LONDON CRITIC GIVES CONVOCATION SPEECH Percy Moore Turner Gives Illus trated Lecture in Temple Tuesday Morning. "Evolution of Painting During the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries" was discussed by Percy Moore Turner of London, England, at convocation Tuesday morning in the Temple the ater. He showed fifty slides illus trating his lecture .which took up Impressionism, Neo-Impression, the Intimists and along to Cezanne, touch ing on Gauguin and Van Gogh. Then he went on to the problem of the outcome of the teachings of Cezanne, Cubism and Futurism, and finally showed the evolution of Cubism, and traced the course through the leading men in art in the present day. One reason for the modern move ment in art, the speaker said, is that life conditions are different than they were in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, because it is no longer pos sible to maintain the high emotions of that age. The mpdern phase of art is as much a part of the up-make of life In the present day as the wireless. The modern art Is not a revolution, but an evolution on sound lines, air. Turner declared. "The spectator must endeavor to get himself Into a state of emotional re sponse to appreciate art," Mr. Turner said in discussing the emotional con dition and the individual manifesta tion of soul which cannot be curbed by the powers that be, as essential to art. Transmission of emotions and the quality of those emotions are what count in art, the speaker brought out, emphasizing that the subject of a pic ture Is only subsidiary. Much art has passed into oblivion because it was not emotional. Mr. Turner showed slides illustrat ing the change in art after the Revo lution, dealing almost entirely with French artists. He traced the differ ent movements and schools of art, from their beginnings to their in fluences and results. The principles of impressionism, stated by Mr. Turner, include a be lief that it is false to nature to fin ish every detail of a picture. Impres sionists sunnress local details, and re tain the structure as the whole In the center. Relation of tho planes, and color, played a great part In the Im pressionistic principles. Rather than mix colors, the lmpres Blonlsts believed In the Justaposition of elementary colors. A distance away tho colors fuse and produce a wonder ful effect., Dynamic lines representing the force or rush of the scene are char oipriRtlc of the futurist art. in which Mr. Turner believes there Is very lit tle future.

DeBaufre, the University's representative at the in auguration, October 14, as president of Lehigh University, of Charles Russ Richards, M. E., M. M. E., Eng. D., who left the engineering deanship at Illinois to take the Lehigh presi dency. Nebraska conferred the degree of Eng. D. upon the former dean ic its College of Engineering at the ded ication of the Agricultural Engineer ing Building in April, 1920.

The other principal speakers were Presi dent David Kinley of the University of Illinois and President E. G. Grace of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation. Presidents and representatives at tended from some thirty institutions. Xew York and Philadelphia papers carried extensive accounts of the ad dresses. In the course of his address President Richards said that Lehigh, for sixty years a teaching college, is now to embark upon the great work of engineering research. "While teaching is the obvious and appar ently the chief function of a univer sity, it should be its purpose to place scientific research In a position of equal importance with the work of instruction, for the world must largely depend upon it to extend the bound aries of knowledge and to show in application to the affairs of life."

Tells of Work at Bryn Mawr College. Miss Lucile Fulk, industrial secre tary of the city Y. W. C. A., told cf her industrial research work in con nection with Bryn Mawr College. Philadelphia, at Vespers Tuesday evening. Mary Brundage presided over the devotional service of hymn, scripture and ' prayer. , Dorothy Sprague sang. Miss Fulk with three other gir'.3 had charge of an investigation of home' work done in connection w ith tailoring. The investigation occupied about three months. According to Miss Kulk, the tailor shops in Phila delphia, as in other large cities, are small exclusive establishments con sisting of attractive show windows, reception rooms, fitting rooms and small work rooms. The real tailor ing done by the shops is farmed out to foreigners. Patrons are ignorant of this fact. "The garments made in this man ner are not protected from germs. They are not as sanitary as those made in factories. On visiting homes we found mostly Jews, Italians and Germans doing this home work. Most of them were young men trained as tailors in the old country," said Miss Fulk. '1 was surprised to find the work highly specialized. For instance, one man would do a vest, another a coat, and another the trousers. Vest mak ers were given $1.50 a rest. The work was almost entirely hand work. They were obliged to furnish their own gas for pressing, thread, and work room. Their homes were largely in tenement houses, poorly-lighted and ventilated. The front room of the home of the tailor, in many cases was used as the sewing room and the whole family worked there," stated Miss Fulk. "They averaged from six teen to eighteen vests a week. Their wape was not entirely profit, for be sides the expenses I have pointed out. the buttonholes are farmed out. and there are eight buttonholes on a vest." The coat makers were little better off, in Miss Fulk's opinion. A coat. made largely by hand brought in $5 or $6, and It was not possible to make more than five or six a week. Coat buttonholes too, had to be farmed out. Trouser makers were paid about $3 a pair. "In addition to the other expenses the home-workers had to go for their work which meant carfare. They had to take tho garments to be fit ted, and often had to wait long per iods during this process. They re ceived no fee for this loss of their time,'' went on Miss Fulk. "More over they had to consider and keep up with the styles. Wrongly stitched or late garments meant a loss of wage. These men said that they would gladly go into shops to do their work. When asked about unions they said they would go into them but they had no means of organization. They saw no one, talked with no one, and had no way of knowing of otters en gaged in their trade. When the Investigation was com pleted a report was made to the state commission of labor. As a- result licenses Is now required of home workers. Miss Fulk pointed out the difficulty there will be in enforcing this law, since the foreigners do not know of the laws and the employers will probably not tell them. Miss Fulk ended her talk 'with a few additional - Instances of home work. She emphasized throughout the unsanitary conditions nnder which inch work Is done. PROF. SIZE! TALKS TO F S ASTROilUI First of Two Illustrated Lectures Given Freshmen Group Yesterday. "ASTRONOMY IS A SCIENCE" Subject This Week Is "Solar System" Next Week Will Be "Starry Universe." The first of two illustrated lectures on astronomy was presented by Prof. C;. D. swezey of the Department of Astronomy Monday evening and Tues day inorninn. as a part of the regular freshman lecture course. "Astronomy is a science.' 'declared Prof. Swci'zey in opening his lecture, "that deals with magnitudes of time, space, velocity and temperature." The subject of Prof. Swezey-s lec ture this week was "The Solar Sys tem." Ho showed lantern slides that depicted the location of the solar sys tem in relation to the stars. The next slides pictured the solar system it self. To give the students some idea ot the size ot liie solar system Prof. Swezey presented a scale which ha had worked out using the city of Lon coin as the universe. On this scale the sun would be one yard In diameter. The four inner planets in the solar system, would on this scale be equal to garden peas and would be a city block away from the sun. Jupiter and Neptune would be as large as oranges, Uranus and Neptune as large as large as plums and these four planets would b revolving in orbits from four to twenty blocks distant. On this same scale the nearest star would be 13,000 miles away. Prof. Swezey described the sun, pointing out that it was a vaporized body composed of many of the same elements that make up the earth, but with a temperature so that these ele ments exist only in the form of vapor. The sun is a hundred times greater than the earth in diameter and a mil lion times greater in volume. The stars resemble the sun is composition and many astronomers believe that they too are centers of other solar sys tems. The moon was pictured by Prof. Swezey as being a cold dark body with no water or vegetable life on it The sun light strikes it just as it does the earth, but there is no blanket ot atmosphere or clouds to .hold the heat in, so that a large part of the time the temperature is hundreds of degrees below zero. In speaking of the time it took for the various planets to revolve around the sun. Trot. Swezey explained that planets such as Neptune which are further away from the sun than the earth, take a longer period of time to go around it. Pi-of. Swezey also explained the so lar eruptions, caused by the rising of hot valors from the interior of the sun, throwing particles from the sun out into the solar system. These erupiions are what cause the dark sin-pots" to appear on the tun. Concerning the velocity of the earth, the prctessor stated that the earth in its orbit traveled eighteen mik-s per second or thirty times as fast as a rifle bullet travels. The subject of Prof. Swezey's lec-i-e net week will be "The Starry ' Unix rse.
