HALO QUEEN FLORALLY
Little May Day: was held on May|
1, according to tradition, and all the
time-honored. ceremonies. were duti-
fully observed. The Seniors, awak-
ened at 6 o'clock by the Sophomores,
proceeded .to give a.May. basket to
Miss Park and one to Mrs. Manning;
and at 7 o'clock the sun obligingly
emerged® in response tothe Latin
hymn sung from Rockefeller Tower,
as .it is sung--from the Magdelene
Tower in Oxford. -Miss Woodward,
was crowned Queen of the May on
the stairs with the customary salute
and amid enthusiastic cheers from the
college in the hall below.
Somewhat. revived by strawberries,
chipped beef and the band, the col-
lege danced about the ‘Maypoles on
the green. Mrs.
sented Miss Woodward with a neck-
lace. Miss. Woodward responded with
an unusually entertaining spéech, in
“which she thanked ‘Mrs. Manning for
‘taking the time from her thesis _.to’
attend May Day, and declared ‘that
she thought May Queens were born, |
not ‘nade, and that she advised the
_: college to gaze steadily at the neck-
Jace. She also remarked that she was
-_ glad. to see that the college was re-
taining its old traditions, especially
the weather and the food, but that
she had wondered whether or not we
were going to import Princeton for
May Day, and make Crichton King
of. the May!
Pagan Natures Capable of Intellect
Aiter some exceedingly spontaneous
and
of exhaustion, the scholarships were
announced in Goodhart. Mrs, Man-
ning pointed out that there is always
an easy contrast in celebrating the
birth of nature and scholastic achieve-
ments in the same_ breath. It—is—a
pleasing thought that those who dis-
port themselves on campus all spring
and cause unfavorable comment - by
their pagan natures are capable of
intellectual natures, too. They are not
guided. by a sober and dismal appear-
ance, but they know the thrill of men-
tal experience.
It is pleasant. to the, administrator;
Mrs. Manning declared, to contem-
‘plate the intellectual test. There ‘is
always the question -of whether or
not the administration is giving the-
student the material which will put
her on her mettle. -
One chapel a year is not too long
in which to honor the students who
have been most successful. These are
the students to whom the marks often
mean the least. A _ student often
proves her mettle by wandering about
in_ the subject-in which she-is—inter-
ested, but in general the marks guide
the faculty. They are the only sym-
bols of Achievement, signifying ‘the
poiit reached in the approval of the
faculty, and are the guides in award-
ing the scholarships. ,
Graduate. Life Not All Gloom
Mrs. Manning admitted that there
is an increasing latitude in the award-
~ing of the scholarships, and that it is
not always done on a purely mathe-
matical basis, but those who have
met their” teachers on their own
ground, and who have contributed the
most to the college, are chosen. ;

‘Perkins Elected
A competition so closé that it
was necessary for the ‘college to
vote twice in order that. its bal-
loting should constitute an elec- -
tion resulted in the choice, of Eliz-
abeth Perkins, ’30, for the office
of President of the Undergraduate
‘Association, and» of Virginia

SOUL IS LIGHT OF MAN
Dr. Rufus Jones led Sunday evening
chapel in the Music Room of Good-
hart. Dr. Jones first. quoted a ‘pas-
sage from Upanishads of India, which
he felt fitted perfectly into what he
was about to say. The tale is that
of the king who asked an Indian .sage
to tell him “what is the light of man?”
‘The sage ‘replies successively as the
question is repeated: that the sun, the
moon and fire are each the light of
man, “for having them man sits, moves
about, does his work and returns.”
Still the king persists, “but the moon
_sets,-the-sun- sets” and ‘fire goes out,
The
the
what then is the light of man?”
Sage replies, “then the: soul is
light of ;man.”’
“I do not. want you to feel_I.am
giving a set addréss, but I read this
extraordinary passage because it so
perfectly comes out of a central truth:
the faith of the mystic soul of man
is in contact with a greater light
shining through that soul: Truth
must rest solidly on facts of experi-
ence. What is true -of-truth~in ~all
other. fields mustbe-true-in- religion.
Truth must: be deeply rooted in the
inward life and soul’of man and must
be tested by outward experience; it
‘must be a creative faculty, a driving
force and a permanent strength. There
is a movement now in the direction
of mystical religion, a movement pow-
erfully in evidence all over the world.
This is a type of inward religion that
builds -on—first-hand personal _experi-
ence, and is not satisfied with reports
of other people’s experience. It is
not satisfied to rest solely upon tradi-
tional authorities and doctrines.
“Mystical religion is always con-
tagious. It is a radiant sort of thing
and floods out from the very presence
of the person with plenitude of char-
fora certain number of hours anday:
The life seems lacking in charm and
interest to those outside, and its qual-
ity can only be guessed at. There is,
however, a sense of the command of
a world of your own; you are captain
of your soul and of your environment.

on the question of reparations in
chapel on Monday morning, May 6.
She pointed out that the question is a

that

The reasons for the present repara-
tions meeting in Paris weré then enu-
merated in reverse order of impor-
tance. The first is that the four mil-
lion dollars owed to the United States
by France, on which she has_ been
paying twenty million a year, is due in
August, and the situation will em-
barrass France unless some arrange-
ment can be made. Secondly, this is
the first normal year under the Dawes
plan, after the four transitional years,
and: some adjustments will probably
be necessary. In the third place, Mr.
Gilbert wants to return to the United
States after. his four years’ absence.
Finally, the foreign borrowings of
Germany in the United States are very
heavy, and.they’may_not continue. At
present they are very complicated /by
the bull stock market.
The whole situation is economic
guesswork, Such big sums have hever
been handléd before, and also the in-
tercommunications of the economic
world have. let loose forces that are.
hard to control. “A further complica-
tion ‘to be found in~ the-political
| commitments, both between, countries
and within their ?own borders. No
government can go back on its com-
mitments without being /overthrown.
The heaviness of taxation in foreign
countries brings: about / such condi-
tions as the danger of Communism in

Dr. Dulles thén poitited out the main
problems confronting /the Reparations

Wilde, Original Bunthorne,
Was an Affected Aesthetic
Ghear. Wilde, as the prototype of the
Bunthorne of Patience, was the subject
of Miss Carey’s talk in Chapel on Fri-
daymorning.’ Wilde’s exotic nature was |
foreshadowed by his parents, particularly |
by his mother, who did. some writing,
and was prominent in Dublin society, in
early life for her beauty, dater for a
strange mixture of dignity with the
bizarre.
Oscar Wilde was born in 1854 in Dub-
lin, and. was christened Oscar Fingall
O’Flahertie Wills* Wilde. He" was, sent
to school when he was eleven years old,
and he first distinguished himself by ap-
pearing in his tafl Silk hat. © After his
career in’ Trinity College, Dublin, where
he \won a gold medal for an essay on
Greek Comic Poets, he won a fellow-
ship at Magdalen College, Oxford. At
Oxford he developed the bizarre charac-
teristics which we know so well. He
collected a large number of exotic en-
“gravings for his Walls; his “pottery was’
really valuable, and he. remarked: “O
that I could live up to my blue. china.”
When John Ruskin lectured at Oxford
on the “Aesthetic and Mathematical
Schools of Florence,” Wilde was diligent
in attendance at all the breakfast parties
and discussions.
In spite of complete ignorance of
painting and “music, ‘he-assumed-the-role
of artist and critic, and his remark, about
“a splendid scarlet thing by Dvorak” be-
a group of undergraduates, who dragged
him unceremoniously up a hill, he merely
observed as they let. him go, “Yes, the

Patience Proves a
@mplete Success
Spirit of Operetta Is Well Put
Over by: Glee Club’
Performance,
CAST IS EXCELLENT
The presentation of Patience ‘by the
Glee Club on Friday/and Saturday, May
3 and 4, was artistic from evéry point of
view. The operétta, like all Gilbert and
Sullivan, lends itself well to the amateur
stage, because of the pleasing, light qual-
ity of both words and music. Yet the
development of the satire on aestheticism
requires a /skilf which taxes the profes-
sional actor. Both cast and choruses
caught the comic spirit of the opera and
by their enthusiasm won the sympathy of
the audience.
The first act, although slow in move-
ment because of its lovelorn’ character,
is carried over by the heavy Dragoons.
Their bright uniforms and military man-
‘ner. form a brilliant background for the
aesthetic Bunthorne and his twenty love-
sick followers. : The action is carried
through the advent of Grosvenor- to the
double climax where the maidens return
to the Dragoons, since Patience clairiis
Bunthorne, and desert again to Gros-
venor, who is “aesthetic,”- The movement
of the second act is more rapid and de-
cisive,
goons pervade the stage, while Grosvenor
thoves attended by the rapturotis maidens.
Bunthorne proves a true philosopher
when ~he~strikes—his—final— aesthetie—pose
against the background of the common.
men. and: women.
Bunthorne and. Grosvenor Pooular
The singing and acting of, Patience |
were uniformly good. The “principals
handled their long and- strenuous. parts
effectively. Seldom are such adequate
solo voices found arnong amateurs. - Pa-
tience, Bunthorne, and Grosvenor, were
excellently cast for quality ‘of voice and
dramatic suitability. The solos of Pa-
tience, a. little too sweet and innocent to
rival in popularity those of - Bunthorne
and Grosvenor, were, nevertheless, very
pleasant, particularly “when he was a
little boy,” where the Lady Angela adds
her own insistent “‘little’ note to the re-”
frain. | Bunthorne’s songs in- the first
act, “I.Am an Aesthetic Shaw,” and “Such
a Judge of Blue and White,” were follow-
ed by his equally effective duets. with
Lady Jane and Grosvenor in act two—
“Say Boo to. You,” and “A Commonplace
Young Man.” Grosvenor, introduced late
in act one, has a charming duet with
Patience, “Willow, Willow,” before he
entertains his’ lovelorn maidens with
“The Silver’ Churn.” Both Bunthorne
and Grosvenor, because of their clever
appeals to the audience were enthusias-
tically received. ‘The Lady Jane was
excellently played, the union of’ good
singing and = acting being perfectly
achieved.
The choruses were particularly ‘suc-
cessful in introducing diversity of detail
without _losing._their.....group.character
Both entered into the spirit of the opera
and enjoyed their roles as thoroughly as
did the audience. The love-sick maidens
languished with utter abandon. A great
deal of credit goes to their three spokes-
men who were constantly called upon to
develop the aesthetic views of the group
to Patience and the Dragoons on. whose
numerous songs the development of the
plot depended. The Dragoons were more
colorful. and decidedly. normal..in _ their
reactions. The military drill, commanded
by the efficient Major, was the delight
of the audience who. were completely fas-
cinated by its intricacies. Much of the
spice of the operetta was-due to the
amusing songs of the’ Colonel and the
distressing dilemma of the “Lieutenant -
and his fellows as “aesthetic” wooers. _

HERE’S TO OUR ARTISTS
Patience is ovex, and the college
heaves a sigh of relief and boasts
that something artistic has come out
of Bryn Mawr. The cast gargles
its sore throat and flounders hope-.
lessly through its back work, glad
to have sacrificed itself in the cause
of-art. And the noncombatants re-
gret that, they had no part in the
great triumph. Every one realizes
the value of a finished production,
and every one feels the warmest
‘gratitude to the Glee Club. T
operetta means college co- operation
and labor of the same type required
by Mayday, though on a_ smaller
scale; and the perfection — of
Patience was the ,reward for the
effort of presenting it.. The satis-
faction derived from truly” artistic |.

FOREIGN POLICY
Our: somewliat dismaying’ policy
~ of complete isolation, so, long criti-
cized and discussed by the more
—broadminded-_and-farseeing-of-Am-
erican patriots, is showing signs of
a slow but very sure death. It is
more than noteworthy that, during
the-past few weeks, three items of
international importance have chief-
ly concerned American public men.
First of these was Mr. Hughes
sailing to take his seat at the World
Court. Second was the announce-
ment of Mr. Hugh Gibson, in Gen-
eva, of America’s willingness to
enter into a really substantial plan
for naval disarmament. Last, and
possibly most important, is the plan,
of Mr. Owen Young to cut down
. the war reparations demands so that
they will be more within the limits
of what Germany claims she is able |
to pay. Each of these pieces of
news marks a rather notable step
in the progress of our attainment of
an international point of view=-We'-

In their Denbigh clubroom, the
graduate students have always dis-
pensed hospitality at tea time to fac-
and ‘ undergraduates. In . the
larger quarters of Radnor- the Col-
lege will be able to entertain both with

groups.act in.turn as hostesses with
the warden, might well. ih Radnor be
converted into teas at which depart-
ments or groups of departments would
like to entertain their faculty ‘and the
advanced undergraduates in’ \ their
fields. It is thought, too, that\ the
| graduate students, with a dining-room
and reception-rooms all their own, will
feel more _ like entertaining their
friends, and the Dean of the Gradu-
at@School will arrange, from time to
| time, to entertain in the hall dining-
room, people both from within and
without the college whom the students
will enjoy meeting informally.
Any such. plans, however, are per-
functory beside the as yet intangible
reality “that will be the life which the
graduate students will work out for
themselves. The undergraduates of
the country have pretty satisfactory
established a life that suits them.
Graduate students have only -in_ the
rarest instances, as in the Graduate
College at..Princeton, been given a
-|.chance. to. carry. out any thought they
might have for their community exist-
ence. The opening of Radnor as a
graduate hall gives to a_ group of |
highly-picked young women scholars |
an. opportunity for self;determination. |
The establishment of traditions of liv-
ing within Radnor jtself will be the |
pioneer job of the graduate students
of 1929-1930. . It will be the task of
every one in the College to help them
establish the best possible conditions:
of intercourse between Radnor and the
rest of the College.
The interest and ‘significance of the
graduate group are very striking to
any one who watches it being collected
year. by year from all corners of this
country and from the ends of the earth.

' ‘the opporftinity ‘to cartoon him, “his head

with a suitable inscription beneath.
In 1881 his first volume appeared, and
in spite of ruthless treatment at the hands
of the critics—Punch called it “Swit-
burne and Water”—four editions were
published in a month. g\fter this suc-
.. cess Oscar Wilde visited America, and
astounded the country by his remarks on
his disappoiritment in the majesty of the
Atlantic and in Niagara Falls, where,
he said, “every American bride is taken,”
and which niust be “one of the earliest,
if not the keenest, disappointments in
American married life.” At his lecture
in Boston a group of Harvard students
appeared in outlandish costume, each
adorned with a sunflower and a lily. Os-
car Wilde was in moderate dress, and he
confounded the men utterly by offering
them a ‘statue of a Greek athlete for their
gymnasium.
' On his return to England, his peculiar
affectations had been thrown aside, and
his futher career, although of great“lit-
erary importance, fails to have interest
for us in relation to Patience. Miss Carey
closed with a quotation from Holbrook
Jackson summing up Oscar Wilde as a
“dandy of intellect, dandy of manners,
dandy. of dress,” “for ever telling him-
self an eternal tale in which he himself
is hero.”

This Poor Player. Shirley Watkins.
(Macrae-Smith Co.)
As a-rule, first novels may be modified
by some one adjective, as “promising,”
“poor,” or “pleasant”—and the reviewer
need feel no pangs from a conscience
which calls him back to do more jus-
tice to the book. Not so, This Poor
Player, first novel of the Philadelphian,
Shirley - Watkins. This book commands
attention, and a great deal of the atten-
tion which it has received since its re-
cent publication has been migre than
favorable.

losopher, writer, “a veryi.: promising
young man—by profession” written

ever, which’ interest$ us so: “very much.
Miss Watkins has caught the ‘Character
of the man upon a very setisitive plate,
and she has developed it with a keen
sense of touch. External, things are
made to count for little; the reader. is
never quite sure just where:a good deal
of the action is laid. It is an atmos-
phere, an environment, which Miss Wat-
kins, so admirably creates. Her writing
is, somehow, comparable té the paint-
ings of Monet. A vague, hazy image
‘| gives ‘the feeling. of reality far more than
do the sharper outlines of a less skilled
pen or brush. Dialogue which is not
idiomatic, and which rarely imitates real
conversation, ‘gives deeper knowledge of
a character. than would the trite . re-
influence of the. great Russians. of last
century has. left its mark upon this
modern woman. The point of attack, the
importance of character analysis, the
very populous background ‘of life,--all
seem to hark back to such stiiguished
teachers:—* * =
Birney, touched with a light spot of
genius, lives the tragic nightmare of
struggling to keep up faith in himself,
of eternally justifying himself (often un-
necessarily) before the world. He talks
remarkably well; he charms people, and
he has a-convincing, though seldom last-
ing, method of logic. He is intelligent,
‘and he works hard; withal, he is dubbed
charlatan by the worldly sophisticates

‘News From Other Colleges
Are Against Prohibition
Some doubt is cast upon the claim. of
a prominent-dry leader several weeks ago,
that the colleges are predominantly in
favor of prohibition by the Stanford
Daily’s recent straw vote. Student ar-
ticles, a host of letters-to-the-editor and
much undérgraduate discussion’ prepared
the way for the ballot. A majority of
the eight hundred and twenty students
who cast their ballots do not believe that
prohibition has been a, success; and while
they favor retention of the amendment
they would repeal the’ Volstead Act, be-
lieving, presumably, in some form of
modification.
While the students of Mr. Heover'l
alma mater voted against prohibition, the
senior class at Columbia College, New
York—the heart of -the “nullification”
district—voted 88 to 38 in favor of it—

at the same time there is a_ feeling
Pthat the time has come for German
sovereignty of policy.
Under the Dawes plan there are an-
‘nuities of Six hundred million a year;
the allied memorandum asks for five
hundred million a year for sixty-two
years after the war... Germany has
offered four million a year, but Dr. |
Dulles noted in the~ paper~thismorn=
ing that Mr. Young has drawn up a
memorandum compromising on four
hundred and fifty million a year. A
compromise has also been made on
the transfer problem; the payments are
to be nade in two sections: one, irre-
spective of the effect on the ex-
change; the other only if the exchange
will be unaffected.

that she will.do so, since Mr. Mor-

Gilbert reported a clean bill of finan-

Dulles declared this an cunggdrenon;s

is political unrest, and the borrowing
in the United States cannot go on.
In conclusion, Dr.. Dulles said that
she feels that even if France accepts
the amount at four hundred and fifty
million. dollars, there will have to be
an even greater reduction.

manner by the American public, which,

This Students’ Guide will be com-

tion will give*information about stu-
' dent tours, camps and centres, as well
as the main congresses and confer-
ences taking place in Europe this
summer. These include the interna-
tional camp at Lake Balaton in Hun-
gary from August 10 to 22, and the
C. I. E. Council meeting in Budapest,
Hungary, at the same time. It will
include. notes on national festivals and
traditional celebrations, art and music
centres, exhibitions and music festi-
vals. There will also'’be information
- about summer schools and vacation
courses, as well as sporting items and
a special chapter on important Euro-
pean political events.
The second part will deal mainly
with the work of the international so-
cieties in Europe and the facilities they
offer to the student traveller.
includes details about opportunities
offered in large centres, such ,as Paris,
Geneva,-Rome,-Berlin,_etc.,-as-well-as
information about the international
student identity card, the handbook of
student. travel, and other informative
and useful books for travellers..
The American edition of the Inter-
national Student Identity Card, as’ pre-
viously announced, can be obtained
(price, $1.00) by any student regis-

League Is a Success
Another way to make the college boys
feel important is found in the second
Intercollegiate League of Nations, which
was held the other week at Mount Holy-
Oke College. Thirty colleges and uni-
versities were represented by three hun-
dred delegates, who in turn “represented”
fifty-six nations. In imitation of the-real
League at Geneva, a dance was held to
start the festivities.
However, the next morning serious
work was waiting, for the representa-
tives-had-to dispose of the Bolivia-Para-
guay dispute. As soon as the . minor
business was out of the way the “League”
discussed such incidents as the Kellogg
pact, disarmament and the move for in-
ternational peace. Resolutions to reduce
armaments and to form an international
police force to guarantee peace were in-
troduced and hotly ‘debated. »
After the collegians had demonstrated
their superiority to the real League: by
disposing of all these problems. in_one
day, they listened to praise and criticism
