SIX COLLEGES IN

‘TEACHING IN ENGLISH
“Six American colleges of the Near
East have joined under the Near East
College Association: to raise. an endow-
ment fund,” said Miss Kathryn Newell
Adams, President of Constantinople Cal-
lege, speaking in Wyndham on Thursday,
December 8. -_ want to get $15,
000,000, which iS@to “be ‘divided among
them according to.a.plan submitted by the
Board of Trustees .of .the Association,
Thesé colleges are doing a ‘very neces*
sary work; their scholarship ranks high,
even by comparison with American col-
leges, but they are very poorly endowed
and much in need of funds for their past
debts, professors’ salaries and equipment.”
The first and oldest of these colleges
is Bayreuth, which hag besides its col-
legiate course a very good medical col-
‘lege and a training school for nurses,
The British Government sends young
men there from Egypt to get their medical
degrees. It is an important post, and a

the Bosphorus, is another excellent col-
lege. _ It haga preparatory school for

Policy of the United ‘States
Should Be Made More
Definite.
~ “President Coolidge’s message to Con-
gress brought to light the ignorance
and feeling of disinterestedness which
seems to, be general throughout the coun-
try in regard to the question’ of the
Philippine Islands.”
..Mrs, Manning, speaking. in ‘Chapel on
Friday, December 9, somewhat obviated
our own ignorance by giving a concise
resuine of, the subject.
“The United States,” said Mrs. Mann-
ing: “Tost: her interest in the Philippines
early in the day “A Yale historian nas
noted that Roosevelt, on one of his
: Presidential tours, began talking about
the American policy in the Philippines,
“* but he found ‘the subject so unpopular
that he was forced to change the sub-
stance of his speech to an attack upon
' the trusts.
“After the Spanish Anierican War, the
United States found ‘herself in a peculiar
_ position. Cuba, she thought, had a right
to be: free from her cruel suppression
under Spanish rule.. Suddenly it was dis-
covered that the Philippines were also
struggling ' for’ ‘freedom.’ ‘The question
arose: shall we allow these twenty million
unexperienced. people to rule themselves,
or shall we hold: them subject to our own
better discretion in the art of administer-
ing government?
“On the one side stood the sutivions
perialists who believed that we’ should
give up the islands at once with out,more
ado. McKinley, on the other hand, ad-
vocated a civil government with an
American at its head.’ In 1907 the first

Review of Exhibit
Degas and Mary Cassatt Both
Realists of French
~ School.
(Specially contributed by M. Law-
rence, ’23, Instructor in History of Art.)
’ At the Wyndham exhibit, Degas and
Mary Cassatt are fittingly coupled’ to-
gether, as both belonged to the same
school of French impressionists and as
each admired the other’s work. .
Degas produced occasional etchings
and lithographs during his long life which
are only second in importance to his draw-
ings as showing the artist at work and
his untiring search for a fresh aspect of
reality. The dozen prints on exhibition
here show only one of ‘the two lifelong
preoccupations of the artist, the ballet
and the hunt. The former we see in the
Loge d’Avant and entirely characteristic
of Degas is the absence of all romance
or illusion. The ungainly view of the
stage over the ~back of a spectator, the
glare of the footlights and the tired and
forlorn dancers are such as appear. in
many of his paintings. Le \Blanchisseuses
exemplifies another . favorite motive.
Above ‘all, however, we. may have the
study of \the nude and here Degas’ tech-
nique, the lithograph, reproduces to per-
fection the.quality of, a crayon or ink
drawing. Le. Sortie du Bain in three
states, La Femme nue debout a sa.Toil-

Greek and Latin a Menace,
Thinks Bertrand Russell
After his lecture, the Hon. Bertrand
Russell, was asked a great many ques-
tions concerning education, America,
and religion,
The school which he has founded
for his own children opened after he
sailed, so he has had no opportunity to
observe it in action. It includes both
boys. and girls, because Mr. Russell
believes very firmly in co-education.,
Thy are to be taught only as much
Latin and Greek as they will need to
enter the universities, which, he said, is
too much, “In proportion as a people
know more dead}. languages, they write
worse.” Moderp languages should be
taught through conversation.
The formafteaching of science, said
Mr. Rusself, should begin when the
child is about eight, but a scientific
outlook should be encouraged from
the start. Children should be brought
up in an atmosphere of intelligent in-
quiry, and should be left to find out
things for themselves whenever pos-
sible, ‘with special stress on accuracy.
Mr.-Russell has had the opportunity
to observe co-education in the west
at the University of Wisconsin, where
oe saw a great deal of Dr, Meickeljohn.
- Mr. Russell feels that most eminent
people have a common desire to cause | |
misery. This is a result of their ex-
cessive morality. “All morality,” he
said, “is based on Sadism—the desire
to persecute*others.” The older gen-
eration in America is particularly Puri- |
tanical, because America consists of
people who emigrated, and the only
tradition they. could bring with them
was feligion. “Religion,” he define2

SONGS AND DANCES:
HAVE DISTINCTION
Foreign Students Amuse Col-
lege With a Varied
: Program.
SCOTCH REEI: SFARS
On Friday evening, December 9, the
foreign students in the college entertained
for the benefit of the Student Friendship
Fund. The music room in Goodhart Hall
was initiated in this delightful way, and,
despite the fact.of an extremely muddy
»| entry, no opening performance could have
demanded a larger audience.
The program’ was most successfully ar-
ranged by Cicely Hamilton, an English
graduate student, and, we may add, an
actress to. whose performance in the
‘Varsity play we are looking forward with
great expectation. The acts _ included
French, Scotch, German, Viennese and
English songs, as well as Polish, Scotch
and Spanish dances: Vaung Tsien Bang,
’30, gave a sketch of the life of a fifth
century Chinese lady, illustrating it very
cleverly and amusingly, up to the time
of the delightful lady’s wedding. Miss
Bang claimed ignorance of life beyond
this point.
“Miss Bryn Mawr” introduced the per-
formers, and her costume, as well as all
the others, was extremely well designed.
The bagpipes used by the vocal Scotch
band deserve special mention: they gave
a striking illusion of reality; although
they were made of nothing less domestic
than umbrellas and clothes hangers.
The German folk songs were accom-
panied by the guitar, which, we were told,
is the instrument of the German Youth
Movement. They were gayly bedecked
with ribbons, each of which is supposed
to be tied on by a friend of the musician.
Others of the songs: were also accom-
panied by the guitar, very delightfully
played by Miss Garvin, whose acting was
very much appreciated by the audience.
Folk Songs Met With Hilarity.
Several’ songs’ were dramatized most
effectively. In French, with colorful cos-
tunes, Mile. Ribes, Miss Hamilton, Miss
Garvin and Diebreiul, ’31, sang and acted,
their most popular selection being Joli
Tambour, Later they appeared in Eng-
lish guise, and interpreted some ran
ing folk songs, “The Coal Black Smyjth;’
“The Garden of Love” and others. The
audience joined with great hilarity into
In all of
these, the properties, ships, flowers,
mitres and crowns, were not the least of
the ‘attractions; they displayed an origin-
ality and talent on the part of some ‘un-
known artist.
Miss. Baillou’s songs, in the costume
oi an early nineteenth century Viennese
lady, and Miss Prokosch’s exceedingly
amusing interpretive dance were other
outstanding features of the program. The
entertainment as a whole was extremely
good, and the cider and ginger bread ‘men
which enlivened the intermission helped
to create the atmosphere of an informal
and spontaneous performance by the
foreign members of our community.
The people who took part in the per-
formance were Misses Baillou, Hof-
Geiger, Prokosch, Bang, ’30,
Ribes, Diebreiul, Patkaniowacka, de la
Vega, ’29, Shaw, Hope, Hamilton, Garvin
and MacFarlane... They were assisted by
Misses Hutcheson, Gehrig, Channing, 29,
three children from the-model school and:
a “vocal bagpipe” band.”
Flower Cards
The cast of Varsity Dramatics
and the Glee Club are generousty
' co-operating with the Bates House
Committee in asking their friends
to send them flower cards instead
of the usual orchids. The cards
will be on sale in: each hall this
week. The Bates Committee hopes
that everyone will take this) oppor-
tunity of serving “under two flags.”
No Repetition in Social
Work, Says M. Sauhders
Specially contributed by Marjorir
SAUNDERS, . ’28
usa becaune’ of the very number of
things we did and saw during July we
“Juniors” could draw. some universal and
fairly accurate ideas concerning ‘modern
social work. Perhaps one of the most
surprising things I observed was the de-
gree to which social work has become a
profession. As a general rule eighteen
months of training are required in fields |~
as different as health and law before a
| college graduate can be independently use-
ful and worth a salary, although, of
course, all social agencies welcome volun-
teers. :
The peculiarities of ‘social work as a
profession appear when you Compare it
with another, such as medicine, for in-
stance. Apparently a doctor observes in
his ,patient definite symptoms and_ has
definite orthodox treatment for each
symptom or group of symptoms. When
dealing with individuals as such, how-
ever, you can not make general rules.
As no two people. are ever identical, no
two treatments can be identical. The
most exciting side of social work, aside
from the fact that the worker may dis-
cover almost anything, is the fact that
there is no repetition, and the good work-
er keeps wide awake to prescribe new
and effective medicine for unexpected
combinations of symptoms. But here
again are more difficulties. Every indi-
vidual has rights with which no one may
tamper, and the worker must avoid pa-
ternalism. She must manage rather to
bring about re-education. The immedi-
ate difficulty may be an illegitimate child,
the fundamental one the attitude of a
proud family towards a daughter who
was less attractive thati her sisters. Pa-
ternalistic treatment in the form of ad-
monishing the mother and giving the
child proper care may merely clear the
way for a recurrence of the situation,
whereas acting as interpreter between the
family and their daughter, trying to give
them both a new slant on the situation,
may achieve a lasting end of the diffi-
culties.
Success of Social Worker Is is
One of the most common criticisms of
the social worker is the very fact that
she does not achieve lasting effect. This
criticism, as a rule, comes from some-
one who lacks first-hand information. Of
|course, sometimes a. worker may fail,
either through her own inadequacy or
the case itself, but the number of times
she is successful, and the degree to which
she is successful, as is testified in re-
corded ‘results and unrecorded, but not
unexpressed, gratitude is indisputable. .

Bertrand Russell D Describes So-
* Jution of Age-Old
. Quarrel.
MOTION IS RELATIVE
The old question of the relation be-
tween mind and matter, and_ their
reality or unreality, was the aspect of
Philosophy that the Hon. Bertrand
Russell took for his subject when he
spoke in Taylor Hall, Saturday, De-
cember 10,
Two positions may be taken on this
subject, the first, that mind is matter;
the second, that matter is mind. The
conflict between these two theories
has beén going on ever since Berkeley
questioned Descartes’ division between
mind and matter. TherAare these two
substances, Descartes said, and “the
essence of mind is to think,” while
“the essence of matter is to extend.”
Starting with the idea that wherever
there was extension there was matter,
“physics developed along curious lines,
Theories, such as the indestructibility
of matter, and the “billiard ball” con-
ception of it grew up.
People See Things Differently.
Berkeley, however, ‘questioned all
this; he said that things were sub-
jective, that no two people see, hear or
smell the same thing in the same way.
Every perception is private to the ob-
servér, and there are as many objects
as there are observers. What you per-
ceive is not matter (even if there jis
such a thing), but something in your
own head. This put the Physicist in a
dificult position, with his “billiard
ball” bits of matter, and for 200 years
the struggle between him, and the
metaphysician continued. The oppos-
ing camps have now been reconciled,
because great changes have taken
place in Physics since the time of
Newton, and in metaphysics since the
time of Berkeley,
Descartes’ two essences need analyzing;
the “billiard ball” theory of matter, that
no two things can be in the same place
at the same time, and so on, extends
back to the Great Atomists. It is not
right; but it seems so.
Newton’s theory of absolute motion
has been disputed by Einstein, who
has changed the technique of dealing
with it. One can no longer say that
one thing moves and another is fixed,
just because it seems so; there is even
doubt as to whether the train goes
past the station, or the station past the
train. It is merely a convention to re-

“There are two races in the world who-
for ages have received the brunt of jokes
and banter which other people have made
at their expense., They are the Jews and
the Scotch. So far as the Jews are con-
cerned, their willingness to take ‘any risk

THE FEMININE VICE
There i§.a superstition that the
modern girl is becoming masculine,
that she has cast ‘off most of her
typically girlish: foibles. However
well-founded this may be in gen-
eral, in one respect it is most de-
cidedly false. There is one femi-
nine vice that seems permanent;
traditional throughout the ages, it
seems in no danger of disappearing ;
yet it is a vice that the modern girl
canis very well do without. That
is the instinct to gossip.
Slander, scandal, rumor—a love
for these is still a a feminine char-
acteristic. Mere “Cattiness” pre-
dominates in most of our conversa-
tions.: Often it is quite harmless, as
well as quite useless, but when it
extends to an active damaging of
reputations it becomes pernicious.
“Slander,” said Fielding, “is a more
eruel weapon than the sword, -as
the wounds which the former gives
are always incurable.”
More vicious still is rumor; usu-
ally founded on little or nothing, a
story will grow by accumulation un-
til it assumes gigantic proportions.
A rumor that has some foundation
is bad enough, but one that is made
up out of whole cloth is far worse.

To the Editors of the Cor.eceE News:
It has been said that a gentleman may
do or say. almost anything he wishes
without incurring the danger of losing
caste. It is only the man whose posi-
tion is not perfectly sure that needs to
concern himself with conventions, with
what is being said. Of course the point
may be raised that a gentleman would not
wish to do anything dubious; neverthe-
less, it must be granted that he has
greater liberty than, the ordinary man.
We think that Bryn Mawr holds sueh a
position in the world—not only of col-
leges, but of affairs. Surély she can af-
ford to be somewhat indifferent to the
remarks of the general public. Consid-
ering her position, she is too sensitive.
At her very best, Mrs. Grundy is a
tiresome old female, to be tolerated with
amusement; when she interferes ‘with our

wise—she should be ignored.

PAID-UP PARTIES
Will the High Potentate of Chi-
cago turn purple and froth at the
mouth if we advocate the importa-
tion of another English fad? We
really are not particularly Anglo-
maniacal but these new “paid-up
parties,” originated in London, seem
to us a very admirable idea worthy
of adoption into our midst. A guest
at one of these parties described it
as “just a little friendly gathering to
celebrate the fact that all ‘install-
ments have been ‘paid on the furni-
ture and piano.” If. this scheme
were adopted here we should not
feel obliged to confine ourselves to
installments-paid parties. nel the
payment of all bills of any \kind
seems to us a worthy cause for cele-
bration. We feel particularly strong-
ly on the subject just now, as we
contemplate our growing pile of un-
settled accounts. We know that
paying these bills will be a long-
drawn-out and painful process.
Others about us are doubtless in the
same disagreeable boat as ourselves
and will be precisely as jubilant
when the last cheque is signed and
,on its way. Then why not cele-

Cissy would be a: poor, shy, insignifi-

social outcast, and all the ‘rest. Cynthia,
the, Most Attractive Senior, once spoke
‘kindly to her, and has won Cissy’s un-’
dying admiration. Subtitle: “If I could
‘anly make her my friend !”

manages to get in bad with everyone, the
night of the Prom arrives. Cissy has in-

all the most distinguished seniors to dance

ungraceful, but realistic, pose, but always
one which stimulates most strongly our
tactile sense.

prominent ‘painter, *Whistterisea? Eueo=
pean by adoption. Her work was largely
done in France and her training was
almost entirely there, although she started
her career at the Academy of Fine Arts
in Philadelphia, a fact for which one of
her French biographers finds it necessary |
to apologize: “Elle fait ses premiere
etudes a la Academie de Philadelphie
parce qu'il faut bien le plus souvent
commence d’apprendre ou I’on a com-
mence de vivre. Mais la veritable Acad-
emie ou elle c’est. formee c’est toute l’Eu-
rope.” Her first recognition came in
Paris where she exhibited some sixteen
years before'her first important exhibi-
tion in New York. Her biography is
almost entirely French and even today
her fame is greater in »Paris than at home.
Although recognized for many years for |
her oil paintings, her etchings were not
widely known until blindness prevented
her from continuing her art. It is these
that we have primarily at Wyndham and
they .are excellent examples of her both
as an etcher and an_artist..
Her technique of flat color and line
reminds us instantly of the Japanese, and
from them she probably got the sugge
tions for the figured patterns she fre-
Her ‘work is not imitative
of them, however, and the quality of her
line is quite different as it is in the more
sensitive and variable “bitten” line of the
etching instead of the broader and more
regular line of the block print. Her
treatment of hair is also quite her own.
In it alone she suggests the play of light,
loying especially the silky plows of very
dark hair.
Her types, of course, are French and]:
drawn solely from the women and chil-
dren around her. In each case the sub-
ject is completely occupied in her own
action, and charmingly oblivious of any
possible. spectator. Miss Cassatt’ is sel-
dom interested in the individual and often
sacrifices characterization to effects of
abrupt foreshortening. ..
The woman, sealing a letter.is;a.delight-
‘ful example of her “simplicity. and direct-
ness and her power to communicate her
mood. The two impressions of a woman
bathing show the ‘sweep and delicacy of
her line, but one: might cite many ex-

Stories ofBarbizon —
NuMBER Two
ILLET, probably best known of ‘“The
Barbizon Painters,’’ was always in finan-
dial difficulties. His friend Jacque discovered
him one morning about to light the studio fire
with a bundle of sketches. Jacque saved thesé -.
from destruction by purchasing them for a few:
francs. After Millet’s death, many who had’
befriended’ him realized handsome profits on
sketches and etchings given as collateral, or in
lieu of payment. Proofs that had been offered
‘by Millet early in his career, sold for six, seven
hundred... even a thousand francs. His Angelus,
for which no ‘purchaser could be found, when
ptinted in 1859, brought about $40,000. After
many changes of ownership its present possessor
obtained it for $160,000.

been faised, ‘till now it is the equivalent
of American colleges; three of our. girls
who graduated ‘last year are now in‘
America getting their M A.’s at Cornell,
Brown and Col mbia.
“It is not cult to get the girls to
work; college is a great privilege to
them, and it is much harder to.get them
interested in athletics. At first they hated
games;«but.now. they are becoming -as| »’-
fond of hockey, basketball and tennis as
American girls.
“There are 465 girls in the preparatory

pupils, from Stamboul and Constantinople

in English. Languages are second nature
to these girls of the Near East, and they
can learn enough English in a year. to

“Many speakers give talks at Con-

There are undergraduate organizations—
a glee club, choir, departmental clubs,
and the Dramatic Society, which is very
popular as ~ 6f the: students act
naturally.
“No religious training is ‘allowed by the
Turkish Government, so there are no
Bible classes except voluntary omes:“There
is a religious chapel service twice a week
and a Moslem service at the same time

“The Charity ae nhaticl ‘Society of
New Yorke felt the need of a new interest
"in, social work,” said M.. Saurtders,
Speaking in chapel: on Wedneiday, De-
cember 6. :
“Therefore, the idea of Junior’ Month
was: conceived: a member of the Junior
class. of several inearby. colleges shoyld}
be given the chance to observe the con-
* ditions in New York. We aii, gathered
at the University Club on July 3, and in
a few. days were all'very good friends. «
“The first day Miss Touseley took . us
down to.the C, O. S. offices, telling. us
thaf ve were there not“for training but
for observation.”In-the following ‘month’
we ‘spent two and. a thalf days a week
hearing lectutes and, three days in the
district office. We were given some
minor duties such as taking patients’ to
clinics. We. were taken to. see many in-
stitutions. such’ as the reformatory, the].
insane asylum, and the children’s hos-
pital.
' “As a special problem, I. was given
charge of a little girl named Gracie. She
was just out of a convent 4nd seemed
unable to keep any kind of a job. It
seemed to be part of my job to: go to
the places where Gracie had- unsitccess-
fully held a job and attempt to find out
from the typical “accented” New York
employer just why.she had proved al.
failure. This is only one of, the many
» interesting experiences which one may
have in connection with the work. °..
“Various outings and amusements were
planned for us during the course of the
time spent there. At the end a big picnic
crowned a month full of: the greatest
imaginable amount of real interest.”

dregs of society die. Why try to keep |
them afive?” The difficulty with this is
that chance in the form of accidents in
the street, or society in the form of sea-
sonal occupations may force into a tight
place a person .who would otherwise
shrink from the idea of accepting charity.
It is not necessarily the “dregs” of so-
ciety who accept charity, and if help is
withheld from those who need it they
will not eliminate themselves, but will
continue to grow unfit and anti-social,
thus playing a big part in lowering the
level of society. For me the greatest
experience from “Junior Month” was
the conviction that..from certain indi-
viduals who have the same interests, de-
sires and potentialities that I have, so-
ciety. makés great demands-without pro-
viding. sufficient margins. against | such
calamities as may come to anyone at any
time. So. social work looked at not with
the emotions, but with.the intellect, be-

than behavorism.” There .must be
ething of which -you are. conscious
in your head, while the consciousness,

relation between these two events.
Thinking Is Only Talk.
The second part of the theory,
that “the, essence of mind is to think,”
is also disputed by Watson. He says
tliat there isn’t any mind, that it is all
talk. Thinking consists of talking>to
yourself or to others, “you think with.
_ your larynx” as can be proved by try-
ing to think of a bubble: with your
mouth open. The emotions, too, are
only “visceral behavior.”
Another theory, the Psyctiology of
Configuration has been worked out by
two Germans, who maintain: that the
_ essential thing is the perception’ of a
~ pattern. You learn things by perceiv--
. ing patterns; Théy have made tests}
with animals to prove this. An inter-
esting thing about testing animals,|
said Mr. Russell, is that “they always:
