IN ITS PLANS FOR A CLOSER WORKING TOGETHER OF ALL EXECUTIVE BRANCHES O F THE FRATERNITY, II B oj> HOPES TO BRING ABOUT A MORE GENERAL KNOWLEDGE OF FRATERNITY POLICIES AS THEY ARE IN THE MAKING, AND THUS TO MAKE INCREASINGLY POSSIBLE THE INTELLIGENT CO-OPERATION O F ITS MEMBERS.

CONVENTION CHRONICLE
NUMBER 2
To the more than three hundred delegates, officers and visitors who attended the *Twenty-Fifth Biennial Convention, the odor of W3Im pine boughs will always bring back memories of the six days and nights at Charlevoix when the leaves on the trees hung as jf painted j when the walers of Pine Lake mirrored the shores; and the distant thunder promising relief in rain ever distant. But in spite of the heat wave such as had not been experienced in that vicinity for fifty years, a splendid sp irit prevailed. Everyone accepted the situation patiently and without complaint carried on the work of the 6rst convention since the close of the 'Va rld 'Va T.
The Grand Council reached Charlevoix for the annual meeting four days before the arrival of the li n If) Special" which pulled into the station on the morning of July I , bringing a train full of Pi Phis from almost every state in the Union.
Eighty-five of the visitors who came through Chicago were entertained at luncheon on July 30, at the Chicago College Club by the Chicago AlumnI!! Club and spent the afternoon playing bridge, sightseeing or shopping.
That same day, the Detroit Alumn", Club with headquarters at the Statler Hotel, entertained the convention Pi Phis at the Detroit Athletic Club. During the night the Pullmans from Detroit were attached to the "Special" so that almost everyone arrived at Charlevoix at the same time.
Upon reaching The Inn it was apparent that the management of the hotel, working under difficulty, was doing everything possible for our comfort. The men and women serving in the dining-rooms were especially efficient although working in the terrific heat

But before proceeding with further details of convention you must know that the most WOIldeTCu! experience of all was t'J have with us four of OUT Founders: Inez Smith -So ule and Fannie Whitenack-Libby who journeyed from Tacoma and Yakima, Washington, and the "B r o wnl ee sistcrs/' Clara Brownlee - Hutchins on and Emma Brownlee - Kilgore who came from Monmouth, ) 11 . Mrs. Hoyt, an 1. C. and a sister of Mrs. Soule, was also present This was the first convention to be attended by Mrs. Hutchinson since 1870.
The Founders were present at the sessions, sometimes giving advice and suggestions or expressing th ei r pleasure at being able to be with us. They were also in attendance at spreads until the wee hours of the morning-but they were the first ones up in the morning, greeting us in the dining -room with cheery smiles for our day's work. Just to know these women and to be with them gave us lasting inspiration. With the exception of the ,jFire-side Conference" the official program was as follows:

After the business of the first day, the two hours devoted to "Stunts" were most refreshin g . Vermont B and Pennsylvania r gave a clever skit telHng flow Colu11Jhus Discovered America . This was followed by Florida Alpha's portrayal of Way Down South in which good old negro dialect songs were prominent.
Every Maide,. showing the temptations of a college girl, was an oTiginal pantomime by Illinois H. And quite in contrast to it was the funny, villain-hero-stair-c1imbing-couple Lighthouse affair of Missouri A-plus Miss Plank. Texas A with the strong-man juggling act and Louisiana Alpha's burlesque won much applause.
The girls from Indiana displayed originality and considerable work on their playlet: The Winning of the Arrow !'laiden J in which The Arrow Girl song was a favorite. Next came the poems from Colorado B exceediugly wel1 done and praiseworthy and which wo ul d be printed here if space permitted.
An unexpected and most popular stunt was that of California r who distributed hundreds of oranges shipped from Los Angeles, wrapped in bearing greetings from that chapter.
The concluding nurobers were also from the far West. Iota Province gave a skit cal1ed The Modiste Shop which was made especially attractive with good costuroes and clever songs. Last, but by no means least, California B described in verse her trip to Charlevoix in a home-made Ford.

CONVENTION CHRONICLE
The Settlement School progyam the next evening was made interesting with five-minute talks by the members of the fraternity who are best acquainted with the establishment and growth of the SchooL These talks were supplemented by human interest stories showing the progress which the people of Gatlinburg have made since the School was founded eleven years ago. The illustrated description of Little Pigeon given by Mr. O. M. Schantz was a logical close to the program. There was also a good display of basketry, weaving and handicraft from the School.
Following the evening session the various provinces held spreads at spots scattered from the veranda at The Inn to the beach. Those gatherings were the inspiration for singing and general relaxation.
Sunday morning was left open for rest and recreation during which the entire convention was entertained by the Charlevoix Commercial Club with an automobile ride which afforded an opportunity to see glimpses of the shores of Lake Michigan, Pine Lake and the very beautiful country surrounding Charlevoix.
The quiet Sunday afternoon hour devoted to a vesper and memorial service to the sisters in the wine aJ'ld blue who have been taken by death from our ranks during the past three years was brought to a fitting climax when Evelyn Bishop sang The Siumb" Boat by the late Jessie L. Gaynor.
Although numerous baseball, tennis and swimming contests had been planned by the Athletic Director, Gladys Dixon, Wisconsin A, the heat prevented everything except the water festival which was held on the afternoon of the fourth at the Chicago Club pier. Miss Dixon and Roberta C. Bowen, Alpha Province President, gave a demonstration of the Red Cr oss life-saving work which was followed by the swimming events. Florence Lovern, 11linois E, won first places in the fifty-yard dash and in fonn diving; Zelle Whitmarsh, Missouri A, took first in form swimming; Margaret Little, Illinois E, placed first in fifty-yards for speed; and Kappa Province with Grace Ziegenfuss, California B , Margueretta Wardman, California r, Dorothy Rogers, California r, and Marjory Franklin, Arizona A, won the relay race.

Vieing in popularity with Louisiana A was Virginia A, the winner of the Balfour Memorial Cup awarded to the best all-around chapter. To select the most popular individuals in addition to our four Founders would be impossible, but the convention would not have been complete without Dr. May L. Keller, uPresident EM .-at Large"; Dr . Matzke who gave a wonderful paper on how to keep beautiful and whose personality radiated vitality; and the tiniest guest of all--our convention baby, Emily Maverick Miller, daughter of the Vice-president of Theta Province.
The crowded hours soon passed until suddenly we found ourselves falling into Hne for the grand march into the banquet hall. According to c ustom, the Grand Vice-president presided as toastmistress at the ba nquet and due to her originality, the D cz, garden blossomed into lingering fragrance. The nosegays presented by each speaker made a bouquet-the rar es t that our garden could supply. But the rarest of all was the rosemary for remembrance, contributed by our Founder, Mrs. Kilgore, who helped to plant the seeds in the II of> garden and who has watched them grow into maturity. The roll call of chapters prefaced the toasts which were as follows:

The program closed with the singing of the Ltn';.g Cup So.g led by Eta Province while the cups were passed and loyalty to the wine and blue was pledged anew.
After the banquet came the closing feature of the happy session, the presentation at Gonvention Hall of the II o:J) pageant written by Laurel Cissua, Indiana r , and produced by members or Delta Province.
The "II 4> Book" was a lo vely idea, reca lling step by step the history of the fraternity as the leaves of the book were turned showing life- size portraits. The music written and played by Miss Cissna was especially effective .
Following the adjournment of convention, the newly elected Grand Council held a joint session with the ret.iring members while the delegates and guests departed either to spend delightful days at Camp Pan hellenic, to join Mrs. Rugg's tour to Europe, or to return home-all carrying the message and inspiration of the days at Charlevoix.

OUR CONVENTION INITIATE
One of the most wonderful hours at convention was that spent in ou r model initiation and it was made all the more wouderful by such a splendid initiate. Because of her high ideals, cultu re and noble
L MATTHEWS woman hood, Mary L. Matthews was invited to join Pi Beta Phi through specia l permission of the Grand Council.
In Convention Hall with three hundred Pi Phis as witn esses, Miss Matthews became a member of Indiana A, being initiated by the Grand Council assisted by the loca I cha pte r.
Mary L. Matthews whose home IS in Cambridge City: Indiana, graduated from the Minnesota Schoo l of Agriculture in 19 00 and from the University of Minnesota in 1904. Two years lat er she became instructor in sewing at the Lafayette Indu stria l School and after three years there returned to the University of Minnesota for a year as instructor in domestic art. From she did extension work in home economics for Purdue University at Lafayette, Indiana, and in ]912 was elected Head of the Department of Home Economics at that university, which position she now holds.
Her membership in the following clubs and organi7.ations shows the versatility, efficiency and broad vision of our convention initiate: member of council of American Home Economics Association, member of home economics council of Indiana State Tea ch ers' Association , ationa! Society of Vocational Education, League of Women Voters , president of the Lafayette Branch of the American Association of University Women, member of the executive committee of the Indiana Federation of Clubs, Lafayette chapter of Woman's Pan-
MAltY
hellenic Club, and a member of 0 N, home economics ho-noTary fraternity.
In addition to her busy life in the classroom and in club work, Miss Matthews has written a book entitled uElementary Home Economics'f which is being used in the schools of many states as a tex.tbook. At present she is writing two other books on home economics subjects.
Tbose who were privileged to meet Miss Matthews at Charlevoix with her poise, her charming manner, and her eyes and face alight with happiness, felt that she would bring great honor to Pi Beta Phi.
THE CONVENTION DAILY BULLE.TIN
The C on'llention Daily issued each morning of the session was in reality a cardboard bulletin. A Corona, gummed lahels, drawing ink and paste were substitutes for the printer's press and under the direction of the Assistan,t ARROW Editor, fifteen volunteer "cubs" reported the daily happenings. Mr. Orpheus Schantz, a IT <l> husband, contributed numerous drawings which# added to the attractiveness of the sheet.
The artists' efforts which appeared at various times were: I(What a Man Sees of Convention/' "LOST-One Suit Case," liNear East," "Listening for Convention Notes," "Sophie P Woodman Ridjng Muleback Through Glacier National Park," "California to Charlevoix-Some Stunt," "The Albania," liThe Balfour Memorial Cupt" and silhouettes of IIPres. EM.-at Large," "The Bobbed Head ," and IlLouisiana 1\ on a Chicago Bus."
In addition tp the Tegular reviews of events at Convention Hall, society items, jokes and jingles were features of the Bulletin-oh, yes-there were also many false weather reports I

It is a very great pleasure for me to talk and think with you for a short time at this quiet afternoon meeting before we begin the im-
portant work of next week. I t is good to think of what things are of most value in order to be guided aright in making decisions as we plan our work for next year. lVe can thus arrive, perhaps, at some idea of principles that should guide us as a fraternity and as individuals in carrying on the work, and especially in living, in just living up to the vows we have all taken as wearers of the winged arrow. We need the inspiration at this hour of such a woman as Miss Honsinger, whom we had hoped to have here today. She is one who has lived close to the realities of life and has had the spiritual vision to usee into the heart of things." For it is not the apparent or the surface aspect of things that gives the true
KAn B MIl.uJt
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
measure of worth. We never have. found a truer proverb than the time-honored "All is not gold that glitters!'
We have, then, to decide what things are of permanent good to the whole fraternity and what will help us as individuals to translate into character the ideals of n B fit. Never was there a time when organizations and individuals more needed conc rete interpretation of general truths. The ideals of ' OUI Founders, that I cal! the truths of our fraternity, are unchanged, but there is no gainsaying the fact that the college girl today} as she tries to realize those ideals, has many, many specific problems facing her that were undreamt of fifty years ago. Our Founders solved their problems in such a way as to give us a heritage of beautiful, noble characters. Shall we not resolve here today to do the same for those who come after us?
In the stress of war it was not difficult for most of us to select the right things and to place values justly. But when issues are not, morally, so clearly defined, we often find ourselves hesitant, and then inclined to follow the path of least resistance, usually the one that our pleasures dictate, without stopping to think. It is the obligation to think, to think scientifically, that our fraternity creed and our college education impose upon us. If this education is meeting its obligation, it is teaching us how to do that. You will remember Dewey's steps in the process of scientific thinking given in his invalua!>le linle book, How To Think. The final step, he says, in reaching a conclusion is that of judging or of evaluating the worth of the various items in the array of facts one has gathered. The success of the conclusion depends finally upon one's power to determine 'Values.
It is in just this matter of judging values- that we need all the vision and inspiration we can get. I f we can but see the difference between the paste and the real, the transitory pleasing and the permanently satisfying! I have the faith in all wearers of the wine and the blue to believe that they will choose rightly. What gives value? We can find definitions of the word 'Value, by which we learn that it is the property of a thing which makes it useful and important. It is helpful also to know that it is cognate with valor and valiant. Things are often useful and important, though, according to circumstances. One man had the right sense of values when he volunteered for service overseas; another, when he stayed at home. Life itself, mere physical living, is held of priceless value, but the war taught us
VALUES
that life can be of less significance than right. To the college student, learning " ow to solve problems rightly and right eously, some one has said, is of more value than merely getting the right answers, but in the business world, correct answers count for success. Here it is a matter of emphasis; the methods and the results and not antagonistic goals.
•
In addition to this sort of difference, that of training and accom · plishment, is another differing sense of values that we see constantly in those around us in college and in the world outside. One girl considers popularity the sum,num bonum of college life ; anothe r makes the <f> B K key her goal. Neither ambition is to be decried, and yet one may achieve either of these desirable results . and be unwortllY of OllT ideals.
Two very striking instances of a differing sense of values is uppermost in my mind just now. :Madame Marie Curie has been in our country for some weeks , receiving honors of all sorts. Ten colleges and universities cOllferred degrees upon her. President Harding presented her with the gram of radium that the women of the United States, the college women, particularl)', had bought for her. This small, modest, cultivated Polish - Fren ch woman is honored the world over, and will be blessed by thousands yet unnumbered. What is the reason for this appreciation? She chose something of value. She chose to give herself to an arduous, dangerous resear ch that should result in relieving suffering, to a service fOT others. She has suffered in health and has been handicapped by poverty. No one, however, today, or in the days to come will think that she had a mistaken sense of values. We do not have such unstinted co mmendation for our own sense of values, however, for we have given only a little over $100 ,000 for the contents of the small box whose key she wears so proudly.
Many times this sum was given recently to two boxers in Jersey City. Many, many times this sum changed hands in betting circles . It is true that the development of physical strength has a value, great value; amusement and entertainment have a rightful place in our lives; but will you say that there was no nlist:lken sense of values 'displayed by the two fighters and by the crowds of onlookers 1 The thrilI, the excitement of the .fight I A sportsman's proposition, some say . The thrill, the joy of discovery of a cure for one of the most dreadful diseases of the world I A sportsman's game, others say, to risk one's life in seeking to save others.
THE ARROW OF Pi BETA PHi
We cannot aU, even if we would, become Madame Curies, but as college girls, we can choose among the various things before us those that make for the rounded womanhood so badly needed today.
Constantly we hear that we should prepare for service. I would Dot deny that. r would emphasize it, rather. But there is another goal for the college girl that r seldom hear mentioned, perhaps becauSe the word has been so misused that to some it smacks of artificiality. It is, however, one of the finest words in the language when rightly understood and used. Matthew Arnold was not afraid of it and neither are some of our most scholarly men of today. Is there anything more important for college girls to seek, in order that they may give their fullest and richest servi ce to others when they leave college , than their own pe rsonal culture? Take this word with you, think of its meaning, its implications; then I know that you will agree with me that it is in college particularly that the development must come of one's utmost capacities, refinement one's thoughts and actions, and the assimilation of one'.g knowledge constituting culture. Make leisure for the quiet that this growth demands. It cannot be acquired at the rate of so many points a semester; it cannot be definitely assayed. ft is as intangible as the fragrance of the fl ower or the beauty of the sunset, and it is no less real. The service, then, that you can give the world in response to its many demands upon you will be of much greate r value if the actual deeds you perform are permeated by the beau ty and grace that are the outward reflection of the inner culture.

Citizen is a broad term. It includes in its meaning a person who is entitled, from his country; to protection at home and abroad. Emphasis has largely been laid, in the past, on those things that a
ci tizen expects his country to do for him. The new tendency is to stre 5 those things that a citizen should do for his country. These include paying 'lUes, holding office, serving on juries, voting at elections, in short serving intelligently in the alfairs of the community.
The great movement in government for generations has been toward democracy. \Vithin our own American democracy certain tendencies have been developing during the twentieth century that indicate the trend of the public mind.
First is the decided broadening of the purpose and functions of the state. The police power of the state has grQwn to include not only the protection of persons and property but the protection of morals and health, the sanitation of cities and the regulation of conditions under which people work. The laissez fain! policy in government has given place to the firm conviction that a vigorous government is the best defense of liberty.
Still another tendency of government has been in extending the suffrage, first to include manhood, then naturalized aliens, and finally woman. This giving of the voting power to the largest number of responsible adults is furthering the principle of democracy. .
MAty WOOD SIMON'S
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
Nothing is more marked in governmental fields than the growth of political partieS into ' great institutions. These stand as the most powerful forces behind elections where the will of the people is being expressed. If the standards of political parties are low it reflects either the indifference or ignorance of the electorate. The measures and men upheld by political machines will rise no higher in quality th an the people in the parties.
There has been a decided development away from the attit ude that so widely prevailed in the nineteenth century that different departments of government, legislative, executive and judicial, acting as a check on each other, was the on.1y way to secure the best results. Something is always learned by comparison. Canada and Australia two well-governed democracies where no such checks exist. In our own country experiments are being tried in coordinating these departments. This is most marked in municipal governments. Commission and City Manager forms of government have not only drawn the l egislative and executive powers closely together but have reduced greatly the number of elective offices .
Prominent among these tendencies is the whole attitude toward the relative importance of the structure, and the function and adminis tration of government. While it is still conceded that the institutions of government are of g reat importance, the emphasis has decidedly changed and it is now the services rendered by government and the better administration of laws that receive first attention. Administrative boards and commissions to which expe rts , not politicians, are named are looked to as a step in the solution of the problem of efficient government.
In l egislation a new factor has gained ground. The electorate has, in many cases, secured a veto power through the initiative and referendum. This veto power can become effective in aiding th e expression of the will of the people only when intelligent study of governmental questions accompanies its use.
N ever perhaps have the eyes of the public been so open and alert to corruption and intimjdation in politics as they are today. This is noticeably true in connection with elections . It is feIt that a fraud committed at the ballot box is IItreason to democracy" and that corruption in the use of public funds can only take place when the electorate is less caref111 in watching public business than in watching its own private affairs or is too ignorant to know what should be expected from the use of its tax money.
COLLEGE WOMAN AS A CJl'IZEN
These are but a rew of the tendencies that mark political life today. The problems that the government is being ca\led on to settle are numerous and difficult oC solution.
One of the problems that looms large in political life is the government of cities. 1\1r. Bryce, after praising OUI institutions highly, points out that our failure as far as there has been any failure has been in municipal government. Our city government problem has been complicated by the fact that in many large cities from fifty to seventy-five per cent of the population is foreign born. Men, and now women, who have come from lands where democratic institutions are little known and the suffrage exercised only at infrequent intervals, to whom American ideals are unknown or vague, after a limjted training in citizensrup exercise the right of franchise. These men and women, during the years before they are admitted to citizenship should have a far greater contact with the best in American life and thought. Hopelessly a Greek once said to the speaker, uWe have met plenty of politicians 3nd bosses, surely therE' must be other Americans. Couldn't we meet some of them?"
The growth of cities has raised grave questions of housing, sanitation and moral well -being that will require the study and thought of the best minds for many years.
No problem toda.y is larger in the minds of the American people than that of disarmament. \Vhat will be the attitude of our government on the question of war preparations? ,"Vith a world chaos industrially and financially through the last great war this problem is pressing for a constructive, decisive solution.
Industrial problems have always been with us but they change their fonns continuously. Much of the difficulty in this field is due to lack of understanding . The health of men and women engaged in industry, providing vocational education and guidance that will prevent the . young from falling into blind alley jobs, the great mass of labor legislation that now forms the basis for entire courses in economics in our universities open unlimittd fields for investigation.
Still other problems of grave importance are the conditions in rural communities drained of their best minds that have been drawn to the cities; education, that with our great efforts thus far has left us on an average little better than a sixth grade nation; and the race question, that baving cost thousands of lives is still far from solution.
The American college woman has always been a citizen. She- has not always been a voter. This new privilege of the franchise has

quickened the thought of women along the line of governmental and sociological questions. This came at an opportune time as far as the tendency of college thought is concerned. Not so many years ago the professional school and the college as well made its greatest appeal to the student on the ground of personal aggrandizement. A new purpose is gripping our college women, especially since the opening of the war. Along with the desire to be ready to carryon a useful vocation has come the wish to be fi tted to serve the com'munity ill some way. Opportunities for social service are being sought and preparation for that type of work is the aim of many college courses .
Public health work, the Childrens' Bureau, research work, many branches of the federal and 10("c:l.l service arc open to women. And when the college women enter these fields they will go, not as politicians, but as those who serve the public welfare.
The women privileged to secure a university training are but an exceedingly small percentage of the population of the country. It is their :field to help set the standards of good government, to serve those less privileged in no spirit of patronage, but as those to whom much has been given and of whom much should be required.

THE AFTER·CONVENTION HOUSE-PARTY AT CAMP PANHELLENIC
On an autumn day with brilliant sunshine and dark clouds running the gamut of color on the red-brown countryside it is difficult to feel or picture Charlevoix last July. The Hudson lies a ribbon of moulton si lv er glinted by the sun as it sets behind the Palisades and winter is whispering in the wind which draws up the valley; it is hard to give you the sensation of degrees, a dead air, a glaring sun and innumerable articles of baggage grasped warmly to one's person. However, it was even thus that about forty survivors of a week at Charlevoix-the-Beautiful disposed of themselves in the bus at seven-thirty A. M. on July 6. After breakfast at the Beach Hotel, [Illal good-byes were said at the dock and the trip was begun across Lake Michjgan. Miss Dixon had arranged that the Goodrich boat, bound from Mackinac to Chicago, should stop for us at Beaver

Island. Later, a heavy sea, stirred up by a thuuder shower, rendered the joy of living problematical to several of our number, but no one seemed to mind the downpour. The auto ride to camp from the landing at Washington Harbor was merely a preparation for the great wood lire awaiting us up at the Lodge and the hearty band·grasps from old friends and new. That evening when the rain had stopped, there was quite a scramble and some planning on the part of II Dick" and lIRuth" to provide for SO many until the trunks could be brought over but everyone finally turned in, and it is unnecessary to add, slept well.
The next day began two weeks of rest and fun amid perfect
A her tent inspection at which we were all much impressed and depressed, Dick said that each tent must have a name. We,May Keller, Pauline Turnbull, Adelaide Rothert, NelI Boyer and I, were in the last tent so we thought a poetic title would be "Land's End/' to whkh, after the heat broke with a gale from the northwest, we made the appropriate addition of uBlow In."
The first week it was too hot to live-out of the water-but we were too tired to care. The energetic portion of the camp-everyone except the ULounge Lizards" above mentioned-staged a very creditable minstrel show in tbe Town Hall which netted $125 towa r d · . Junior High School on Washington Island. Mr. uBo" Anderson, mayor, was highly grati1ied and made a speech in which he expressed his admiration for the camp directors, camp and II B in gene r al in terms quite satisfactory to "Buzz" and her compan)'. The heat was too severe during the day to do much but read and look off at the water, sleep and eat, but in the evening there were the canoes and t h e sunset or the wood paths and twilight.
The second week much sleep, splendid mea ls, and a cool. breeze made us feel like living and, when a local farmer called on the camp to save his cherry crop, there was nearly a unanimous response. Af t er we picked cherries all morning, we washed at the pump and had sandwiches, cake and coffee in the shade of the farm-house. But as the farrJ'ter's wife observed, IIThose poor girls aren't used to r eal work," and a swim was the only thing which revived us. Since the wages were only ten cents a "carrier" of eight qU3Tts (some ODe managed to pick 48 quarts) our combined earnings were not grea t but we were happy to turn in $16,00 to the Settlement School.

'ro many of us sleeping in a tent was a n e w experience-as witness the wild screams when the rattlesnake, i. e. wood borer, got beneath the Missouri tent; it was a new sensation to feel the night wind and th(' first kiss of the sun as it rose behind Rock Island and turned th e channe l to gold; it was strange to hear the roar of the waves on the reef and to wonder just when the tent would blow down; it was lovely to lie on one's army cot and look at the moonlight on the wa ter and in the woods; all these experiences we shall treasure through the long winter.

Farnsworth, and Mrs. Farnsworth (Charlotte Joy Allen, Colorado A ), known affectionately to campers as "l\'Iadama."
Hanoum, one of the earliest girls' camps, was started by the Famsworths thirteen years ago, at the request of a group of girls in

The Hil1 Camp, for 1ittle girls, is the original camp; the Lake Camp , for older girls, with the College Club, is beside lovely Abenaki ( "Lake of the Early Dawn"). The Inn is a quaint o!d building midway in the beautiful elm-shaded village street.
Helen 'MacDonald and Regina Murnane, New York B, spent most of August at the Hanoum Inn. Lucy Huber, Michigan B, was a counselor in the hand-craft department, and directed many artistic

Camp provides a very whol eso me and absorbing life for nine weeks, for both girls and counselors. The campe rs not only learn to swim and ride, to hike and cook io the open, to be at home with nature, but they learn to work and play and sing t oge ther.

AMY BURNHAM ONKEN, GRAND PRESIDENT
"Fame comes only when deserved, and then is 35 inevitable as destiny, for it is destiny."
Long(eHow-1IyperW".
Although the inevitable Hfarne" of Amy Burnham Onken in II B has reached its topmost pinnacle in her recent election to the highest office in the fraternity, the immeasurable service which she has r endered to her beloved fraternity throughout all Pi Phidom had its beginning on the day of her initiation into Illinois E.
Since that day she has given co ntinual eviden ce of that type of interest in and devo tion to II B <{) that has tangibly expressed itself in not only to her own chapter but to scores of individual chapters to which she has proven a source of inspiration and helpfulness on trips of inspection and installation as a national offi ce r. Consequently the name of Amy Burnham Onken is well known to every U chapter although she now serves us for the first time in her new capacity-that of Grand President.
As a girl she attended the public school in Chapin, Illin ois, where she has always lived, and later attended the Jac ksonville Female Academy from which she was graduated in 1904.
The following autumn she entered orthwestern University where she became a wearer of the arrow on October IS, 1904. Her willingness to serve, dependability, and capacity for leadership were prompt· Iy discovered by her fellow classmates, and she was constantly sought

and elected to fill such important offices as class historian, member of the Y. W. C. A. cabinet, advertising manager of the college
anoual, etc.
An enumeration of her various college offices, h owever , is but a sUght indication of the real service which she rendered to 11CT Alma Mater by reason of her high ideals and strong cha.racter. As a student she was characterized by a remarkable capacity for friendship, an untiring energy, a conscientious devotion to duty, ready tact, an understanding sympathy and helpfulness-q ualities that have rendered her career as a national officer so eminently successful.
AMY n. ONKEN Grand President
Her travels over the count ry when installing new chapters, her frequent official visits to many. chapters as Grand Secretary, and her attendance at national II B c)! conventions have given many the privilege of meeting and knowing her.
She enters upon her new duties with the good wishes and enthusiastic support of her countless friends in the fraternity who rejoice with her in this great honor so justly given, and who pledge to her that loyalty and cooperation which she so richly deserves.
ANNA ROB! NSON NICKERSON, Gralld Vice -Presidwt

ANNE STUART, GRAND TREASURER
Anne Stuart, for the fourth time elected Grand Trea s urer, needs no introduction to Pi Beta Phis-active or alumnre. No one has a wider acquaintance in the fraternity o r is a more universal favorite. She is the dean of national officers, having been actively engaged in national work since 1904. From 1904 to 1906 she served as President of Delta Provin ce, and from 1906 to 1912, as President of Gamma Province. At the Evanston convention in 1912 she was elected to her present office, in which she has rendered outstanding service to the fraternity.
M iss Stuart is of New England ancestry but was reared in the West. She received her early education at Field Seminary, Oakland, California, and entered the University of Nebraska in 1894.
ANNE STUART
She was initiated into Nebraska B, Grand November 23, 1895, a few months after the installation of the chapter. In her junior year she decided to give up her regular co llege course in o rd er to devote her time exc1 usi vely to the pursui t of her special interest, music. In 1899 she received the degree of Mus .B. from the University School of Music. After two years of graduate work she studied in Chicago under the noted pianist, Fanny Bloomfi eld Zeisler, and later spent some time in study abroad.
Stuart not only possesses Tare musical ability but also rare husiness ability_ In financial management she has had valuable experience, having been carefully train ed by her father who was one of the best known and most conservative bankers of the state of N ebraska. Her unusual ability has been demonstrated in her home city, Lincoln, where for four years she served as treasurer of the Y. W. C. A. and handled all the funds for its $50,000 building, as well as in her national fraternity . For a number of years Miss Stuart was actively engaged in Sunday and juvenile court work,
uut in recent years, with the increasing demands of the fraternity work, she has been forced to devo!e herself exclusively to it. She is active in the Lincoln Alumnre Club and keeps in close touch with the local chapter. The service which she and her sister, Melinda Berry Stuart, also a prominent alumna of Nebraska H, and treasurer of the n B 4> Settlement School, render to the fraternity is inestimable.
A survey of :Miss Stuart's annual reports for the nine years of her service gives evidence of her remarkable accomplishments with the finan(;cs of the fraternity. "'fhe sound financial status which, through her careful management and wise investments, she has given the fraternity, places it under a lasting debt of gratitude to her, as does her loyalty and unselfish devotion to its interests.
Pi Phis who see Anne Stuart in artion at convention, keen, alert, prompt and business - like, carrying onc of the heaviest loads, yet never losing her spirit of mirth and her delightful sense of bumor, have an excellent opportunity to know the good fairy of the treasury as she really is.

was active in college life, devoting particular attention to Y. 'V. C. A. and to the college literary societies.
In October, 1895, she was married to Mr. Frederick Carl Sigler of
Corning , Iowa, a college classmate. For many years they ha ve 1i ved in Indianola. Their interest has always cen· tered about Simpson College, of. which Mr. Sigler is a member of the board of trustees, and their beautiful home is always open to college students. Mrs. Sigler has frequently served as chaperon for the Ladies' Glee Club, has a large Sunday School class of college girls, is a member of the advisory board of the college Y. W. C A. and also serves as alumnre ' adviser for Iowa B. One of her chief services to the college has been the organization and working out of the "town mother" idea, by which the young women of Simpson have been brought into close touch with the women of the community. When Mrs. Sigler was president of the large Indianola Women"s Club of ab out two hundred and fifty members, the question often arose , "What can the women of Indianola do for the college girls?" Mrs. Sigler thought deeply upon the matter and proposed that at thl! beginning uf each semester each club woman have assigned to her by a committee from the club in conference with the dean, a college daughter, upon whom she would call in person and to whom she would extend the hospitality of her home, in this way affording the home touch and the home influence keenly missed by a girl away from her own home The "town mother" custom is now one of the most distinctive and cherished traditions of Simpson

THREE NEW CHAPTERS-THEIR LATIONS , HOMES Al\'D HISTORIES
IN STALLATION OF MONTANA ALPHA
On September 29, 30 and October I , Montana A chapter o[ II B q, was installed at the Montana State College at B ozeman, Montana . One thin g which from the ve ry outset gave assurance of the insta ll ation being 3. perfect one was the fact that our Grand President, Amy Onken, was to be the installing officer; and anothe r splendi d feature was the visit of Mrs. Beck, the Provin ce President , who planned her chap,ter visit at that time.
Nine Pi Phis from cities othe r than Bozeman, in addit ion to the three Bozeman Pi Phis were present The chapter-house was turned ove r the visitors and the chapte r members f'tayed in town homes.
On the afternoon of October 29, th e pledging ce remony was held followed th at evening by the r eading and interpretation oC t he cons titution by Mrs. Beck.
The next night came the initiation and banquet. The chapte rhouse was a sp l endid place for the initiation. To those members who had been separ ated f r om college and college friends fo r a long time, th e initiati on ceremony meant the renewal of l>onds and de ar memo rie s whi ch once made up a very great part of their lives a n d to those being in it iated it meant the opening of a new world of unlimited possibilities.
A c hapter which had been built on the tradition of many yea rs of fraternity life could not have shown more II spirit and fellowship than did th is new chapte r at the initiation banquet. It was a bright promise for the future and seemed to g iv e evidence that th ese giIls who h ad just been initiated into th e fratemhy and had just assumed th e responsib ilities of being part of a g r eat national organiza ti on were w e ll developed and ready to give of their best to our fraternity.
The banquet r oom was a bowe r o f brilliant fa ll leaves and th e long tab1es were lit with wine and blue cand les. \Vin e carnations and wine and silver blue ribbons were eve rywher e. During t he entire banquet, fl owe r s, chie fly wine ca rn atio ns, were received as gifts fr o m the other fraternities and from individuals in the city.

everyone sang II 4> songs. The singing helped to increase the glow of satisfaction and good will which had been paramount ' all evening.
On Saturday, all of those who had been familiar with the traditions of the fraternity longer than the members of Montana A, gave a cooly·shine as a last introduction to the mysteries of TJ 4>. The crbp cookies, the many flowers, the fun and the genuine cooky-shine spirit will long remain in the memory of each onc who participated.
The patronesses of the local, who are now the patronesses of A proved their love and interest in the chapter by giving the installation reception. It was a beautifully appointed affair, held Saturday night at the Elks' Club. Members of th e fraternities, the faculty, the college students and a great many towns people were in"'ited and attended in large numhers. showing their sincere pleasure in the happiness of the new Pi Phis. After the r ecep tion many guests remained for dancing. To conclude the evening the chapter sa.ng an original song which they have adopted as their own chapter song and also sang the Anthem.
Miss Onken left on Sunday , Mrs. Beck staying until Monday. The gratitude which the chapter feels for the inspiration brought by those two Pi Phis can never be expressed.
The coming of IT B 4> into Montana State College was of general interest on the campus X gave an informal reception for the: group and the members of A 0 IT gave a tea to the faculty and students of the college in honor of Montana A. 1 6., 3 local fraternity, gave a lovely tea for the new Pi Phis.
All of the courtesies helped to c reate a feeling of interfraternity good will which goes so far to make fraternities an important and beneficial thing in college life
SALLIE
Much of the success of the installation was due to the efforts of Lida Patterson, Illinois A, Mrs. Lovelace, Michigan B, and Sallie Gillespie, Louisiana A. The chapter also appreciated the assistance of Washington A and H and Wyoming A. -[ THE EOITOK.]
HISTORY OF MO TANA STATE COLU:GE
By an act of the Third Legislative Assembly of Montana on February 16, 1893, the Agricultural College of the State of Montana was located at Bozeman. Shortly after the establishment of the college, the State Board of Education met at Bozeman to provide for a site for a campus, and to take steps toward the erection of buildings.
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
Instru ction began September 15, 1893, classrooms being located in 3. nearby school building.
The growth of Montana State College since those early days of fOllnding has been remarkable. Today the college has title to a tract of 3,920 acres of land, has stations throughout the state, and promises soon to be placed on a par with the best educational universities of the West through a state appropriation of $1,000,000 for building purposes. Work is now being done on laying the foundations of the new buildings-a gymnasium, heating plants, a biology "uilding and an engineering building, the latter of which will be ready for use in the fall of 19 22.
During the year 1920-21, I ,050 students registered at Montana State College, a number which represents students from twenty-five states aside from Montana as well as seven foreign count ries .
HISTORY OF PH! GAMMA
In the spring of 1912, eight four-year college women of high ,tanding organized the Keseke Club of Montana State College. The word "Keseke" was the anglacized French phrase, .qllest-u-qlle, meaning II\Vhat is it." Although fraternities were allowoo" at Montana State College at that tim e, the club kept before its memhers, frem the first, high fraternal standards of scho larship, cooperation, and a chivalrous spirit of intercourse with other students at Montana State College. It was not until May of 1916, when the of the state institutions of higher learning provided that Greekletter fraternities be permitted at Montana State College, that the Keseke Club became publicly known as <I> r Fraternity. It was at this time that r decided to work for a charter grant from IT B Fraternity, as a representative of the highest type of womanhood to which nny group of college women might aspire. The ideals of the local group never wavered, even in the dark days when success seemed impossible.
In 1916 , "" r, pioneer in this field of endeavor at Montana State College, established a chapter-house for its out-oi- town members and this it has maintained successfully up to the present time.
The organization ever maintained the highest standards of fair play and good sportsmanship in campaigns for membership against the other women's fraternities at Montana State College. And its success in obtaining members has proven the worth of such ideals.

NORTH DAKOTA ALPHA
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
The local group, from the time of organization, was always composed of young women who were leaders in activities at Montana State Col1ege. The scholarship of the group, however, was low, and it was given to understand that it could hope for no charter from IT B until that weakness had been corrected. It was during the college year of 1920-21 that <I> r at last rea ched and maintained the liB" average whi ch had been set before it. Preparations were immediately begun for petiti on ing for a charter grant from IT B cz, at the twenty- fifth biennial convention of that fraternity held at Charlevoix, Michigan , in July of 1921. The petition , presented by Sallie Gillespie . Louisiana At and Mrs . S. C. Lovela ce, Michigan B, met with success.
INSTALLATlON OF NORTH DAKOTA ALPHA
Just try to imagine how thrilled you would be over your first installation and then you will kn ow how I felt when I left for Grand Forks on th e evening of October 5. Marjorie Bonney, Minnesota A, and Gertrude Patterson, Nebraska H, were on the same train .
Mrs Olmstead , a patroness, of the l oca l group, turned her lovely home over to us and we found Miss Onken waiting for us there when we arrived Thursday mornin g. After removing the stains of travel and resting up a bit, we went out to the '.If 0 'II house for lunch. There we met most of the girls and it certainly was a pleasure to see them again. They were so excited and happy I truly felt repaid for my work in presenting their petition at convention.
Thursday afternoon we pledged t he charter members and nine alurnniE. I know they" wished that their colors and pledge pins were three times as large.
Thursday evening we sent the prospective initiates home and stayed up very late getting ready for the next day. Aillene Sullivan, Minnesota A, came up fr om Fargo that evening.
The next morning we initiated the charter members. Oh, how proud and happy they were! The enthusiasm of a brand new D <I> certainly is an inspiration. Friday afternoon we initiated nine alumnre and also had the exci tement of pledge day. Our girls pledged nine splendid freshmen but they cannot be initiated until n ex t year on account of a university ruling.
Friday night the girls had their installation banquet and greetings were read from chapters all over the United States. What a wonderful thing it is to belong to an organization which is so large and yet so closely interested, each individual in the other.
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
At the banquet toasts were given by Miss Onken, Grand PresideI} t ; Olive K e ll er Laurence, Minnesota A; Marjorie Bonney also of Minnesota A ; Gertrude Patterson , Nebraska B; and three of the new Pi Phis. Elsie Coon, Illin ois A , acted as toastmistress. Those of us who attended the installation wish to extend to her ou r sincere thanks for taking cha rge of a ll local arrangements . I am su re that with the help of lVIis5 Coon and Miss Brennan, North Oakota A will make a splendid start as a chapter.
Saturday morning th e freshmen for last yea T and this year were pledged, f ollowed by a cooky -shine at the home of Ma ri on Wild er with the seven older Pi Phis as hostesses. The curiosity as to what a cooky-shine might be was manifest. And the girls pronounced it more than they had expected.
On Saturday afternoon we initiated last year's freshmen and held the formal reception to the university that night. Thus ended the in sta ll a ti on of North Dakota A. May they find a world of happiness i n forming a st rong link in the c hain of II B <1>.

HISTORY OF THE UN IVER S ITY OF NORTH DAKOTA
The University of North Dakota is lo cated at Grand Forks, a city of more than 15 ,000 inhabitants, on the banks of the Red River of the North. The university was founded by a11' ac t of the Territorial Assembly Jl4lssed February 23, 1883. By the terms of the Enabling Act , Cong ress the un iversity 86,080 acres of public lands and the School of :M ines, by law combined with the university, received 40 ,000 ac res. The institution is supported by the state appropriations and land incomes, and is under the contro l of a B oard of Administration appointed by the gove rn or of th e state.
Students were enroll ed for the fir s t time September 8, 1884 The first graduation was held in 1889. At the university are lo ca ted the coUege of liberal arts, the school of education, the school of law, the college of engineering, and the school of medicine, all ranking with the highest. There are now about 530 women , and about 600 men of college rank on the campus. This is exclusive of the extension department and the universi ty high school which increase the enrollment to nearly 1,700 students.

A HISTORY OF P IOMEGA PSI
The organization of + 0 '.It was begun in 1916 when a petition sent to the university council wa" passed. There were ten cha rt er members, most of whom had been chosen by Miss Ella L. Fulton, Dean of Women. They held their first formal meeting on February 24, 1917. During the first year meetings were held in a specia l r oom in one of the dormitories, but at the beginning of the second quarter, we were able to rent a house on the camp us and have since maintained it, having furnished it from funds set aside for that purpose. A boarding department has since been established
From the beginning the goal of + n 'If has been to obtain a charter of U B and this goa l was reached when at the "twenty-fifth nationul biennial convention our petition was granted.
THE INSTALLATION OF FLORIDA BETA
As soon as the installing office r for Florida B awoke on the second day of her journey to Florida in October it was ev id ent that she was sout h of the Mason and Dixon line-cottan fields with their lines of negroes of all ages fillin g ample burlap bags with the snowy balls; fields of sugar-cane with here and there a Hcane grinding"; everywhere the sweet singing of the mocking birds; forests of pine trees being "tapped" for turpentine; the soft, Southern, R - less accent of the fellow-passengers; and, finally, the magnificently picturesque live oak trees clothed in their long, Bowing robes of gray, Spanish moss that came into view as we crossed the Geo rgi a line and neared Tallahassee, the home of the Florida State Women's College.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
It was a great pleasure to discover upcn reaching Tallahassee that Bessie Dew and Marguerite Straw, formerly of Florida A, are this year students at F. S. 'V. C., and they proved invaluable assistants in makjng final plans for the ceremonies of October 13, 14, 1S.
l\1y one regret of the whole delightful experience was that so very few Pi Phis were privileged to enjoy the inspiration of such an occasion, the be3uties of this unusual college camp us, the true Southern h"'pitality of the faculty and student body, and the delightful friendships formed with these members of our youngest chapte r.
\V ould that mOTe of you could have sat with us on the campus that last Sunday night under the full Florida moon-the stately, ivyc.overed Tudor buildings, the bushes of bamboo, poinsettias, and palmettos of that semi-tropical climate standing out clearly in the brillia.nt moonlight, the faint tinkling of gujta r and ukulele music floating out over the campus from the dormitory windows, the winding pinespread walk s , and those magnificent Jive oak trees "bearded with moss and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight, standing like Druids of old, with voices sad and prophetic"-a veritable fairyland!
On Thursday af :ernoon Juanita Bass of Louisiana A, and Lady Lois Townsen<l, Jane Abbott, Edith Hart, Dorothy Douglas, and Emma Jane Rowe of Florida A arrived to assist in the installation ceremonies of that week-end. I mmediately upon their ar rival the ten active members and five alumnre: of A 0 who were able to come back to Tallahassee at this time were formally pledged to membership in II B q, in the chilpter room.
That evening on the attractive mezzanine balcony of one of the dormitories the college Panhellcnic association, with the Dean of Women presiding over the tea table, entertained the visiti ng Pi Phis anu the fifteen new II <I> pledges at a delightfully informal tea.
Through the kind thoughtfulness of Miss Kimhall, a K '" member of the faculty, the Pra.ctice House, a model home, supervised and managed by the girls of the home economics department, was turned over to us in its entirety for the day of initiation, and it was here that fifteen of the charter members of the chapte r were initiated, and that, as a chapter, Florida B of II B <I> came into being and was fonnally installed as such late that afternoon.
After this formal installation ceremony, at the earnest request of the new initiates, Gladys Morris, the president of A 0 , (who, because of the fact that she was unable to be in college last year, did
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
not sign the. chapter petition and, consequently, was not a charter member of the new chapter) was iItitiated by the Grand Secretary assisted by the visiting Pi Phis.
As a consequence, sixteen radiantly ha ppy wearers of the arrow attended the formal installation banquet at the Leon Hotel in Tallahassee that evening at which Frances Shelley of Daytona, Florida, one of the new initiates, proved a charming and able toastmistress. Countless telegrams of greeting from and active chapters were read, toasts were given by the visiting Pi Phis and several of the members of the Hew chapter, and all of the songs dear to II ¢. hearts were sung and re·sung.
On Saturday afternoon from four until six the chapter was at home to their college and town friends at a delightful reception Hkewise held in the Practice House. The rooms were artistically decorated with a profusion of flowers; the visiting Pi Phis formed a receiving line in the large reception han; and the chapter patronesses presided over the tea table. Several meml?ers of the musical faculty added greatly to the enjoyment of the occasion with beautiful vocal and violin numbers throughout the afternoon.
That everting live attractive A n pledges were formally pledged to n B following which the visiting Pi Phis entertained their new sisters and pledges at a good, old-fashioned cooky-shine. In addition to Heats" galore and many songs we discovered many latent talents amon,g our new initiates, and were loath to the time come for the departure of the Stetson Pi Phis on the night sleeper.
Throughout our visit the hospitality, courtesy and thoughtfulness of the other fraternities on the campus were ever apparent,. and candy md flowers in profusion gave tangible evidence of their splendid spirit and' good will.
The last afternoon of my stay in Tallahassee was devoted to the first formal chapter meeting of Florida H, the election of officers, the interpretation of fraternity membership, explanations and final instructions. That evening as a climax, one of the newly-initiated alumnre, Frances Shelley, cleverly announced her engagement and approaching marriage.
SUIely the advent of this OUT youngest chapter was under the most auspicious of circumstances, and those of us who were so privileged as to be present for the memorable occasion can assure our other sixty-four chapters that Florida B chapter of II B 011 is one of which
any IT 'I> may be proud, and one that promises great things for the future for our beloved fraternity.

HISTORY OF FLORIDA STATE COLLEGE FOR WOMEN
The Florida State College for Women really dates from 1905 although from '1857 until that time it was a State Coeducational School. The two colleges, the University of Florida in Gainesville and the Florida State College for Women in Tallahassee established by an act of Legi s la ture, generally known as the Bu ckman Bill, approved June 5, 1905, and aTC maintained on exactly the same bases. They .are both under the same Board of Control and have the same entrance requirements and curricula.
The growing attendance gives evidence of its growing usefulness. In the year 1905 - 06 there were 204 in the student body and in 1920-21 there were 662. In summer school of that year there were 469.
The college grounds of 270 acres, valued at $100,000, comprise the campus proper and the college farm. On the campus are fifteen buildings .11 of Tudor architecture, valued at more than $945,000, including equipment. These buildings include the administration building, the educational building, four dormitories, a hospital, a training schoo], dining-hall, and a gymnasium. The dormitories, dining-hall, and hospital are al1 connected by covered arcades. The 1921 legislature appropriated $800,000 to be used for new buildings including a dormitory and science hall.
n B makes the seventh national literary fraternity, the others being: K Il (1904), X 0 (1908), A Il II (1909), Illlll (1916), (1920), ::s l (1920). Besides these there are two honorary fratemities---<A X A (1921), and III II (1921).
HISTORY OF ALPHA OMEGA
A 0 was organized in 1913 as a club of girls who held as their goal the attainment of a national fraternity which would not only benefit them, but would mean a great deal to the college and local Panhellenic as well.
In 1915 we were accepted as a local fratentity by college Panhellenic and began work in earnest to raise our standards and scholarshi p to the very best.
In 1917 we began communications with IT B and after a year of development in internal organization, received word that we were to have our first official visit from that fraternity. We were all thrilled to know that our visitors were Mrs. Sarah Pomeroy-Rugg, at that time Ed.itor of the ARROW, and Miss Pauline Turnbull, President of Ganuna Province. We greatly enjoyed their visit, and although at that time we did not receive much encouragement, we felt that we were spurred on anew to work for n B cfJ.
For nearly three years A 0 continued to strive for this goal, competing with .five national fraternities, coOperating with them in the movements for good on our campus, and advancing in scholarship, along the raising of scholastic standards of tbe college. Not until April, 1921, did Mrs Nickerson, representing the Grand Council of IT B <1>, visit our chapter. After thoroughly investigating college conditions and standards, our standing among fraternity groups on the campus, as well as OUT organization individually she sent permission for us to formally petition IT B <I> in May.
A short time after Mrs. Nickerson's visit, Frances Evens from Louislana A came to inspect us. She seemed most enthusiastic about the group and because of this enthusiasm and interest, A .0 asked her to sponsor our ca use at convention. .
With a g reat deal of concentrated effort and all the interest and "pep" possible we prepared our petition for presentation at the national biennial convention at Charlevoix this year.
It was not until the middle of the summer that the wonderful word was received that IT B <!> had voted to g rant us a charter and our joy was unbounded. At the opening of this college year we worked untiringly in preparation for our fraternity examination and pledged five splendid freshmen.
Four weeks after college opened, our Grand Secretary, Miss Lulu Helen Clark, came as our installing officer. There were also five guests from Florida A, one from Louisiana A, and two Pi Beta Phis formerly of Florida A who are now students at Florida State College for \Vomen, to assist in the installation ceremonies.
It has indeed been the happiest time of our lives, and it is our sincere hope that we, the youngest chapte r of n B ell, may ever prove wortby of tbe trust which the fraternity has placed in us.
OUR GRADUATE FELLOW, 1921-22
Frances Elma Gillespie, Columbia A, who holds the II B if> Fellowsrip for 1921-22, has two II if> sisters: Mary, who became a member of Texas A in 1911; and Sallie, who joined Louisiana A in 1920. The latter will be remembered by those who attended the last convention as an enthusiastic endorser of r, now Montana A.
Frances Elma Gillespie .was born in Mansfie1d, Texas, on November 25 . 1885 , and soon after that moved with her parents to Fort Worth , Texas, where her home has iiince remained.
After completing the grammar grades, Miss Gillespie attended what was then Fort Worth
FRANCIS EUfA GILLESPIE University, a Sl11all Methodist college, later moved to Guthrie, Oklahoma. At that university she finished her preparatory and two years of college study. Her father was then elected to the United States Congress and the family moved to Washington, D. C., to live during his term of office .
In 1903, Miss Gillespie entered George Washington University and was initiated into Columbia A. Three years later she received the degree of A.B. and continued to live in Washington until 1910 when her father withdrew from Congress. DuriI!g those years she was a member of the Alumme Club and kept in close touch with fraternity affairs.
Two years after the Gillespie family had returned to Fort Worth to live, Frances began to teach history in the Fort Worth High School I1nd in 1916 went to the University of Chicago for a summer of advanced study.
At once she became so interested in graduate research work that she detennined to go rather deeply into it and accordingly returned to Chicago in 1917. Soon she won a graduate fellowship in history which was awarded by the university and returned for a continuous year's work at the end of which time she received the degree of A.M.
In the spring of 1919 she was elected as an assistant to teach one class in the university and held the same position during 1919·20. The following year she was made an associate in history with full teaching work, which is the lowest teaching rank. But the university qui ckly realized Miss Gillespie's ability and elliciency and appointed her an instructor in history {or two years, 1921-23, with one year's leave of absence, which i. the next highest rank in the University of Chicago. As soon as her research work has been completed and her thesis submitted, Miss Gillespie will receive the degree of Ph.D.
By combining the II II <11 Fellowship with a fellowship granted by the University of Chicago, Miss Gillespie has been enabled to go to England for nine months' study and investigation into the political history of the English working classes in the latter half of the nineteenth century.
THEI PI BETA PHI FELLOWSHIP FOR GRADUATE STUDY
For the year 1922-23, II B <11 will olIer one graduate fellowship with a value of $500.00. This fellowship is open to any member of the fraternity who has received her Bachelor's degree, and may be used at any university, either in this country or in Europe, which olIers the best advantages in graduate work along the particular line desired by its holder.
Two points will be considered by the Grand Council in awarding the fellowship: first, scholastic standing; and second, all-round development of character and ability to represent the fraternity. Each applicant must state definitely the university which she wishes to enter, the courses which she desires to pursue, and the ultimate aim of her graduate study. Applications, accompanied by photographs of the applicants, credentials from college professors, and other recommendati ons should be in the hands of the Grand President not later than March I, 1922.
Blank forms for application for the fellowship may be obtained from the Grand President. If she so desires , any applicant of former years who has not received the fellowship may make a new application.
All applications for under graduate l oans should be made to the committee in charge of the Loan Fund. Information as to conditions, credentials, and terms of loans may be obtained from the chairman of the Commhtee on Loan Fund, Mrs. Thomas Bradlee, 64 North Prospect St. , Burlington , Vt.
AMY B. ONKEN, Grand President.
REPORT OF PANHELLENIC DELEGATE
On October 26, the National Panhellenic Congress convened at the Hotel Claypool in Indianapolis. The first meeting was largely given over to reports of delegates and officers and regular routine A number of new faces were seen about the table and a few old friends were missing.
The most striking feature of the sessions grew out of the consti tutional changes, namely the distinct erIort on the part of the Committee on Constitution to clearly define the powers of the Congress. It was brought out again that the Congress was a deliberative, not a Jaw-maki ng, body and should confine itself to discussion and suggestions rather than to legislation , the latter being the province of the individual fraternity groups. A motion to suspend the ruling on high school fraternities was passed, and was the cause of much discuss.ion. It was finally suspended, not becau se the attitude of the National Pan hellenic has changed in regard to the evil of these organizations, but because it is the belief of the majority of the delegates that the time has come for the high schools themselves to l egislate, and so put an end to the difficulty.
There were interest.ing Round Tables on Vocations, City Panhelleuics, and valuable reports fr om the standing Committees on Chaperons, Publicity, and Extension. A central Bureau for Chaperons was n ot established at this time, but the necessity for much more adequate supervision of both scholarship and chaperonage of fratern ity chapters was strongly impressed up on all the delegates by the report.
A Committee on Health was appointed to draw up a program for Panhellenics to follow. This committee Teported that every city Panhellenic as well as other groups should be requested to give at least one meeting per year to a discussion of health problems.
On Wednesday night we were delightfully entertained by the alumn.., club of Indianapolis and Indiana r at the chapter-house near the Butler campus. Mrs. Rugg, Mrs. Spring, and your Panhellenic delegate received with the club and chapter presidents. Many old friendships were renewed and many riew friends made, for there were a large number of different chapters represented and among them several who had attended the Charlevoix convention.
On Thursday night the City Panhellenic entertained for all delegates, and a very attractive and original program made the evening pass all too rapidly. If all active chapteTs could have seen the inteTfTaternity fellowship displayed at these gatherings, it would go far toward alleviating some of the tense situations which arise out of suspicion and lack of understanding on the part of those immediately concerned.
On Saturday the luncheon was held at the Claypool; II B was repTesented by forty-six members, which was the laTgest number present from any fraternity, with K A 0 a close second. Mrs. Felix McWhirter gave the addTess, which was a fitting cIo"" to a meeting full of good-rellowship and a Teal desire to serve. Her exhoTtation to us as Greeks was that the splendid young college woman, especially the chosen fraternity woman, should live up to the demands made upon heT by the pTesent-day needs of society and of the wOTld.

DR. CARRIE CHAPMAN CATT

of Doc tor of Laws· and when on June 15 Iowa State Co llege, h e r Alma Mat e r, con ferred the same degree.
A l though \he Unive r' sity of Wy omi ng had previo us ly bee n r eq uested to confe r the honorary degree of LL.D. o n others, . it had refused and had seem ingl y been w aiti ng for something very ch oice -for someone who could claim the honor with great distinction. After delive rin g the Bacca laureate address to th e graduatin g class, Mrs. Catt received the hon o rary degree , a diploma, and a silken hood of brown and ye ll ow And tod a y her name stands on the alumn", r oll, as the first and onl y person to bear that degree fr om the Universit y of Wyoming . F or the occasion, Mrs Catt wore a very beautiful cap and go wn wIDeh had been presented to her by the people of Brook lyn , New York, in recognition of her service to the suffra ge cause . It was particularly fitting that Mrs. Cat t should be h ono red first by Wyoming, since this is the home of equa l suff r age, the ca us e for wIDeh our noted fraternity member has d evo ted forty lon g years of

unfaltering loyalty and interest. Closely associated with her during her vh:dt in Laramie, was Dr. Grace Raymond Hebard, a pioneer suffragist in Wyoming, and a member of Iowa Z of II B
The fa \lowing words of acceptance spoken by Dr Catt in appreciation of the honor conferred upon her were most typical of her noble womanhood: "I thank the Facul ty and the Board of Trustees of the University of Wyoming. There are no words 1 could find to express my appreciation and gratitude of the very great honor you have bestowed upon me. 1 realize that you have done this thing because in a sense I stand as the symbol for the great cause that Wyoming has served and on behalf of my cause I am doubly gratefu1."
On June 15, Dr. Calt delivered a Commencement address at her Alma Mater, Iowa. State College at Ames, Iowa, where she received the second degree of LL.D. and was one of the eight hundred persons who marched in cap and gown.
at Ames, Dr. Catt became the recipient of an exceedingly interesting gift: a sister pin of r4 T fraternity, of which her husband, Mr. George Catt, became a member in 187S. This was the first sister pin which had ever been presented by r II chapter of Il Til.
A NATIONAL PARK RANCER
Marguerite Lindsley, Montana A, was last summer appointed by the Department of the Interior to the position of a ranger in the Ye\lowstone National Park and served so efficiently that she has been recommended again for next year. Although Miss Lindsley's father has been in the National Park Service for twenty·eight years, she did not receive her appointment through "pull," because her father did not think she could do the work and discouraged her when she applied for the appointment.
Lindsley's work last summer consisted of about two hikes a day over the Hot Spring Formations at Mammoth, each trip being about three miles in length. Then she did two or three shifts each day in the Government Information Office and on several occasions did patrol duty over the formations.
Since she is taking a pre·medic course at the Montana State CoJlege and had had experience in bacteriology, she was speciaJly detailed as assistant in the laboratory to the sanitary engineer who was testing the waters of the Park for drinking purposes.

CONVENTION IMPRESSIONS
(What a Fr::atcrnity Girl Thinks)
(It is with keen regret that lack of space makes it im possible to publish all · of the letters submitted. Letters dealing with each phase of convention have beeu selected for public3tioD.-THB EDITOR.)
WHAT Two FOUNDERS THINK.
Our first impression was that it takes courage to attend a meeting with the thermometer standing at 102 degrees, when houses must be closed, trunks packed aad the start made from home at four o'clock in the morning.
MARGUERITE LINDSLEY
Tbe second impression is that we forgot our first impression when we were so kindly met by the Chicago Pi Beta Phis at Union Station and our every comfort for the day was planned and all arrangements were completed by them for our travel to Charlevoix.
Qur third impression never to be forgotten was the enthusiastic greeting at an early hour at beautiful Charlevoix.
Our fourth impression (jafter the inner woman was fed" was the announcement that we were to proc eed immediately to Convention Hall. Your four Founders were in such a mussed condition that Mrs. Hoyt refused to be known as a Monmouth n iii.
OUT fifth impression, as we bid farewell at Charlevoix was that we wanted you to carry our love and thanks for your thoughtfulness to every home chapter and to tell them that your Founders are proud of their seed sowing and returned home feeling that we belong to not only the oldest but the very best woman's secret fraternity in existence. Our wish is today that every member will maintain such a character of uprightness that she will be an honor to n B 4>.
THE BROWNLEE SISTERS. (Mrs. Kilgore and Mrs. Hutchinson).
FROM ANOTHER FOUNDER
I can sincerely say that it was a joy to have the p"rivilege of attending and again meeting the noble women of the Council , to observe their loyalty and good fellowship as they carryon the work of our beloved organization, sowing good seed that has yielded fruit in our life of half a century. The Council, delegates and chapter representatives gave cordial greeting to all of us which we deeply appreciated.
INEZ SMITH SOULE.
ANOTHER FOUNDER SPEAKS
The Twepty-Fifth Biennial Convention of n B <I> is gone, but to me the memory of it will be a lasting joy. I left Charlevoix saying to myself: "This has been just fine and surely will help each one of us to stri"e for noble, worth while things in life. We llear of things that will renew one's youth. The Founders of II B <I> need look for nothing better for them than a return of convention."
FANNIE W. LIBBY.
AWARDING OF CUP FOR ATTAINMENT
The awarding of the Balfour Cup was the thing that impressed me most at convention. I do not know of any greater honor that could
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
be bestowed upon a chapter than the receiving of this cup. It is not so much the value of the cup itself as the meaning for which it stands and the standards which the chapter would have obtained before receiving it. I hope my c hapter will realize this and strive to win it in the near future.
KANSAS B.
WOULD KNOW THEM ANYWHERE
The thing that impressed me most at convention? There were so many things I What wonderful Pi Phis our Founders are I The keen enthusiasm of our Grand Officers, and th e strength of our alumnre. were a revelation to me. And as roll was ca lled at each session and the girl from Maine answered IIhere" with all the capability of a N elV England girl behind it, as the girls from the South answered, entirely forgetful of their Il rs ," as I heard the clear-cut answer of our northern girls, the straight-forward "here" of the Middle West, and the answer of the California girls, with an indefinable bit of California in their "present," I felt that if I should meet those girls in Africa, I should know they must be Pi Phis. I suppose it may all be included in the impression I reeeived of the greatness of our national organiza..tion, and after Mrs. Tannahill's message, the realization that came to me of the potential possibilities for service which we hold in ou r hands as a national organization.
COLORADO A.
ABOVE ALL CAME THE II cz, SPIRIT
Of all the many things th at impressed me at conven ti o n I believe that the IT spirit at the banquet was what impressed me most . To see that large gathering of girls who were representatives from all parts of the country and only a small po rti on of those who wear the arrow, gave me a thrill that J had not experienced since the day of my initiation. To hear all th e songs, the toasts and the ta lks from our dear founders was indeed a treat and the passing of the loving cup while we sang our loving cup song left a lasting impression on my mind . And as I left the banquet I wondered how anybody could be as happy over being a n as I was.
MISSOURI A.
WHEN HONOR STUDENTS MARCHED
As this was the first time I had attended convention, naturally nearly every aspect seemed to me important and it is dif!icult to pick out anyone as standing out from the others. However, I would say
that I was very deeply impressed when so many of our Pi Phis marched by in the line made up of members of national honor fraternities. Surely one of Pi Beta Phi's highest aims i. high scholarship.
MICHIOAN A.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PERSONALITY
Never before my trip to convention did I realize how great a part personality plays in our Byes. I will always remember our Grand Ollicers for their lovable selves. They embodied dignity, poise, executive ability together with sweet, charming personalities. They made me realize more fully the det:per meaning of IT B <I> and the extensiveness of its influence.

SE 'ITl.EMENT SCHOOL AS A VOLUNT O\RV \VORK
After hearing Miss Lafigmaid's report on the Settlement School and listening to such interesting stories of our School from Miss Bishop I know our one big piece of work is very much worth while. And I learned from reports that the School was growing faster than I had realized. Another fact that impressed me concerning the School was the realization that it is run on money which is given absolutely voluntarily.
PENNSYLVANIA A.
STRENGTH AND SCOPE OF THE FRATERNITY
As I sat in the national convention, I was impressed with the great size and strength of IT B <1>. I realized then that I had never before fully appreciated what it means to be a national fraternity. The great number of Pi Phis assembled at Charlevoix, the many states and the many colleges and universities represented, the recognition given our convention by outsiders through visitors, letters, and telegrams, and the earnestness and loyalty of the national officers who so wisely governed our convention, combined to impress upon me how widely the influence of n B <I> is felt and how truly great an organization it is. And with this impression came a sense of the obligation which rests upon each of us.
IOWA A .
INSPIRATION OF MODEL INITIATION
One of the most impressive moments to me when I attended my first convention was the model initiation. Never before had I been so much awakened to the ideals and aims of the fraternity as when I
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
heard Oll r own grand officers repeating the ce remony. Those vows, comi ng from the mouths of such noble women who have done so much for n 4> , took on a new and deeper meaning and made me realize morc than ever what it is to be a n cfJ.
\Vh en I saw the vast number of gi rl s and women all wearing the arrow and feeling as I did I thought how wonderful such a frat ernity is in inspiring so many from all parts of the count ry with its high ideals of womanhood.
ILLINOI S n.
ALL WITH THE SAME IDEAL S
\Vhat impressed me most at convention was the fact tha t more than three hundred women and girls coming from eve ry part of the co untry, from different environments, baving different interests, standards and ideas, could come together with a true sisterly feeling, with real sympathy and interest in one another and with one common aim-that of service in and development of IT This spirit was the keynote of convention and everyone present must have felt it. Introdu ctions were unnecessary. We felt that we had long known each other and conversation never lagged when Pi Phis were together. WIS CONS IN B.
OUR FOUR CONVENTION FOUNDERS
I wonder if anyone who was at Charlevoix, can ever forget the thrill of watching four of our Founders walk up to the platform a few moments after the official opening of conven ti on. To many of us, I believe, our Founders had seemed very unreal-names, n ot people-until on that July morning we saw them- dear, lovable women. I thought of the debt of gratitude that every II <I> owes to our twelve pioneers of the Greek-letter world and wished that every one could have the privilege that I enjoyed-that of meeting and knowing our Founders.
MINNESOTA
A.
SERVICE-OUR AIM
To give, brieBy, the thing which impressed me most, I would go back to the opening meeting, at which Mrs. Tannahill deliv er ed her welcoming address. The keynote of her address-Service, in its truest significance--awakened in me a sense of our obligations as members of II B '1>, which had never struck me quite as forcibly before. Aside from its scholastic and other "excuses for being," n B 4>, as a national organization has assumed responsibilities, the
results of which will be far·reaching and lasting. Tiling for its goal the aim of serving others less fortunate than o=elves, and of representing a vital factor in the betterment of human welfare, II B <I> and its true spirit can never die I Turning to the alunonre clubs and our chapters, we found that there was not one representative who did not bring some report of service rendered by her individual organization. Each active chapter and club seemed not only to have caught the ideal of the fraternity, itself, but to have put it in practice in many ways. Furthermore, where could we find a more living example of unselfish service, than we see exhibited by our Grand Council? Devoting their valuable time and energies toward the development of their ideal, of service, they stand as living symhols of what our fraternity represents. And, from all these comes to us, as active meIl1bers of II B oJ, this challenge--from the examples set for us, and the ideals handed down to us, can we gain a true idea of the value of our services? It is our duty to make ourselves, our chapter, and our fraternity a true factor for service, ready to answer when the call comes, and prepared to face our responsibility, whatever may be the outcome. Are those of us who feLt the thrill of Mrs. Tannahill's appeal prepared to be of service, and to make ourselves worthy of the highest ideal. of IT D 4>?
VIRGINIA B.
OUR ALUMNA< ATTITUDE
One of the things that left a lasting inprint upon me was the attitude of the alumnre toward the members of the active chapters. Heretofore it has been my natural assumption that after a woman had spent four years in active fraternity life, although she would always cherish her fraternity, its friendships and its memories, she would lose interest in the younger women who were being added to it, every year. I felt that by not coming into direct contact with an active chapter, she would lose the viewpoint of the younger, more inapulsive and inexperienced fraternity girl of today. At convention this false inapression was destroyed and I saw our II <I> alumnre in an entirely difftrent light. I met older women from every section of the country who were equally as eager to recognize my sisterhood to them as they were that of the members of their own chapters. This made me feel that the word sisler llO od really has a vital significance and that the alumnre of In B <I> are ready to acknowledge that,
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
although we are young in fraternity life, we have the same aims, the same ideals, and a common bond that not even time can weaken .
VIRGINIA A.
THE EXTENSION COMMITTEE'S SERVICE
Perhaps the work done by the Extension Committee impressed me as much as any of the other work. The wonderful depth of lmowledge, the care exercised in behalf of the fraternity and the amount of work accomplished is remarkable. Allow me to tell anyone who fears that we are extending too rapidly, that as long as that work is in the hands of such a capable committee we need feel no app rehension as to the outcome . It can not help but be right .
COLUMBIA A.
CO-OPERATION IN WORLD FORCES
The wonderful spirit of cooperation that seemed to permeate the whole atmosphere is the thing that impressed me most at conven ti on . It was not merely a spirit of cooperation among the members of convention; but with all great and good forces in the world at large.
VERMONT B.
MEETING OrnER PI PHIS
What impressed me most at co nvention? The Pi Phis themselves. You see, our chapter is rath er isolated. There are no other chapters very near us, and as we very seldom rece ive visits from other Pi Phis in New Orleans, it was a wonderful experience to us of Louisiana A to know Pi Phis from all over the United States.
When we left Chicago, on our way to Charlevoix, we f elt that convention had really started and we began to experience a real national fraternal feeling which we had never lmown befo re It was then that we got our first inkling of what other Pi Phis were like. Our days at convention were wonderful, revealing instances of what fraternity ties mean.
On the whole, this real sisterly feeling which united girls from "N orth, South, East, and West , into a group all working for the same standards and ideals of womanhood was, to me, the most striking thing about convention.
LoUISIANA A.
MAGNITUDE OF SETTLEWENT SCHOOL
The convention at Charlevoix in 1921 was the first one I ever attended, so I was most impressi onable. In looking back upon it, I
seem to have been most deeply impressed by the greatness of our fraternity as a whole. I never realized until then how large our fraternity is and what capable women we have in our officers. They seemed to personally embody our fraternity ideals as well as prove them in unselfish labour.
Being a Canadian the extent of our work in the Settlement School was comparatively unknown to me until convention. It means so much more to have met those connected with the School and to have heard their personal account of the work. The greatest impression and the hardest to define was the general spirit of convention. It was more than uplifting to see all those Pi Beta Phis who are working for OUf common interest-the fraternity and all that it means.
ONTARIO A.
PASSINC THE LoVING CUP
As the passing of the wassail bow I at the feasts of old symbolized the comradery of the medieval knights, so the passing of the silver loving cup at our 10rmal banquet at the 1921 convention symbolized the sincere friendship and the common interests of all those joined in II ocJo. It was in personal contact, however, that we found the real meaning of all that the loving cup typified. It was an inspiration to meet the Pi Phis at convention from the four Founders whom we were so fortunate as to have with us, to some of the enthu!ijastic freshmen from various colleges-to know that interest in 11 4» has no age limits.
ILJ.INOIS A.
GETfING THE NATIONAL VISION
National Vision had been little more than a term, vague in my understanding, but connected with Founders, august Grand Officers, and the memorizing of a chapte r roll. How I wish every single wearer of the arrow could have been at convention that the true conception of IT B <I> might have been as forcibly revealed to each I

friendship, and social service," do we wonder that thousands of hearts beat as one under the golden emblem of II B
TEXAS A.
OUR GRAND PRESIDENT
Perhaps the one thing that stood out most clearly for me at conventiaD was the wonderful personality of our Grand President, Mrs. Tannahill, and her inspiring address on the "Ideals of n B 4>," given on the second morning of convention.
NEVADA A.
A LATER PERSPECTIVE
When one has just come back from her very first II 4> convention, her impressions are very likely to be scrambled and futuristic. The clever songs originated by the Newcomb girls, the way the California girls could swim, our own May L. Keller Hat large," or even the weather probably featured largely in early convention memories. But after time has lengthened the perspective and our thoughts are collected in their various pigeon holes, the thing that I shan remember above all others is that delightful sense of IIone-ness" that came after the impressive installation of our grand officers, the unanimous choice of all Pi Phis.
ILLINOIS Z.
NATION AL SPIRIT UPPERMOST
The most impressive thing at convention was the spirit of interest and friendliness existing everywhere. Grand Council was interested in the welfare of the fraternity as a whole; the alumnre in the active chapters and the clubs; the delegates in the chapters represented and in learning their methods and means of dealing with prohlems of group life. Friendships were quickly formed-the arrow acting as a universal basis 'of fellowship. Of course, there was a spirit of good-natured rivalry between the chapters but this was quickly forgotten when questions of national importance arose, for all were enthusiastically working for the best interests of the national organization, n B Fraternity.

PANHELLENIC AT MIAMI
During the Christmas holidays of 1919, all national fraternity women at Miami, Elorida, were asked to meet for the purpose of forming an association. About fifteen women attended this meeting and today the membership has grown to seventy·five.
For some time the dues were used to support a French orphan but later the club to help a cause nearer home, with the result that last year we sent a scholarship girl to college. We are all proud of Miss Nina McAdam and she is evidently very proud of us, for she apologizes profusely when her repo rt shows a mark as low as 93.
This scholarship amounts to $200, one-half of which is given, · and the other half, loaned, until the recipient has finished co llege. Last year we raised the fund by entertainments which the Panhellenic undertook most enthusiastically. Recently we made $550 by selling tickets for one of the local theaters for one evening's performance. With this amount we are hoping to send two girls next year, etc., until we are able to enter a freshman as each senior graduates.
II B 4> is well represented at the PanheIleni.c meetings with the ten resident members in Miami and the many visitors who come down during the winter season.
At a luncheon held last .winter, twenty·six Greek·letter fraternities and as many COlleges answered the roll call. We are always delighted to welcome any tourist, and last winter approximately one hundred names were added to our guest book. Besides extending a cordial invitation through the press we have a book in one of the hotels for the benefit of the visitors. In it are recorded all the names of frater-

nily women in Miami with their addresses and telephone numbers. This book is prefaced by the request that all visitil]g fraternity women call on their sisters and become a member of Qur Association.
Panhellenie has two meetings each month: one for business followed by a social hour, and the other a luncheon which is enlivened in many ways. Songs of each fraternity are sung, and such interesting persons as Mrs Robert M. Seymour, Mrs. Reginal Owen and Mary C. McDougal, a poet of some note, have spoken to us. The latter su rprised us one day with a number of "Panhellenic Jingles." Our singers quickly t ook up the call and now Mary's jingles are heard on . every apt occasion.

The Southern Hieh1ander and His Homeland
By JOHN C CAlfPHELL
Published by Russell Sage Foundation, New York. 1921. Price $3.50 Net
Reviewed by SARAH POMEROY RuCG
Many volumes have been written on the southern mountains and their inhabitants and in consequence many fallacie! are current about this section of the country and the people who dwell therein. Writers
218 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
of romances fascinated by the simple beauty of Highland life have over-emphasized certain feature s, and authors of more serious books have been prone to generalize, have failed to make distinctions between the urban and rural population and often have published inaccurate statements. This unfortunate pUblicity has given rise to a difficult situation which every mountain worker has been forced to fa ce more or less frequently. The mountaineer has suffered so much in consequence that his natural suspicion of the people in the outside world has been intensified and because of this many trusted and well-informed mountain workers have hesitated to print their impressions and observations.
Such a worker was John C. Campbell, author of The Southern H ighlander and his Homeland} who labored for more than twentyfive years among the people of the Southern Highlands and who was at the time of his death secretary of the Southern Highland Division of the Russell Sag e Foundati on. A gai n and again he was ur ged to write the results of his experiences but always he refused realizing as he did "the difficulties in the way of writing of a people who, while forming a definite geographical and racial group were by no means socially homogeneous ." Not until the last year of his life did he consent to edit his mass of notes and material for publication. Death came before his manuscript was completed but it was so thoroughly outlined that his wife was able to prepare it for publication. The result is a volume of great value to all who are in any way associated with work in the Southern Highlands and one of genuine interest to everyone who is desirous of obtaining a fair and just estimate of the peQple and conditions in this particular part of our country.
Mr. Campbell deals exhaustively with the backgrounds and history of the population of the Southern Highlands, describing most entertainingly the pioneer routes of travel and early settlements and tracing the ancestry of the present population. He concludes that lithe vast majority of the Highlanders are descendants of settlers who were native born, and who, by their common interests hardships and struggles, were blended into a homogeneous people-the type which has come to be called 'American.'" He then pictures most realistically and sympathetically the present Highland population, discussing at length the Highlander's individualism in its various aspects, his religious life, his home conditions and health.

Illn time and the time in some places is at hand, the isolation of the Highlands will be overcome hy railroads and good thoroughfares and their wild beauty disfigured by commercial exploitation, while the Highlander himself, his individualism and his picturesqueness gone, will become no better, no worse, but quite as uninteresting as other men.
flHe who stands where once the Tallulah River in northern Georgia leaped, a foaming torrent of waterfalls and rapids through a gray gorge whose steep sides were set with moss and bloom, cannot but regret the passing of that beauty. He knows that the electricity generated by that immense volume of water passes a hundred miles or more to cities which have never seen its source but something has gone from out the land-not only of beauty but of strength
lilt is the part of those, both native and foreign, who have the interest of the Highland country at heart, to see that all that is strong and fair in that life is not drained away to other regions. It should be a reservoir clean and beautiful in itself, ministering to its own needs yet the source from which the exhausted pools of urban life may find renewal and refreshment."
In that passage, it seems to the reviewer, is a message for our fraternity and a challenge to us to continue the work we are trying to accomplish in one little district of the Southern Highlands in such a manner that we may in truth make the place in which we are par-ticulaTly--concemed a "reservoir clean and beautiful in itself yet a source of refresholent" to the world outside.
The hook thoughtful and careful reading from all of us who a r e trying to better conditions in the Southern Highlands.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
EDITORIALS
A PERFECT RECORD for chapter letters was made during 1920-31. Everyone of the sixty-two chapters of Pi Beta Phi sent in chapter letters in time to be printed in the December, March and June issues. A similar record should he our goal for this year. Please remember to make your chapter letter of interest to those outside of your chapter, balancing chapter news with the news of the college.
THE PI BETA PHILE is an exceedingly interesting sheet which has come to the Editor's desk from Arizona A. This Volume 1, Nurnher 1 is really an enlarged chapter letter in the form of a n ewspaper touching points of interest concerning the local chapter and the · University of Arizona. Among the topics discussed are: Pi Beta Phi Convention, Pi Phi House, Scholarship, Pan hellenic Affairs, Athletics in the U. of A., The Year in Society, a discussion of the educational work of Pi Beta Phi, several poems, and a list of aJumnre and active members of Arizona A.
In justification of the pubHcation the editors say: "In offe ring this, the first number of the Pi Beta Phile to our alumnre and friends, we have a two-fold purpose-first, to tell you what we have dODe and something of what we hope to do. And second, for our own good in taking an account of our achievements and failures so that we may profit thereby."
Such a publication might ' prove very valuable in membership campaigning where !lopen campaigning" is allowed.
LOYALTY
TO OUR SOLE FRATERNITY JEWELER should be emphasized in every chapter and should he practiced by every individual member of IT B <]). An incident which occur red in one of the western chapters recently shows how one chapter dealt with the situation in an amusing manner. It seems that a representative of a firm had called at the chapter-house but had been plainly told that nothing would be purchased except from L. G. Balfour, our official jeweler. Evidently that representative spread the word among brother salesmen that that particular chapter was difficult to handle, because the next iTaternity jeweler's . salesman who appeared at the house a week later called when all of the young women were at morning classes. The house mother admitted the stranger who asked if he
migbt wait in the parlor to see the president of the chapter who was then at classes . Thinlting the young man was ' merely a cal1er, tbe house mother excused herself and left to attend to some necessary duties. Half an hour later she was greatly cbagrined to find that the young man had taken possession of the parlor and library of the chapter-house and had put on display his entire line of fraternity jewelry. Just then the chapter members returned from class and immediately ordered the young man to pack his displays and to leave the bouse as they were pledged to buy only from their official jeweler and would not even look at the agressive salesman's wares.
The fol1owing extract from "Minutes of the Interfraternity Conference" published in the Convrn/ion Daily of A r d, was preceeded by a statement of how several years ago a combination of some six or eight of the oldest fraternity jewelry manufactures was effected and a firm in Detroit selected by them to sink illes of the coat of arms and insignia of every fraternity in the country but how that combination is now almost dead: "Its members began cutting each other's throats the instant it was formed. It constituted as fine an aggregation of pirates as ever scuttled a ship. Having no business ethics to waste on the fraternities whose insignia and emblems they pirated they were true to their natures in trying to undennine each other_ It has sought to drive out the only New England manufacturer. and has only made him the stronger thereby. This man., together with one manufacturer in New York City, 3re the only reliab1e manufacturing jewelers we have been able to find. Those in Philadelphia, Columbus, and Detroit are not reliable and most of them are not genuine manufacturers but only selling agents. The business ethics of these firms has been very bad in the past. Licenses when revoked have been disregarded and efforts made to unload large stocks of pretended manufactured goods have been invariably the rule. All efforts to get them to give up the hubs of their dies in return · for reimbursement of their cost have failed. Their salesmen have endeavored to 5011 regulation badges and insignia at any price in an effort to illscreillt the officially made and distributed goods. Lead has been placed in ooncealed pockets within the badges to give them weight and slabs of gold planed down to save stock and the whole marked or sold for 14-karat gold by some of Shese manufacturers.
ClThese facts we can prove at any time we are challenged to do so in any court of law or equity these gentlemen may sele-ct a!I their

tribunal. We have within our keeping the names and addresses of the men whose business ethics and standing are guarantees of good faith and fair dealing. We wish we might say the same of those who condemned themselves by the lack of such."
A RECOMMENDATION OF INTEREST TO IT B was brought before National Paohellenic Congress for consideration at the recent meeting in Indianapolis. The recommendation read as follows: "Resolved that the date upon which a national collegiate organization officially adopts a Greek-letter name shall be recognized as the date of its establishment as a college fraternity."
This was ruled out of order and no action was taken but the ensuing discussion brought out the fact that difficulty has arisen in many city Panhellenics over the question of which fraternity was first established as a national collegiate orgauization. It was stated that A IT and M were founded in 1851 and 1852 respectively and many fraternity women therefore could not understand the reason for placing IT B first on all fraternity lists when it was not founded until 1867 and did not adopt a Greek name until 1888.
Realizing this tendency to misunderstanding IT B some years ago included in her Handbook of Information for undergraduates (which is used as the basis for study for her annual examination), the following question and note of explanation in the section devoted to Panhellenic matters :
Question 9. What is the fraternity recogni%cd by National Panhellenic as the oldest fraternity organization which has from its fonnding had the policy of extension. Ani. n B •.•
• Note. AlthoD:gh n B (» was the first society for women modeled alter the men's fraternities and was also the first to establish chapters thus becoming. national, .A 4 n was founded in 185 I and .. ){ in These societies reo mained locals antil after 11)00. H pp. 10, 13.
Every member of IT B initiated the publication of the Handbook has been thoroughly informed on this subject and understands that IT B lays no claim to being the oldest collegiate organization bearing a Greek -letter name, but does maintain that it to"S tn. first of the collegiate for womm now existing wnich was organiled with tire original purpose 0/ becoming a national body q.nd nor tv" since dn:eloptd along these lines.
Since there may be some misapprehension on this point on the part of older women whose undergraduate f rateruity life antedates our
present system of fraternity examinations, this detailed explanation is made to clarify the situation. The attention of the alumnre is especially called to these statements as many seem to be co nfused as to the exact status of II B
But after all, too much stress should not be placed upon "how many years old are we?"-but rather upon "how many years young?" In this day of fraternity expansion, vitality and youth are necessary in every organization. Hence, all of those fraternities whose birthdays fall in the third quarter of the last century need to drink constantly at the Fountain of Perpetual Youth less they become ossified and fail to keep step with the younger generation of college fraternities.

If you have a microscope or are willing to buy one will you please send it at once to Phyllis Higinbotham at the Settlement School, Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Miss Higinbotham writes:
One of our crying needs has jest been driven borne to me thi, morning. the necessity (or a microscope and examinations made on the spot witbout wa.iting {or the un cer tain delay oC a mail a day service and sending across the slate.
One of our high school boys has just been in to tell me thnt his baby brother htlS dyplheria and they are afraid there isn't much h ope (or he has been sickly and htls no resistance. An older brother who has been working in the lumber camp where there were several casu has probably been tbe carrier (rom whom he has ca ught it and I (eel it is so necessary to have all the children.' throat. cultured before they are allowed back in school in order to prevent an epidemic.

The snapshots of convention which have been used in this issue were furnished by Sophie P. Woodman, 561 West 186th St., New York City and by Mr. Orpheus M. Schantz, 10 S. La Salle St., Chicago. If you desire prints of these pictures or of the many other ones which they have you can obtain them by writing to Miss Wood· man and Mr. Schantz. Mr. Schantz has a very excellent print of the whole convention group which is very clear in detail and which is

At. the recent National Panhellenic Congress held in Indianapolis the following rule was repealed, but the Congress went on record as discountenancing high school fraternities or secret socidies: "After January, 1916 , no girl who becomes a member of an organization bearing a Greek name, and called a fraternity or a sorority, shalI be eligible to a National Panhellenic fraternity. This is exclusive of Junior College, or Professional fraternities."
Money may be made for the Settlement S ch oo l by the sale of "Blossom" hair nets sold by Waugh & Company, Woolworth Bldg., New York City. Mrs. E. G. Hinrichs (L u ci le Cozier, Wisconsin A) , who is general sales manager for the company writes: HIt has occurred to me that various chapters and alumnre clubs might raise money by selling 'Blossom' hair nets for the II <l> Settlement School. We are not ofliering tEem for sale through stores or jobbers, but through direct ma.il sales and throu gh girl agents in schools, oflices, colleges, etc. We now have agents in several of the women's co lleges and are just arranging an exclusive agency for Connecticut in favor of the Vassar Salary Endowment Fund."

This hIlA been a very bu.sy summer and faU for Ohio B. The membership campaign now over, we are beginning to realile our dreams for a n + hou se Last spring before the close of college the campaign for a IT 4' house was started The alumnae and the active Pi Phis had joint meetings and it was suggested that the ruumne buy the bouse, providing the active girls would furnish it. This suggestion wu readily received and the active members o( Ohio B with the pledges began to work. The plan followed was that each alumna give one hundred dollars, due in four payments. The active cha.pter voted that each girl give twenty -five dollars, payable at the beginning of the fan Rmester. Many schemes for making this amount were devised by the girls, some working and others coaxing father.
Not being able to find a house that was suitable (or a chapter as large as OUr!, we rented an apartment and are continuing to work for our goal.

On the c-.mpus all eyes are turned toward the stadi um and the new woman's building. It is hard for the students to r ealize that these buildings so long ,ought for are under way and that each day they are nearer completion .
The Pi Phis have hlld a most s uccessful membership campaign. We hIVe fifteen fine gids who are already showing their IT spirit by entering camp us activities.
With twenty -thr ee active members we enthusiastically entered the member ship cnmpaign this fall.

The rooms, which last year had been, though cozy, but a cellar, have been transformed into a most attractive apartment, artistic in every detail. If for no other reason, we are anxious to make this a record year to show our alumnae our appreciation of all that they have done for DS.
The alumnae advisory board began activity very early and has met with the active chapter and the scholarship committee to discuss our problems and make plans (or the year.
Although we lost some very strong girls in our seniors and those who have left for other colleges, we are very fortunate in having three fine new transfers, Margaret Frey, California r, Katherine Aljoe and Cleo White both Pennsylvania 6.

Now that college is functioning again after a long, happy boliday, we are rapidly getting back into the familiar swing of university life, and feel quite as if the even tenor of our ways had never been broken.
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
The first two weeks of college were very busy because. although the local PanheUenic set matriculation doy as pledge day, IT B and three other women's fraternities who prefer a period of membership campaigning before sending invitations, set a common pledge day for themselves. October 16. By this arrangement the fraterniti es wh o are in favor of matriculation day pledging 'ent out their invitations on that day, while those who wanted an opportunity to entertain prospective members, obtained it.
All of our ten invitations have been accepted. Columbia A is particularly fortuDate in having am o ng the freshmen this year four llJ.ittle sisters" and a "little cousin." On October 21, we will pledge at our formal ceremony: Pauline Ayres. Margaret Bowie. Ruth Foster, Julliette Hanfo rd, Gladys Hughs, Blanche Ludlow, Nell Millspaugh , Jean St ophlet, Anna Waring, Katherine Wr enn.
The first party tbis faU was tb e us ual Panhellenic open house, held on matriculation day. This was followed by several teas, one of which was given by the wife of one of o ur deans, a formal dance, and a final luncheon. The last, which was given by the alumna!, was one of the nicest parties we have ever been able to offer our freshmen. It was progressive, in fonr cO!,lTses, each a t the home of an alumna Several chapte r girls were s t a ti oned at eac h house and the freshmen were brought to them in turn The girls were particularly inter· ested in the second course, for Mrs. Reinsch, the hostess, had Chinese food served in a most attractive O r iental fashion by two Chinamen in their gorgeous national dress.
All our l ast year's graduates have been to see the chapter this fall. Ethel Johnson, whose home is in Philadelphia, has been visiting one of the active girls , while Martha Waring and Catherine Tonge live in W ashington. The latter is running an attractive lunch room in one of the college buildings. for the use of the and profes!o:ors, in additi on to her work as public- school teacher. Some of the Pi Phis carryon the work during the part of th e day when she is unable to be th ere. What we sho1lld do without the delicious things to eat we g et at the "Rabbit Holeu we can't imagine.
Helen Faris Meyers, who was married last June, has returned to college and intends to continue her work for a degree. Unfortunately however, several of last year's initiates are not with us this yea r. Vivian Bradley is at Berkeley, Ethlyn Bradley is at Southern Methodi st University, and Bea tri ce Mason has r etumtd to Ann Arbor, where she spent her freshman year.
With most of our chtJ.pttr back and in good working order. and with ten of the fulest pledges that co ul d be imagined, we are :mticipating a most successful year

The first Saturda.y after we returned, we initiated the sophomores we had pledged the previoull year. Only two of our girls failed to relurn, Kalherine Smith and Marion Schwart%. and we hope that even now Marion may be able to come back after Christmas. Initiation was particularly lovely, improverl as it was by suggestions from convention. W'hen initiation was over, we celebrated with a huge cooky-shine. Of course, the Balfour Cup graced the feast. One of the nicest things about it all was tbe fact that we had five of o ur alumnI!! with us.
This year, PanheUenic instituted a new custom, to see if a better spirit of democracy and a more intimate acquaintance with the whole freshman etass could not be brought about. To accompJish thi end, each of the fraternities in the Pines held open house for the freshmen on Saturday, October 8, from {our to six. As th ere were so mnny girls to visit, it was managed by a rel ay system About twenty girls stayed in each house ten minutes, at the end of which time whistle was blown and another twenty girls took their place. In this way the cbapters could be met as a who1e. The question of fraternities was as usaal a closed topic The plan worked 11I0llt successfully, and 1 believe the freshmen enjoyed it thoroughly, altbough it was a most strenuo u s performance for Othe fraternity girls.

Mrs. Elma Root Van Buskirk, our dean of women last year, resigned in June, but was urg ed to rec onside r, and we have her with us again.
The first week of college was devoted to the Y. W. C. A., none of the frate rn ity w omen wearing their badges. In that week came the annual watermelon feed and the president's reception , with vesper services on Sunday. At all of these functions each freshman girl was Ubig-s i ltered" by an upperclassman.

With the opening of conege the fraternities on the Minnesota campus have aU entered upon a feverish membership campaign extending over a period of two weeks. Pan hellenic allows thirteen parties, consisting of eight InncheoDs and five teas and into each party we attempt to inject the maximum amount of originality and enthusiasm. Some of our luncheons have carried out various color motifs while others have been 3ppropriate to the season, as a football luncheon. Our butterfly tea, at which we were hostess to nearly forty freshmen, was followed by a circus and a Hallowe'en tea. The alumnA: entertained for us at a formal tea given away [rom the house, and the series of parties was coneluded by the annual black and white cabaret, fonowed by a five-day period of silence.
Local Panhellenic is proud to report that through its efforts, three more national fro.ternities have entered Minnesota. Since spring, X 0, A X 0 and 1: K have colonized and formed splendid chapters, bringing the number of national fraternities on the campus to fifteen. At the suggestion of a visiting grand officer, Panhellenic this year is going to make a determined effort to devise some new system for our membership campaign, endeavoring to make it shorter, less feverish, and less detriment.al to the other college acti.ities of the fraternity girls and the freshmen. Under the superv-ision of Panhellenic we shall continue our HAll-University" teas given by the various fraternities in rotation.
On November 10, the active and alnmnz chapters will unite in giving our annual bauar. The resident alumn:e have been divided into small groups which meet regularly once a week and spend the day sewing for the bazaar, whi.1e the active chapter girls each contribute articles made during the Jummer. In addition the active chapter takes charge of the sale of tickets and makes arrangements for the dance in the evening.
The opening three days of the first quarter were given over to a campaign for s ub scriptions to the Minnerota D4i1y. Each lraternity was represented by a

Besides this meeting, we had several parties and picnics, and a chapter reunion at one of the country clubs near MI. Pleasant.
Now that our membership campaign is over, we are settled down and hard a t work We had a successful season, and feel quite proud of our seven new p l edges.

The campus is now alive with new spirit Jlnd the students are restless l y awaiting the actual beginning of college. Crowds of students new and old ktep pouring in.
Amid all of this was the excitement of membership campaign. wbich lasted here only one week. We kept in touch with desirable girls all summer, so th at
it was not very bard for us to decide from the multitude of freshmen which onu we should be proud to caU Pi Phil, We entertained with many .1I.irs of various dCiCriptjons: garden parties, malinecs, line parties. slumber parties, I uncheaDs, dinners. and dances.
As a result, we are exccedioe-Iy proud of our twelve star pledges, whom we hne already named "Happy Twelve." from their beaming countenanCCI as the wine and blue ribbons were pinned on.
Many of our .tumOR: were thoughtful enough to return and assilt in the campaign for members. Among them were: Mrs. Roy Pratt, Mrs. Homer HirT-cl, Cindy. Madigan, Netabel Soutcr, Willens Owen and Mary Douglas.
We arc comfortably situated in our temporary home which we will occupy only (or a few weeks longer. when we will move into a delightful new home which is being built for us. It is a lovely place overlooking the campus.

Local Panhellenic has formulated a new system of membership campaigning: no definite dates may be made for week day•• all parties must be Dulch treat, informal hospitalities may be extended only {or week-ends, no fraternity may spend more tban seventy-five dollars on formal parties for prospective members. and no morc than three such parties may be given.
Two pledge days are to be observed, the first for sophomores, in October, the secnnd (or uppercla.ssmen, in De<:ember. This change in system decreased the usu:l1 excitement at the beginning oC the year, as it brought in no new pledges, but it was made Cor the better interests of the college.
Our latest interest is the fraternity room-another requirement of all chapters here. Oun is just across from the campus, in our president's bascment, so is very convenient.

We have taken & definite step toward So new era of promise b, making arrangements for the purchase of a home of our own, and we f eel that we have a new and permanent interest in the chapte r. Our alumnae approve oC our action we very much appreciate their cooperation. Our new home, the former residence of the president of th e college, is a Inrge, substantially can· structed three·story house set well back in grounds th.:lt can bin an unusual variety of trees, shrubs, and fl owers. The location is desirnble, being three blocks from the main part of the city and fifteen minutes' walk from the college buildings. The interior of the house required little changing to make it entirely luitahle for fraternity life, but a little later we intend to have a sun room and driveway constructed on the north side.
So {sr this quarter we have found our time entirely taken with the man, duties of gelting settled in our chapter-house and taking up our studies and campus activites where we left them last June. We have not been too busy, however. to give some of our attention to the new girls entering college.

The library 'ystem and supervision of ce rt ai n campus affairs well u conductin g the rules of the honor system, are duties of this committee.
The interest of the ca mpus is centered at present, upon th e erection of the I Jenry Morse Stephens Memorial. This is to be a students' union building, where all members of the university are to find a social meeting place. All the offices for the students' acti vities will be rituated in this building, as well as va.rlons lounging and reading rooms. It is hoped that its elitab1ishment will st imulate the "get-together" spi rit 10 essential in a un iversity of tbis size, and will make for tbe consolidation o f the students u a body.
The glories which the varsity football team won for us last year, have so far continued in the program of this years gamts . To further the spirit of and to prove our undying gratitude to the men who lought and died in the war, the erection of a million dollar stadium i s being planned.

TEN WAYS TO KILL AN ORGANIZATION
1. Don't go to the meetings.
2. I ( you do go. go late.
3. If the wealh er doesn't suit you, don't think of going.
4 . If you do a meeting, find fault with the work of the officers and members.
s. Never accept office, al it is easier to criticir.e than to do things.
6. Get sore it you are not appointed on a committee, but if you are, do not attend committee meetings.
7. If asked by the chairman to give your opinion on some matter, tell him you have nothing to say. After the meeting tell everyone how things should have been done.
8. Do nothing more than absolutely necessary, but when members use their ability to help matters along, howl that the institutioD is run by a clique.
9. Hold back your does, or don't pay at all.
10. Don't bother about gettin&, new members. uLet Georie do it."

B an ta's Greek Exchange states that:
Th ere are 1,176 high er institutions of learning in the United States. Thi s number includes all the universit ies, colleges, profess i ona l schools, co ll eges of agricultural, mechanical , technical and mining science, normAl sch ools, th eological seminRries and junior colleges.
These facts published in The Carnation of Delta Sigma Phi were gleaned from a timely study of teachers' salaries in certain endowed co lle ges and universities:
Salaries paid to 8.540 college teachers, ranging from instructors to full prof essors, in 259 institutions in all parts of the country in 1914-15 are compared with salarin paid 1919-2:0. In 1919-2:0, 534 per cent r e-::e ived from $90 1 to per year Of those receiving over $2,100, about 6 per cent received more thAn $4,200 a year. Only 92 received over $6,000. These salaries include an increase of 25 per cent between 1914 and 1919. ltfennwhile, !lccording to the United States Commissio ner of Labor, the cost of liviog bas incre!lsed not less than 80 to 90 per cent Sixty-one per cent of the teachers reporting were married.
Stady shows tbat teachers' salaries formed an average of 4i per cent of the total expenditures of the institations reporting, Since 1914-15 expenses of

cperating the physical plants inc reased 14 per ccnt while saJaries increased 42.6 per cent.

A report from Hudson, Mich., states that at a recent celebration in honor of the memory of Will Carleton , the beloved Michigan poet, George S. Richarrls, of Toledo, announced that he would contribute $5.000 toward a loan fund for needy college student I to be administered in memory of the poet who himself had great difficulty in obtaining an education. [t was nnnounced that plans are under way to place a tablet on the original Hillsdale county poorhouse. said to have furnished the inspiration for Carleton'S most famous poe m, uO"er th e IliII." Th e motion picture adapted from the poem and bearing itl name was shown during the celebration at Hudson theatres.
Other fraternities might follow the suggestion contained in this clipping taken from Banta's Greek Exchange:
K A 9 hns a chapter house bureau of the service board which has gathered together a Hbf'ary o{ clippings, documenu and the like which is loaned to the building or fioucing committee of nny of its preparing to build.
In speaking of the scholarship funds of various organizations, Tlu Cadu&e1tS of Kappa Sigma points out that at least one-third of the women's fraternities maintain a scholarship fund, in some form or other, for the purpose of helping students through college and urges the men not to be outdone by their sister·organizations. The Caduceus says:
An inquiry conducted by the Interfraternity Conference not long ago disclosed the fact that. very considerable percentage of fraternity men-in lOme colleges as much U one-third-failed to graduate from college. Among the reasons assigned f,or the failure at these men to complete their college course, financial diffic;ulties took first place. Many of the colleges are already supplied with a considerable number o{ scholarships, the majority of which are ofl'tred
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
as prize. for scholastic attainment or as inducement. to attract incoming sto.dent.. There are too few scholarships to aid those who arc already in college, but who, through calamity in their families, death of parent., or financial r everses or othe r unavoidable circumstances, are forced to withdraw, when a r elatively small stipend would enable them to complete their course, and thus better fit themselve s for the station they hope to assume in the world's aHain.
The Endowment Fund of Kappa Sigma contemplate. a provision for suc h students. Up to the present, however. the size of the fund has not warranted its use, as income only is available for lucb a purpose. It is hoped that in the near future the fund will reach 5uch p roportion that a beiPnnin& can be made.

Arrangements for the trander of the library and the preparatiG-n of a complete catalogue of its contents are now being comp l eted by George Bruce, secretary of Beta Theta Pi, and the library officials. Full details of the final housing of the famous library, of interest to all fraternity m('n, will be given in a later issue of this bulletin.

According to Banta's Greek Exchange:
The first national sorority to enter Willi am and Mary is X 0 , which installed its charte r on May 30, by the abiOrption of B :E X. This leaves four local sororities in the field still at William and Mary.
The Kappa Alpha J ournal says:
In the college, we should be (and we believe tbat we are) a force for the right, a power for intelligent progress. We shonld not (and we believe that we do not) exert an entirely selfish in8aence. The Kappa Alpha Order stands for democ r acy (in the best sense of that word) and for the advancement of all desirahle interests of the institutions in which its chapters are. Our hope is to be an aid, not a hindrance; an o rganiza tion 0 '( service, not a source of decentralization. A chapter that selfishly advance. its own interests against the interests o( the coUege i. not in accord with the higber conception of the Orders doty.

the societies of which we are an inseparable and significant part. We sbould cndeavor to become indi.spensable.
No fraternity which inculcates snobbishness has the right to endure. No fraternity which labors exclusively for its own ends is worthy of the name. No fraternity which makes of itself. mean of division, ilaontins- and emphasizing the line of demarkation betwun its own members and the members of other fr:l.temities and Don·fraternity men, i, making the most of itl opportunities. Any man who will .Uow hi. fraternity to stand between him and outside friendships is either a snob or a moral weakling, too much afraid of hi. own worth and lOCial position to play the part of a man. He never placates; he never thinks of anyone but him.eH. He is the onc who alienates the general good will, and arouses whatever hostility there may be to his own fraternity, Dot ooly, but to fraternities in general.
From the SM<ld and Diamond of Pi Kappa Alpha comes this warning:
Now that the war is over, many of us are apl to become careless and disregard subtle propaganda that is being circulated to a greater or leIS extent throughout our colleges and universities for the purpose of obtaining recruits to the ranks of the Socialists. This party, if such it may be called, is doing everything within its power-and then some-to increase its numbers throughout this vast country of ours. the United States of America. For a nnmber of yean past the Intercollegiate Socialist Society has beeo rather active in a number of colleges and universities and has obtained a fair number o( (ollowen. or late, finding that their rate of increase in this particular field was falling off, their attack h3s taken on a more subtle aspect. In fact. many real American. have been hoodwinked by their new form of cllmouRage and have been led to join their ranks. The name of thi. new wolf in sheep's clothing is the Intercollegiate Liberal League.
Thi. new league was formed early in April at Harvard University by undergraduate delegales from twenty-seven American colleges and universities. To the layman its program and platform sound quite in keeping with the times of the forward trend of thought; but that is mtrely the bait that catcbes the aucker who is thereby led to entertain insidious thoughts unawares. With such Utopian tbeories as the Socialists are spreading among the immnture minds of the young men and women in our institutions of learning the whole bulwark of Americanism will in time be completely nndermined. Our colleges Ilnd universities have long been the cradle of Americanism and Nationalism. The time has not come nor must it ever come when they shall become a bed of subtle sedition as tbe Sodalists are attempting to establi.h.
At one college tbe activities of a feWi Socialists were nipped in the bud and brought to an abrupt halt. One of the leaders was summarily dealt with after openly uttering seditious words in c1asl and ridden through the streets or the city in an old·fuhioned coat of tar and feathers and perched on a fence r&il. This method of dealin£, with him was direct and to the point. No bones were
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
made about it and the results were immediate and lasting Socialism has not ap(Jeared in that institution since.
Since 1914 the work of combating all this Socialistic propflganda has been most effectively carried on by the National Security League. At prescnt the l eague is endeavoring to form student brancbes wherever there is a student branch of the Intercollegiate Liberal League, and for a starte r they have a membership of 200 at Williams.
The National Security League is progressive. It is not, as many who have been misinformed would h ave it, too co n servative . It is a real American organi· ution and has the backing of real Americans. Its object is "to patriotic and civic education, and national sentiment and service among the people of the United St3tes, and to encourage adequale and efficient defense of the countTY ." To such an organization as this the whole-hearted support of every fraternity man in the country should be given.
Greek Excllange gives an interesting account of the size of national cOWlcils, saying:
The smallest National Council, four members, is that of Kappa Alpha Theta. Five officers constitute the Counci l of Alpha Phi, of Alph3 Xi Delta, o f Delta Gamma, of Pi Beta Phi. and of Sigma. Kappa. Alpha Ch i Omega. Gamma Phi Beta. Kappa Della, Kappa Kappa Gamma, each hI\.! six. officers on its n ational board Chi Omega's Council has seven members. Phi Mu's and Zeta Tau Alpha's eight. Nine officers make up the National Council of Alpha Gamma Delta, of Alpha Omicron Pi (but much of its business is in the bands of an exec u tive committee of three). of Delta Zeta. Delta Delta Delta's Council has ten members j while the Council of Alpha Delt3 Pi is the l argest of all with fourteen members. it being the only fraternity where province, or district, officers are s till members of the national board.
Says a writer in the Delta Upsilon Quarterly:
I am not one of tho se that think a man is ete rnally made or lo s t by his schol astic grades. _ I l ook at the scholarship records of a chapter as I do at my barometer, to be intervreted in conj un ction with other factors. Nor do I lo ok with favor on II. chapte r thal stands high among the others on a registrar's report through th e effo rts of a few upperclassmen I would much r athe r know that every man is doing decent work than hear that the chapter r anks high owing to the brilliant scholarship of a few who co unter -balance the poor grades of a l ot of slackers.
The campus is a. world in miniature, and in our larger world we know that there are many civic activities that require '\'olunteer l abor. many activities that are to be classed as "goat-feathers" and the every-day hum-drum round of business. We do not think well of the man who neglects his business for the uduties" of these more or less desira61e organizations, nor do we admire the man whose nose is at the grindstone all the time and who finds no time for work in the Boy Scouts or the parish or for the affairs of civic and municipal value.

A rkume of the social service work of the orthwestern Y. W. C . A. appears in Tiu Lyre of Alpha Chi Omega as follows:
This year the Social Service department of the College Y. W. C. A. has had the opport unity to extend itself into realms of work hitherto untried. Th e work (I( the department iii divided into four classes: First, the work at the North· western University Settlement; second, the Evanston work i tbird. tbat work whi ch deal. with the campus aJone; and (ourth, a department whi c h has (or its purpose the education or the women students t o a knowledge of worthwhile places in Chicago. Of all Lhis. the work at the settlement is the most interesting nnd the most extensive.
The opportunity for social service work presented to us by the University Settlement can scarcely be conceived of by these who do not have s u ch a field in problems of the different colleges $ond by an exchange of suggestions solve these difficulties. The plan first devised included all of tIl e colleges in whi ch th ere were Panhellenic councils in Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Kentucky, and Indiana. As this was a large undert aking st olle step, the committee decided that it would perhaps be more advisable to have an In disna Conference. At this conference definite plans were made for an inter·state conference to be held later .
There is DO real work for the Pan hellenic girls to do after the rushing season. This is 11 recognited fact in every college. Still there are problems which could be profitably solved by the council if such were outlined. It will be the of the inter.st;te conference to make plans whereby tbe Patthellenic Council may become 0. force on the campus and a recognized ac t ivity in which the girls do :tclnd constructive work for the betterment of their colleges.
