Convention Call! A call to a broader fraternity vision, to a more keen realization of Pi Beta Phi as a national organization, to a clearer insight into her problems and their solution, and with these to a week of vacation whose good times will linger long in one'. memory, to the forming of new and dear friendships, and to the gaining of a fraternity inspiration obtainable in no other way I It is to these things that Pi Beta Phi is calling her members , active and for her Twentysixth Biennial Convention to be held at the Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, Colo., June 25-30, 1923. From the opening session, the Model Initiation and the Fraternity Sing which it i. believed will give convention that spirit of true fraternity which should pervade all sessions, the entire program, with the business sessions, the Scholarship Symposium, Recreation Day, Stunt Night, Settlement School Night with it. entirely different and entirely interesting presentation of our splendid work at Gatlinburg, and the banquet, will have running throul!:h it the ideal that thi.

PI BETA PHI HEALTH PROGRAM
Pi Beta Phi Fraternity in its twenty - fifth Biennial Convention held July 1-6 at Charlevoix, Mi ch., by the unanimous vo te of active and alumnre delegates, co nfirmed the Health Program established by the Grand Council in th e interim of convention, and made it an outstanding feature of the new program planned hy the fraternity for the future.
In J 919 the Grand Council asked Dr. Edith Hedges Matzke, New York .6. , and Dr Edith II Gordon. Ontario A I to provide a health out line sui tabl e for a c tive chapte r and a l umna: club prog r ams. The chap ter5 and clubs wete required to de vo t e one meeting each year to health problems and their solution. Th e outline as presented by the committee was adopted and a hea1th commi ttee fo rm ed of which Dr. Matzke was made the c hairman
Those who attended the last convent.ion and had the privilege of meeting and listening to Dr. Matzke r ealized what a wonderful DR. EDITII lh ooES MATZKE personality she possesses.
Dr. Matzke' s first association with II B was as a patroness of California A, at Leland Stanford, Jr. , University, where her husband
THE
was the head of the Rom ance Language department. In 1910, after his death, Dr. Matzke went east, and in 1913 was appointed medical adviser of women at Cornell University. It was the re that she became a charter member of New York t;..
During 1918-19, Dr. Matzke was on leave of absence fr om the medical office for War Service, servi ng as one of the lecturers of the War Department Commission on Training Camp Acti vities, social hygiene division, section on women's work.
For the past two years Dr. Matzke has been a member of the fa culty of the University of Mi sso uri at Columbia, Mo., where she has made splendid progress and wonderful success with the health work for women students.
In the Missouri Alumnus for December, 1921, we find the following:
" F or the first tim e since the establishment of the Student Health Service, university women sudents have a woman doctor with whom they may consult and who is helping them solve their health problems.
"Dr. Edith Hedges Matzke of Ithaca, N. Y. , who is now connected with the Student Health Servke, und er the direction of Dr. Guy L. Noyes, has come to the university this year to l ook after the health of more than a thousand women.
"Dr. Matzke is a doctor of public health besides being an M.D. , and';s probably the only woman doctor in the state to hold such a degree. She is here as a professor in the Department of Clinical Medicine and Surgery. Besides being a part of the health service which takes care of students individually, she is a member of the H ealth Committee * • whkh look s after the health of the university a!l a whole.
"D r. Matzke received her M .D. degree from the W omen's Medical Co llege of Pennsylvania, at Philad elphia , and also received a degree of Doctor of Public Health from the Univ,:,"sity of Pennsylvania."
HEALTH POLICY OF MISSOURI UNIVERSITY
After following the medical leadership of Dr. Mlltzke for a year, the executive council of the Woman's Self-Government Association at the University of Missouri , recently indorsed the health Policy
HEALTH POLICY OF MISSOURI UNIVERSITY 153
adopted by last year's student association and made several new recommendations.
From the Columbia Evening Missourian) October 7, 1922, we quote the following:
"Chief stress will be laid on obtaining the cooperation of every woman in the university in observance of the health rules, according to Miss Florence Meisner, president of W. S. G. A.
"The Woman's Athletic Association, the ,"Vomen's Panhellenic, the Y. W. C. A. and the four undergraduate classes in the university will work with the executive counci l of the \V. S. G. A. to carry out the health program.
U 'It is not a question of the flapper , of the social butterfly, high heels, powder, paint and the lipstick,' said Dr. Edith Hedges Matzke, women's physician, in speaking of the aggressive health policy adopted by the women students.
If 'This program is not directly concerned with bobbed hair, abbreviated skirts, elongated skirts or the knickers, but it is concerned with the mental attitude to,\vard sane living in a clean, wholesome, academic environment.'
"The program adopted by the executive council o f the W. S. G. A. recommends the following new measures:
OJ 'That one mass meeting ca ll ed a health meeting be held during the course of each year.
"'That the course in social and personal hygiene be r equired of all freshman women in the second semester.
"'That any house where there are three or more university women there shall given during the year one lecture by a medical expert or representative.
"'That in an y house where there are three or more university women there be appointed one woman as health commissioner to regulate and report all insanitary conditions and all classes of illness.
I' 'That the following recommendations at large be observed: proper diet, plenty of exercise, plenty of sleep, proper and snitable clothing and limitation of social activities.
lf'That a committee of four university women be appointed, who with the chairman from the women's executive cooncil , will carry out this health program.'
I, 'It is only a matter of time,' said Miss Meisner, 'until the university will see the need of a definite health center which will make it impossible for any woman student to become seriously iII. We want this work to be the nucleus for more expansive and constructive
health programs for all groups of women in the univer1!ity. By education concerning health cond itio ns and the cooperation of the women with the medical advisers, the sick girl may have proper attention and not become a menace to the girl who is well."
SAFEGUARDING OF HEALTH IS WOMAN'S DUTY
By DR. EDITH H. MATZKE, New York A
The safeguarding of the health of the home and of the community is perhaps the greatest responsibility of the woman voter today. Her vote will not only put health in politics but will keep it there.
Such is the opinion of Dr. Edith Hedges Matzke, professor in the university student health service under the department of clinica l medicine and surgery.
" 'Health is pur chasable' is the motto of the department of health of New York state," said Doctor Matzke, lIand it may well be the adopted motto of every state in the United States. No woman is exempt in the fight against preventable diseases and premature death, and every woman voter is an agent to make health purchasable . Health is not a free gift like sunshine and air. It is the price of an eternal vigilance, made possible by paying taxes for the support of an efficient health department ."
In the past, Doctor Mat zke pointed out, the community health work dealt with wide-spread epidemics, and during these epidemics the people were in panics of fear and were ready to give money : timp and service for the arrest of sickness and death. The striking results of prevention, at such times, gave the idea to the people that eradication of dirt and of ignorance of sanitary measures, would cut down to the minimum the economic waste through infectious diseases.
"Women possess today an educated health conscience," said the womart physician , "and they observe private and municipal cleanliness to the degree insisted upon by boards of health. Public sentiment d emands that every house and yard, and vacant lot , shaIl be kept clean, that all sewage, garbage, tin cans , unsightl y accumulations of decayed matter must be cared for.
IIThree principal factors are essential in order to successfully combat disease. First, a wise federal and state government; second,
SAFEGUARDING OF HEALTH ISS
well trained physicians anp health officers; and third, an educated comm unity.
"Fear of disease will cause any community to cooperate with the practicing physician. It is easier to stamp out an epidemic of smallpox than it is to control an epidemic of infectious colds. We are afraid of smallpox, scarlet fever and typhoid fever, but we 3re indifferent to a superlative degree to the transmission of the common co lds.
"\-Vomen know that children have no instinct of cleanliness, that everything goes into th e mouth of the child. It is true, also, that the children between the ages of two and ten years are very susceptible to certain infectious but preventive dilloteases . orne mothers may be using safe, sanitary measures; their chi ldren may be clean and safeguarded j their plumbing and drain may be in good condition; their street, back lot and alley may pass the inspector but their whole families may become infected through the neighbors' drain, street, back lot and alley. Dirt is dangerous. Cleanliness, the most primi· tive of all sanitary requirements, should be taught first in the home.
HI deplore the insanitation of many homes where the wife is shut up in the house with the window shades discreetly and carefully lowered, with sweeping, dusting, cooking, mending a.nd the thousand needs of the children as her share of the work of the average day. Her work confines her within the walls and in most cases worry, hurry, anxiety and nervous irritability are added to the strain of the day. At night she is too tired to sleep, too restless to rest. The same amount of work performed in the sunshine with windows and doors wide open will give, at the end of a hard day, a pleasurable glow of work successfully accomplished, with sleep and rest as the food for the tired body and jaded nerves. Work is not injurious but work with worry and friction may produ ce disease and divorce in any family.
liThe safeguards of health that concc rn all of us, include as fundamentals, simplicity of customs, dress, manner of living, an intelligent understanding of the social, economic and hygienic value of each individual in her community, and the high , 'aluation of the family with motherhood as the highest vocation of woman. "-Columbia Evening Missourian, October 16, 1922 .
ATHLETICS FOR COLLEGE WOMEN
"Are athletic sports 'ladylike' or are they too harmful or violent for girls and women as future mothers (II This is a question which is being discussed inter-nationally particularly in Great Britain and in America.
Dr. Anna L. Brown, hea d of the physical education department of the national board of the Y. W. C. A. says that the supreme value of athletics for women is that they fit t1ie girl or woman for life. For whatever physical effort she seeks to undertake, her physical strength is ready.
Great Britain, however, has gone on record as finding that strenuous sports are injuri ous to women over there .
But there is a difference between their sports and ours. IIIn America, aside from the track sports, the most strenuous games played have bee n basketball, a little baseball, hockey and rowing. These very active sports have bee n confined to inter-class competitions, as a rule, in distinction to the inter - school and even international (with France) matches of woman football, lacrosse, and tugof-war teams. For this reaso n it is not surprising that the majority of American educators find that sports for girls are beneficial."
Miss Rachel L. Hendinck of the physical department of Boston Unive rsity puts in a nutshell what may be termed almost universal findings. She writes:
"'Our department of the Boston University has no data which leads me to believe that American college women's sports life tends to reduce either physical or mental alertness. At Boston University the jor p1:'.r! c!!e J·e:::.: ;,:; opcr,t iii. iuuoor gymnastlcs, apparatus work, games (basketball among them) and folk dancing. I find improvements in health are mu ch greate r in number than othe rwise . The senior girls who win their Phi Beta Kappa keys are usually those who have been regularly active in the girls' athletic associa· tion.' "

In this first Health and Athletic number of THE ARROW no attempt has been made to have a complete reco rd of the athletic stars of each of the sixty-five chapters of IT B 4> To co llect such data was impossible on account of the illn.ess of the Editor. An effort was made, however, to obtai n pictures of Pi Phis participating

in all of the different athletic activities represented in our colleges and universities in order that more interest could be aroused in those activities.
There are many, many more Pi Phis who have won championships, athletic letters or have made all-star teams than those shown below. It is hoped that every Pi Phi "star" athlete may appear in the Second Athletic Number.
The Editor wishes to impress the chapters with the fa ct that selections for the following pages were made by reading the chapter letters for last year. Through those lette;, (because there was not time to write each chapter special requests) the Editor discovered some champions and references to athletic activities which had been mentioned by careful corresponding secretaries. So you see it "paid to advertise,"
Next year, if the readers so desire it, it is hoped that a Second Athletic and Health number can be issued giving full and complete reco rds of the chapter achievements.
WINTER SPORTS
It is not difficult to see how Montana A , Maine A and the other chapters spend their spare time in the winter when we know that their favorite sports are skiing, sleighing, tobogganing and skating.
"Plenty of the big out-of-doors" seems to be the motto of the • chapten which 'find enjoyment in the struggle to conquer old King Snow and Queen Ice.

THE RIFLE TEAM OF NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY
The RiBe Team at Northwestern University was founded last year. We have an inside fifty-foot range, use regular army rifles and targets. There 3re about one hundred girls in the club. We would like to take in more, but haven't the room or the rifles. The shooting average a girl must make to belong to the club is sixty out of a score of a possible 100; to belong to the team an average of scvcnty - fi,"c to eighty out of 100. The team consists of the ten best shots shooting against other university teams. Last year we competed with JESSI! COOK colleges such as Washington University,
the UninTsity of Illinois, the University of Louisiana, and the University of Ceorgia. 'Ve lost only one match out of eighteen.
The idea of founding a national rifle woman's fraternity occurred to three of us on the range last summer. One of the girls is a K K r pledge, Naomi Sioan , another an A 0 IT , Undine Dunn, and the third was myself. '''' e three felt the need for something to bind us more closely together in our inter· scholastic shooting , so have formed the riRe woman's fraternity, to be installed in universities and colleges desirous of meeting our requirements and becoming members.
Several girls from our local II cI» ELIZABITH HEATHCOTE chapter have enthusiastically taken up shooting, and have become expert shots. Three of us made the leam : Jessie Cook, Elizabeth Heathcote , and ntyself.

Our riBe club is practically a new organization on the University of Main e c ampus. The iirst team· to be active was formed in the yea r 19 20-21. We have, however, been very successful in our matches with rifle teams of other institutions, and were not defeated la s t year .
When we signed up last year there were 102 names on the list, which shows the interest on the campus in this new work. Every college woman is permitted to "try out" for the team .
We use Winchester rifles, caliber 22, single shot. We also use two types of sights, the iron o r issue and Lymen's apture. The best scores are made with Lymen's apture 8ights.
ANNA ASHLEY Medal Wln.aer
The practice required is a great benefit as it teaches steadiness of the entire body and accurate sight. It also teaches the mechanism of a rifle.
Two Maine Alphas were active in the riJle club last year: Mrs . Ashley (Anna J orgenson) and Madeline Brackett. This year we have a number of members "signing up" for the team.
The medal presented for the highest rank in shooting was won last year by AnDa Ashley of our chapter.
BOATING
Canoeing and boating are privileges enjoyed by the members of Minnesota A who are exceptionally fond of all water sports. Nothing is more invigorating than to get away from the rush of the class room to the calm and quiet of the river. The canoe paddIes dipping lightly in the water break the silence as the craft drifts along.
Minnesota Alphas also come back to their work with a glow in their cheeks from a trip in a motor boat at camp.
Hundreds of Pi Phis all over the country enjoy excursions on the water and it is in those groups that we usually find some of our most expert swimmers.

Until this year the college enjoyed an annual pilgrimage to Bread Loaf Inn, a rambling old inn owned by the college. Due to several reasons we were forced to give up the trip this year. In the past it has been a delightful two days of sport and good fellowship. It has been the custom to go by truck as far as Ripton and hike the remaining seven miles to the Inn. After we arrive th ere about noon, tired and hungry, lunch is the first event. Cheers, songs, and yells add to the enthusiasm of the occasion. In the afternoon, the usual source of entertainment has been a Field Day Event while the next day haS' always been spent hiking to various J?laces of interest among the mountains such as Lake Pleiad outlook and Silent Cliff. When the rainy weather made hiking impossible all enjoyed themselves dancing and toasting marshmallows in the big old·fashioned fireplace. Late in the afternoon the call for home has always started us on our way hiking down the mountain.

ICE HOCKEY
Ice-hockey is really Canada's national sport and as such plays a large part in the athletic life of our university. A long time ago men only were privileged to play this game, but for the past ten years the women of the university have put forth their teams each year. Now we have a league of six college teams in the university, and we playoff our schedule each year, having a beautiful silver cup for the trophy.
The Inter-collegiate team is chosen from the six faculty teams, and last year marked our first women's Int er-co llegiate hockey match. We played McGill University, Montreal, and defeated them.
The regular team is composed of six players, a center, right and left wing, right and left defense, and gaoler, and three spares, usually for the forward line The puck, which is a round rubber disc about three inches in diameter, is dropped by the referee between the opposing centers. They each try to shoot it out to their own wings, or carry it up the ice on their own sticks. If a player shoots the puck ahead of her, one of her own team may DOt touch it, till one of the opposing team has, or the original player has skated up paraUel with the puck. In other words, there may be no forward passing. The defense usually use their weight to stop the opposing team from breaking through, and so stand right in their way as they come skating down with the puck. If one of the opponents breaks through the defense and gets almost up to the gaoler, she, if she is a good gaoler, will leave her gaol and crash into her opponen t, and thus knock the puck away from her.
uu.; Tnere are usuaily three periods of play, each of twenty minutes, with ten minute intermissions.
Last year when we played McGill, we had our arena nearly full, probably about 3,000 persons were there, the majority of them came to laugh at girls playing hockey, but remained to oheor, because they found that girls could play after all.
Ice hockey is really the fast est game and in some ways the most dangerous, but it has a charm all its own that only those who hav-e ever watched or played a game know.

These classes were continued throughout the winter and jumping hurdles was added for the advanced riders.

A Riding and Polo Club was formed in the fall to foster interest in riding for both men and women. Several trips were taken to nearby canyons and riding just for the joy of being on a horse was encouraged. The club was well enough organized to direct the second Horse Show, the proceeds of which went for polo equipment for th e men's polo team.
Arizona's Clall-the-year" climate makes riding a favorite sport from October to May. Another Horse Show for both men and women is being planned for soon after Christmas this year.
The success of the girls' equitation classes has been largely due to the efforts of the head of the Physi ca l Education Department. Miss Ina E. Gittings, A and 4> B K , and the hearty coope ration of Colonel Ralph M. Park e r of the Military Department.
Most of the girls in the chapter ride often, either in class or out. In the first Horse Show , Marjorie Franklin Adams and Peggy Neal Hale took part. Peggy won the yellow ribbon for taking third place. In the Horse Show of March 4 , Doris C repin and Peggy rode. This time Peggy took third place in both "Ladies' Saddle Horses" and "Ladies' Hunters." In the "Riding and Polo Club " Peggy Neal Hale was vice-president and Doris Crep in secretary.
This year many of the girls arc taking riding in c1ass and will probably enter the Ho rse Show to Le given about Christmas time.

climate at De Land makes golfing one o f the
joys of college life. This sport takes them out into the air, relaxes their minds, and trains the hand and the eye.

Among th e Florida A enthusiasts are: Elizabeth Hughes, Dorothy Douglass, Emma Jane Rowe and Jane Abbott.

Basketball, which used to be the chief athletic sport for women is still exceedingly popular in the majority of co lleges in which there are chapters of II B <1>.

If you were a nurse would not you be thrilled to think that one of your profession had been so hono r ed? And wouldn't you feel that your nursing was quite important after all in the eyes of the world?
ADA BEERSTACH ER as IITerribly hard work! nursing?"
Many of us have a desi r e to be a nurse but we hear on every side such remarks After taking a co l1 ege cou r se why s tudy
After much persuasion our famili es finally give reluctant consen t to let us go into training. Down in their hearts they are thinking: "She will never stay three years. She won't be strong enough, etc."
Health is of course a most important and an essen tial fa ctor but it is a fact that many gi rls who are not particularly strong when they enter training, finish their course stron ger than when they entered, because of the regular hours and careful living.
Training is not easy and the hardest part is the readjustm ent to an entirely new mode of life. The work is exacting, there is also a strain when you begin to take responsibility. After you are tired physically you still have to prepare your class work. Soc ial life both when you are in training and also after you have finish ed is not extensive.
Your plans relative to parties, etc., do not mature because your work has suddenly changed and you cannot get "off duty." Vet you have many happy times and you enjoy them more because they are not so frequent. Also, you have just as many outside interests as you did in co llege because you come into contact with all types of humanity.
Nothing is drudgery when you know that it is essential for the comfort of someone who is dependent upon you. Nursing has many dramatic and romantic situations whi ch appeal to the imagination. But service to the sick gives its own reward.
Training schools vary as colleges and other universities do but the ti.r:te is drawing near when the training schools will be standardized. Today Columbia University is offering a five-year course of academic and professional work with a B.S. degree. Also you can do graduate wurk iu uu: Deparonem of Nursing and lieaith tor your master's degree. Other universities are also offering five - year courses besides three-year courses which include a quarter's work before entering the hospitaL The university schools place the nursing department on exactly the same basis as the medical schooL
Nursing has made ,,:ast strides since the outbreak of th e war. At that tinle the world suddenly realized the importance of the profes· sion . At the present time there are about thirty distin ct lines in the field. The demand for nurses is increasing in the homes, hospitals, stores, factories, tenements, schools, colleges, clinics and in the work of organizing health campaigns.
•
As to the financial side of nursing, the cost of tuition varies. The larger schools have a tuition of from $50 to $160 which includes the expense of uniforms, books, etc. The smaller institutions pay their students a small sum every month but this does not include the uniforms and books. Other expenses depend entirely upon individual tastes. The remuneration after g raduation depends upon the type of wo rk Institutional work pays from $60-$200 with full maintenance; a month without maint enance; school nursing, $85 -$200 without private or special , $5 to $7 a day with board; Public Health, $9 0-$150 maintenance.
Compared with other professions nursing has many advantages. In the first place you deal with real living problems In the second place the demand is much g reater for nurses than the supply, and either he re or abroad work is plentiful. Thirdly , nursing is always an asset in other positions whether you later decide to go into business o r to become a homemaker.
In the words of Florence Nightingale, uNursing is an art, and if it is to be made an art it requires as hard a preparation as any painter's or sculptor's wo rk ; for what is having to do with dead canvas or cold marble compared with having to do with the liv ing body?"

THE VALUE OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE IN A COMMUNITY
By GORDON L OVELL, Ontario A
First of all, what is a Publi c Heal th nurse"? She has been desc(ibed as one who has to do, primarily, with the health of the community as distinguished from one whose attention is di rected only towards nursing the sick. The Public H ealth nurse's work is of a preventive and educational cha racter. It fonns a valuable part of the movement toward a healthier community which the medical prof essio n is forward ing through its Department of Public H ealth and Preventive Medicine.
Next, what does the Public Health nurse do to further this end?
Let us consider the daily wo rk of a nurse on th e staff of a c i ty department of public health ;· and then seek to estimate for our selves the value of suc h work to the community. ,
•
The first thing in the morning the nurse visits the school in her district. Here, all the children who have been absent any reason are examined before returning to their classrooms, in order that the nurse may make sure that they are in fit condition to be among the other children. Then she examines the children who upon complaining of illness have been referred to her by the teachers. If necessary, the nurse sends the ch ildren home and sees that a physician is ca lled in to treat them.
N ext come classroom inspec tions where the children appear before tIle nUlse and are examined-heads, ears, teeth, throat, hands and arms-to see that all are in good condition. Many cases of diphtheria are checked through the discovery of a suspicious looking throat which is immediately examined by a doctor, a swab taken and proper treatment given, before it is too late. Cases of infectious skin conditions are dis co vered and excluded before the infection has a chance to spread thr ough the classroom. Defective teeth are observed and a note made to advise the mother of the child of the necessity for having them . attended to. The..same thing is done in the case of enlarged and inflam ed tonsils and so on with any defect found.
'Vith her work over in the school for that morning, the nurse goes out in the district to visit. Her visits are made for all sorts of reasons . The first may be to the mother of one of the school children to impress on her the importance of having the lad's tonsils removed. The mother has been told this by the school doc tor at the last complete physical examination of the child, but it is not until the nurse has made several visits, using her utmost powers of persuasion and smoothing out all apparent obstacles, that the mother will finally consent to having it done.
N ext there is a mother with a young baby. She knows very Ifttle about babies . The baby seems restless and cries a good deal. A neighbor has suggested that it may not be getting enough food so she is supplementing breast feeding with condensed milk and generally f eeds it when it c ries much. Then she wonders why th e poor little stomach is upset She has been told also that babies must be kept warm so on no co nsideration will she open a window and the poor baby reposes in a c radle in a secluded corner behind the stove. Many visits are paid to homes like this until ca re , instruction and on the nurse's part have succeeded in
VALUE OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE 179
having the mother become a regular attendant at the Well Baby clinic. Here the doctor advises the mother as to the feeding and care of the baby and the nurse watches its growth and development and advises the mother when anything is at fault.
After the infant welfare visit the nurse may can o n an expectant mother. Pre-na tal work is an essential branch of preventive medicine, as pre-natal care has been found to bear such an impo rtant part in the reduction of the rate of stillbirths and maternal deaths at childhirth. Hence, clinics are established where women may be instructed conce rning the pre-natal care. Publi c Health nurses assist at these clinics and make frequent visits to th e mother t o give her every necessary care and attention.
The nurse may visit next a patient with a lun g condi ti on who must be seen frequently, whose temperature must be recorded and who requires a great deal of ca re and vigilance in order that he may follow the instructions laid down for him by his physician.
After her visiting, the nurse may end her day with the teaching of a Junior Health League-a class of little girls from the highest g rad e in the public school. All of these girls are keenly interested and eager to learn all about the growth and development and care of the baby. Many of these children, whose mothers are working , have to be "little mothers" to those at home and often, where the family is a foreign one, it is only through these Ulittle mothers" that habits of health can be taught to the other members of the household. Then, too, this is the golden opportunity while they are still at school to give these girls helpful instruction to fit them for the responsibility of a home.
If there is so much that a health nurse can do in a city where clinics and hospitals are available for every type of case, it is readily seen of what inestimable value her services may be in a rural community where people are more or less isolated , and the only medical man has a large district with a fairly extensive population dependent upon him for care . Here difficulties may be greater and delay in the accomplishment of certain objects that she has in view unavoidable, but her sphere of usefulness is even broader than that of the city nurse. She may be caned upon to give emergency aid and to do bedside nursing. She may act also as social worker. !t is by no means unusual for a nurse in a rural community to do an intensive
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
pieee of family rehabilitation. In the city the public health nurse is often the means of having such work do n e by putting the family in touch with a social service agency.
Readers of THE ARRow, however, have really very little need of enlightenment as to the value of the work of a Public Health Nurse . They have proven their belief in it, in establishing'" IT <1> nurse, Phyllis Higginbotham, in the Jennie Nichol Memorial Hospital at Gatlinburg, and she has ably vindicated their faith. The news reeei".ed [rom Little Pigeon of what has been done and what is being accomplished by Miss Higginbotham in th e health center there makes a very strong appeal to all Pi Phis in fav o r of the Pu b li c Health Nurse.

Food babits of anyone person or group o f persons are largely determined by circumstances. In the earliest days of the human race, man , with little or no discrimination, lived upon the food which cou ld be obtained in the easiest and most natural way. In the inland regions men fed upon nuts, wild roots , and seed-bearing plants, because in these regions such foods abounded. In the regions bordering the sea, man's diet consisted chiefly of sea foods, because sea foods were 'easily obtained. A recent writer , considering the human ra ce as a whole, says there are three great epochs in man's diet: first, the early hunting period in which man depended entirely on a natural supply of both animal and vegetable food; second, the cooking period in which man still used a natural supply of food , but prepared it for consumption with the aid of heat; third, the food producing period, or the period in which m;" has depended upon-the cultivation of oo"th fl ocks and herds, beld or garden crops, as a supplement to the natural and more primitive supply of food . There are many popular ideas regarding diet The majority of
DIET IN RELATiON TO HEALTH 181
people get their ideas of food and diet habits from popular writings and traditional belief. Therefore the ideas regarding food and diet habits become inaccurate and incomplete, because popularized information of almost any sort is inadequate. If we state that the diet in
ew England consists chie fly in pork and beans, o r potatoes and codfish cake, and the diet in the South consists chie fly in corn meal, pork, and sweet potatoes, everyone knows that such a statement is very inadequate and inaccurate. Although s uch articles of diet
t e TE G. MA CV
frequently appear on the menu, a variety of other foods appear also.
The dietaty combines many customs and food habits. Since the time of the earliest settlers many and various changes in the characters have taken place because of- social and economic growth, better methods of crop cultivation, better methods of transportation and storage, better methods in milling llnd other processes of food manufacture.
Each period of human development has its special food problems. The United States has passed from frontier days, when only a small
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
area was under c ultivation and economic life was comparative ly simple, through various stages until the co untry has become not only a source of food production for its ow n people, but for export to other countries. During three years of development we have come to view the food problems as a problem distin c tly social in nature The food probl em is everywhere alike in th e country as well as in th e city • because the fundamental necessi ties of human life are alike. The country and the city rely upon each other for staple foods. With present rapid transportation, modern methods of food distribution , food problems in the city and in the country 3re the same.
Along with the development of the science of production and manufa c ture came the study of food -stuffs. Out of the later has developed the science of nutrition and the science of feeding. We have come to realize that health , happiness , and success depend upon the wise selection of food and its caref ul intelHgent preparation. The science of f eeding teaches us more important reasons for displaying care in se lec ting and preparation of food than De Wolcott considered when he wrote,
The turnpike road to people's h e arts I find Li es through their mouths, or I mi stake mankind .
Man has always eaten and will always eat, in fact , he eats to live . Child r en need food in order that they may grow, and the adult needs food to repair tissue, in ord er that he may move about and do his work in th e world. Sometimes we forget that it takes st rength to maintain the body processes, to pump the blood to all parts of the body, and generally keep the body in working order. F ood gives the energy for all of these ac tivities.
One reason why the feeding of c hildren is so important is that their bodies are ra!;'idly building as well as repairing worn-out tissue, and their future health depends upon th e kind of bodies built at th is tim e. An adult must accept his body as it is and make the best of it . The ad ult's need then , is to repair worn o ut tissue, however, the adult who is athletic, by muscular exercise and proper food enlarges his muscl es. An o ther instance wherein the adult body does more than m erely repair tissue occurs when th e body has lost in weight either fr om the lack of food or from the ravages of disease when r ebui lding is necessa ry.
DIET IN RELATION TO HEALTH
WHAT F OOD Js
Wise economy demands that the feeding-stuffs which are at command shall be so combined that there shall be no waste o f either material or energy. To be able to choose food wisely on e must know how foods differ in their nutriti" e properties. people do not need the scientist to tell them that some foods conta in more fat, or more sugar, or more water than others. It does. however, take the scientist to tell how mu ch of.each of these substances any given food co ntains and how much of each of these substances are necessary fOT the maintenan ce of life. As an aid to this knowledge the substances which are found in foodstuff!' have been separated into five classes ca lled food principles; the lac k of anyone of these would ca use grave bodily disturban ces. They are ca lled protei n, fat, ca rbohydrate, salt, and water. To this list of general classes may be added a sixth, the food substances designated as vitamines.
The collective expression, food , is applied to naturally occurring co mbinations of substances enumerated by or associated with life. Such conglome rates co ntain in different proportions some of all the elements required by the human organism. Thus we have such foods as meat, eggs, etc., in which protein predominates, but which contain also fat, water, and salt j o r certain vegetable foods whose solid material is larBety c arbohydrate and with a very small proportion of protein and fat.
FUNCTTON OF FOOD
The fun ctIons of foodstuffs are varied. Proteins. ca rbohydrates, and fats may be utilized by the body as a source of energy in the performance of internal and external bodily activities. The greater part of the energy requirement is met by the carbohydrates and fats. Pr oteins se rve not only as a source of energy but as a sou r ce of building material for body tissue, secretions, etc. Salts and water, while not a source of energy, are factors in the constitution of activities of all parts of the body. Fats are used almost exclusively in the production of energy or in the regulation of body temperature. In temperature regulation it yields energy in the form of heat, and it also serves as an insulating medium in the fann of deposited fat.
Protein has the very important function of building muscular tissue and it is the only food principle which has this power. Everyone
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
is concerned about protein food, whether expressed in scientific terms or popular discussions of the value of meat and meat substitutes. The foods rich in protein are the most expensive but experience has taught their necessity. Science is now teaching us the difference in the proteins found in differ ent foods, the amount of protein the growing child needs to build a strong, heaJthy body, and the amount the agult needs to repair the body.
Sugar and starch, scientifically caBee! carbohydrates, are valuable substan ces which are usually found in combination with one or more of the other food principles. Starch is converted into sugar during the process of dig""tion, and it gives heat to the body and energy for muscular activity. The choice of foods contributing carbohydrate to the diet in the right amounts is an important matter. When there is great muscular activity, such as in the case of severe athletic exercise, more starch and sugar are required. A student, or a bookkeeper needs carbohydrate too, but not as great a quantity as does the tennisplayer or the person who . indulges in strenuous exercise.
Fats are obtained practically uncombined in butter, olive oil, etc. food contams some fat also. It is needed in the body to furnish energy either as heat or as activity. If more fat is eaten than is needed at any particular time to keep the body warm, or for energy, it is stored in the body. Of course there can be too much stored in the body, as is often the case when food rich in fat is eaten by people who exercise little. Many people have a constitutional tendency to over-weight, and diet to counteract this. It is always wise to do this under a physician's directions , as there is danger of under-nourishment in such cases. The use of drugs to reduce weight .is a serious risk, as the drugs which produce this result affect the heart action. The person who eats and exercises normally, and is still too fat should consult a physician.
About two-thirds of the weight of the body is water. It enters into composition with every tissue of the body. It has a wonderful cleansing effect inside the body as well as on the outside, in addition to its value in keeping the fluids, such as the blood and secretions, liquid enough to do their work. It also regulates the body temperatnre. To give the body enough water to satisfy its needs at least five pints should be taken a day. Many foods contribnte water but this is not one-third enough, therefore it means that at least six
DIET IN RELATION TO HEALTH 185
glasses of water must be taken a day and it is wiser to drink more. The safe way to insure drinking the full quota is to establish the habit of drinking one or two glasses at certain definite times, such as at bed time and before breakfast.
Recent scientific investigation has demonstrated the presence of o ther substan ces in food which are essential to the normal functioning of the body. The absence of these materials results in pathOlogical disturbances, while the ingestion of very minute amounts is accompanied by rapid recovery. The wo rd "vitamine" has been applied to these substances. In the light of our present knowledge there appears to be at least three types: a substance soluble in fat, designated as fat-soluble A, protective against a disease of the eyes and is found in butter and milkj a substance soluble in water, designated as water soluble B, protective against beriberi, a disease which develops in certain l ocalities where people use rice as the chief source food-is found in yeast, vegetables such as tomato, cabbage, etc . j and another water-so lu ble substance protective against scurvy and is found in fresh fruits and vegetables.
These are facts which underlie dietetics, and while they are indis· putably exact, the personal equation always enters in, and it is always true that ce rtain individuals will not react to f ood in the logical way, and idiosyncracy plays an important rale. Since this is true in health , how much greater must be the variation in disease, when one consid· ers that all peop l e differ in their habits, environment, age, activity , etc. Science is a much kinder teacher than is experience. We can Jearn, if we will, without sufferin g, that when protein is eaten to keep the body warm and to give muscular energy, the tax on the body is much greater than when starch, sugar, or fat is used for heat and ene rgy. N or need rhewnatism or other ills be suffered because we have no way o f knowin g when we are eating too large an amount of protein. Tables and fi gures are a ccessib le to all which state the amount of the different f ood principles required f or the healthy individual , a cco rding to age, size, occupation, and climate. Every Pi Beta Phi chapter house should have such lit erature to which all might have access For indeed a part of the responsibility of the fraternity to the nation is to build up a group of young women who are physically, as well as mentally, prepared to meet the problems of the world. Since diet plays such an important rale in the health, happiness, and success of a people, Pl Beta Phi should see that all chapter houses

Living now in the heart o f a great city, with its whirl o f events. and following intimately the busy life of school girls, I pause to be glad that summer will bring camps. They are increasingly necessary to offset city conditions.

Modern education is beginning to answer Emerson, who questioned
Wilt thou not ope thy eye to know What rainbows teach and sunsets show?
Many problems fa ce the directors of summer camps. There come to us a throng of a ctive, excitement -loving young America into the lake or mountain country for eight weeks. No movies , no automobile driving, no boy and girl social whirl. Many girls are f o r the first time away from the homes in which they have been the cen ter. From ci ty luxuries they come to ca mp to live in a tent or cabin, furnished on ly with simple, comfortable necessities, but surrounded by friendly words, the beauty of lake or mountains, th e lure of camp t1res and a new comradeship.
J have bee n asked to take you behind the scenes of a summer camp. If the ca mp is well organized acco rding to the ideals of the National Association of the Directors of Girls' Camps there is a very definite back+of-the-stage setting as well as the glamour, ugood times," one hears most from the girls. Unless good fun, good health, deep 10Y-
188 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
alty come into the play, the setting is all in vain. Tbe planning for the summer has had to be far - reaching. Directors must keep in mind the points of view of the parents, the schools and .the child. Safety and health and wholesome comradeship demand first consideration. Health must be planned for in its relation to camp sanitation, good food for the growing child and a balanced program: work and play and rest. Safeguards tbere must be for all water sports as well as for jnland hiking parties and trips. Directors must be ready to adjust individual needs and thus a large group of councilor assistants must be organized to carryon the camp program and to maintain comrade relations with small groups of girls in tent life. Early in the year or even a year in advance directors are carefully choosing young college women or young teachers for councilors. They must be adaptable, understanding leadership, but at heart as eager as the girls for the good times of the summer, with the added poise of a big s.ister. It is important to cho.ose a variety of temperaments and social gifts in our councilors, as well as choosing a young woman of characte r with leadership qualities in sports or swimming or dramat.ics or music.
It happens that Camp Holiday has three resident directors who bring to its planning three types of specialized experience. The physical director is gifted in possessing a girl's enthusiasm and viewpoint of sports while understandin g . the limits and purpose of recreation . Our scientific, nature-loving man director brings a rare experience in teaching boys and girls outdoor life. And a third director has a varied background of work with girls and in camps
How is it done and when you ask? In early May, camp literally opens for some directors. Then the garden is first in importance - for it must be ploughed and planted so that new potatoes and tender green peas will greet campers soon after Fourth of July festivities. Farmer neigh bors are called into service but some directors very gladly lend a band in the spring planting, for this is vacation indeed following city life.
When camp living quarters are tents , it entails each spring repairs and replacement of floors i re -tack.ing screening, and the raking of damp winter leaves from beneatb all the tents. Acres of leaves and windfalls along the shore and inland must be burned or carted away
to make beautiful shore lines, athletic fields, dramatic stages and dancing centers.
As strenuous as the days of spring clearings and pitching of tents, together with increasing office correspondence and the varied unpacking, the setting for workers could not be more ideal. For the sprint: woods are ever ringing with the songs of nesting birds and • the flash of wings or the dash of color in profusion of columbine, roses and tall anemones bring delight unconsciously every hour of the day.
The men workers welcome warm days, for docks, slides, diving platforms and floats must be re-set by sturdy hands, sometimes working in the water. Crafts' materials, looms and all equipment must be unpacked from winter quarters. At length the pianos and other musical instruments come forth from woolen paddings, returning to happy summer service. "Faithful," the old camp truck, newly chug· ging away makes busy trips to the village, bringing express and freight, or village supplies. The most important grocery lists have been carefully ordered and at length a great dray steams in to deposit its first load of standard supplies. Then it is that our fine young chap who knows how to do more things around camp than anyone else, is in his element. Unpacking, he makes of our supply room an orderly array of piles and shelves to greet the beaming gratitude of the cooks who swear by IIWally."
The office is busy at work in camp quarters sending out baggage labels and last traveling directions to councilors and girls. There must be careful going over mothers' letters to make final decisions of placing Mary and Janet and Katherine with councilor and tent mates that make for the greatest harmony and good of each girl and unit. The sports director prepares final schedules of swimming teachers, life guards, watchers on the swimming beach . Tentative programs are typed and ready for the bulletin boards. The nurses' quarters is not a hospital but rather headquarters for the weighing and measurement tests to keep up the standards and ideals of health rather than nursing sick girls.
Last days approach. The small family of less than ten gradually increases. The dietitian and dinjng·room stall and cook arrive to· gether, with a few advanced councilors (the majority of the councilors are scheduled to bring parties of girls f.rom various central cities by train). The behind-the·scene work ... at length announce

that every last bed is ready except those of the few who have failed to ship their blankets on time.
Central bungalow has had its last floors oiled and the fire i s laid on the spacious hearth in loving expectation. It is the day before camp opens. Direc t o rs , councilors and all helpers hold a final co nsultation. Even the trunk quarters are ready fo r all the baggage, and boat passage has been arranged for at lake stations. All trains are to be properly met. The morning of opening day arrives. In fresh attire of middies and bloomers, li sts in hand , we are on the dock and no one would suspect the days of work preceding.
By automobile they come first, questioning parents with shy new girls, or old girls dashing upon us taking camp by storm (for the old gir ls beg to come early to greet the arriving boat). And it is a sight-that boatload of eager fa ces which makes all the days of preparation worth while as we hear that first chee ring and feel the eager young arms as they "come ba ck to dear old camp ." It gives assurance that the new girl all strange with first homesick feelings in spite of all the newness will soon emerge into that same jubilant old girl who sings "We own the camp and we own the lake."
Much thought has been given to opening days Old girls are hostesses on the first night and after the "sing" of camp songs and loving greetings around the fire, directors breathe a sigh of relief that "camp spirit" is alive, and that the wee spark will soon glow in the heart of each girl to make community livin g happy and friendly. There are sweet strains of good-night songs as the group divides arm in arm, old and new, into the shadowy moonlight singing IlYou'1l dream of me and r'll dream of you." The nrst gooil-nieht hl1 g 1p sounds through the summer night and all is well. Not at once will the spell oC the out-oC-doors give rest and new health and new dreams but it comes, it comes-very gradually, it comes.
"'Summer camps, to serve their real purp0<ie, must work out literally re-creation It is not merely a hit and miss melee of good times. Good times will follow but not unless in every craft and sport there is gradual development throughout the weeks of the summer , marking achievement for each girl. This requires loying supervision and cooperation of directors, councilo rs and girls.
A Cew details of organization which serve to carryon may be mentioned here. By the end of the first week , two clans are formedold girls placed as before and new girls chosen , strength against

strength , thus forming two evenly opposing divisions. Sign·ups follow for sports-a limited number of hou r s granted. Choices are made between dramatics. aesthetic dan c ing and sto r y telling. All take some hand c rafts; all join some hiking group and no question of all going in (or s wimming.
Th e progre-;s of water SpO Tt s is most inter e ting " Water B abies lt become " \V ate r Sprites" before the sum m e r ends. At fir s t th e cove ted one hundred-yard swim befo r e anyone may use a canoe occupies th e ce nter of the stage. And from that on, honors and points are won rOT clans from simple swim min g up to fancy diving and advanced life saving . With tho'i e in cha rge, swimming hour is the pe riod for most co nsistent s u pervision of any hour of the day. There must be absolute safety. So it is possible that the development in the wate r means more than just learning to swim or t o handle a canoe. As poise of body g r ows, so does poise of mind, bringing a n ew st r e ngth and a new co urage.
On land one may go a-gypsy in g, whi ch mean s not only tramping but tramping to see and to learn ; to build fir es and s ha c ks and fir eplaces with one's own hand and pa ttern And , learning to cook oy the open fire , when th e r esu lt of that coo ki ng is appreciated by a hung ry sq uad of gi rl s, has a big incentive. Soon th e girls loo k forward to the spe c ia l ove rn igh t hikes. Then it is, with blankets r o ll ed in ponchos and food packed as compa ctl y, we go forth into the riv er co untry or into the hills for a night away from cam p. T o the girls it is all a lark , t o the directors again it m eans supervision. One night remain s very vivid. A large party we were that night , s leep ing on a bea ut iful hilltop. It was m oo nlight and the stars were o ut. But a t tw o, a sudden wind and telltale lightning! A spacious barn , happily elec tri c lighted , had been engaged f o r possible emergency ... helter. So th e gi rl s were a wakened. They got up without protesting , rolled their blankets, and t ossing them over their sh o ulders went s inging do wn th e hill to shelter. It sto rm ed that night so hard and with s uch flash es o f lightning that we co uld not sleep. Was th er e f ea r ? Not for th e girls. Instead , in that haymow shelte r lights were turned on and a game of baseball made merry clatter , vying with the storm, until at length it was quiet enough to sleep again .
The sto ry of a su mm er camp cannot be told in the limits of an a rticle One thjng that must be made clear is that camp truly belongs to the girls. Their own ideas and initiative help largely to
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
shape the summer program . Their own camp council, a representative body, outlines many of the honors and rules made for the good of the whole group. To have the girls decide on the limits of the rest-hour and the night quiet hour makes for a better understanding between directors and girls.
In our summer camps, the girl knows the joy and opportunity of new group friendships. She has her first chance to "make good" bec""use of her own worth. The opportunity in a new grouping is given to add her share of fun and origina1ity and to share in the responsibilities . This may mean carrying out new plans for the most o rderly tent in camp or it may mean planning an elaborate stunt night, but all of this develops graciousness and friendliness in addition to the vigor of good sportsmanship learned in the competition of the group life.
As I began writing this article a letter came to my desk from one of the camp girls, the chief mischief-maker of the summer. Her letter was full of dear memories as fervently expressed as she had planned some wild stunt, but what was the final appeal of the summer to her? It was not the glee over the mischief which had taxed our ingenuities but rather her delight in camp dramatics--for in the last closing pageant she had thrilled us all. And now she writes to report that in her freshman year she has "made" the college dramatic club.
Camping means all that old-fashioned camping meant and more. To get the girls' reaction one must listen to the camp songs as varied as a day in camp. There may be wild strains of the winning players o r it may be soft , dreamy fireside songs, imitating their cbanging moods.
To know the heart of a girl one must see a Council fire in the depths of the forest; hear the girls summarize the events of the week in poetry or in foolish pantomime. And here it is that the unspoken new d·rearns of our girls evidenced by the feeling they have for Council, make those of us who are behind the scenes want to pass along this message which girlhood brings to ns of joy in wholesome fun and considerate friendliness as well as clear-eyed purpose .
PI PHIS AT Sl]¥MER GATHERI GS
THE BETA PROVINCE HOUSE-PARTY
Would you like to have a real old-fashioned Pi Phi cooky-shine, with all sorts of goodies, and stunts, and PJ Phi songs, with a cosy circle seated round the floor, while rain patters on the roof and the wind howls outside? Then come along with me to the Beta Provin ce house-party at Mt. Gretna, Pa. This is but one of the many reasons why the memory of that week will always be dear to those of us who were there.
Great credit should be given to Helen Witmer , Pennsylvania r , Ruth Fisher, Pennsylvania r, and Dorothy Wood'Yard, Virginia A (Beta Province president), for the success of this, Beta Province's first house-party. Helen Witmer, as chairman, planned the whole party and made all the arrangements. Ruth Fisher was the original 4Ipep" dispenser in addition to being hostess. The party was held at "Ivy Terrace," her cottage at Mt. Gretna. Miss Woodward was the leader of the party, taking charge of the meetings in the morning
The house-party officially started on Saturday, June 24, and lasted until the following Thursday . Only five short days, but they were crowded with good times . Tbere was the time we went swimming in the little artificial lake-right in among the frogs . There was the long walk through the woods t o find the hermit who never appeared. Who will forget the excitement caused by Arlene England when she rode up in a truck just when we had given her up for lost? One afternoon we hired a machine and rode to Hershey, the home of Hershey chocolates. It was a wonderful drive through the country and we all enjoyed it immensely. And then there was the mystery of the missing rolls that were to have been a part o{ our Sunday breakfast, the evening we got caught in the rain , and tl)e thrilling picture we , saw in little mo'Xie.
Best of all 'Yere thCl lpng cosy evenings when we, all sat around the porch and sang, wqilel Miss Woodward accompanied us on the guitar and the frogs chimed in on the chorus. Miss Woodward's repertoire of songs was inexhaustible and her audience was always enthusiastic. We all learned as many of her songs as we were able, and sang them on all occasions.
We got our own breakfasts and ate luncheon and dinner at "Inn." Being practically the only guest. at the Inn we were properly

appreciated, and great enthusiasm was shown when we arrived for meals, mu ch to our satisfaction.
The crowning touch to the house-party was the cooky-shine heM' the night before we left. E\'erything good to eat that one can imagine was heaped upon the fl oo r of the cottage living-room. Every chap t e r had to give a stunt of some sort and we all joined"in singing Pi Phi songs. Some of us decilied to stay up all night after the coo ky-shine so we gathered around the porch and told thrilling tales for several hours. Gradually, however, we stole off to bed, one by one, until finally only two were left. Even these two gave up at last and by 4 :30 everyone was sleeping peacefully.
So far I have only mentioned the fun and good times we had at the house-party. These , however, w ere not the only phase. Every morning we held meetings on the por ch of tbe co ttage with Miss \Vood ward in charge . 'Vhen the first meeting was ca lled to order the following representatives were present: Dorothy Woodward, Yirginia A (p rovin ce president); Pennsylvania A, Katherine Cleckner, '23; P en nsylv an ia D (a lumna only), Florence Clum Temple ( Mrs. C. E. ) ( mailing clerk) ; Pennsylvania r, Blanche Raine, '25, Alta Kimm el , '23 j Alumnre, Ruth Fisher and Helen \Vitmer (the lattt:r is Bela Provin ce representative on the Fellowship committee) ; Pennsylvania A, Bertha Prichard, '23, Mary Burke, '25; 'Vest Virginia A, Arlene England.
Reports were given from representatives of each chapter and Miss Woodward gave us some splendid suggestions to carry back to our chapters in the fall.
These meetings , as well as the good times we had, and the firm friendships we made , all helped to bring us into a new realization of what Pi Phi means. To those who had never attended a convention this meeting of Pi Phis from other chapters was worth a great deal.
It was this spirit of good fellowship which was to our mind the most wonderful thing about the house-party. The house-party is over, but the warm friendship and real enthusiasm it aroused will long be remembered by those who attended it.

Texas A had its usual summer camp at the close o f the college year last spring. Each member invited a young man as her guest and everyone rowed up Lake Austin to the summer home of Mrs. Collett, where the camp is always located. Fifteen couples spent three p l easant days together, swimming, ca noeing and playing bridge. The co untry cooking and camp life delighted everyone after the strenuou s co llege year.
On Sunday, the last day of the camp, the summer house was opened and the campers received as guests many of the Austin alumnre. The camp this year was the most successful in many yea rs.

LAFAYETTE NATIONAL PARK
By SOPHIE P. WOODMAN , NI!W York B
The Lafayette National Park, established by our Government just after the World War does honor by its name to the ancient friend· ship of France and the United States and also suggests the history of the locality. It was in 1604 that Henry of Navarre gave to the Sieur de Monts, a gent leman , the governance of Acadia. It was Champ lain , on a cruise of exportati o n for de Monts who, in the sa me year anchored in Frenchman's Bay, and looked upon that beauty of mount and sea which he called leI'Isle des Monts deserts" j not because it was a desert, far from that with its magnificent timber , but because of its remoteness and untouched grandeur. In 1688,
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
the island was given as a fief to the Sieur de la Motte Cadillaclater the fou nder of Detroit and governor of Louisiana. After the vicissitudes of the Indian Wars and the Revolution it was divided by the General Court of Massachusetts, the southern portion going to John Bernard, whose father had held the whole island prior to the Revolution, and the northern to l\'larie de Ca<;lillac , wife of de Gregoire, granddaughter of the Sieur. Their old brick house, the oldest of its kind on the island , still faces Frenchman's Bay-named after them.
The writer who spent perfect days at Dar Harbor last summer would fain share with other Pi Phis some knowledge of this , the youngest of OUT national playgrounds. Finer descriptive powe rs than are hers are necessary to give the feeling of the sea ; to make sparkle before your eyes the d,!ncing waves as they come from the mystery of blue to dash on the cliffs along the Corniche Drive; to make real above your head the mountains, precipitous ledges, and dark firs. Only in the Swan Lake valley in the Yellowstone, in the face of a great thunder storm, has she ever felt so absolutely cut off from human IHe as in the tenter of :Mt. Desert with the tumbling century-old hills on all sides , gray cliffs covered with lichens , firs and alders.
To gain specific information about something new in a part of the country distant to many Pi Phis is often so difficult that a few facts and directions may be appreciated.
There are several ways of reaching Mt. Desert. You should be sure tQ approach one end and leave from the other. A delightful trip is by boat from Boston (Eastern S. S. Company ) leaving at six in the evenjng , and reaching Bangor at noon the next day. The sail across Penobscot Bay from Rockland to Belfast and then up the river touching at Bucksport is beautiful. Bangor is a treasure trove for an admirer of old houses, as is Belfast. A two -hour ride in the afternoon by train brings you to Mt. Desert Ferry; the trip a c ross Frenchman's Bay to Bar Harbor with the setting sun ennobling the mountains of the "desert" is something never to be forgotten. Another means of approach is by boat from Rockland-a six hour trip by Haven and through the Fox Island Th o roughfare to the lower end of Mt Desert. The fint landing is at South West Harbor. Then the route lies across the bay, by the entrance to Somes' Sound to North East Harbor with the mountains behind it .
After Seal Harbor, the next stop, the boat rounds the Porcupines and Bar Island and enters Bar Harbor. The boats operated by the Easte rn S. S. Company are exce ll ent, and those running to M t. Desert are delightful with their pretty cabins and great windows.
If time is a fa cto r, a train may be taken at night in New York. The State of Maine Express arrives in Rockland the next morning and the Bar Harbor rea ches Mt. Desert Ferry about noon.
The state roads in are good. Between Portland and Bar Harbor the writer encountered on l y one strip of poor road about two miles long. Delightful tea-houses are frequent and good, though unpretentious hotels abound.
If slimness of pocket-book may make a traveler fearsome of Bar Harbor let it be said It is the cheapest place the writer eve r slept in The splendid Y. W. C A. building has every modern convenience and serves delicious meals. A fine room can be secured in the neighborhood for a dollar a day if the Y. is full. Meals are $1.50 a day-all you can eat, served at little tables by a pleasant lady who sugges ts that there is more in the kitchen.
If you have on l y a few days in Bar Harbor what should you do? Well, the first thing, of co urse , is the Shore Path. Then there are Flying Squadron and Champlain 1\1 ountains you must climb. [t's work any tenderfoot can do. The Government has made some of the trails quite easy. The views over the town, fields, beautiful homes, Frenchman's Day, the islands and the sea would be worth a far harder climb . Then there is the delightful auto ride around the island to Seal and N. E. Harbors, Somesville, etc. The drive follows the cliffs along the ocean, and returns along the bay. Another fine drive is to Beach H ill and Jordan's Pond. Doats co me into Bar Harbor from many points, delightful half or whole day trips and of course there are hikes galore and stiff climbs for those who brought boots and knickers with them.
And then , when you have seen Mt. Desert in the sunshine ( naturally the writer fo rget s the fog ) you wiII stay and stay or, if you leave, it will be only to visit some ot her gem of the Maine Sea Coast.
THE PI PHI EUROPEAN TOUR OF 1922
(The aecond Pi Beta Phi
Tour conducted by Mra. F A. Rugr. fonner editor . (If Tn. A.RaW, wu most lucceufully cOJUpleted tbis summer. In order that those who did not take the trip may enjoT the intettlting thing! seen by our truelers the- following ,limpsel of tbe tour are prtnted -ED1TOI.)
As in 1921 so in 1922 Pi Phis went a touring. The itinerary was woven around the Passion Play for the tiny village of Oberammergau in the Bavarian Highlands was our special objective this season . Many other interesting features, howeve r, made the trip very attractive. Scot land had a specia l charm for us after we had driven to Aberfoyle, ever associa ted with Rob Roy, for we attended a perform'ance of the drama, Rob Roy, at the King's Theater in Edinburgh where the cast of Scottish players made the stirring days of Scottish history live again, and thri11ed us through and through with the old time songs never heard outs ide the land of heather.
Anne Hathaway's cottage had an added sentiment because to reach it we walked across the fields following in the footsteps of Will Shakespeare when he used to go a courting . Stratford gained a new beauty when seen from the river as we drifted down the Avon in the long English twilight, while punting on the Thames at Ox· ford gave us a taste of a favorite student diversion.
Miss Balsley, .i .i .6., and her Belgian girls at the Foyer des Allies welcomed us as warmly as they did the party who visited them the previous summer, and this intimate touch gave Brussels a personal interest.
After the emotio nal experiences of the Passion Play, our visits to Linderhof, Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau, castles assocIated witn the 11i-tated Kmg LUdWIg ot .Havana, carried us ba c k to tlJe myths and legends immortalized in 'Vagner's operas . Wandering through the very castle where Lohengrin and Elsa spent their early wedded years and driving in the forest so closely associated with the l egendary characters of the great operas, l en t especia l interest to the performance of the Valkyrie which we witnessed at the opera in Paris.
Our visit to the battlefields was made more vivid by the company of Dr. Hopkins who was in the party composed largely of Zeta Tau Alpha girls whi ch was combined with the Pi" Phi party for the trip to Chateau Thierry and Rheims. Dr. Hopkins was stationed at Chateau Thierry during those days of horror and glory in 1918 and •
it was a privilege to share her stories of those days as she told them on the spot where the events occurred.
F ollowing are some accounts of the impressions of our r eturning travelers.
OUR VISIT TO HOLLAND
Crossing the Channell Visions assailed us of the "tossing barque" of ancient tales and the WOTst horrors of sea-sickness described by one's friends I Even crossing the Atlantic hadn't quite the possibilities. But our t rip had been well planned, as usual. We left London in the afternoon reaching the Channel boat in the evening, went happily to bed to waken in the morning, without a qualm, at the Hook of Holland .
Our first real view of Holland was from the car windCjws on the way to Amsterdam while we en joyed a very good breakfast, our first meal on a diner in Europe.
From our car window we saw level squareS of fertile fields surrounded by the irrigation ditches with the regular rows of trees to help hold the banks, and of course the windmills, little and big, old and new, just as one has seen them in pictures, only these were real and there's a difference.
Upon reaching Amsterdam we went directly to the wharf where we embarked on one of the small steamers plying on the canal, bound for the Island of Marken. That forenoon trip down the canal was one of the most restful expe r iences of our whole summer. If ever a boat glided, that did. A stretch of quiet count ry, bo rd ered each side of the canal and in the fields hay was being gathered. The houses were mostly l ocated on the banks of the ca nal, their back steps often stopping at the water's edge. We wonde red how they kept the children from drowning and saw how two were guarded. An enclosure sloping down to the water's edge held building-sand . To a tree in the midst was tethered a small twoyear old, another ch ild was likewise attached to another tree far enough away so they couldn' t pun each other's hair.
Marken, our objective, is the show place of Holland. The inhabitants keep the old national costume : the men with short jackets and long full black bloomers, sometimes white bloomers and blue blouses. The women and little girls wear full long skirts, c1osefitting waists and the national white cap with its outstanding side points. The streets were very narrow and winding with fou r or
six steps leading down into the doorways of the tiny houses. Outside the door stood the row of wooden shoes belonging to those inside. There were small shops galore, full of trinkets which the people were anxious to sell.
It was all very quaint and primitive, but one felt that it was after all just a business and does not now represent the real life of a people. As we sailed away, Marken made a pretty picture with its red -tiled roofs and characteristic Dutch buildings against the horizon. We sailed back to Amsterdam on the Z'uider Zee passing fleets of fishing boats with their big red sai ls reminding us of Egyptian sail boats.
Amsterdam is a conunercial city, but quietly so. It has the usual museum and public buildings but where part of the pleasure trips and much of the commerce are carried on by slow -going canal boats one feels rather the movement of life than the rush.
Our hotel, The American, only in name, with its tiled floors, hallways and stairs looked as if the little Dutch woman had just gone over every inch of it with her cleanser that very morning. The food was delicious but served in such quantities! Each one of the erous courses was sufficient for a meal. The service was exce ll ent . ,\Ve found in the Ryks Museum many treasures, among them the famous HNight Watch" by Rembrandt. It hangs in a room by itself where light ing and seating is just right for the appreciation of the wonderful light and co l o r effects of the huge canvas
The next r osy afternoon, instead of the usual tourist routine of stuffy compartment trains we found two luxuri ous motor cars r eady for us and we started on our thirty-mile ride to The HagJle. This
Holland now began to open up as a new country, the real Holland. R-oads bo rdered with trees, village after village with red-tiled cottages or two-story houses set on cobble-stone streets so narrow that we wondered how two cars could pass. Haarlam was one of the larger towns through which we passed, remembered because of its connection with the little boy who found the hole in the dyke and stopped it with his finger which he held there all the cold night through. I've always thought shiveringly of that poor, finger!
As we neared Leyden interest grew for we meditated a real pilgrimage, the first , I strongly suspect, ever made by Americans. We were searching for the church once attended by the Pilgrims and for
the grave of John Robinson , the one time pastor of our Pilgrim Fathen, when they sojourned in Holland before embarking for the New World. With some diffi culty bebuse neither our chauffeur nor the pastor of the c hurc h spok e any English , we found the memorial under which rests the ashes of this brave pioneer. We left some s weet peas to his memory as an appr eciation of the value of such courage in one of the leaders of an unpopular cause.
After leaving Leyden more and more beautiful grew our way, a ctual woods in Holland! And beautiful c ountry places which made us wonder if we were seeing lovely Ameri c an homes of the more attra c tiv e types, English places or Dut c h. T fan cy we copied from them! As we grew nearer The Hague we entered an avenue of beautiful trees, miles long .
We reac hed our hotel at The Hague rather late , tired and dusty , but happy and after a good night's rest in another of those clean, delightful Dutch hotels, were ready for another day of busy sightsee,ing.
I t is said that the Dut c hman makes his money in Rotterdam j con · soli dates it in Amsterdam; and spends it at The Hague. He evi· dently knows how to spend it for The Hague is a beautiful city with its canals and house-boats, fine mercantile buildings, museums, the Royal Palace. Park and government buildings. We saw the outside of The Carnegie Peace Palace where a conferen ce was then in session. We drove through Schweringen, the seaside resort of Hoi· land, with its funny bathhouses on wheels in which one is pushed across the beach to the water's edge, its many bath chairs, its long promenade pier (board walkL its band stand and its glorious sandy beach. Evidently the Dutchman does his playing about as we do.
In the Art Museum we found the nOted "Lesson in Anatomy" by Rembrandt and the old peasant woman's "Grace before meals."
The House in the Woods always holds a romantic interest as do all of the retreats where royalty seek to become quite human and live like other folks. Besides the apartments where the Queen and her family really live is a suite of most gorgeous show rooms where the gifts of the Chinese and Japanese emperor.; vie in beauty with gifts from European royalty.
From the time we landed in Holland until we left among the out · standing and constant joys were the Rowers everywhere, such bril· liance of red and richness of green of geraniums we never expect to

see equalled. Geranium trees I as well as the low growing Hower. 'Ve were too late to see the flowering bulbs, hut roses, snapdragons and pans ies vied with the ri ch 'p urples, blues and yellows of many kinds of blossoms.
Looking out of the hotel window in the early morning I saw the madam across the street taking her morning milk from one of the man-propelled carts filled with those bright brass milk cans. A street vendor at the same time swung bis huge bask.et of lovely Bow. ers down from his back and madam bought from both.
Everywhere one turned were brilliant Bowers I Gardens every· where I Window boxes and balconies overflowed with richness oi color. We w ished we might buy enough to last the r est of our lives. Relu c tantly we turned our backs on canals and cast les , woods and Bowers and faced towards Belgium.
DELIGHTFUL SWITZERLAND
Lucerne where we gained our first impression of Switzerland was pervaded by a spiri t of friendliness and we rejoiced in the cleanli· ness so welcome to Americans traveling in foreign countries. It is a delightful city situated on a lake with the snow·capped Alps in the distance. Lucerne is a most cosmopolitan resort. There are many attractive hotels, shops, and places of amusement. Among our most interesting experiences in Lucerne. were our visits to a Swiss beer garden where we heard the Swiss yodelers, and to the Kursaal where we saw the roulette wheel in action. One evening walked over to the garden to see The Lion of Lucerne, a monument to a fallen Swiss regiment, which is carved out of solid rock in the s.ide of a hill. It is most impressive.
The impression tltat is foremost in memory is of our trip up the Rigi , on the funicular going slowly around the mountain with the valley thousands of feet below us. We arrived on the summit just in time for tea. The very air was tinkling with cow bells. In the middle of our dinner we all rushed out to see the sunset. I shall never forget the Heecy , rose-ti nted clouds, the purple shadows and the reHection of the afterglow upon the lakes below. In the evening from our balcony we wa tched the full moon rise, the beacon tires on the surrounding mountains -and the lights from the villages far below us. The next morning we had a splendid view of the snow·capped mountains surrounding us. ,
PI PHIS EUROPEAN TOUR OF I922 20S
Our trip up the Jungfrau was most interesting. The steep moun· tain grade was covered with lovely wild flowers. Waterfalls were tumbling down the mountain sides and the delightful vistas of the vaUey ever opened before us. We went up past the snow line on to the glacier, then through an ice -g rotto into the glacier itself which was a lovely blue. There were sleighs up th e re to go sleighing but our appetites were so keen we returned f o r lun ch without indulging in the sport.
At Berne we saw the famous bears as they performed for ca rrots . At Lausanne, we visited the university and also saw a fine collection of modem Swiss paintings. The boat trip from Lausanne to Geneva was delightful. The Swiss chalets nestled in among the mountains along the lakeside are so picturesque and we were much impressed by the beautiful city of Geneva with its lovely shops and holiday spirit. Then we took the train to Paris, saying good-bye to Switzerland , now a memory instead of a dream.
THE PASSION PLAY
It was not long after we left Munich before the train began to climb up, up. I think I shall never forget my first impression of Oberammergau, a tiny, red- roofed village c uddled at the foot of a great mountain. There was the cross way up on the summit of Kofel as an inspiration to the villagers. Tt tightened my throat to loo k at that lovely picture: the village with its two predom inating buildings, the church and the enormous theater , a ll topped by that c ross on the hill.
At the station we were met by long-haired men and boys in their native costumes of little jackets, short trousers, bare knees and feathered hats . It was these very people that o n the morrow we would see taking part in the Passion Play.
We had tea that afternoon at a sidewalk ca fe (if you can speak of sidewalks in Oberammergau) where we could watch the people pass.
Throngs of Americans of course there were , hundreds of them, and hundreds belonging to other nationalities mingled with the villagen themselves who were driving the cows home for milking and performing other tasks.
Walking through the village we kept wishing that we could be there between seasons for Oberammergau itself was worth the trip,

with its white houses decorated with biblical pictures in co lor. Its marvelous scenery and the rushing Ammer river. The good will and sincerity of the village rs showed in their faces. Their strength of characte r was marked in the very way they carried their shoulders.
Of course the stores were open and eventually everyone went to the shop of Anton Lang in one corner of his l ove ly home. He is a potter by trade and the tiny bowls and cups with his name scratched on the bottom were in g reat demand. One of the thri11s of the whole trip was finding him there and h aving him sign a picture of himself fo r us. liRe does indeed live his pa rt" - was the th ought that was uppennost as he spoke to us; a ' great man because of his absolute sincerity and simplicity. His eyes are his most striking feature, dark blue, with the ability to show greatest joy and most awful suffering.
On Sunday morning we we re awakened early by bells ca lling the villagers to mass. This was a special day for The Papal Nuncio was there . A special mass was played and the dignHary was greeted with great ceremony in the churchyard and conducted into the church under a canopy of white embroide r ed with gold He then delivered the Pope's message of gratitude to the people of Oberammergau for the piety that had made their little village known all over th e world. We felt that the mass was a fitting prelude to that wonderful day. It was one of the few sunshiny days of the season. W e went to the theater at eight, carrying pillows. The theater was mu ch as you would imagine after reading Greek and Roman dramaa great open stage with a covered section in the cent er. On each side streets of Terusalem led away. On one side was the of Annas, on the other, the house of Pilate. Soon carne the chorus clothed in white with mantels of beautiful colors, so me red , some blue, some green, all harmonizing. The Choragus in the cente r _ stepped forward to give a word of greeting and to invite the audience to p ra ye r
Everyone knows the story of the Passion Play. Th ose peasants a ct it out as if they were living it without any makeup, with no wigs, no false noses or painted cheeks, all given under the ope n sky.
I feared r would be disappointed in the play . I wondered if it could be seen without in some measure destroying the beauty of the Bible story. But when the people came in waving their palm branches and crying: uHosanna 1" to the Christ riding on an ass I knew I

need not fear. Here was a man who because of his character and his ability to live the scenes of the passion week could give the most perfect impersonation of aur Saviour. That first scene because of our long expectation and of the perfection of it was one of the most impressive. His smile of perfect understanding and appreciation, the greatness of his soul showing in those beautiful, blue eyes that were so soon to be flashing with wrath at the money changers in the Temple would move a stoic
Before each act a tableau was given representing a scene from the Old Testament which foretold the events in the act. These tableaux were some of the most exquisite parts of the play. They showed the perfect management and great care in preparation. The stage was filled with men, women and children holding most difficult positions and not a quiver could be seen. It was a perfect picture.
Anton Lang carried us through the whole week of passion. Hi s farewell to his mother, the last supper, Hi s night at Gethsemane all tore our very souls and left us weak by twelve o'clock although it was hard to realize that we had been in the theater four hours. At two we came back again to witness the trial, the dreadful remorse of Judas, the scene on the way to Calvary, the crucifixion and finally the resurrection . By six when the curtain fell the crowds went quietly out, each person seeking for a few moments of solitude. The atmosphere of the village was different. There was r eve ren ce there. At night we walked in the moonlight and felt that we had gone through o ne of the most tremendous experiences of a lifetime.
ITALY
Italy offe red us a very warm reception-but then one can't go just any place and spend the night in a monastery. Such was our experience so we cou ld easily forgive the heat.
We drove by motor from Naples to Amalfi over roads cut out of the mountain side. \Ve were rewarded for ou r hot and dusty dri\'e by a refreshing dip in the Medit e rranean. Then we went up three hundred eighty-six steps to the monastery where we were to spend the night. It was the convent of the Cappuccini Monks. Our dining-room was a grape arbor. And before we retired we were serenaded by voices from the mountain hack of the monastery.

While we listened to the nightingale of the mountains we cou n t ed thirty small fishing vessels in the cove, each with a lantern on it. We were on l y to have a taste of this for the nex t day fo und us on our way to the Island of Capri and the wonderful Blue G r otto. Every phase of Italy has some one thing for which it is wo r ld renowned.

W. BOVER, Oh io I'
The most interesting experience I have had since getting out of war-ridden Europe in 1914, was the conduct of a tour of liThe Magnetic West" this past summer. I had spent the summer of 1921 on the Coast and in the Can ad ian Rockies in company with Dr. and Mrs . Wilson Compton (Helen Harrington, Ohio r). of Washington, D . C . The lure of the West, my mania for traveling, and a special fondness for girls of college age fostered the idea. Furthermore, my previous expe rience as councilor in a girls' camp had shown me that there was a field here for girls who had outgrown camp but
SUMMER IN OUR NATIONAL PLAYGROUNDS 209
were used to a prolonged holiday in the great out-of-doors. Where co uld the possibilities be greater than in the wild fastnesses of our National Parks?
After much work upon itinerary and organizations, I left Chicago , July 8, over the Santa Fe with a small but congenial group of girls. The long ride through adobe villages and pueblos was most interesting . A very pleasant crowd of people on the train was assurance enough that we were to enjoy our stay at the El Tovar Hotel, even if there had been no Grand Canyon there. On the . first day at the Canyon, we took a beautiful ride along the rim, which afforded the girls an excellent general conception of the wonders and mysteries of the "Titan of Chasms." When we returned, the Hopi Indians. who had been moving about so silently and picturesquely, had ubroken out" in their daily war dance. The next morning some of. our newlymade friends were taking the mule trip down the Bright Angel Trail. On account of the excessive heat, narrowness of the trail, and unaccustomed length of such a saddle trip, I had refused to take the responsibility of having any of my girls go down the Canyon. If any of them mourned their c ruel fate that morning, they changed their minds late in the evening when the tired party returned. Two women had fainted on the way, one dropped over in the hotel lobby as she came in , and two young men, one from Princeton, and one from Brown", told us that if they had a chance to recommend the trip to their bitterest enemies they would tell them emphatically not to miss it J
Sunrise must not be missed at the Canyon, as the variety of co lor , shadows, and mists is never so great at any other time and I was gratified to know that my girls ready and anxious to make the effo rt even after late festivities the night before.
We were more than charmed with Riverside. The Mission Inn is unparalleled, and I do not think anyone should miss this bea,uty spot on her first trip to the coast, especially, if she is a lover of romance and traditional atmosphere. Mr. Frank Miller, the owner, is the "genius of the place," so completely does his generous personality pervade everything. The Inn is a great hostelry, museum , catht2dral, all combined. Not the least attractive to my party was the little St. Cecilia marriage chapel with from an old convent of Europe. The drive out to Mt. Rudidoux is delightful,

Southern California has a di\"ersity of riches. Everyone loves to drive through the orange groves and along the avenues lined with beautiful trees brought from every quarter of the globe. And girls dote on the movie industry! This summer we saw Douglas Fairbanks making Robin Hood, and the girls were delighted to get some good snaps of him. But the lovely old Missions with their pristine glory take first place, and Frederick Warde's great play Qut at San Francisco portrays this beautifully. Love for their traditions made the drive down El Camino Real to San Diego one of the finest of our many motor trips. The Pacific was in view nearly all the way. One must not miss Hotel Del Coronado, one of the most charming spots in the world, with the ocean on one side of the Silver Strand and San Diego Bay on the other. I amid only think of the azure sea and sky of Naples. But there is added chann for the Ameri· can girl at Coronado Beach, for she can bathe in the surf and in· duIge in all the other forms of aquatic sport.
For scenic wonders, Yosemite National Park is incomparable. And yet in this land of enchantment you may have the practical com· forts of electricity, bath, and sleeping porch in your little cabin under the redwoods in connection with Yosemite Lodge. Not only did we visit the Big Trees and other interesting places hy motoT, but we reached many otherwise inaccessible spots on foot and in the saddle. Only to those who are willing to work for the privilege is it given to behold such beauty as the view over the entire valley and the peaks of the High Sierras from the summit of Eagle Point Rock. You may return from such a day to witness the impressive and unique utire-fall," or to utrip the light fantastic" on a splendid floor under the open stars. As you retire, you reflect that you have been led beside the still waters, you have lain down upon the green pastures, you have seen the hart at the water brook, and your soul has been restored. Still it can not be Heaven, for you are to leave the next day.
San Francisco is the metropolitan city of the coast . We arrived late at night, and were impressed with the twinkle of multitudinous lights on shore-line, islands, and ferries plying across the bay. The shops, restaurants, flower ma r kets, Chinatown, and the Gol den Gate all present their claims upon one's time. Palo Alto lies to the
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
south on The King ' s Highway, and the visit to Leland Stanford University proved to be a most engrossing feature to the girls.
Our most scenic drive was from Portland up to Hood River, along the towering palisades of the Columbia River, The Amalfi drive in ftaly is a lyric but this is a drama. There are such beautiful falls as Multnomah and Horsetail, there are grassy meadows su ch as Shepherd's Dell, there are heavy stands of timber, there is a broad expanse of crystalline water with here or there an islet or two , and there is Chaste Mt. Hood to crown the whole scene. At the end o f your journey there is the Columbia Gorge Hotel, a private club in everything but reality, with a delicious dinner of salmon from th e day's catch waiting to tempt you.
The voyage from Seattle across the Straits of Juan de Fu ca t o Vi c toria is a most agreeable novelty. The Parliament Buildings there have a very British aspect, as does also the charming Empress Hotel, just a cross the causeway from the wharf. We lingered in Victoria a day longer than we expected, for we loved the atmosphere of peace and quiet there. We reveled in the Butchart Gardens , the antique shops, and Rogers' Candy Store. Vancouver impresses one with its greater modernity and more cosm o politan aspec t Birk's huge jewelry shop reminds one of Tiffany's or Pea cock's, The Hudson Bay Company has its finest department store her e. The water front, with its Japanese bazaars and the big Canadian Pacifi c Railway Empresses just in from the Orient is different from any in our country .

The faithful porter called us very early the next morning • that we might have ,more time in whioh to enjoy the SOO-mile ride through spiry pinnacles, sculptured canyons, and glistening glaciers . r have often been confronted with questions as to the relative me rits of Rockies and Alps. To me this is the outstanding difference: the Alps are populous, you see peasants clad in ho mespun carrying in theh little crop of hay on their back.! , or a few domesticated goats here and there; the Rockies are wild, carefree , defiant, triumphant. No Hannibal, no Caesar, no Napoleon ever led his army through these passes, or ever will. The Alps have the historical background i the Rookies the glow of youth. The C. P. R . has established a nwn· ber of comfortable camps in ideal locations. We stopped at the Yoho
SUMMER IN OUR NATIONAL PLA YGROUNDS 213
Valley Camp, facing Takkakaw Falls. The Falls is nine times as high as Niagara, and the primeval surroundings are still intact. We hiked far up the Yoho River, and made the trip over to Emerald Lake by horseback. Our ponies were late in arriving, and we were a little ill·humored at the start, but the vista which burst upon us as we reached the summit and started down past Littl e Yoho Falls will rema in with us to dispel many a future case of blues. There is also a very attractive camp on Lake Wapta, where pony trips may be arranged for Kicking Horse Canyon and Lake 0' Harra , where John Singer Sargent spent the season of 1921. It is a strenuous trip to O'Harra and back, but well worth it all, and you ha,' c the anticipation of your hot bath, dinner, and little chalet for the night.
Lake Louise and Banff are so well known lha t their praises need no singing. OUT first day at Louise was trans cendently beautiful. After that the weather was uncertain, so that the girls did not get the climb up to Lake Agnes, above the clouds. I hiked up there in 1921, to find a dear l ittle tea house full of English brasses and Devon pottery, as well as a delicious ham and sweet potato lun ch 4 eon. It is not a strenuous climb. It may seem like a commo nplace:' pastime to talk about rowing out on Lake Louise , but if you will paddle out to the middle late in the afternoon, you will get some very good e ffects in light and color, and you will also appreciate better the size of the lake which you thought was a miniature , from the shore. Banff, of course, presents more variety. You may take a wonderful hiking trip to the summit of Tunnel Mountain, you may play golf in a sunny valley surrounded by snowy parap ets, you may paddle a canoe on the peaceful Bow River, you may have a game of tennis, you may bathe in a cold pool or in the hot sulphur water. The hotels in both places are oomplete in the extreme, equipped with libraries, movies, ballrooms , shops, etc. The Canadian Rockies are a wonderful climax to a 'wonderful summer.
I have written at length but I have hit only the high spots. wish there were space to tell some of the personal experiences. \Ve were lucky to meet with no accidents, and our bill of health was 100 per cent better than when we started out. Not the least of the pleasures on such a trip is the meeting and re-meeting with delightful people, and the valued friendships formed. It is a rejuvenating experience to travel with college girls. They are always interested, always responsive, always eager for more. I hope to live the de-

The twenty-sixth Biennial Convention of Pi Beta Phi will be held at Estes Park, June 25-30_ That should be enough to assure the largest convention in our history I Estes Park, Colorado-the entrance to the Rocky Mountain National Park, the most accessible and most popular of all the national parks_ It will be at the time of year when one may pick dainty spring flowers within a few feet of snowbanks; when the fireside conferences in the evening will be a reality; when horseback riding and golf will be enjoyable diversions; and when accommodations will be of the best-at the beginning of the tourist season I Pi Phi is of long standing and well intrenched in Colorado. Boulder is only forty miles from the convention site and Denver , just thirty miles further away , not half a day's journey over the most wonderful roads and through some of the most beautiful scenery that the entire nation has to o ffer.
The well-known Stanley Hotel and Stanley Manor will be convention headquarters. These buildings and their spacious ground. will be for our exclusive use and they include a golf course , tennis courts, a wonderful stable of riding horses and one of the most beautiful views in the Park.

Estes Park is a regular round-trip terminal on any of the western railroads giving vacation or tourist rates in the summer. The village, as it is called, is not on the railroad but is reached by powerful, well-equipped auto stages operating under government license and working in conjunction with the railroads, so that tickets are sold by the railroads direct to Estes Park.

PI PHIS IN THE PUBLIC EYE
MARY SHANNON SNOOK
•
Among the men and women who are today glVlOg their lives to ease the suffering of others may be found Mrs. Frederick E. Snook, formerly Mary E. Shannon, of Arkansas A.
In 19 J 7, Mrs Snook applied to the Surgeon General of the United States for government service . In May, 1918, she was ca lled into
service and was sent to the training camp at Reea College, Portland, Ore., to become a Reconstru ction Aide in Physio -Therapy. While there she was an assistant instru ctor in anatomy and in physiology of exercise, in addition -to her duties as a student.
Five months later she received her commission as a Reconstructi on Aide and was ord e red to the mobilization station , H otel Albert , New Yory City, to report f or overseas duty. There she was attached to Ba se Hospital No . 58, Bordeaux , France.
MARY SHANNON SNOOK
Telling of her experiences Mrs. Snook says: "My unit was ordered to board ship which we did early in October, 1918. After being on board five hours we were ordered ba ck to our station and did not know why they did not sail until after peace had been declared. Then we were told that our sailing orders had been lost.
1'1 was then detailed as assistant to the chief nurse in the mobilization station and after serving in her office until December 28, 1918, was sent with unit No . 13 to Camp Devens , Ayer, Mass.
"It was in Camp Devens that our first heartrending experiences began. Of course we had done mu ch clinical work prior to this time, but it was here we began to realize what our poor boys had gone through.
"I was detailed to surgical ward No . 8. When I first saw the poor lads with their arms or legs off, or saw their hands or arms or legs and feet useless from some devilish grenade or shrapnel, I then realized what my part was to be.
IIFor many months I took care of lads who had broken backs, broken anns , broken legs, or were minus their limbs, or had lost the function of an arm or leg.
liThe saddest experien c e I went through during my stay in that camp was my work among the insane men , poor lads who had been deprived of their reason because of a gunshot wound in the brain, a shrapnel wound in the head or from different other causes.
"From Camp Devens I was sent to the Letterman General Hospital at San Francisco. There r was put in the Electro-Therapy Department to treat wounds with different electrical devices. After having served for a certain time in this department I was detailed to 'Bed Side' cases. That is the highest honor we may obtain in our work, since those cases are the most delicate to handle. Those patients were not able to be brought into our Physio -Therapy Department, hence it was necessary for us to go to the ward in which the patient stayed. Those cases were most pathetic . The men were not able to sit up. Nor were they able to have their beds rolled to the nurse. But because of the seriousness of their wounds we went to them and gave them their treatments every day at the same hour."
In February, I no, Mrs. Snook was sent as Head Aide, the highest rank to be obtained in her work, to the Crocker Street Hospital, Los Angeles. There she had under her charge a number of aJdes and assistants and several hundred men who had been dismissed from
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
the service but who had to receive medical aid and treatments. There she r emained in cha r ge of Hydr o-The rapy, Electro-Therapy and general treatments until her marriage to Dr. Frederick E. Snook, a major in the Service, who was Divisional Dental Surgeon of the Forty-first Division in France.
Today Mrs. Snook is still engaged in her work of making casts for broken bodies or bones and in giving treatments to those who need it. Includ ed in her work are remedial exercise and co rr ec tive gymnastics; massage treatments with electricity or Hydro-Therapy with a view to regenerating the nen'es and muscles by teaching that member to function if it has lost its fun ctioning power.

DR. MARY MOORE WOLFE
Dr. Mary Moore Wolfe, Pennsylvania B, was a graduate Bucknell University in 1895, summa cum and was a commencement speaker. After studying for three years in the department of medicine and surgery at Ann Arbor she received her M.D. from the Unive rsi ty of Michigan in 1899, and that fall became assistant physician in the woman's department of the Pennsylvania Hospital at Norristown. In 1901 she was promoted to chief physician of the woman's department of the same hospital, serving most acceptably until her resi gnation in 1909. She then opened a private sanitarium f or nervous diseases at Stonyhurst, H o Lm esb urg. In connection with this private practice she served as a lec turer at the Woman's Medical Co llege in Philadelphia.
When Dr. Wolfe left this work she was appointed by Governor Tener, in 1914, a member of the first board of managers of the proposed Pennsylvania Village for the Feeble Minded Women. She served as the secretary of this board until her election, in 1919 , as Superintendent of the Village. Much of the wise expenditure of state funds in development of this Village is due to Dr. Wolfe's careful and ski1ful handling. For six months during the war she was absent on leave, serving as physician in the Woman's Hospital at Muscle Shoals, Ala., where she had charge of the physical examination of all women employees connected with this governmental undertaking.
The Pennsylvania Village for Feeble Minded Women was formally opened at Laurelton in 1919 with Dr. Wolfe as its Superintendent and
organizer. Three cottages , to house approximately 150 patients, have already been built and equipped. These are now 611ed. On the 634 acres belonging to the Village, three more cottages, it is hoped, will soon be erected and made ready for additional patients , as the institution has already reached the limit of its capacity and cannot now accommodate its present waiting list.
Psychological tests and studies of patients, begun last swnmer , show that twenty-five per cent of the Village's patient population is composed of morons, fifty -five per cent imbeciles, and twenty per cent idiots. It has been possible, with supervision, to have the patients perform helpful tasks about the "iIIage. In the cottages they have helped with the housework and in making necesssary clothing. Out side the cottages they have helped to improve the appearance of the grounds by brushing out and cleaning up the woods near the cottages as a protection against the forest fires. This work, done originally about five years ago when the first cottage was erected, cost nearly $400. At present the girls are brushing out the basin of an abandoned dam that is being repaired for use as an ice pond. In the tru ck patches , too, they have made a fine record. As a large share of play is also essential to their well-being, many sorts of recreation have been planned for them outdoors, and indoors, buuks, magazines and victralas please them.
No small part of the valuable service Dr. \Volfe has already gi\'en to the Village is due to the inspiration of helpful gifts from Mrs. John H. \\leaver (Ida Davidson, Inst., '82), of \Villiamsport , and the efficient interest of Mrs. Harold M. McClure (Ma rgaret Focht, [nst., '78), of Lewisburg, a member of the Board of managers.

ELIZABETH A. HELMICK
Mrs. Eli A. Helmick (Michigan A ), wife of iajor General Helmi ck, former Historian of n B cz, and a most enthusiastic worker for the IT B <I> Settlement School , was recently highly honored by being appointed to serve as chairman of a committee to investigate the housing conditions of \Vashington, D. C.
Mrs. Helmick's wide experience as a social worker during the war and her capacity for undertaking big and important tasks brought her this especial recognition and interesting responsibility.
232 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
As a result of this investigation there has been created the District Home Association of which Mrs . Helmick is sec retary.
When aSked concerning this new work, for the bcttennent of ,public health co nditions, Mrs. Helmick. wrote:
Clln March, 1922 , Commissioners of the Distri c t of Co lumbia, in response to the publi c agitation on the of Mr. H erbe rt Hoover
and associated. Congressmen, selected a committee of thirty-three representative men and women to examine into and report upon the housing conditions in the National Capital, and especially to make recommendati ons for relieving conges ted and unsanitary alleys or slums. This committee was known as the Commissioners' Housing Committee of the Distri ct of Columbia, and I had the honor of beint
EUZABItTJI A. HI:LllICK
its chairman. We worked four months in our investigations lines followed by similar colllIl'littees in New York, Cleveland, Detroit and other large cities . The committee had no power to compel wit · nesses to testify but there was no dearth of voluntary statements, and publicity proved a speedy and far -reach ing agency in reducing and co rrecting many unscrupulous and evil practices which were legitimate under the letter of the law.
"The casua l tourist and visitor to Washington is not aware of the {a c t that within the limits of this beautiful city we had more than J 2,000 alley dwellers, mostly negroes, crowded in miserable shacks and hov els, along narrow, unsanitary and unpoliced alleys. Our day laborers, street cleaners, janitors, laundresses , cha rwomen , maids , cooks and house servants came largely from these surroundings. In some of our alleys crime and disease flourished, and it was difficultalmost impossible-for the Health Department and the Police Depa rtment to exert material influence for th ei r betterment.
"The first Mrs. Viilson was active in a campaign to clean out and abolish all alley dwellings in the city. In 1912 Congress passed a bill, known as the Alley Ejection Bill , making it unlawful to dwell in any alley or street less than thirty feet wid e, and allowing two years f o r the alley dwellers to adjust themselves in homes elsewhere . In 1914 co nditions had not been materially changed and Congress was asked to extend the Alley Ejection Law two years. In 1916 the war clo uds were gathering ove r our heads and again the law was extended two years. In 1918 we were at war and c rowd ing Government workers all through our city in every available nook and corner, and aga in the Alley Ejecti on Law was extended two years. In 1920 the and readjustment after the war were so fresh and compelling that no provisions cou ld be made for our poor alley dwellers, who were Hving now in a more congested and more unsa nitary condition, owing to the fact that the numbers had increased and few repairs had been made. The law was still again extended two years. In 1922 the law was due to go into effect, and there should have been no good reason for not enforcing it, but colored people move slowly, and the rent of these shacks br ought in large returns for the small outlay, and Congress was once more influenced to postpone enforcing the law for cleaning up and removing . from the city this constantly increasing menace to health , law , order and morals of the young and old negroes in the alleys.
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
"Congress could not appropriate funds for building homes for these people who must abandon their alley homes; the District had no funds to expend for that purpose, and builders were taxed day and night to provide dwellings for those who could pay promptly and generously for their homes. It seemed very necessary for some altruistic agen cy to undertake the responsibility of making the way possible for enforcing the law and creating condi ti ons for these people which would enable them to procure homes for themselves. This work is now being undertaken by a g roup of men and women, known as the District Homes Association, incorporated for the purpose of being r esponsib le for building low -priced homes for the needy. I have been asked to be it s secretary. It is not a moneymaking corporation and the houses will be delivered to the homeseeker at exactly the cost of const ru ction. One of the largest insurance companies in the country has agreed to furnish the money at six per cent, payable in full within thirty years. Before a person ca n begin negotiations for the construction of a house he must buy and pay for his land. The Association has the option on a large tra ct of unimproved land on the outskirts of the city, well wooded and adapted to the need , where sand can be gotten cheaply and quickly, and the negroes will be given preference on the working force. One of the missions of the association is helping the man or woman to buy the land.
11ft is planned to build five hundred houses before nex t summer. They will be built of concrete, using a new patented process and stee l sectiona l f orm s. This will turn out an almost indestru ctible building at a very low price. There will be three different styles o f houses, the bunga low, the two·family flat and the four-family 8at . Each family will have its front porch and a rear garden patch. The cheapest and smallest house will have a living -room , bedroom, diningroom, kitchen and bath . This will cost about $1,800, and will be paid for by a cash initial payment of $50 and monthly payments of $16, which will include interest. A well established Roman Catholic church is already on the ground and using its influence with its members. One public school is within walking distance of the first houses and the city street ca r system runs to the edge of the selected land. Already more than two hundred lots have been bought and paid for and building has begun. Twenty gangs of men have been engaged and will be kept working at one time. Machinery, forms
PI PHIS IN THE PUBLIC EYE 235
and materials will make it possible in a short time to finish off each day, with these twenty gangs, at least five houses. It is planned to finish no two houses just alike and every effort will be made to create a pleasing, well -planned, sightly "mage, where the dwellers wi11 be encouraged by surroundings and bettering influences to work to some definite end; where they will be Jaw -abiding and selfrespecting; where they can get the direct light of the sun in their homes and the joy of fresh air from the open country; where sanitation wiII be f orced upon them and the police can protect them. All these benefits will be theirs not as a gift, but because they will have worked and earned it [or themselves when the way was opt-ned up for them to do so.

WHAT OUR COLLEGE AND CHAPTER ARE DOING FOR THE HEALTH OF WOMEN STUDENTS
(What a Fraternity Girl Thinks)
INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS
All women students taking gymnasium work or participating in athletics must first undergo a medical examination, and remedial classes in physica l culture are conducted for the correction of slight physical defects. Moreover, physical training has this yea r been made compulsory for first and second-year students, all of whom must therefore take the medical examination. Besides the compulsory classes, there 3Te optional ones in gymnastic work, dancing , fencing, basketball, and baseball, and compe tent instruction is provided in swimming and life-saving. Int er-faculty tennis, hockey, swimming, and basketball are institutions, and intercollegiate women's a thletics are rapidly developing. Last year we met our sister universities in hockey and basketball, and this year we hope to add swimming and indoor baseball to the list.
ONTARIO ALPHA.
HEALTH OF FAMILY STUDIED
At the University of Maine we are really doing splendidly, in comparison with other years, for the health of our women. During the registration for c1asses, each student was closely examined as to the race, health and occupation of parents : Many important and minute questions were asked concerning the health tendencies of the family. Then each girl was individually examined by our physical director as to height, weight, size and development. After this process, each one was subjected to a thorough and intense physical examination by Dr. Barbara C. Hunt of Bangor.
Each woman student during her freshman year of college life is required, unless excused by reason of ill health, to take three hours a week of physical education. All girls taking the home economics course are also required in the sophomore year to take three hours of training. This year our duty toward athletics is being emphasized for upperclassmen. Every girl in college is required , as far as possible, to u go out" for some f onn of athletics.
I·Prexy" Little, our new president of the university, is very enthusiastic over girls' athletics. It has been chiefly through his untiring
THE HEALTH OF WOMEN STUDENTS 239
efforts that the girls have a well rolled and fenced-in hockey field, over which much enthusiasm is being shown.
Up to this yeaT, the girls' and men's varsity athletics h:\Ve been supported by one main athletic association. Now we are considering individual associations as we feel that we shall be able to accomplish much more in this way . At Maine we now have girls' varsity basketball, tennis, track, and rifle teams, with a large prospective hockey team and possibly baseball.
As Pi Phis, we too consider the need greatly. In eve ryone of the mentioned organizations we have active members. Besides this, and most important in our fraternity group is our IIHealth" night, which comes at regular intervals during the college year. OUT first program is to be observed at the next meeting when we are to be addressed by the director of athletics and physical education at Maine. Also , each gir l is expected on that night to give a specific phase or thought concerning the promotion of health in our own group, as a suggestion to be adopted.
HEALTH SCHEDULE
N ear the close of the spring semester last year, Vermont A obtained the services of the district nurse in Middlebury to conduct our Health Program. She gave a short interesting talk concerning girl problems. At th e end of her talk there was a general discussion during which time many questions were brought up. This program proved very helpful to our girls. This fall the college is trying to follow a wellplanned health schedule. This will include the giving up a few things which some consider necessary such as coffee, tea, and eating between To stimulate more interest the class with the highest per cent of its girls living up to these rules will receive honorable mention.
HEALTH CARDS
Through the inOuence of the physical director for women and under the auspices of the women's athletic association, a health campaign was started last spring. Each girl had a card on which there was a list of things that one should do each day. Some of those were: three meals, a bath , exercise, eight hours' sleep, etc. Beside each item was a square in which a cross was if done. Each item

OUTING AND RIFLE CLUBS
The Health Program of Syracuse University is extensive and reaches every girl registered. At the beginning of he,r freshman year, each girl takes a thorough physical examination and is assigned to regular gymnasium work if she is physically fit; to restricted or corrective gymnasium classes if not able to take the regular work.. Two hours pe r week for two years of gymnasium is required of all Liberal Arts students, and one year for students in other colleges. Ample opportunity is given to anyone wishing to take part in athletics-basketball, swimming, tennjs, hockey, track, etc. Organizations such as the Outing Club and the Rifle Club are within the reach of every girl. In connection with the university an infirmary is maintained where every student is privileged to go at any time.
New York A chapter h elps in p r omoti ng the hea l th work of t he university by insisting that all the pledges who a r e physically ab l e, go out for uactivities," which incl u des all ath l e tics, and i t is hoped that. the girls will continue the good work they have started.

No GVMNASIUM CLASSES
Since St. Lawrence University has no gymnasium classes, the women's student government association is trying to do something for the health of the women students. Steps have been taken by the association to obtain a date from Dr. C. C. Croff on which she can come to Camon to give lectures to the women students. Dr. Croff, a, a member of the New York State Board of Health travels over the state giving health lectures. She lectured in Canton last winter before the women of the New York State School of Agriculture. These lectures were also attended by some of the college women and proved beneficial to them. If we succeed in obtaining Dr. Croff as a lecturer, the lectures will be compulsory for the women students.
THE HEALTH OF WOMEN STUDENTS 241
The associatjon has also continued re·decorating and re-furnishing the women's rest room at the college, and it is now a more healthful and more pJeasan t place to work or rest.
Our chapter, regretting the lack of gymnasium classes, is buying physical culture records for the use of the girls living in the house. 'Ve have also considered forming a class of the girls in the house for physical exercise, and using the parlors for this purpose. Moreover, there are several classes in first aid and hygiene to be started in town soon. The chapter urges its members to attend these as far as pos';ible .

THREE YEARS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Bucknell requires that all women students except seniors and those specially excused shall take the course in physical education. This is given under the direction of a competent woman instructor, and includes a thorough physical examination each year, with suggested corrective treatment. Hiking , tennis, hockey, and basketball are the most popular sports here, and do much to keep the girls fit. A college nurse attends to all cases of sickness, although fortunately there 3re few of a serious nature. At its health meetings the chapter stresses prevention of sickness and urges special care of the health. \Ve hope to have Dr. Mary Wolf, Pennsylvania B, who is well known in state medical circles, take charge of the chapter health meeting this year .

Tennis tournaments have also been planned and we expect to have basketball games with other colleges. Organized hikes are made on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
We are proud to say that our chapter is at the head of this health program. Elizabeth Filler is pr esident of the girls' athletic association and Eleanor Epright has charge of the health program.

She keeps records of every girl in the university and those who are below par r eport to her each week. All others are required to take gymnasium and swimming four hours a week .
In addition to the university regulations our chapter has a health program of its own. We have a standing committee on health which keeps a record of every gi rl in the chapter, and once a month we have a health meeting with talks by Dr. Shepard, or articles on health r ead by some member of the chapter.

NURSE ON FACULTY
The Urtiversity of Ohio has a nurse as a member of the fa culty , who teaches classes in hygiene and home nursing . The need for such instruction is felt, and credit is given for the work done in these classes. It is th e duty of this nurse to look after the health of all the women in the university. She has office hours, and it is easy for any girl on the campus to go to her for advice or attention.
Every morning the matron in each dormitory and co ttage inspect'S all of the rooms and sees that all girls needing medical attention r eceive it. Every girl is required to take a yea r of physical training. Special cases are given special training . There is a hospital close to the campus to which all contagio us cases can be taken at once.

DAILY EXERCISE
I n recent years all colleges are setting higher standards for health, but at HalHns, especially, physical care is given a m ajo r considera · tion. Every student is on her honor to take at least one hour's exercise daily. This can be taken in the gymnasium , on the baske tball co urt, the hockey field, the tennis court, or along the delightful walks the hikers take. Before students can participate in any kind of athletics, however, they are all required to take a rigid physical examination and have to make a posture grade of B before they can make a varsity team. In the spring the freshmen have a series of interesting lectures in the form of a hygiene course. These prove very interesting and clarifying.

The f reshman and sophomore girls are required to take gymnasium, and in addition' to this e\Tery entering woman is obliged to attend a series of hygiene lectures, There is also a Public Health Service, conducted by the university, and a woman physician who will render free medical aid.
The chapter urges the girls to take care of their health in such matters as clothing, food , sufficient sleep, and proper light when reading or studyin'g. All outdoor activities such as walking, tennis, hockey, and horseback ridin g are encouraged, and the juniors and seniors are recommended to take up special classes in gymnasium work. Also one meeting a year is devoted to some sort of health program. MICHIGAN BETA.
SPLENDID HEALTH SPEAKER
Through the efforts of the Y. W.C. A., Franklin College women last year had the opportunity of hearing Dr. Nordfeldt of New York, who l ectured on "The Health of Women." Dr. Nordfeldt devoted much of her time during her stay in Franklin to conferences with girls advice. Every girl received benefit from the four days' association with Dr. N ordfeldt. This year the co ll ege continues the plan of physical examinations for women and regular gymnasium classes for freshmen and sophomores. II B hopes to have a chapter meeting devoted to the subject of health, in the near future.

EXPLORATION RIDES
Indiana r at Butler College has done more individual work for the improvement of the health of its members within the past year than ever before. The college requires two years of gymnasium work fo r graduation, but largely due to the sudden increase in enrollment at Butler, there is a lack of athletic equipment and proper accorn· modations. Consequen tly, practically every girl in the chapter plays basketball. with the hope of making the lin Varsity," which meets other brganized teams. Horseback riffing is another popular sport, and exploration parties to discofer new bridle paths around Irvington are made several times a week. It is the intention to continue the practice of having health programs and discussions at our lraternity meetings. I ND,tANA GAMMA.
BALANCED MENUS
Formerly health talks have been given every month to the wom<n students of the university by the dean of women. This year, the Women's Panhellenic Council, working with the Y. W. C. A. and the dean of women, is to have a series of health lectures given by women and doctors who are prominent in this work throughout the state. Then, to o, a greater effort is being made to interest more girls in athletics.
I n our chapter care is being taken in th e balancing of menus for each meal, and in the ventilation of study and sleeping rooms . We a l so have at least one health talk a year from one of the .leading women physicians of the city. We are attempting a higher ave ra ge in athletics. I NDIANA DELTA.
SPECIAL HEALTH SERVICE
The work of the University of Minnesota along lines of health for its women students consists largely of the establishment of the health service, which is for the benefit of every student of the university. A payment of two dollars is made with the registration fee for the use of the health service during the year. Capable doctors are employed and their services are rendered without charge. Also there are very important hygiene l ectures, given by Dr. J. Anna Norris, to freshmen girls during their tirst quarter in college. These prepare the girls to meet the problems of hygiene as they come to them.

HIKING AND HORSEBACK RIDING
The University of Wisconsin has not recently instituted any health reform movement as such , but in the regular working of its clinic and physical education department it strives at the ma.'dmum of perfect health for its women students. We have rigid physical and medical examinati ons on entering, which are repeated at various times to note improvement; and later , balance , coordination and efficiency tests are given. The girls are divided into gym classes according to their physical ability and given the proper exercises. The corrective classes are especially notable, where each girl is taken as an indio vidual and given those exercises which will help to strengthen and upbuild her. Every girl is required to go out f or some spo rt, whic h is played outdoors whenever possible, and the Woman's Athlet ic Association and Outing Club encourage sports, hiking and general health.
Our chapter also tries to do its part. We have r egular, well balanced meals, encourage early retiring and enf orce quiet hours . The 01ger girls make it a point to ask the new girls to go hiking and horseback riding with them. We have large , light, well ventilated rooms with a large closet for ea ch girl and expect to have a sleepinb' porch before next spring.

Instruction in practical agriculture has always been a vital need in Gatlinburg. Tbis fact bas been recognized by everyone ever con · neeted witb our Settlement School in an official capacity and there is general rejoicing tbat tbe need has at last been met most ade· quately. Miss Bishop bas endeavored constantly to solve this prob· lem by finding ways and means to meet it, and thanks to her tireless efforts the n B 4> Scbool has at last secured a teacher of voca · tional agriculture under the provision of the Smith· Hughes A ct. The state requirements for such a teacher are given below in order that the general reader may appreciate the full scope of this new brancb of our work wbich has now been made possible.
VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE IN TENNESSEE AND WORK OF THE TEACHER OF VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE
A teacher mUlt be employed by the School {or a period of twelve months.
The teacher must be a graduate of a {our-year course in Agriculture from a standard college or university. In addition 10 his B.s.A. degree he must have had eighteen semester hours in education, nine of which must be in agricultural education.
A room must be provided and equipped with chairs. tables, shelves, cabinets, elc., {or the use of the department of Vocational Agriculture.
The School must appropriate for laboratory equipment $:250.00 the first year, $100.00 per year for three years thereafter.
An appropriation of $80.00 for an Agricultural Library must be made first year and $:25.00 per year for three years thereafter.
Tbis work is designed for boys over fourteen years of age who live on farms. Ench boy taking agriculture must devote one·hal! of school day to it and in no case shall this be less than ninety minute classroom instru c tion. Each boy taking agriculture must carry out a project along the line of instruction given . The work must be under the direct and personal supervision of the teacher . The project must always be completed and in no case shall the time be less than six months supervised practice and project work.
The teacher of Agriculture must own and operate a means of transportation in order that he may be able to visit the boys doing project work and farmers of the community.
The work of the teacher of Vocational Agriculture includes classroom instruction, snpervision of projects, part-lime work with boys not regularly in school, evening work with men, and community work.
The classroom instruction includes the regular recitation, laboratory work, project study, reference reading, project planning, supervised study and field "'ork.
THE ARROIV OF PI BETA PHI
Each boy who elects the course is required to take a project along the line of instruction taken and UDder direct supervision of the teacher. This brings the t'eacher in contact with the farm home and the people of the community. Collecting and preserving laboratory materials such as insects affecting rann c rops, specimens of discase attacking plants and animals, crop exhibit. of all kinds, adding additional equipment to the department, making chartl for Uk in cia.. instruction, these and many other d uti es cornt in the program of the teacher of Vocational Agriculture. There are many boy. who have dropped out of school before reaching or finishing high school. These boys are now livin g on {arms and cannot attend school for nine months beca u se of theh business. These boy. Are vita lly inte r ested in their vocation, agriculture, and would glsdly take instruction jf they had the opportunity. The teacher of Vocational Agriculture in Tennessee will organize unit courses for these boYI> ouring the months of December, January aDd February, and for two hourI> twice :l week for three months instruction will be given in agriculture, farm arithmetic, farm accounting, farm letter writing, referen ce reading, bulletin and magazine work and any other thing that they need to help them in their vocation. The meetings will be held twi ce each week, moking it possible to complete 3. unit course each month.
The teacher of Vocational Agriculture is the community adviser and his activities are many. He should organize and promote community organiution. organize comm unity fairs and ex hibi ta, act as the community veterinarian in emergency, actively engage in all wo rk with boys. get people interested in rec reation for all ages, promote the social and religious sides of comm unit y life, help bring father and son closer to each other, help develop a market for the produce of the community, instruct the community in the presentation and preservatio'n of products for the market, instr u ct the community farmers how to combat diseases and pests attacking crops and animals. make a survey of the community to ascertain its needs, put on agricultural plays for the 5choob, standardize the products of the community, do junior project work with boys in the run) schools, act as a teacher-trainer to rural teachers.
Even a cursory reading of these requirements for a teacher of vocational agriculture is enough to show the uninitiated that it has been no small task t o find the person fitted to meet them and to work in harmony with our school staff. It is a matter of great satisfaction therefore that our pioneer worker in this field is proving so satisfactory. In her semi-annual r eport to the Settlement School Com· mittee made after her summer visit to the school in August and September, Miss Kate Miller, the chairman, writes as follows:
"Mr. O. J. Mattil , teacher of agriculture under the provisions of the Smith-Hughes Act is from the University of Tennessee and is a teacher of experience with two years in Smith - Hughes work. He is a splendid man to have on our staff, able , willing and interested.

Like the nurse he is a power throughout the whole community. The old school house is used by Mr. Matti! for his work. He has made two rooms in it, one for class work and the other for shop. He is putting in racks for tools and employing the boys to do the work. There is so much of his work that is outside that I believe the small classroom will be adequate for a while."
Following is Mr. Mattil's report t o the Chairman of the Settlement School Committee after three months' work in his new position.
THE SMITH - H UGHES AGRICULTURE AT THE PI BETA PHI SCHOOL
JuiYI August" September} 1922
I n the establishing of such a work as vocational agricultu re in a new neld, a l ong time is required before we can hope to see progress or notice any great results. It's a slow process, really a gradual growth, SO th ese first three months in particular could hardly be expected to produce any showy record yet the responses to my efforts have been very pleasing and cause me to feel that satisfactory results will be obtained in the course of time.
In the horticultural class we have had occasion to make a number of trips to orchards. In connection with the study of harvesting and marketing of fruit the boys observed the thinning and picking from the trees and that these picked apples were kept separate from any that fell from the trees. They were surprised to find that to avoid the multiplication and spread of the bruised rottening apples, co res , etc., were removed from under the trees. They were told about and shown how apples s hould be graded and packed for the market, then all tried their hands at it themselves.
In observing the orchard cultivation the benefits of cultivation were clearly seen, and it was also observed that by the proper cultivation and rotation of crops some of the most troublesome of weeds were being e radicated.
Learning varieties of apples something like two dozen different ones were observed and of the more important ones a close study by the use of a score card was made. Such points as good bearers, good shippers, good keepers, the flavor, color, etc., were cons idered .
On another occasion the class was shown how to select a good exhibi t of apples for fai rs, etc., after instruction each boy picked his
THE
ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
exhibit of apples. These exhibits, I then judged and criticized the selections and announced the placings. A few daY" later the same exercise was repeated, this time in an orchard of unsprayed fruit. The reaction obtained was fine; selecting a few minutes they declared it would he impossible for each of them to pick any kind of an exhibit; that the best from unsprayed trees were not as good as the worst of the sprayed fruit I They had l earned that to get sound fruit free from · disease it would he necessary to spray. (The unsprayed fruit came from the school orchard.)
In the animal hubandry class, in the study of poultry we studied cu lling ; that 'is the boys were taught how to distinguish the good and the poor producing hens so that those hens that did not lay enough could be disposed of. In the handling of the hens in some of the fl ocks that we culled, we found other conditions to remedy. In Charlie Ogle's flock of White Leghorns for instance we discovered they were not laying on account of the lice. I informed hina of the fact, suggested what to do for the lice and offered to dip the chickens for him if he would obtain the sodium jlourid,. He obtained the chemical and the fowls were dipped before the class. This trip with a further study taught the boys how to combat li ce and what a simp le and inexpensive operation it was. Thus, wherever possible I endeavor to teach by a practical application on some farm in the community.
During a week in September I was able to secure several sets .of slides, including special slides on uFarm Poultry" and uOrchard Management." Seven com.munity meetings were held at which these pictures were shown and a talk made on the subjects. At the Gatlinburg meeting a community fair association was organized for a fair in the eleventh district. Some of the farmers are beginning to show a response to the work for I have had personal inquiries with requests to show them how to do certain things on their farms.

The great event of the year in the lives of the boys at Gatlinburg was their visit conducted by Mr. Mattil to the Agri cultural Fair at Knoxville, in September. Read the story of this experience and you will realize in a measure what possibilities lie before us in the development of our department of vocational agriculture.

THE TRIP TO THE FAIR
By 0.]. MAITIL
As I am a great believer in the educational value of a Fair, I felt that it would be a fine thing if I cou ld get my agriculture class to the East T ennessee Division Fair at K noxv ille. The boys seemed eage r enough b ut I feared that the expenses wo uld keep mos t of them from going. After arrangements were made wher eby expenses would be as low as possible, only $1.50 with a little spending m oney being necessary, I was surprised to find eigh teen ou t o f the twenty -one boys signified their intentions of going.
Arrangements were all made and the boys were instruc t ed to meet by five o'clock at Ca lvin Ogle's store. HWhat tim e is that]!' "Is that about sunrise?" "Is that before daybreak?" and other similar questions were asked. I informed them as near as possible what time by the sun five A. M was but I began to get visions of what difficu lty I would have to get the whole crowd assembled on tim e. But excitement helped me DU 1, for the anticipation of going to the faiT caused these boys to arise hours too soon, many in the 'wee sma' hours of the m orn ing ' and long before time to start I co uld hear their impatient voices. Excitf'ment failed to reach the rather unresponsive nature of one o f these mountain boys, however , who slept an hour too long and was left behind. But seventeen who arrived before the appointed hour started walking towards Banner , three miles distant, where they were to meet the tru c k which was to carr y us into Knoxville.
\Vishing to have work done on my car a t Sevierville , r planned to ride that far in my car and then join the t.ruck . Ar riving at Banner I found the cro wd impatiently waiting for the truck which failed to appear. Time rolled by and we decided to start towards P igeon Forge by car, a distance of four miles , mountain road graded, but some of it not any too smooth to travel with ease . If you can picture seventeen persons weighing anywhere from seventy-five to one hundred fifty p o unds on a Ford roadster you can appreciate the sight at which the people along the r oadside and in the fields stopped to look with the keenest curiosity. A circus wagon come to town would hardly have attracted more attention. At Pigeon Forge we found the truck loading with straw and it was not long before the crowd was on it. way towards Knoxville
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
Among the more serious things heard during the ride were: I' What's that big, round thing over side of that barn?" They were told it was a silo, and its use was explained. . A body of water was noticed and one of the boys asked: UWhat's that waler ove r there?" The answer carne: "A small lake or a pond ." "Why, I don't see any place where it can run off." After the explanation was made as to what a lake was, another boy whose geography had evidently been making more of an impression chimed in naming Lake Huron, Lake Mi chigan, Lake Superior and Lake Ontario.
IIPeople s ur e do have fine l arge barns around here, why most o( them are better than any of our houses ," said one. IIWhy there is one of the kind of chicken houses like we have been studying about," said another . 11Th ere's another kind!' These and many other remarks were heard between t he shouting and singing of the group as the truck bounced and jolted over the rough pike. As we neared Knoxville the roadbed improved , the riding became easier, and soon one of the boys exclaimed: liN ow we can bum the wind for we ar e on the Rttbbl!r pike." So swifter we sped a l ong over the asphalt pavements reaching our destination about nine forty-five, and then the fun comme n ced.
To endeavor to record my experience in taking seventeen mountain boys, from one part of the grounds to another would fill a volume. Most of them had never seen a fair and on l y a very few had ever been to a city such as Knoxville. A few had never been as far out of Gatlinburg as the nearest town of Sevierville. Condu cting them was no small task but still it was almost as much fun as a regular circus to hear and to see how these mountain boys were reacting to the things they were experiencing. Some would exclaim about this or that-others would ask any number of questions, very often very foolish ones-still others were so overawed that they appeared to be struck dumb and with eyes atwinkle, fairly popping from their sockets and mouths agape, they gazed on the new and strange things as we made the rounds of the fair. The livestock, poultry, farm products and all oth'er exhibits were viewed and the places of amusements, the midway, the free vaudeville shows, th e ice cream cone and peanut stands and the airplanes were not neglected.
For the boys it was one thrill after another "Oh, look what a big hog, r don't helieve we could ever raise that kind ." Too much
NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON 257
of a contrast between 3n 1,100 pound hog and a razor back! "Gee, that's fine riding I'm going to save my money and ride that roller coaster some more," Thus it went from exhibits to amusements.
An airplane appeared and every moment of its flight the boys watched with almost breathless amazement. The acrobatic stunts held them spellbound at times and so incredulous did they appear that on several occasions the question was put: "Why, that's not a man; that's not a woman, is it?"
A fteT witnessing a gorgeous display of fireworks that night we boarded a street car and went "to take in" the city. The boys were all tired by this time and were soon ready to turn in for the night and I wasn't sorry either for they had about worn me out several hours before.
I asked the boys to wait while r went into a building near the principal corner of Knoxville. When r returned what did r see but the whole bunch lined up sitting on the curbing in front of the building, a sight unusual enough to excite the curiosity of the fair sized crowd still on the street. As I gave the accustomed signal, a whistle, the whole line were on their feet. They had to cross the street and even at this hour trolleys and automobiles traveled so the boys did not walk across the street, that was too tame for them they wanted to make sure they reached. the other side in a hurry so they made it on a dead run. I t was a ridiculous sight to see them scramble across the main comer of the city on a hop like scared rabbits. Many of the boys had enjoyed their first street car ride so much that they were disappointed to find that it would be unnecessary to take a street car to OUT destination for the night. The next morning most of the boys were ready to return home so at an early hour we started.
What these boys gained and retained from their trip would be hard to determine but it will be a long time before they will cease talking of what they saw. When asked to write a paper on what they had seen at the fair ·they exclaimed: "Don't get us started OD that for we can't ever tell you all, nor can we ever stop telling."
One result of the trip was discovered the next day of school. After chapel exercises Miss Chew advised the boys that the barbed wire fences were to keep in the stock and if they were walked on very much would soon be useless for that purpose and suggested that fOl future acrobatic stunts like wire walking it would be best to stretch
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
a special wire. This was done and the boys for the next few weeks displayed their skill in walking on the wire Early in the morning of the day of the Gatlinburg Fair I noticed several boys approaching with a small Toll of wire and upon inquiry I learned that they con· templated giving a special performance at the fair. It was rather late to construct a suitable place to stretch a wire so the fair committee feels that it lost a very attractive featu re when it missed this treat of high wire performance. To recompense this l oss the committee expects to assure this attraction for the coming fair of 1923 by an option.
It is hoped that this tri p to the fair has left other impressions of greater lasting value. The boys are already talking of going back again next year so the trip to the East Tennessee Division Fair seems to be an assured annual event .
The community fair association which was o rganized in Gatlinburg in September achieved a marked success in its efforts to put on a fair in the eleventh district. The event was very pop ular and the crowd which attended far outnumbered any gathering which had previously been held in the neighborhood. The following extracts are taken from the report written for the Sevierville Vindicator by Mrs. Anna Dowell of the School staff.

At all fairs everybody is interested in the horse shows and raccs and this was no ex ception, for everyone was out to see the saddle horses and their riden, ladies and c hildren as well as men. One would hardly think there were so many good saddlers in so small a communjty but there were about twenty in the ring for gaits and races.
In the tchool exhibits the Gatlinburg School did not compete with the others in the general exhibits or con tests but only in individual conteltl, as the officers did not think it Quite fair as the school was in the community putting on the fair and that would give it an advantage over the othetl.

Consequently there are no alumnre clubs and the organization of Pan hellenic was welcomed by every o ne Grace Donnelly, Missouri B, of Pi Beta Phi, was elected president; Mrs. A. H. Williams, an Indiana Delta Gamma, secretary; and Mrs. R. F. Taylor, Chi Omega from T exas University , treasurer. We drew u p our by -laws, having communicated with Natio nal Panhellenic regarding our organization.
Our membership i s steadily increasing and since there a r e so many newcomers as well as some old residents who have not yet joined us, we hope next yea r to have a much larger o rganization. We expect some members, too, from O r ange and Port Arthur, our sister cities and neighbors, as they have no or ganizations of their own.
We have endeavo r ed to keep befo r e the public mind the fact that Panhellenic was not o r ganized for social purposes alone but is working for a worthy cause . 'V e want it to be r ecognized among the othe r clubs of the city as having an in t e r est in the welfare of the community, especia ll y in promoting t he desire for and enco uraging co ll ege ed u cati ons.
Our endeavo r is the giving of a univ e rs ity scholarship of $ 200 to the most worthy girl high school graduate each year. By giving a musical t ea and tw o benefit ca rd parties we raised the desired amount and even had a neat little sum left to begin with next year . Throughout the year we have given one doHar monthly to the American Legion Auxiliary to help disabled soldiers.
OUT meetings held the iirst Saturday of each month in the attractive par l ors of the Y. W. C. A. were preceded by very delightful luncheons which us the social hour together before the business session. At the last meeting in May new office,rs fo r the next year were elected with: Lois Cunnjngham, Chi Omega, Texas University, president j l\frs H C. Bailiff, Pi Beta Phi, Columbia A , vicepresident; Mrs. C. W. Bingman, Gamma Phi Beta , Wisconsin, secreta r y j and Kimbrough Swift, Sigma Kappa, Texas , treasurer.
Before our final adjournment for the summer our new p r esident
entertained us delightflllly at her home with a musical program and a social houT, introducing to us our first scholarship girl, of whom we already feel very proud. We feel that for a rather small organization we have had a very successful beginning, and we hope to gain steadily in strength so that we may accomplish more from year to year.

A PANHELLENIC HOUSE BY '9'3
In the spring of 1920 at the inspiration of Winifred Hill Maxfield, II B 4>, the groups of the eighteen Pan hellenic fraternitiu in New York City were invited to a meeting at the home of Lillisn McDowell Hanan, II n to (orm a city Panhellenic association, largely (or social purposes. Immediately upon organization at the held at the home of Merrill Scott, .6. r, the [oHowing fall, the potential power of this new society was felt and it soon became appare.nt that the unification of more than three thousand women could and should stand for something of real value. At the spring in 1921, it was decided to present a scholarship cup to the fraternities at Adelphi and it was suggested by Minnie Royse Walk er, K K r, and was lat er decided that the Panhellenic Association of New York City should have a clubhouse-a house where some could live permanently and others might have temporary accommodations. To that end a house committee was appointed to investigate what other associations and clubs ha d done and to s uggest what it was possible for the Pan hellenic Association to do.
The committee put in a strenuous winter and spdng investigating. Two othe r similar clubs already in operation in New York City are the Bryn Mawr Club and the Smith College Club They were each financed, and arc both ope rated , by the members for the use of members and friends. They are both built-over houses and both are now too sma ll for the demands made upon them, although the Smith College Club accommodates over seventy-five. The Harriet Judson Memorial Home in Brooklyn and Tatham H ouse io New York, both run by the Y. W. C. A., though larger th a nl the Smith College Club, have loog waiting lists and say that if they were twice as large they ceu ld easily fill all their r ooms In the case of the Harriet Judson Memorial H o m e this means accommodations for over four hundred people. The H arriet Judson and Tatham House are not business propositions_ The original cost of the buildings was a gift and they are exempt from tax payments, thus making the management of them aD enlirely different problem than that of the management of the Panhellenic H o use. H oweve r, they eac h make a sma ll profit each year Ilnd they charge the low rates of up for room and board. The Parnassu.s Club of New York City is a wholly business undertaking and has succeeded so wen that their field of operation has been greatly extended since the beginning_ The rates charged here are $16.00 up for board and room_ Smith College Club was opened a year ago last October, and the first fiscal year was success-

fully completed; the interest on the stocks and bonds being paid, .nd the mortgage reduced , leaving a surplus fo r a sinking fund
The size of a clubhouse is determined by a number of different {acton seemingly independent, and the experience of these clubs led the hOBse committee to the conclusion that there was more to be lost by building too small than too large. The size depends first on the foom rent you wish to charge, second upon the income you wish the building to yield, and third, the number you wish to accommodate. taking for granted, of course, that yon wish the cl u bbouse to be well-built and self·supporting. One might think that the amount of money to be spent might have something to do with it, but strange to say it is a seconda r y matter with a building of this kind. All these factors were carduny considered and a house accommodating approximately four hundred was recommended. An interesting point is that a house of this character accommodating one hundred will just pay expenses. The income from rents over one hundred increases the profit or reduces the room r ents
Because other clubs had rebuilt, the cost of rebuilding was investigated and was found to be very high-sometimes fitly per cent of the original cost of the property with a result that is never entirely satisfactory, necessarily being a corqbination of compromises, and in addition requiring a constll.nt outlay for repairs and replacements. Even in the case o"C a small club this seemed to be a serious factor, so that regardless oC size it seemed wisest to build.
Closely connected with the question of building is that of financing, and groups of individuals cannot consider the raising of money until they are incorporated. The ho.se committee has incorporated as the Pauhe ll enic House Association, Inc .• but the power of management is vested in the stockholders in proportion to the amount of voting stock owned. It has been suggested that this voting stock be owned in equal amounts by the different fraternities in the names oC individual members. The reason Cor incorporating this way is that it places the r esponsib il ity of management on the investors, and t he conc lusion s of the ho use committee were that the cause of lack of success where it was found in New York clubs was due to the fact that the management was not in the hands of the investors who are naturally the ones most vitally interested in th e fini.ncial success of the undertakingt It was deemed wise to limit this cont r ol to Panhellenic members so that the purpose and ideals for which the PanheUenic H ouse is to be built cannot be sacrificed to a po.rely profitmaking business. About $300,000 will be raised by the sale of stock-$zoo,ooo preferred bearing six per cent interest, snd $100,000 common bearing dividends-and $600,000 by the sale of bonds and mortgages. The stock will be sold in shares of $50.00 pa r value.
To discuss the Qrgent need for right living conditiOQS for the younger graduates who come to New York City each year, to tell of the exorbitant prices they have to pay now, to enumerate the advantages of a Panhel1enic House as planned would be impossible ift this article, the purpose of which is to let every fraternity *oman know what has been done so far, and to get from her an individual express ion of opinion.

BOOK REVIEWS
The Bozeman Trail: historical accounts of the blazing of the overland routes into the Northwest and fights with Red Cloud's warriors, by Grace Raymond Hebard (Iowa Z) and E. A. Brininstool. 1922. Arthur Clark Co. 2 v. $12.50 .
The Boseman Trail" the latest of Dr. Hebard's works dealing with the history of Wyoming, is a distinct contribution to the historical literature of this country, based as it is upon original sources before untouched, and telling the story of a heretofore neglected but important and picturesque step in the development of the Far Northwest. The subject of the Indian wars in the West is one usually passed over with little comment by writers of history.
The stories of the Santa Fe Trail through the Southwest and of the Oregon Trail are familiar to all readers of our history, but about the other routes, opening the section to the north of the Oregon Trail littJe has been known. If the Santa Fe Trail was a road of commerce, the Oregon Trail the path of the homesteader, the Overland Trail the route of the mail and express, the Bozeman Trail was the battle ground of the fighting Sioux. It led through the very heart of the territory granted to the Indians by treaties which, unhappily, were kept by neither white man nor red Here the Indians under Red Cloud, the famous Sioux chief, made a last stand against the white invasion of their hunting-grounds. The hardships and dangers of the pioneers and gold-seekers in this land, and of the soldiers sent
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
to protect them, are among the most interesting and thrilling in the openi ng of the Far Northwest, told as many of them are in this book in the wo rds of the participants themselves. The ride of J oho Phillips over two hundred miles in snow and blizZo/d and through the lines of hostile Indians to bring relief to Fort Phil Kearney can scarcely be equalled in our history for danger and daring. The Wagon·box and Haystack fights are among the most extraordinary encounters between Indians and white men. The pi cture given by Red Cloud, the Red Napole on of the plains, by Captain Cook, for more than thirty years his intimate friend, shows the Indian chief as a steadfast friend, a great student of Nature, as well as a noted r ndian statesman and fight er.
The. introduction is by General Charles King, himself a veteran of th e Indian wars and a participant in the struggle along th e Bozeman Trail.
The illustrations are by no means the least interesting and valuable part of the work. Most of them have never before been reprodu ced and are from original drawings made by soldjers while on duty on the Trail. Others were drawn by Dr. Hebard from information furnished by men who took part in the events depicted. These are supp lemented by photographs, some of them taken by the authors on th ei r trips over the old trail. The two folding maps of the Oregon Trail and Overland Stage Route and of the Bozeman T rail, prepared by Dr. Hebard, add much to the interest of the volumes, while the comprehensive anaIy"tical index makes the work of value for referen ce as well for reading .
Several poems appearing in recent magaz ines are of interest to Pi Phis. IIReward," in the Hom e Companion for October, is by Blanche Allen Bane-Kuder, Pennsylvania B.

Outwitting Our Nervts J by Josephine A. Jackson, M.D., and H elen M. Salisbury is just off th e press of The Century Company, New York.
"Full wise is he that can himselven knowen" wrote Chau cer in the Afonk"s Tale, and centuries later Pope exclaimed: "Know then thyself-presume not God to scanThe proper study of mankind is man," but it is only during the last decade that the general public has come to recognize how vital is the truth contained in such sayings and in similar observations by the philosophers of all ages. ow writes the author of Outwitting Our N since lithe highest type of genius is the man whose conscious and subconscious minds work together in perfect harmony, each up to its full power," and "if, as many believe, the next great strides of science are to be in this direcl io n, it may pay some of us to be pioneers in this direction in learning how to make use of these undeveloped riches of memory, organizati o n and surp lu s energy."
Outwitting Our Nerves is a book for the well, as well as the ilia fascinating study of the human beiqg from both physical and psychological standpoints. The modern student who is versed in the theories of applied psychology in the present day will find it both practical and helpful. Students of an older generation whose recent reading has not been along these lines will find the volume which is most delightfully written in a popular vein, very illuminating.
Dr. Jackson has a message. She beHeves that "Thinking straight has become a hygienic as well as a moral duty," and that reeducation fo r the present generation and the right kind of education in the future will lead to the solution of many vital problems.
The vo lum e is provocative of thought and no one can lay it down witho ut f ee lin g the truth of the quotations from a poem from Rebecca Williams found near the end of the book:
Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate, As we journey along througb life; 'Tis the set of the loul that decides the goal, And Dot the calm or the strife.

Mrs. Holway's death occurred at her home on Buena Vista Way in July, just a few weeks before the book was published. Mrs. Holway has been a devoted friend to the students of the university during her twenty years' residence here. She was intensely interested in art and had devoted years to the study of Spanish art, and in visiting the early missions and museums of California to see the art objects, before writing her book.
Bernard Maybeck, noted architect , wrote the foreword in which he said: "The reader of this delightful book by Mary Gordon Holway will have an intriguing glimpse into those little known in8.uences that were at work during the early period of California and Mexico."
The book has 225 pages and twenty-nine full page illustrations . These include pictures in the early missions, early types of arts , photographs taken by Professor Holway and pen sketches which Mrs. Holway secured from a monk.

IN MEMORIAM
SMALL (Mrs. W. F.), RAINIE ADAMSON, Illinois B , First Grand President of II B 01> and later Grand Historian of the fraternity, died on June 24, 1922, at her home in Everett, Wash. She is survived by her husband, Wallace F. Small, Lombard COllege, '85, who is a member of 11 T 11 .
M TS. Small was born near Drammen, in Norway, February 2, 1861, and that summer came with her family in a sailing vessel to this country to live on the prairies of Minnesota near Swan Lake. The first year was spent on a rented place where her father, being a good carpente r, fed and clothed his family by helping the older settlers in their building.
The next year when the Indians rose against the settlers, she, with others, was bundled into an ox wagon and hurried out of rea ch of the murderous Si o ux who could be seen on grain stacks less than two miles away, dancing and waving th ei r blankets.
The life of the girl until she had reached young womanhood was one of great ambition, and self-sacrifice. Making her own way she attended the University of Colorado, and in the fall of 1882 went to Illinois, where she entered Lombard College, Galesburg. Four years later she r eceived the degree of B.S. and on that same evening was united in marriage to \Vallace F. Small, then pasto r of the Blue Island Universalist Church .
Afte r four years in the middle west, Mr. and Mrs. Small mov ed to Seattle, later settling on a forty -acre pre·emption near Lake Stevens. From the time she entevd that far western state until her
death, Mrs. Small was busy with educational work. She taught many schools and twice served as superintendent of schools of Snohomish County. IIShe was the pioneer of the many women who are today intelligently taking active part in public life. She .vas keen and farsighted and capable."
She was ever an untiring worker in the cause of woman, helping to gain equal suffrage in this and other states; was an advocate of good Toads and all public improvements j was a believer in college fraternities, helping to organize an alumnre club of Pi Beta Phi, and to establish an active chapter in the Washington State Universitythis against strong opposition. She was a member of Illinois H, and in 1885 was elected national president, and was twice reelected to that office , during which time she conducted three national conventions, In 1890 she resigned the office and was elected historian , resigning after two years.
She was a member and worker in many organizations, including the Woman's Relief Corps, Everett Book Club, Snohomish Cosmopolitan Club, Washington State and National Educational Association, Garden City and Pomona Grange, National Dahlia SOCiety of and Everett Commercial Club.
Funeral services were held June 27, at the Trinity Episcopal Church, Everett, Rev. Edgar Rogers, pastor, reading the service. Cremation took place at the Washelli Crematory , Seattle_
Sunday afternoon, July 16, 1922, in the presence of surviving relatives and friends, and with appropriate ceremony, her ashes were consigned to the waters of Puget Sound at low tide by being placed with Bowers upon a large boulder off the southeast point of Gedney (Hat) Ts land.
In the death of Mr>. Small, Pi Beta Phi lost a most loyal and ardent worker-one who gave untiringly of herself to further the ideals o f her fraternity.
(Mrs. Russell), BESS BABCOCK, Washington B , 1914, died at her home in Walla Walla, Wash., August 14 after a brief illness. She was initiated into Washington B in 1913, was graduated from Washington State College, and later attended Berkeley.
Being active in school work, Bess had many friends. She was a
member of r T, senior honorary organization for women and wu actively interested in dramatics.
On November 16, 1919, she was married to Russell Cunningham. Besides her husband she leaves two chHd ren, her parents, two brothers and one sister.
H OLWAY (Mrs. RutlilT S.), MARY GORDON, died July 18, 1912, at her home in Berkeley, Cal. She was initiated into California B, in 1915, dUIing the conventioR of that year.
Her very deep lov e for n B cz, was beautiful and always an inspiration to the chapters with which she was associated, and to all Pi Phis who knew her. As chairman of the Scholarship Committee of Kappa Province, her kind spirit and gentle crI ti cism formed an incentive for the girl s to excel.
Mrs. Holway was always prominent and beloved on the campus of the University of California where Dr. Holway is at the head of the geography department. Since 1902 she had been untiring in her efforts on behalf of the women students. It was a recognized fact that she lived for the student body and her place can never be filled in it.
She became state chairman of the State University cl u bho use loan fund and during the past year superintended the furnishing of six clubhouses. All groups sought her advice and help i n times of difficulty , and her eagerness to serve was the keynote of her life . As an appreciation for h e r splendid work, Panhell enic of the ca mpus is forming a scholarship in her name .
tt is only natural that one whose life was so heautiful should have a g r eat love o f art, and s he contri buted to it. Mrs . HoI · way served as state chairman of art for the Califo rni a Federation of Woman's C lubs in 19 1 1-22 . Her new book, A rl of Ih e Old IVorld i" JVew Spain and 'ht "fission Days 0/ Alia Cali/ornia l was puh li shed 50011 after her death .

HEALTH I No definition of health need be given to educated persons. Nor do we need to stress the advantages of good health to such. But, in these strenuous days when there seems so much to be done in such a little space of time we do consider it essential to place before the members of our fraternity the ideas of health and personal hygiene and to call to their the fact tha t Pi Beta Phi as a fraterinty has adopted a Health Program in order that ou r members may be better, stronger citizens-may help to keep their communities free from disease and may make the world a better place to live in.
CONV ENTION I The call of convention has again been sounded. The intervening weeks will slip quickly away unti l we find ourselves at the foot of the Great Rockies ready to work, to play and to plan. Convention means the bringing together of the entire Pi Phi family. There will be many problems to be considered but often matters, which when written in cold type loom as problems, are easily solved and smoothed away through the spoken word, and by personal contact. The mountain air of Estes Park should stimulate every convention delegate and attendant to do the most constructive work imaginable. The snow -capped peaks nearby our headquarters will prove an inspiration. Are you going to answer the call of convention-and of th e West?
EDUCATION-WHAT KIND? Not many years ago higher education was limited almost strictly to liberal arts including the classical courses . But within the last decade vocational training both in high schools and in coUeges has made rapid strides. Today we find "Vocational ;\'ersus Liberal Education" one of the most widely discussed subjects among leading educators. According to the N York Timu, IIPhi Beta Kappa is planning to raise $1,000,000 and provide a permanent headquarters in New York City to defend liberal education against the inroads of vocational ing in high schools and coUeges in the United States. It is also hoped that a permanent memorial of the society's Fifty Founders will be established at the CoUege of William and Mary in Virginia."
President Edward A. Birge, of the University of Wisconsin, who is also president of Phi Beta Kappa said:
"In the last century election to Phi Beta Kappa meant that the student had reached success along lines. of study universa\1y accepted as standard in higher education_ Today the tendency toward vocational education is SO great that there is urgent need of an ac· tive, coherent organization, both within the colleges and outside of them, of the forces that stand for liberal education. Can a better center be found for such an oranization than is offered by Phi Beta Kappa?
IIDT. Oscar M. Voorhees, National Secretary of the society, said the council at Cleveland would consider the offer of an anonymous donor to add one-tenth to a\1 funds raised by the members during the next five years:lS:l fund to carryon this work, and maintain a central organization in New York. 'The re are 45,000 members of the society and it is expected they will raise from $500,000 to $1,000,000."
THE I TERCOLLEGIATE BUREAU OF OCCUPATIONS,
incorporated in 1911, in New York City, and managed by the New York A lumnre Associations of nine leading eastern colleges for women, was absorbed in 1918 by the United States Employment Service under the Department of Labor. The members of the intercollegiate Bureau were transferred to the Federal payroll and all of the records of the Bureau were placed at the disposal of the government. For more than a year the work under this new system continued until the appropriation made for it was exhausted.
As a result , in the spring of 1919, the Bureau of Vocational Information was established to perpetuate the work so well begun by the educational and re sea r ch department of th e Intercollegiate Bureau. This bureau belie \'es in the "power of facts as the best guide into occupational life, and in the ability of mature women to choose their proper work when once given such fundamental fa cts." In o rd er to disseminate these fa cts the Bureau is publishing the which is sent free to members of the Bureau or $1.00 a year to subscribers. Information concerning the Bureau and its work may be obtained from 2 West 3rd St., New York City. On the Advisory Council of the Bureau may be found 'the names of very eminent eastern educators.
FUND OF $1 ,000,000. On October 7, Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, Iowa r, sailed for Rome where she will arrange for an international congress of the W oman 's Suffrage allian ce. Before sailing Mrs.
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
Catt delivered to the Secretary and Treasurer of Iowa State College at Ames, I owa, $100 ,000 in bonds and securities, which sum is to be used as a pennanent fund, the larger part of the income being apportioned as scho larshi ps to worthy students. During her life· time Mrs. Catt will have the privilege of using th e income of the gift, after which rhe college will have the full benefit of the funds. Mr. Catt who was graduated from Iowa State College in 1882, was a member of a T .0. , and during hi'i lifetime attained rank as one of th e "most eminent of American engineers. He organized the Atlantic and Gulf Dredging Company and engaged in important ente rpr ises in this and other countries. At the time of his death in 1905, Mr. Catt made provision in his will for the gift of his large engineering library to I owa State College, and also for another bequest, estimated at $72,000 . Certain defects in the will, however, caused this prov ision to be set aside. But the purpose of Mr. and Mrs . Cat t , decided upon l ong before, to do something for the students of their co llege, was not set aside. Mrs. Ca tt adhered to that and not on ly presented the original amount of the bequest but gave enough more to make it an even $100,000. Both Mr. and Mrs. Catt ear ned their way through co llege ."
SPECIAL ATTENTION is called to the r ecent Constitutional amendment relativ e to the breaking of pledges. According to the amendment special noti ce should be sent to every chapter of Pi Beta Phi and to .11 members of the Grand Council upon the breaking of a pledge. The regular notification blanks to be used for this purpose may be purchased from the Grand Treasurer.
PANHELLENIC HOUSE . Undoubtedly the biggest thing ever undertaken by an organized group of fraternity women representing national Greek-letter societies is the Panhelleni c House which is being promoted by the New York City Panhellenic. It is urged that every reader of THE ARROW give special attention to the article concerning this big clubhouse for co llege women which appears in this issue of o ur magazine.
THE PASSING OF THE CHAPERON. There has recently been copied in severa l fraterni ty magazines an article from the pen of Dean Thomas Arkle Clark, A T 0, which was originally published in the A tianJic Monthly, March, 1922. The gis t of the article is perfectly expressed in the title. Told in the usual straight-
forward, interesting manner of Dean Clark, this picture of modem soci.l conditions is indeed food for thought. It should be selected and read at every chapter house. Such an article strikes home in these days of social freedom. And as Dean Clark says: "I am sorry."
PtF: DGES may attend all cooky-shines except those following an initiation. Since there seems to be some misunderstanding concerning the status of pledges, attention is called to the fact that the ruling which says that pledges shall not attend "initiation banquets or cooky-shines" refers only to those held after an initiation.
CONCERNING the weddin g of Lulu H. Clark, fonner Grand Secretary, the Dayton Daily f'.l eti'S of October 7, says:
As the first shades of twilight were falling. the marriage of MilS Lolu H elen Clark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs . Joseph Dayton Clark, 1038 Salem Avenue, to Paul Ingraham of Boston, was solemnir.ed at the First Baptist Chureh, Saturday aftemoon at four o'clock in the presence of a large number of invited guests.
The service was read by the Rev. ]. S. lGrtley from the candle lighted altar which was banked with pa1ms and bay trees. Southem smilax was festooned about the chancel rail forming an effective background for the clusters of white cosmos and ch ry santhem ums used in decoration. While the guests assembled, Mrs. Clara O. Lyman gave an organ redla1 of wedding music, playing Han · del's "Come Beloved,l' Saint Saens' ''The Swan," Lint's "Liebestraum," "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice," from Sam/Oil and Delilah , and the wedding music trom the first act of Loltengr;n. As she played "The Vo;ce thai Breathes Therein." the bridesmaids walked down the aisles of the church, proceeding from the vestry doors on either side of the chancel to the entrance door where the bride and her father awaited them.
Led by the ushers the bridal procession then moved through the east aisle to the altar where they were met by the bridegroom , his best man, Donald Ingraham, of Boston, and the officiating clergyman. The bride wore a hand · some wedding gown of white crepe romaine which was heavily embroidered with pearl and crystal beads. Beaded panels were arranged at either side of the skirt, giying the uneven hem line, and a drapery of rose point lace fell (rom the shoulder. The same lace in a coronet held the tune yeil with clusters of orange blossoms. The lA;Ce·bordered veil reached to the edge of a long court train which gave an added stateliness to the gown. She wore the gift of the bridegroom, a bar pin of platinum set with diamonds. Her flowers were a shower of tiny white chrysanthemums, dahlias and jasmine.
Two of the bridesmaids, the Misses Laura Henderson of St. Joseph, Mo., and Elizabeth Lnuver of Detroit, wore {rocks of gold crepe chiffon graceful1y draped and caught with silver girdles. Their slippers were of silver, and large black picture hats of panne velvet completed their costume.. They carried bouquets of tiny yellow dsh1iu and chrYlanthemums. The other two brides·

maids, the Misses Margaret Von Voorhis of Zanesville, and Aileen Clark of Baltimore, cousin of the bride, wore gowns .imi l arly fashioned but of green crepe chiffon with the silver accessories Bnd hlack hats, and carried bouqu ets of tbe same golden hues.
The maid of honor, Miss Sarah Clark, si s ter of the bride. wore gold, and the matron of honor, Mrs. Paul Oark, was in green chiffon crepe, both gowns being fashioned in the manner of the bridesmaids'.
The ushers were the Messn. Paul Cummings, Hammond Fitzgerald. B. Earle Appleton and Paul F. Clarke of Boston, and Dwight Estabrook of this city.
Foll owing the ceremony a reception was held at the Dayton Woman's Club. which was attended by more than 200 guests In the receiving tine with Mr. and Mrs. In graham were Mr. and Mrs. Clark, and Mrs. A. O. Spear of Athol, Mass., lister of the bridegroom. Mrs. Clark wore for her daughter's wedd ing a handsome toilette of orchid crepe romaine draped and trimmed with crystal embroidery. Her hat wu of violet velvet and she wore a corsage of violets and orchids. Mrs. Spear was in black lace.
A buffet luncheon was served. The bridal table was set at the end of the club tea room, and the colors of green and gold used in the wedding appoint· ments were repeated in the Howers and candles u sed in the decoration of the table. In addition to the bridal party there were seated at the table Miss Dorothy Woodward of Clearfield, Pa., and George Spear o{ Athol, Mass. The bride g.ave as gifts to her maids. silver vanity cases, and the ushers were presented with gold cuff links by the bridegroom.

At the time of writing, the members of Ontario A are busily plaoDine for their membership campaign, whi ch is close upon tbem. This promises to be • strenuous season, but w ith the loyal support of splendid alumnz. they hope to win a number of exceptionally fine girls (or the wine and blue. An innovation bas been introduced this year by Panhellenic, namely, tbat the lilt of of fraternities represented in PtlDhelienic and a copy of the Panhellenic constitution are to be e&::losed in the first invitation to 8..- new &irl for a party, instead of in the invitations to membership at tbe end, as formerly.
Pi Phis are this year active in Illlipheres of campus activi ties. They are well represented on all the year executives, the literary and athletic organizations. and on the staff of the college paper.
Margaret Thomas attended the Student Christian Movement Conference in Muskoka, in September, and came back full of enthusiasm for the work of the movement. Il er spiri t has proved very contagious, and a number of girls are taking active part in the forums and Bible groups whi ch she spends. large part of her tim e in promoting These forums are group. for the discussion of national, social, and economi c questions and international relationships, about whic h college women as .tudents and citizens should be informed. This is all in preparation for a Canadian conference of the S. C. M., which is to be held in Toronto during the Christmas holidays, when student. will meet to dile uss matters of moment to them. individually and .s a whole.
Miss Margaret Wrong, a former member of the staff of the University of Toronto, who has spent the past year traveling for the S. C. M. among the students of centra l Europe, has been here during these opening weeks of She has brought many inspiring mHsagel U well as useful information from her travel s, and especially has made the women conscious of the bond of common interests and 4ims which unites students the world over.
On Octobe r 14 the annual autumn tea was held in University College. This is given by the women's un de rgradua te association, and is the official welcome to the freshmen. The wives of the facttlty are also guests of the occasion.
Alterations and additions are proceeding apace on the property purchased last year for a new women', union for University College. It is expected that this building will be ready for occupation by Christmas, and it promises 10 be a great boon to the women students of the college .
The football season has opened very auspicio u sly. University of Toronto has two senior teams thil year, one in tbe intercol1egiate league and one in the Ontario Rugby Football Union. Both are proving themselves worthy sonl of their Alma Mater.

INITIATE
(Initiated October 2, 1922)
Margaret Manchester, '23. Northeast Harbor, Me.
The Unhersity of Maine opened its college year September 21 with an enthusiastic return of the old Maine spirit. This was dut, in part, to the new president of the university, Dr. Clarence C. Little, through whose guidance we anticipate great results for Maine and Maine A.
The members of Maine A. have started the fall term with a strong determination to make the highest goal possible in scholarship and in the membership campaign. Maine A finds itself with only twelve members, one initiate, and one pledge; yet this does not lessen its enthusiasm. The chapter introduces 10 Pi Phi,\om Peggy Manchester, ' 23, who has already proved worthy of the arrow, and a. pledge, Sarah Crehore, '24. Although these new gi rls occupy warm places. the chapter misses the old girls, whose places are hard to fill. Maine A welcomes Sarah Fischer, '25, of Vermont A.
The Y. W. C. A. had chilrge of sistering the freshmen the first two weeks of college, a pllUl which was very successful for getting acquainted This is a Pan hellenic experiment to avoid the usual hectic membership campaigning durinK" the first two weeks when everything is so new and strange. In the midst of campaigning, a great deal of time and consideration is being devoted to new girls.

The openiDg o( the university this year was anticipated with a great deal oC enthusiasm by Columbia A and the chapter was especially pleased to initiate Ruth F oster on the evening oC matriculation day.
Foanders' Day banquet was celeb rated on April 29 with the WashingIon alUmDlIe club. Mrs. Wallace, Mrs. Reinsch, Dr. May Keller, Mrs. Emma Harper Turner, and Mrs. Helmi ck were honored guesls and a very clever program was arranged hy the alumnae.

chapter rooms were also talked over and interest in Itudent activities stimulated.
The uni versity has made it a rule that none of the women's fraternities may pledge freshmen until the second semester. 10 IT B is getting acquainted with the girls by inviting them to lunch in the rooms and by including them in the annual (an parties. As the rule also reads that the chapter must have an aven.ge of 85 per cent in order to freshmen and that the freshmen must have an average of 85 per cent in order to be pledged, the chapter feels that a higher scholarship standard will be attained.
Columbia A is fortunate in having affiliated Mary Schaaff, Maryland A, and in having Etta Taylor of Colorado .A with it this year. They have brought much enthlLSiasm and many new ideas to the chapter.
With a fine n,ew administration building on the campus and an enrollment larger than it has ever had before, Gf'orge Washington University has started another year.

This is an outstanding year in fraternity life at Holl ins. In accordance with the request o{ the faculty last spring local Pan hellenic voted in favor of a two weeks' membership campaign to go into effect this fall. It was the ambition of l ocal Panhellenic to devise some new system for membership campaigning, endeavoring to make it shorter and less detrimental to other college activities of the fraterrtity girls and the freshmen The new system has been very saccessful and has been a great improvement over the prolonged campaign o( previous sessions.
It was with great enthusiasm and some curiosity as to how they would accus· tom themselves to the new rules that ten active Pi Phis returned to college this fall. During the second week of campaigning, n 4J gave a delightful party in the "Kellar" to which all tbe desirable freshmen were invited. Now that the days of suspense are over the chapter's efforts have been more than rewarded by nine unu s ual and very promising pledges.

The girls of Michigan B returned the middle of Septembe r to find the chapter house in splendid condit ion, due to the effective work of the Ann Arbor alumna: club. The fence and blinds had been repainte d , and a number of the rooms freshly papered. In the living·room are new tan draw curtains, the gift of the present junior and senior classes, so withal the house looks more attractive than for some time.
As chaperon the chapter is delighted to have Effie Patch (Michigan A), who is also doing the work of both house manager and s tewardess, thus relieving the girls of a great responsibility.
During the summer the girls had a reunion, in the form of a week ' s houseparty at Crystal Lake, Mich. Twelve of the a c tive and graduating members attended.
The first activity of the year was the fan membership campaign, resulting in the pledgjng of Margaret Stuart, Marshall, lI-f ich.; Kathryn Clarke, Ha stings, Mich.; Helen Hall. Ann Arbor, Mich. i Louise Roberts. Highland Park, Mich.j and Elma Walz, Ann Arbor, all of whom. with the exception of Margaret Stuart, are freshmen. The parties this year were unusually clever and attractive, with the innovation of two formal dinners.
On September 30 occurred the wedding of Hazel Storz, '22, to Paul H. Eaton. She was married at four-thirty, before the fireplace in the living-room, having no attendants and wearing her traveling gown. It was of great interest, especially as it was the fint wedding in the chapter house.
Two n B ¢I girls. Nanette Carnahan and Elizabeth Lauver. were elected to Wyvern. junior girls' honorary society. Helen Delbridge and Dorothy Jeffrey were eJected last spring. In Mortar Board, senior girls' honorary society, is Lucy Huber.
The campaign for the women's league building again occupies a great deal of the interest of the campus. Dorothy Jeffrey, '24, is the chairman, and has many original plans. To earn its quota the chapter is c onducting a rummage sale, which the hearty cooperation of the Ann Arbor alumnse makes possible.
lIn. Cabot, a patroness of this chapter. collected the articles, and has turned tbe sale of them over to the active girls.
The Ohio-Michigan football game is the chie! topic of conversation, for thirty of the girls are pianninl to go to Columbus to attend it. They are aDticipatio&" meeting the Ohio B chapter• • s well u seeing the game.
October 14. the r H l' fraternity, which is Michi2'an Beta's Dcar neighbor, gave a dance for th is chapler in the afternoon at their houR. November 26, n B is giving a formal dance in honor of itl pledges.

There have been several and at one of the women's meetinlr$ the resolution was passed th at no Northwe s tern girl shall be see n with a man on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights and nights before gatnes. Every girl was urged to u se her influence on the men of her acquaintance to aive their all to Northwestern, if not on the football field, in lOme form of college activity. The result of this awakened spirit was that Northwestern defeated Beloit College in the first game of the season with a score of ]7 to D and surprised the University of ChicRgo supporters by holding the maroon team to a ]S to 7 score.

By October 12, Millikin's first registration day, the chapter was again established at 1302 W. Main Street, with Miss Jessie W. Lockett (Illinois H) as chaperon. Eighteen old girls were back.
The first week is always devoted to Y. W. C. A., which has an interesting program with its traditional walk-out, banquet, and reception. A larger enrollment at Mill ikin Ihis year made these affairs even more pleasant and "peppy." Then for two weeks th-e girls have the opportunity of becoming really acquainted with the new girls at fraternity parties, which are given from three to six o'dock, three afternoons each }Veek, and from six to eleven o'c lock one evening of either week-end.
The alumnte dub, which always gives the evening party, surprised the a ctive girls with a pirate party at the Staley Clubhouse. Being held up by pirates as we arrived, and being served by them, while their pirate ship was right there, gave as many thrills to the old girls as it did to the guests. And one would never have guessed that such inhuman looking robbers were really th e best alumnl1! that any chapter could have!

In the editorial column of Banta's Greek Exclulnge we find:
A mQSt interesting development of the day is found in the organiza.tion of Phi Tau Phi. It is a Chinese parallel o( Phi Beta Kappa. If we know anything about Chinese character we may well believe in advance that Phi Tau Phi will preserve all o( the high characteristics of Phi Beta Kappa and parallel it very completely. Of course, it is to be presumed that individual peculiarities of ' Chinese university life will lead to little differences Phi Tau Phi and its prototype, but such differences will not be in essentials.
The fraternity is already established in the leading modern universities of China. Elsewhere in this issue will be found an extract from the China Press of Shanghai which gives the story and is an announcement of the fraternity to American readers. While the American Greek will not come in contact with the fraternity we are glad to welcome it into the same plB!1etary system with us, and only hope that there will be a Chinese Marconi to establish communication with the American planet.

What is claimed to be the finest fraternity pin in the world is one which was made by the house of J. F. Newman for Sigma Nu in honor of the Philadelphia Grand Chapter. In the badge diamonds weighing nineteen carats were used and the retail price of the badge is said to be in excess of $10,000.

ATIENTlON! CORRESPONDING SECRETARIES!
Almost campus i. crowded-not to Illy littered-with Uorganizatloos," clan, social, "bonorary." At one or two colleges, 10 we have heard. there afC even honor societies and interfraternity clubs (or freshmen. Tire CtJdllUfU has ne ver felt any great degree of interest in these affairs. Those who read Qur chapter letters-:tnd no one who wishes to know the frat ernity can omit to read them-may have observed that we have asked our correspondent s to condense the record oC such honotl.
W e bave requested this for "two reaSODS." The one i., that with ninety-two chapters to be heard from, the saving oC even a line in each letter is worth considering, .ince there is a limit to the number of our pages. And the other is: we would. if possible, impress even upon the sophomore that it is vastly more creditable to pass every course and try hard for a team, than it is to be chosen to the Red Ravens or the Cannibal Islanders. The local social , interfra.ternity, interclass, letter. editorial. pep, devilment and other clubs amount to little on the campus and to nothing off it. They divide and scatter the time and strength which would yield targer, and far more permanent returns, if bestowed upon the work of classroom, lab, field and fraternity han.-Cculuu1IJ' of Kappa Sigma.

Recent statistics compiled by the University of Indiana show that those who belong to fraternities are doing better work than the students who belong to no organizations. The scholastic average of the various women's fraternities made on the basis of so many credit points for each hour of work taken in the university is 1.688, while that of the un·organized women is 1.584. The average of all women was 1.672.

AITITUDE. NOT PHYSIQUE
The "average American girl does not excel in swimming as do the girls abroad. Such is the opinion advanced by Miss Mille Gade, the young Y. W. C. A. swimming instructor who recently swam the forty - three miles around Manhattan Island in sixteen hours. The "dolphin of Denmark" believei our main trouble to be not our {railer pbysique as is commonly thougbt, but our attitude toward the water. We regard it flippantly, she says, as an exhibition ground for bathing suits often more elabor.a.te th:lD evening gown., rather than as a medium to a more perfect physical development.
Miss Cades says: "Just as your girls go after co Here diplomas, we go out for swimming degrees. Swimming is not like most sports which develop only ce rtain sets oC mnscles. Back, chest, arms, legs, all are brought into play. A properly trained swimmer should {eel nO more fatigue Crom a fifty·mile swim than ahe would experience (rom a sh ort brisk DC Kappa Delta.

Nothing does more towards making a splendid chapter than the habit of singing. The Quarterly of Alpha Gamma Delta quotes the following concerning thei r Rho Chapter:
I wonder if any other chapter sings as much as Rho docl! Generally it comes between courses at dinner, on Sunday, and on the week nigbts when we are not too tired to be glad to be together. Our repertoire is extremely varied . We start with an Alpha Cam so ng or two. Then come fraternity songs, collected diligently or accidentally by girls {rom the men in all housel on the camp us or anywhere et5C. An unscntimental sister occasionally interrupts the series with "Is Your Mother In, Mollie Maloney?" or "Skinney Ma Rink." Then softly and harmoniously we join in "Oh, Sing Me a Song of Iowa State" and "Don't Send My Boy to Hanard!'
Armistice eve, an open night, we jnviled our pledges over {or tbe night, with the command that they put on a stunt for us. Somehow, we aU gathered round the living-room ••with Clare and a uk e in the cen ter, and sang 'way into the night. We loved it, and yet we realited that the spontaneity of it all was the thing that affected us. Last Saturday night Bess, Harriet and I came home from a dance to find the living- room a scmi-circ1e of men and girls sineing It was almost like a Christmas snrprise and {uJly as nice.
