Faculty is Engaged
In Varied Research

Many Books and Articles Are

Scheduled for Publication
In Near Future



DEAN WRITES HISTORY



Faculty answers to a questionnaire
sent out recently -by the Publication
Office show the members of the Bryn
Mawr academic staff engaged in re-
search on a wide variety of problems.
‘A number of books and. articles have
appeared this fall, and others will
be published in the near future.

Dean Manning heads the list with
her volume on British Colonial Gov-
ernment After the American Revo-
lution (1782-1820), the—writing of
which has occupied much of her spare
time during the past twelve years. It

‘is scheduled for release by the Yale

University Press, November 21.

A volume by Dr, Carpenter on The
Humanistic Value of Archaeology
was published in September by the
Harvard University Press. The book
is the fourth in the series of Martin
Classical Lectures, which are deliv-
ered annually at Oberlin College. Dr.
Carpenter is Charles Eliot Norton
Lecturer for the Archaeological In-
stitute of America, and Dr. Swindler
is editor-in-chief of the American
Journal of Archaeology.

Dr. Cadbury is preparing for the
publication of the annual catalogue of
George Fox:

One of the new odlaeiax of the En-
cyclopaedia of the Social Sciences,
now in press, contains an article by
Mrs. Forest on pre-school education.

In its current
(Publications of ‘the Modern Lan-

‘guage Association of America) runs

an article by M. Canu entitled “Lit-
terature et Geographie,” and another
by Miss Frank on “AOI in the Chan-
son de Roland.” ©

Dr. Max Diez’s College German,
which is to be issued by the Oxford
University Press, has already been
mentioned in the News. The Modern
Language Association is printing a
series of four articles by Dr, Diez on
Metapher and Marchengestalt (Fort-

* setzung), and an article entitled “The

Principle of the Dominant Metaphor
and Werther’ is scheduled to appear
in the Journal of English and Ger-
manic Philology.

In the Geology Department, Dr.

- Watson has nearly finished his mono-

graph, The Petrology of the San
Carlos Mountains, Tamaulipas, Mex-
ico, which will probably be issued this
winter by the University of Michi-
gan. Dr. Dryden has completed ‘the
manuscript fer his Geology of Charles
County, Maryland, and is_ half
through work on The Stratigraphy of
the Calvert Formation. Both will
appear as publications of the Mary-
land Geological Survey... Dr. Wyck-
off is doing the petrographic work for
a paper being prepared in collabora-
tion with Professor Meyerhoff, of
Smith College, on the geology of the
Arecibo district, Puerto Rico. The
New York Academy of Sciences will
be the publishers.

Dr. David’s edition of De Expug-
natione Lyxbonensi, which he has
prepared for the Columbia University
Records of Civilization series, is now

Student Industrial

» Miss Gladys Palmer, a teacher at
the Bryn Mawr Summer School, led
a discussion on the NRA at the first
meeting of. the -Student-Industrial
Group, held last Wednesday evening
in the Common Room. ;

Nobody, Miss Palmer declared, has
suffered so much from the depression
as the industrial worker. At the peak
of unemployment last May, 40 per
cent. of all those usually gainfully
employed in Philadelphia were with-
out jobs. Only a third of the popu-

\ lation was working as usual, The

Dr. Grenfell.Cé.ninents
On Labrador’s Wealth

Grenfell Mission is Trying to
Place Country on Sound

Economic Basis
STOCK IS EUROPEAN

In Goodhart Hall, Friday night, Sir
Wilfred. Grenfell, who has. given for-
ty-one years of his life to enriching
the life of the people of Laborador,
gavewan illustrated lecture on this
little-known coutry in an effort to
raise money for the Grenfell Associa-
tion.

Labrador.is on the continent of
North America, approximately oppo-
site England and Scotland, but much
colder-in- climate ‘because of currents
from the Arctic regions. That. it
once had a large population is prov-
ed by the fact that the early colon-
ists from England and France found
it inhabited by great numbers of
Mongolians, Eskimos and _ Indians.
This civilization was apparently de-
stroyed by the European fishermen
who fished in great numbers every
summer along the coast, and by the







fact that the natural resources of the|’

land were cruelly. wasted. Forest
fires laid waste the great wooded
tracts; there were no game preserves
and the fisheries were not conserved.
“Labrador was the pathway through
which Europe came to America,” and
the impoverished state of the present
inhabitants, many of them of English,
Scotch, French and _ [Irish _ stock,
points to the vandalism of the col-
onists who passed through on their
way south and west.

The Grenfell Association is endeav-
oring to bring the schools, hospitals
and churches of civilization to this
region, which is not far geographic-
ally from the centers of our modern
life, but which is totally ignorant of

Fashion Show Emphasizes
New Vogue for Elegance



The forecasts for winter weather
in women’s fashions are not s0
stormy as we were led to believe ear-
lier in the season from the influx of
grotesquely pointed hats and the Mae
West fad for feathers and ruffles, At
least Wanamaker’s Fashion Show,
held in the Common Room last Thurs-
day afternoon, presented no more in-
timidating aspects than the “big, bad
wolf” “motif in everything from
sports clothes to evening wraps.

The authorities on sports clothes,
we conservatives are pleased to note,
still include as acceptable the eminent-
ly practical twin sweater set and the
full cut swagger coat for general
wear. We have the added boon this
winter of imaginative design and col-
or in these as well as in costumes for
skiing and skating enthusiasts.

More formal wear also shows and
amiable whimsicality among the de-
signers; we are to romp Sunday
night in dresses of inconspicuous col-
or and line enhanced by decorative
treatment at the shoulder, neck, and
down the back. Satin flowers and
bows in constrasting color, and_sil-
ver buttons, spangles, and _ bugles
are used to gain an effect of ele-
gance.

Evening dresses, however, give
freest rein for originality. The de-
sioners run riot with velvets-and:sliv-
ver satins, and then cut them flatter-
ingly to emphasize _such~ glamorous
strains as Andalusian costume’ tra-
ditions and the. Marlene — Dietrich
mode. Clips and bows are again pop-
ular in formal fashions as decora-

tions for the neckline, which this year |'
is high in front, most frequently de-|°

scending from covered shoulder lines
to a low, squared decolletage. Then,
to top all of this, ingenious designers
give us choice between such fetching
evening wraps. as a bow cape of
black velvet and a Viennese wrap in
dark red velvet, carrying out the
“big, bad wolf” idea in its full cut
shoulders and adding a touch of medi-
eval demureness by attaching a

Art Club Gives Members
Real Practice in Drawing



(Especially Contributed by Ellen
Stone, ’36)

The Bryn Mawr Art Club origi-
nated in 1926 as a small group of
interested students who wanted to do
some practical work in drawing. and
painting. The club was successful
and managed to acquire an endow-
ment fund, an enfollment of forty
members, and an instructor.

This year, the Art Club has re-
turned to a more modest program.
The idea is to get some real practice
in drawing. The group meets every
Saturday morning in the basement
of the gym. So far, it has worked
from life, being fortunate in having
a model. This life drawing, and also
modelling, will be varied with draw-
ing‘ or painting from the head and
from a costumed model.

The attention of the Art Club has,
thus far, been concentrated on draw-
ing. It is felt, however, that work
in painting could also be accomplish-
ed, studies of the head, and sketch-
ing trips in the near vicinity.

Also, if any member has an inter-
est in any other branch of art such
as etching or block print work or
modellings, the club is ‘more than
willing to help. The supplies of the
club, at present, are limited, and it
is felt that for this year at least
members will have to furnish their
own equipment for work in oils or
etching.

As the Art Club has some capital,
besides the dues of the members, it
may seem contradictory that it should
not be eager to undertake more am-
bitious flights in the realm of art.
But, after all, college is not an art
school.: Those people at college, in-

terested enough in art to make time |

for it, are interested zealously, and
there is no better training for any
branch of work in art than actual
and continued practice in drawing.
The club hopes soon to be able to pro-
cure the criticism of an instructor, if
only for part time. It hopes to in-
clude both those who.want to contin-
ue and improve theit work in art,
and those who are interested but who
have had little or no experience.

To sum up: the Art Club wel-
comes new members, with real inter-
est the only qualification for member-
ship; and it welcomes new ideas. It
is trying to make possible real-work
and practice in the essentials of art
which are possible to get at college
and, at present, is not trying to fill
the place of a full time and many-
sided art school. _

Program for Industrialization Has Been 93.797, Successful; Soviet
Is Emerging From Isolation and Assuming Destined
Role of Gréat Power



DIPLOMACY AIMS AT MAINTENANCE OF PEACE



“Today the Soviet Union is emerg-
ing from the comparative isolation
to which it had been condemned by
-economic weakness and world hostil-
ity, and is assuming the role of a
great power,” declared Mrs. Vera
Micheles Dean, in her lecture which
followed that of Miss Fairchil Id on the
Foreign Policy of Soviet Russia in
the Period of the Five-Year. Plan.
Improvement in the agricultural sit-
uation. has.given- the Soviet. Govern-
ment greater freedom in the conduct
of international relations,

At the close of the war, Soviet
leaders were convinced that capital-
ism had reached the last. stages of
decay, and that a new world struggle
would soon arise, culminating in
world revolution. They consequently
welcomed all attempts at proletarian
revolts in neighboring states, notably
Germany and. Hungary, and-with the
aid of the Third (Communist) Inter-
national, established in Moscow in
1919, fostered Communism through-
out the world. Soviet championship
of warld revolution from 1917-21 was
not calculated to win the friendship
of capitalist states, which sought to
combat the menace-of Bolshevism by
subjecting Russia to a form of inter-
national quarantine.

By 1921, the Soviet government,
having curbed all efforts at civil war
and intervention, was ready to em-
bark on a far-reaching program of
economic reconstruction. Self-suffi-
ciency at that stage of Russia’s eco-
nomic development, however, could
have .been attained only by perpetu-
ation of a backward agrarian econ-
omy and indefinite postponement of
industrialization. Such a course was
opposed by Lenin, who advocated col-
laboration with capitalist states dur-
ing the reconstruction period, and
utilization of foreign capita] and for-
eign exports.

The Soviet decision to seek econom-
ic collaboration with the capitalist
world came at a propitious moment.
The Allies were willing to resume
economic relations with a country of-
fering an unlimited market for man-
ufactured goods; the Genoa and
Hague Conferences, of 1922, however,
failed to bear fruit. Russia then turn-
ed to Germany in 1922 and to Fascist
Italy in 1924, offering to espouse the
causé of the anti-Versailles powers.
Fearing that Germany would obtain
exclusive control of the Soviet mar-
ket, Great Britain then recognized
the Soviet Government in 1924, and
France, under a Radical Socialist
cabinet, followed suit in the same
year.

From 1925-1928, Germany definite-
ly turned its face away from the
East, and adopted Western orienta-
tion. The fiasco of Communist rev-
olution in China, which broke off re-
lations with the Soviet Union in
1927, diverted Soviet attention from
the Far East. Above all, the inau-
guration of the Five-Year Plan in
1928 required for its fulfillment a
shift of emphasis in Soviet foreign
policy from revolution to internal re-
construction; and made it more than
ever advisable to cultivate friendly
relations with capitalist states.

The. first effect of the Five-Year
Plan was to revive anti-Soviet sen-
timent in the Western world. The
capitalist states which in 1919 feared
the spread of Bolshevism, now ar-
gued that the Five-Year Plan might
flood world markets with “dumped”
goods -produced by “forced labor.”
The Soviet, on the other hand, be-
lieved that the capitalist world, un-
der the leadership of France and its
Eastern European allies, had launch-
ed a new plot against the Soviet
Union.

In 1933, the Soviet attitude. to
France underwent a radical change.

“Russia’s economic structure is
probably sounder today than\ever in
her history,” said Miss Mildred Fair-
child, Associate in Social Ecoriomy
and Social Research at Bryn Mawr
College, beginning her lecture on the
Economic Situation of Soviet Russia
at the End of the First Five-Year
Plan, in Goodhart Auditorium, Mon-
day night, November 13. She has
had‘no unemployment’ since 1930; she
has defaulted no payments. contract-

ed since October, 1917. Her period of |

experiment is now concluded; here-
after the economic. organization of
the Soviet Union will be relatively
stable.

In the year 1928, to the astonish-
ment and contempt of most of the
world, the. plan was undertaken. Sov-
iet Russia had but recently recov-
ered her pre-war status in productive
capacity; industry regained —equili-
brium during ‘the fiscal year, 1926-
27; agriculture had not entirely
reached its pre-war height. In 1928
the New Economic Policy, initiated
by Lenin in 1921, still held sway;
Stalin was not established as the lead-
er of the Communist party; predie-
tions of a Russian return.to capital-
ism were rife.

For the peasant, life had changed
little since Czarist days. i§ land-
lord had disappeared, and his hold-
ing become theoretically nationalized,
but his farm remained . subdivided
into narrow, often widely separated,
strips of land, his plough little more
than a wooden stick, his quarters a
tiny and overcrowded hut, where pov-
erty still lurked behind the door and
famine hovered constantly on the
horizon.

Out of 25 million peasant house-
holds, only 2.5 per cent. had adopted
the government project of collective
farming for
Economically, peasant agriculture had
made small advance, Industrial towns
needed more and more food; the threat
of famine from the limitations of
peasant cultivation loomed darkly
across their pathway, and Soviet pea-
sant agriculture continued to have
little of the necessary surplus.

Into this picture, not too happily
contemplated by the most enthusias-
tic member of the Communist Party,
was flung the Five-Year Plan. The

With the advent of quizzes-came the first realization that we are
coming more and more to be part of a great game of intellectual
“going to Jerusalem.” “The custom in the years gone by has been to
give quizzes to check up on the students to make sure that they have
been doing the work and grasping the meaning of the course. In
order to make such a survey it has been found advisable to base the
questions on the material stressed in class and on the more important
phases of the reading. This was the system that prevailed in the dim
and saered past. But the world is moving onward and far be it from
the college to be left behind. The entire trend of affairs in govern-
ment, finance, international affairs, society, and now in scholarship
would seem to be in the direction of a mutual system of deception.
The government has kept the people from finding out what is going
en in the country, the ‘bankers refuse to divulge their machinations
except for the benefit of the Senate (which never has had any fun
anyway) the diplomats do nothing that they have promised, the
debutantes never marry the people Walter Winchell says they will,
and now some of the professors have come to the conclusion that they
too must be modern.

Professors have always had a unique way of doing things, and
they might be expected, to find a novel way of joining the movement
away from enlightenment. They have not disappointed us. Instead
of the old quiz we now often find a paper in which not a word appears
concerning the subjects stressed in class and which demands of us
answers\on topics which we have never heard mentioned within the
college confines. Furthermore, many quiz papers are set with the
idea in view ‘that we all can write at least a book a minute, organize
the most obseure material instantaneously, echo our professors pet
opinions, and call freely upon our imaginations. At present the only
possible advantage in attending classes and doing the assigned reading
is to find out what\we will not be asked on the quiz. Those subjects
which seem important are those which we may safely ignore, while
the insignificant details come leaping at us from every corner of the
room. Cee

Tlie qualities which the present student needs to pass the current
type of quiz are an inherent dislike of work, a thorough-going knowl-
edge of life, gleaned from experience over the week-ends, and the abil-
ity to bluff furiously on paper at.a moment’s notice. No longer is there
any point in doing the work beeause no one cares about that part of
a course. The questions which are evolved for our pleasure are those
which the professors consider “amusing,” and they have very strange
senses of humor for people otherwise so. normal. What they consider
“amusing” is to give a course in Botany and then ask the students what

they know about philosophy, architecture, art, literature and Life.

thereby ignoring the material in six weeks notes and as much reading.
It is all very discouraging to the student who is still going along in
the belief that if she goes to class and does the\reading and uses her
intelligence in her approach to her subject she will stand high at the
final counting. Things have changed: classes and reading are minor
considerations in the minds of the professors as they sit making out a
quiz paper. The paper must have only one virtue—it must be “amus-
ing,” and the kind of a paper that amuses the faculty is one which the
students cannot answer unless they have taken courses in summer
school and kept quiet about them.

The question which arises in our mifds in connection with all this
is rather a simple one. Why, when the professors get so much pleasure

out of setting “amusing,” papers, don’t they take them themselves? It

might be “amusing” for them to seeif they could auswer any of the
questions.



_ Restraint Necessary

Every year the same complaints are heard concerning the amount

of work which the professors are asking of the students, and concerning
the relatives fairness or unfairness of the quizzes given on that work.
The rule that a unit course is equivalent to ten hours work a week and
that a half unit is equivalent to five hours ferk ‘has been restated at
the beginning of every academic year since the collége took over the
present unit system, and yet by the middle of November it has inevit-
ably fallen into disuse. This is not the result of any intention on the
part of the faeulty to overlook the students, ‘but of their preoceupa-
tion with the subject in hand rather than with the length of time it will

take the student to grasp it. The faculty forget that there are many
oe : items in a course which seem more than elementary to them yet supply

BALLAD FOR SALAD

The lettuce eater made a dive
In great tureens of green,
Natural, large, and twice as live
As any ever seen.

It coasted, bounded from her plate
Upon the table cloth,

She @re the hair upon her pate,
And righteously was wroth.

It was regained, and so the wench
Put in a loud aside:
“Will you guys pass the dressing,
French,
For thrice before I’ve tried!”

She got it, scanned the oily scum
Above the sour deep,

She passed it on with accent glum:
One look forbade a leap.

A bellow:
naise?”
It came—one jaundiced glob,
A remnant of ye ancient days,
A now spoiled, put-up job.

Her eyes alight at such an aventure,

fail to realize that no matter how interesting a book may be it still

takes a certain number of hours to read, and in their enthusiasm they

assign work out of all proportion to the time given their course.
Ilowever, the greatest believer in all that is good in human nature

could not remain completely blind to the fact that there exist profes-
sors who are given to assigning too much work because in their opinion
the average student does not do enough work to merit a diploma. They
have the feeling that the entire student body is trying to “put some-
thing over on them” and it is their intention to prove at the outset
that they are not going to put up with any conservation of energy in
their classes. They develop a mechanism which automatically assigns
too much work because they feel that the students won’t do it anyway
and that the more work they are responsible for the more their lack of
activity will be penalized. This is rather an unfatherly or unmotherly
attitude for them to take toward what have been described by poets
as<“their little lambs,” and we rise to suggest that we be lead some-
where other than to the slaughter.

There are a certain number of the inmates of Bryn Mawr who
never accomplish anything, and who spend their time complaining
about the amount of work they would have to do if they did any. To
them it is folly to lend an ear because they are charming, but useless,
However, when those who have done their work quietly in the past
join their voices to the general clamor for regulation of assignments it
seems that the time for protest has come. The mere fact that we should
be willing tg spend more than ten hours. a week on a course is not
sufficient grounds for increasing assignments, or for penalizing those
who do not do them. The.extra time we spend should be a matter be-
tween ourselves and the professor and he would greatly increase the
interest in the course if he showed a little agregable surprise at our
outbursts. . %

We have no desire to eriticize the teaching methods of the faculty,
for they know far-more-about the young than we do or ever will, but
there\is one great principle which we observed in connection with our
own youth and that is that it is much more pleasant to be directed into
the paths of righteousness than propelled there by the scruff of the
neck and, furthermore, the tendency to stay there is considerably
stronger in the first instance. If the professors would ask only the
standard amount of work they would get much better results and a
good deal of the bluffing and “chiselling” so current in a community
where the motto is “sauve qui peut” would disappear. The constant
crumbling which goes on does nothing to advance the cause of campus
peace, and in the case of the amount of work being assigned at the
‘moment, and the type\quiz being given on that work, the complaints
of the students are deserving of consideration. _ ; :

Score of 3-3 ;



SECOND TEAM DEFEATED



To the unusual accompaniment of
both bass and treble. cheers from the
sidelines, Bryn Mawr held Swarth-
more to a three-all- score at the end
of a closely fought game.

Bryn Mawr started out with a fast
offensive but’ was playing too hard
and, as a result, constant fumbling
and off-sides gave the ball to the
Swarthmore forwards, who rushed
the ball accurately and quickly into
the cage for the first goal. Bryn
Mawr then stiffened up and, although
play centered almost continually
around its. own cage, the excellent
work of the backfield prevented
Swarthmore from shooting a winning
goal.

Unfortunately, we cannot give as
much credit to the Varsity forwards.
They seemed to have even greater
difficulty than Swarthmore in stand-
ing up on the slippery field, while co-
ordination between the wings and the
inners was noticeably lacking. In the
second half, however, the ball was
being hit’ much more cleanly and ac-
curately, and the few times that the
forwards managed to get away usu-
ally resulted in a much-needed goal.

We were glad -to: see an improve-
ment in stickwork, slight though it
was, and can only wish that practice
along this line had started earlier
in the season. Another thing that

Russia Works for Peace



Continued from Page One '

The rapprochement of the two coun-
tries, marked by the conclusion of a

-non-aggression pact, was the result

of Russian fear that the expansion-
ist poiities of the German Nazis
might provoke another world war,
which would jeopardize Soviet eco-
nomic progress. The Anglo-Soviet
rift was healed in July, 1933, when
Great Britain raised its embargo on
Soviet goods, and the Soviet Govern-
ment released the two Britishers who

had received prison sentence.

Meanwhile the Soviet Union had
succeeded in. preserving neutrality in
the Far East, and had renewed dip-
lomatic relations with China: The
possibility of a new Far Eastern con-
flict provoked by Japan materially in-
creased the prospects of American
recognition. President Roosevelt’s
decision to renew relations with the
Soviet Union aftér sixteen years of
official non-intercourse did not come
as a surprise. Recognition had been
advocated: in many quarters, on the
ground that it would increase Ameri-
can exports to the Soviet Union and
act as a brake on Japanese aggres-
‘siveness in the Pacific.

“Soviet foreign policy, at first deep-
ly colored by dreams of world revo-
‘lution, is now firmly rooted in the

The period of the First Five-Year

1938. During that time, Soviet Rus-
sia has changed the nature of her an-
nual production from one predomi-

the value of her industrial production
has been more than trebled.

Of the heavy industries, whose out-

the most successful were electrifica-

Mrs. Dean Considers
_Territorial Problems

peer and Polish ABN Are
Danger Spots on Map\
of Europe
ANSCHLUSS IS. MENACE
2

The conference which a in the
Deanery, Tuesday afternoon, Novem-
ber 7, to discuss Political Aspects of
the Diplomatic Realignments in Eu-
rope, was opened by Mrs. Vera Mi-
cheles Dean with a general picture
of Europe’s territorial problems, cen-
tering chiefly on the two districts
where a European war might possi-
bly arise—the Polish Corridor and
Austria-Hungary.

As a'‘result of the Versailles Treaty
Germany lost one-eighth of her ter-
ritory and six millions of her popu-
lation. Her most vital loss came in
the surrender to Poland of West
Prussia and Posen, a strip of land
cutting off East Prussia from the
rest of Germany, and now universal-
ly known as the “Polish Corridor.”
For two reasons Germany resents ex-
tremely: the loss of this iand.

In. the first place, East Prussia
suffers economically; she is isolated
as a result of the Corridor, and. re-
mains a lone and not easily defensi-
ble Hitler outpost in the midst of
Polish territory. Secondly, the Pol-
ish Corridor offers perpetual symbol-
ic humiliation to all Germans, be-
cause they and their goods may be





transported across the Corridor with-

out duty only if they are enclosed in
sealed trains.

Danzig, the seaport of the Polish
' Corridor, though politically ranking as
a Free City under the protection of
the League of Nations, is, economic-
ally and diplomatically, also under
Polish control. This city, with a
population largely German, is at
present in a most precarious position
because of Polish economic plans.
Not content with acquiring control
of Danzig, Poland is now proceeding
to undermine its security by con-
structing, with the aid of French fi-
nances, a riva] port of her own, Gdy-
nia, through .which traffic from
Czecho-Slovakia and Southern Eu-
rope, as well as from the Corridor it-
self, may be diverted from Danzig to
Polish advantage. :

Hungary, as well as Germany, lost
much of her territory after the war,
large slices going to Czecho-Slovakia,
to Roumania, to Austria, and to Ju-
go-Slavia. As a result, she has nev-
er ceased to campaign for treaty-re-
vision, with the slogan, “No, no,
never,” will we abide by present set-
tlements.

Austria is reduced to a fragment
of her former self, with a population

of only six millions, a third of whom!

are concentrated in the capital, Vi-
enna. Although her soil is not par-
ticularly favorable for cultivation,
she is rapidly being compelled to
turn to agriculture for subsistence.
Her severest loss in land came with
the surrender of the South Tyrol to
Italy, whereby the latter has acquir-
ed a territory of great strategical
importance, since it includes the val-
uable Brenner Pass. The 250,000
Germans in this district, who have
been ruthlessly transformed into Ital-

ians, even down to their names, form |

one of the most troublesome national
minorities in Europe.

To Europe the danger of this re-
duced Austria is that she may be
brought to favor German Union. The
Treaty of Saint-Germain, forbidding
any steps direct or indirect to in-
fringe on Austrian independence,
clearly prohibits any such union, yet
the Hitler Government is very
anxious to increase its prestige by ab-
sorbing Austria, although Austria
herself is not desirous of Anschluss.

It is instructive to consider how
and why war might arise over the
Austrian question. While Germany
is not prepared to invade Austria
with an army, on the other hand it
is unlikely that she will be willing to
wait until the Austrian Nazi move-
ment becomes so powerful as to drive
the country into German Union.

What she might try to accomplish)

would be a union in effect though not
in deed. In that case, the rest of
Europe could not object on the

of the Saint-Germain Treaty.
" France and Italy, however, would
be thoroughly aroused at any hint
_ of Avustro-German . rapprochement.

1 cussions on the Little Entente.

Italy would be uneasy if Austria |
ceased to afford a buffer between her-
self and Germany}. for then Germany !
“would, soon or later, desire by fur-,
ther expansion to absorb the South |
Tyrol with its 250,000 Germans, at
present Italianized. France insists
on prohibition of the Anschluss, be-
cause she is determined to prevent
Germany’s Drang nach Osten, which
the acquisition of Austria would ad-
vance.

\Czecho-Slovakia would be most di-
rectly affected by any change in the
status of Austria, since, territorially,
she has more to lose than any other
country; and anything affecting
~Czecho-Slovakia would have reper-

If Germany and Austria were to
reach an economic understanding,
without actual\ union, the most that
other European, powers could do,
without resort to force, would be to
bring the matter up before the World
Court, from whose jurisdiction Ger-
many has now withdrawn herself.

If, to go further, Germany and
Austria were. actually \ united, the
best that the protesting’. European
powers could do, apart from war,
would be to apply the economic sanc-
tions of the League the minute that.
either state had recourse to armed
hostilities. It is, however, highly\ un-
likely that the various conflicting na-
tional interests of Europe could ever
bring themselves to combine in a sol-
id block for the application of sanc-
tions, and one country remaining neu-
tral nullifies the whole system.

There seems, therefore; little doubt
that either France or Italy would
be driven in the event of Austro-Ger-
man union to voice her protest in
military action. The provisions of

the advances which the twentieth cen-
tury has-made in regard to the com-
forts of life. Labrador has many
resources to be exploited. There has
been little exploration of the inte-
rior mines; a survey of the coastline
should be made and lighthouses put
up; and the rich flora deserves in-
vestigation. There are indeed many
geographical and natural history
questions to be answered.

The scenery of Labrador, which is
similar to that of Norway, might
draw numbers of tourists if suitable
transportation were to be provided.
What the Grenfell Association is try-
ing to do is to put the people on an
independent basis, so that they can
shift for themselves if the present
help were withdrawn. Difficulties of
transportation and. communication
have already been overcome. Ade-
quate medica] attention has been sup-
plied in the form of hospitals with
their staffs of attendants. Refuges
have been built for unwanted chil-
dren, and schools. are springing up
all over the region. More and more
parents are sending their children to
these schools as they see the splen-
did results, and the older. students
are being sent to schools in Canada
and the United States, where they can
get further technical training and
then return home to help in Labra-
dor. The Labrador schools them-
selves try to give inspiration as well
as current information, and special-
ize in\ courses of practical nature,
such as\cooking.

Players’ Club Offers Chance
To Acquire Stagé Experience





(Continued from Page Three)

Dramat Board and to facilitate the
production of plays. Previously only
a very small group really gained any
experience in acting or staging, and,
furthermore, this small group was
over-burdened with work which could
have been done through organized as-
sistance from the college.

The one-act plays, which are. put
on the Goodhart stage now and then,
l are given in order to provide more
opportunities for students to do work
on the stage, in whatever line they
choose, and also to test out new ideas
for future use in the bigger produc-
tions. -As it is impossible for every-
one who is interested in work in the
theatre to help on the fall and spring
threé-act plays, it provides a training
ground in which the less experienced
may try themselves out.

Players’ Club also provides an in-
telligent and interested audience for
the lectures on drama which are oc-
|easionally given at its teas, and an|
organization under whose auspices
outside theatrical groups can present!
plays to the college. Last year its;
own output. was fairly large: He-
lena’s Husband, The Saint’s Day.
and two Easter miracle plays, The
Deluge and the Sepulcrum. Outside}
of that purely college activity, there
were other offerings: . The Jitney
Players, a lecture on stage-lighting, |
and-a make-up class. In all these!
activities, any and all members of the!
‘college were cordially invited to par-|
ticipate and accepted the invitation’
in large numbers.

It should be clearly understood by
the college that all its members are
Narged to try out for parts and to co-
operate in producing all plays given!
under the auspices of the Players’ |
Club or Varsity Dramat.







The influence of the Chicago Cen-

ery of Labrador, including the great
pine forests and the waterfalls of the
interior, and the frozen snow-cover-
ed tracts along the coast. He de-
scribed how calm and quiet the sea
became just before it froze over, as
if it were covered with a heavy film
of oil, and how beautiful the icebergs
were with their reflections and trac-
eries of color, and how valuable for
their pools of fresh water.
of seals, with their black, and white
skins, swimming out to the ocean in
great herds once every seven years,
with the result that scores of them
drown. He spoke of .the schools of
cod which were often reported \to be
so thick as to check a boat in its

*| course, and of the great whales which

were washed ashore and died, not of
suffocation, but of starvation,

cause they were unable to partake
their hourly diet of hundreds of small
fish. These whales have become im-
portant in a medical way for their
secretions, and men actually go in-
side them to remove their endocrine
glands,—very much in the manner
of Jonah. He talked about the un-
wanted babies who are sent as dona-
tions to the nursing homes by way
of the mai] boats. This is a usual
procedure, as families of fifteen are

quite the customary thing. He told|

an entertaining story of a cow which
was taught to eat moss instead of
grass by sweetening it with molasses.

Labrador is indeed a land of pos-
sibility, but the co-operation of the
outside world is necessary to make

a “go” of what the Grenfell Associa- |

tion has started there. They have
built hospitals, schools and orphan-

ages, and among other things, taught!

gardening, weaving, and toy-making,

|yet even today many families are

hungry and cold because the outside
world cannot afford to buy the fish
and fur which they produce. The
Grenfell Association must continue
its work for some time yet. before
Labrador can be declared economic-
ally and socially stable, and able to
stand on its own feet, or the work

that has been already done will have|

gone for nought.

NYMPH ERRANT
(Reprinted from the London Times)
By ROMNEY BRENT, from the nov-
el by James Laver; lyrics by Cole

Porter and costumes designed by
Doris Zinkeisen.



Evangeline dances through Eu-
rope, now with one partner, now with
another, but the tale of her wandér-
ings is much less scandalous~ than
readers of Mr. Laver’s ‘amusing
chronicle might suppose. For in these
days, it seems, the heroine of a mu-
sical piece cannot afford to. take her
amatory adventures very seriously.
If she has any at all it must be mere-
ly to satisfy her desire to go about
the world and ‘see the sights. She is
the pivot on which all the gorgeous
scenery turns. Evangeline must be
the first heroine of this kind who
can find nobody to love her. Admir-
ers there are in plenty, but to them
she is no more than an attractive
business speculation. And every ad-
mirer is a fresh spectacle. The French
impresario, the Russian violinist
(though he loves the nymph well
enough to propose that she should die
in his arms), the Count of the Holy
Roman Empire, the Greek slave trad-
ern—these are not so much admirérs
as Neauville Sur Mer, the Carnival
at Venice, Athens by moonlight, the
stage of the ‘‘Folies. de Paris.” Each
is but a pretext for the stage to re-
volve, bringing round another exam-
ple of the decorative ingenuity of
Miss Doris Kinkeisen, and the audi-
ence is delighted, as wel] they may
be.

As well they may be, for Miss Ger-
trude- Lawrence, the Evangeline of
the piece, is not the actress to remain
merely pivotal, and she enlivens the
spectacular splendours of the stage
with as much graceful folly as any
of the more fortunate heroines: have



ever shown us... Her company. makes
the journey through Europe shorter.
As soon as she emerges from the glit-
tering crowd we .take the spectacle
for granted. She persuades us that
the adventurous nymph, fresh from
her “finishing school” at Lausanne
and on her way, it is understood, to
the home of a maideff aunt in North
Oxford, can lose lovers niore charm-
ingly than other women make them.
Her mischievousness is attractive and

her boredom amusing.

She makes her effects without a su-.
perfluous word or gesture, and she
rarely lets ‘a clumsily written piece
of dialogue tempt her to leave the
plane of artificiality on which the
play must stay if it is to live. Her
love song to the doctor, who persist-
ently regards her as a mere patient,
and the whimsical regret with which
she surrounds her heroic rescuer’s
lyrical: praise of her mother are, per-
haps, the most delightful things of
the evening. But her. performance
—which is nearly always a matter of
making bricks without straw—is a
continual delight.

Mr, Austin Trevor is the vivacious
French impresario, a great help to
the narrative, and Mr. Morton Sel-
‘ten’s roué is so good as to merit more
employment. The spectacle is en-
hanced and diversified by Eve’s grace-
ful contortionism (if that be not a
contradiction in terms), and the danc-
ing in various European styles of
Mr. Cochran’s Young Ladies. Mr.
Cole Porter’s lyrics are pointed, and
the music has style. But it is Miss
Lawrence who carries the spectacle
and the music to success.



The girls at Wellesley College have
decided not to speak to one another
on the campus. They say that speak-

ing to the same person several times
a day grows tiresome.

Franco-German Hate ‘
_Is\ Discussion’ Topic

Withdrawal From Disarmament '
Conference Enables Hitler
To Bargain

WAR DEBTS ARE BURDEN





Speaking in the Deanery Library,
Thursday, on The Economic Aspects
of Diplomatic Realignments in Eu-
rope, Mrs. Vera Dean said of the sit-
uation in regard to. disarmament,
“France and Germany are both at
present feeling extremely insecure;
both are waiting to see which will
jump first.”

Article Five of the Versailles
Treaty, which first raised the whole
issue of disarmament, limited Ger-
many’s army to a professional force
of 100;000 men, limited the manufac-
ture. of armaments and. prohibited
their importation or exportation, and
restricted both naval and air forces.
The object of these limitations’ was
not only to prevent Germany from
further aggression, but also, as was
stated in the Covenant of the»League
' of Nations, to encourage the disarm-
~ament of other nations. Consequent-
ly the failure of the Allies to achieve
any sort of disarmament is the fun-
damental reason for the -existence of
the present Disarmament Conference.

Germany stated as a reason for
withdrawing from the conference
that the Allies had neither disarm-
ed nor ceded her the right to rearm
to their level. Great Britain, repre-
sented at the conference by Sir John
. Simon—whose foreign policy has been
subjected to severe criticism at home
and abroad,—has drafted an eight-
year plan for disarmament. During
the first four years the European
army is to be transformed into mili-

tia, and a committee is to begin pele with wit sa teed cote
id

examination of ways and means of
disarmament. During the last four
years disarmament is to be definitely
considered and the Allies are, per-
haps, to be called upon to abolish
some armaments. This plan seemed
in no way beneficial to Germany. She
and other non-colonial countries ob-
jected to France’s amendment to the
plan, which stated that al] France’s
vast colonial army, as well as her
home mobile forces, should be exclud-
ed from this transformation. Ger-
many greatly fears a reintroduction
into Europe of France’s negroid
troops, which, she feels, contaminated
the German stock during the war.
France also succeeded, by another
amendment, in lengthening her mili-
tary conscription to an eight month
basis. Germany was angered by the
rejection on the part of the Allies of
her demand for a limited number of
defensive weapons, forbidden in the
Versailles Treaty.

Hitler is probably in a better po-|
sition. to threaten now -than— while

opinion she might suffer. Neverthe-
less, even if the Germans did gain
public opinion, its unreliability has
been proved by the Manchurian situ-
ation.
fiasco not only because of the violent
opposition of the German towns
along the Ruhr, but also because of

invasion.: This disapproval might
well be strengthened by any further
action on the part of the French.

Hitler must, however, gain some
practical result as a sop for the pas-
sionate youth in whom, contrary to}
the terms of the Versailles Treaty,
militarism has been inculcated from
childhood up. The outlet provided for
them by the persecution of unresist-
ing Jews proved tame and of brief
duration. This combustible element
may force his hand, arrest any. wise
attempt to secure concessions by
peaceful means, and precipitate a war
for which Germany is definitely un-
prepared. ' Hitlerism«may seem right
to the Germans, but it has gained no
friends abroad. The German isola-
tion “continues and grows in the
midst of possible achievements.” _

“Everybody wag at least a little
at fault in the crisis which terminat-
ed in war” in spite of the war guilt
clause, which provides that Germany
and her allies shall pay for all con-
sequences of the war. Reparations
and war debts are the worst heritage
left over by the war and the most
hurtful economically. Germany and
Austria, impoverished by the war be-
cause they had to rely during its en-
tirety on their own resources, have
had‘ to pay unproductive debts to rel-
atively prosperous Great Britain and
France, who in turn have had to pay
the still more prosperous United
States.

Through the Lausanne Conference
and largely because of the United
States’ agreement to reduce French
and Belgian war debts, Germany’s

they could not possibly be paid, were
greatly cut down. Because of her
lack of. gold she has been attempting
to pay by trade. Our tariffs, how-
ever, in spite of Secretary Hull’s ef-
forts at reduction, are still so high
as to prevent much importation from
any country. The whole tendency of
the NRA is, in fact, to keep out for-
eign trade. Germany and her allies
did attempt to pay debts by means of
loans till it was revealed that these
countries were living beyond their in-
comes. Austria has reduced herself
to complete beggary by piling up new
debts. to pay old. France suggested
that the League lend these countries
money, but this would involve bor-
rowing from. separate countries.
France herself would’loan money only

the building up of her armaments.

It was mistaken policy not to dis-
cuss the tariff situation and curren-
cy stabilization at the World Eco-
nomic Conference. Our failure to



Germany participated in the Disarm-
ament Conference. Since Italy also ;
is in great part isolated from disarm- |
ament transactions, it is probable
that Germany will use her as an in-|
termediary for future discussion with |
the Alliess* The whole objective ey
both Italy and Germany is to root!
up the conference from Geneva and)
either to carry it'to Berlin or Rome|
or to conduct a series of individual |
conferences between two or more |
powers. France and the United;
States would undoubtedly avoid out-
side discussion. Germany has little!
to offer, and if forbidden political is-;
sues entered the conversation, all the!
old territorial questions might be:
brought up.

The opinion has been wide-spread |
that France should have waged a pre-|
ventive war on Germany immediate-
ly after Germany’s withdrawal from
the Disarmament Conference. In}
1923 France made Germany’s failure
in--paying reparations a ground for
invading the Ruhr. It is well known

that France possesses “blood-curdling

documents” showing the extent to
which Germany has rearmed. The
difficulty of visiting factories and the
easy convertibility of many commer-
cia] machines, such as airplanes, into
instruments of warfare would seem
to prevent exact knowledge of this
subject. France has not, however,
published these documents.

Under her present government she
is not likely to take any measures
against Germany without the backing
of Great Britain and the United

live up to‘*our agreement about’ sta-
bilizing currency made France and
other countries obstinate about tar-
iffs. The Economic Conference did,
however, achieve something in the
way of international control of pro-
duction. As an example, Australia,
Canada, ‘the United States, arid Ar-
gentina, which were still growing
wheat in the quantity necessary only
during the war agreed to a definite
quota determined by exports and a
set contro] of acreage. In return the
smaller wheat producing countries
limited themselves to a quota and
established acreage control.



Professor Leonce Bert and Pro-
fessor Doriler in France discovered a
new poison gas against which gas
masks are powerless. They will only
give-the formula out to the govern-
ment in the event of war, in which
case it would take only a week ‘to
make all the gas required.

which is being issued. by the Harvard
University Press for the American
School of Classical Studies in Athens.
Dr. Bernheimer is writing a book on
the origin of Christianity, and an-
other on the origin of Christian ar-
tistic symbols.

The News has already described
the work which Dr. Broughton is do-
ing-on the geography of Asia Minor
in connection with an economic sur-
vey of the ancient Roman provinces
which is being directed by Professor
Tenney Frank, of Johns Hopkins. Dr:
Taylor has written an article on Ro-
man secular games, which is accept-
ed for publication in the American
Journal of Philology.- Mrs. Holland
co-operated on some of the details.

.Dr, Flexner has written a paper
on “The Intersection of Chains on a
Topological Manifold,’ which he will
read before the American Mathemati-
cal Society. An abstract is to be
published in the Bulletin of the
American Mathematical Society; a
full length paper will appear later.

Volume Four of The Collected Pa-
pers of Charles Sanders Peirce, which
Dr. Weiss is editing; will be issued
next week from the Harvard Univer-
sity Press. This fourth number of
the projected ten-volume edition. deals
Book I
contains hitherto unpublished papers
in symbolic logic, among which are
a number of signal contributions to
the subjects as they are now under-
stood; the second book contains a de-
tailed analysis of the nature of rea-
soning and a new system of logical
diagrams; Book II deals with some
fundamental’ theorems, cyclic arith-
metic, and the problem of the prior-
ity of ordinal and cardinal] numbers,
with introduction, footnotes, refer-
ences, and indices by Dr. Weiss.

The next volume, to be published
before Christmas,, contains Peirce’s
published and unpublished papers on
pragmatism, the philosophic doctrine
of which he was the founder and
which is perhaps the only philosophy
original with the United States,

The September issue of the Philo-

Dr. Weiss on “Alternative Logics.”
Science and Sanity has reprinted Dr.
Weiss’ article on “The Theory of
Types” as a special supplement.

Dr. Nahm has brought together in
cne volume al] the fragments of pre-
socratic philosophers and their estab-
lished Greek commentators. The col-
lection, which is being used in mime-
ographed form by the first year phil-
osophy classes, presents in a compact
edition material which has _ hitherto
been scattered in various texts. It
will be published later in book form.

Dr. Fenwick is revising, enlarging,
and almost completely rewriting his
textbook on international law, which
is widely used in colleges and univer-
sities throughout the country. The
revision is necessitated by the |devel-
opment since the World War of new
theories of international obligation
and by the great increase of interna-
tional “treaty-legislation,” which has
brought within the field numerous na-

THE COLLEGE NEWS





News of the New York Theatres
At present the feverish activity of

the past few weeks in the province}:

of the theatre has quieted down, but
it is only a momentary lull if we are
to place any faith in the announced
plans of the producers. Courtney
Burr has gone completely haywire
under the influence of the success of
Sailor, Beware, and is so afraid that,
contrary to his long established cus-
tom, he might not be completely broke
at the end of the season with at least
one failure on his hands, that he has
acquired two more plays and ‘plans
to have them on the boards soon so
they will have plenty of .time to be
expensive adventures. His first will
be All Good Americans, a play by
S. J. and Laura Perleman, in which
Hope Williams will cavort. She is
a@ very good person to advance Mr.
Burr’s ambitions, as‘she has not had
a hit in many moons. Her last was
the comedy, The Passing Present,
which was “not very funny” in the
words of Lady Diana Manners when
speaking to .Noel Coward about his
Private Lives. What Mr. Coward
answered is unfortunately not for
these chaste pages, but he didn’t come
out second best we can assure you.
The second of the plays is Amaca, a
play dealing with the infancy of the
automobile business in some vague
sort of way and it will have an all-
male cast.. Just what there is about
the infancy of the automobile that
fascinates Mr. Burr we don’t know.
Maybe it is his old leaning for the
things that fascinate only himself—
such as Norman Bel Geddes’s Hamlet.

sometime later in the season. It is
entitled Acropolis and is now being

lines. Gilbert Miller is another -pro-

intelligent to offer in criticism. . The
play says about all there is to. say
concerning the scope and power of
the theatre if its resources are em-
ployed by “ft intelligent playwright
such as Mordaunt Shairp. It is one
of the most moving plays that has
come to light for many years, and
without the ranting and raving of the
O’Neill type of tragedy it manages to
convey a greater realization of the
tragedy inherent in its situation than
any play we have ever _ seen.
Superbly acted by James Dale, Mr.
Dulcimer is much more of the evil
genius than any figure in current
drama, and the inevitability with
which the action unfolds about him
and Julian Dulcimer, the boy whom
he has ‘“created,”-to~be the comple-
ment of his personality, gives us a
very shaky feeling. There is no use
in attempting a HMterary review of
the play because it has not been done
well yet in the columns of “greater
men by far than we.” But suffice it
to say that the play has power, dig-
nity, emotion, and all the horror that



can be got into a civilized (too civi-
lized) two hours and a half.’ Those
who have heard that the play is about
a hitherto unmentioned situation, and
are intrigued by that aspect of it
should stay at home and read, for the
play demands an intelligent audience
and one which has outgrown the
childish trait of reading pornography
into every action and every word.

As for Let ’Em Eat Cake we can’t
say as much for that, even in its own
way, for it lacks many of the attrib-
utes of a really good satire. There
is little good .music, too much hark-
ing back to the laughs of Of Thee 1
Sing, and endless repetition of not
very funny themes. Furthermore,
the authors have gone astray in ex-
aggerating the pathetic side of Throt-
tlebottom until he has become almost
a tragic figure and one over whom
the audience is much more liable to
weep than laugh. The theme of sa-
tirizing the government is carried on,
but not very ably. The trouble with
the whole thing is that the authors
and the actors used up all the good
lines, wrote most of the good music,
and utilized all the best scenes in the
first of the series, and this produc-
tion has the general appearance ot
something thrown together at the last
moment on Sunday évening. They
have tried to blind: the spectators to
the fact that they were pretty hard
put to find anything to do on the
stage by costuming the entire cast
in all the gold braid and blue uni-
forms to be had, but it doesn’t fool
anybody—not even the actors. Let
’Em Eat Cake will do good business



because people are anxious to see how
it shapes up along-side of Of Thee
I Sing, but. we venture to. say.- that
they will-be’ disappointed,

The last bit of news is that Rachel _
Crother’s new comedy, Talent, will
go into rehearsals within a fortnight
under the direction of the author.
The leading role will be in hands of
Mady Christians, the German act-
ress, who was the one and only con-
tribution of the short-lived Divine
Drudge. The role requires an actress
who can sing as well as act, and ani-
mals such as that are very few and
far between, but Miss Christians has
proved herself to be well equipped
to handle what all the world hopes
will be one of Miss Crother’s best
plays.



Baylor University, at Waco, Tex-
as, has in its freshman class this

Mile. Gobert Speaks
On Travels in Sudan

Trip From Cairo to Khartoum
Was Arduous; Country Has
Colorful History .





BRITISH GOVERN WELL



Speaking under the auspices of the
French Club on Tuesday, November
7, in the.-Common Room, Mlle. Go-
‘bert gave an entertaining account,
illustrated ‘by her sown pictures, of
her long and arduous journey from
Cairo to Khartoum, the capital of
the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan.

One must of course visit the Pyra-
mids and the Sphinx before leaying
Cairo. Mlle.: Gobert’s . resourceful
dragoman explained to her that the
Sphinx’s nose was broken by a bullet
from the gun of Napoleon’s soldiers.
Painstakingly she told him in Eng-
lish—for at that time she knew no
Arabic—that he was mistaken, for
the Sphinx’s nose was broken. years
before Napoleon’s invasion, during
a religious excitement. The drago-
man reflected for a time and then an-
swered in English, “I suppose that
is true, but you see the English like
it better the other way.”

The trip south from Cairo was an
extremely dusty one. From the train
one could see rocks so carved by the
wind that they resembled abandoned
houses. At every station were crowds
of halfnaked begging children, crying

Gobert was greeted by a white-hair-
ed Englishman, who came. running
up to tell*her that the train would
be stopped for her at Kaboushya and
that she would be met there by the
government ass. This beast, it de-

Fifteen Years Ago |



Upon looking back to 1918 in the
News fiJes one discovers not only that
the United States was plunged into
War, but’ that Bryn Mawr College
was greatly interested in the epoch-
making events taking place in Eu-
rope, and had had its long-establish-
ed routine considerably upset by in-
ternational conditions.. We .who are
within the sacred portals during a
peaceful interval in the world’s his-
tory, and who know no interruptions
in the uneventful, well-regulated
round of college activities other than
Big May Day, can scarcely imagine
Bryn Mawr letting down the barriers
and joining actively with the outside
world in Red Cross work, the Liberty
Loan Drive, and all the o relief
movements. For those of us who had
still quite a reach to the age dis-
cretion fifteen: years ago, and heally
had no idea of war-time conditions,
it is especially interesting to look
back, and the looking-back is made
more interesting from the standpoint
of comparisons, if we select as our
focal point Bryn Mawr which we
know so well under the conditions of
our own day. :

In October, 1918, the Liberty Loan
Drive was being carried on at Bryn

The College News ran a War bul-
letin board in Taylor at the side of
Room D, on which clippings from the
morning papers were posted before
Chapel so that those who hadn’t had
time to read the papers themselves
could get clear, concise summaries of
the main events before class,

The students were organized into

Mile Gobert Speaks |

on Travels in Sudan|

-had ascended the Nile to the source.
In any case, after the fall of Rome,
all this region became Christian. Oily
Abbysinia, however, remains Chris-
tian today, for the king of Abyssinia |
is descended from the Queen of we
Sheba.

On an excursion from the village |
,of Seunar, a short distance from
Khartoum, Mlle. Gobert suffered a
-whole day. from thirst, for she had'
forgotten to drink water the night
before. To arrive at the great canal,
Mile. Gobert and her guide had to:
pass through an acacia forest swarm-
ing with little grey monkeys, that, by
forming chains, swing from tree to
-tree, and descend occasionally to feel
a sleeping traveler’s face or steal
‘his glasses. Here lions used to
abound, where now only termites
menace the traveler—or the resident,
for when the termites enter houses
there is nothing to do but leave. That
is why houses. in this district are
built up on poles sunk in little wells.
Termites have been known to eat all
a traveler’s clothes and. everything
but the nails in his shoes. They build
their habitations of the earth which
. they have chewed up and then dis-
gorged. This substance is so hard that
after it has been broken up by dyna-
mite, its dust makes excellent ten-
nis courts. At this canal, Mlle. Go-
-bert’s guide and her beast both
drank. She herself could not. It is
an unwritten law that whites do not
drink with their hands in the pres-
. ence of natives. Mlle. Gobert had to
wait for her drink until she got to
the station, where she imbibed at
least three quarts of water.

On coming out of this building
Mlle. Gobert was greeted by a crowd
of villagers carrying tight bouquets
of flowers. She learned from the sta-
tion-master that this manifestation





was to thank her for having saved
the eyesight of a little village girl
there the year before. She had heard
the child crying in a hut and, on en-
tering, found that the little girl was
suffering from a painful disease of
the eyes. After washing her eyes
with disinfectants, Mlle. Gobert gave
the child’s grandfather money enough
to take her to Wad Medani, where she
was cured.

Wad Medani itself is an interesting
village—so humid that even poor
people leave it during the rainy sea-
son. If one takes the boat to the
south along the White Nile from

“Khartoum, one sees not only the is-

lands of plants which still occasion-

| ally block up the river, but also great

bands of hippopotami sleeping in the
reeds or bathing in the river. Once
Mlle. Gobert saw the native Shilluk
hunters in. their canoes, triumphing
over the capture of a hippopotamus.
The most important Shilluk vil-
lage is Kodok, famed because of the
struggle over its possession be-

‘tween Marchand,.a young French

captain, who arrived there in 1895
with a handful of men, after miracu-
lously traversing more than half of
Africa, and Kitchener who, while the
young captain was on. his way, had
recaptured the Sudan for Egypt and
had no desire to give up the. western
route to the French. When the boat
passed Marchand’s ruined fort, ‘all
the English, the hunters and the: offi-
cials on the boat, everyone who knew
the history of the place, cried out,
“Vive Marchand!”

The Shilluks are very. graceful.
Mlle. Gobert was struck with the

beauty of a group of warriors whom|.

she saw one night at sunset dancing
on a hill-side. No one works. very

much in Shilluk land—there is no
need to. Money does not tempt the
Shilluks. They lead a simple life in

round straw hats. and bathe night
and morning. There is no tax to pay;
they produce almost all that they



consume—and trade for the rest.
Only jewelry, especially glittering
glass bracelets, lures-them:-——
