Dr. Bridges Pints Out the
Fallacies in Book :on
Behaviorism.

LARYNX REPLACES MIND

“Behaviorism is a tissue of self-con-,
tradicting dogmas,” said Dr. Horace. J.
Bridges, who, under the auspices of the
Bryn Mawr League, gave.a very inter-
esting lecture in .Goodhart Hall, Friday





evening, December 7, on the subject, Be- |

haviorism and Personality. :
Two years ‘ago Dr. Bridges asked two”

so many bizarre theories have developed
in the field of psychology and -he was
answered, by both that it was because the
public is not interested in genuine
science: it must have something spec-
tacular.. For this reason, scientists have
found it necessary té identify themselves
with ssome, extreme point of view. and
have become ‘mere advocates of atheory

Introspection Is Out of Style
There was a time when introspection
was considered the only psychological
ideas and

built up their theories. A little later in-
trospection was declared impossible; and
now it is considered only one of several
methods. At any rate, it is-a difficult
method,-for it is almost impossible for
a thing to observe and be observed at the
same time.

In the last twenty-five years three
kinds - of psychology have developed
fairly rapidly: social psychology¥ psycho-
analysis; and behaviorism, which has be-
come prominent as a theory through its
pioneer, Dr. James B. Watson.

Since it is-the business of science to be

bate the .evening before Thanksgiving
vacation. The subject was a rather diffi-
cult one, namely: Resolved, that the emo-
tions have done more for the world than
the intellect. Miss Stix, the president of
the club, spoke first, for the affirmative,
and ina very orderlyfashion traced-the
importance and the power. of the émo-
tions in history. Miss Constance Hand

emotion which is the motive power be-
hind all intellect. Miss Gellhorn then
wandered a bit from the point in. the
beginning, but came down to the fact
that allathe really great things in the
world have been the result of intellectual
work.

Miss Fain took the rebuttal for the
affirmative and again stated that without
emotion the intellect would achieve noth-
ing. Miss Gellhorn’s’ rebuttal amused
the audience with its description of a
world without reason, and Miss Merrill
then declared the debate at an end and
put the decision up to the judges, Miss
King, Dr. Fenwick, and: Dr. Hirt. After

bate to the affirmative, and, in explaining
this, Miss King poimted out that Miss
Fain’s speech had been the best because
she. had stated her points more clearly.
It was suggested that the next debaters
think about this and also try to’ do with
fewer notes. We are .very~ indebted to
the judges both for the time they gave
‘us and for the criticism.

The debate was very enlightening
(though not always accurately) and ex-
tremely enjoyable. The next one will
take place on Tuesday, December 18, and
be on a less ponderous and inconclusive
subject, namely, whether or not the world

Cross Describes Friend-
ship Needed in College
‘Rosamund Cross, ’29, led the Sunday
evening meéting of the Bryn Mayr
League in Goodhart Hall on December 9.

“In college, it seems to me,” began Miss
Cross, “there are two main things that
absorb our attention: studies and friends.
And it is the latter, perhaps, which will
mean more to us after we leave than the
facts we have stored in our minds. Al-
most nowhere else do you have theop-
portunity of knowing. girls as intimately
as you'do here, for you live, play and
work with them daily, and. from—theim-
you choose your dtiends.

Gives. Three “Types of Friendship

“There seem to be three general classes
of friendships in college. The first, and
most exclusive, is that of two people who
are so wrapped up in each other that they
do not feel the need of consorting with
other people. They are absorbed by their
own affairs, study together, do not mix’
with, others, and though they are very
glad. to have others come to see them,
they never make any .effort to become
friends with them. They feel perféctly
happy. and self-sufficient in their own
company. :

“The second class is that of a small
group of seven or eight girls who are
very intimate with each other, always do
things. together, mix more. with outsiders
than the first, but never really admit them
to their circle or have any desire to do so.’
They all generally have interests in. com-
mon, ‘in college or out, which take most
of their time and attention,

“The third. class, who are perhaps the
least numerous, are the girls who, while
they have intimate friends, are not identi-
fied with any particular group. They
know many different types of people and
enjoy them; they ae interested in know-
ing people just for the sake of knowing
them:-and ‘having fun-with them. TI don’t
mean the kind of-girl who takes up one
person after another, sees her. a great
dealt fora little while, and therr ‘drops’

interested. in them. for.their own. sakes.

thing which, I think,-is sadly lacking
Nearly alf of us be-
long to either the first or second class
for one of two reasons: either we are
too.shy and ‘lack self-confidence, or else
we have a feeling of. self-sufficiency, per-
haps unexpressed but present, and be-
cause of ‘laziness. It really is merely
inertia tat keeps a small group of people
together and tyakes them satisfied with
themselves, ‘never caring enough to ask
anyone else to join them. It takes a
little effort to ask anyone outside your
hall to do things with you and our native
laziness makes us feel in our innermost
hearts that after all it isn’t worth while,
as we're getting along very well with our
own group of friends.

“Yet haven’t you ever sat in the lib.
and looked around at people near you
and wondered what’ they were like? You
may think of their friends and wonder at
what seems to you a strange combina-
tion of people, and again that intriguing
thought of ‘what are they like?’ appears.
Perhaps you are missing an opportunity

by not knowing them. . Friendliness will,

I think, reward anyone who tries to prac-
tice it. I do not mean a ‘Pollyanna-ish’
sort of interest, for though in a few cases
it may be genuine, it always strikes one
as being -v artificial; but I. mean a
genuine interest in the people around you

and in the things that they are doing, and

beforehand, and laughed scornfully at his
sleight-of-hand. The clown profession is
net what it once was.

The clown, however, was, a mere in-
troductory note to Pamahasika’s famous
pets. ‘The curtain rose at last on Prin-
cess, the educated pony: a grey and white

Next came the :canine schoolroom,
where seven delightful: dogs did wonder-

enjoyment, The hit of this scene was the
Murphy: family, Mr, and Mrs. and little
baby Murphy.; the Patter came in a baby

New York String dieeiciet
Comes in Goodhart Series

The third event of the Goodhart Hall
series is scheduled for. Wednesday eve-
ning, December -12, at 8.15, The New
York String quartet, assisted by Mr. Al-
wyne at the piano, will play..

The history of the quartet is a remark-
able one. Before its first appearance its
members “enjoyed the privilegé of three
years of constant association devoted to
daily rehearsals, which gave them an op-
portunity not only: to perfect their. en-
semble, but also—which- is—more im-
portant—to. devélop a certain distinct
character of individuality as a body.”

The members of the quartet are:
Ottakar Cadek, first violin; Jaroslav Sis-
kovsky, second violin; Ludvik Schwab,
viola, and Bedrich Vaska, cello.

The program will be as follows:

I, Schubert—Quartet in A Minor, Op.

Are You Adequate or Do
You-Shrink From Life?

On Wednesday evening Dr. Arthur H?

Ruggles spoke on Personality Difficulties,







Presenting Mental “Health Problems in
College. According to Dr. Ruggles, who
is superintendent of the Butler Hospital
in Providence, R. I., there are two types
of personalities ; adequate and. inadequate.
The majority of people in college—where
the groups are highly selective—have ade-
They

antness without undue emotional stress:

quate personalities. meet unpleas-

and strain; they face their failures
squarely and think them out coolly; they
make friends and hold them; they have
the -abitity— to sort out-important--points
from ‘unimportant ones; in short, they are
so in harmony with their situation that’
only a major problem could disturb them.

Quite in contrast to these highly, effi-
cient individuals Are those persons which
have an inadequate personality, First of
all there are those who have suffered
from some great emotional experience
and who react to this in-a manner utterly
inconsistent with their characters, Then
there are people who lack balance; who
are always either up or down, hitting on
all six or in the slough of despondency.
Thirdly, there are people. whose .emo-
tions so far dominate over their: intellect
that they lose all proper sense of propor-
tion. And quite common are those-who
have an exaggerated feeling of inferi-

ority, who—either -withdrawinto~ theth- |"

selves or_attack.others. to. cover up~ their
ows-feeling-of-deficiency. A most di fh-

cult problem is presented by those who,

like the shell-shocked soldiers during the
world war, resort to “escape mechanisms,”
an unconscious form of shirking. And
then, lastly, there are those who are ever
dependent upon” someone, in a hopeless
dependence,. bred by the dominance of
parents who have never aHowed their
children to decide for themselves.

All. these cases of mental maladjust-
ment are ripe problems for the mental
hygieneists who nowadays are doing ac-
tive work in co-operation. with the. de-
partments .of Health in our larger col-
leges, such as West Point, Yale, Dart-
mouth, Smith, Vassar, Michigan ‘and
Minnesota. Through personal contact
with students, trained psychiatrists set
about: to discover kinks in personalities
and if any are found, prescribe, a_remedy
for them. The minds of individuals are
put in tune with their bodies. Thus they
are emotionally stabilized and rendered
more efficient.

MR.’ ‘STOKOWSKI SPEAKS

At lcuale the formal opening of Good-
hart Hall, Tuesday evening, December 4
with the Philadelphia Orchestra, innumer-
able guests, and the whole college in the
background, we had, as Miss Park said,
‘the time, the place, and the loved ones
all together.” Actually, as those of us
who. tried to get tickets for our clamor-
ing friends discovered, the guests were
only too numerable. “But, from ‘the
balcony, the audierite which listened to
Miss’ Park, the orchestra, the Glee Club
and Mr. Stokowski with rising en-
thusiasm seemed vast and elegant, for
once, excellently. suited to the auditorium,

Miss Park Gives Welcome
‘Miss Park gave the prologue, one sen-
tence of business, and three of pleasure.
The business concerned the emergency
lights of. the hall,.the.pleasure, the-wel-
coming of everyone to the concert. Mr.
Meigs, the architect, stood to receive the
welcome of applause given to him by the
whole audience.. We, the college, were
welcomed by Miss Park as the orchestra
which she herself conducted. Mr. Sto-'
kowski and the Orchestra were welcomed
with the hope that they came not only
as givers of -pleasure, but a kind -of
symbol of the place they took in our.
all too -rigid system of -education. It
would be foolish, Miss Park said, for a
college so near Philadelphia with all of
its advantages to give practical courses in
the arts. Bryn Mawr cannot attempt to
train ‘painters and musicians, but it: can
try ‘to’ make moré intelligent seers “sof*

- A GENEROUS GIFT, GENER-
OUSLY GIVEN

Any gift to the college,"whether
it adds to buildings, or to equip-
ment.or to endowment, is a source
of pleasure to undergraduates and
faculty alike. But perhaps the
best kind of a gift to an educa-
tional institution is one which

. adds to the salaries of its profes-

sors, without whom, after all;
buildings and equipment would be
of little use. It is therefore with
great delight that we hear the an-

_,nouncement._that_.a—new—gift- “of Ht

"$50,000 to Bryn Mawr College
has been presented by Mr. and
Mrs. Julius Goldman, of New
York City. The announcement is
made in the following words:

“In order'to enable Bryn Mawr
College to maintain the high
standard of its teaching, we here-
by give to Bryn Mawr College
the sum of $50,000, to be held by
the trustees of the college, the in-
come of the fund to be used as
+ follows:

“To increase gersiaties of the
head professors "In: the various de-
partments “by adding. such .an
amount to the salaries of the -re-
spective professors which the col-
lege is now paying, as the presi-
dent of the college, may, from
time to time, determine.”

This formula makes it possible
for the gift to be used with the
utmost freedom and the fore-
thought and generosity of Mr. and
Mrs. Goldman are such as_ to
arouse our deepest gratitude.

The editorial in the last: issue. of the

finally to ‘those whose zest for knitting

The. children whose vacation at Bates

a rule possess sweaters; and sweaters
are an obvious necessity for children in
the country, even in midsummer, — Little
‘ummies and chests frequently need to be

To the Editors of the News:

We wish through your generozus

glorious company, the edi‘ors of the
Lantern, to the fact that they too have
been reared in the .stern necessity for
scholarly accuracy which we should ‘not
be here forced to add, has hitherto been
the fuel which fed the fires of Bryn

foundations of our traditions of sound
scholarship have begun to sway. Much
as we dislike - the .setting of imitations
upon the infinite capacity of “the genius
of the Lantern’s artist, such a task is
evidently to be ours. Else how.are we
otherwise to account for her failure to
consult in the original such sources as
Seneca, Lucian,. Diogenes Laertius, Plu-
tarch, Arian; Cicero, Valerius Maximus
and Epictetus, before confronting ° us|
with the spectacle of Diogenes shivering

our bank, inviting us to a party. The

we are bidden to the opening, on Satur-

what is the etiquette of a reception at a

' \Watson’s Theory



CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

impartial and disinterested in an effort to
get at facts, every fact gledned should be
welconied in spite of the theory attached:

/ The challenge involved is what is val-

uable, i.e. psycho-analysis claims that
what takes place in the conscious life is
perverted by what takes place in the un-
conscious sphere. It has cured diseases
by its methods. And while. these facts
are valuable to scientific law, the theory
must be modified.

Theory Has..Value in Method

In 1912 behaviorism demonstrated a
valuabte method and thus threw out a
challenge: to psychologists. Infant edu-
» cation developed and the value of correct-
ing bad habits early in life was proved.
The whole method is rich with’ the prod-
ucts for future research, Dr. Watson
believes that denials are &sential to his
‘method and that one cannot be an-advo-
‘cate of behaviorism without his doctrines.
What are these denials and why does
Dr. Watson think them essential to his
dogma? First, he denies the existence of
the subconscious and says that all Freud-
ism is foolishness. Second, he denies the
existence: of consciousness and says that
there is only body’ life—that thought isa
physical process. He denies these be-
cause he is determined to be a scientist
as -he tinderstands science, -i: e., to deal
only withrthe observable. He feels tre-
mendously distressed that psychology has
lagged behind physiology and neurology,
and thinks/that it can only progress in-
sofar as/ it identifies itself with these

sister ‘sciences.
Psychology Loses Its Soul _
But, Dr. Bridges maintained, mind,
judgment, and thought.:are not physical
and thereforé it is obvious that they can-
not be observed. The tacit principle of
Dr. Watson’s dogma seems to be that
“what is. unmeasurable is unreal. His
premise seems to be, then, that psychology
deals with the same matter as biology and

- physiology. The only difference is that
psychology deals with the organized ac- |

tivities as a whole-and considers the total
reaction to stimuli. In others words, he
treats psychology as.a-science which has
lost its soul and is rapidly losing its.mind.
Dr. Watson is convinced that psychology
has lost*its soul and he will see that it
loses its mind: :
To the layman. it seems unnecessary
that Dr. Watson should have started with
all these denials. With them, he has bur-
dened himself -with>a great-dealof—un-
necessary theory which is an obvious
hindrance. -The theory of behaviorism
involves its advocates in’ self-contradic-
tion and commits them to an airtight
deterministic point of view.

Man Is Physical, Mechanical Creature

Dr. Watson, said Dr. Bridges, also be:
lieves that the only reactions are auto-
matic habit reactions; that there are few,
or no, human instincts, and that there is
no “unconsciousness,” or soul. The fact

that he has retained the word “person- |-

,

ality” in the last chapter of one of his
books after having denied-all the factors
ofepersonality in every’ previous chapter
of the same book, -is .like-the=smile-of=the
departed Cheshire cat, There is no prin-

ciple of. unity..aad-order;,-only~ stimulable:

“centers. And therefore man° is abso-
lutely mechanical: he has no freedom of
will and can do only what he “must” do.
The whole theory affirms a mind without
a thinker, a memory without 4 conscious-
ness, and reduces emotion to a_ visceral
reaction to stimuli. In brief, behaviorism
denies the existence of man and substi-
tutes a purely mechanical automaton.

Thinking, Dr. Watson has affirmed, is
the same as talking except that - the
former is accomplished without making
any. noise. Thought is not a mental
process, but concerns obscure muscular
and nervous movements. Behaviorism,
then, would “think with&ts lungs.” And
as.a result of this theory, if you, as ’a
result of having heard Dr. Watson, are
converted to behaviorism, the ‘basis* of
your belief is nothing more than Dr.
Watson’s own ani

Determinism Contradicts
Responsibility

One of the greatest. of Dr. Watson’s
self-contradjctions is that he says man
must do ste does and to’ change him
we must untrain him’ and retrgia~ him
completely. It is our own fault, he says,
that individuals deviate from a set. stand-
ard of behavior, because we have neg-
‘lected our opportunities for’ training.
And yet he continually reiterates in stat-
ing that man cannot help. himself, he
must do what he thust and nothing else.
If wrong behavior is our own fault, then
the whole theory of determinism falls to

prove his various theories? Take for in-

__.Stance. the. theory. that there_is_no.soul.

| Dr. Watson maintains there is no ¢uch

thing as the soul,-because no one has
ever touched or seen a soul.. But no one
pretends now that mind and soul are
quantitative and special. things—things
that could be “observed” in a test. tube.
Years ago Thomas Huxley said that the
materialists’ talked-of “force and mat-
ter” as if they were one and the same,
when they really knew nothing at all
about force. Nowadays those who know
the most about electricity’ admit that
what they call “electricity” is neither ob-
servable or measurable. Bertrand Rus-
sell says the world of solpnce is.one of
mental’ constryction. _If Dr. Watson
denies the mind that makes that eon-
struction, ‘science is. bankrupt ‘then and
there.

'Dr.’-Bridges contends that mind, will,
personality, etc., are inevitable postulates
of the facts on which behaviorism. places
its denials. Whenever Dr. Watson use
“I” or “me” he rebuilds all that he has
destroyed,

Watson Is Too Scornful

One of the most serious of Dr. Wat-
son’s faults, said.Dr. Bridges, is his habit
of using the most contemptuous language
concerning both his predecessors. and
contemporaries in the field of science.
Even if his own theory were trué, he
would owe it in.a large part to the work
of his- predecessors.. It might surprise
him to learn that his assertions were ob-
served centuries. ago by Socrates in
Athens. In another of his books, Dr.
‘Watson has stated that “the theory of
‘images’ has been given: up in psychol-
ogy.” He seems to say this in order to
hsquare it with the arbitrary theory of
behaviorism, for behaviorism is in no

—--wise-true-#f-the-image-theory-is-accepted.

But images, said Dr. Bridges, areé well-
known facts to even the layman..

This criticism «may -be passéd on .the
theory .of behaviorism: how can the
automatic responses of a machine, in the
absence of mind, ever provide a criterion
whereby truth can be distinguished ‘from
falsehood ?

Dr: Watson talks of. “behavioristic

soon. He seems thereby tq»be ready to
e

tell us how wrong we are and what to

do, and at the same time to tell us -that

we can’t help ourselves anyway because

Any system of-ethics, says there are some
things we should not do and some
things we ought to-do. -But behaviorism
seems to state that there is no “ought.”
‘ Behaviorism is, welcomed as ‘a theory,
concluded Dr. Bridges, but we may well
criticise it with: a view to ridding it of
its many assumptions and dogmas,

College Council Is_,
. Thriving, Miss Park Says
_ In chapel on Monday morning, De-
~~ cember” ‘10, “President “Park: spoke about
.the College Council,* that _all- important
body about which, so little is known by
the college itself. Miss Park told us
"how the Council was started during the
“latter years of the war, to arrange some
way by which students could keep, up in
their academic work and their war work
at the same time. When that need .was
over ‘it. sank into*obscurity. for a while,
“hat it has again become very important.
There were originally eight members on
the committee, but it has now grown to!
such proportions that it is. made up of

_ the President and Dean of the college,
the Director: of Publication, the presi-
dents of the Classes, of the four Asso-
ciations, 6f the Graduate Club and of
the Non-Resident Club, representativés of
the Faculty and Wardens, the Director

of Halls, the Director. of Athletics, and'|.

the Editor-in-Chief ofsthe News. . Thus
information can be referred ‘to and given
‘by. all the organizations in the college.
~The Council has a long and informat}
meeting once a month at which it dis-
cusses extremely varied \_ subjects.
Changes have actually arisen. ftom these
discussions, for in 1923 a Curriculum.
Committee _was suggested from \ whose
first report our present system of less
required ~work..and one major. ‘subject
"arose,

At preseht cuts and week-ends are
being “discussed, but the President and
the Dean and the Faculty are holding
back any changes untjl after*the next
meeting of -the Council. The changes in
the calendar. this year ar@a result of last
year’s discussion. :

Miss Park then mentioned a few ot
the other subjects that‘came up last year.
Among them were Mental Hygiene,

Freshman Week,’ a - separate hali for. |

graduate . students, all topics pertaining
to Goodhart Hall, May Day, and ‘the
College Budget, so the Council will know
just wheré there are financial limitations,

-in her attitude toward you.

to see how a little thoyght or ‘interest
on your~ part could possibly make any:
difference to a-person who would like to
1 think that the
proof of the worth of: being friendly:

be friends with you,

‘s experienced by everyone sometiimes,
You may think a person unattractive,
pushing, and in a way almost deferential
You may: be

sincerity or a desire to. ‘get: into the |
crowd,’ and yet perhaps this same person,
will keep on. just being pleasant and
thoughtful and you will begin to like her
be.ter and see her many good points in-
siead of merely ‘the qualities which an-
noyed you. And the: best’ part of it. all
is, that as you change your attitude to-
ward her, she changes foo, and becomes
he person you think she is, even if she
nay have to struggle with some reforms
in her character and attitude.
_ Friendship Helps

“Thus in being friendly and open’ to
friendship’ you-are-not-only making the
most of your opportunities to know other
people, but at the s@ife time “you are
really doing something for other people,
-for_the_mere.fact of knowing that you
are not indifferent to hef ‘interests ~and
thoughts, gives a person a feeling of self-

confidence and security in her own
powers. ;
“And it is not only the on with
no close friends to whom thi lies, but
to ‘very many~people-whom ink are

self-sufficient and who hide their feelings
of loneliness or shyness under this guise.
It is quite true that no one can be close
friends with everybody. This is not ex-
pected, but it: costs very little to be
friendly and willing to share with others
anything that. you can. And certainly in
college there are many opportugities for
this.”



‘H. Chapin,’’15, Chinese Student

Not long ago Miss Hefen Chapin, Bryn
Mawr, 1915, visited the campus -where
she was formerly an undergraduate, and
spoke to the Journal Club in Archaeology
on Buddhist Iconography. Miss Chapin

and where changes would ariaahy be | is one of the most interested and spirited

possible, .

Every kind of student is represented
on the Council, Miss Park pointed out,
every College interest, and the adminis-
tration as well. This body cannot legis-
late, however, but it is in this very lack
of power that its real power lies. It gets |
definite» action’ from the reports of its
meetings, and though it was created with-

- present: it-18- the core of Bryii Mawr Col:
= Teze.~ Sone
This Council arbitrates on the chaduat

of Bryn Mawr alumnae. For some time
she held a position in the Boston Museum
of Fine Arts, where:she studied Chinese
and Japanese art in the museum, and the
Chinese and Japanese languages outside.
When she had learned as much of these
latter as Boston could teach her Miss
Chapin; with admirable determination, se-
cured a place in the consular: service in
“Shanghai, “where she- could © stu: dy the
language as_well_as the art_of both coun-
|tries at close quarters. She was also em-



ofthe students, not as right or wrone, |
but in general, and as to academic work.
‘Jt therefore must have a general basis
“of agreement, not in detail, for this would :
be impossible, but it must agree as to a
definition of college; that is to say, who;
shall come and what can bé expected.
\This must be true,. because if the ends
are different, the means would naturally
be quite diverse. When the plane~ is
established, there is no part of the imme-
diate question that cannot-be discussed.
Fortunately the Couneil has never
failed to arrive at a like decision con-
cerning what~college is, for. ~ President
Park deprecated the fact that thé num-
bers must necessarily be so limited, but

she concluded, that its work was decidedly
fruitful.

‘indifference or a feeling of superiority.
Some people may like to live in a world
of Nihilists such as those .in Russia in
the ’70’s when the belief in; being perfeét-
ly frank led them to think it wrong to
smile at a person or give him a friendly
greeting unless he was a_ particular
friend, for it was insincere. I think most
of us like a more cheerful atmosphere.
_Lack of friendliness often comes from

ployed for various services by the Japan-
ese Government.

When she could get away
duties, Miss Chapin traveled in the Far
East. She spent some time in a Buddhist:
Monastery, living as the monks did, and
winning the title of ‘the “first” bobbed
Buddhist” nun. While becoming learned
‘n its art she was strongly’ attracted: to
che tenets of Buddhism,

On her way back from the Far East,
Miss Chapin stopped in London, where
she did valuable work in deciphering in-
scriptions and clearing up obscure points
‘n eastern iconography. At present she
is back at the Boston Museum, but. in
March she intends to’ return to’ Japan
by way of Europe and India. She has
been given a scholarship by Swarthmore
College of $2000 a year for three years
to continue her researches. In a year or
two or maybe jmore we may expect her
back. to add more laurels to her own
name and to that of Bryn Mawr.
