Statistics Reveal Only One-



"Third of 1930 Come

MOSTLY BRITISH ener



yee of the class of 1930 were
made public by President Marion Ed-
wards Park on Monday, October 11.

The most interesting findings. were
that about one-fourth of the freshmen
come from New York State, about
one-sixth from. Pennsylvania, and only

one-third from the country west of |

the Atlantic seaboard. Eleven college
professors’ daughters are included in
the class, and the daughters of four-
teen alumnae.
are'Episcopalians, their average age is,
as usual, eighteen years and _ three
months, eighty-two per’ cent. of them
come from private schools, and _ sey-
enty per cent, of them have fathers of
British stock, while ninety per cent. of
them have both parents and grand-
parents native born.

The complete statistics are as fol-

lows:
Christians Must Be Leaders.

About one-fourth. of the freshman
class (thirty-three) come from New
York State, and of these all but four
come from New York City or the im-
mediate neighborhood. From up-
State New York. only’ four—Schenec-
tady, Fulton, Buffalo and, Niagara
Falls.

About one-sixth (twenty-one) of
them come from Pennsylvania, and of
these fourteen*’ come from Philadel-
phia and its neighborhood. Seven
come from other parts of Pennsyl-
vania—Sewickley, Reading, Harris-
burg, Lancaster and York.

Another sixth comes from Washing-
ton and Baltimore (together)—twelve
from , Washington, and seven from
Baltimore.

One-twelfth (eleven) come from
Massachusetts—seven from Boston, or

immediate neighborhood and the other |:

four from Wareham, Fall River, Fitch-
burg, and Springfield.
Home Towns.

Only a little less than one-third of
the class come from the rest of the
country: Six from New Jersey, but
three of these from Princeton; six
from Missouri, but of these five from
St. Louis; three from «Illinois, all from
Chicago; three from-Connecticut, from
Ohio, Virginia and West Virginia; one
or two from each of the following:
Kentucky, North Carolina, Oklahoma,
Arizona, California,
China, Colorado, Indiana, Japan, Min-

SOCIAL SERVICE USEFUL

Dr. Kingsbury Outlines History of

The Social Service tea held in Den-
bigh on Monday, October 4, was the

Kingsbury spoke to a gratifyingly
large audience, telling them how social
service. work might be made valuable
‘to all concerned. She gave a resume of
the opportunities offered, and told
briefly the history of the Bryn Mawr
Community Center.

“Social service work done here at}
college is useful to three kinds of peo-
ple.” First to those who intend to go
into that field when they leave, be-
cause they get practical experience,
and have a chance to learn by > the
“laboratory method.” It will also be
useful to those who plan to take part
in the civic life of their communities.

PHILOSOPHICAL CONGRESS

Dr. G. De Laguna Says in Chapel
That World Is Turning to
Philosophy.



Dr. Grace De Laguna spoke in
chapel on Friday morning, October 8,
about the Congress of — Philosophy
which she attended this summer. She
pointed out its importance and its por-
tent in the world of thought.

“Two important things took place
this summer, one was this Congress
and the other was the fact that a book
on Philosophy has for: the first time
become a ‘best seller’.” Both of these
demonstrate a new interest in things
of the mind. In science there has been
a popular rqcognition, but this is not
true of Art. America has been rather
a Philistine, a land of jazz and radio
and film. But lately this has been
changing, people at large are turning
to Art, and they are also taking an
interest in “that last flower of civilized
thought—philosophy.”

Ovér. six hundred members attended
the conference, many of them young
students, a prdmising group. © There
were sixteen foreign countries repre-
sented, and a special effort was made
to make it possible for them to attend.

Although there was much that was
confusing at the conference, there
were signs that something important
was going on. Science has for sogge
time been going on its own way, but
now it has reached the point where
it has to take stock of its fundamental
aspects. When the scientist begins to
transform his way of looking at
nature, he becomes to some extent a
philosopher. Alsd in Philosophy the
old barriers of thought are down;
philosophy is turning its face to
sciences:

At all great periods of history, the
greatest men have been both phil-
osophers and scientists, not merely one

SELF-EDUCATION
BASIS OF SCHOOL

Undergraduates Give Their
Views of Summer

2 ; Methods.
NEW RULES ANNUALLY













(Specially contributed by i. Jones,
'27, and N. Bowman, "a7. )

Do you remember “Eng. Comp. IT,”
for which we read, among other things
Cardinal Newman’s | “Tdea of a Uni-

versity?” We. were supposed fo de-

theories of our own about

education while pondering over Car-

dinal Newman’s, His main point
seemed to be that “self-education”
was the best method. Bring a group
of young people together, leave them
alone, and they will educate each other.
“That youthful community will fur-
nish—principles-of thought and action;
it will give birth to a living teaching
which in course of time will take the
shape of a self- -perpetuating tradition
which haunts the home where it has
been born, and imbues and forms,
more or less, and one by one, every in-
dividual who is successively brought |
under its shadow.”

Cardinal Newman, I am sure, would
have thoroughly approved of the Bryn
Mawr Summer School. Here the
principle of “self-education” was in full
swing. Groups with totally different
experiences would come together and
learn to understand and generally tol-
erate one another’s point of view. .We
of the “winter school” experience
something of this too, but after all our
backgrounds are very much alike,
while those’of the Summer School
group were entirely different. Of
magy nationalities, of many different
trates, some of which were highly or-

velop

and from every corner of the country,
they began pouring in on one hot June
day and immediately began the process
of gettfig acquainted with the place
and with each other. It seemed amaz-

Tutors.
The first meeting of the Maids’ Club
was held in the Maids’ Clubroom in
the basement of Taylor Hall on Tues-
day evening, the fifth of October. The
purpose of this meeting was to ex-
plain to the maids what classes they
can take, and, in general, how the com-
mittee works. The first speaker was
Miss Faulkner, who told them what
she hoped they would get from the
classes, stressing particularly the Eng-
lish, and the Sewing Classes.
M. Coss, ’28, spoke next, inviting
the maids to come to the Sunday
school which meets every Sunday
afternoon. The gym classes were ex-
plained by J. Stetson, ’28, who is to
have charge of them this ygar. Be-
sides the regular gym there will be
folk dancing and games.

RELIGION’S VALUE
SEEN AS A TASK

Radiance Not Lost. if “Man —
' — Realizes Interest in
‘Struggle







{IS SUBJECT IN CHAPEL



“When we see religion as a task for.
our strength it ‘becomes interesting,”
said Dr. Crosby Bell speaking in
Chapel on October the ,tenth. He
stressed the fact that religion is an
adventure, and a dangerous one, rather
than a “refuge.” If it has lost ifs
radiance it is because it has been
preached wrongly, ‘or listened. to
wrongly, not through any fault of the
church itself.

“The most fundamental question
about religion is: What is Christianity
all about anyhow? Why did Jesus
gome into the world?” The answer in
Jésus’ own words is “I’am‘come that
they may have life, and have it ‘abun-
dantly.” Jesus is a “life-giver;” He
came to arouse intellectual life, so
that men would feel afresh the prob-
lems of the world; He came to stimu-
late the will, making men live “harder’”
He came to quicken moral life, turn-
ing men into “moral explorers.” He
wanted to “pour in the fiery liquid of
His own ideals.”

At bottom we all want to live as
deeply, as richly, and as interestingly
as possible. We admire men who
seem alive, while we have a proper
contempt for anyone considered “a
dead one.” The true Disciples of
Christ are the men who’ have come
alive. This is completely the reverse
of the idea often in the minds of peo-
ple that religion is a sort of “soothing
syrup,” something to turn to when you
are tired, or old.

A story appeared recently about a
young minister who found religion so
dull that he gave up and went in for
wholesale ‘debauchery; this was_in-
tended as a criticism of a religion
which “drives its own ministers to
drink.” The same author has pub-
lished a book entitled The Lost Radi-
ance of Religion. Laying the blame on
the church has long been a favorite
indoor sport, because it hurts nobody’s
feelings. The truth is that religion has
not lost its radiance, but that people
have lgst their eyes for this radiance;
you cannot see a sunset if your. eyes
are on the ground.

Faulty Presentation.

The cause for this may also be found
in the way in which religion is pre-
sented by ministers, It is so often
presented as a shelter from the battle-
field of life, an ark. But religion has
a message for the man who is healthy
as well as for the man who has been
hurt. “It is not the ambulance corps
trailing behind, but the army itself.”

All through history religion has
been one of the great stimuli of life,

Tenlarging men’s vision, making them

think cosmically. It has turned men
from “spiritual stay-at-homes” to trav-
elers. The religious man has always
known ‘himself as a seeker after. some
Holy Grail, whose path ends only at

ST. FRANCIS OF -ASSISI

- Seven hundred years| ago, m a
small Italaan hill town, was born one
of the greatest figures thg world:has
ever known, Giovanni /Bernadone,
St. Francis.» Behind Aim stretch
the Middle Ages, a tim€ as Chester-
ton has said, of gradual purification
and simplification after the luxury
and degradation which accompanied
the decline of ancient civilization.
Life was steep, bare, joyless, beset
with mysterious terrors-; religion of-
fered no surety of happiness or
beauty.

St. Francis comes at the end of
this epoch, and heralds the modern
world. Superstition he had, in com-
mon with all men, but he had also
a simplicity and a modernity which
are equalled alone by those of Christ.
God to him was not a far-off men-
ace, but a living spirit, so close that
a man, if his.eyes were divinely
opened, could feel His presence, and
even speak to Him; no abstraction,
but a Being who loved mankind, and
should be loved in return.

Influenced as he was by the Pro-
vencal troubadours whom he fol-
lowed in his early youth, he had
their sense of beauty and their pas-
sionate need of loving. He devoted
his life to the celebration and serv-
ice of a lady. He was, he himself
_declared, a jongleur of God.

Seeing all the world as a creation
of God, he found no necessary evil
in it, and to the men of his day he
pointed out the beauty and spirit-
ual ‘significance of material things.
He saw God everywhere, in the sun,
in the stars, in the birds, and, most
of all, in mankind. :

Going up and down Italy, he in-
stilled in men’s minds the idea that
God was to be served and obeyed,
not through fear, but through love,
because the only true happiness lies
in loving God. Austerity, poverty,
charity, are all ways to happiness,
because through them man can win
to God, and feel the divine sweet-

“ness in-his heart. Everywhere. St.
Francis won recruits to his follow-
ers, and his disciples in turn spread
the doctrine, till all over Italy men

to awake from bleak despair
and love God and beauty, and hope
became a force for the first time in
hundreds of years.

No king or general ever won so
great a victory as did Francis; no
revolutionary leader ever effected so

eat a change in men’s minds. With
he teaching the Renaissance is fore-
shadowed, and, still more, many an
ideal yet unrealized—freedom of the
spirit from doubt and fear; ey
and fraternity among men, self-

SCIENCE AND MATHE-

_~ . MATICS — %:
In view of the fact that perhaps
the majority of Bryn Mawr. stud-
ents are not preparing for-a particu-
lar career, buf tend to. grow up and
get married, and pursue the va-
|poury phantom. of general culture,
science seems to need a defender.

From the standpoint, apparently,
of most people, scientific and mathe-
matical courses, except,as a grudg-
ing “required,” have no place in a
cultural education. But they: really
can be of real value in such an edu-
cation, aside from the interest of tlie
subjects themselves, as .sharpeners
and exercisers of the intellect.





sceptical observer as decayed knowl-
edge; and indeed the jéyous seeker
for a general education, who has
gathered the rarest flowers of many
literatures, sat through a course in
history of art, and learned the rudi-
ments of three languages is all too
likely to grow old gracefully per-
haps, but ineffectually.

Although culture in the finest
sense, is a wonderful and valuable
thing, in our efforts to get it quick-
ly we all too often ‘stuff our minds
with a great deal of material, with-
out ever giving them any excerise
on original problems, so that we
grow intellectually corpulent and
slothful. Such an education con-
sists all in taking in with nothing
coming out. Would it not be better
to keep our facilities in training by
a certain amount of writing and
scientific courses, and to acquire the
culture gradually without danger of
forgetting all that we learn? If we
have kept our intellects keen enough,
we can make up later for lost time
by reading at home. *

CLEAN-UP CAMPAIGN
In your autumnal rambles, have
|you happened to walk down Roberts
road to where it crosses Gulph road?
If you have, you must have noticed



just behind the power house. The
college must have been using this
as a dump heap for the last thirty
years, so high are the piles of ashes
and old cardboard. Our attention
was called to this deplorable condi-
tion by someone who is not connect-
ed with the college, but who is in-
terested and would like to see it im-
proved. The rest of the campus is
kept so beautifully, that it seems a
shame that the “back yard” should
offer such a sad contrast. Perhaps
after the new boilers are installed,
the power house will awake to its
full possibilities and insist upon a
more pleasant environment.



FRENCH CLUB ELECTION
Last Thursday .a meeting of the
French Club was held in room 32
Pembroke West to elect a Vice-Presi-

was elected.

Plans for the coming year were also
discussed. It was decided that the en-
tertainments, such as teas, discussions,
etc., given by the French Club should
be open exclusively to Club members.
It. was proposed that a tea be given
for new members in the near future.

The. difficulties. arose. when it came to

more ‘of: the escond class than of the
first. The following are some of the

The prize winners and the prizes (they
really were wrapped in tissue paper and
tied in yellow—can you believe it) are as
follows : S '

First prize, for the wMning title, “The
Pillar of Salt,” to be signed “Lot’s
Wife,” submitted by G. Chapter, 19, is
an assortment of musical instruments.
There are two beautifully embossed har-
monicas, we mean harmonicae, one of
which has five notes, the other, 24, and‘a

or whatever those odd-shaped black
things with” holes in them are, and a’
“Flex-a-tone.” We feel sorry for the

Second prize, we finally decided,
should go to the person who submitted
“Collegiana,” but it was sent in anony-
mously. The prize is a year’s subscrip-
tion to the Christian Science Monitor, but
we don’t know where to have it sent.
Will the person who is responsible for
“Collegiana” please communicate with
us at once. The title has a high-brow
sound so we are sure the person_will ab-
preciate our award.

“Third prize, a sample Colgate’s week-
end kit, complete with tooth paste, soap,
shaving cream and talcum powder (we
got it free, but dori’t tell anyone!) goes
to M. Coss, ’28, who suggested “The
Bryn. Mawron,” although it goes against
our better judgment to reward anyone
for making such a frightful pun.

This is a very pastoral piece, even to
the signature. Perhaps we should have
saved it until spring, but we will prob-
ably get tore in that productive sea-

Then there is another thing concern-

It is a thing. about which we hesitate
to speak, and yet we feel it our duty.

that so many of them are 100 per cent

Athletics Popular.
Athletics at Summer School were
not compulsory, but they, evoked the
greatest enthusiasm. _ Swimming, ten-
nis and folk dancing classes were well
attended, but the acknowledged favo-

rite was baseball, Perhaps it’s true
that no one feels quite so much good
will towards men as the victors of a
hard-fought team game. At any rate,
the faculty team, trailing from_ their
ignominious and overwhelming defeat
on the Fourth of Juiy, received tl¢e
most considerate treatment from the
victors. And when, that night at sup-
per, the. faculty was cheered individ-
ually and collectively, they felt that
they could say with Satan, “What
though the field be lost? Afl is not
lost!”

Important -as was the effect of team
game psychology, the benefits of in-
dividual athletics is worth mentioning.

One girl, who had been in terror of
the water since childhood, because she
used to be ducked for punishment,
learned to swim inside of four weeks,
That surely was more than a physical
experience.
The Monday morning music class,
giving its impressions of fragments
from Bach or Beethoven; the#ather-
ings after supper, for talk or singing;
the Sunday evening cloister meetings,
wien a play or some poetry was read
aloud, just before it grew dark—these
and a huridred ‘other contacts made up
the life of the whole. Some girls who
had had no interest’ in industry before
began to ‘realize the problems of the
industrial world; some realized for the
first’ time that professional salaries
might be less than their own, and
everyone, through classes, books and,
above all, the associations of the
school, went through a mental shaking
up and rearrangement of ideas. Per-
haps there is no tradition of Bryn
Mawr which we would rather have
“self-perpetuating” than that of Sum-
mer School—“to imbue and form every
individual who is successively brdught

our share toward making it as good
as possible. 2
The Bryn Mawr Community Center
was started by some energetic students
of the college. It began in a very
small way in the back room of the old
school building, but it soon outgrew
its quarters. As soon as the commu-
nity realized its value and its impor-
tance, they took it over,.and now it is
a well-run organization, in which the
college girls have their part. Its latest
triumph is the erection of a new
library, a handsome stone building next
to the Center.

The fields which the committee will
cover this year are much the same-as
they have been in the past: Blind
School, library work, Americanization
classes, clubs, kindergarten, and per-
haps Hospital work if’it is wanted.
“There are, three essentials to be
considered in work of this kind, It
must be of value to someone; a person
is not to be blamed for getting dis-
couraged if she feels that she is neither
getting nor giving. The right person
must be given the fight job, so that
she will be interested in it. And there
should be expert supervision both from
within and without. This year besides
the general supervision that the work-
ers have at the centers, there will be
faculty members ready to assist. and
advise.” These will include Dr. Kings-

action. The lives of missionaries have
prove@ this, they have been the ex-
plorers of the earth.

Job of Religious’ Man.

The religious man has the most diffi-
cult job in the world—to bring the
| kingdom of God on the world, to get
the spirit of Jesus into life. On*the
success of this, all our other ideals, our

depend, No other agency can take

the place of religion in this.: Science

cannot do it for science cares orily for
knowledge and knows nothing of good
and evil; it creates both the bullet and
the antiseptic which cures the wound,
it builds the tower, and the gun to de-
Stroy it. Economics might feed us,
but more bread may only give more
energy for deviltry. Electric lights do
not bring the light of knowledge.
Bathtubs in every house do not-mean
‘cleanliness—the Roman Empire left its
bathtubs and its sins all over Europe.
i Strongest Things.

Religion goes deeper. There is an
old legen about the. gods trying to
bind Loki (the evil spirit), They tried
every form of rope or chain, but were
not successful until they tried a rope
of sand. This story shows ‘that “the





things you cannot see.”

The more a church tries to put the
spirit of Jesus into life, the more it
will command the enthusiasm and the
loyalty of men. There have been times
when Christians have been fearful,
then people have lost interest, because
they cannot get at the real thing. But
at other times they have been leaders;
then people have been ready to live
and die for religion. To capture the
modern world we need that spirit.
“A steersman cannot guide a ship
that is standing still; he can do nothing
unless it is moving. In the same way,
Jesus will guide and give life to a
people and a church, if they are mov-
ing.”

ROLE OF PHILOSOPHY

Cd



Radhakrishnan From University of
‘Calcutta - Speaks.
_ “The ‘business of philosophy in the
future,” said S. Radhakrishnan, Cal-
cuttan professor of philosophy, .ad-
dressing an «unusually « large audience
in Taylor Halt on Tuesday eveninj
“will be to develop a working theory
of the. universe which will harmonize
our increasing knowledge of science
with the central spiritual ideal of the
world.”

The growth of science 1s the deter-
mining factor in the present state
civilization. It’ has destroyed our con-
Geptions” of. religion, of -domesgic.ife,
of economics, of politics. In the first
place, by. demonstrating that the di-
vine revelations of our prophets are
but the externali¥ation of their. own
dreams and experiences, science has
undermined our religious faith. Many
of us become sceptics, doubting every-.
thing and therefore denying: the im-
portance of anything; others, reso-
lutely ignoring the conclusions of
science and education, cling obsti-
nately to the old ideas; still others,
while unable to believe. in religious
doctrine, adopt religion as an attitude
which has proved valuable to the
_ progress of mankind; the most ex-
trem, denying religion and the old
ethical standards altogether, openly
advocate etheism and anarchism.

The dissolution of old ideas has also
- disrupted domestic life. Children defy
parental authority, “and wives, in re-
volt against the double standard, jus-

No Smoking.

rives at in his: book, “The Student Who
Smokes,” based on a statistical study of
the problem. “These general conclusions
are drawn from his study:

“The smoker smokes because it is a
social habit. “He has low scholarship be-
cause he is sociable. Scliolarship de-
mands the exercise of attention which
cuts off the individual from his fellows
This solitude of mind is incompatible
with the gregarious instinct.

far from perfect, showing a deplorable
distance between theory and practice,
in democratic America as well as in
Fascist Italy and Socialist Russia. A
similar incompatibility exists in inter-
_national relations, statesmen continu-
ally urging peace, yet never willing to
pay the price. It is obvious that we
must develop a workable technique to
transform our lofty ideals into actu-
ality.
Since, then, it is impossible for us
to revert to our old views on all these
problems, it is a challenge to phi-
lasophy to work out a new scheme of
life. In the opinion of Mr. Radhak-

this, since science shows that the
