STUDY FIRST IS RULE FOR WOMEN Golleges in Fast Put Lessons -Before Society New York, Dec. T ® — Young women who wish to tread the prim- | rosc path of social entertainment at the expense of intellectual activities, | are frowned upon at some leading women’s colleges sast. Responding to a query, the heads of five institutions said that while social activities properly have a place in the i of their students, the official attitude is that intellec- tual pursuits should .constitute the main purpose of the student bodies. Social Life Second Tn general the heads of women's colleges agree with President Wil- liam Allan Neilson,” of Smith Col lege. He recently told the students | that Smith College was not going to be turned into “a center of engag- | ing social life with few duties give a kind of relish to a perpetual holiday” and asserted he was going to insist that the “intellectual life here shall be the main life, .even if we have to dispense with a large | number of admirable and, effective | persons.” f | The response of President Marion | F.dwards Park, of Bryn Mawr, was} in the form of an excerpt from her | opening address to the students| when she sald: “That Bryn Mawr| belleves fully in the importance 6f | out-of-the classroom hours is shown | by its insistence oneresidence away | from the rld.” The college, she | explained, gards itself first of all a place for instruction and ghe lite here must bear the right relation to such a direct alm and not be merely or pleasantly appropriate to desul- tory intellectual interestst or to a purpose frankly amusement seek- ing.” Presldent Henry N. MacCracken, of Vassar, sald that possibly because the college “has for many years| had so much stricter requirements as to residence than most of the other colleges for women” the problem of non-residence has not | been acute. Play Up Scholarship President Ellen F. Pendleton, of | Wellesley, said: “I - presume that | there are no colleges of first rank who are not seeking means to im- press upon the students ' that Col- | leges are primarily for the prosecu- tion of scholarship and that they are not designed for students who wish to make them headquarters for engaging in the social activities which naturally cluster about academic community.” Admitting it would be difficult “td divide into hours and minutes the time which should be spent in scho- time ~m‘lal pursuits,” Pre: dent Mary E. Wooley, of Mount Holyoke College, agreed with Dr. Neilson's attitude. of the lastic Glldersleeve, of sarnard College, said her college s a “rather different problem’ at Smith College. “As re already in New | aid, “we are not con- fronted with the difficulty of their | over the week-ends.

C, Dec. 7 (R— That dancing girls play a prominent role in the courts of many rulers of India's natlve states, is indicated by recent reports from Jubbulpore, where Maharajah Zarawal agreed to increase the pay of his court dancers thus ending a six months’ strike and relieving him of embarrassment by the failure of these entertainers to | perform at state ceremonies. ! Maharajah Zarawal is one of the scores of Indian princes who are real potentates in their native states, ruling with a free hand except in | cases of punishment for murder, which usually require confirmation by thes British authorities. Fifteen of these states are included in the | central provinces where Jubbulpore | is 10cated, therefore there are fif- | teen native potentates and fifteen | royal courta. | Important Commercial Center. | Commercially, Jubbulpore is one of the important inland cities of In- dia. The Great Britain Indian pen- insula and East Indian srailways meet here, linking the two largest | | | | | cities of the Empire—Bombay, six hundred and sixteen rhiles to the southwest and Calcutta, seven hun- | dred and cighty miles due east. | Branch lines of these railways, nar- | Princess Tarhata Kiram, daughter | of the Sultan of Sulu and a grad- uate of the University of Chicago, | | has lost her fight to live a’western | woman's life in the far cast. She has entered the harem of Datu Tahil, Sulu dignitary, and will be- | come his fourth or junior wife as soon as a divorce suit against the lady now enjoying that honor is gy completed. Four wives is the Sulu limit. Princess Tarhata has had to | glve up rolled hose, short skirts and bobbed hair, and must live in the | future as Sulu women have lived for {most desirable cities in the central | cooked i provinces, due to the fact that it is | rench dressing over all. hundreds of ycars. (WED. Old Fash! Crulle: | the crops row-gauge railroads and numerous | trade routes radiate from Jubbul- | pore, causing a_continuous flow of | produce from the outlying districts | into the city for local consumption, milling, and shipment to the coast for export to foreign markets. | Wheat fields along these roads are | unique. During the rainy season | the wheat-growing regions resemble | a series of shallow lakes. Banks are built around the fields to retain | the water which is not released until two weeks before the grain is sown. | By this method the farmer has no | weeds to fight; the cost of cultivat- | ing is decreased; and the success of is not in danger of a drought, since the ground holds suf- | ficient moisture, | Sccond Largest City in Provinecs. Jubbulpore is a well laid out eity | vith broad streetse and numerous | municipal gardens. Although it | lies slightly farther north of the equator than Tampico, Mexico, the | cool climate makes it one of the | |in the second more than 1800 feet above sea level. The Indlan city is the second largest in the provinces, with a pop ulation slightly less than Canton, Ohio. This includes the British and native soldiers garrisoned there in a large cantonment; for Jubbulpore is the headquarters of government military forces in this district. Most.of the working class of Jub- bulpore’'s inhabitants are employed in spinning, weaving, and flour mills and the shops of the Great In- dian Peninsula railway. Others are occupied in local handicrafts, such as brass-working, stone-cutting, and | the manufacture of images and or- | naments of marble and agate. The prisoners in the provincial jall in | Jubbulpore weave cloth and Scotch | and Kidderminster carpets for sale. Thugs One Confined There. The Thugs, a religious band of as- sassins and their ?escondan\s were | confined in Jubbulporg, after they had terrorized all India for more than 700 years. They worshiped Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruc- | tion, and murder for gain was a re- ligious duty. They won the confi- dence of the well-to-do wayfarer and sometimes accompanied or fo.- lowed their intended victim hundred of miles for the best opportunity to strangle him to death with a hand- kerchicf. Then the murderey would | perform rites in honor of the Thug | deity, and set aside a portion of the spoils for her. Owing to the reli- gious garb in which the Thugs | shrounded their activities and their thorough secret organization. the 4 Hindu and Mohammedan rulers were unable to suppress them. But the British finally succeeded, by a well-organized campaign, in round- |ing them up and unmasking their | system. British Scientist Says | John Bull is Pre-Saxon | London, Dec. 7. (AM—John Bull is not a Saxon at all, as generally sup- posed. John Bull, it seems, is sort | of a prehistoric Caucasian, | Sir Arthur Keith, a-famous an- | thropologist, has been coldly ex- amining this world known figure | who started on his path to fame in 1712, and concluded that the typical John Bull as scen by the cartoonist | is not in the least typical of English men. Said Sir Arthur to the Royal | Soclety of Medicine: | “Neither in face nor caloring is || John Bull a true Saxon, and to find | 8 his prototype it is necessary to go | far back to certain invaders edrly | millennium, B.
