VOLUME 6)

NUMBER 2

Lolla Weir Resign>

III health has forced the reSIgnation of Lotta John son Weir, Illinoi s Z, as alumn", club editor of the ARROW, and the Editor of the ARROW finds it hard to express strongly enough her personal as well as official regret over the loss of her services. She has been the kind of a staff member that an editor dreams of finding, ever competent and ever reliable. For lifteen years Lotta has faithfully edited the letters from alumnre clubs, sometimes close to two hundred of them, and how trying a task it was the Editor once realized when Lotta was away on a trip, and the letters came to the Editor instead. They came, in every possible form and on every kind of paper, typed and hand· written, long ones and short ones, well-written ones, and hasty, poorly written ones, and it took days to get them in shape for the printer. That was Lotta' s work for all those years, and always the Jetters reached the Editor on time, and in fine form, for many of them had been typed or re.typed. It has always been a joy to know for the whole period of the present editorship that her part of the work would be done perfectly. Thank you, Lotta, and to you go all good wishes from Pi Phi s everywhere for perfect re covery and happy days.

A n o th e r L 055

Nita Day Carman, editor of our Exchanges and College Notes ha s resigned too-in her case because she was making an extended tour of Europe. Her work has perhaps not been as generally known as Mrs . Weir's, because her department has seldom been used as a unit of late years, since war-time restriction, paper shortages, etc. forced cutting the size of the magazine. Her contributions, always well-chosen from the magazines of the other fraternities, have been used as filler material, and have added much to the interest of the issues-a nd they were always forth coming when the Editor wanted them. She will be missed--especially because of her sense of humor which made life gay!

N ew S taff M e mb ers

Appointment as alumn:::e club editor has been accepted by Virginia Sherman Kozak, of Syracuse, New York, who will be remembered at French Lick as the delegate from her club, and as one of the most faithful workers on the Convention Daily. The new Exchange Editor brings back a well known name to the Staff- Mercedes Baker Jorgulesco, of Tarrytown, New York, formerly editor of From Pi Phi Pens- her work in that department was always full of Jife and interest. Her husband, Jonel Jorgulesco by the way, is Art Editor of Red Bo ok Magazine. A new editor of the News from Little Pigeon also joins the staff-changes in the personnel of the Settlement School Committee have brought as editor of that section Harriet Goodsell Rauch, Iowa Beta, in place of Olivia Smith Moore, Missouri Alpha To her we are indebted for the fine picture of the new Health Center at the School-it appears on the cover of this issue .

S om e Plans

The December issue is always crowded with the accumulation of material which has come in since last March. since the September issue carries strictly business matters. This time the leans rather heavily towards the active girls, with honor girls, and with the stories of the two new chapters. The chapter letters in this issue seem more interesti ng than usual, full of the enthusiasm and the fresh interest in national affairs which Convention should always bring in its train-they are well worth reading The turn of the alumnre will come in the March issue, deadline January 10-it will be devoted largely to their interests, with an interesting artide by Marianne Reid Wild , mu ch news of the alumn:::e projects, and such personal material as Pi Phis are 16)

good enough to send in On hand are some interesting stories of Pi Phis who are doing things, but more are needed. If you know of Pi Phis who are in inte resti ng work. preferably of national interest, and also if you know Pi Phis who may be elected to office in the forth co ming elections, or whose husbands may be coming into offi ce , please se nd brief articles about them , with pictures i f possible. Especia ll y interest in g would it be to have someth in g about members who are rou nd ing out fifty yea rs of service to t hei r own ch apters-we have many like t h at who h ave se r ved on H ouse Co rporations or on AdviSOry Boards for many a year. Will you help ?

Sympathy to Delta Gamma

Pi Beta Phi extends to Del t. Gamma its deepest sympathy for t h e loss of its distinguished Editor, Alta Gwinn Saunders, who was killed in the tragic plane cras h at Mt. Carme l, Pennsy l va ni a last Jun e. while on her way to the D e lt a Gamma Convention at Swampscott. Under Mrs. Saunders editorship the A1Jchora was al ways interesti ng, a lw ays att ractive- hers is a r ea l loss not only to her own fraternity , but to the Editor 's Conference of National Panhelleni c, whi ch sh e had se rved with di stin ction as chairman , and in whi ch she always took a prominent p art. T o the Editor of the A RROW Mrs. Sau nd ers' death is a personal loss- she was a good friend.

It was one of the great gatherings of Pi Beta Phi , one to be cherished always.

Live Up to Our Ideals

Exrerpll from all addrm by

DR. G. HERBERT SMITH

FRATERNITIES and sororities need only to live: up to their ideals to deter fraternity c ritici sm, Dr. George H erbert Smith, president of Willamette University and Grand President of B 0 n, told members of Pi B eta Phi and their guests at the Panhell enic Banqu et. The ideals of every chapter are lo fty and beautiful, he said, and we should make oursel yes worthy of those ideals.

Dr. Smith said that co lleges and fr aternities

but as a promoter of undemocratic spirit," he said. Mr . Smith defended the fraternity, saying that the fraternity is the closest thing to family life. We have a right to select our friends accordi ng to our own standa rd s of intelligence and mutual assistance to certain objectives, .he maintained, and a democratic government cannot stop this.

In behalf of the college, Dr. Smith said that it is a definite mistake for the fraternity to remain a loof from the co llege Afte r all we exist on campuses only by the invitation of the administration and we stay there only as l ong as the administ rati on wants us. H e emphasized that we must be conside red an esse nti a l part of the college; otherwise we are nothing.

The co ll ege fraternity is the best possible medium for student government. A fraternity can bring high ideals and leadership to every campus. If co ll eges cou ld rea lize this, it would help to alleviate the misunderstanding between colleges and fraternities.

"Soro riti es," he said, "do better in many ways than men's organizations." H e cited examp les of their providing better chapter houses than the men, their having better house management, and their p ro viding greater philanthropic projects. H e paid spec ial tribute to the Pi Phi Settlement School, and said that while men's oranizations so often feel that only brotherhood is necessary, sororities provide for and think about others less fortunate than themselves.

"T he fraternity system is certainly not without have been livin g together for more than DO fault," Dr. Smith said. H e quoted Dr Tressider, years and not always quite harmoniou sly. ]n late president of Stanford University, who said: the beginning, they were looked upon suspi- "My objection to women's fraternities is not ciously as "secret Greeks" and were considered what they do to those within membership but as a possible threat to democracy. Persons were what they do to those outside their membership. warned of the possible overthrowing of the I don't feel that way about the men , but I do young democratic nation by these "secret so - object to what they do to those within membercieties." ship."

"As time went on, we have learned that the Dr. Smith cited the men's poorer scholarship secrets of the fraternity are no more serious and the "Hell Week" for prospective members. than a grip, a password, and some Greek letters H e blamed the scholarship in part on the unthat express the high ideals on which the or· dependability of the expectan cy from high ganization has been developed. Colleges no school grades. He said that often men who made longer fear and critic ize fraterniti e s on the basis high grades in high sc hool and were pledged on of secrecy . this basis, fail completely in college. As for "Our whole problem now is caused by the " Hell Week ," he maintained that anyone has lack of understanding on the part of the college a right to criticize those things that fraternity and the aloofness of the fraternity;' Dr. Smith men do to pledges as part of "initiation." emphasized. ''The college now thinks of the " I am greatly con cerned about the develop. fraternity not as a thrrat to American democracy men of social drinking in the chapter houses," 172

G . He rb n l Smith

Dr. Smith said, "because group drinking leads to excess drinking and ex cess drinking is bad." He said he feared that some fraternity may get caught by a photographer or reporter at some such party and cause mu ch bad publicity for the fraternity system. He further said if such a thing should happen, the college would certainly stand by and let the fraternity bear the whole brunt of such a scandal.

I n developing Dr. Tressider's point about what women do to those outside membership , he claimed that there are enough brains within the fraternity system to devise means to keep f rom hurting as many girls as we do now. He urged that we consider the freshmen and not the sorority so mu ch. He said that the sorority can always save face , but that we don 't give the freshman a chance because of such rush rules as registering and paying a fee before pledging. He also charged the sororities with carrying prospective pledges too · long . He cited the ex.mJ<!e of the which carried fifty girls up to the last dinner to assure filling twenty-live places.

" Women are guilty of over-public display, Dr. Smith said. "Sororities have entirely too much undue publi c ity about rush and we get a reputation of being clannish because of this, " he said. He pointed out the case of a sorority that published a l ist of the fraternities in which its pledges could date . "Thoughtfulness is the key by which we can solve these problems ," Dr. Smith said. He urged the Convention delegates to go ba ck to their respective campuses and take a stand on these matters. "Get rid of registration and payment . to·be·considered," he urged. "Try to remember the frehman's fee lings. The fraternity is wel l enough established to save its face; the fresh · man is not."

He asked the women's fraternities to confine their expressions of joy over new pledges to the chapter house in order not to -hurt other girls who didn't pledge He cited as a bad example of over.public display a university where the girls who have pledged are received on the front steps of the administration building by fraternity men , while those who haven't pledged

To h e lp fo r bette r feeling between fraternities a n d all persons on campus , he suggested that chapters in st ru ct their members to make fri e nds outs id e the h ouse and to plan affa ir s wh ere outsiders ca n (orne into t h e hou se.

The introduction of 1 6 delegates of the Convention by Miss Guthrie as repre se ntat ive women from the Philippines , China, and Indi a effectively se t the stage for her tour of the United Nations at Lak e Success Th e followin g girls were dressed In the native costu me s of these three countries; Pat Williams , Arkan sas A; Emily Ann Till er, Arkansas A ; Ma ry Anne H yman, Indi ana r; Betty Bec k, Ind iana r; Jean Claire Dunbar , Indian a B ; Mary Jane Brittain, Indi ana E ; Nancy Kel sey, Indi ana t.; Betty Ann Lewi s, Indiana r ; Nancy Kin g, Washington A; Grace Dilts, New York A ; Janet Adams, Colorado A; Eileen Co lor ado A; Pat Means, Wisconsin A; Zelva Moeser, Washington B; Joy ce Carlson , Colorado B; Joan H e rm es, Wis consin B. Since Anne Guthrie has spe nt five years in each of these three countries, she came to know personally the distinguished women she brieRy intro · duced on the platform. One of the girls rep· resented the first woman to be elected to the Senate of the Philippines. Another delegate came dressed as the woman in charge of the Bureau of Publi c Welfare in the Philippines. The only repr esentative of China was the wife of Dr. Sun- Y at-sen, a most beloved person in China. Several ce lebrities came to visit from India There were present the wife of the Governor of Bombay, the Mini ste r of Health of the Indian Cabinet, the National Preside nt of the Indian Y.W.C.A , and the most distinguished of all Indian women , the sister of a greater leader, Mrs. Pandit. Mr s. Pandit is the on ly woman to head a delegation to the United Nations, and she a lso holds the title of Ambassador to Ru ssia. By skillfully depicting the UN as an effective world organization, and by describing the various sections and entrances to the Security Coun c il a nd Economi c and Social Council, Mi ss Guthrie was able to impress upon her audience the worthiness of the very existence of the UN. A comparison was made between the UN and Panhellenic, by whi ch she pointed out that we expect wonders from an organization three years old, yet do we demand as much from a three

yea r old child? Panhellenic tries to establish h a rmony among groups so very similar in aim s a nd organization, while the UN tries to do the sa m e things with countries made of incongruous types of government and peoples " The marvel of it is th at it exists, it is here. "

An interesti ng in c ident was told by Miss Guthrie about the Chinese alphabet. It seems that the Chin ese were hunting for a character to form the word "peace." The Chinese finally put two characters together which meant "food" a nd " mouth." With the use of interesting incidents to illu strate her stories, Miss Guthrie brought us hum a n interest anecdotes mingled with her own personality to make the United Nations more vivid to us all.

" Only co nRi cts make the front page," said Miss Guthrie , "a nd if we all return to our home after Convention safe and sou nd we will not make the front page." By this statement we reo alized that harmony and success in matters which co nce rn u s alJ at the UN, are less likely to b e publicized and noticed by the world.

In co nclu sion, there were stated fiv e qualifi.

ElIa/yn Pr oli ly Lewis, Jan e Pr ouly Per ella and Caroline Prolily Shreve-All Col orado Alp ha cations which Mi ss Guthrie felt were needed by a ll to prepare and work for peace:

1. Knowledg e-We are down on what we are not up on. Observance of the world about

us is necessary with scholarship.

2. Understanding- This comes as we gain capacity to put ourselves in others' places. We must find our path and pursue it.

3. Courage-Not only physi ca l courage is needed but intellectual courage as well. We must learn to think for ourselves and have the courage of Ollr convictions.

4 . Patience and Steadfastness - We must have forbearan ce in all things. The Orient taught Miss Guthrie to be less impatient, to remember that things take time, especially important things.

5. Love of must extend our brotherly lo ve to all people and nations of the world. The only real progress is progress in Charity, all others are second to it . Speaking to all Pi Phis present, Mi ss Guthrie said that we are all sisters together and found it easy to love one another. Love of one's enemy is more diffi cult. The opposite of love is not hate but fear. We are never afraid of that which we understand. Urging more faith in the world and Jess fear, Miss Guthrie closed her most inspiring and informative talk by quoting from a Chinese proverb.

"Love conquers hate or fear as water conquers fire . But most of us practi ce love as though with one little cup of water we could put out a cart full of wood on fire."

As EARLY as the third century after the birth ing the history of mankind. of Christ one of the greatest Roman jurists, But tonight we particularly think of a philJulius in his famous digest of Corpus anthropic endeavor very close to our hearts.

Philanthropy is derived from two Greek Sin ce its modest inception at Gatlinburg, words: philo loving, and anthropos-man.

Through your efforts and devotion terms of monetary gifts, but may also be viewed to an inspirational idea, which has become a from the truly Christian standpoint of giving realization, you have learned from experience oneself in service for the benefit of others. "What is done for another is done for oneself."

Philanthropy has played a significant role in Concretely, if the standard of living in such a the development of America, where civilization section of thIS country is raised, does it not fol· has comparatively recently emerged from the low that the standard of living of the country as pioneering era.

In so doing your own in education and what it can accomplish. lives have become richer and more meaningful.

When John Harvard made his modest gift to You have known real gratification since, in the the Massachusetts Bay Colony, when Trinity of Henry David Thoreau , "Philanthropy Church in New York opened its vestry room to IS alm?st the only ,:irtue which is sufficiently Samuel Johnson and his handful of students, apprecIated by mankind."

July 2, 1948, was the fateful day for the arrival of the anticipated news from convention. Fifty.six nervous 05 had gathered for a picnic at a beach home on Puget Sound when a telegram was delivered from Mrs. Cooper. "Hurray! " said her teleg ram, "You will soon be Pi Phis."

And true to the words of Mrs. Cooper, the petitioning group was pledged the last two days of August. Mrs. E. M. Draper conducted pledging services for 114 actives and alumnre at the home of Rose Carbone. The new pledges gathered in the chapter room in the Student Union Building the evening of August 31 for the reading of the constitution.

History of the College of Puget Sound

THE College of Puget 'Sound was first in· co rporated as the Puget Sound University on March 17, 1888, upon the application of th e Puget Sound Conference of the Methodist Episcopa l Church.

Its academic organization was changed from that of a university to that of a college of liberal arts in 19 14. In 192 7, it became strictly a four year liberal arts co Hege It s work has receiv ed the highe st accred itation from the various ac· c reditin g organizations and it has been on t he approved li st of the Associa tion of Ameri can Universities since 1932.

The campus comprises 60 acres in the heart of the finest res idential district in Tacoma and co mmand s a view of majesti c Mount Rainier. There are ten buildings on the campus Work

on a field house , new music building and the president's home have been started. This summer a ski lodge at Mount Rainier was obtained for the exclusive use of the college students. College attendance has hit th e 2,000 mark. The co ll ege is the largest privately endowed in· s titution of higher learning in the Northwest . The are two national fraterniti es, K l: and l: N on the campus The oth er three men 's groups are m aking plans to go national in the future. Pi Beta Phi is the only nation a l wom en's group on the campus. There are three local sororities.

The College of Pug et Sound cam pus features the Gothic type of structure in all its buildings. It is the rambling castl e of the northwes t- "Its guardian is the mountain beside the s ilver sea ."

Tennessee GamlUa Installation

ON MAY n, 1948, the dream of sixteen girls and the members of the Knoxvillelittle Pigeon Alumnre Club became a reality when n cl» r at the University of Tennessee was installed as Tennessee r of Pi Beta Phi.

The dream began in the summer of 1947 when the alumnre clubs of Knoxville and little Pigeon laid plans whereby Pi Beta Phi's 93rd chapter would be chartered on the University of Tennessee campus. A very successful rushing season was conducted in competition with all the other national women's fraternities, and on October 6, pledging was held. Then began Ihe enthusiastic work of the new members of n r with thee special supervisor, Peg Ward , Tndiana E, and three other Pi Beta Phis on the campus, Julia Hildebrandt, D .C. A, Carroll Thompson , Tennessee A, and Charlotte Townsend Owen,

Arkansas A, tow a rd their goal of a chapter of Pi Beta Phi.

The culmination of this dream took place last May 14 and 15 in Knoxville, for on those days pledging and initiation of sixteen girls into Pi Beta Phi were held. After pledging on Friday, May 14, a buffet supper-cooky·shine was given by the Knoxville-little Pigeon Alumnre in the lovely home of Mrs. John Oliver in Holston H ills. Each new p ledge read an original tribute to Pi Beta Phi and sang a song with origina l lyric about Pi Beta Phi. Mrs. Frank E. Wil· liams , Epsilon Province President, read to the girls from the Pi Beta Phi Constitution during the e ve ning, and a di scussion was held . The DeIta Gamma chapter g,,'e a special luncheon at noo!, Friday in the Delta Gamma room for the official Pi Beta Phi visitors.

Saturday noon, May 15, the X n actives and alurnnre gave a luncheon for all out-oF-town Pi Beta Phi vi sitors in the X n room in the PanheIlenic Building .

That afternoon the sixteen charter members of n r were initiated and installed as cha rter members of Tennessee r of Pi Beta Phi. Mrs. Robert S. Wild , Grand Vi ce-p resident , was the installing officer, and she was assisted by Mrs. Frank E. Williams, Ep s ilon Province President , and Mrs. John M. Foster, Epsilon Provin ce Vice-president. Pi Phis from Chattanooga and Nashville were also on hand to witness the birth of the Fraternity's 93rd chapter. Mi ss Leslie Milligan , Te nn essee A, and Miss Betty Ruble, Tennessee B, were the representatives from their chapters.

Following init iation and in sta llation, a banquet was held in the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville. Miss Ruth Dyer of the Settlement School in Gatlinburg was toastmistress, and the theme of the program revo lved around the "Pi Beta Phi Symphony." The program included inspirational talks by Mrs . Wild, Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Foster, Mrs. H . H. Everett, Knoxvill e alumme, J ea n DeVault , Tennessee r, and Peg Ward ,

Ind iana E . Several lovely gifts to the chapter were opened and many telegrams and letters of congratu lation s were read. Gardenia corsages worn by all the Pi Phis at the banquet were gifts of Mrs. James E. Lindley , Zeta Province Vicepresident.

Joan Edington was awarded a specia l recognition pi" for being the "outstanding pledge," and Martha Park s was given the scholarship ring for the greatest improvement in grades during the year. The Oak Ridge Alumna: prese nt ed a gave l guard to Peg Ward for her year as president of the chapter. Th e program was concluded with the singing of the Loving Cup Song.

Sunday morning a model chapter meeting was held in the Pi Beta Phi ro om with Mrs. Wild presiding. The Pi Phis then attended the First Presbyterian Church in a group. In the afternoon a formal recept ion for the faculty, admini st ration , student body, and friends was held in the beautiful! A E fraternity hou se.

Thus , the ceremonies for the installation of Tennessee r were concluded , but the joy and work in building T e nn essee r into one of the strongest links in the chain of Pi Beta Phi chapters has just begun; and all of those connected with Tenn essee r look forward to a great future in Pi Beta Ph i.

HIsTOR IC University of Tennessee , founded in 1794, is a fitting background for the new chapter. The University is fully accredited, and its student body is drawn from all over the South, by its various colleges, Li be ral Arts , Engineering, Agri cu lture , and its Graduate School, a ll at Knoxville, and its Medical and Dental Schools, at Nashville. Co-operation between the University and the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School ha s lon g bee n close , with of l ate years a definite link in the University's support of the ummer Work Shop at the School, and the granting of c redits toward a degree for properly accred it ed work done at Gatlinburg. The character of its student body makes it a fittingly strong home for a chapter of Pi Beta Phi, and the new group there will have suppo rt from the entire Southern region.

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

Edlled b) HARRIET GOODSELL RA UC H , ' olva B

The New Heal t h Center

Our hr'it nur 'iC (or the Pi Beta Phi Settlement hool, Phyllis Higinbotham , Ontario A, went to Gatlinburg in 1920. There was great beauty in the Smokies; the brilliant· and variegated .. how of fall colors in October; icicles hanging from the trees transforming the mountains in winter; the procession of spring flowers and flowering trees beg inning with the first wood violets and wmd flowers in March through the dogwood season and the pink mountain laurel to the flaming azaleas of May ; the white rhododendron blooming until late in July; and the ever-changing white clouds hovering over the peaks of the foot· hills. But mid all of thi s beauty " Miss Phyllis" found great need for health and emergency medi ca l assistance. There were no doctors or nurses within a radius of many miles and health and sanitary standards were unknown. Nurse Phyllis had no clinic, no hospital, no office, but ca rried her clinic, hos · pital and office in her brown saddle·bag as she rode over the almost impassable roads on her horse, " Lady. " She served the people out of her saddle·bag for two years until the old Ogle Cottage was remodeled into a combination clinic, hospital and nurse's living quarters.

Our first Jennie Ni co l Memorial Hospital was dedi ca ted on May 8, 1922. "Miss Phyllis" in addition to answering her many calls, taught hygiene, taught a class of mid wives, examined the school children for nose, throat, eye or general health troubles and in her six years of service there built the Ogle Cottage into a model rural health center.

Since then the new highway has been built through Gat l inburg and the Great Smoky Na · tional Park has been completed. Our health program has outgrown the little Og le Cottage.

Our present nurse, Marjorie Chalmers, in her report of last year said, "The modern tendency for education and prevention in medicine is quite apparent in comparing the work of the past fifteen years.-Typhoid and diphtheria inoculations have not increased much, while vaccinations for small-pox, forbidden in some homes in 1933, have trebled in number. Serum for whooping cough is almost universal now Field visits have dropped nearly one·third but

office cal ls are up two and one·half times.In 1933 1,600 pupil inspections were made and last year there were 4,180. When we stop [Q consider there are nearly seyen hundred students in the district served by the H ealt h Center and nearly as many younger chi ldren, we realize the importance of education.- Regu. lar Friday afternoon well baby cJinic'i were held throughout the year with specia l ones added from time to time.-Community health is a commu ni ty problem. It is bigger than any one individual or anyone organization. It reo 9uires leadership but more than that it must have the approva l and support of the com· munity. Through the many years of service, the Fraternity has supplied the leaders and com· munity support has grown steadily. It shou ld be a source of pride and satisfaction to know we have the cooperation of individuals and civic organizations. Without it, we would be, to a ce rtain extent, interlopers. With it , we can go far in service to humanity ."

Thi s past June, nurse Marjorie Chalmers moved into our newly built and comp leted health cente r. Funds for this building came largely from the estate of Dr. W. F. Garsh· wiler of Indianapolis , lndiana ; Sl.000 from Wa s hington , D.C., A; and California Alpha's co ntribution . Dr. Garshwiler 's contribution was given in memory of his wife, Floren ce Province Garshwiler, who was an Indiana 8 and a loyal sup porter of all lndiana chapters as well as the rndianapo l is Alumnre Club. Washington, D .C., Alpha's co ntribution was given in memory of Mabel Scott Brown, a former D.C . A n <P . California Alpha's gift was part of the money whi c h the chapter had left in its funds when the chapte r was withdrawn [rom leland Stanford University berause of university action. On July 12, whi le the Settlement School Com· mittee and Miss Onken were in Gatlinburg, the new health center was appropriately dedicated to its broadened health service.

The building stands conveniently on the main highway near Arrowcraft Shop. It is built of hand-hewn , native , white-pine shingles. It has field·stone trim and a grey slate roof. The architecture corresponds to that of Arrowcraft 20S

and, in time. the shingles will take on the same lovely grey sheen as those of Arrowcraft. The entrance hall. office, and class-room are finished with pine walls. The first-aid room and clinic are finished in standard white. The windows of the three former rooms are hung with handwoven draperies, made by Arrowcraft weavers. The panels on the windows at either side of the front door were designed by Mary Elizabeth Sullivan of Eugene, Oregon, one of the staff of the summer work-shop. Mrs. Eleanor Simms of Gatlinburg gave the pen and lamp for the desk in the office. There was a new air-guide, a gift of Mrs. Elizabeth Peck , a former director of the sc hool. The many beautiful flowers which brightened all of the rooms for the dedication service came from the gardens of Mr. and Mrs . Elvin Trentham . Gatlinburg friends came to witnes:, tht: dedication and there were numbers of little folks there who had known " Miss Marjorie' · and the old health center well. They had their picture taken and had to be "weighed in" on the scales in the new clinic room.

The dedicatory service was very simple. Reverend Blanton gave the invocation. Ruth Barrett Smith, Chairman of the Settlement School Com· mittee, read the Love chapter from the Corinthians. Mrs. Armstrong, our Pi Beta Phi Musical Director, nine of her young high school girls who sang "Bless This House."

Miss Onken gave an interesting resume of the life of Dr. Jennie M. Nicol , one of the founders of the Fraternity , and one of the first American women to enter the practice of medic ine. The old Health Center had been dedicated to Jennie Nicol twenty-five years ago. Because

Ch a pt e r M ee tings

One of the dangerous tendencies in some fraternities at present is the slighting of ritualistic practices. particularly in the conduct of regular meetings. There are so many things going on in modern co li ege l ife that there just doesn't seem to be time to do everything and so the old, time·honored chapter meeting suffers.

The inBated size of chapters today has contributed to the difficulty to the extent that old chapter halls and meeting places will no longer accommodate the large number of members. "Close communion in the chapter hall" is a mockery and the time for thoughtful programs and discussions doesn't seem to be available.

of her life of service, the new building will be called 'The Jennie icol H ealth Center.'

Miss Ruth Dyer, our resident director at the Settlement School, gave a fitting tribute to the intere t and painstaking care of the men who had labored on the building.

Nurse Chalmers said, "All things considered, I should be at least three times as happy as any one else here tonight.

"First, because r am a citizen of Gatlinburg and, as such, have a civic pride in thi s beautiful building, not only because of its architectural worth, but because of its value to the life and safety of the com munity.

"In the second place, I am proud to be a member of the staff of the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School and to have so me small share in the generous and untiring work of the Pi Bet a Phi Fraternity.

"And, last of all, and greatest of all, in the personal pride and gratitude in SO attractive and efficient a ce nter . The old building ha s served its purpose well. Its doors have ever been open to the folk of the commun ity, whatever their need.

"Together, we have seen much joy and much sorrow. From you I have learned much of kindliness and patience, and the innate goodness of mankind. We have changed from the old to the new building but the spirit of service remains the same and shall so continue so long as the house, itself, shall stand ."

With the words , "we dedicate this building to the service of mankind," the new Jennie M . icol Health Center entered upon its official service in the community of Gatlinburg.

The present tendency, if it is not checked, is certain to change the aspect of the American college fraternity. The fraternity has been a unique institution, combining the features of free masonry, the o l d-fashioned literary society, the co-operative boarding house. and the social club. Through it all has been a fine idealism and a close cementing of abiding friendships which constant contract with ritualistic ceremonies engendered.

A "return to the altar" was never so stro ngly indicated_

Holt House News at Convention

WHA T joy it wa s to bring Holt House to conve ntion in the form of booklets and by motion pictures! Th e new Holt H ouse booklets were given as souvenirs to the officers, delegates , and visitors attending the Hi stori ca l and Holt Ho use program, giv in g to those who have not had t he opportunity to see th e House more knowledge of it s beauty a nd of it s important historical value to the Fraternity.

Th e cover of the book let is silv e r blue with a white sh aded picture of th e sta tely entrance framed with trees , fully le aved, with the branches meeting ac ross the top of th e picture. Protecting the cover is web patterned fly -tissue paper with the simple t it le, " Holt Ho u se at Monm out h , Illinoi s/' and the Frate rnity c res t below, printed in wine co lore d ink . Pi Phi s will find The St ory of H oll H Ollie written by O Uf nation al hi storia n, M arian Ke c k Simmons , mo st en li ghteni ng and interesting as it tells of the Holt fam ily; why th e name of Holt Hou se was given to th e memorial ; of two of our Found e rs, Ad a Bruen and Libbie Brook , who roomed in th e so uth eas t bedroom whi c h is th e room where Pi Beta Phi was founded; of the furnis hing of th e House; and of Holt Hou se as it was in 1867 and as it is today . The whole is a thrilling and delightful Pi Phi publication . Th e sixtee n full-paged pictures are beautifully fini shed and under each one is a ca ption telling the nam e of the room , or of some object of s p ec ial importance. The first picture shows the receptionist g reetin g an active and a pl edge, a nd the pictures whi ch follow show the girls visitin g the various rooms of th e Hou se.

A copy of H olt H ouse will be sent to each dub, chapter, and officer for official files, and to each new initiate. Pi Phi s desiring copies of thei r own may secure them from Central Office at fifty cen ts each.

Th e short motion picture film of Holt House shown at convention has had one hundred more feet added to it and now gives a complete picture of th e H ouse . The film will soo n be available to chapters and dubs fo r showing.

Du ri ng co nvention , Pi Phi s from Theta Province exp ressed the desire to present a specia l gift to H olt H ouse. Since a si lver tray has been needed for the silve r tea service which Epsilon Province gave to the House last sp rin g, the chairman suggested that this tray would be a useful gift and greatly appreciated_ Within two days, ei g hty -three dollars and twenty-6ve cents had been cont ributed. Th is genero us amount of mon ey was given to Mrs . Spoehrer, president of the St_ Louis Alum"'" Club, who had selected

the tea se rvice, to purchase the tray in the same design. The beautiful tray is now at Holt H ouse proudly supporting the s ilver tea se rvi ce. H ow g rate ful thi s committee and the future com mit· tees will alway s be to Th eta and Epsilon Provin ces for these fine g ifts!

A com mi ttee was se lected by Grand Counc il to s u bmit names of clubs to be represented on the new Holt H ouse Committee. Serving on thi s committee wer e : Ch ai rman , Caro l R. Sheppard, Miami , Florid a; Mrs . J a mes R. Ry an, Seattie, Wa s hington ; and Mrs Emerson R M ill e r, Pitt sburgh , Pe nn sylvani a. The alumn re clubs chosen to be rep rese nted are: Peo ri a, Ill inois; Lafayette, Indi ana; Mo nmouth , Illin ois; Iowa City, Iowa; and Ann Arbor , M iCh igan .

Und e r the new rul es governing the Hol t Hou se Commi ttee, the c h airma n and the treasurer sh a ll be appoin ted to office by Grand Council.

One can not ca rry on th e duties of this offi ce without acquiring a l asti ng love for the House so fill ed with Pi Phi history and trad itions . It is a g reat sa ti s fa ct ion, thou g h , to be succeeded by Nancy Swisher who has a lw ays been interested in H olt Ho use and proud of a ll th at it symbolizes. Mrs Swi sher has been president of the Iowa City Ad visory Committee, and of the Iowa City Alumn., Club and has served on the building co rporati o n board.

A new 6scal year has started for H olt H ouse with a newly appointed committee to watch over its welfare . Let us aU give this co mmittee Our generous support as they serve us in maintaining Holt House as the supreme memorial it is to the founding of Pi Beta Phi.

FROM PI PHI PENS

SHIRLEY SEIFERT, Th. Prolld lVay. J B Lippincotl CO., 3 16 pp.

In her mo st recent histori ca l novel. published last sp ring , Shirley Seifert has again reconst ru cted the little-known, youthful years of persons who, in maturity , shaped a portion of Ameri ca's destiny. Es se ntially this is the story of Varina How ell and the two years of her girlhood when her roman ce, whi c h culminated in marriage to Jefferson Davis , was developing. Mor e than that, however, and more lh an being a delightfully wa rm and spirited love sto!),. it is a delineation of two nat ionally prominent perso nalities .

As the novelist , herse lf , explains: "This is the portrait of a young lady. In later years she became, I think , one of the great women of our national chronicle- the brilliant wife of one who was in turn Congressman, Cabinet Member , and Senator in the ante -bellum circle of the National Capital, later st ill a lovely capa bl e and distinguished Fir st Lady of the Confederacy, and a heroic figure through long years of bitter defeat and loss With all who know her sto!)" I offer homage to those accomplishments; but my interest as a novelist is not SO much in the years of momentous eve nt s as in the earlier ones when those traits of chara cter were developing which made h e roism answer later to the demands of tim e and circumstan ce."

So much of what one reads, both fact and fiction, gives the impress ion that until the twentieth century American women contributed at best only to the physica l well-being of their families that it is refre shing to meet a young woman whose head did more than ca rry an intri cate co iffure, whose eyes did more than Rirt , and whose lip s did more than simper the soc ial amenities.

Even by today's standards Varina was a modern woman , a well-edu cated, thinking person whose opinions were her own and logi ca lly conceived. For this reason, as well as others, her story is interesting and meaningful to present day readers whose contemporary she might easily be.

MARY ALBERTA BACON , Poem! 0/ C%r, The Exposition Press, 61 pp.

A different portrait of the South emerges through th e poet!)' of Mary Bacon in thi s rece ntly published volume. I t is the world of the slave Negro written about in his dialect and expressed throush his point of view.

Of cou rse the Negroes Miss Ba con knew in her childhood Tennessee days were free , but the tasks by whi ch they earned their chi cken and biscuits? the standa rd s by which they l ived, and the rehglOn by wh ich they were guided were httle different from those of their slave grandparents .

the inspiration by whi ch she of t h e slave-holding days is compa rabvely unwatered by intervening years and the c hanging status of the Negro

Miss Bacon has achieved a nostalgically serene picture of the past in the neighborhood <;,f Jonesboro, Tennessee, and has effectively Incorporated a difficult dialect into pleasantly readable poetry.

AUTHOR INTEREST : Now a Hollywood , girl, it also supplies a satisfying insight to the California, resident Mary Alberta Bacon was character of Jefferson Davis and helps to ex- brought up in Tennessee where she was a

Shiloh School Got Sponsors

By K ENNETH FOREE

TALLISH, blond Pat Garrott was worried. Little red-haired, ri ch-red-brown -eyed Mary Jean Johnson was worried. Ditto half a dozen othe r lovelies of Pi Beta Phi.

They h ad revived the Dallas Pi Beta Phi Junior Club , but only ten or twelve attended the monthly meetings and it was eviden t that cokes, cook ies and c hi t c hat would never keep it alive.

Therefore. the), needed a project. And therein hangs a tale.

Each m ember looked and was disappointed. The war was over and there was no burning movement on ea c h corner.

But after a while President Pat Garrott noticed a n item. It was about an organization named Save the Children Federation and it sounded interesting e nough to ge t Pi Phi junior to a meeting. So she phoned the Texas representative, Mr s. Dorothy Porter -S mith , and asked her to come exp lain it.

An at tr active, fortyish brun ette responded. Ye s, her organization had projects - by th e multiluJe. It needed sponsors for European school s wh ere pupils g ot their lun ch from garbage cans . The Pi Phi s crin ged. But the SCF a lso had T exas schoo ls where children did without lu nches, there be ing no garbage cans, a nd where barefooted boys used a rock for a football. Did the club want so m eth ing like that f rom an organization whi ch beli e ved in "Build th e World of Tomorrow by Savin g the Child of Today "?

Y -Yes Th ey qu ickly wrote a chec k for $5 down on a $60 -a- yea r sponso rs hip and l eft it to the SCF to pick a project.

Th e n a tion al SCF wrote that th e Shiloh N eg ro School down in the Brazos d e lta in Burleson County had been assigned the club .

Well , said the Pi Phi s, OK.

Down to Caldwell drov e small , blond, cute P a t (Mrs . William) Fl eming and red -headed Mary J e an Johnson. They turn ed off onto a rutty dirt lane that pierced thickets and shiv ered as the Old s mobil e dragged at high cente rs. Would they eve r find it ? Negro women in men's shoes smil e d and waved. On e s uppli ed a gu id e with a runny nose for theah spo n su h s. Sh o they all knew it. Great day!

The big ca r h a lt ed at a I -room box school and a l a rge choco late wom an in a plain bl ue dress came out grinn in g , Elsie M oore, the

teacher. Inside were thirty -one pupils from big barefooted boys in o\cralls in back to tiny 6 -year . olds in front. But they were clean . The girls had rib bons tied to pigtails and every one wore one thing in common - a g reat smi l e.

What did they need' Grateful Elsie Moore painted things out-window sh ades in tattered st rin gs, blackboards on which th e bla ckin g h ad been erased ; the da rk , gloomy interior that needed its first coat of paint, a l i ttle money to feed the unfortunates who cou ldn't even bring a piece of old b read for l unch. Wh ere w as the playground equipment , asked M ary Jean, who teac h es at Walnut Hill School. There w asn't none; they just stood a round with th eir h ands in th ei r pockets at r ecess If t hey cou ld get a ball.

Th e gi rl s looked at th e school libraryt w enty dog-eared volumes out of the ark. Th ey look ed at the t ex tbook s, the cast-o ff s of Tex as. B e hin d a partition were severa l fruit jars with water from the sc hool well outside. Th e Pi Phis gagged at the wiggletai ls a nd wat e rbugs in th e jars . Two g irl s, sic k in hea rt but with fire in their ve in s drove back and e lect rified their club. First they coll ec ted old clothes and fired se ven or eight bags down to Shi loh. "They was wonderful," wrote back g ratef ul Elsie Moore . '" M ay God bless you all."

Mrs. Robert Stafford talked her father, D D Grindell, of Ginn & Company, out of forty a rithm etics and Mrs Jimmy Long made her husband with Pra ct ica l Drawing Company suppl y blackboard , footba ll , ba seball and bat at co s t.

M ean while , th e fat hers of the pupils as per ag reement r eb uilt the well box to keep out bugs, painted the inside of the school and built s wings.

Wh en lltanksg iv ing , 19 47, neared the club decided to furnish a good Thanksgiving dinner.

Wrote Elsie Moore: 'o ft was wonderful . .. every child was full. We had a short program a nd thank God for enabl in g you dear gi rls to g ive us Stich a n ice dinner. We ca nnot express in word . ."

For Ch ri stma s the club se n t a gif t for each c h ild and the teacher, ca nd y, two bus hels of apples and oranges and decorations for a tree.

Wro te Elsie Moore, ··Thi s is the best C hristmas we ever had." Wrote L . D . Moore, Jr ., 2 1 3

pupil, "Old Santa Claus were very, very nice and we sure did enjoy it." Wrote Pupil Earl Merida, "Oh, Santa Claus come!"

Wh en the sc hool turned out last June Elsie wrote, "You all is making my sc hool grow ." Her thirty-one pupils h ad become forty-eight.

School had become pleasure.

And the Pi Phi's? Their attendance h ad jumped from ten to forty, their membership to 100, they had learned the joy of doing for others and the le sson that char ity should begin at home .

With the resumption of campus activities at Dalhousie University there was also a great enthwi.asm shown in the return to fraternity interests. The Nova Scotia A dele,ltatcs incre.ased this enthusiasm with their vivid accounts of Con\"tnt ion.

I;1formal meetings were held during the latter months of the summer by the members o f Nova Scotia A who remained in Halifax. Plans fo r the rushing party were discussed and some preparations were made. It was suJUtested that the rushing-party be a ghost party. This ide.a was en larged upon and finalized a t the first official meding which WaJ h e ld on October 6.
