stand for the League.

In the afternoon Dr. Katherine Gallagher,

professor of History at Goucher College,

spoke on the reparations question and its
results in the international affairs. In an
able and delightful speech, Dr. Gallagher
first explained & amount of the debt and
the details of its payment as provided by
the Treaty. She stated that the debt, or
rather the indemnity, owed to other coun-
tries, particularly France, by Germany,
could be paid only by a long continued
surplus of Germany exports over imports.
But since “Germany has never in the last
twenty years had such a surplus she can-
not be expected to pay her debt now, espe-
cially since she has lost so much of her

former means of production. Granted that

Germany cannot pay, France must bear al-
most the whole burden of the war. She

|GLEE CLUB IS TO GIVE CAROL
CONCERT ON FRIDAY EVENING

_—_ ——

Members of Philadelphia Orchestra

and Rosemont Choir Are To Assist |



On Friday. evening at 8.15, in Taylor
Hall, the Glee Club, assisted by. membets
of the Philadelphia Orchestra and by the
choir of the Good Shepherd Church, Rose-
mont, will give a Carol Concert.

Thjs concert, which has far outgrown in
proportions phe plans originally made, is
an innovation in” the “type of entertain-
ment” given by the Glee Club. Previously
operettas have been présented every year,
except on those of the May Day celebra-
tion, when there was usually no activity
on the part of the Club. This year, how-
ever, more enterprise and a greater inter-
est has been shown.

The program will consist of many of
the favorite old French and English Carols,
such as.the “Minuit Chretien”; several
Bach Chorales, and#Rimsky-Korsakov’s
“Come, Kolyada.” Besides these there will
be sung’ the entire 148th Psalm, set to music
by Holst. Neither Glee Club nor the Choir
has ever before attempted a whole psalm.

The power and richness of-the. singing

| will-be greatly increased by the male voices

of the Rosemont choir and by the group of
string instruments from the Philadelphia
Orchestra. The players. composing the
group are: Mr. Alexander Thiede and Mr.
Harry Aleinikoff, first and second violins ;
Mr. Romain Verney, cello;: Mr. William
Schmidt; violoncello, and finally, Mr, Anton
Torello, ;

SUMMER SCHOOL SCHOLAR-
SHIPSTO BE RAISED THIS WEEK

School Supported By Contributions;
Students Will Speak at Tea Sunday



Scholarships for the Simmer School will
be raised in a drive beginning tomorrow.
The goal is one scholarship from each hall,
and pledges made now may be put on any
pay day. ;

Two hundred dollars pays the expenses
of one student for the summer. These
scholarships are being raised all over the
country, and are the only financial re-
sources of. the School; since it is not en-
dowed at all. Each town-has its quota,
and the country is organized in districts.

Miss Ely has lent her house for a tea
next Sunday afternoon, at which two Sum-
mer School students will speak. Miss Ada
Rosenfelt, an organizer for the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers, now working in
New York, who is the first woman to man-
age her union, and Miss Sophie Schmidt,
a glove, tobacco, greenhouse, and electric
coil worker, who is now studying at the
Misses Kirks’ School in preparation for
the University of Wisconsin, where she has
been given a scholarship.

M. GUSTAVE FERRARI GIVES
RECITAL, OF FRENCH SONGS

Under the auspices of the French Club,
‘Monsieur Gustave Ferrari gave a recital
of, French songs dating from the twelfth
century to the present day, in Taylor Hall
on the evening of December 4.

The singer commented on French songs
in general and those of his programme in
particular, tracing their development and
tendencies. He accompanied himself and

'! interpreted the songs as an actor. The pro-
| gramme included: Bergére Légére, Auprés

de ma Blonde, Il’ était une Bergére, Les
‘Cloches de Nantes and the modern songs:
‘La Statue de Bronze of Erik Satie, Le
Coeur dé Ma Mie of Dalcroze, and Im-

pression Fausse of Verlaine and Poldowski.



MR. BLANCHARD DISCUSSES
STUDENT RELATION TO LABOR



College Students Must Appreciate
Human Aims of Labor



: B
Paul Blanshard, ‘Field Secretary of the
Leagug for Industrial _Democracy, ad-
dressed the Liberal Clubylast Friday night
on “What College Girls Gan Do For
Laborers.” “Mr. Blanshard has been. or-
ganizer for both the Amalgamated Textile
and Clothing Workers’ Unjons and has
iatight classes in Rochester, N. Y., which
have sent students to attend the Bryn
Mawr Summer School. He has been speak-
ing in New England, and will lecture on
the Pacific Coast,

The best way to start bridging the gap
between college students and labor, began
Mr. Blanshard, is to have an appreciation
of the human values of the aims of labor.
In connection with the demand for higher
wages, it is well to realize that the majority
of the manual working. class do not receive
a “living wage.” This means that thefe is
class division and a “working class,’” These
people do not have the leisure, energy, or
habit of’ command that come’ with ‘vaca-

Determined Defense ~

The Alumnae made a determined, though

unsuccessful, stand against Varsity on Sat-
urday, losing 11-3.

After yielding in the first half with a
score of 8-0, the Alumnae improved greatly
in the second, and held Varsity to. three
goals to their three, putting up a brave
though less skillful fight against obviously
superior training and stick work. The ball
was rushed from one end to the other.
Miss G. Hearne '19, as center forward,
made her line into a co-ordinated unit.

The play was kept more in the center of
the field than most games this year, and
there were many long dribbles without
much interpassing on the Varsity forward
line. D, Lee ’25, smashed hard, well-
aimed shots into the goal, and the clever

FRESHMEN PRESENT COURT
OF OZ IN A FINISHED SKIT

Chorus Dancers Perform Difficult
.. Steps; Original Individual
Stunts Given

WOOZIE NEW GREEN ANIMAL

_





The full splendour of Glinda’s Court in
the Land of Qz was displayed by the Fresh-
man class.in their skit to the Sophomores,
Saturday night,

As an opportunity to show a great* re-
sourcé of talent/the scene was well chosen
and the excellence of the individual stunts
and chorusés disguised the, slightness of
the plot, ;

The’committee should be congratulated
not/only on tthe high degree of finish in
the whole performance, but also on rhym-
ing the whole skit and creating such a great
variety of dance steps. The.costumes and
scenery were in effectiveness quite worthy
of a full-fledged Freshman show, although
the singing fell short of the average stand-
ard,

When the curtains parted, the enchan-
tress, Glinda (E. Aldcroft), enthroned and

surrounded by her. maidens, rose majesti-

cally and lamented the fate that hung over
the land. Oz would be destroyed unless
three mortals, turned to stone by a wicked
magician, were restored to life before the
next day. The intervening time was to be
passed as pleasantly as possible in the hope
that a means of salvation would be found
before it was too late.

Three of her maidens (J. Cheney, H.
Fitz, M. Hand) then rose and danced be-
fore her in a delightfully, carefree and
graceful manner. When: they had retired,
the stage began to fill, for, as the heralds
announced them,
oblings, Gilikins, Quadlings and Citizens
marched in with impressive rhythm. The
procession reached a climax when Ozma
“the fair ruler of the land” appeared and
with an unusually clear and sweet voice
sang of her-effort to save the kingdom.

As she joined Glinda on the dais the
Crooked Magician (C. Swift) entered,
crouching and sinister, and admitted he was
powerless to free the mortals. Glinda, tow-
ering in rage, angrily dismissed him: The
scene was tense, but in the nick of time
entered an ‘infectious band of blue and scar-
let devils with a song and dance as im-
pudent and jaunty as themselves.

The appearance of Professor Wogglebug
came as a strong contrast. The professor,
described by the herald as “slow as a bug
j - in a rug,” dilated-on his painless
pills of knowledge and the incomparable
joys of his college with a truly flavored
scholasticism. The part was taken by M.
Villard, whose cadaverous appearance and
dry-as-dust tones stood out in the evening’s
acting.

A warm welcome greeted the somersault-
ing gnomes who followed on the professor
to clear the air. Theirs was a rollicking
performance -and when in their, intrigate

chainwork occasional links were missed the

effect seemed delightfully intentional.

More sophisticated were the Teddy-Bears.

TOWARD THE FUTURE

The changing social order about which
we hear so much is a nearer thing than we
have realized. Heralded by the recent gen-
eral election in England, resulting in such
a large Labor Party representation, it is a
phenomenon well worth the watching. The
changes in the direction of government
ownership and the “socialization of indus-
try,
employment, from a totally different point
of view, would change the whole basis_of
accustomed society. Even without a min-
istry committed to labor policies, the large
representation in Parliament is a sign of
the changing times in the future; the steady
increase in Labor Party numbers of the
eventual success, or rather succession, of
the Labor Party to the government of Eng-
land.

HISTORICAL HOCKEY
An ancient Greek bas relief, which de-
picts a hockey game was recently found
during the construction of a new shop at
Athens and has been sent to London to
be placed in the British Museum. \
That hockey, as we know it, was such
an old sport seems incredible, but an ex-
amination of the relief sets aside doubts.
It shows five players who hold hooked
sticks in the right hand. The two in the
center are leaning toward each other at
thé bully with sticks crossed over the ball,
-while the others stand on either side with
sticks poised and heads turned, watching
‘the start. The sixth figure is empty handed
and stands with left hand raised, as if he
were the unipire giving the signal for the
start.
Archaeologists are said to have searched
the dictionaries in vain for a Greek coun-
terpart of the modern game. The lexicog-
rapher, Pollux, describes a game which
he calls “episkyros” which appears to have
some connection with the game we know,
although he suggests throwing rather than,
striking.’ However, although the identity
of the Greek sport cannot be exactly estab-
lished we may pride ourselves on playing

c ON A CURRENT QUESTION
Our life is narrow, aimless; our thoughts
are thin. and low;

We live for easy pleasures, for ardent
effort? no!

The thinkers of the, College this tendency
behold; ‘

Wit ith exhortations urgent recall us to their
fold,

But we are stubborn sinners, and with rea-
sons, too, ©

For how can one think deeply with study-.

ing to do?
The universe is“infinite and wonderful no
; doubt,
But where goes contemplation when quizzes
‘ are about,
We are quite stiperficial, we talk of col-
lege things, .
Avoiding sentimental, celestial fancyings.

This fact is sure arid cértain ; on it I have

no doubt;
I’d rather never think at all than think,
and so flunk out.

. A TEST

Two months of the system which places
the men on a basis of outside work and
individual initiative has shown‘a marked
response in Princeton students, according
to the New York Times.

This system allows” the student to spe-
cialize with the privilege of unlimited re-
search at his own discretion. The knowl-
edge that the instruction will have little
significance in his final standing, but that
he will rest on his own merits gives him
a feeling of responsibility and pride in his
work that more restrictive methods destroy.

The quality of inteHectual work that will
flourish under this system: should make

concern for those that will fail unneces-4

sary. They would not have risen above
mediocrity in any case.

Princeton has taken a step that shill
separate the students for whom the Uni-
versity is intended from those students who
claim its advantages under false pretenses.

When the experiment is over, the pro-
portion of failures and successes will be
a comment on the quality of undergradu-
ate minds in all American colleges.

THE GOUCHER CONFERENCE

All those who are wont to bewail the
indifference of students to foreign affairs
are asked to read the account of the con-
ference held at Goucher College last Fri-
day and Saturday. Arising from the in-
terest which a small group of girls felt in
world problems, it finally materialized into
a full-fledged conference, with delegates
from twenty-four eastern colleges, ranging
in location from Massachusetts to North
Carolina, and in size from colleges of three
or four hundred students, like Bryn Mawr,
to universities, with thousands, such as
Pennsylvania. Every shade of. student in-
terest was represented, even to the inclusion
of two communists from Chicago, one of
whom edits a paper known as The Young
Worker.- In the traditional manner of con-
ferences the delegates. heard speeches on
the various problems for discussion, but
contrary to the usual method both sides of
the case were presented. No report is given

of the interesting remarks made by: the}. .

students themselves, who were’ quick and

intelligent at catching up the speakers on].

points with which they differed, in spite of
far less actual knowledge. That the opin-
ions expressed were thoughtful and based
upon facts, was strikingly brought out in
‘| the inability of some of the older members
to meet the attacks of the young ones.
It-is.a pity that the time and expense
'|involved prevent such conferences from
‘| being held more often. They are valuable

to the students for the information and

stimulus to thought which result from them, |

(Editors do noi hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)-
In the recent discussion.about Freshman

Rules.a tremendous influence on all classes

throughout College has been imputed to

thém. They are spoken of as the one main
cause of all class distinction, and of all
the artificiality in our relationships.

It is felt that the injustice of calling,
merely cordial people “fresh,” and the ma-
licious things said about friendships be-
tween people of different classes would all
be abolished by removing: the Rules.

There are some, however, who feel that
Freshman Rules have no such power. ‘The
childish things that we say and do because
we are ifi a different class from some one
else, are certainly not due to the rules im-
posed upon us for one year in college.
They are due rather to human nature and
our personal and individual characteristics.

| Upper classmen résent “freshness” becatfse

of their own sense of pride, a characteristic
‘which they certainly possessed before they
ever heard of Freshman Rules, and which
they would still possess had Freshman
Rules never existed.

In the same way the public opinion which
says “Stick to your own class,” will con-
tinue to say it regardless of rules. - It is
due to something in the individual and
-which ohly the individual can remedy.
There is, however, one tangible evil which

_|may reasonably ‘be traced to Freshman

Rules. as its chief cause,;- that is the un-
friendliness which grows up between Fresh-
men and Sophomores. A Freshman comes
to college to find that the Sophomores are
to regulate her conduct and to impart to
her their large store-of etiquette culled
from:.one year’s experience, and naturally,
in many cases, she resefms ‘it.

The difficulty lies, then, not so much in
the existence of Freshman Rules as in the
way they are “enforced.” Removing the
rules will not change the: attitude of the
upper classmen, but will leave the Fresh-
men without any idea of how they are to
accept that attitude. But if the rules are
written in the Handbook not as “Freshmen
Rules,” but as “College Traditions,” to-
gether with other traditions not pertaining
to Freshmen alone, and if they are ex-
plained to the Freshmen by the Junior
president in the same spirit as the other
matters which she tells them, the Fresh-
man-Sophomore difficulty will be solved.

NEW BOOK Room ®

Seven Ages, a brief and simple narrative
of the pilgrimage of the human mind as
it has affected the English speaking world,
by a Gentlethan with a Duster.

This book, according to the introduction,
“represents a model effort to assist’ average
persons in the .English speaking Gorld to
} understand the roots of their thinking, and
conducts the reader to at least some of the
chief battle grounds of controversy out of
which the thoughts of man have emerged
to their present fashion of looking at life
and the. universe.” It disclaims any in-
tention “to teach the least instructed what
he should think, but suggests to him: first,
that history is mental travel; second, that
evolution is a term signifying the work of
mind and matter; and third, that if all
rights and privileges have been purchased
for us by: the past, some at least of our
obligation? and duties belong to the future.”

. “The most important of these obliga- ~
tions is that of rational and effective think*
ing, for the one flood which bears men
from change to change flows in the-human .
mind.” “To think wrongly may be dis-
astrous, but it is not criminal. To think
indifferently on the other hand is to com-
mit a supreme crime against the future of
humanity.”

The author ‘studies the ages of Socrates,
Aristotle, Jesus, Augustine, Erasmus, Crom-
well, and Wesley from the point of view
expressed above. .

Pierre Curie, by Marie Curie. This book
ig;gvritten so simply and so directly that
one feels it would not have existed at all
had not the author been urgently requested
to record a great man’s life for the world.

The-personal and scientific episodes are
written down just as they occurred, with
such fondness and insight that we have an
intimate picture of Pierre Curie, and
through’ the book itself and her relation
to him, of Marie Sklodowska Curie.

She writes of her husband: “He lived
on a plane so rare and so elevated that he
sometimes seemed to me a. being unique
in his freedom from all vanity and from
the littleness that one discovers in oneself
and in others.” Again, “He had the faith
of those who open new ways. He knew
that he had.a high mission to fulfill, and
the mystic dream of his youth pushed him
invincibly beyond the usual oath of life in
a way which he called anti-natural be-
cause it signified the renunciation of the
pleasures of life.”

6

The man’s continual fight against mate-
rial circumstances, which she more than
shared with him, leads her to conclude
sadly: “For the admirable gift of himself
and for the magnificent service which he
rendered humanity, what reward does our
society offer the scientist? Have these
servants of an idea the necessary means
of work? Have they an. assured existence
sheltered from care? The example of
Pierre Curie and of others shows that they
have none of these things; our society in
which reigns and eager desire for riches
and lusuries does not understand the value
of science.”

. FACULTY NOTES

Miss King spent the Thanksgiving vaca-
tion motoring in Virginia. She says of her
trip: “I saw the University of Virginia,
with its beautiful quadrangle, planned by
Thomas Jefferson, which testifies entirely
to the influence of French thought. upon
him;—as indeed upon~—all the founders of
our republic. We saw it under a wintry
sunset, in a chill and marvelous_twilight.
At Monticello we lay on the grass in the
sun and looked at the dome, and the blue
dome overhead, and the wide view around,
and felt how nobly that great Deist had
chosen the place in which to end his days
of neditation.”

Dr. Ferree and Dr. Rand presented by
invitation a paper on Lighting in Relation
to the Eye, at the Forty-ninth Annual

Meeting of the New Jersey Sanitary Asso-
ciation, held at ‘Sted New aie

~But that hour rose to the occasion, for,
as the lights flashed on, Ojo made a tri-
umphant appearance. He had discovered
the spell that would save the land. It was
nothing less than three hairs from the tail
of the Woozie, an indescribable animal of
cubistic, though self-sacrificing tendencies,
who wag ushered on to the stage by means
of a string about his neck and a’ castor
projecting from each hoof, the light that
‘never was on land or sea, emanated by a
candle in his cerebrum, gleaming through
his two basilisk eyes. Each one of his
three hairs when brewed in Glinda’s caul-
dron would revive a mortal turned to stone.
And, as Glinda stirred the mixture, three
gym-suited figures came-on the stage: one
light blue, one red, one dark blue. Oz
was saved! Then with truly heartfelt re-
lief the cast joined in the animal song.

the wémen of Japan at this present time,”
began Mrs. Abaku. “You all know what
has happened in Japan. The terrible. catas-

trophe has left in ruins the Capital and?

the chief port and wrought destruction in
towns and villages fifty miles around.
Three hundred thousand lives were lost,
and homes almost beyond number.

“As a Japanese woman, | wish to thank
all Americans for what the American Red
Cross has done for Japan at this hour of
need, The whole nation knows and appre-
ciates it beyond expression. I*know this
sympathy and gratitude will bind our na-
tions closer in friendship. But after food
and "shelter have been provided, there are
still needs that touch the very soul of the
nation, and it is one of these that brings
me here today: the, total destruction of
Bryn’ Mawr’s child, Tsuda College. Many
of you perhaps have heard of this institu-
tion founded by Ume Tsuda, the first Japa-
nese woman who studied in Bryn Mawr
College. It is in these very surroundings
of Bryn Mawr that Ume Tsuda received
the inspiration and aspiration to bring
about the uplift of her own sex in Japan.

“After years of struggle, Tsuda College
grew to its present position, known
throughout the country because it produces
leaders of modern Japan. The girls are
known to be high minded, efficient, and
really well educated. Opportunities of
higher education for women in Japan’ are
limited. There ‘are thirty-three universities

for men but only seven collegiate institu-

tions for women.

“The position of women is fifty years,

behind that of the American women, I am
afraid. Yet the economic conditions are
forcing the women of Japan to work out-
side their homes... Consequently they are
demanding more opportunities of educa-
tion. As my sister,‘ Ume Tsuda, once
said, “The question is, shall the develop-
ment be under .wise guidance, leading
higher lives, or shall women. be undisci-
plined, impetuous, crude, unreasoning; and
so not only break up the home, but menace
the nation.

“This guidance, her college has tried. to
give during these twenty-three years. Now
on the material side, everything is gone.

classrooms, three dormitories with all their
equipment, library, gymnasium, five teach-

jers’ houses with pgetty little Japanese gar-

At an ordinary time,
the Alumnae would have rallied to help,

son, you must think of New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore and Washington all

ing given by the united effort of those
whose lives have been enriched by Bryn
Mawr. I hear Wellesley has taken Peking

I hope Bryn Mawr will adopt: Tsuda Col-
lege as its sister institution, because Tsuda

Bryn Mawr to give us a permanent build-

HELD AT GOUCHER

for her part has borrowed until she can
borrow no’ more and is facing economic
ruin. . What she now wants is security
from the possible revenge of a future, re-
habilitated Germany. According to Dr.
Gallagher, England, France and Germany
are all activated by motives of self-interest.
‘There is no moral issue involved.
_ Two round’ table discussions, one led by

Douglas Haskell, Editor of the New Stu-
dent, on the disintegration of Germany,
and one on the results of the Ruhr policy
to the British industrial situation, occupied
Friday evening. Qn. Saturday we heard
both sides of the League question. -Dr.
Herbert Adams Gibbons, Professor of His-
tory at Princeton, pointed out the faults
of the League, due fo the fact that it “had
no teeth,” and urged us to study the his-
tory’ of America’s foreign relations, and
the international relations of Europe, long
and carefully béfore starting off on any
panacea for the ills of the world. Mr,
Charles “H. Levermore, Secretary of the
World Court League and the League of
Nations Union based his case for the
League and the entrance of the United
States into it on its past accomplishments
in stopping or preventing six wars, and on
its widespread humanitarian activities.
Animated discussions for and against the
League, and concerning France’s motives
in the Ruhr followed all these addresses,
enlivened by the most interesting delegate
of all, Mr. Martin Abern, a young Com-
munist from Chicago. His
against the League of Nations, France’s
policy in the Ruhr, the rapproachement of
French and German capitalists, presented
the point of view of the workers who see
little hope of success and no sincerity in
any attempt by capitalist governments to
prevent war. :

In the final meeting on. Saturday night
the conference, unhampered by the pres-
ence of older people, expressed itself in
several resolutions. The first was a peti-
tion to President Coolidge to release all
the--fifty political prisoners still in jail.
Twenty-four expressed themselves in favor
of sending the resolution, and eighteen ab-
stained from voting, on the ground that it
had not been discussed sufficiently to. per-
mit of @ definite decision. Mr. Abern’s
resolution that the only body really for
peace, disarmament, and the international
welfare of the people was the Third In-
ternational, was defeated by a vote of
twenty-four to fwo, with fifteen not vot-
ing. The final resolution, to the effect that
the United States should join the League
of Nations as‘an effective means of pro-
moting the peace of the world was car-
’ ried, thirty-five to three, with only two
not voting.

To us the fundamental accomplishments
of the conference were fourfold. First,
its very nature as a spontaneous undertak-

- ing on the part of students, without prompt-

~

advantage to the delegates gained from
hearing and discussing with people of
varied viewpoints all sides of the League
of Nations and .reparations issues; third,
the hoped-for stimulus to collegiate opin-
ion in general from the interest and en-
thusiasm of the delegates; and finally, the
proposals for the international conference.
We cannot sufficiently express our admira-
tion ‘for the Goucher Ethics Club and_the
inestimable value of the conference which
it inaugurated. :

DR. FITCH LECTURES °
ON CHRISTIANITY



Value of His - Teachings Lies -in
Intrinsic Worth Not End



The necessity, of Netinguishing between
the historical and the sentimental Christ
was emphasized by Dr. Fitch in his lecture
on Christianity last Wednesday evening.

There are three concepts of Christ, said
Dr. Fitch, the sacramentary Christ, who is
offered for the sins of the world, the theo-
logical Christ, a sinless and transcendent
figure, and the miraculous Christ, who
brought the dead to life and rose himself.
None of these are Christ, but arise’ with
the mystieal speculations of Plato through
Plotinus. The neo-Platonic influence has
persisted in a subtle and corrosive scepti-
cism. The sentimental Jesus is manifested
as‘a sort of “super Dresden-China figure,
too good to be damned.”

The teachings of JeSus are obscured: in |.

a mass of Christitin. tradition which: has
little to do with Christ himself, and only
remains: attached because of its surprising
vigor. It is ntither valueless nor inde-
fensible, but cannot be identified with the
original teaching. The efforts to cut away
thé tradition account for the restlessness
and decadence of our present-day religion.

Judaea believed that God would inter-
vene and make Israel one world leader in
a new kingdom, for which Jesus felt that
he must prepare his people. Most of. his
contemporaries. visualized the Messianic
kingdom in its material aspect, a “few had
the ethical and spiritual conception of it,
which the geniyvs of Christ lifted, refined
and purified. He made changes in the com-
mon notion, to which he had at first sub-

scribed, by not allowing bloodshed and vi-|

olence, and repudiating Messianic force,
which his contemporaries advocated for po-
litical and religious reform. The growth
of his genius is shown in the growth and
changing scope of the kingdom, it becomes

and internal. Sex, religion and natural
prejudice are all cut down; clarity, moral-
ity and good will are the only requireménts
of a kingdom based on human needs and
capacity. Christ felt keenly his divine mis-
sion, and his disillusionment wasp neces-
sarily deep though inevitable. H finally
saw that the kingdom was not coming; the
priests, scribes, Pharisees and a people
eager “for physical marvels were antago-
He feels that a final sacrifice
is needed to filt up the quota of sin, that
his death shall be that sacrifice, and_his
second coming, in which he apparently be-
lieved, the beginning of an era of faith,
love and justice. He shows an indifference
to the vital issues of the day, Roman rule
and subjection of women, and the same to
his family, hecause they were subordinate
to the preparation fer citizenship in the
new kingdom. He taught a new code nec-
essary for entrance and sanctioned by the
emergency—that of non-resistance to evils
that would b#so soon destroyed.

The value of his teachings We not in
their cause or end, but in their intrinsic
worth, they stand in their own merit, not
on interpretation of history or belief in
Messiah. His moral insight as a true son
of Judah, distinguished between his people’s

sins, the perversions of excellence which

they acknowledged, those of the exter-|

enalists, and those of the sensualists, who
did evil and calléd it good. To the first
he said that he did not expect perfection,
his answer to the second’ was a flaming
invective against- hypocrisy, and he abused
the third without sentimentality, he flung
‘himself . st sham_ respectability, and
taught that man may leave evil if he will,
_ because there is always an active co-opera-

tion between him and God, who demands

non-sacrifice. This is notably not .com-
patible with his own death. What man
ought to be and do, is. his conception’ of

DR.NEWTON SPEAKS OF POWER
OF METHOD IN RELIGION



The Strength of Spiritual Laws as

| Giving Repose is Brought Out



The strengiPot the’ law of spiritual
power was stressed by Dr. Joseph F. New-
ton, of the City Temple, London, in ise ae

last Sunday evening.
a

In recent years when, things have ‘gone
hard with the world’and dreams of peace
for mankind have been shattered, only the
men of science’ remained undiscouraged,
founding their faith in the knowledge of
the natural laws that surround. them.

According to Benjamin Kidd, in his Sci- |

ence of..Power. the Germans have —
the strength of law intelligently used,

their case a psychological niethod to fe
velop a wartime morale of unquestioning
obedience; and the world today would be
completely transformed if a parallel mgthod

were found and applied to it. The power
itself is in the human race.
Weakness of spiritual method makes

most of the misery of our time. There is
a groping toward this method in religions,
no matter how far-fetched and contradic-
tory. The purpose. of these religions may
seem centered in the individual, but they
are striving for the balance that will bring
spiritual repose from modern life.

All the while the secret of this repose is
close at hand, in obedience to certain laws ;
the law of faith, in which we rely for the
small things of life; of prayer, which ex-
presses the unfulfillable’ desires of our
hearts, and links them with the will of
God; the law _ of forgiveness, today the
most strongly needed of them all.
