EDITORIALS

Sympathy

Pi Beta Phi extends deepest sympathy to Zeta Tau Alpha in the lo ss of their charming and efficient President, Louise Kettler Helper.

War Project

The Pi Beta Phi project of scholarships for Physi ca l Therapy training is ofT to a fine sta rt, in spite of the handicap of the recent regretted resignation of Geraldine Mars Ristine, Iowa A, as national chairman, because of the pressure of other work. Her place is being taken by Lois Donald· son Koehler, Florida A, of Chicago, a fine Pi Phi of marked intelligence and ability, who has much to give to the project. The Fraternity Is greatly indebted for advice and assistance to Dr Frank H. Krusen, who is secretary of the subcommittee on Physiotherapy of the National Research Coun· cil, as well as secretary of the section on Physical Medicine of the Mayo Clinic-his work was publicized in the Reader! DigeJl for November, 1942. Ten scholarships have already been awarded, from fraternity funds, and more will be given as contributions from active chapters and alumn", clubs provide funds for them.

Here is a new project of our own, one which will fill a great need in the physical rehabilitation of the wounded of this war. The courses made possible by the generosity of members of Pi Beta Phi wiu 6t girls for direct service with wounded men in Army and Navy Hospitals. The project is one which will have the enthusiastic support of the Fraternity.

Responsibility

These days the Editor meets many fraternity men whc have gone into the armed forces from colJege, and the tributes they pay to their fraternities, often unconsciou sly, make us more than ever aware of the strength of fraternity bonds . One lad told with a glowing face of the party his chapter (all six of the men left in it!) gave for him when he left college; another eulogized the graduate of his chapter, a much older man, who had pledged him self to carryon for his chapte r until its active life could be resumed ; another told of a member who had guaranteed the payments on a large mortgage for the duration; still another said that his chapter house had been taken over by the Navy, but that the boys were continuing the salary of the housemother and the wages of a cook who had been with them for ten years, "so that well be all ready to go on when we get back!"

In cidents like these, and there must be many of them, add up to a sp lendid total of fraternity loyalty and devotion which shou ld be an inspiration to us aU. Such experiences have yet to come to the women in fraternities, and perhaps they will never come. So far, the chapter suspensions have fallen on the men alone ; for the most part there has been no drop in women's enrollment in the colleges, although there have been drastic changes in college courses and in speeding up of graduation; there are even cases where the women 's fraternities have bought or rented fine houses given up by the men.

Education comes to girls with an opportunity for bappy living rare in these days. But with that privilege comes an added responsibility. It is for those fortunate women who remain in college in this world gone mad to think or the responsibility which is theirs, a two fold one: first, to make good in their chosen lines of work, in preparation for post·war days to come;

and most of all, so to live in their chapters as to preserve the continuity of the very existence of the entire fraternity system and the preservation of the ideals for which fraternities stand. "Think on these things," you active chapter girls who live today in what so meone has defined as "the last oasis of privilege."

This Issue

This is strictly a war -t ime ARROW! In it you will find many changes which go deeper than the new design on the covec. Our yellow cover and fine cream·colored paper have gone the way of many good things. Here we use a lighter paper, a nd smaller page margins, in an attempt to give you most of the fin e material at hand, within the limits of government regulations. There are fewer pi ct ures-but not in the section of honor girls, where we have used all the pictures that came in, minus a few that were for some reaSOn unsuitable for reprodu ction. We show this time 1hose girls who have won Phi Beta Kappa and similar honors, and in the March issue wiJI give you the girls who are this year active in Mortar Board. PJease bear with us if your copy of THE ARROW is late-we promise to make the delays as short as possible.

Christmas

Again we face a war time Christmas, but one that will be happier than the last two dark ones, for with it comes promise of victory that cannot surely be too lon g delayed! To all Pi Phis everywhere, a Happy Christmas.

IT WA S a great o ccasion when , on Saturday , April 9, the 85th chapter of Pi Beta Phi , but the first in Connecti c ut . was in stalled at the University of Connecticut, Storrs. A galaxy of stars from the fraternity including Miss Onken , Wild. and Hazel Everett. as · si s ted at this event impressing on the under· graduates the national aspect of our group and the importance of eac h chapter in our chain.

On the Tuesday before, Elizabeth Chalmers Dow, Vermont A ( g en e ral c hairman). Fern Ross, Illinois B, mother of Fran ces Ross , presi . dent of the group at Storrs, Marjorie Eves, Colorado B, Elizabeth Motycka , New York A, and Doris Kibbe, Vermont B, accompanied Ermini e Pollard , Vermont B, our own Alpha East Provin ce vice president , to Storrs to assist her in pledging 62 undergraduates. On the campus were Eleanor Sexton , Illinois Z who had been sent by the fraternity during the winter to help the c hapter in preparing itself for initiation. Too mu ch credit cannot be given her for her cooperation and the broad point of view which she was able to bring to these girls. On the c ampus also were Beth Scott, Oregon B whose husband is a professor at Storrs, and who has been a source of great strength for the Hartford alumnz, and the ac tives, Katherine Tingley, Indiana 6. , Jeannette Gra ce, Minnesota A , and Verta Smith , Washington B Because food was definitely a problem, the participating members brought the!rs a long with them and took time ou t for a PicnI C

Thursday brought Miss Onken and Mrs. Wild to Hartford , and through the machina· tions of Erminie, they were able to drive in a car instead of bus-a real event in these parts! Hazel Everett came in the evening with the official representatives from Massachusetts A and Vermont A. Active chapters represented included Maine A, Vermont A and B, and Massachusetts A. Room was found at the house for these active girls but most of the alumnre who stayed over night were guests in homes of professors . One of our local alumnz was with the authority on Victory gardens and got much advance information!

rnitiation started early Friday morning and (ontinu(d until dinner time. In the evening 22 alumn", members were pledged, after which there was a cooky-shine in the Commu nity house. We didn't realize how many ideas there are around the country as to the way to celebrate a cooky·shine and several arrangements were used- including one large cooky out of which all guests were supposed to take a bite. Of course there was much singing and of congratulatory messages and general gaiety. Early Saturday the ceremony continued and we alJ marveled at Miss Onken's endurance and the gracious reception of each new member as though she were the most important one to be admitted. Eighty seven in all were initiated, probably the largest group ever initiated at any one time, and Mrs. Wild helped with only a small number Delegations of alumnae kept ar·

riving throughout the day and taking their places in the candle-lighted room, relieving those who had been on the job for hours.

A recess was called at luncheon time when the actives went to their own dining room and the alumnre stayed at the Community house. A remarkable lun cheon was spread before us, remarkable not only because of the quantity and

variety of food in these limited days, but because of the distance much of the food had travelled for the affair. Ham had been sent before rationing from Ohio; Mr Stoolman had sent butter; Erminie procured cheese from Vermont; and Mr. Ross provided chocolate bars-a rarity indeed ! Several husbands also have stood in line at rationing boards. A festive appearance was given by wine and blue table cloths and napkins. Initiation continued after this pleasant interlude, lnd to our surprise the installation of the chapter was concluded by about four o·clock. This afforded time for many of us to walk about even in th e midst of a snow storm, and admire the spacious campus with its rolling hills, to feel a bit of nostalgia when we discovered the stately buildings housed some of Our pet subjects, and to locate the Pi Phi house overlooking a small

lake, already the possessor of a new sign in· sta lled almost as soon as the last girl was initiated.

The Community house looked like a different place when we reassembled for the banquet in the evening. Long tables were festooned with smilax through which were arranged wine and blue flower s. At each place were nut cups in fraternity colo rs and a menu and program with a hand painted carna tion on the cover, all of the more than 140 painted by Suzanne Hopson, Vermont B. The soft colors of the dinner dresses and the profusion of spring flowers around the room which had been se nt by fraternities on the ca mpu s added a festive touch. Conspicuous was a large bouquet se nt by Sigma Chi which was installing a chapter that same day.

Barbara Erickson, Vermont A, as toastmistress presented the guests at the head table and introduced the speakers whose toasts followed the parts of the arrow: Wings, Louise Cozenza, Vermont A; Point, Frances Ross, outgoing president of the new chapter, and Hope Demarc, incoming president; Shaft, Hazel Everett; Chain, Erminie Pollard; Elizabeth Scott, Pearl Burnham , Connecticut A alumn.,; Flight, Amy Onken; Path, Dorothy Wulp, Michigan B. A thrilling surprise had been prepared for the actives, known only to very few alumna!. It was presented by Dorothy Wulp speaking for Betty Dow, who had worked so tirelessly on all ar· rangements, but who had lost her voice and could not be heard beyond her next door neighboc. Mrs Wulp spoke of one most enthusiastic member of the Hartford group who had been a pioneer in the desire of a chapter at Storrs many years before and who had put into that hope as much purposefulness and hard work as she had into her many fraternity enter· prises over the years, ranging from the development of the Central Office, through ARROW editor; strong supporte r of the national officers -loyal and generous Pi Phi friend-Mabel Scott Brown , D .C. A ., Maryland A. Since she had not lived to see her dream of a nearby chapter fulfilled, her husband, Robson Brown, almost as good a Pi Phi as she, was eager that the chapter be given a memorial that would be at once useful and a reminder of a very outstanding member of the Fraternity. After some discussion by long distance with Miss Onken and with l oca l members he decided that he would give a mahngany chest to contain the initiation robes and the archives necessary in every chapter house. Since these could only be bought by Pi Phis themselves, the in going and out going presidents were presented with checks to cover these items, and the chest, with a silver plate bearing an

inscription was coiled in during the presentation. Since the purchase of this necessary equipment was causing the actives some concern, and since the gift was such a surprise it was received with joyous acclaim not unmixed with tears of deep gratitude and appreciation. After a toast to the Founders and the Loving Cup song, the guests adjourned to the Pi Phi house where they could meet in person Bob Brown and be· stow on him their charming thanks. A few other husbands who also came out to be guests of Prof. Scott - were likewise greeted) and cnjoyed immensely seeing Bob the center of such delightful attention. Just recently a few mem o waited on him in Hartford, presenting him with a scroB containing a verse of the "Pi Ph i Sweetheart" and a Pi Phi watch charm

The /irst chapter meeting was held in the chapter house Sunday morning before church , and will be an inspiration to the chapter (or a long time to come because of Miss Onken's remarkable and stirring talk on what the frater· nity may bring to them and what they may con· tribute to its future life It followed a breakfast that the actives were providing but which caused them a few anxious moments, not this time) due to rationing. It seems that some very special sweet rolls that they had ordered were not around, come time for breakfast. After rousing the baker at an early hour for Sunday it was discovered that the order had been de· livered to a fraternity by mistake. A sprint across campus to the f ratemity followed only to discover that the men had enjoyed the buns the night before , thinking they were a gift to them When the alumna: appeared for break· fast there was ample food, but no oDe knows just how it was uranged !

The festivities were concluded Sunday after·

noon with a tea at the Chapter house to which were invited faculty, townspeople, anJ students. They testified to the strength of the ch ap ter 10· cally as did our own alumna: show by their presence the strength of the national fraternity. Perhaps the most outstanding impression gained by the actives and ce rtainly reemphasized to the alumn"" was the large number of chapters represented at almost any Pi Phi gathering, cer· talnly testified to the ease with which members draw together in any community. This fact) plus the Sp'irit of coope ration and willingness to help manifested by officers and just plain alum· ore, proved unquestionably the value of membership in a national organization.

Actives who attended the banquet included one delegate from Massachu setts A and one from Middleton or Vermont A; others sent by chapters of the province-all represented except Nova &otia A; Mary L . Tarr, Maine A; Charlotte Nelms, Massa chusetts A; Louise Conzenza and Dorothy Laux, Vermont A; Mary Lib Met· calf, Vermont B; and Dorothy Landon, Virginia A (now in Springfield, Mass .)

Would You Be An Aircraft Engineer?

Aircraft engineering---one of the most challenging of war-time opportunities-is open this year to young women graduating from college. To any girl chosen, it offers a chance for free post-graduate training plUI salary, followed by immediate placement in a responsible, well -p aid , interesting job.

One of the companies pioneering in the training of young women for engineering work was Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation of Bethpage, Long Island. Last year it cooperated with the Un ited States Office of Education and Columbia University in organizing at Columbia. in New York City, a nine weeks' course that successfully started about young women on careers in the aircraft industry.

Other groups followed, and a new one will start at Columbia June 21. Girls accepted for it will receive a weekly salary of while in training at Columbia (and at aviation school for a week) and will then be employed in the Grumman plant where the world ·famed Avenger fighter airplanes are built.

Shop work for three months permits each girl to rotate through a number of departments, thus learning at first hand how airplanes are put together and what the practi ca l problems of aircraft fabrication are. She is excused three afternoons a week to attend classes instructed by Columbia faculty members and Grumman engineers.

Backed by such experience, the girl is then ready to assume a position of responsibility in

whatever bran ch of engineering she has found most congenial. With another inc rr-ase in salary and the shift from shop tc desk or drafting board, she begins to feel the thrill that comes with being in the thick of a hard-working, forward-looking industry.

Not the least of a prospective war worker 's considerations are the living and working con· ditions she will encounter. Aircraft companies like Grumman make a point of seeing that their trainees are comfortably housed and conveniently located, with the result that some of the Grumman girls. for instance, live in small furnished bungalows, others in club-like residences . A housing bureau plans ahead for their accommodation , consideration being given to shopping and transportation facilities.

The Long Island companies know that nearby New York, with its theatres, concerts and shopping facilities, is the main recreational attraction for employees from out of town. How· ever. the Island offers the diversions of salt water bathing, golf, riding, etc., and the companies themselves encourage music, athletics, dances and parties.

Applicants for Grumman engineering aide training are accepted on the basis of a letter of application, better-than·average scholastic record, personal interview. A college degree is necessary. and a major in the sciences, in mathematics or business administration preferred. Those interested should write to Wesley J. Hennessy, Training Division, Personnel Department. Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation, Bethpage, Long Island, New York .

Only Woman at Food Conference

By EsTHER FERNALLO. New York r

JOSEPHINE SCHAIN, Minnesota A, one of our most prominent Pi Phis, has long been a prominent figure in national socia l work and internation al councils. She is one of the country's most outstanding champions of international goodwill and peace.

She has added another achievement to the list this year. Secretary of State, Cordell Hull, ap· pointed her a member of the U. S. delegation to The United Nations Confere nce in Food and Agriculture held at Hot Springs, Va.

Following her graduation from the University of Minnesota, she came to New York as a soci al worker and was for a number of years attached to the H enry Street Settlement. During the period following the First World War , she gave up settlement work fo r the study of inter· national affa irs. In 192:5, she became assoc iated with Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt in organizing the Committee on the Cause and Cure of War, which represented eleven of the outstanding women's organizations of the country. Mrs. Catt, as you know, is anothe r of our Pi Phi s of whom we may all well be proud. Other organizations with which she became affiliated were the Gen· eral Foundation of Women's Clubs, the Young Women's Christian Association, the National League of Women Voters , the Nation al Federation of Business and Professio nal Women's Clubs (with which our own Louise Franklin Bache is also affiliated), and the Am er ican Association of University Women. In 1935 she s ucceeded Mrs . Catt as C hairman of the Com· mittee on the Cause and Cure of War and continued in that capacity until 1941. While connected with this Committee, s he was one of three women sent to the London Naval Conference, and in 1931 was one of the two delegates to represent this Committee at a meeting in Geneva of representatives of women's organi-

zations throughout the world which organized the Peace and Disarmament Committee of the Women's In ternational Organizations with headquarters in Switzerland.

Miss Schain joined the Girl Scouts as national director in 1930 and remained in. this capacity until the fall of 1935. She represented the United States at an international gathering attended by representatives of the thirty nations forming the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.

Miss Schain has been primarily interested in questions related to the foreign policy of the United States, and because of this interest has visited Europe nine times. In 1926 she attended the sessions of the League of Nations, traveled through Cent ral Europe, the Balkans, and Tur· key, and spent some time in Ankara where a new government was being formed. She again visited Europe in 1928, and spent six months in Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Turkey, Iraq, Persia, and Russia . By auto she traveled with a friend through Iraq and Persia on a 5,OOO·mile trip visiting most of the important places in these two countries. In 1935, as Chairman of the Peace Committee of the International Alli ance of Women , s he attended the triennial confer· ence of the Alliance at Istanbul, and spent seve ral months visiting cou ntries of the Near East and Europe. The next year she spe nt the summer in Europe.

In 1936, she attended the Inter·American Conference at Buenos Aires, Bying down the west coast and returni ng by the Atlantic, and visiting a number of the Central and South American Countries en route.

In 1940 Miss Schain was Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Wom en's Centen· nial Congress held in New York.

ARRIVED the last week of Jun e in Salisbury, Connecticut, to attend the Inst itute of World Affairs not knowing quite what to expect and wondering what I would gain from my five weeks stay. There were thirty stude nts from all parts of the world : fourteen girls and sixteen boys Imagine my delight when I di scovered that my next door neighbor in the dormitory was Betty Day from Winnipeg, Canada and a member of Manitoba A. It wasn't long before we were exchanging songs. There were three other fraternity girls at the In stitute: Carolyn Graham, X n, from Sophie Newcomb; Margaret LeMesurier, K K r, from McGill University, Canada; and A gnes T aylo r, A 0 n , from the Unive rsity of Montana. The five of us were soon having bull sessions over rushing techniques, etc. But that was only a sideline. I must tell you of th e other students . There were seven Canadians; and since they were from all parts of Canada , it was interesting to see their different points of view . Two of these were French Canadian s. There were two students from Thailand who were able to lend their aid in examining the problems of the Far East, and were helped by two American students who had lived most of their lives in China. Two Europeans, familiar with waf scenes and the general turmoil in Europe for the last ten years, were our most intere sting members: c ulture, and animal husbandry-t hus fitting a boy from Sweden, a girl from the Netherlands them for a useful life.

It was this working together that brought us to know each other so quickly; and the fun we had at dances and parties and sings showed the grand people with whom we were living. When Ca· nadian Dominion Day, the Fourth of July, Argentine Independen ce Day, and French Bas · tille Day had all passed with the si nging of na· tional anthems, nationalisms and petty prejudices were seen to be quickly submerged into what we chose to call a "world sp irit"-a feel· ing of brotherhood and internationalism and real concern for the probl ems of the world.

Three days a week we had seminars and the other thr« we had commisjons-smaller groups set up to study specific problems. Seminars were led by Dr Martin Klotsche, professor from Mil· waukee State Teacher's College. And during the time we wefe there, we were honored with lectures by such persons as Ben Wood of Columbia and CAl.; William Elliott of Harvard and WPB; Maurice Hindus , author and correspondent; Sir Norman Angell, author and lecturer; Ernest Riggs of Anatolia College, Greece; Miss Li Ling Ai and Mrs Chok na Ranong, both of

China; Henry Sloan Coffin, Union Theological Seminary; Hamilton Holt of Rollin s; Colston Warne of Amherst and Consumer's Union; and many others. It was gratifying to see there was no evidence of a des ire on the part of the students to hold to blueprinted plans for a post · war world. In stead we tried to recognize and a.nalyze certain moral principles which are prerequisites to any machinery that might be set up. We left the In stitute with an earnest desire to " let the people know," as Sir Norman has put it, and to work with vigor for collective security. international economic cooperation, and greater tolerance and understanding. Over 500 men and women of former Institutes are helping to build this new world order by work· ing for better und e rstanding of nations and races, and for a permanent foundation for peace. It was with regret and hope that we left Salis · bury ; regret at leaving our many friends; and hope that we might have a part in bringing about the right kind of post·war world I ann glad that two Pi Phis had a part in the In stitute and can hope for a part in bringing peace to the world.

Federation Message

In it Mrs . Brubaker says, "When the nation was SO unexpectedly plunged into war, editorial writers and news commentators found a new field for thought, which was that Americans are weak, spoiled, soft.

If th e hundreds of women in industry, the thousands planting and ca ring for their Victory Gardens, the hun· dreds working in the harvest, or on farms, are weak, what are the requirements for strength?

Women have done great things in a great way. We have builded for ourselves a specia l kind of courage, made up of unity, charity, loyalty, forbearance, and fortitude. Victory will come because of the united efforts of the light. ing men and the Ameri ca ns at home ."

Dorothy Rogers Williams (Mrs. Whiting Williams), Illinois E , director of the Nurses' Aide Corps of the Cleveland Chapter of the American Red Cross, is visiting the campuses of Ohio coIJeges and universities this winter, bringing to students and faculty members information about the United States Cadet Nurse Corps and the opportunities offered to college women by the profession of nursing.

DEAR FRIENDS EVERYWHERE:

It's HOT From no mountain top do I write you, my Dear Friends Everywhere, no vista stretches before me, no heights lift my thoughts and send them Bying over land and ocean to you. Instead a hot dusty bedraggled friend has decided to try to forget the heat and the dust by talking to you for a little while. She is perched up in her compartment enroute from Calcutta to Lucknow . Yet she almost wonders if she has left her office, for here is typewriter, mimeograph, file case, office chair, pile of books and wire file baskets surrounding her-but the top basket is marked "outgoing." And that's what is happening. For the last remnants of the National office of the Y.W.CA. of India, Burma and Ceylon is at this moment enroute to its new home in Lucknow. Changes have come since my last epistJe went to you before Christmas. How many, many changes-it's almost unbelievable that one can live through SO much in a few brief months,

of the Bangalore Y W.CA. celebrating its fiftieth birthday on the day that Singapore fell. The fall of Singapore had a unique significance for this part of the world, more far reaching than many are willing to face. Then I was in Ceylon for a month's visit when the evacuees were pouring in from Malaya and Singapore.

Anne Guthrie

I am sure many of you have felt with me the tragedy of Manila. You know without my telling you the heartache that has been mother 's and mine, with the blotting out, at least for a time, of those "Emerald Isles" we had learned to love so much. The cable that arrived December 16 was my last link with them. Since then I have not dared to let myself think. I've pulled down the shutte r, blotted out thoughts; for I can do nothing for all those who are so precious to me, nothing but pray "wi thout ceasing" that they may have the strength and Courage they need, and that their faith may be equal to whatever the days bring to them. Sometimes when I am off guard, I find myself trying to imagine what life must be like-what my life would be today, had I not sailed out of Manila Bay, past the now famous Corregidor . The tales I could tell you. But undoubtedly you Sailed away, as I thought then, from safety into have heard or read similar ones. What stories uncertainty. there will be to relate when this catastrophe

However, not alone the Philippines has is finally over. I'd hate to be the judge for the gripped my heart, from Hongkong to Mandalay, best short story. Fiction will have a hard time [rom Shanghai to Java and Bali, people and to compete with fact! places I have known and loved have faced However, right now I can't decide what facts tragedy and destruction since last I wrote to you. to pass on to you. I think I'll go back to myself It was one of the strange experiences of my and why I'm here on this East India Railroad life to be the sp<aker for the "Golden Juhilee" at P M. on May 14.

Briefly Ihe slory is Ihis. For eight years the Y .W .C A. of India has said at Quadrennial conferences, "Calcutta isn't India. It 's not like any other place in India. National headquarters should move, should find a place where it will be more related to India itself than it can be in the second c ity of the British Empire, in the co mmercial and industrial centre and the shipping port of India ." But we were settled and it was hard to pull up roots and even if we did , no one was ce rtain where was the best place to replant them.

However, Qur last Quadrennial con fefen ce voted that we must move, so we began discussing it and in January at the annual meeting of the National Committee it was decided to go to Lu cknow in the United Provinces of North India, not as central as Nagpur would have been, but a more agreeable place to live and a centre where w e could find the calibre of women we would need to create a new National Committee to ca rry on our far-Bung work . Lucknow is an historical city with much of charm in its setting, while the Isabella Thoburn College for women located there has drawn splendid women to its fa culty from many parts of India and students from a wide surrounding area. The decision made, the unexpected happened . Burma became an uncertainty, Calcutta an unknown quantity. People and business houses began to evacuate and many assumed we too were "running away" from danger-the last thing we had intended doing.

A house found which can combine office and living quarters, the office has gradually moved up. The first tin trunk of old records went back with ou[ Vice President, Rani Lady Maharaj Singh, when she, delighted we were coming to her city, returned to her home in Lucknow the day after the decision was made in January. Gradually, rather inconspicuously , we planned to make the change when suddenly the military stepped into the picture, requisitioned the Calcutta Y.W.CA . building at 134 Corporation Street and gave us ten days in whidl to depart. Those ten days are now over. The military police go in and out of our door, sleep in our Aat, occupy my office, and I and the mimeograph and the typewriter and the last files are due to arrive in Lucknow tomorrow morning.

However, I arrive-but not to stay. For to come to Lucknow the middle of May is to walk into the fiery furnace. When mother, who had moved to Luc know in March while I was in Ceylon, left for the hills last week the thermometer had forgotten how to go below 112 degrees So I shall enter a deserted house, drop

most of my twenty-nine pieces of baggage, and go on to "Doon View," our northern summer school, where my co-workers Miss Lawrence and Miss Williams have already re-established our National Office for the hot months in the hill station of Mussoorie, six thousand feet above the blazing heat of the plains below.

O ctober 10th

The folder marked " Burma" I have just emptied and put on the bottom shelf of my file case . I wonder when I can take it out and put it once again into my active files . There was a catch in my throat as I did this. Where is MaSein Tin , our Y.W.CA . secretary? Where are our Burma members? What lies ahead for that country which has been through so much since last December?

Everywhere I go I meet evacuees from Burma, people with tales of all kinds, yet all so al ike in their tragedy of loss of home and property and at times family and friends as well. It's a sad tale- the tale of the fall of Burma. I wonder how much you have heard of the trek, a trek over mountains , across rivers and streams and through forests . Sometimes a journey by ship, or by plane, or boat part of the way for some of the evacuees, but always with strain and fear and an eternal remembering of all that was left behind.

To work a lifetime that one may have a home of one's own, then to walk out of it, leaving on the table Bowers one has just cut in the garden. To gather treasures, lovely things of Burma and China, to go out and leave them without even locking the door To have ten minutes in whi ch to decide what is most essential to make up the sixty-six pounds one may carry away of the things which it has taken years to accumulate. To have in one's mind the memory of cries of pain , sights of borror, moans of the dying, the calls of animals with no one to put them out of their misery , and pictures of burning towns on the road to Mandalay- Mandalay itself in Aames . To nurse in the hospital even though one has only a Y.W .C. A. first aid course to guide one and to tear up a few more of one's own saris each day that there may be bandages for wounds . To attempt to get gunny bags of records from Rangoon to Calcutta because in them are insurance policies and Provident Fund papers of one's fellow workers, to dec ide which twenty of the bags shall be destroyed because a hundred is all one can possibly manage to get transported over the uncertain trail. To be only two days ' tramp ahead of the invading army, to dare

not to search in the lorest lor the lood dropped by the planes for fear one will 10'" too much time-better without lood than be captured. To leave by the side of the road a comrade 01 the trek beca= he can go no lurther, to decide how much food one can leave with him and yet have strength enough to go on onesell. To see people fight lor tongas and seats in the truck, for food and for water-animal instincts to the fore crowding out all <I", To know of the heroism and service of those who were "the good Samaritans·' at Evacuee Camps, or in hospitals. All these and many more pictures make up the story of the evacuation of Burma , as it has come to me through various people I have met in India . For all who cou ld, Indians and Anglo Indians, came ba ck to the latheeland, which many of them had never seen before, and with them many Europeans who had lived and worked in Burma and come to think of it as home.

Some lell by the wayside. Some arrived only to give up after the struggle was over, some to die in hospitals Irom the effect 01 the exposure or disease. Yet thousands from Burma did find safety and a chance to begin lile anew in India , while those caught in Malaya, turning south to· ward Singapore, were trapped with nowhere to go. Or perhaps women and ch ildren are here safe in India with no knowledge as to wh ether husband or son who was left behind in Singapore, is today alive or dead.

On the East coast of India it was Burma and Malay with whom I suffered; on the West coast strange to say,-Poland. For a few days ago in Karachi I visited the Camp 01 the Polish women and children evacuated from Russia enroute to Afri ca to start life anew in colonies in Kenya and Rhodesia. By arrangements made by the Polish council they come by the hundreds to India , linger until a ship is available and then again go on, hoping this will be the last lap of their long trek to salety. Such strange colonies they will he-women and children, with no men folk to help Yet equal to the task in strength and faith, these peasant women seemed, as I watched them: in one place kneeling to wash their clothes, and in another kneeling in their makeshift canvas chapel with prayer books and rosary to pray .

One detail of this evacuee camp will interest you. No one in Karachi knew Polish, and no one among the Evacuees knew English . British army officers in charge of the camp were at a loss to know what to do, until the U. S. army loaned them three Ameri can soldiers of Polish parentage. So now these fine young fellows , Americans sent to India to help Britain win the

war, are assisting Polish women and children to get to Alrica A good example of international co·operation, don't you think so?

And now I want to see if I can do the impossible-give to you a kind of kaleidoscopic picture of what has been happening in India in the months since I arrived.

The present episode actually goes back to the beginning of the war when India, without the consultation of the country, was declared at war with the Axis. The Viceroy was within his rights in making the declaration but the psychological effect 01 not being consulted was not good. As a result India got off to a bad start in relation to the whole war situat ion.

Gandhi initiated his selective Satyagraha movement as a protest against the refusal to establish a National Government and a group of carefully chosen Congress leaders courted arrest usually by shouting slogans against Government and in favour of a Nationalist Ind ia. The oumarrested was not large but included many of the political leaders of the country, both men and women.

However, many men jOined the army, for in a country of 400 millions with unemployment a chronic state of affairs, recruitment is not difficult and each month brought and still brings the new recruits to fill in or swell the ranks. Then came that momentous day when Roosevelt and Churchill met and the Atlantic Charter came into being. It was a day of hope for India-a great pronouncement that we were all fighting together to bring freedom to all peoples irrespective of race and colour. And then India was told it did not apply to her, that the Indian problem was a domestic, not an international one, and again the baromete r dropped.

The long li st of tragic world events followed. The "Prince of Wales " and the " Repulse" were sunk, Hongkong fell, Pearl Harbour was bombed, the Philippines were captured-IndoChina, Siam, Malaya, Singapore, Java, Burma -the enemy was at Our door. Calcutta emptied itself of a third of its population. Rumour had it that an aeroplane ca rrier was en route up the Bay of Bengal. Ships were going down all too fa st and too near for com fort. The port of Calcutta was closed for a time. We in Calcutta went to bed at night with our most precious belongings close at hand Coconada and Co· lombo were bombed, Madras emptied itself 01 business and Government and was an almost dead city over night. Little places like British Cochin were terrified by the arrival of thousands of Australian troops, who came ashore at unexpected ports because it was too late to get to Singapore and there were no orders where to

go next. Everyone realised how inadequate our defences were, as we heard the tales of goon. Life seemed to be hanging by an uncertain thread. &hools in Calcutta were evacuated inland, the military took over schoo l buildings and large houses , including the Y.W.C.A.though not the hostel fortunately. Cost of living went up. Poor people were evacuated from areas needed by the military without much to do and no place to go.

The Burma road was lost to China. Hemmed in, her only supply l ine cut, everything must now be Hown across by a more difficult route. Consequently the cost of living kept on sky rocket· ing. on the basis of a prewar index figure of 100, our National Office in Chengtu wrote that they had reached the appalling figure of 2701.

The Generalissmo and Madame Chiang Kai Shek came to (aiJ on us. China and Indi a, for centuries near neighbours, now began to speak over the back wall. From Calcutta calls on Chunking were easier than to Ollr office in Lucknow. That is if you had the money for a ticket and could get a preferential seat on the plane-which usually you couldn't.

In th e meantime the atmosphere in the country had deteriorated. Too many people listened to German and Japanese propaganda over the radio ; too ma.ny were inclined to believe what was being said. Government had cause for concern.

Politically India to·day falls into various groups. Congress has been the party of Gandhi and Nehru with Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, a Mohammedan , as President. Through the years since it was organized it has slowly aroused the people to more and more of national co ncern. While Gandhi has been its spiritual leader, si nce the war it has been much divided because not all have been in sympat hy with the nonviolent creed, to which he has dung tenaciously, in spite of pressure on all sides. Although Congress has in its membership every shade of Indian opinion and both H indus and Mohammedans, it has been dominated by the Hindus and in gene ral by the Brahmans among the Hindus . Also it has receiv ed much support from the rich ]ndian industrialists, so has not had as much concern for the labouring class in the industrial areas, as for the people of the villages. Because of this industrial support, there was opposit ion on the part of Congress to a "scorched earth" policy being carried out by Government should Japan invade India

Under the leadership of Mr. M A. Jinnah , a strong organization of the Mohammedan s known as the Muslim uague has developed

especially in those parts of British India where the Mu slim s, as they prefer to be called, are in the minority. As a solution of the difficulties between Hindu s and Muslims , the League advocates Paki sta n, a plan evolved about ten yea rs ago and officially adopted by the League in 1940. There are several theories about the origin of the term which comes from the Urdu meaning "the land of the pure." (pak- pure; stanland.) It is a plan to partition the country on the lin es of the partition of Irelan d. Mr. Jinnah has never defined Paki sta n very clearly, but he argues that it is impossib le for Hindus and Mu slims to live in unity. since they are separate nations with entirely different customs and problems. The opponents of Pakistan deny this and Congress refuses to accept or even consider the idea . However, it has caught the imagination of the followers of Islam and a strong party has developed, even though there are many Muslims who do not belong to the League Or approve of Paki stan.

Opposing this Muslim group is a distinctly Hindu group known as the Hindu Mahasabha which is more or less created on the platform that if anything is to be given to the Musalmans because they are Muslims, they must stand for their same rights as Hindus. If there is to be a Paki stan there must be a H industan Then there are the Sikhs , the Christians. and the Depressed Classes, whose leader is Dr. B. R Ambedkar, a graduate of Columbia University, and a few more minority gtoups; plus the domiciled Europeans and AnglO-Indians who approve of Government so long as Railw ay, Telegraph , and Postal jobs come their way, and who take little part in politics.

Due to confusion of thought and action another nonpolitical group came together und« the leadership of Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru, made up of prominent men, but men who are without a following. It is known as the non-party or Sapru group. They have met a number of times and made suggestions and issued pronouncements but since they are individuals and have not political status they have accomplished little, though the public listens to what they have to say with much interest, because of the calib re of the men.

With the hope of creating more good will in the country and to try to bridge the ever widening gulf between Government and the people, the Vi ceroy's Council was enlarged by the addition of several more Indian members, and a National Defence Council of an advisory nature was established. The men added were able enough as individuals but since they did

not [(present any constituency this gesture of control being put into Indian hands did not cause much more than a ripple of curiosity as to those who were chosen, especially since the portfolios of Finance. Communications, and Defence, remained in British hands.

Next came Sir Stafford Cripps with the proposal of the British Government. All India was excited and full of hope and at one stage of the negotiations , thought that before another twenty-four hours elapsed, it would be a settled fact, and India would be on her way to a united front and all -out war effort.

Then negotiations broke down , Sir Stafford departed, and India was no further along the road, while the morale in the cou ntry was steadily growing worse , owing to a feeling of hopelessness . There were charges and counter charges as to why the Cripps missio n had failed, and an increasing lack of faith everywhere. Government had little faith in the people, especially Congress; the people had les s and less faith in Britain's willingness to part with power. While everywhere there was inc reasing determination among the political leade rs that India would not wait until after the war for her freedom, that if she must protect herself against invasion it must be for a free India that she would fight, not to maintain the status quo . There even grew a feeling among some disillusioned people, that it didn't matter who was the taskmaster if there must be one, and perhaps a change would at least be no worse. Alas, little do they know the kind of task-master Japan can be!

At the same time another situation was developing. For some years there has been a Communist party in India working among the industrial workers and students mainly. It is said that some of the most brilliant among the students, both Hindu and Muslim, are members of the party. However, up to the time that Russia and Britain became allies it was an illegal party and had to work underground while many of its leaders were in jail. But when Russia joined the Allies , there was considerable pressure to secure the recognition of the party and after a time it was made legal and most of the leaders were released.

The party then took a positive stand for complete co-operation with Government to secure an all out war effort against fascism . However, in spite of this , Government has not been entirely enthusiastic about the party and there is still a certain amount of oppression of Communist members. While it is not a large group, a special strength of the Communist party is

that, more effectively than othe r groups, it has bridged the gap between H ind us and M uslims and as members of the party is teaching them to co- operate

Next Gandhi's statements startled the world. "Quit In dia," " Leave In dia to God." The former being picked up as a slogan was used both for and against Congress. One of Gandh i's followers gathered together his recent writings in a book under this title. I read it before it was banned by Government and found that much of what Gandhi had said in regard to negotiating with the Japanese and in regard to the Briti sh leaving Ind ia, as so often happens, sounds rather different in its original co ntext. But much of it fill ed Government with a definite conviction that Congress was quite willing to sell out India to the Jap anese and could not be trusted.

In Augu st the Workin g Committee of Cong ress met in Bombay. I was in Calcutta at the time. The Committee passed its resolutions, decided to support Gandhi's views and if Britain was not willing to grant a N atio nal Government here and now they would initi ate a non -v iolent, non -coope rative movement. First, however, Gandhi was to offer to meet the Vi ce roy and talk over the situation with him . If he were willing to have a National Go ve rnment formed, some Congress leaders suggested that Congress would be willing to step aside and turn over the forming of such a Government to the Muslim League with Mr . Jinnah as Premier.

Government however had its plans laid to prevent civil disobedience and was ready for action. Within less than twenty-four hour s after the sessions closed, the leaders of Congress all over the country were arrested, and are still being arrested, and all Congress offices and publications are banned Gandhi apparently did not expect to be arrested so soon, and had not sent to the Congress member s definite in st ruction s as to what to do if the leade rs were arrested. Consequently the country has been in a state of co nfusion ever since ranging from spontaneous outbursts of nationalist students and Congress members doing all they can to register their objections to the impri sonment of their leaders-to hooligans tearing up Government property for the sheer satisfaction of looting and destruction. There have been irresponsible youths going on strike for a holiday , mOre than anything else; while other serious minded youths and a surprising number of girls, wishing to do something for their country, have cou rted arrest to show their patrioti sm. They have reminded me of the Chinese students and

of the students I knew in South America in the days of the revolutions there In addition they say there is some evidence that the destruction nf railroads and telegraph has been carried out by .fifth columnists who probably filtered in among the Burma evacuees.

While there have been a good many killed in the riots which resulted in some places, the number is not large considering the extent of the movement. Lathi (a stout bamboo pole used by police) charges of the police have injured some when they have had to break up processions or illegal meetings; students in some cities have refused to go to their classes, though the Musl im students on the whole have not gone on st rike. Where there has been vandalism the courts have imposed collective fines on villages. however, Government has exempted Muslims from paying. The ban on the old fashioned whipping order was lifted and it has been found effective in deterring the students in some places. Some areas have been very quiet while in some places there has been much confusion and tuImoil, according to the leadership or lack of it.

When I was ready to return from Calcutta I cou1dn't get through as trains were not running and I had to fly to Allahabad then come the rest of the way by rail. Now communications are re·established The destruction has been mainly of Government property-rails, telegraphs, post offices, and post boxes, which has of course been a great inconvenience to all . Sometimes a telegram arrives the day after the letter telling of it being sent.

Government has the situation well in hand, but under the surface there is much unrest and considerable resentment. Government believes that Congress has instituted this disobedience and refuses to deal with the country until Con· gress calls off this civil disobedience. Friends of Congress say it has burst forth as a spontaneous expression of protest and feel that only a popular movement of the people, for the people, and by the people can unite India to withstand an invasion of Japan Not having held Malaya and Burma some question whether with· out a united India the situation will be any different should Japan attack Government replies , "Show us even the beginnings of that united front of Hindus and Muslims and we will trust you more." And the answer comes, "If given a National Government under the stress of a common danger India will achieve unity." But Government is convinced that with Japan at the door and with 6fth columnists undoubtedly in the co untry, it cannot under any ci rcumstances give control now, and reiterates

that after the war India shail have every chance to form a National Government as she desires. But India, however, grows more sce ptical , mare disillusioned, and in so me ways more indifferent to her fate

Mr. Shyama Prasad Mukerjee of the Mahasaba, Mr . Rajagopalachariar, a former Congress member who resigned 6rst from the Working Committee and later from the Congress because he wished to try to work out a compromise of some kind with the Mus lim League, the Metropolitan of the Church of England, and Mr. Arthur Moore the former editor of the Statesman, the paper most widely read by the Euro· pean grouf.' each is trying to work to bring about a so ution or some kind of compromise .

Mr . Rajagopalachariar has recently said he would be willing to go to England to explain his views and make his suggestions if he would be permitted to do so. There have been requests by various people to see Gandhi but no one is permitted to interview any of the people interned , and as long as the masses recognize Gandhi as their leader, little can appeal to them which does not have his stamp of approval on it.

The most notable point seems to be, that on the part of Indian nationals there has been more oneness of thought in regard to the impri so n. ment of the Congress leaders and Churchill 's speech shortly after, than is usual for India to achieve. About ninety newspapers suspended publication rather than accept control of the press, some have been banned by Government, others have again begun publication .

So here we are in this vast country lacking unity of purpose and also lacking faith in each other. Yet much of life goes on as usual, millions are only concerned that there may be enough annas for to.day·s rice, and usually there are not. (A friend recently returned from a visit to a village where she found only one man in the whole village who knew that there was a war going on .) Cost of living is going up , travel is difficult, and an air of uncertainty is everywhere. Recently Chittagong h as been bombed again, but now there are better defences, especially in Be ngal and Assam, and we have less fear and more assurances in regard to the Calcutta area than we had last May when I began this rambling epistle. Ameri can soldiers in considerable numbers are now to be seen as well as British . I still get a strange feeling of uncertainty when I say, is home r' and hear tbe name of familiar cities of the South or the East. I've found few from the West. When they have an afternoon off, American nurses are enjoying our Y W.CA. Club rooms

in the shopping district of Karachi where they can have a cup of tea , rest. or dean up btfore going to the cinema

So this is more or less the picture. India feeling she must be ptrmitted to work out her own destiny ; Government believing that it is a world destiny that is at stake and India must wait. In the meantime Indian soldiers are taking their share of the fighting on every front, and India is giving la cs of rupees to the war funds.

I sit on the sidelines and look on trying to get some idea of the forces at work in this great country of India, among the four hundred million people ; trying to understand the heart and mind of the various groups. Sometimes ] look on from the window in the home of an English friend who sees little hopt and has a minimum of faith in India's ability to govern herself; sometimes my window is in the home of an Indian friend. mildly or intensely nationalist, or quite indifferent and detached. Sometimes I gaze out through the eyes of a rabid young student wming to sacrifice a year or more of college if only his country may be free to take a place with the othe r countries of the world; sometimes it may be around the dinner tabl e with a group of choice spirits, India at h er best, honestly facing her limitations and her possibilities. Or it may be as it was recently, from the charm of the home of the Commander in Chief, where for a week Lady WaveU·s hos·

Memorial Fund

Periods of so rrow and bereavement come to us all. Flowers, notes of sympathy and words of comfo rt help ease the grief, but to every Pi Beta Phi a gift to the Settlement School in the name of our loved one , is not only a fitting tribute, but is also a living memorial which endures in the training and education of our mountain people

A Memorial Fund was sta rted last summer and Mrs. Prouty , the treasurer of the Settlement School Committee, ha s arranged two cards to be used for this purpo se. An engraved ca rd is to be sen t to the family of the ptrson for whom the tribute is given and a fine printed card sent to the donor, acknowledges the gift.

Gifts for the Memorial Fund may be sent to Mrs. Frank Prouty , 1760 locust Street, Denver, Colo.

pitality made me so welcome and General WaveU's calm, unruffled spirit gave one a sense of conJidence. Soon it will be from the spaciousness of the Viceroy·s House when I go to Delhi to be one of the speakers at a mass meeting of Women for Voluntary Service , and shall be the guest of Her Excellency

So I look on, wonder about it all , and try to understand the difficulties and the possibilities, for do not for a moment think there is any easy solution for an ancient country like Ind ia, where tradition and custom, wealth and poverty, power and servitude, are SO mixed and so deep set. India is a country with many beautiful threads, some are faded and worn, others crude and inharmonious. Yet I believe India will go on weaving her pattern. I may not linger long enough to see design, but one cannot be here, even for so few months as I have, without realizing she has her contribution to give the world. Gandhi with all his inconsistencies, whi ch are so exasptrating to deal with, still has hold of something the world nee ds. Many feel it cannot find a place in the world of this day, we are being forced to follow another method in order to be rid·of the terrible disease which has sp read over far too much of our world.

Our Christmas Message to Every Pi Phi

If you have contributed to this Scholarship Fund through an Active Chapt., or an Alumn .. Club, perhaps you could give a bit more! Many scholarships cons ist of four hundred dollars, you know_

If you are not affiliated with any group this year, won't you send your check to the Grand indicating clearly that it is for this purpose? Your gift in any amount means your personal support to a national and a fraternity project of much significance. Your may mean a Christmas memorial gift-send it in place: of buying that Christmas present you now no longer have occasion to select. How can you more tangibly help youth to help this aching world?

"A chain is as strong as its weakest link." Our fraternity is only ihe force for good its membership permits. How , as members, arc we each one measuring up?

The questionnaires sent to the Alumnr Clubs over the country have met with a vcry prompt reply. and the work done by Pi Phi members is indeed gratifying and outstanding. Clubs all note the fact that the results are often inaccurate as so many workers werc hesitant to spok of their services. Jest they sound boastful. No one knows the amount of bonds bouA:ht by individual members but in almost every case they report 100 per ccnt of its members are buying.

In only one C3JC did an Alumor Club voice any protest. That club was so widespread over a metropol i. tan area they felt such a questionnaire could not be answered adequately or truthfully so voiced an un· willingnC'ss to respond. They said, however. every is doing not only her bit but more than bit and I am inclined to believe this is true o( all clubs .

A few clubs report that they do not meet reAularly so it is n ot possible to send on the data desired. Some of the clubs in large cities say it is difficult to contact their members as so many of them Ire unable to attend medings due to gasoline rationing and also due to the fact that many of them are engaged in active war work, and the home care of young children.

I should like to call attentio n to the Alumna: letters published in the May ARROW. They ,litive a broad picture of the worle done by the individual clubs and I note that almost every one mentions some war work in. SUAAestions to clubs may be r eceived by reading letters and I recommend that each local war chairman familiarize with these suggestions (or her own club's

Letters were received from 70 clubs, and I wish to express to these clubs my sincere thanks (or their cooperation. This is a new venture for Pi Phi . The success of this venture depends upon each club and I do believe the rewards kept will be of great help and interest to us all. One feels the kinship of working for a COmmon cause and certainly Pi Phi is today 100 per cent for service in our country's, need. Statistics sou nd dull but they do help us Ae! a clear view of the project as we work in it.

It is with great pride we report that out of the 2430 paid members of the 70 Alumntr Clubs 21'6 arc actively working in some war aiding capacity

T11 e re were 1290 men listed as being actively engaged in war service: J take it this means sons, husbands, and brothers.

The work of the Gray Ladies deserves mention but due to the article in the ARROW I have not mentioned devotion Ilnd help.

There were recorded 23 members in the WAVES, 2 SPARS, 10 WAC's, 3 Marines, 46 Red Cross Executives, 2 members of Civil Air Patrol, 1 Army nurse. and 1 Navy nurse. 1 Lieutenant on Extended Leave, and 146 blood donors with others already signed UD for service. In some cases these blood donoes were repeaters again and again.

About $500 has been contributed in actual donations by the clubs as a group and in almost 100 per cmt donations have been made by individual memb.rs.

Due to necessary inaccuracies I have not notated members engaged in surgical dressings, sewing, nurses aides, and canteen work-neither have 1 noted United Servin.- Organizations This is due to the fact that many report everyone doing some worle but not specifying the aact type of service .

We have records of 3 evacuees cared for in private homes . We have records of pre sch.ool nurseries run

by Pi Phis to care for children of defense workers. Pi Phis livinJll: near Army or Navy Bases have contacted Pi Phi wives and are doing th eir share to help these girls feel companionsh ip and kinship.

Other occupations and items of interest are so very worth mentioning I shall li st a few.

1. Secretary British War

2. In structor Air Met:hanics at Lincoln, Nebraska Air Base,

3. Civilian Defense Hostesses at Railroad Station.

4. Girl Scout lead er doing active work in U.S.D.

5. Teacher of clothing construction supervised by State Board of Education in Missouri.

6. Member of professional li brary institute in Michigan as a wartime morale building project.

7. One member is attending school at U of Michigan taking war typography.

8. One member is directing missionary a:lucation in western Michigan.

9. One member is helpin,2 work of exte nding friendship to American Christia n Japanese in Relocation camp.

10 Some members in making quilts for British War Relief Society

11. The Denver alumnae furnished and decornted the Day Room for the WAC's at Lowry Field at a cost of $22' and furn ished all labor from the group_

12. Mrs. George Wallace has been made a "Dolla r a Year Woman," newly appointed Vice Chairman of Women's War Staff from the Jackson Alumnae Club at Jackson's Mississippi.

13. One member is a n instructor in the Air Corps at the University of Colorado.

14. One physical therapist, on extended leave from the Army to do special hospital work for Division of Crippled Chi ldren in Colorado.

15. One civilian chairman for recruiting of WACs in Colorado.

16. One from the Pittsburgh, Pa ., Alumn te Club had had 84 hours metalJu.cgical Engineering.

Also Pi Phis are working on ration boards, se lling bonds and stamps, acting as U.S.O hostesses, taking First Aid cOurses, knitting, contributing to library needs both in books. magazines and money, 'Working at sales for Bundles for Am erica. making rompers for Red Cross. entertaining cadets in their h omes; othe rs are working in nutrition courses and helping in canning projects.

Another has been giving extra hours in service in the Post Office so soldiers ca.n receive mail promptly.

Another dub is paying for milk daily and baby accessories for 35 babies and 5 expecta nt mothers under supervision of the City Health Department in Fort Smith, Ark.

Another memlx-r is d o ing sketching of service men at the Evanston U S O.

Again I should like to call attention to the fact that reaUy only a third of the dubs responded to the questionnaires but the results are overwhelmingly gratifying When we cOnsider this third., which is indeed only a fnetion of the great body of Pi Phi s we can prove that Pi Phi is standing eagerly by doing: her part to contribute not only in money. but service, given unstinta:lly and iUingly by each alumnr member Be assured, as I am, that "not only is each member doing her share but more than her shl-re." & usual Pi Phi is rtSpondin,JiC loyaH, to every call made upon her and the quotation: " By their fruits, ye shall mow them.. still renuins true.

She Likes to Sing tor Her Supper

By H£LYN HITCHCOCK.

"It 's really no hardship for me to sing I have a cold or laryngitis, " said Mrs Russell singer, pianist, banjoist, and former trouper, "sll:,ce I've learned the trick of singing over my larynx which is higher than my usual voice ."

She is living in Fort Wayne, Indiana. where hus· band is commanding officer of the station a.nd medical department at Baer Field After tnduded into the Army he persuaded Mrs. SPIVey and their two daughters, JoAnne, 7, and Susanne, 3. to move here from Indianapolis.

Mrs Spivey, who rOse to the limelight under her maiden name o( Dorothy Ryker, is no amateur in the theatrical world . For two years she and Ruth Mack (the other membC'r of their vaudeville team) toured this country with Keith circuit, harmoniz.ing, playinJ; double banjo and trumpet. lowing this they entered the radio 6eld, regdarly over NBC and Columbia chains in New York

Her musical training began at the age of 5, when she started piano lessons followed by dancing and Val , e. Even before receiving her degree from Jordan Con3C'cvatory she was a playing member of the Ly· ceum. It was there she mel Ruth Mack (her future partner,. who taught her to play the banjo.

Major 'ipivey is proud of his wife's acco":lPilshments. He willingly carries her gold.plated banJO, the ebony board o( which is set with mother. of pearl. whenever they are invited out for but requested to furnish thei.r own entertainment. .1 like to sing for my supper," she commented ami· ably.

Mrs. Spivey never regrets having given up her stage carCCr for, she says, "It's a hard life-split weeks and sleeper jumps." She admits, however, that she is in constant need of some musical outlet. Since comin,g to Fort Wayne she can be weekly in an ensemble over radio station WOWO. " 'n this topsy turvy world entertainment is a big factor," said Mrs Spivey, "and I feel I'm doing my part by sharinA what talent J have with the public."

Before leaving Indianapo lis, Mrs. Spivey broadcast over WFBM and WIRE, filled many private engagements (singing. playing banjo and guitar) made personal appearances at theatres and acts for club entertainments Her hookup with WOWO is no new field for her, but merely getting back into old shoes which fit her perfectly.

8J HELEN CHllSTY B

Two Pi Phi alumnr have been carrying a large part of the responsibility of the Ameri ca n Women's Senice in Omaha.

Jasmine Sherraden Metz (Nebraska B) has been chairman of the AWVS in Omaha and Dou,:;las County for the past three years, and directs all its many activities. Eight hundred women are and in addition to Haese are 1'0 women serving 10 the motor transport OOtpS, 100 junior members and II negro unit of seventy·five members. all myriad of A W.V .S. is Metz 's job, for she also has a fulltime job as chief clerk of one of Omaha 's dra.ft boards. In the latter capacity she often up In the wee small hours to send off men the army from hee Jistrid. It may also well be noted that she has two sons of her own in Uncle Sam's service Her .A W.V.s. work is possible, she says, of the marvelous cooperation of the entire group; but no doubt it is also because of her o.wn splendid executive ability and capacity f or organtzation.

Pearle Fitzgerald Sears (Nebraska B) has the high-sounding of Assista nt Chairman of the Savings Staff of Nebraska, for the A W V .S. Srnce September, 19 42, she has had charge of staffing the A W .V.S. bond sales booths which are located at Kresge's and Woolworth's stores, and at the Orpheum theater.

Mrs . Sears has two sons and a son·in-law in the service. She tells of opening hee home dllring the first World War as an informal center for helping school children with their knitting for so ldiers, since her own children w ere small at that time. Now her efforts have taken on their present wide scope with the same energy and since rity of purpose She was recently bv the Omaha lP'o,Jd-Ht,aJd in their daily feature, "We Salute Today," and was honored as Omaha's " Woman of th e Day" by radi O station KOIL.

D iamond Lil- Elizabeth W ilson

Kentucky A

Known affectionately as "Liz," "Diamond Lil," "Mom," and " Little Willie," by litecaJly of boys in the Armed Services who have enjoyed the hospitality and far-reaching of the Louisville Service Gub since its orgamzauon two years ago, Elizabeth Wilson. Kentucky is holding one of the important jobs in the war ettort.

As Coordinator of Recreation Activities o f the Louisville Service Club she is more than a hostess. She is everything fr oda the leader of the

who calls the intricate numbers whereby the First Class Private from Oklahoma is able to meet and dance with the cute little number from Richmond Drive, to the one who lends a hand in helping concoct the Christmas punch o r dye thousands of Easter eggs, Her work embraces such stemi ngly trivial services as buying, wrapping, and supervising the mailing of hundreds of gifts rangtng all the way from an Eisenburg clip to a quilted satin robe size 42 and an atrocious hand painted pillow toP. to the more serious one of giving First Aid to a soldier's mother whose joy at seeing her son brought on a serious heact attack.

The Gtv of Louisville Service Club is a civic enterprise which had its birth before there was a national U.S.D It has continued to keep its identity ser,arate and is operated almost entirely through civic uDds. It is a part of the War Fund. Occupying a three story building formerly owned by the Knights of Columbus, purchased by a non profit. corporation, it is operated by an operating committee headed by the Acting Mayor, Andrew Broaddus. Soon after its opening, Elizabeth was lent by the Division of Recreation of the City of Louisville where she was a specialist in Children's Dramatics , to take over the recreation activities. An important part of the early work was convincing the various women's clubs and other civic groups not only of the desirability of such a project but also the urgent need of their financial and moral support in seei.ng that the finest type of girl was attracted to it. Hundreds of wellplanned spe«hes were necessary to put the idea across. Here Elizabeth's dramatic training and her ready wit helped her "se ll " the club to Louisville. She 's the last person to admit that she did more than her share of the work of pl acing the Service Club in its enviable position, but the people of the community know better. She is really the " spirit" nf the club. Her abilitv was recognized by the many clubs who made flattering offers, n o tably the Miami .Beach Recreati on Pier.

Her satisfaction for the long tedious hours, the arduous work, the back-aching misery, and the strain of being cheerful no matter what happens, comes in the wealth of mail that would make a movie actress jealous These letters come from the boys who are doing their part to bring w back to the American way of life. A homesick lad in a hole of Bata.an thinks longingly of the easy chair at the ServICe Club' 3 lonesome boy patroling the desert hears again in the sy mphony he listened to so intently one Saturday afternoon in a past Apri.I. Another boy o n maneuvers wires her to select spnng flowers for his best girl-tulips and daffodils and la vender stock because he's sentimental about those blossoms, full well that she'll get them if she has to plant the seeds herself. Another wants a .white satin wedding dress so his wife can have her picture .taken with a veil instead of the blue dressmaker sutt she wore on her wedding day. Still another urges her to run down to Fourth and Broadway and tell the tall girl in the tweed coat that he can't get off to meet her! A mother wants her to trace her son who's been evacuated from North Africa with a head wound Still others ask only the Simple (?) impossible like a two weeks furlough or a change from present assignment. Even though Colonel Butler Bnscoc, Post Commander, said publicly that whatever says, "goes," there are of course some things out of her province!

Her job accordi.ng to one of the boys, IS that of "Keeper o'f the Morals, the Soldier's Joy. and the Smeller of the Front Hall! " Elizabeth feels that her health is her chief quaJi6cation for the position. as

"A Pi Phi Becomes a SPAR"

By IDA S. GRIFFITH, A.S.

I am being indoctrinated, inoculated, and in general learning to be a 8000 sailor and I love it. Dwing a war the U. S. Coast Guard becomes a part of the Navy, which makes us very proud, but prouder still am 1 to be a SPAR. We are a. new and important part of an organization f ounded in 1790 at the suggestion of Alexander Hamilton, then Secretary of the Treasury. Until 19n we were caUed Revenue Marines and the work WaJ unglamorous but "ital in a.idin.g the Trealury Department in the prot«tion of American rights and interests

As the Coast Guard we have carried on the worle and increased our activities so that in today ' s war

we are of utmost assistance as a unit within the Navy. Hunter College, the Bronx, N.Y., in February of this year became a training school for W AVES, SPARS, and Marines. In Navy slang we are in "Boot Camp" l earni ng to march, being instructed in the background, workings, and customs of the organization of which we are proud to be a part We must forget our civilian habits and take on new ones overnight, those of a service much older and wiser than we.

Our days are long and varied, up early, clean our room thoroughly and march to morning mess-breakfast to you landlubbers--then classes, drill, physical examinations, selection examinations and all the fundamentals necessary to make us better SPARS, take up our day. We march every place and black walking s hoes are our best friends . At the end of the day we are ready to tumble into our bunk for a good 8 hours of sleep which seems much too short when reveille is called at the crack of dawn " All Hands Hit The Deck" and off we march to another full day

From here we are sent to Specialized Schools and then comes the happy day when we actually make use of all the trainin,q we have had It is a little like being back in but the discipline i s much stricter than any o ur good advisors ever imposed.

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

The opening of school is always an exciting event and the opening of the Pi Beta Phi school this fall brought with it several interesting developments. In the lirst place it marked the transition of the basic program and the financial responsibility of both elementary and High Schools to Sevier County. It signified a growth of civic consciousness that the community could now assume, and pridefully, its rightful share in the training and education of its youth, It emphasized anew Ute sound principles of participation which have undergirded our Settlement School since its incept ion and it has served as a new milestone in our progress

Excerpts from a letter from Agnes Spring, "ad interim" Director, give some absorbing and vivid word pictures. "The first day of school the campus looked like a technicolor movie when the rays of the sunlight drifted through the clouds, down to the broad expanse of green in front of the school. The children stood in groups in gay colored dresses and sweaters, the corn in the garden contrasted with the long row of brilljant zinnias."

"The bells were not working the first day, so Ben got some storage batteries. I gave Mr. Husky the dinner bell so that he could call the classes to order. I'm mentioning this as the children didn't know what it meant and kept insisting that the bell had not rung-s o we've progressed from the days of the handbell to the electric buzzer."

the primary grades have as high as 1 pupils. It is quite wonderful that they have been able to get enoug h teachers to keep the grades going!"

Then she added a note which proves that although progress is maintained in the school, just outside is the same vast wilderness . "Four children going home from schoo l last week met an 'old b'ar and her cubs.' The children came way back to the Assembly grounds and waited until their father came to look for them. A bear also k,:led a pig On the road not far from Cha rlie Ogle's store. Someone shot him and he was found dead the next morning in the swimming pool in Little Pigeon. A man, who liv es within the Park borders, is out on $1,000 bond for killing a bear that killed his pigs and chickens and bit his cow's ear off. He has been ordered to move out of the Park A queer world! I thought the bears had been around here the first morning of school when I went to the Elementary Building. We had had rain the night before and the steps were from our own barefooted school youngsters!

"At Assembly for the Elementary &hool, 29 children received certificates for va cat ion reading . They belong to the 'Wings over America' Club, sponsored by the state school library system. The children receive stars and ranks for the number of books they read. The ce rtificates were made on our school mimeograph. "

"I just want to tell you some! In Assembly about 30 children were what the Gatlinburg School has done for our standing along the side of the room Some of country. To start with, it is the best thing that

ever came into our country . We diden't have eny school worth enything You no your self it was just one little roomed house and not very meny in school and now it is a large school and goOO bildens and anoth<r grand thing is the Arrow· craft Shop. Just think of the work that it gives the people and before the school started here we dident have enything to work at only farming. I made a very few chairs and sold them to the people around in the community at .:;oct each, made two chairs and took them to Gatlinburg for some one. They said to me why dont you take one of them up to the school and said you probly could se ll some there I do ne what they said I took one up there Mi ss Evelyn Bis hop was there at that time She said yes I wi ll take some chairs she said to make 6 and she would give me each for them and I made them and took them in She ordered 12 and from then on it was all 1 could make you no I thought I was flying getting ct in sted of just 50 ct I made chairs for severa l years and went to weaving I have ben weaving 14 years I m ake good at the weaving I am living very we ll I have plenty to eat and ware and have very good cabin to live in and have 2 good co ws and have got some money I dident have eny thing before the school came to Gatlinburg I will tell you a little about how I lived before the school started in Gatlinburg I lived hard we ate what we made on the farm all But QU: flower we cant make mu ch wheet here we had to buy our flower I would save all the flower sa cks and color them to make close for my children to ware to school I dident have enything to buy with and whil e that is the case there was lots of others in the same fix but I dont guess you could get them to tell you that and another thing they wasent very meny lived in Gatlinburg just a few Char· lie Ogle's sto re was just a little one room bild · ing and no w it is a te n room bilding if th at school had ent started up there it would have always ben ju st li ke it was I would like to no what cou ld have ben more help to our cou ntry than the school I ca nt say enough good things about it I had better .top."

This sincere and spontaneous outpouring of appreciation and gratitude for the help which the PI Beta Phi School has been and still is to Mary L. and her (amiJy in inspiration , educat'io n o f h<r childre n , and in helping her to economic independence, found its counterpart in those April days in the hearts of hundred s of moun· taJO people who wended th eir way to the court· house in to signify their willingness to use their resources to the limit in order that Pi Beta Phi might continue its services to the community through different channels .

That the transition of responsibility for the school program was successfully made, was due to the confidence of the community in the contJOUOus progress of Pi Beta Phi 's triple program of health, education and economJC independence through Arrowcraft over a Iong period of years and its faith in the chairma n of the Settl<rnent School Committee, Mrs. Ethel Copp and the 36,000 Pi Beta Phi women whom she represented. Many minor adjustments which must be made during the next year depend upon this same mutuaJ understanding and mutual integrity.

Three members of the Committee met with Mr Theron Hodges , Cou nty Superintendent of Schoo ls, lhe day befo re Comm itt ee co nvened . His first words were, "I have just signed an order lor one hundred and fifty tons of coal to be sent to the Pi Beta Phi School," and those cheerful words smilingly spoken, indicate the mood of the people who. as one man said, "voted to take 0"" the school and now we'll pay the bill." The sp lendid and immediate action on the part of the county, made Committee more eager than ever that Pi Beta Phi hand over to the cou nty our school buildings and equip ment in exceIlen t condition, that together we might keep the standard hi g h It was with g reat satisfaction th at before Co mmi ttee left Gatlinburg, a large part of th e re pair work to make ready the schools for t he fall sessions was completed . The integ· rity with which both parties of the contract mo ved to the cu lmination of the transfer bespeaks p le asa nt future relations

Gadngs and Gleanings at Gatlinburg

Our best dictionaries define "ga ze" as "to look upon with wonder and admiration" and one of the meanir,gs of "g l ean " is "to pick up or gather by degrees ." Each year Committee finds in Gatlinburg new associations with the community and sta ff which deepen their aflect ion for the mou ntain people and strength· en the ti es of service. For our work in Gatlinburg is not a one-sided affair! We receive far more than we give! We leave Gatlinburg insp ired by the morale of the people, imbued with the st ron ges t desire to give greater opportunities for development and humble with the thought that this mount ai n folk with its fine sense of values and its essential simplicity of living is hewin/: very close to The Life which we ofte n forget tn our more comp licated world , and they are a direct cha ll enge to us all.

As we gau we give our deepest admiration

to our devoted, tireless staff who unstintedly use their time and strength and who keep close to all community life helping in large measure to make the dreams, hopes and plans and program of 36,000 Pi Beta Phi women "come true" in Gatlinburg. To Margery with her fine contribution to the health of the commu nity, to Lena Hodgen, whose deJidous meals and noi se less household machinery make life in the cottages smooth and comfortable, to Carl whose farm and dairy speak fo r themselves, to Arlie whose job of maintenance man l eaves him with little time for himself, to Mr. Fleming whose constant thought for youth both in and outside of school hours make his service of great value, to Mr . Husky with his overcrowded elementary school, to all the school staff, to Miss Georgie, whose unfailing knowledge of former mountain ways presents new stories to eager Committee members, to Gene with her hundred weavers and Ethel Snow whose leadersh ip many times ha s yielded dividends for Pi Beta Phi and to all other members of our staff, assista nts in the various departments and the new teachers this year, whom we hope to know better, to each and all our warmest appreciation. And then the gleanings. Here are a few!

The shoemaker in Gatlinburg is a resourceful soul. With some fine cow hi de he has been making belts and he has also invented a new kind of sandal which requires no ration points. His comment is "The harder I w()rk, the behinder I get."

A touri st child said to her mother " Now I kn()W why they cal l those bushes ";ith long, glossy leaves, rhodode nd ro n. It's because th ey grow by the side of the road."

"How do you raise money to pay your preacher?" I asked Mrs. Steve Whaley. "Do you have teas, suppers, bridge parties and rummage sales?" "0, no," was Mrs. Whaley's answer, "We have suppers and teas and rummage sa les for the Parent Teacher Association, but for our church we SACRIFICE."

Several boys were ()O the playground one h()t summer afternoon. A member of Committee asked Mr . Fleming if there were generally more boys there at that time of the day. "0, yes," he said, "Generally there are many more, but after all, it isn't the number of boys who are on the playground at a given time, it is the 'QUA UTY of the CONTACT' that cou nts ."

" Wh at is the quality of my contact with the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School is a question that every sorority sister should ask herself this comj ng year. Then, too, "Am I doing all I can to help?"

A Few Words for the Arrow

"I would like to say tha t the School h as meant everything to Gatlinburg. It has sent boys and girls out from high school into college who will make great men and women. It has furnished employment for countless numbers of men and women who otherwise would not have had the opportunity to earn all they have.

I consider the greatest asset that the school has been to Gatlinburg and vicinity is the wonderful training it has given to our boys and girls.

I feel that the people of Gatlinburg are wholeheartedly in favor of Our County taking over part of the load of the school which will give the Pi Phi s a chan ce to expand their program in music, art, and recrea tion which are things this Community needs very badly."

ANNE COLVER. Maryland A Air . Lin( o /n'l Wife, Farrar and Rinehart, 406 pp.

Anne Colver ' s book comprising a fa ctual, coupled with fictional, account of the intimate and daily life of Abraham Lincoln's wife is enlightening and stimulating reading. Like the wife of another great president, Andrew Jackson , Mary Todd Lincoln suffered more than her share of abuse and public malignment. Her ambition , innate and long-nourished, partially thwarted the lives of her husband and even her children But underneath her explosive exterior her heart was warm and understanding. Often, similar to Miss Mitchell's incomparable &arlett O ' Hara, Mary Lincoln lived the philosophy of putting off presenting difficulties "until tomorrow."

Under the author's smooth and sympathetic pen, the book's principal character becomes not a heroine, but a person any of us might know, replete with mistakes, good intentions , impatience, tenderness, and moments of happiness and disillusion.

Mary ' s oldest sister, Elizabeth Edwards once said, "Precious few persons are cut out to be happy and unless J miss my guess Mary's not one of them." Undoubtedly fate played an undeniable part in her life--and in the end she was a woman who had never entirely attained her goal,

She was attracted to tall, lanky, seriousminded Abraham Lincoln from the outset- she loved him throughout their stormy marital career. But always between them was a barrier-a gulf that remained unsurmountable.

It was she who urged him to run for Congress and later for the Senate against Stephen A. Douglas. It was she who encouraged him to accept the presidential nomination. During her sojourn in the White House, she was accused of being a spy, and her mode of dress was ridiculed in curren t periodicals. Her philanthropic activities in nursing the wounded and her vital interest in the problem of negro education were overlooked. Being a southerner from Lexington, Kentucky, she was termed a spy. She lost three brothers in the Civil War, She had f ew friends-even her own sisters did not understand her.

The book is peopled with the great and near

great of the turbulent, stormy "war between the states era ," It presen ts a glowing , graphic , though sympathy -provoking account of a woman who meant well, but whose own personality and jumbled emotions preclud e d her reaching life 's fruition .

ROSEMARY DRACHMAN TAYLOR, Arizona A, Chicken Every Sunday, Whittlesey Hou se, 307 pp, Chicken Every Sunday is a witty, well-contrived book that is sure-fire escapist reading . Its author proves her aptitude as a humorist and an excellent reader of human nature. Its condensation in the Reader's Digest ; its se lection as the Literary Guild book of May; and its purchase for movie production proves its undeniable success . With delightful zest Mrs Taylor paints the

diverse characters that streamed in and out of her boarding hou se in Tucson . She mirthfully manages to extract every possible ounce of natural flavor and zest fro;}" each "paying guest."

It is said that the inimitable O Henry garnored mu ch of hi s material browsing in and around boarding hou ses-a nd certainly the wealth of human interest tha t positively exudes from Mrs . Drachman's co nvivial domicile proves the great short story writer's theory.

"Mother had boarders long before she had us children In fa ct she sneaked her first ones into the house when Father wasn't looking soon after she wa s marri e d," writes the author , There was always something interesting and diverting happening around the house and with genuine motherly feeling Mother attempted to solve her boarders' many problems with kindness and justice to all. Secretly Father Drachman didn't object to the in c onvenien ce of sleepinA on a co uch with his feet dangling OVfC the edge-to accommodate the guests. What he wanted most was for Mother to be happy and so she wasattending to her varied congregation.

"Having been born right after the Civil War and brought up on a war ·ruined southern plantation, she had a terror of not having something laid by. Wherever there was a possibility of making money, she felt she had to seize it . "

Father Drachman' s propensity for making money rivaled that of his wife's . Sometimes his sc hemes worked out and sometimes they did not. But nonetheless, there was always a happygo-lucky atmosphere in the household and a goo d time was had by all.

When the children arrived , the boarders still kept coming Later , a dormitory was added on the side-lot to make room for youthful masculine boarders. There was never a dull moment for interested participants-and so it goes with readers of the book.

Throughout, the character of Mother Drachman dominates . It is she who soothes injured feelings; it is she who is always ready and willing to offer excuses for human frailties. In truth she was able to arise to meet an,! occasion and Mrs. Taylor makes the most 0 every opportunity to present her mother's point of view to the best and most entertaining advantage.

The origin and development of Chic/lin Every SlInday makes interesting and diverting copy. It began as a short, twenty page account of Mother Drachman coming out to Arizona from Virginia, getting married and taking in a duo of boarders without telling Father . Prodded by her husband, who is also a writer, Mrs. Taylor dispatched the manuscript to a publisher

who promptly re p lied he'd like to see a welldeveloped outline and "two or three sa mple chapters: ' During an extended trip to Tucs on (the Taylors were then living in Canada) the book was enlarged- relatives were asked to sup· ply additional hil arious information After the manuscript was se nt to New Yo rk , Mother Drachman gOOd -naturedl y scgges ted part of rhe lIlateflal should be deleted. Relu ctantly Mrs. Taylor 'Jlue-penClled her ca rbon The publishers rejoined, "What are you doing? We thought we had a chicken stuffed. Now you want to take out the stuffing " Finally Mother Drachman wired , "We all say put stuffing back in the chicken ."

Chicken Every Stmday had flown over its final hurdle. Undoubtedly it is a book for every member of the family-and one that will provide endless reading enjoyment.

AGNE S WRIGHT SPRING, Wyoming A, Seve nt y

Year!, a Pan oramic Hifl Or] o f the Wy oming Sl ork Growers AJJociat;on. Publi shed by the Association, 1942, 273 pp,

In this informative and interesting book Agnes Wright Spring again has proved her mettle as an able c hronicler and compiler of facts and figures relating to the great state of Wyoming. She accurately records the history of the Stock Growers' Association pictorially and pleasantly . The endless amount of rese arch that was involved in the process is evidenced throughout.

In her preface, Mrs . Spring not.... .;. "Our present offering is merely a souvenir booklet filled with miscellaneous facts that may help to take the reader back a long the trails followed by the intrepid individua1ists who have struggled so royany to preserve the rights and privileges that their predecessors, the pioneer cattlemen, enjoyed."

How grateful the Wyoming Cattle Growers' Association must be for Mrs. Spring ' s boundless energy! Step by step she recounts events, startling In their impact on the industry'S growth that pertained to bringing cattle into the western area, ultimately leading to the formation of an organization of livestock owners in Wyoming that was destined to become the most influential and powerful organization of its kind.

Accounts of the introduction of the Texas Longhorn, over the famous Chisholm Trail , are graphically described . Names of prominent figgures in the Association 's evolution are interspersed. Boom and bleak years are outlinedIndian troubles and the always interesting account of brands and branding are included aloog with the various acts passed to improve cattle conditions. The author concludes by de-

scribing the effect or World War II on the industry and the many Dew and challenging problems that must be raced and overcome_

Mrs _Spring concludes, "Most or the stalwarts have gone over the great divide. A precious few . of them still linger to give warm and honest handshake, the personal touch or those manly days or old _ It is our hope that we may be able to keep their spirit with us always; for in the strength or these old catt lemen with that of the

Cadet Nurses

Through the new U_ S. Cadet Nurse Corps, a free professional education with pay is now offered for the first time to qualified college women and high schoo l graduates.

The Cadet Nurse Corps, the medium througb which f fee training is now available, is probably the most dramatic development in nursing since the outbreak of the war. It represents offi· cia l recognition by the United States Government of the important role of the student nurse in tne winning of the war . The minimum quota of 65,000 new students this year represents a 32 per cent increase over the number admitted last year. The Corps was created by Act of Congress and is being administered by the U. S. Public Health Service as an emergeney measure for the purpose of training moce nurses , quickly, to meet acute military and civilian needs. It is the only one of the many services open to women which combines immediate war service with preparation for a challenging life work. A member of the Corps , although she is a student, assumes responsibilities almost immediately and releases graduate nurses for direct war work .

Tuition, maintenance, and uniforms are provided free. In addition, cash stipends for each ca det nurse begin at $D a month, advanCing to $20 and increasing to at least $30 prior to graduation.

The street uniform or the Cadet Nurse Corps is one of the smartest yet designed for war service organizations. It is a grey, single-breasted suit, with regimental red epaulets and a silver maltese cross insignia. The hat is patterned after the British Army beret made famous by General Montgomery. Rain coat, top coat, and grey and white striped cotton suit for summer follow out the same color scheme and stylin,.

To college women two types 0 nurse 's training are available . In the first the basic course takes two to two and a half years to complete. All accredited schools of nursing re<Juire for

other pioneers was the roree that builded and that will save Ameri ca."

Mrs. Spring, charter member of Wyoming A, was ARROW editor for seven years and National Historian for three. She is the author or the Pi Beta Phi History and is a prolific writer of juvenile stories, feature articles. and fi ction. Among her other activities she is editor of the woman·s page of the Wyomillg Sto(kmall Farmer.

admission at least the comp letion of high schoo l with a good scholastic record, and preferen ce is given to applicants who have had one or two years or co Hege work. Any qualified young woman interested in this basic co urse can obtain it now through enrollment in the U. S. Cadet Nurse Corps . She must, of course, secure admission into one of the many schools of nursing that participate in the Cadet Corps plan and preferably into one that offers a special program to college women. She must also promise to engage in essential nursing, either civilian or military, for the duration of the war .

The other possibility is a combination of academic study and professional training in a school of nursing connected with a college or university. Because of the increasing importance of the work done by nurses, and the seriousness of the responsibilities which they assume now and will assume even more after the war, the profession needs acutely young women who com· bine a college background with preparation in nursing . The course offered in these collegiate schools covers a four or five year period and leads to the degree of Ba chelor of Nursing Those who hold this degree are in great demand as teachers , directors of nursing in large hospitals, public health nurses, and for otber positions or responsibility.

Although the Cadet Nurse Corps provides for only the final two and one-half years of training, many private scholarships are available to help the young woman who needs financial aid in order to take the full collegiate course defray expenses of her two years of pre-nursing education. Anyone interested in such a schol· .uship can get information about it from the director of the school in which she is interested. Further information about entering nursing and about the U. S Cadet Nurse Corps ca n be secured by writing to Student Nurses , Box 88, New York .
