Self-Gov. Tries New Plan
of Exam. in Rules for ’31

‘In an effort to eliminate the too
often recurring “I didn’t know” or “I
didn’t understand” of the transgressor,
the Executive Board of the Self-Gov-
ernment Association this year gave an
examination to the incoming class on
the rule book. The state of bliss aris-
ing from ignorance is far too liable to
be dangerous to the individual and
the college to allow it to exist in any
freshman mind. Hence, on a sultry
evening in Freshman Week some hun-
dred-odd members. of the Class of
1931 spent three-quarters of an hour
in Room F, filling examination books
with the rules in regard to smoking,
quiet hours, motoring and other use-
ful things to know.

The paper was made with an eye
to emphasizing .the rules which are
most important or with which we most
often come in contact. The Execu-
tive Board discovered that the exami-
nation served a double purpose: it not
only guaranteed that the freshmen
knew their rules, but it acted as a
severe test to the rule book, showing
whether our resolutions are well
worded, definite and to the point.
When more than a hundred bright
_ young minds are turned upon one
_ small green book, something is sure
to happen. One result was that weak-
nesses never suspected before were
. discovered, which we must remedy as
soon as possible.

The results of the.examination were
very satisfactory; the majority of the
Papers were good, some-very_ good
. indeed. The percentage of failure and
even of poor papers was small. Hence
the Executive Board can be sure that
at least the freshmen know and un-
derstand, the rules. And as well, the
Board“ftound much encouragement in
many answers to the last two q
tions, which show that the spirit e
sential to the system is understood
and appreciated by many of the new
members. If .only the Executive
Board one a sure. that 1930, 1929

’30 the Invincible Finds

Out Parade Song of ’31

An atmosphere of suppressed excite-
halls on Patade
and Sophomores

ment permeated the
Night. Freshmen
passed each other in corridors, with an
air of indifferent suspicion. It was evi-
dent that a storm was about to break,
but which one of the concerned phal-
anxes would survive with. still hoisted
banners was not quite definitely known.
the
hilarious as they gathered

However, Sophomore ranks were

skeptically
around the bonfire on the lower hockey
field. -

Finally, the band relieved the tension
with an enthusiastic rendering of “Pop
Goes the Weasel” and down the hill
marched the gallant Freshmen with
torches, shouting their battle cry as they
came. They sang it cheerfully but doubt-
fully and well they might have, for no
sooner had they formed aj\circle around
their pert rivals han it Sophomores
shouted back a_ disiffGisioningly correct
answer to their challenge. There was a
noticeable fall in the faces of the encircl-
ing Freshmen, but: nevertheless they took
their defeat with sportsmanlike good
humor. 1930 has a right to feel proud
since their song went undiscovered last
year. :

There followed a general migration to
Pem Arch where everyone prepared “to
lift her voice in songful praise.” Here
the Freshmen may have had occasion té
feel a bit of their fallen prestige sudden-
ly rejuvenated, for their singing was ad-
mirable and certainly surpassed the
Sophomores’, whose side-by-side song
seemed to dwindle into a series of gut-
tural murmurings at its final termination.

The Freshmen should not feel too
desolate. The words of their song ex-
pressed a certain amount of class pride:

“We are the class of ’31
We're singing our Parade Song
We hope you haven’t got it yet
Hooray for Bryn Mawr.”

A very good song, even though it had

the misfortune to “go wrong.”

Morning Chapel—Its Whys
and Wherefores Revealed

“The service has always been com-
pletely voluntary,” said President Park
in telling us.something of the necessity



and background of the present morning’

chapel in Monday morning, October 10.

In the beginning this daily service was |

completely in the spirit and practice of
the Friends. Little by little it fell into
the present form: reading the Bible, a
prayer, and a short talk either religious
or connected with matters of the day. At
first there was no singing, but Miss Park
said that when she was a senior the stu-
dents became so excitedeover the presi-
dential election that they could no longer
cofitain themselves in silence. One
memorable morning they burst out with
“My @ountry ’Tis of Thee” as President
Thomas came in the door: such was the
start of our daily hymn singing.
From this brief accotint of the begin-
nings of ‘morning chapel Miss Park went
on to tell us, of the important part it
plays in college life. There is great ad-
vantage in having one thing in which
everyone shares. Quite apart from the
pleasure of making “joyful noises unto
the Lord” there is a real necessity for
th daily meeting. The President and
Dean must have some channel of com-

_munication_with- the student_body, It is }

not possible to make all announcements
through pritted notices, if ‘not chapel
then some other gathering is necessary.
The administration neéds a chance. to
give the reasons that lie behind decisions
and rules. There is another question

sides that of administration explanations:
there is no other time for asking special
people to come and speak. This year

Paint and Beds!

Merion, that lucky hall, has come
“into a legacy, or rather has been
presented with a large sum oi
money. The source of the gift is
unknown, but the purpose for
which it is intended has been an-
nounced for all.to hear.. Soon we
will see Merion spick and span,
shining from top to bottom under
new paint, inside and out. And
what’s more. (as if cosmetics—
pardon, Paint—, were‘not enough)
new beds are to be. put in every

have any excuse if they lack in
“shining morning faces,” when

MAY DAY PRACTICE

Tuesdays Besides Spe-
cial Classes.







NO REQUIRED GYM.

Big May day year comes round again,
and even the first semester is to be used
as practice time, rather than, as has been
the previous custom, as a sort of marking
time interval before the hectic and strenu-
ous work of the second half of the year.
The rule of four athletic periods a week
has been abolished for the time being,
and two periods of May Day. practice
are now to be required of-everyone;hoc-
key is to be play ed as usual, however, and
the new work is so arranged ag not to
interfere with the afternoon playing. On
Tuesday of each week there will be gen-
eral pageant rehearsal, by halls; the
schedule is as follows:

5 P. M.—Rockefeller and Denbigh.

8 ‘P. M.—Pembroke West and Radnor.

9 P. M—Pembroke East and Merion.

If these hours should prove incon-
venient to the individual it will be possi-
ble to arrange, through the hall presi-
dents, to come with a different group;
however, the May Day Committee hopes
that this rearrangement will seldom be
necessary.

Special Classes Will Be Held.

Too, there will be special classes for
those interested in trying out for drama-
tic parts. Miss Leuba, who has had
training in this kind of work, will give
a kind of plastic dramatic exercise where-
by the individual will be taught correctly
to use her body, as well as her voice,
upon .the stage. These classes will be
held on Mondays and Thursdays at 8 and
9 o'clock. There will also be special
classes in Morris and Sword dancing, and’
in tum

On Thursday, October 13, there will be
trial damatic classes at 4, 5, 8, and 9
o’clock, and these, too, will be conducted
in hall groups. Mr. King, it is interest-
ing to note, has tested eyery member of






the present freshman class, and has found |

a good deal of promise and talent.

NEW BUILDINGS RISE

The, close of President Park's speech
in Chapel on October 5 summed up the



problem and danger confronting the pres- = ~

ent day college. After describing the
material side of the college, she said:

“Faculty, students, - buildings—a_ living °

thing or not? carefuly laid walls, care-
fully trained minds, catefully organized
work—something disintegrate, something
integrate? who can say this morning?
Probably no one should venture, but like

Kipling’s fairy tale hero whose ‘only .

excuse for attempting a hopeless task was
“A pot is a pot and I am the son of a
potter.” I can’t help noticing that “an
audience is an audience and I am the
son of a preacher.”

“How can such a changing community
as this be also an integrated community?
Can it add one by one the strength of its
individual members to form a_ single
strength? Only if the individuals—presi-
dent, dean, faculty, students, agree with
and respect its purposes and measure its

‘| performance by them, I have been’ think-

ing much of one of them this summer.
How to Meet Danger?

“The four years of training for which
the machinery of a college is set are of
course only one section in a large field,
four miles on the road out of the whole
forty or sixty or eighty, preceded and
followed by other miles, other training,
equally important or unimportant, But
because they occur where they do, in the
yeais betweeh sixteen and twenty-three—
years following and growing out of
adolescence and just preceding a time,
the middie* twenties, when a demand on
the adult individual for a proof of
capacity is almost certain to be made, they
have a kind of character of their own.
If they have ‘a special place in the de-
velopment of the individual and some-
what the same place in the development
of all individuals they can be generalized
and made a basis for discussion like the
other facts with which the college deals,
for instance that its students are Ameri-
cans and women. And further, the mo-
ment has its own problems. Mr. White-
head in his ‘Science and the Modern
World’ has pointed out for many of us
non-scientists what the by-product of the
last decades has been. Out of the de-

WORTHY OF HONOR
© The words “Bryn Mawr Sum-
mer School for Industrial Work-
ers” call up to most of us who
are here, in the winter a mental
picture of many girls infesting our
campus with knickers, Socialism,

bates; girls with such an eager
rdesire to learn and .learn and

tary conscience prick about our
own indifference, This picture,
like all mental pictures, is correct
as far as it goes, but, like all
mental ‘pictures, it does not show
everything. It does not show, for
instance, that what takes place
here for two months every sum-
mer is an experiment in the fields
both of education and labor.

That. the experiment has so far
been a success is most easily
proven by the fact that since the
school was established here six
years ago, three similar schools
have been founded. Sweetbriar, the
University of Wisconsin, and only
this summer, Columbia, have
opened their halls. to industrial

Communications,
The Counce News is not responsible
for opinions expressed in this column.

To the Editors of the Cotieck News:

A college deprived of its tradition
would lose much of its charm and attrac-
tion. But,surely the value of traditions,
like that#f other antiques, lies not merely
in that they are old, but also in that they
are pleasing or useful. Bryn Mawr is
not a college over-burdened with old
customs, and of those she has, the larger
part fulfill both of these qualifications.
But there are exceptions to this, we feel
that C. A. Reception is one of them. No
useful purpose is served by it, it,is dread-
ed by. shy freshmen, and looked forward
to with open boredom by the ate of
undergraduates.. Almost everyorle would
like to avoid it, and many do. Its period
of usefulness has passed with the passing
of class barriers and other superfluous
formalities. It seems high time for this
tradition to die gracefully of old age.

portraits—almost short stories—held to-.

pioneer ‘family in the Middle West. The
treatment of the theme, if not the theme
itself, is new. To be sure, the novel of
family history lias been done before, by
G. B. Stern and Rose Macauley, to

The Towers are not an exceptional

the feeling that it would be quite possi-

large family, and to make it interesting.
The characters are human, and the de-
velopment of events is quite natural.
There is humor in the book, but is is of
the quiet kind that runs all through
life, usually unperceived. In general
the men are better understood’ and so
presented in more life-like fashion than
the women. The interesting and appeal-

portant until the concluding chapter, In
this he sums up and reflects upon the
lives of his family.

‘ While the chief interest of the author
seems to be humanity, his descriptions
of the Wisconsin countryside are clear
and beautiful. But even these descrip-
tions are in many cases given a human
interpretation. For example,—

“The east -was covered .with tiny
a newcomer finds in a dismantled house.
The sun entered the house like such a
newcomer.”

The feeling for the city is not nearly
so strong, as exemplified by the descrip-
tions of London, which seem to lack re-
ality.

The style is simple, as befits the nar-
ration of family history teld in the
home. Yet, without giving the effect of
packed sentences, a great deal is implied
in a small space. The whole book is
intensely moving, and each character is
filled with an almost tragic significance.
It is excellent as a picture of life on a
poor, rocky farm, but even more strik-

family.

leading cities of Poland, and when he was
eight, he was heard by Anton Rubinstein,
who predicted a career of exceptional
brilliance for him. At the age of nine,
his first European: tour was arranged
and the boy was heard in Germany,
France, England and Scandinavia. Soon
after, in 1887, he appered_ for the first
time in the United States, giving forty

Number One

N 1824, two artists, Claude Alegny
and Phillipe Le Dieu “discovered”
the hamlet «.f Barbizon. Having lost
themselves in the Forest of Fontainebleu,
whither they had gone to sketch, they were
led to Barbizon bya shepherd. The beau-
ties of the place so impressed them that
they remained to paint, spreading the news
of their find among their artist friends.

on his own narrow field are the leaders
of laymen like, ourselves. They are our
keenest minds, We hear with attention
what they say and read what they write,
or we receive at second-hand and by
filtration a general impression of their
contribution to thought.:
knows only his ®wn area. If the scholar
can not now and in all probability can
never .again reach vantage points from
which he can «survey others’ ¢trritory
and measure his own, the danger to the
follower is clear.

“To meet the danger becomes a general
business. We must in no case curtail
the new knowledge which crowds in on
us from every laboratory and. study, but
we must be ready to weigh it, correlate it,
balance it. The layman must arm him-
self first with a determination to avoid
a single outlook and next to survey
new discoveries in thought with a mind
which is prepared to balance and weigh
and correlate which is not only accurate
but discerning.

“Training for this can hardly be given
except professionally. It needs the short-
cuts of laboratories. libraries and special-
ists. It needs in other words what the
college can give. Such an attempt to
establish the wise layman in his position
and to make his wisdom effective in it
can be seen in all experiments, like Mr.
Meiklejohn’s at Wisconsin, to break
down’ the barriers between courses, in all
plans for co-ordination and for work in
general fields. If we in our small way
‘can attack this difficulty, if it is agreed to
as a raison d’etre not only for the college
in general but in particular for the four
years of concentrated effort to which
Bryn Mawr is accustomed we shall not
only work together as a whole, faculty
and students, but we shall work with
effect for ourselves as individuals and
for the America in which we happen to
live.”

Summer Progress.

Miss Park began her speech, and
officially opened the forty-third college
years, saying:

“The longest holiday in the history of

sive new contents but a simple and ex-

a fern. The maximum opus, however, is
high for you to see. The Music Wing is
practically done and the Students’ Wing,
except for the Common Room. itself
which needs a floor and a door or two.
You will all look with pleasure not only
at the fine simple lines of the exterior and
the _magnificent hall with its five. spring-
ing “arches but also at the detail of carv-
ing in stone and wood, the studded doors
and their hinges which Mr. Samuel Yellin
has just finished. The stage begins to
look something as it will later. We can
all be reassured as to a rainy May Day.
Even the oxen, I think, can find room to
stand on its expanse. The organ is be-
ing set up in the Music room and the
time when Mr. Willoughby will play the
first Bach on it is not too far away. About
the middle of October the grading and
road-making is to begin with building
of the wall which will connect the hall
architecturally and separate it actually
from Rockefeller.”

Critic to Give Course. *
The English Department has _ been
very fortunate in obtaining Mr. Barrett
Clark to conduct the course in Play
Writing, which it is offering this year
for the first time.

Mr. Clark is on the Editorial board of
the Drama Review, for which he writes
reviews of the current. plays. Hs is also
Editor for Samuel French & Co. He
is the author of two books, Modern
Drama and Eugene O’Neil, which. may
be found in the new Book Room. This
last summer Mr. Clark gave a course in
Dramatic Criticism at Columbia, and
has lectured at other colleges on this
and the general subject of play-writing.

Contemporary American drama is Mr.
Clark’s. chief interest, for it is in this
country, he feels, that .progress in the
drama is being made. His lectures
promise to be stimulating to all, for his
contacts with the dramatic world is un-
usually strong.

who are required to visit their “little
sisters on “calling day,” which is Sun-

Look For New “fruths, * |

‘+ . " Says Dr. Jones
“It would be sal indeed ‘if we had
hever ‘sétn a sunrise and yet ‘more to.our
desolatjon,if we never could.” *
Such was the startling assertion of
Dr. Rufys Jones*in.his sermon given ih
the chapel on Surtday, October 9.
However, Said Pr. Jones, it - would
border upon, the apex of tragedy if we
were never, in the course of our. lives,
to discover any real truth, or new and
fresh experience. One of the «most
proniinent characteristics. of Sargent’s
portraits. of the prophets is that each
face “betrays an* attitude of anticipation;
of loooking in to the future—not ‘the
past—for the beginning. The prophets
were not satisfied to. let the coming of
Christ become to them a final event, the
crowning ideal of their religion, but
rather did they consider it the begin-
ning of a new humanity, a new crea-
tion, and a new order of ‘life.

Two Tendencies in Religion.
The two great immemorial tendencies

of religion are exemplary of the old and
new theories. First, the tendency of the
scribe, who attempts to make religion
consist of a “system of authoritative be-
liefs.” He is continually looking back,
Believing that the retirns of truth are
all in. And second, the tendency which
insists that religion is the perpetual rev-
elation of God to man and through man.
Phe beauty of God’s life must be un-
veiled and broken through. A contem-
porary of Milton ‘said: “The soul of
man is the’only book in which God con-
tinues to write the New Testament.” It
