‘EDITS DUBLIN. WEEKLY]



George ‘Russell, better known as AE,
and distinguished in the* various fields
of poetry, painting, drama and economy,
will deliver the Ann Elizabeth oct
Memorial lecture in English Literature
in Taylor Hall on Saturday, the/18th of
February. This versatile Iristman, who
has already lectured at Harvard, Vassar,
and. Princeton, will speak on “Some Per-
@onalities in the Irish Literary Move-
qment.” Of the man, and of his place in
literature, Mr. Ernest’/Boyd writes:

“The smallest psetidonym in Irish ‘lit-
erature stands for the most. manifold
and, most people will agree, the greatest
personality in Ireland today. AE, mys-
painter, and essayist, whose
diphthong signature was once the cher-
ished friend of-an esoteric few, is now
universally known as George W. Rus-
sell, the co-operative economist and
editor’ of The Irish Statesman. It is
difficult to find a recent parallel for such
a diversity of interests and activities, all
the faithful expression, . nevertheless,
/a consistent personality.”

of the United States; have issued a joint
statement urging that: a dormitory for
in*the
building program of the Cité Universi-|
taire, :

The Cite Universitaire, an interna-
tional student city now being built on a
seventy-acre tract at the far end of the
Latin Quarter, Paris, contemplates a
group of dormitories erected. upon the
American dormitory: plan .to house the
students from all over the world who
go to Paris to study.

_ Each dormitory is to be built on a site
donated by the University of Paris, out
of funds provided by the country whose
students will occupy it, and will be con-
ducted under the supervision of a Coun-

~ cil of Administration composed largely

of citizens of the country -concerned. A

_central building will provide auditorium,

library, restaurant and gymnasium facili-
ties.

Canada was. the first wit to erect. a
dormitory for its students. England fol-
Jéwed,. Seven French dormitories and a
Belgian dormitory ‘have’ been . built and
occupiéd. Japan has raised the money
for its buildmg. —

Conmimittees ii Spain, Holland, Sweden,

have completed arrangements for dormi-

DANCES IN COSTUME

Mme, Sikilianos
Grecian draperies, sandals, unbound red







in her blue-green

hair, was an unusual figure for the

Taylor Hall platform. Intense and obvi-
ously’ nervous* she. faced the crowded

rchapel>as if bewildered by the audience

and . the familiar surroundings. Her
friends advised her not to come back to

America, she began by: saying, as in her

twenty-five-year absence the country had
progressed by leaps and bounds so far
‘that it would not be interested in ‘her
impractical doings at Delphi. ° She her- |
self however, felt that an America, with|
its reproductions of Greek theaters -and
interest.in__archeological—-excavations,
was not so wholly ‘practical.

Mme. Sikilianos ‘then went on to tell
us something of the history of the Greek
drama which she is so interested in
reviving. The chorus existed long /be-
fore ‘the. drama in Greece. It ‘was a
chorus very unlike our modern idea: of
a chortis; vit sang and danced/ at the
same time with every gesture expressivé
of the word being sung... Thi® gave the
effect of a varying pantomime almost
like a moving frieze. In/the interim
of the dancing the leader of the chorus
recited a story of the actions of the gods
or heroes which the chorus: was express-
ing. The leader on the leff conversed
with leader on. the right, and a third
speaker was added only’ in the classic
period. Thus there were all the elements
of the drama just in the chorus. The
costumes’ were. very simple so it’ was
easy’ to change from-one character to
another. At ‘this period all the action
took place in the ring, and it was only
later that a stage was added and the
actors divide off from the chorus. At
all times the heart and chief. interest
of the Greek drama was the. chorus,

Mr. Cram's Idea to Combine | 7
Three Buildings Under
One Roof.

MANY HAVE



GIVEN



CS: seckilip contributed ee _ President
Park.). re Sais
Mr. Cram, the supervising architect of
the* ‘college, contributed the idea of

putting under one roof three buildings
which’ the college needed—the students’
building and” the auditorium—old and
well-worn aspirations—and the class
rooms and ‘recital room for the depart-
ment of Music, need. for’ which arose
with the creation of the department. He
alsg chose the site fory the combination
building, . first--for . its accessibility both
to the students and/for the public, and
second, and a clos¢ second, for the pic-
turcsqueness of its varying levels. His
also was the choice o architect. The
designs were /made r.Arthur I,
Meigs ‘of th¢ Philade rim of Mel-
lor, Meigs and Howe, and he was also
commissioned to make landscaping plans
for «the / slopes. immediately below the
building, the road which enters the cam-
pus_at’ the upper side andthe walls-which
comect it architecturally with Rocke-
feller. He -has also indicated’ the gen-
eral form of the design for all the iron





jwork of the interior which is being car-

ried out in detail -by Mr. Samuel Yellin,
of -Philadelphia, probably the greatest
iron worker in America. ‘The old estab-
lished Quaker firm of R. H. Ballinger
and..Company are the general contractors,
and their construction looks as solid as
the Pyramids.
Many Have Contributed

All the’ direction from-the college end

has come. through the Buildings and

Grounds Committee of the Board of
Directors,- headed by Mr. Arthur Hi.
Thomas, of Haverford, who from its

first spadeful of earth has seen the build-
ing through every difficulty and almost
moved the. stones into place himself by
sheer’ interest. A committee: of the
alumnae with Mrs. Adolphe Borie as
chairman have had general charge of the
furnishings for the many rooms.

And, obviously, back of all. and» mak-
ing all possible, are the givers of the
building fund, first of all Mr. Howard
Goodhart for whose wife the great hall
is a memorial, President Thomas, the
alumnae of the ¢ollege, the present
undergraduates, and the families, friends
and-neighbors-of- us all. Alumnae and
students have given as classes and as
individuals to*the general building fund;
to the decorations, to the furnishings in
every_ permutation . or combination of
generosity. :

Organ to Be Dedicated.

The formal turning over of the Com-
mon Room by the Class of 1897 to the
| undergraduates has taken place. The
‘lorgan, the gift-of Clara Vail Brooks,
1897, is to be dedicated next Tuesday.
The dedicatiott of the hall will probably
take place on Saturday, June 2, before
the undergraduates have gone and after
the alumnae have come. The guests. will
be those most closely connected’ with the
building. Next October the college will
invite its many outside friends and neigh-
bors for a. formal opening of the hall,
but in*June the ceremony will be for
those neatly concerned—those who have
wanted such a building most keenly in
the past and those who will use. it most
constantly in the future.

“What Goodhart Hall Means
to the Music Department”

© (Specially contributed by . Horace
Alwyne.) °

Having been asked to write my views
1 “What Goodhart Hall means to the
Music Department” and having sat down
to attempt to find out just what my views
-are, I comie to the Conclusion that this
cannot be done under such a title, using

the present. tense, without being inévi-
tably prejudiced by the unending proces-
sion of petty. annoyances and_ incon-
veniences attendant upon the premature
occupation of a new building. After. at-
tempting to lecture to the obbligato ofa
steam-shovel.on one side, stone-cutters
on the other; organ-builders above, tin-
smiths below and ‘the clatter of pianos
from several practice roonis, later to be
made sound-proof but at présent having
walls through which one ean hear the
slightest whispered coriversation; one’s
views are apt to be somewhat distorted.
So IT will-occupy myself by ‘saying “What
Goodhart Hall. will’ mean to the Music
Department.” Here -I find myself on
safe ground and in a very happy posi-
tion. In fact I could almost content
myself by statiig my reply in one word,
“EVERYTHING!”

In the first place. there has been a
progressive “raising. of the tone” of
music fromthe physical standpoint... On
October 5, 1921, Editorial in the
Philadelphia Public Ledger, commenting
on the opening of the new Music De-
partment on that date, stated that music
had now been promoted.from the cellar,
where it had hitherto resided and had
occupied the position “of being “like

Pass on the Trust and

Love of Life by Worship

.The Rev. Alexander 'MacColl;—of—the
Second Presbyterian Church of Philadel- }
phia, speaking in chapel last Sunday eve-
ning, defined worship as “the celebration
of liter...
If. people today, with their love of
life, their instinct for festivities and
fellowship, realized this truth, Dr: Mac-
Coll said, there would be no problem in
filling churcls, and chapels for pur-
poses ‘of worship. (Unfortunately the
almost empty hall: was silent proof that
the problem is at present a serious one.)
To be in love with life, the minister
continued, and to love God as the author
of life, is religion. The ancient Hebrews
expressed in the-psalms their feeling that
man should not be silent, when all nature
is continually praising the Lord;* and
Jesus, too, withdrew to the mountains
to talk to God of the beauty of life, and
tuo express to Him his gratitude for the
trust of life which he had received. The
Apostle Paul, for all his lye bubbled
over with the joey of living.
Express Thanks in ‘Pre yer.
Similarly, prayer is a proceso giving
thanks to God, telling him of the good-
ness of existence. Prayer has been vyari-
ously defined as “the loving exploration
of God’s will;” as. “the intercourse of
the family of God;” as “the art of mak-
ing a. friend of God.” But above all it

the former fails to be aesthetic, if it fails
to have shape, harmony, and inspira-
tion, it fails to be architecture.

Built Around Great Hall.

In this building, the principal element
is the Great Hall, which dominates the
scheme within and without.: Around’ and
against this the other elements are ar-
ranged; the foyer to the south, the stu-
dents’ wing to the north, the stage en-
trance to the east;-and to the, west, the
music wing, pushing against: the main

mass from below, and holding it from
slipping from its’ position. These lesser
architectural elements buttress the main ,
architectural element precisely as the

stone buttresses on the outside brace the

great flying arches which are within,

and these, in turn,/support the roof with ’
its. stone fleche which dominates all.

Although it is hoped that the ‘sun will
shine gloriously on the fourth and fifth
of May and that Goodhart Hall will not
have to be used forthe first time at the
“May ‘Day celebration, yet it seems
peculiarly fitting that it should be ready
for use if needed on May Day as it
was to raise funds forthe students’
building that Mfs. Charles McLean
.. Andréws of, the’class of 1893 organized
and produced Ahe first May Day- in 1900,
Even before then the alumnae had dis-
cussed the question of Ahe students’
building, or-as_it-was called in the very
early days of the college; the “entertain-
ment hall,” giving it up for the time
keing only when President Thoms:
pointed out the more immediate need of
a library—the library at that time being
rooms & and’ F in Faylor Hall—and a
new gymnasium, HOWwever, interest in
such a buildingspersisted and not only
the .May Day of 1990 but, each’ succeed-
“ing May Diay—1906, 1910 ahd 1914—gave
their small profits to the Students’ Build- | ;
ing Fund, so that by 1925, together with
otter moneys raised. fom the same pur-
pose, there was in the hands of the
treasurer of the college some $38,000.
Alumnae Raisé Money.

In February, 1925, as the immediate
need of the students’ building had been
made evident by the enforcement of the
fire laws of the State of Pennsylvania,
the Alumnae Association unanimously
decided to raise the money for the audi-
torium, a students’ wing azd the music
wing, a8 well as the endownient of the
music department, and sunder ‘the leader- |
ship of Mrs. P: ‘Louis ‘Slade, of the class
of 1896, the national chairman of \the
Two Million Dollar Endowment Cam-
paign in 1920, and a Director of Bryn

majority,/of the money coming .from
small pledges covering two years, and
many payable monthly. The classes ‘of
1925, 1926, 1927 and 1928 raised or
pledged $5000. In addition, 1929 and
1930 have pledged $11,750 of which
$5800 has been paid towards the $15,000
needed for the seats. Yesterday 1931
pledged the remaining $3250. With the
furnishings of the different rooms being
given by the alumnae through reunioning
gifts. The Music Wing and the Students’
Wing are already in use.
An Expression of Feeling.

Perhaps because such a large part of
the money for Goodhart Hall has been
given by the alumnae ‘and” undergrad-
uates through small contributions, _ the
hall seems to me to be, more than any
other building on the campus, the inti-
mate expression of the feeling of the

alumnaé and undergraduates for the col-

lege. As President Park said in thank-
ing Mrs. Cary ‘for -the gift at Com-
mencement in -1925!

delightful Music Room onthe second
floor -in the Music Wing -of Gondhant
Hall,

The larger size of this new room will
make possible the holding of recita!s or
\chamber-music evenings for which a
more intimate room than the large audi-
torium is suitable. Also, it is hoped that
the Informal Musical Evenings, which
will shortly be resumed, may attract a
larger number of the members of the
College than could comfortably find seat-
ing accommodation in Wyndham.

One of the most significant and note-
worthy additions: to the Department and
to the College in general which the build-
ing, Goodhart Hall has brought about

is the fulfillment of my long-cherished |

drea' that the College should some day

and the gift of the necessary money for

remodelling and additions to complete
its beauty and usefulness: by generous
friends and Alumnae of the College, we
shall, within a few days be in possession
of an instrument which. will add immeas-
urably fo the dignity of Music at Bryn
Mawr. Not only will it change the
entire atmosphere of Chapel, if President
Park’s plan to hold Chapel in the: Music
Room is: fulfilled, but it will be a source
of great usefulness in the Appreciation
Classes, and also for the Informal Music
gatherings.

Up to.the present. time it has been
necessary to take the entire Appreciation
Classes down. to the Rosemont Church
whenever it was desired to present illus-

trations of the great organ works of
| Bach or of the other Masters of. the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, or
to acquaint students with the possibili-
ties and construction of the organ as an
instrument. This can now be done in
the classroom itself. lso the addition
| of organ accompaniment ought to be a
stimulus to informal singing on Monday
Evenings.

Another great advantage which Good-
hart\ Halt presents to the Music Depart-
ment is that of consolidating all its
spheres of action: under one roof, for
the Lecture Room, Concert Hall, prac-
tise rooms and faculty studios -are all
now easily accesible from. any part of
the building. The practise rooms are
much lighter and airier than the old
ones in Pembroke basement and when

|made sound-proof should prove a bless-

ing to all who have hitherto suffered
from their too familiar proximity. The
disadvantage of having the studios of the
faculty at opposite ends of the Wynd-
ham grounds has, of course disappeared
and results in a great saving of time,

the Ely Studio and Wyndham, and _bet-
ter co-ordination in the work of. the De-
partment.

_ The advantages of hnating a fine con-
cert hall and theatre for the Glee Club
performances and for the Concert Series

Anyone who has experienced. the discom-
forts of performances in the Gymnasium,
where a complete view of the stage from

ber of other departments and organisa-

‘tions concerned and one may begin to

realise what Goodhart Hall is going to
mean to Bryn Mawr.

At last a long dreamed of hope has

in the music room in Goodhart Tuesday,
Febriiary 21st, at 8.15. Mr. Willoughby
is to play the organ, Mr. Olwyne will
play a group-of pianoforte pieces; there
will be’a group of songs by Mr. Kelso, a

be hard for us to grasp “the full signifi-
cance of the words “total responsibility”
in regard to Goodhart . Hall.

The Common Room comes to us abso-

lutely free from any encumbering rules, .

and it is for us to make it what we really
want it to be. I feel that the spirit that
should prevail is* that of the pre-emi

nently popular philosophy of “live and
let live’ to the point of not inter fering
with anyone else’s liberty. If one wants
to study concentratedly go to the
library. If one wants to be too noisily
gay, why not stay at home? The Com-
mon Room should strike the balance
between restraint. and license, and “the
prevailing .atmosphere should_ be ideally
one of welcome, and sincere enjoyment
for everyone alike in her own way?

Mr. Meigs on Goodhart ,

‘CONTINUED FROM. “PAGE r.
so we find that-the whole building, works
towards the support of its highest point.
Nothing is moré stirring in architecture

than its silent stresses and strains, and |.

wheri we walk along the. music walk
on the west side of the building we are
passing through them, and when we

enter, we are sitting under them.

The four Hying arches in the interior,
*the doubled flying arch in ‘its ,center,
and ‘the stone fleche, high above all,
_xonstitute the architectural heartbeats of
the whole.”

The above is quoted from ‘an article
published,in the Bryn Mawr Alumnae
Bulletin two years ago. At that time,
in the fear lest the articl®é might .never
be read, an architect friend was asked
to lunch and it was. refd to him, His
gemment was that perhaps this article | ‘
would prove to be the best thing. about
the whole -building!

Reality Compared With Hope,

It: was written before a sod of earth
had been turned, and it ‘s interesting now
to look back and* compare the: reality
with the.advance description. Since ten
‘many obstacles have . been encountered.
The great flying arches supporting the
roof ‘of the auditérium and the fleche

in the middle were harder to build than
to draw. They cost more human effort
and energy than had been expected either
by architect or builder after both had
meditated on the problem to the ttter-
most of their, respective abilities. To
any one who watched the construction,
a time must be remembéred when almost
the entire cubical area of-the auditorium
‘seemed filled with the scaffolding ‘neces-
sary’ to support these great arches while
the concrete was being pdured. In the
evenings, after the workmen had left,
‘blackbirds roosted and squabhled among
the timbers, ‘thinkirig, apparently,, that
they had discovered a new forest, and
human beings crawled up and down in-
side the forms, struggling with -recalci-

trant iron members that take the stresses
and strains of the finished product. High
up above, where they, had no right to
‘be, undergraduates appeared, with legs
dangling over the topmost points of the
unfinished arches. Possibly they were
unaware of it, but they were seen by the
foreman and reported to the architect.
So much for the arches abové ground.
Foundations Present Problem.
The foundations which | support the
arches weré almost harder still. The
first summer was accompanied by tor-
rential rains. The ground could scarcely
be called ground at all, as a large part
‘of the area on which, the building stands
had been used as a dump heap during
the construction of the earlier. building,
fifteen or twenty years ago, so that when
the trenches for the foundations -weré
dug bits of crockery, old: shoes, brick
bats and all the rest of it appeared, and
“as every trench went deeper into the
ground, before it went deep enough, the
sides would cave ‘in and fill up again.

These had to. be braced with heavy

timbers, and it was dangerous for men
-to work in them lest they be buried

alive. The rains descended and the
floods came, and the deeper went the
trenches the deeper became the water
that poured into them, and great pumps
and hoses had to take it out in the day-
time .only to, be filled up again the next
night.

Foremen Part of Scheme:

All’ organizations are similar—military,
politicalss’ economic and — constructional.
They consist of a series of Steps, We
descend from a field marshal to a private,
from a king to a serf, and, similarly,
from .college presidents and boards of
trustees down through architects and
contractors, ending with colored labor,
but Between the top and. the bottom
there.are foremen, who resemble what ;'
is erroneously known int the military as
‘top” sergeants, - “Nobody. knows or cares
‘much about foremen or “top” sergeants,
but they have their place in the scheme
of things. “Most of the people interested
in Bryn Mawr probably never heard the
name of John Scott. or that of George
Price. .The former is foreman in gen-
eral, and George. Price was in charge
of all the concrete arches. These men
are the ones who. crawl in and . out
through the narrow and difficult places
and stand up on the high places. where
the wind blows. “They are the men who
say to’ the colored labor, “Do this, and
do that,” and the men/who are responsi-
ble to see that Tom,~Dick or Harry
does, this, that or the other, as he is
told, and not the opposite. the instant
the boss’ back is turned. The rsponsibili-
ties these men bear are apt to go un-
recorded.,

Go Deep into the Earth.

In .conclusion, the deepest, foundations
extend to a depth of thirty-five feet be-
low the stage floor. Perhaps, ‘many years
hence, when this civilization has perished,
and Bryn Mawr-“is--asancient-zand
deserted as Greece is today—perhaps,
when: the site of Goodhart Hall is
covered with grass and wild flowers and
all is silent save the piping of a shepherd
where his nibbling flocks do stray—per-
haps then, some archeologist, armed
with shovel and field drawing board, may
come on the scene, dig himself down to
the deepest foundations of Goodhart
Hall, and wonder what in the world his

bowels of the earth. Perhaps from those
same foundations’ he may--reconstruct~ a
building most ingenious and most
astonishing,

“Every year there are more oppor-

many,” began: Dr. Prokosch in. is ad-
dress in Chapel on Wedfesday, January
18. “This year conditions are back to
their pre-war status, and in fact better

than pre-war ‘for foreign students.

“There are two chief groups “of uni-
-versities: the first group of which Berlin
and Munchen are the examples, offers

complete courses for foreign, especially
American, students;
“American teachers who give. ,the ‘rudi-
ments of the language. Their course lies
between July 12 and August 22. .

* “The second group is more interesting.
Heidelberg, Freiberg and Jena are sum-
wmer schools. for the student who Kas
some knowledge of Gerinan. It ‘is pos-
sible ‘to go to one of these universities
for three weéks,, as the course begins

for instance’ Vienna, for another period.

“Another way of learning German is
traveling in connection with a tour;
year “there are two rather unusual possi-
bilities in that line: Miss Karola Geigér |
-wants to conduct a tour to Germany. this
summer for study, and there is also a
tour of American teachers and students
of German. For this arrangements have
been made for meétings with all the Ger-
man leaders of thought. If your’ dates
happen to coincide with the tour’s at any
place, the conductors of the. tour will be
glad to arrange for you also to have
these’ advantages—without the necessity
of joining the tour itself.

The. Eve of Vulgarity’
~ We, in the midst of. the helter-skelter
of activity connected with the business4
ot procuring an education, may well stop
for ‘a_ moment to estimate the intrins’c

_which it will eventually produce.

~_In_an interesting article -by John Cour-
nos in the Yale Review, entitled “Will
Culture Survive?” we ‘ind this inter&t-
ing comment : a

“The steady effort to vulgarize and
barbarize life is by no means limited
tothe machine-makers and to the proph-
ets of ‘Big. Business. . The new
psychology does everything it can to de-
prive man of his pgide, of his nobility
of the dignity Of being a potential. god.
It_ wants to prove him a machine (a poor
smachine at that), a thing of wheels and
cogs, subject to ptrely mechanical ac-
tions and reactions. : This way
madness lies; that there is method in. it
doés not make it the less terrifying. And
so we are on the eve of vulgarity.”
. Mr. Courtios, to be-sure, expresses hjs
opinion rather. forcibly. And yet, those

sympatltize ‘with the new spirit of. “prog-
‘ress,” who see in the apfroach of the new
mechanical-scientific oa aie to the
life of culture and the golden heritage
of the past, can well understand his point
of view. We realize that we are trained
in an atmosphere of two eras, with past
learning as. our foundation and future
progress as our aspiration—in a strange
mixture of Romance and Realism. “Will
Culture Survive?” is a question we may
ask ourselves ‘seriously, before it -is too
late—for tomorrow we may find our-
selves in the. world: of ‘William Clissold.
