FAITH GREATEST
NEED OF WORLD

Complexity and Disillusion of
Life Make Youth Test
All Theories.

EDUCATION TWO-FOLD

“By faith Abraham, when he was













‘called to go out into a place which he

should after receive for an inheritance,
obeyed; and hé went out, not knowing
whither he went.” This was the text for
the Baccalaureate sefmon: preached by
Henry Pitney Van Dusen Sunday eve-
ning, May 29, in the Gymnasium.

True education as a preparation for
life involves a two-fold understanding
without which one cannot serve or even
live fully. That is, an understanding of
the facts, forces and problems that have
occurred in different forms all through
history and are the facts and problems of
the present day. Although the former

|is probably the most important, it is the

latter which interests youth chiefly.

In considering: modern life it is the
complexity of it that stands out. And
it is not only our practical lives that are
complex, but our thought lives and our
emotional lives, making our inner ex-
perience a tangle like a subway jam.
Thus it is that the philosophies of today
are pluralistic; instead of being the re-
flections of ultimate reality they are the
reflections of our actual lives. —

Due partly to the scientific spirit with

its, passion for truth, and partly to the
post- -war_ disillusionment in which we

for realism in all departments of modern
life. It is futile now to appeal to author-

REALIZATION

Another college year is ended.
‘It seems rather too bad to have to
leave just as the campus is at its
loveliest. And it really ig lovely.
We feel it most of all during this
week. Usually we are too busy
bustling and “bellering” to feel
the beauty and the charm which:
- lies about us. This last strangely
peaceful week has given many of
us a chance to gather our impres-
sions together and feel things for
the first time. No sooner do we
achieve this realization than we
have to leave. The gathering to-
gether of loose ends into a whole
consciousness of our surroundings
hardly has time to sink into our
minds, a swift feeling of unity
with the college, -of wholeness
within ourselves, and then we go.







FOR THE CHILDREN’S
WARD

Is there nothing new under the

sun? One of the most interesting
new things that has happened
vlately, after. Lindbergh’s feat, is
the competition held. in all the
New York Public Schools, for de-
signs for the Children’s ward. in
‘the Washington Heights Hospi-
tal, The prize winning designs, all
the work of children from 10 to
15 years old, were judged on two
grounds ; first, they had to pass
before artists, then before doctors.
This resulted in ruling out a rep-
resentation of Miss’ Muffet, be-
cause that young lady looks too
realistically frightened to be
soothing; and ruling in one of
Alice in Wonderland and_ the
card chorus, which, while it may
not be art, is certainly pleasant to
look upon.

The most impressive thing
about the competition, according
to the judges, was the high level
of excellence in the entries; they
all show interesting and effective
treatment. The children have a
natural feeling for composition
and color, combined with a re-
freshing/simplicity of treatment,
which Made 1000 of the drawings
submitted worthy of preservation.

The whole competition came
about because one enterprising
public school teacher had i imagina-
tion enough to use the new build-
ing as an inspiration for her class.
She had them design a window
for the hospital. “To make little
sick children forget that they were
sick.” These sketches, brought to
the architects, provided a convinc-
ing enough argument so that the
project was launched. The results
of this teacher’s inspiration will
make the Washington Heights
_ Hospital a unique and tremen-
deusly interesting place for a
_ ertat pany. years to come..

Commhnications

(The College News is not responsible
for opinions expressed in this ¢glumn.).
To the¢Editor of the Conese News:

Nothing seeffis to ;be, more impossible
for an Alumna than: to agcept with any
degree of resignation the fact that the
College refuses to remain at the exact
stage. with which she is familiar. No
matter how broad-minded she may or-
dinarily ‘be, when she enters Pembroke
arch, she bristles with apprehensiveness.
She sniffs: suspiciously outside all the
smoking Yagooms—she probably smokes
herself, but that makes no difference—;
she eyes with disgust the latest ‘campus
costume ; ‘she eats at the Inn with ill-
concealed scorn fdr the loud-voiced
throng who sit playing bridge and
- |slandering the college while they wait
for their costly, suppers. Even we our-
selves, who are ‘slightly complacent
about .our adaptability, have been roused
to passionate indignation at the simple
sight of an orchid in a May basket; and
have pitied a college generation which
could find no pleasure in gamboling on
the green. .

Why’ do Alumnae behave in_ this
fashion? We have no explanation to
offer. Yet—we suspect that the very
Freshmen who find so little at Bryn
Mawr to please their exquisite palates
will in 10 years be writing letters to the
NEws about the outrageous antics of the
Class of 1940.

Mort ALUMNAE.



Boston Censors

“After declaring a number of recent
novels to be violating the Massachusetts
law, prohibiting the distribution of ob-
scene and indecent books, just in time
to revive the rather waning sale of cer-
tain of these books, the district attor-
ney’s office informed the Booksellers’
Committee of Boston that the gentle-
men’s agreement which had existed for
a number of years concerning the en-
forcement of this law was at an end. By
this agreement the Booksellers’ Com-
mittee and members of the Watch and
Ward Society passed on books and the
police took no action on books approved.
Booksellers were warned of the books
not passed and had an opportunity to re-
move them from their shelves. The
bookseller must now attempt to decide
for himself what the district attorney
jor his reader will consider indecent. The
district attorney refused to give any
opinion on some 50 books submitted to
him for approval. This leaves the book-
seller in the enviable position of never
knowing when someone will consider
some book indecent and arrest him for
selling it. The booksellers have taken
no action in this case but have preferred
to await the publishers action. Har-.
court Brace and Boni and _ Liveright
seem preparing to make test cases in the
courts to clear the issue and determine
the basis for interpreting the law. The
whole situation seems more or. less ri-
diculous.

We do not mean to intimate that there
are no obscene books printed. Certain-
ly many receut novels are merely rot-
ten. Putting aside the question ° of
whether suppressing books is effective or
merely a form of gratuitous advertis-
ing, the absurdity of the situation lies in
the lack of system employed in select-
ing books for this occasionally appro-
priate stigma. The juxtaposition of
books on the last list was rather amus-
ing. One might as well couple Tess of
the d’Urbervilles with Michael Arlen’s
latest effort. After all with the lamen-
table scarcity of possible plots it is the
treatment of the theme which determines
its morality or immorality,

‘The question of censorship is one of
widespread interest in the country today.
Whatever the effect of censorship may
be, it ought at least to call attention to
the number of ‘rather sloppily biological
novels now on. the market. To range
ridicule on the side of these - books
would be unfortunate. If there must be
censorship let it at least be intelligent.
Surely some ere suitable group of
censors may ‘be imagined than several
rerias aa a district attorney who

take on the responsibility.”—The~ Blue

“It's a hard question. Tom certainly

“Yes, he is beautiful, but dumb. Jim

“Well, I' have adopted a new policy.

.One of the nicest things about having
the Alumnae back is the rise in the
quality of the college food that accom-
panies them.



There is dissension in our ranks. You
wouldn’t believe how much commotion
has been caused by the fact that the
News will have an office of its own next
year. The great problem is: What color
scheme shall we have? Green is a nice
conservative color, while if we have red,
our policy will immediately become radi-:
cal,“so you see what a serious problem
it is. The only disadvantage we have
yet discovered about having the office is
that Cissy Centipede will have to be
banned from it; she may visit us in our
room, but not at the office—in a nice new
building like Goodhart Hall, she would
be distinctly out of place.

temporary home; and like Ibsen he bat

considered. and proved literature to be a
thing of enormous impdrtance. He was
a fighter for liberty, reason and nature,
who only by chance, perhaps, found his
issues on the field of literature. Even
then he by no means found them in,
belles-lettres merely. The storm which

preceded his being refused the profes-

sorship of aesthetics at the University of

Copenhagen in 1872 was raised over the

ideas he had been insinuating into his

lectitfes. He was of course a Jew; and

it became known quickly enough that he

entertained modern, naturalistic notions

of morality and art.

Doubtless it was well that he aban-

doned academic life and became for

years a wanderer. As a glorified free-

lance he came upon bigger game than he

would ever have aimed at in the lecture

hall; in search of ideas he learned that

ideas have every sort of application—

political, social, and practical as well as

metaphysical. One of his first tasks had

been a translation into Danish of John

Stuart Mill’s “The Subjection of

Women”; he was -to write books about

Disraeli and Ferdinand Lassalle; during

the war, in a brilliant controversy with

Clemenceau, he stood above the battle,

serving with Romain Rolland as spokes-

man of the European spirit; and in his

essay he sought to interpret the

Jesus “myth.” Doubtless at his death he

seemed no longer .radical to the’ most ad-

vanced Danes, and indeed there had long

been a rather futile movement to dis-

lodge. him from his eminence as leader. '
He will stand as a critic whose courage

and scope demonstrated what always

needs to be demonstrated, the exciting

significance of the imagination. His
faith ins America sg of West-
ern civilization gives him peculiar signi-

ficance for us.

The University of Texas reports that
for the first time in twenty years a
woman has been given permission to en-
roll in the civil engineering department.
Two reasons for the scarcity of women in
this department are the clothing worn by
the women and the bashfulness of the in-
structors. As an explanation of this, the

girls’ were enrolled in the department.
While on a surveying trip it was ob-—
served that instruments would not work
correctly when the girls were near them.
The professor said that he had heard
that girls had. some. magnetism about
them, but surely not enough to affect the _
compass neédle. Further investigation
caused the instructor blushingly to inforr:
the. girls | :



The girls in, 1927 do not have any
effect on the compass.

theorys put the test—Does it worl?

it self-consistent? We insist that hunggn
telationships be grounded on the earth
even if the earth be muddy. Religion
itself is deprived of its age-old inex-
plicability; it too must stand the test or
be discarded. We - feel that if ‘ truth
courage, heroism and idealism are fig-
ments pf. the imagination it is better to
know it and be reconciled to it.

People froni other lands say that we
are like barks. floating rudderless and
without: destination on the Surface of the
placid sea. We are complacent and sat-
isfied, but storms will occur on any sea,
and then what of us? Although tmost of
us think there is something in ‘religion
we do not honestly know what we be-
lieye. ‘Religion-is of consequence only
when it is*of such absolute conviction
that, it directs, unifies, and empowers life.
As substitutes for this true religiorf we
have turned to, superior — cynicism,
Menckenism, to the cult of beauty, to
-a shallow optimism, or to cheap sensual
emotionalism. _ But all of these are im-
practical and socially unproductive.

The final and perhaps, dominating

‘ oe .
factor in modern life is a restless dis-
satisfaction, a sense of frustration and
futility. Using every ounce of his energy
and, interest man has built a civilization
that” is mechanically almost perfect.
Now he does not know what to do with
it. He is like & boy who has built a
perfect toy house and is beginning to
grow up. “Relentless realism, intellec-
tual shrewdness and moral flabbiness
cannot be combined without paying the
price—futility. Among the many grad-
uating this week the dominating query
is—was it worth while? What. is the
meaning of it all anyway? We say we
want faith in life itself, not religious
faith—failing to see that they are the
same.”

This sense of loss is largely to be ex-
plained psychologically; we live in’a
fear-dominated .age and trust no. one,’
neither each other nor ourselv es—and of
course not God.

But in -spite-of-this~ dissatisfaction, or
perhaps because of it, there is a tre-
mendous aid -growing intérest in re-
ligion. ;.“Humanity is on. the march
questing something which haunts life
like a confused: echo of a. faraway mel-
ody.” Most of us choose to :be blind to
‘the nature of ‘modern life, and no two of
us see it alike. Seeing the day in which
we. live for what it is, we may--take
refuge in cynicism or asceticism. Or we

may see it as an. adventurous prospect]

“In asking a man so fear their own
age to speak, the Class of .1927 has dpne

a thing characteristic of the day,” said|

Dr. Van Deusen, . “That, is, they .have
sought wisdom from one who faces the
world as they do, seeking not a finished
philosophy, but a few tested hirits. There
are just three words which , should be
given to those graduating : a word of

hope, a familiar word about the adven-,

ture and joy ahead; a word of warning,
also familiat, about the disappointment¢
from within as well as without; a word
of urgency about our fleeting opportuni-
ties and the need for haste.”

The world’s most pressing need today’

is for ‘men and women who do not ex-
pect to see the fruition’ of their ideals,

but who know that to give all of life

for them is well worth whife. ‘We need
faith, not faith that is the belief in some
one or something, but.the courage to do
one particular thing because it seems
right, regardless of consequences—cour-
age to live life on the highest hypothesis
we can discover. “We must have people
who wmnderstand the world, who are
realistic, but who feel the call to go out
into an unknown country which may be
their heritage, but who go out not know-
ing whither they go.”

The men loaded the

the campus that many doubted there had

been a fire at all, and the maids, like
peasants on the slopes of Vesuvius, re-
turned trustingly to their eyrie in the

The Varsity-Alumpae
game on ‘Wednesday, May 31, showed

« water polo

that the strain of rgcent exams did not
hav® a too devastating effect on the Var-
sity. team; however, their_victory: Was
hard won-and the final score was close,
5-3, .
At the opening of the first half the
Alumnae claimed the ball with a rush
and scored the first goal ‘by a beautiful
long shot from Carey.
soon taken away from them by Tuttle,
who arrived late,¢but made up for this
by the extreme punctuality with’ which
she , reached. the center each time the
~ whistle blew. During the first half ‘Field,
playing a very reliable right forward,
succeeded ‘in making three clean goals
in spite of Fitzgerald’s valiant defense.
Dalziel, emulating the long passes and
throws of the Alumnae, made a gorge-
ous long distance. shot, and the first half
ended with Varsity ahead.
The first goal of the second half was
also made_by the Alumnae, and was fol-
lowed by a second, a throw from Rice,
more than half the length of the pool.
But just as the Alumnae were creeping
up, Field made another goal, and nothing
more was done ‘befdre time was called.
Most of the playing was scrappy in the
middle of the field, and every one was
heavily guarded; however, there was not
an unusual amount of fouling. Varsity.
worked together very well, but the best
individual player, M. Carey, was on the
‘ Alumnae team. The line-ups were as
follows:
Varsity—J. Seeley, 27; K. G@. Field,

“was put out when Parker neatly caught

a long hard hit.

Fieser was the hero of the Seventh,
making a home ruii with the bases full
and two out. This forced the score up
to 28-19. oe

In the eighth inning the Faculty
weren't taking any chances with the
heavy hitters and passed Seeley, Bruere,
and Kellogg on balls. The rest of this
inning provided no excitement, but
brought the score up to 31-22.,

Only one-half of thegninth inning was

‘won the game.

Carey made several brilliant stops at

on for hard hits.

Newspaper Service at

Students are urged to take advantage
of the opportunity, to write. which is af-
forded by the United Feature Syindicate
of New York, an organization’ owned
and operated by the ! United ‘Press As-
sociations, which’ proposes an’ Interna-
tional Newspaper Sérvicé by’ student
writers here and abroad.

The purpose of this ‘service is to give
the younger generation a chance to ex-
press its gratitude toward its world. As
this is to be a youthful undertaking ex-
clusively, these artieles will be judged by
a board of students who will decide
which ones metit publication, these to
be sent in to the syndicate. This is an
especially good time of the year to send
in contributions because, due to the mul-

“titude of things which always crowd into

the last few weeks~of the school year,

few articles are being handed in.

Only material which is good news-
paper copy and is written on*a subject
of general interest will be accepted. Car-
toons. which tell a story or make a
point are just as useful as. articles and
are solicited. Both articles and cartoons
will be paid for, one-third of the gross

: proceeds from the sale of the service to
_ go to the student writers, being divided

equally between the four or five con-
tributors, whose articles have been ac-|



cepted for publication, one-third to de-

augural address, is designed to recognize

couragement for academic irfterest, .and
to prevent that interest from being dis-
couraged by aSsoefation with mediocrity.

Wellesley Makes Survey

of College Curriculum
A study of the curriculum as it has
been worked out by the other darge
women’s colleges, _gempared - in detail
with the present’ curriculum at Welles-
ley, discloses interesting points of vari-
ance. Three of the colleges whose cur-

ricufum has attracted our attention,

Vassar, Barnard and Smith, are ‘already
working out the group system, but in
each ‘case it is a different grouping of
subjects, and the student: is granted
varying degrees of option in her selec-
tion from the groups. Vassar and Bar-
nard each requires of all students Eng-
lish Composition, Spoken English, Hy-
giené and Physical Education, but these

are >the only subjects in the catalogue for

which no alternative may be offered.

3ryn Mawr, which does not use the
group system, differs from Wellesley in
requiring a reading knowledge of French
and German for the Bachelor of Arts
degree. Also the following subjects are
required: Greek or Latin, six semester
hours; English, 12\ semester hours;
Philosophy and Pscychology, each four
semester hours, and ‘10 hours of sci-
ences, ( Bryn, Mawr courses frequently,
meet five times a week, it must be re-
membered.) Fifty semester hours of the
major subject. and allied coursés are re-
quired of eath student. ‘

‘Mount Holyoke is the one other large
college which places emphasis upon a’
Bible course, yet even there it is not
without an alternative. The definitely re-
quired subjects are English, | Spoken
English and a year of French, or Ger-
man, which may be met by examination.
The student is then free to choose seven
out’ of the eight following groups: Bib-
lical Literature, Chemistry or Physics,
English Literature, Greek or Latin, His-
tory, Mathematics, Philosophy and Psy-
chology. and another science, either
Astronomy, Botany, Geology, Physiolo-
gy, or Zoology. The college bulletin, in
a statement of policy prefixed to the pre-
scribed list of courses, justifies the re-
quired courses by saying that basic
courses in fundamental and representa-
tive _subjectsaccomplish..the..orientation
of the students’ thinking, and aid in the
choice of major and minor subjects.
Vassar agrees with the other colleges
in not requiring mathematics, but has its
own individual plan of prescribing one
year of European history. A Vassar
student is free to elect five subjects from
five of the following six grotips: classi-
cal literature, modern foreign literature,
third foreign language, mathematics,
chemistry or physics, and lastly, the re-
maining sciences. t
Barnard. has the groupings of subjects
narrowed down to the smallest number,
allowing ‘the student to choose from the
three large groups :—I. Languages, liter-
ature and other fine arts. II. Mathematics
and the fatural science III. The so-
cial sciences. The number of groups in
the Smith curriculum has been reduced
from ten to four, subjects falling under
the group divisions of languages, litera-
ture and fine arts, sciences and social
sciences,—Wellesley News.



Point of Juncture Found |

Although the student bodies of Har-
vard ang Princeton have been separated
on the athletic field, they are now to be
united in the field-of art. A joint pub-
lication, “Art Studies,” will be produced
through a grant of $7500 provided by a
Harvard graduate.

‘The donor desires to have his gift
emphasize the fact “that friendly rela-
tions between great universities should
be thought of in terms of co-operative
scholarship rather than in the over-em-
Phasized field of intercollegiate athlet-
ics. ae hs Stanford sen :

Women Too Distracting

“Of course many of our students be-
came engaged on the voyage,” said Mrs.
P. M. Fogg, Dean of Women’ on the
Holland-American liner “Ryndam,” first
American co-educational floating uni-
versity, which recently docked in New
York after a seven months’ tour of the
world. “It was only a perfect natural
outgrowth of propinquity and attach-
ments formed during the trip. But
aside from this—or better, including
this—I can state quite positively that the
co-educational aspect of the cruise was
a success in every way.”

The second world tour, which will be-
gin in September, will not be co-educa-
tional, however. Dr. James Lough, Dean
of Men, stated that the girls provide
something of a. distraction on a long
cruise, and that it was rather difficult
to find proper accommodations for the
girl’ students on the field excursions.—
