BIRTHDAY AND YOURS
January 25-Elizabeth Powell Bond.
BY MARY MARSHALL

Elizabeth Powell Bond, first dean of
swarthmore College, was born seventy
FIVE years ago today at Clinton. N. Y.
Her parents were members OF the So

scended from the Nantucket Macys, who
had settled there in 1860. Her brother,
Aaron Powell, was for years editor Of
the "Antislavery Standard" and social
reformer.
When Elizabeth was fifteen she became
an assistant in the Friends School near
her home, and two years later was grad
uated from the State Normal School at
Albany, N. Y. For several years more
she taught and studied. and ~then she
opened a school OF her own in the house
of her parents, a school to which white
and black children, Roman Catholic and
Protestant. were admitted-a school of
true democratic character.
She was early interested in all sorts of
reform, and was an active temperance
worker. She spoke on antislavery and
woman's suffrage. In 1853 she Joined Dr.
Die Lewis normal class in gymnastics
and when Vassar College was opened in
1866 she became instructor in gymnastics
there.

and assisted him in editorial work In
which he was engaged. Mr.. Bond died
nine years later. and shortly after h4s
death she became resident speaker of the
Free Congregational Society. She per-
formed the social duties of pastor. and
prepared written sermons-but a man,
and not Mrs. Bond. delivered them.
In 1886 she became a matron of Swarth-
more College. When the title of matron
was changed. in 1891 TO that OF dean,
she became dean and remained in that
position until a few years ago.

Mrs Kebler yesterday, educators In
many of our large cities have begun to
work out plans by which the general
public may have some vocal training.
The Board of Education. which is always
alert to keep Washington abreast of the
times In educational matters, has given
every adult an opportunity to obtain
some training in this line OF work, by
permitting DR.. Cogswell to take charge
OF the work. We hope in time to be able
to get a well-trained chorus of a thou
sand voices, which will be available for
grand concerts and other community
celebrations"
