MISSION WORKER
HlTS0UT FRANKLY

The main feature of Tuesdays
chapel was stirring talk given by
Mr.. E. C.. Mercer Of New York City
who is at the present time conducting
a series of meetings or mission in
the Episcopal church. Rev. c. G. Fox
rector Of the Episcopal church of Val
ley City, Reverend Gallagher OF MI
not, and General Peake were also pres
ent at our chapel exercises.
Mr.. Mercer is forceful speaker and
this quality, added to his keen intel
lect, has made him man of influence
His extensive travel and his wide
range of experience has created for
him a profound interest in the well
fare of humanity. Mr.. Mercer en-
phasized the Importance of building
strong characters. The character OF
man will determine his success in life
Flashes of popularity does not always
speak out for strength of character.
In no place is there stronger demand
for men and women of staunch char
acter than in the school room.
Education, also, plays its part IN
the proper development of man. Spe;-
cializing in whatever line of work
chosen is an important factor.
The third point that was stressed
by Mr.. Mercer was that of health and
its Importance to the success of the
individual teacher. The direct way OF
saying facts very frankly, effectively:
and with the force Of what appeared
to be authority won for him hearty
applause from the student body:

SOME IMPRESSIONS
OF HER TEACHERS

Following the opening exercises
Thursday, Miss Mccarthy, Supervisor
of the Training School, gave an in
teresting talk regarding such men as
John Dewey, Thorndike, Whitley, Kill
patrick, McMurray and Kirkpatrick.
The difference between the ordinary
man and the man of genius usually lie
in the fact that the man of genius
has some extraordinary quality, but
lacks in some quality which is common
to the rest of us. A great artist often
lacks in moral sensibility and philos-
ophers are often careless. For IN
stance, John Dewey was known to
have given vey brilliant lecture,
without a collar and a necktie! John
Dewey is 81 years old and is the au-
thor Of some Of the books IN educa-
ton students have studied. His the
orv was absolute freedom for children,
so much, in fact, that his children
were often nuisances about the Uni
versity. As teacher, he is very logl-
cal and does the most logical kind OF
lecturing in his class rooms.
Her next topic was Thorndike, the
great psychologist. His age is AZ.
Thorndike is very hard to listen to,
but fortunately his assistant spends
her time explaining what Thorndlke
means. He has great respect for the
serious things of life and keen sense
Of humor.
Naomi Noteworthy, the only woman
of those mentioned, died at the age
of 80. She was a great lover of child
rem. very sympathetic and kindly. She
was very different from her co-worker
Miss Whitley, who was very keen, but
sarcastic and very unsympathetlc.
The latter possesses a remarkably
small head which is of much interest
to scientists.
Fitzpatrick, originator of the pro-
iect method, is very immaculate in
appearance-almost dainty looking.
He is brilliant teacher and very orig
inal in his manner Of presenting work.
Frank McMurray, aged So, has a
charming personality, young IN spirit;
He is the author of Chow to Study"
etc., and is very much like Fitzpatrick
in his methods.
DR.. E. A. Kirkpatrick, last Of the
men mentioned was very broad in his
interests. He has written books On
sociology, history, psychology, and
fundamentals of child study.
Miss McCarthy's remarks about
these men, their appearance, and gen.
eral character constituted a very in
teresting talk and was enjoyed by all.

MAY SINCLAIR

The subject OF Cne paper Tedu ~
Miss Villa NJ. 'Dush before the
Faculty Club April q was May Sin
clair one of the sModern Women Nov
elists." Her paper is printed below.
May Sinclair was born at Rosts-
ferry in Cheshire, England in the 18th
century, one girl among five boys. She
was educated at home, and at Ladies
College in Che1tenham. .ae. !,
She began early to write verse and
at twenty had written little sheat
of poems. Gladstone. as was his GUS
tom sent postcards Of well-meant but
badly-expressed encouragement.
Her first prose writing was an ar
ticle on metaphysics commissioned by
an American journal. Her first novel
"Audrey Craven" was published on
the half profits system. She thinks
very little of it now:
Miss Sinclair worships the hard. the
clear, the rugged. Every detail is pic.
tured clearly, so clearly that one could
easily recognize one of her characters
were he to meet one.
Her early writings are vey magma
tive, the characters are overdrawn,
even impossible in many instances:
She seemed to see things through all
sorts Of fantastic colors but in later
years she sees life as it really is and
She writes in feverish, high-ten-
sion manner that is really not un-
healthy. 1t is more like the overflow
ing of pent-up passion. Her books are
like escaping-steam that cannot be re-
pressed another instant. She has an
amazing knowledge Of sex psychology,
penetrating imagination and a re-
markable technique. Her critics mar
vel at her almost super human ability
to read the innost thoughts of men
as well as women.
She is an onloeker at the game OF
marriage which gives her the van
tage ground for observing the mis-
takes Of both players. "The Help
mate" castigates the woman, THE
Judgment of Eve" lashes the man, but
the whip always descends on the
guilty party. Her books are just the
Kind that one always can think OF
someone who ought to read them.
Miss Sinclair's works cannot be
considered as whole they refuse to
be considered as that, they have no
common denomination, vet if it were
necessary to prove that all the vol
umes that bear her signature have
really come from her pen, it could
easily be done by certain qualities OF
style such as phrasings Of descrip-
ton. and flashes of understanding
which lend distinctive character to
all her work. Z.
"The Tysons," "The Divine Fire.
and "The Helpmate" might have been
conceived by three different minds.
The first is a clever character study
Of an exceptional man and woman, q
much overdrawn story Of an i'll sort

frappe and each guest received a
dainty May basket filled with candy

The guests spent most enjoyable
evening and went away declaring the
party splendid success.
