THE NATIONAL LEAGUE FOR THE PROMOTION OF THE CURRY METHODS OF EXPRESSION

[ocr errors]

At a special meeting of the Alumni Association of the School of Expression, held at the School studios Wednesday, August 17, 1921, Mrs. Anne Tillery Renshaw (class '10) spoke on the desirability of forming a national league for the promotion of the Curry methods of Expression open to all students, graduates and friends of the School. Mrs. Renshaw urged that the time had arrived for active propaganda in promotion of the School of Expression methods and the establishment of a permanent home for the School. She said that an organized effort for this purpose could and should be made, and expressed herself as willing and anxious to help "put it across. Mrs. Renshaw's ideas were warmly received by the members of the Alumni present, and the feeling was general that there was a place for a larger and more popular organization than the Alumni Association, necessarily limited to the graduates, could hope to become. Such an organization, it was thought, might be very useful in calling the attention of universities and schools to the work of the School of Expression, and in keeping alive the interest of our teachers everywhere in the home School; also in enlisting the interest of outsiders and securing support for the much-talked-of endowment.

Mrs. Anne Tillery Renshaw, A.B., General Culture Diploma, 1910, is a resident of Washington, D. C., where she is instructor of Public Speaking at George Washington University, and professor in the English department of the new Research University established by the Co-operative Federal Employees. During the war Mrs. Renshaw was in the efficiency service of the government. She was an active member of the National Woman's Party and at one time circulation manager of "The Suffragist," the party organ.

At a meeting of graduates and students held August 19, a National League for the Promotion of the Curry Methods of Expression was organized with headquarters at Washington, D. C. Mrs. Anne Tillery Renshaw was elected National Chairman, and the following were elected members of the Executive Committee:

John Carter Walker, M.A., Woodberry Forest, Va., trustee of the School of Expression; Mrs. Lewis R. Alderman, Teachers' Diploma, '02, Washington, D. C.; Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, Ph.D., Speaker's Diploma, '06, Washington, D.C.; Miss Ione Grind

rod, A.B., Teacher's Diploma, '21, Seattle, Washington, and Miss K. E. McGaffigan, Teacher's Diploma, '13, secretary.

Miss Mary Hollingsworth, of the School of Expression, was appointed national chairman of the Students' Membership Committee.

The following classification of members was adopted:

BUREAU OF EXPRESSION

The new Bureau of Expression, which has been opened recently in connection with the School of Expression for the placing of readers and speakers trained and endorsed by the School, is meeting with gratifying success. The acting manager is now on a trip through the southern states for the purpose of arranging reading and lecture dates with colleges and schools.

The Bureau has already arranged tours through the South and West the coming season for Mr. Edward Abner Thompson, M.A. (Bowdoin), who holds the Artistic Diploma of the School of Expression, and Miss Ethel Priscilla Potter, A.B. (Wellesley), a graduate of the School and a lecturer on its summer session staff. Both Miss Potter and Mr. Thompson are sincere and competent artists, well known for their work in the East and other parts of the country, who cannot fail to reflect credit on the School wherever they appear.

Miss Potter has read recently at Columbia University, the University of Georgia, Florida State College for Women, Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, and the New York Browning Society. Last season she made an extended tour through the South under the management of the School of Expression, and was enthusiastically received wherever she went.

Mr. Thompson's western trip last year, under the management of the School of Expression, was the best that he has ever had. He read at Taylor University, Lawrence College, University of Wisconsin, Iowa State College, and made an extended tour through Minnesota, under the direction of the University of Minnesota Extension and Lyceum Department. He also read in San Francisco and in several southern cities.

It is the aim of the Bureau of Expression to present to the public, trained platform artists who will endeavor to maintain the standards of the School in all their work; and to open to qualified students of the School of Expression opportunities for securing platform experience under the most favorable auspices.

The Bureau will conduct a Students' Department which will furnish readers, lecturers and programs of Studio Plays for an entire evening's entertainment to schools, colleges, churches, clubs and other organizations in Greater Boston.

VERSES

BY EDWIN MARKHAM

COURAGE ALL!

Old Gods, avaunt! The rosy East is waking
And in the dawn your shapes of clay are shaking:
Ye broke men's hearts, and now your own are breaking

Over all lands a winged hope is flying:

It goes without reproof, without replying:

It bears God's courage to the dulled and dying.

The rusted chain that bound the world is broken;
A new, strange star pricks down the night for token;
And the Great Word is waiting to be spoken!
