Revived Players Start
Season Successfully | :
THe first caine of the reorgan-
jzed Varsity Players was given in
Goodhart Auditorium on Thursday,
«October 17; . The play, “Riders ‘to, the }
Sea,” by John Synge, seemed a some- |:
what ambitious: choice for so inex-
periented an organization, but the
petent direction of Mary Drake.
Catherine Rieser, as Maurya, the
aged mother who has lost all of her
menfolk to the sea, played her part
~with cgmplete understanding and cre-
ated an atmosphere of mystery and
tragedy which kept the audience in a
state’ of tension during all her scenes.
Mary Coss and Betty Young, as the
two daughters, were éktremely decora-
tive in their peasant costumes. Miss
‘Coss did an especially fine piece of
work at the opening curtain in estab-
lishing the mood of the piece. The
scene in which Michael’s clothes were
identified gave Miss Young an oppor-
tunity to do a difficult bit of acting in
which she distinguished herself also.
Lucy Swift made*a very-wistful and
real young man of Bartley, holding up
the high standard of the performance
in her brief entry.
Perhaps the hardest task of the di-
rector was to introduce the keening
out being wholly passive: --The- effort
‘was not entirely successful. The en-
trance of the women was somewh®
out of keeping, as their moaning was
forced and unnatural at first.
they had knelt, however, the moaning
seemed to become more monotonous
‘the observer, Undoubtedly the weird
effeci of the. scene by the corpse was
artistic and striking. As the Players did
not attempt to speak in the Irish dia-
lect, their lack of realism cannot be
considered a fault of production, and
they are to be applauded for sustain-
ing throughout, the brooding and
fatalistic mood of Synge’s play.
Art Club Plans
On Thursday, October 17, the Bryn
Mawr Art Club gave a small informal:

iststhis matters no whit. They merely
beg that the final. judgment be re-
served until the exhibition of original
work. with which they intend to please
and surprise the.rest of*the college
sometime. next spring. . In the mean-
while they will faithfully endeavor to
follow the guidance of Mr. Henry Mc-
Cartergof the Philadelphia Academy of
Fine Arts, who is himself a- modern
painter, and can wish them, as he
‘said, nothing better than that they “be
their age.” This, he explained, meant
learning the fundamentals of drawing
through learning to see clearly, which
is the real basis of modern painting.

Miss Carey Talks
on Senate Rules
Individual Integrity Is at Heart
_of Collége’s Pur-
pose.
NO DISHONESTY
“It is the custom,” began Miss Carey
in Chapel on Tuesday, “not to say the
rule of. the college, .to read in eaclr
semester and at the beginning of ex-
amination periods the rules of the
senate about the integrity of written-
work. ‘This fall Miss. Park has. felt
that instead of reading the rules it].
“might be wise to-discuss~ briefly what
lies behind them. One hears them so
often that in their very familiarity one?
forgets both their meaning and their
importance.
“Every institution in the world,. I
suppose, has its rules and its own. ways
of enforcing them. Bryn Mawr has
fewer than most, because, as Miss Park
always tells the Freshman, Class, it is
founded on the Quaker ideal that the
individual should be at the:same: time
responsible and free. But among its
most cherished traditions is its’ high
standard in regard to integrity of work.
This, I suppose, is at the heart of our
purpose. as_a college: Without vision,
says the Prophet, the people “perish;
and without a clear-cut tfiderstanding
of adherence to this principle a college
becomes sounding brass and clanging
cymbal.
“The. Senate rules are very simple.
The source of them all can be put into
one sentence; that one must never put
forward as one’s own, work that is
someone’s- else. Thus, in laboratory or
in wrkiei~work; whenever ‘nraterial is
gathered from. outside, acknowledg-
ment must be made of the source of
information.
“As soon as: this statement is ex-
amined carefully, we realize that it
is different from the ordinary regula-
tions of a school: about cheating. An
important: principle is involved; the
fact that a college like Bryn Mawr will
tolerate no: shadow of dishonesty in
its work. In the pursuit of learning
we are all equal; what we wantvis un-
derstanding and knowledge. What are
these worth if they are not-our-own?
There can be:no secorid-hand approach
to wisdom. and when we deviate from
a straight forward personal attack on
the material which we must either ab-
sorb or present,-we vitiate the whole
point of our trying to get an educa-
tion. Our very presence in college be-
comes a hollow mockery.
“You are no longer schoolgirls who,
when hard pressed, try to see how
a book without being caught. No
longer can you be content to use text-
books or encyclopedias for your au-
thorities and take your opinions sec-
ond-hand from them. You are self-'

Fenwick Reports
Legal Meeting
Students of International Law will. be
interested to learn fc the meeting of the
Institut de. Droit ternational at Briar-
cliff Lodge on the Hudson from October
llth until October 18th, The Jnstitut is
composed ‘of the most distinguished in-
ternational lawyers in both hemispheres,
and among its members are a number of
judges of the World Court, as well as
Foreign Ministers and Professors in the
large European universities.
Meeting jointly with the Institut was
the Association of Teachers of Interna-
tional Law in the United States, repre-
senting all of our leading universities
and colleges. Bryn Mawr was repre-
sented: by the presence of Dr. ‘Charles
Fenwick, Professor of Political Science
and of International Law.
Dr. Fenwick reports that the gathering
of jurists was the most interesting meet-
ing he ~had ever ‘attended.. The out-
standing characteristic of both meetings
was the coriviction expressed on all sides
that intétnational law is passing from
the old order to the new, that rivalry be-
tween nations is giving way to co-opera-
tion, and that it is coming to be seen
that the individual interests of each state
can frequently be best furthered by pro-
moting the common. interests of the
nations at large. It is*greatly encourag-
ing to find the leaders of scientific |”
thought taking a stand which gives such
promise for the futtire peace and pros-
perity of Europe _ and of the world at
large. ~

Liberal Club to Stress-
International Politics
The I:iberal Club is once more to be’
revived, and to fill the place in college
which has so often been left empty.
The D. A. R. have recently shown the
only active interest in this "Bryn Mawr
organization andthey gave it a strong
boost to life when they placed it upon
their ill-famed ‘blacklist.’ Now, we
of the present Bryn Mawr generaticl
are to see just how radical we really
are, and to express ourselves in th®
discussion meetings of the Club. Any
undergraduate or graduate student may
belong, to the Club, and there is not
even. the obstacle of dues to be. over-
come. ‘One must simply give her name
to H. Seligman, 10-12 Pembroke East,
sometime during the current week, In
this way Miss Seligman, who is presi-
dent of the Club, will have some idea
of the number of people who will be
interested in the Club’s activities
throughout the year. She will be in
+-her-reom-every—day-this-week-between+}
130 and 2 o'clock. Freshmen and
Sephomores- are especially —urged—to
hand in their names among those in-
terested. There will be meetings every
two weeks, and there will probably be
some outside speakers in the course’ of
the year.
The Liberal Club,:as it now stands:
is,one forthe discussion of liberal ideas
in national and international politics.
This.-year,- however, it iss to be hoped
that the interest may be centred largely
upon international affairs, and that the
name—of—the—club—-may-—even beso
changed ‘as to-indicate this change of
emphasis. The reason for this- would
be the interest of the Carnegie Founda-
tion, which has promised Bryn Mawr
a library of books on subjects whereof
an international club might treat:, It
is felt that such a. change as the one
suggested above would.in no way limit
the discussion of liberal ideals in na--
tional politics. It would, on the other
hand, widen the scope. ot interest of
the Club. Anot
dent fact that’ most ofthe liberal politi-
cal ideas which. would be considered
are international in character and ap-
plication; therefore there should be no
difficulty about: making the change; it
would seem to be a matter of clarified
ambitions, more than anything else.
To those interested, there is the. pos-
sibility of the-award of a scholarship,
next spring, for the Geneva Summer
School of Mr. Zimmern. This school
is a project of the National Student
Federation, and the scholarship ¢is
awarded by the Carnegie Foundation.
The person chosen will most probably
be a member. of ‘the Liberal Club
group, since interest in international
affairs is one of the chief prerequisites
for the award.

Mystic Religion
Not to Be Feared
Dr. Bell Emphasizes Saints as
Inner Circle of The _-
Church.
‘SAINTS DIVINELY SANE
October 20, was led
by Dr. Bernard Iddings Bell, warden
of St. Stephen's College, Columbia
University. The text selected by Dr.
Bell was the Thirteenth Verse in the
Sixteenth: ‘Chapter .of. the Gospel_ac-
cording to—St..John:—‘Howbeit when
He,.the Spirit of truth is come, He
will guide you info all truth.”

“The quest for the meaning of one-
self in terms of all there is, cannot be
postponed during the years which one
gives to the various pursuits in life—
even to the culture of one’s mind.
Amusements pall as youth departs, and '
even one’s family is bound-to grow,up,
while the man of scholarship becomes
»suspicious that what he knows is ex-
tremel¥ little in comparison with what’
he cannot know. The latter half of
life ought. to be thé better half, but
that cannot be unless one has learned
than the world of the flesh, This pos-
sibility may be forseen when young if
tent of older minds. Only by so tak-
ing thought can we avoid the Ameri-
can animalistic and rationalistic para-
dise where we shall find later years in-
tolerable. The day when people were
satisfied with what the world offered of
material rewards is not so _ shining
now.. Even the day that centered it-
self upon the mind is very old-fash-
ioned. But, there is no means, to per-
suade everyone that all Americans are
enjoying themselves.
“To ascertain something of the mean-
ing of. things and ourselves within
is the real life. A-vast number
are ready for better things than ani-
malism, but many people are afraid
of religion. I have tried to find out
what are the reasons for this hesitant
attitude of mind, and I’ have the high-
est sympathy with the difficulties be-°
him them, for they were my. difficulties
formerly,
“The first difficulty comes, from the
faet that few understand what religion
at external appearances; its prestige
is more suited to, secular exercise; its
priests and prophets seem like other
people, men driven by routine, a little
hesitant about God and. apologetic
about religion, There was a time when
the ecclesiastical world was a social
necessity? today the secular founda-
tions are curtailed. and the church
stands stripped to the essentials—or we
think it does—the essential vermiform
appendix. The thing we must remem-
ber is that there still exists that quest
for life shown in the long succession
of saints; the-mysties- preserve the life
of the church; the inner circle of seek-
ing has been finding God. The church
is useful in spite of its unlovely. shell
because it is the pathway trod by those
who-have given their lives to the real
search of the heart of man. Religion
is not being or doing good; a religious
man tries to be good because it is a
source of joy beyond all lesser joys.
Religion is not a social phenomenon or
an~ethical-system; it-is tiving’and-con=
ceiving contact with the spirit beyond
A pulsing energy eternally
creating our whole universe and us
within it, such was the find of the
saints.
“The second difficulty is in believing
that it is possible to arrive at know-
ing, by spiritual intuitions; we are not
brought .up that way. Our difficulty is -
‘our defective’ theory of knowledge, a
theory that our only true contact with
things ourselves is through our five
sense;' as. Aristole said, ‘You can’t
thi nk about anything untess-you've first
laid hold with your senses.’ . It-is oc-
cidental and- scarcely more than acci-
dental; were it true, religion would be
sung between some of the above items.

SALUTE °
This week marks the fiftieth an-
is one of the most important people
It is hard to
- realize just why there should be so
"much talk of this gpe man, simply
because he managed to complete
works, in various directions, which
must have been going on for gen-
erations in the laboratories and
minds of many other scientists.
But, when we realize just how great
are the changes wrought by Edi-
son’s inventions, and when we real-
ize just how many of our most
commonplace Iuxuries are the prod-
uct of his hand and mind, then we
can understand why Ford has re-
erected Edison’s old laboratory in
his historical park.in Dearborn, and
why the Saturday Evening Post
could run a_ gineteen-page add
which was really a tribute to Edi-
son’s genius.
This man actually summarized,
in his own works, the change of
living conditions which ushered in
our present era of rapid, efficient,
mechanical existence. He had at
least a hand in the invention of the
stock ticker, the typewriter, the
‘telephone receiver, the phonograph,
the incandescent electric lamp, the
movie, the Alkaline storage battery,
and the talking moving picture.
Surely these achievements are
“worth remembering on a fiftieth an-
niversary.
FILLER
We find that a majority of the
readers of THE News tend to share
a reaction which has too often been
our own... That it is relatively un-
important makes little difference.
We wish to call attention to “News
from Other Colleges”: which some-
times, most impressively, assumes
* a major role in our make-up, and
‘ from the paper.
which, perhaps too often, may “at
other times be omitted completely
Obviously, this
material has always. been used as
“filler,” and it has been “put into
Tue News when more immediately
interesting articles have run out;
we fear that this policy will have
to be continued, for the size of thet
paper is exceedingly elastic. How-
ever, we do feel that the “News
from Other Colleges” is of great
interest to us as individuals, and to
the college as a group. Certainly
our public opinion is a good mirror
of our more or less abstract con-
ception of Bryn Mawr; surely it is
influenced by what. we know of
other colleges and universities, and
surely there is‘ no better way to
keep our minds open to new ideas
than to read the-news of. these
other colleges which is most vitally
interesting to. us.
THESE INSIDIOUS
ENDURANCE TESTS
Obviously, in this world of trial
and tribulation, .there must~ be a
limit to everything. There is a
limit to concrete, tangible things,
like the capacity for eating and
drinking; and there is a limit to
’ mere abstractions: and human ‘char-
acteristics, like frankness and stu-
_ pidity.
~ tially, there is a very distinct limit
But primarily and essen-
oy the extent to-which-our
may ,be subjected. _ Beyond that
point our souls ‘rebel, and our
2 — in derision of
a system which is superfluous, time-
wasting, and exceedingly boring.
The voting system of this noble
country of ours undoubtedly has its
disadvantages. But we do not find
it too laborious, once a “Yuet, to-go}
to the polls and designate our. vari-
ous choices for vacant offices. It is
quibbling. The evening edition
‘| does not come out a week later with
a sprawling headline informing us
at one-thirty Tuesday for the Presi-
dent of the United States,” and
then, one week later, come: forth
with another command to make a
choice for Vice-President. There
is no long drawn out process of in-
termittent voting which -extends
throughout the entire year and
taxes both our memories. and our
patience. A’s a nation we like effi-
ciency.
As a college, made up of.a norm-
ally intelligent group of young
ladies, we, too, clamour for effi-
ciency. . Being young, we are
blessed with a good deal of pa-
tience. But, alas; when ‘it comes to
the point when, every day of the
week, we are not permitted to walk
out of the dining-room without -hav-
ing a blue, aE: or yellow ballot
shoved ignominiously into our
placid countenances, We are just
mildly moved to complain.
Now, we are really very willing
to vote for anybody to be anything.
Indeed, voting would be the very
chance for us.to express ourselves
privately on some of the. subjects
which good manners forbid us to
harangue pubicly. But we like
novel ideas; and we lose interest
when one becomes such an every-
day occurrence. Why would it not
be a worthy idea to decide on vari-
ous nominees and then vote—vote
for everything and everybody in
one fell swoop? The interest will
be-greater, and more efficient people
will be elected.

Although the outlook for the season
is not promising, Bryn Mawr may at
least feel consoled to. know that Main
Line is far better than last year. Be-
cause of this initial defeat, we need
not feel devoid of hope that with
continued practice and more time to
develop an attacking line, Varsity may
yet achieve victories,

_ Wemay put on fines till doomsday, but
~~ fines will not keep the bold--and-un-
scrupulous spirit from doing what she
- wants to do. The Latin professor may-
- threaten hers class with failure if-they
-use trots; but this threat will never
prevent the student, who does not her-
self care for her own integrity, from
preparing her lesson every day with a
translation instead of with a dictionary.
Nothing ih the world can solve this
problem except the enlightened con-
science of the individual.
“Tf I were to try to convince one of
you who disagreed with me about this,
I should Have a difficult time. For
there are few arguments one could ad-
vance to prove that the preservation
of one’s own moral sensitiveness is
worth more than any saving of time,
or high grades, or hollow excitement
to be derived from breaking rules. The
temptations in an age like this are
very great. It is hard for people of

There is no answer to this, except to

criterion of your actions—the one thing
that distinguishes the rational man
from the beast.”
Virtuous Action Defined.
In conclusion, Miss Carey read a
selection from Walter -Lippman’s A
Preface to Morals:
“Virtuous action is conduct which re-
sponds to-situations that are more ex-
tensive, more complicated, and take
longer to reach their fulfillment, than
the situations to which we instinctively
respond.--An infant knows neither vice
nor,virtue because it can respond only |.
to what touches it immediately. A man
has virtue-in-so far-as-he-can-respond
to a larger situation.
“He has honor if he holds himself to
an ideal of condtict though it is incon-
venient, unprofitable, or dangerous to
do so. He has veracity if he says and
believes what he thinks is true though
. it would be easier to déceive others or
himself. He is just if he acknowledges
the interests of all. concerned in a
transaction and not merely his own
apparent interest .....He is magnani-
mous if, as Aristotle says, he cares
‘more for truth than for opinion,’
speaks and acts openly, will not live
at the will of another, except it be a
friend, does not recollect ‘injuries,
does not care that he should be praised
or that others should be blamed, does
INTERVIEW
» Dr. Bernard Iddings Bell,. at the
request of the CoLLEGE News, ‘has
expressed his views on the part re-
ligion- should” take in’-the’ college.
He believes that all. students, are
potential mystics, and that the’jol-
lege-should expose. its. stddents' te
religion.
Girl the emphasis should be put on
Girl, not on College.
“The place of thg college in edu-
cation,” Dr. Bell said, “is to train
the human-mind to think accurately.
It can give to people scientific fact
upon which to think, but that is not
all there is upon which you can
think; there remains religion. The
college ought not to promote re-
ligion, but it should not despise re-
ligion — whey anybody despises
religion he makes himself ridiculous
in the eyes of an urbane person.”
