If golf Is you r favorite sport. this resort otro rds you Ii sporty st llndard length cour se of nine h o les uod benutiful greens A committee haa been lIJ)polnted to take c harge o f the mntc hes and to award a prize to the Pi Pbi winner.

There are bard s urfaced courts where one may enjoy 8 set of tennis. Trap shooting for those who like the target practice.
As Breezy Point occupies a point running out into big Pelic an Lake, there has been a great deal done so that the gu ests may enjoy the water. There's aqua-planing, boating, swimming, Bod diving In th e c l ear, fresh waters.-and 8 velvet beach tor your dally sun bath .

STUNTS FOR STUNT NIGHT
Are you at work now upon a stunt for stunt night? This is always one of the most entertaining evenings of Convention as it gives the chapters an opportunity to display originality and talent. Read the Convention Chronicle in the December ARROW, 1925 for suggestions.
CONVENTION DAILY
A COIwe"tion Daily will be published and will be 'mailed every day to subscribers upon receipt of SOc, sent to the Business Manager, Katherine Robinson, 1130 South Franklin St., Denver, Colo.

All journalists are to send their names to the Daily Editor, Katherine Robinson , 1130 So. Franklin .St., Denver, Colo.
DELEGATES
Choosing your delegate is one of the most important duties to be considered by your chapter. Your delegate will represent to the rest of the fraternity your chapter "type." Do not send a gir l to convention because you feel she deserves the honor since someone else was elected president or received other recognition. Disregard personal feelings and choose the young woman who you con si der is most representative of your group and who can also bring back the greatest amount of inspiration and national in for. mat1()n to you. Send someone who is not afraid to rise on convention floor and pre sent your problems and id eas; choose someone who is a quick thinker and who can make decisions wisely. Alumnae clubs should make every effort to send representatives to the Convention this year. Alumnae dele!:ates have a voice in all alumnae matters .
SONG CONTEST
Before the last Convention, the New York Alumnae Club gave to Pi Beta Phi a beautiful sterling vase about fifteen inches high which is to be presented at each Convent ion t o th e chapte r ha ving submitted the best new song to the music com mittee during the in . ter vening two years. It s purpose is to f oster better songs and mu sic among the chapters, and a t present the c up is h eld by North Carolina Alpha. University o f Nor th Ca rolina.
The song con t es t is ope n no w . All types of so ngs will be consi d e red, a nd whil e o ri gina l mu sic is not n ecessa ry, the latter would of co ur se command fir st attention . A nyone may writ e th e so ngs , but th ey must be sent in by some definite Pi Beta Phi cha pt er.
All so ngs for this competition must be in the hands of Margaret Kellenbach, 3135 College Ave., Indianapoli s , Indiana by May 15.

Tben down thp hl Htori c Valley of the Yellowstone Rlver, famous in the lore of Indlon wllrs. to Livingston. Montana, the diverging point to Yellowstone Park. At Gardiner, after 8 thrilling ride in open obsenatlon cars from {.. h-Iogston. ){ootoon , through enchanting Paradise Valley. between the steep 1\' 8118 of Yankee Jim Canyon nod past th e glowing ·'.oe,-I1's SUde" , ) ' OU pass under the Hoosevelt Arch Into the wonderland of the Park R(H!ky foot ·bUls carpeted with pine forest crowd around you, wblle hlgb above tower rugged sDow-clad peaks, aloot nnd awesome. There Is something distinctly primal about the Rocky M()untains , In slODe Park you see them "8S they were In the beginning. " Mamm oth Bot Springs, the "cn,pltal" of the pork, lies in a h()llow ot tbe mountains. Here tbe gO\' ernment adm inistration buildings ore &Toupe<! about aD lnl"itlng big hotel, with the hospitable lodges nearby .
THE ARROW OF PI B£TA PHI
The rainbow colored terraces of the hot springs gUsten above the val · ley on one side, and tourists are enger to explore them Immediately. A herd of butralo may be seen grazing nearby nnd the Park museum a1so demands attention.
On the trip through the Park, forests, colored lakes, strange rock formations and biasing caver n s appear, and finally the wonders of the u.pper nnd lower geyser basins. H e who bas not seen 8 geyser cannot Imagine the wonder nnd o t it. And then the landscape appears filled with them, you begin to und erRtund the cxn U cd praises you have heard sung 8S long as you cnn remember.
Old Faithful Geyse , close to Old Hotel and Camp, Is con· sidered most beautiful of a11 by the toul'i8ts, nnd it is bard to go on trom t111s fascinating part ot the park.
But beyond Ues the wonderful ascent to the Conti nental Divide. with Lake Yellowstone's serene l oveliness belOW, n lake framed by high mountains only dimly visible from One shore to the other. Bears , friendly and unafraid, entertain tourists here, while gOOd fishing and boat trips tempt e\'eryone to linger at J..ake H otel and Camp. Surely, you think, n ot hing ill tho Pal'k can 8UI' pn ss bp8Uty of this particul ar region.
1'0 one Is (Iuite prepared, therefore, for tbe climax of the tour. Jt co mes suddenly. overpowering one with its unsurpassed sJ)lendor-tbe Grand Canyon of tbe Yellowstone.
Great wrlters and great artists bave attempted to put upon paper and canvass the ageless grandeur of this great colored rock, but no one has succeeded in even approximating tbe e1rect which it has u,pon the emotions 1t CIlIl on ly be called a wondl'ous thing, and lett undescribed.
From the Grnnd Canyon you take the spectQ.cu tar 9O-mlle s ightseeing drive on the Bl1fTnlo Bill country nnll Shoshone National Forest Q! Wyoming.

Much more to their liking was the all day's ride through the white dust ot southern FrllIlce, which ended in the oleanders, the olive BDd oranlte ,roves of the Riviern, the winter playground of the world. There, at Monte Car lo, I can plctm'c ourselves standing 00 the terrnce o f the Casino Rod looking out over the turquoise blue of the Medlter· ranenn toward the Island of Corsicn which lay just t,eyond our bori· zon. I can picture agalo our night at Marsellles, the Gateway of the Orient- a city where everybody seemed satisfied with things as they are, where natives and tourists alike were "awake to glory" till dawn, a city 80 permeated with the spirit of gaiety nnd good will that the call of "to arms, to arms" of th e Mnrsclllnise seemed n voice trom out a discordant past, For U8 there wos a long hard climb in the burning sun next morning to the church of Notre Dn me de 10 Garde where we looked out over the sea to thc lsle of Montc Cristo and recalled the Count's escape from the cbateau prison there, how be cut tbrough bil cell to an outer onc 1Uld excbanged places wIth its dead occupant whose body was shrouded in n weighted canvas bag ready to be drop· ped into the sea, We allowed our imaginations to picture the gruesome bUDdle as It hurtled from the paraIWt and splashed into the water, where later emerged and gasped for aIr the very lhely but cautious body of the Count, who had slit the cam' as wIth his knife, and who then swam silently a way toward shore nnd freedom,
From Marseilles we followed In Cncsl1r ' s footsteps, a country of barren rocks, vineyards and goats, We wondered what Caesar saw here to merit 80 much construction in stone aud so much destruction of life. At Aries and Nlmes \ye almost felt the presence of 'IGrent Caesar's "Ghost" in the massive old ruins, amphitheaters and aqueducts anel temples and baths. 'l'he boys were so thrilled at the sigbt of the Pont du Gard, that st upendous pIece ot ancIent masonry, that they de· clded to forgive Ulis old Romnn for tbe trials and tribulations he had occasioned them tn their school work,
Then there was Carcassonne with its "towers, turrets, and battle. menta," aod encircling wall. Here we were transpor t ed Into the time "When Knighthood was in Flower. " As we drove over the drawbrIdge and through the gates at sundown, lYe half expected to see some hel· meted head to appear over the ramparts and call out, "Up drawbridge groom, let the portcullis tall." That evening we fatrly saturated ourselves with medieval hIstory and that night went to sleep to dream ot knights in armour, dungeons, torture chambers with chopDing blocks and battle axes.
1 chuckle reminiscenUy at our encounter with some geese In the Baeque country. when our progress was as eUectually blocked by a compa.ny of these feathered soldiers as if Charlemagne and all bia torces opposed Uli. The haughty Toulouse gander and his flock waddled down the middle of our road unruffled, unmoved by our iDsistent born. Per · baPl' tbeae ceese were the enchanted Black PrInce and his knl,bts
gua rding the bor(}er of Fairyland, tor Fueb seemed the country Into which w (' n ut came, the chateau dtstri<-t along the Loire.

She is fisherman type, built according to a proved design and equipped wit h auxi liary sai l rig for steadying in bad weather Her power is that of a 120 h .p. crude oil engine and h e r cruising radius is nearly fi fty per cent longer than that of the old Sunbeam.

The presidential party, which a lso included Mrs. Coo lid ge. Secretary of War Davis, Everett Sanders of Terre Haute, who is the President's sec retary, and attaches, arrived on the Pennrailroad speci al train at 5:30 p. m.

A DRESS FOR MRS . COOLIDGE
The Pi Beta Phis of Kansas City will long remember Armistice Day of 1926, as it brought to the city for the dedication o f its Memorial, President and lIlrs. Coolidge .
Since their stay was of only a few hours duration it was impossible f or the Pi Phis to obtain any time for the entertainment of 1':s. Coolidge. Anxious, however, to do something to express their admiration and love for her, and ieeling !hat f I 'J W e r s would bring only a moment's pleasure ai n d would then be lost t o her in the myriads 0: other bouquets, these Pi Phis decided that a gift fro m the Settlement S c h 001 at Tenn., might bring' h rr lasting pleasure.
EDNA 1I{cCARTER
When this idea was transmitted to 'Miss Evelyn Bi s ho p, Head Resident at the School, it received her hearty endorsement and she straightway set the School's most expert weaver, Edna Mc Carter, a girl of fifteen, to wo rk upon the weaving of a lovely dress pattern in soft creanl woo l, with a deep block pattern of self color.
THE ARROW OF P, BETA PHI
The material arrived in Kansas City just a day before the time for its presentation and was greatly admired Ly those who had a glimpse of it, ere. with a picture of the young weaver at he; loom, it went into its s nowy wrappings, and was bound about with ties of wine and blue.
Mrs. Clyde Porter ( Willie M. Reed, Iowa r), president of the alumnae club, presented the dress through a co urt eous but watchful member of the Secret Service on guard at the portal s of the presidential s uite . Later Mrs. A. I. Beach (Marjorie Marshall, Kansas A), the wife of Kansas City's mayor, and hostess to the President's party, told Mrs. Coolidge the details of the weaving of the dress and found her to be mo s t appreciative of it.
So, in the gardens of the White House in early spring perhaps our lovely First Lady will walk, clad in a gown of softest white.
Several days after the presentation a most cordia l note of thanks came from Mrs. Coolidge to the Kansas Alumnae Club.
The Kansas City Star gives the following colorful description of Mrs. Coolidge during her first hours in the city:
"The winsome smile ot the First Lady ot the land was one ot the high· lights of the arrival of the presidential party. The Prellident stepped from the train with (ormal and dlgnitled me In to meet the w e lcoming committee. But It wu the smUing and beautifu l woman alert ot countenance a nd ready to r eceive the hearty g-reetlng of an admiring pOpulnce with genuine sincerity. who won al l bearts.
"Simple and gracious ot manner, she wu ready tor the day'. events by that beet ot preparations with which humanity can be fortlt'led, a wlllIngnees to be pleased by the hospitality that Is offered In which she was taklne part by h e r volition,
"Mn. Coolidge has a knowledge ot the value ot tim e, a' rare thing In a wornan , She proved it by arraying herselt UpOn arilling, In the costume which she was to wear tor the principal evenls ot th e day, the M emo rial Dedication and the lun c heon at the Hotel Meuleba.ch.

SOUTHERN HIGHLANDERS
I have been dean of girls In Murphy Collegiate Institute in Sevierville. Tennessee the last two years. This school Is in the heart or tbe Smoky Mountains, nnd has ns Its stud ents boys ond girls DOW known os Southern Highlanders. Contrary to the pre'f'nHing Idea tbat the mountaineer is nn Jdoient, Ignorant 80rt, he is the soul ot ambItion when once he 1s given an opportunity. I have never seen such types of physical perfection-fine fen tured , en.'<:t, well groomed American boys and girls.
I could write volumes of my admiration tor the Southern Highlan ders, but I can give an idea ot Ufe and service there with one CODcrete example.
Just two years ago this month I telt a new sense ot pride in my privJ1E'ge at. being a fraternity woman when I saw the embodiment ot a wondertul traternity ideal, worked out In the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School In Gatlinburg, TenneSliee. 1 had gone with the president ot our school to an old tashioned county tair, hlgb up In the mountains. Bundreds ot men on horseback, n mountain ot corn, old fashioned ftduler&-I felt 8S It 1 was looking at a movie. Suddenly I heard a PI Phi SOllg sung by a chorus at some thirty or forty boys and girls rang· ing In trolll eight to tourteen years. I wish that 1 cou ld describe It 80 that everyone could get the thr1l1 that I did ali I watched those children singing their praise to PI Phi, who has made education poSSible f or them.
I have vIsited the school Itself several Urnes since then tor It holds a wo nd erfU l fllscination for me. Forty miles f,rom Kno:r:vllJe Over a rOlld winding around the mountains one reaches the PI Phi school, altuatt"d In a "a lley, surrounded by mountains. There are cottages for the glrl8, cottages for the boys, a eottage tor the teachers, a school, a hospital.

The teachers are PI Pb1s-Pi Phis from Canada, from Texas, tram IlUn ols--charmlng, vigorous girls, devoted to their work and their fraternity.

Th e PI Beta Phi Fraternity feels tbat In bavIng f o unded the PI Beta Pbl Settlement School t h e Ideals ot the first at Gatlinburg.

Fraternities 8nd colleges hav e d o ne a good d e a I of constructive work. Most ot the high· e r and cultural colleges maintain settlements of some kind, placing t hese mainly In large cities where conditions are cro wd e d and a foreign e reme ot has to be taken care of.
The PI Beta Phi work,

THE ARIloW OF PI BETA PHI
Since our earliest recollections there has been a division between the peoples ot the mountains and those ot the plains. The Pi Phla feel that through thetr code ot ethics th ey have leame4 that any experimental effort toward humanized service, with its object the betterment ot humanity. is worthy ot consideration and that It is ot vital sign ificance to our Nation
Seveml years ago there we re numerous newspaper articles that tou ched on tbe tl'agic ignorance ot the primitive 11te 01 the mountaineers of North CaroUna, Kentucky. and Tennessee. At tbe Swarthmore Convention In 1910, the WashLngton Alumnae Club delegate appealed to the Nntional Fraternity to sanct ion the estnbl1sbment of a achoal In ODC of these districts.
For nearly two years the Frate rnity enUsted the bell' ot Congress men , State Legislators nnd Government oft1cla18, In order to locate the most needy pla ce . A committee found that Gatlin'burg or "Little Pigeon," as It Is tamtl1arly known, In Sevier County, Tennessee, offered a most excellent fi eld tor such work 8S our dreams bad been anticipating. It Is a recognized fact that aU ot the big things that have happened In history have usually started In a very small way. So, we telt that our beginning beln, 80 small was destined to be great. It is lnteresting to know that we started school with one teacher, an experIenced mountain worker, whose house r ent cost us all of one and onehalt dollars per month .
The people or these mountains, the Unaka Range, a part of the Appalach nin system, have an interesting history. They are descendabts of Scot ch, Scotch·Irlsh, French and a few French-Itallans, known as Waldenalan s, however, all of which Is too long a story to take up here. <Shou ld anyone be more Interested In this, it would be advisable tor him to read ''The Land or Saddle Bags," A Study of the Mountain People ot AppalacbJa, by Jam es W att Rain e. Much bal been aald about the ancestry of these mountaineers and their customs, 80 I shall not go Into detail, as my main object here Is to prescnt the School to the members of your fraternity.
The purpose of the School is to give to the mountaineers of Southeaste rn Tennesaee educational trainlng; equivalent to a D elementary and high school course, with particular emphasis on Industrial and alrlcultural work, to provide a health center, to maintain a settlement house willi recreational activities, and to e:xtend to the mountaineers such belp from time to tlme Is needed.
OatllDburg, OD the Little Pigeon River, lies fol1:y-elght miles .by a.tomoblle road southeast or Knox-vUle. It la Ib:teen mUes from 8evie"llle, the County Seat ot 'Sevier county. At present there 1a no railroad connection trom Sevierville to Gatllnburg and only thla )"ear has a telephone line been Installed.
AN lDEAL DISPLAY FOR A SETTLEMENT SCHOOL MEETING
M emph is , T enn essee Alumna e Club
Teaching in n settl e ment requires a dl!tel'ent method Rnd, to quote trom another writer, it hos been found that the mounalneers can not take "their learning heIWlly " 1t must be given out in small parcels, someUmt's thl'ough sO<'inl atmosphere , developing fellowship and good will.
Our first school was at the junction of Baskins Creek and "Little Pigeon River," and we telt that even though we could only run the school tour months of that ye nr Ulat each year we could increase the length of the term unUl we woutd bave a tun nine months school term. At the beginning of o ur School Gatlinburg was a little hamlet of six or seven houses and an open air blacksmith shop. a tumbled down school bouse--wonderful1y ventilated, as many boards had tallen of!, and an equally well ventilated Bapti s t church . I remember a servIce I attended In the last mentioned cbnr('h 'I'he file s n e arly ate us up aDd those we killed witb t.be hymn books gave a very meaty dinner to the r eltglous chickens that attend e d sen-lees. Church was held ooae 8 month by 8 preacber who was more Or less uneducated. The age of the students in the beginning varied tram ten to forty. And, another thing we had to contend with was that children of actual school age bud to bring the youuger chltd r en with them, in order to be able to come to schOOl at all. Tbe Datives were auspicious 'o t outaldera, did

not want any interference, but they desired better educational advant8&'e8. They had to accept the work oUered by Pi Beta Pht. Their .plrlt ot hospitality. crude afl it was, prevailed and 8 cooperative working atmol!Jpbere was created among the young workers. It was not an e8sy beginning. And, to tht!!! day. we ha\'e to consider, very caretully. public opinion.
In looking backward, we find that in the early part of 1912 they hall their first soc iable. It was 8 primitive room wIth long seats, no desks, very low celUngs supported by poles, and there were six ot these poles. Here they were taught to sing and here tbe two Pi Phi workers said, "All these people at Gatllnburg need II a light and a chanco."
It Is interesting to know that we had to teach these children their games. 'fhey elId not e\' en know how to "drop the handkerchief." And, now, each year it Is with a great deal or satisfaction we watch these healthy young Americans play with their neighbors at "tug ot war", baseball, basketball. and 8uch sports during the county Gatlinburg fair. For some years we have promoted community interest tn a fair which would do credit to any thriving community. In speaking 01 basJ.;,etball, I teel 1 should tell you or a funny instance that happened seve ral years ago . We have a very good friend who has a summer home at Gatlinburg. He provided the baskdboll team with their suits, and the teacher who has charge of athletics instructed the boys to don their unHorms. After Qwte a l ong time they appeared with their suits over their overal1s, a8 they felt that they were enUrely too Immodest othe rwise.
I shall not go into detali to tell you how uninviting their homes were, but, If at any time you were occasioned to be there, they were always open to welcome in a stranger. The teachers at the PI Beta Phi school were looked upon to be pecul1aT If they happened to be more than twenty when they arrived at Gatllnburg to teach because they were not married. Early marriages, 88 enrly 8.8 twelve and thlr· teen to nineteen, were contracted Bnd it was no unusual s lgbt to see a tamBy ot thirteen to nineteen cbi1d reno They are, however, mn rrylng later In Ufe on the whole than in 1912, nnd there are fewer chUdren.
When the World War came, Gatlinburg sent hel" quota of moUDtaineers. They went In the 30th DivisIon wblch came trom the mountaLns ot North Rnd South CaTalina and Tennessee. You may depend upon It that the men of the 30tb Division could shoot. for hunting game bad not died out in their country. We have atars for nineteen boys on our service nog, of which there ore three gold stars.
r have told you mainly of our beginning and now r want to tell you of our work 88 it Is today. Our plant baa grown trom one little 8Cbool house to quite a number ot bouses. We have the main building, the teachers cottal'e, two cottages tor iPrl8 dormitorie8, which are IUPer,,11ed bl matrona and teachers, one cotta,e tor 0011, a muaeum and
a bealth center. The pupils who board at the school tUC kept there through scholarshlpe given by certain people from oyer the United States, while others of them do part time work Lo pay tor their tuJtion.
In the Smltb-Hughes Agricultural work, we conduct 11 sbort CO urse in Animal Husbandry We hne an l'Endless Pig Chain" where a boy Is given a pig with n coutrtl ct t o re turn 8 certain per cent of tbe little pigs. 'I' hose, In turn , ore giyen to another boy who raises another litter of pigs, returning so many back to the school. Tbe 88me scheme Is contracted in promotIng thorougbbred chicken raising.
Gatlinburg 8011 Is ·well adapted for fruit raising, especially apples. In reaChing the older people we have asked the tather to give the boy one tree out or his orchard The class in the Agricultural Department h n s coma to thts tree, sprayed It, pruned it, and cultivated It. The lather notices that the apples on this tree are of a more even size; that It Is free of rust and BLILDING CHICKEN BOUSE spots, so hp comes to osk to help him This Is a part ol ou r community work. We have taught them that it is better to raise thoroughbred cattle and chickens. WI"! have taught them how to build a barn that Is up-to-date, yet In keeping with this Isolated district.
We a l so hUye the Smith-Hughes Domestic Economy classes. Here we have classes in canning, studies In balanced diets, and practical as ,""ell as theoretical cooking and sewing. The ages ol the students In th e se classes range from twelye to seventy years. Beside the regular school course, we huye clnsses In weaving. W e l)rOmote weaving among adults as a rainy day industry. W e encourage the people in farming and cattle raising, but we also promote this weaving and bURket making for ruln y dRY purposes .
\Ye feel very proud of the nd"ancemenl in this Line. We have a .... ery well organized Bealth center . Every three weeks we bold dental cUn l cl, and during the s umm e r some Chicago dentists assist in this work for a very small fee. W e promote education in sanita tion and benltb hygiene and feel that we ha,Te accomplished 8 great denl.
Some interesting statistics ot Sevler County, I think, should be noted b ere. The number of desks there in 1916 was lorty-three. and In 1923, 2100. In 1916 there were no librarIes. Now, tbere are twentyone. There were no cODsol1dated schools In 1913, but 1D 1928 there

were thlrty tw o with l,,""o o r mo r e tenchers. In 1915 there w ere 5113 pupl1s ond in 1923. (3994, with n decrease in populatJoD.
J have Dot sold much about the finances or operation of th e school . The donations to the School have always voluntary and n ever have the fo.nds decreased since the beginning, but ench year we find that the members of Pi Beta Phi 8re more wIlling to give to tbJs great cause thaD ever. We f eel that with this wond erful object to work tor that there bas been 8 closer bond of fellowship between alumnae clubs and active chapters . The Pi Beta Phis have contributed anoually by In · dlvldual gilts through clubs who have conducted sales of Industrial goods such as weaving and basket work, or at bridge parties, etc. The School Is supervised by a commIttee of five wh o makes an annual vIsit to the school, the Cbalrman making two visits, onnually At the School proper, there Is an excellent staff of people, particularly and peculiarly Buited to conduct classrooms, meet obstacles and mingle In the civic and reUgious Ufe ot the community. Our work has grown to such an extent that we have opened up an extension work at Sugorlands, upon the request of the people ot that community. At this ter we have been condueting classes in adult education. It is a pathetic sight to see old men and women, some grandparents, struggling to learn to write thefr names, and It also gives us a great deal o f pleasure to see their joy in having leaTDed this teat.
May the spirit that fostered the PI Beta Phi Settl ement School In the beginning, support It through the years to come, that the entire work may act as a leaven to help not only the PI Phis, but the Frate rnity spirit trom one end ot this areat nation to Ita uttermost bounds,

And this from the New York Herald Tribune:
"The author's vignettes of heT child hood and later life in a village of the Middle West aTe quite as attractive as the story of her escape from narrow religious denominationalism."

Convention will soon be here again bringing us together f rom all corners of this country and even from foreign lands It s h o uld mean a w ee k of constr uctive work and pleasure in which Convention every day is d evoted to the strengthening of our organization. The coming together of so many women of varied experiences and ideas yet who are all inte r ested in the advancement of ed ucat ed and cultured womanhood, sho uld mean much t o Pi Beta Phi. The fact that we repres e nt chapters in co ll eges of all sizes, ages and stages of development s ho uld mean that we have a combined viewpoint capable of grasp ing all probl em s of the college woman of today. We should remember that we a re all units of a big team and should play the game from the team's standpo in t. The Convention referee's whistle is blowing. Get into line I
Pi Beta Phi extends congratulations to the young women wh ose na mes appear in the list of the Honor Graduates in thi < issue of the ARROW. This li st shows the attainment of two goals: the finishing of a full college course, and Scholarship the fini s hing of it with distinction. An investigation of the work of the majority of these honor gradu al" r eveals the interesting information that they have not been jn ·· "grinds" but ha"e lived norma l, hea lthy and well-rounded college lives.
The winning of a key or honorary pin should not be th e goal o f a .rodent-at least not tbe winning just for the sake of possession-but it sho uld be a goal signifying to the student h ours well spent. The primary object in attending college is to study and to train the mind so that the individual may go out into the world and more easily work out her problems of living and advancement. The mother of Greek·letter organizations, Phi Beta Kappa, which has just celebrated it s one hundred and fiftieth anniversary has as its chief aim-high scholarship. Tbis organization
should be an inspiration to every other organizaton bearing a Greek -letter name. In these days of hurried living, changing conditions, the speeding up of every phase of existence-too mu ch emphasis cannot be placed upon scholarship and the development of mind and body through study.
It seems rather unnece ssary to call attention to the fact that many letters fail to reach their destination because of an incorrect address, yet complaints come regularly to the Editor's desk concerning this point. A name appearing in Co rr ect A ddre ss the ARROW directory as Mary Brown Jones (Mrs. Tompkin s), should read as follows when placed on an envelope to be sent to the above person: Mrs Tompkin s Jones. The name used in the parenthes es is always the husband's first name or initials. Please observe this in addressing lettt!Ts.

NEW ALUMNAE CLUBS i
The Grand Rapids Alumnae Club wa s o rganized o n Sept. 16 . 1926 . ).;illc Pi Phi s were entertained at th e home R. \V . Kinsey . . \t that tim e the following officers we re elected: President.

O ur membership at present number s tweh'e. \\ 'e are very happy to band toge ther as the fir st al umna e club of Grand Rapids. One of our member s , 1\1rs . Kinsey, has been active in other club s and we are greatly indebted to her for many good suggestions .
O ur meetings have taken the fonn of delightfully friendly teas at the homes of the members.
Ot h er fraternitie s are now s tartin g a lumna e clubs here tlus winter. We are hoping that the oppor tunity ma y present itself when w e may all work together to strengthen these new organizations.
We all l ook forward to our Pi Phi meetings, the second Wednesday of eac h month. Although we are a small clu b w e intend to do our best for the Se ttlem e nt School and for n B <I> nat i o nal1y.
THE POL;DRE VALLEY CLUB
The PO ll dre Valley Alumnae C lu b of Pi Beta Phi was formed in September, 1925, as an informal club, whi ch met once a month. At the meeting held October 2 1, 1926, however, it wa s decided to app ly for a national charter, so we arc now a part of the national organization .
•\Ve claim as our most illustriou s member, Agnes Wright Spring, ARROW Editor, and give h e r c red it for bringing u s together. We also boast of an 1. C ., for Rebecca Ty ler Petty is an
I. C. The charter members are: Elean o r Steinburg Anderson (M rs Delos, Nebraska B), Lois Silcott Auld (Mrs. Matthew , Iowa B), Constance Chatterton, (Wyoming A), Willa Clammer (Iowa B), all of Fort Collins, Colorado ; Frances Hall Comly ( Mrs. R. H.. Illinois E. Wisconsin A), Loveland, Colorado, E. Stanfield Harter ( Mr s. Charles, Illinois H). Loveland, Colorado, Lucile Hartman, (Iowa B), Ora T. Hartman (Mrs. H . H., Iowa B), Mary S. Humphrey s (M rs. Walter, California r), Ruth Eppler Keagy (Mrs. Reiner A, Kansas B), Helen Haynes McCreary, (Mrs. H. B., Iowa Z), Maude Delmege Packard (Mrs. Louis, [owa Z, Nebraska B and Colorado A), Rebecca Tyler Petty (Mrs. H. G. Iowa E), Ruth P. Richmond (Mrs. R. C. Co lorado B), H elen McWhinnie Ricker ( Mrs. Donald C., Wyoming A), Marjorie Keith Robinson (Mrs . George, Colorado B). and Agnes vVright Spring (Mrs. A. T ., Wyoming A), all of Fort Collins, Colo. Other members are: Eva Fenton Challgre n (Mrs. C. A. , Colorado B) , Greeley, Colo., and Mildred White Ryan (M rs. E. J., Colorado B), Windsor, Colo.
Our officers are: Ruth P. Richmond, president; Eleanor Steinburg Anderson, vice PTesident; Mary C . Humphreys, treasurer, and Lucile Hartman, secretary .
We held a special meeting December 2, which was devoted to making dolls and scrap books for the Settlement School. On December 16 we held o ur Christmas party in the f orm of a cooky-shine, and each one brought a toy for the tree. After we had opened our presents we packed them in the Settlement School box with the dolls and scrap books.
SHREVEPORT ALU MNAE CLUB
The Shreveport Alumnae Club was organized in October. 1924, with the following niembers present at the meeting : Mrs. G. M. Williamson ( Carrie Hopkins, La. A ); Mrs . G. W. Haywood (Hazel Nail, Ark. A); Mrs. ]. O. Nelson (Florence ' Lyford, Nebr. B) ; Mrs. C. O . Day (Myrtle Beeler, Nebr. B ) ; Mrs . H. H. Bain (Mary Easterl ing, Ohio B); Mrs. Jack Oliphant ( Cecile Evans, Texas A) ; Mrs . C. M. Dorchester (Adele Glas-
gow, Texas A) ; Mrs . William Coleman (Geraldine Harper, Texas B); Mrs M. W. Grimm (E loise Sandlin, Okla. A)
Because our members hip was SO small we decided to remain merely a social club for awh il e. O ur meetings were held once a month in the homes of the members and were most enjoyable because th ey brought u s t ogether in a re vival of the old Pi Phi spmt. As the months w ent by we add ed new girls to the list and lost one of our first members , Geraldine Coleman, who moved to Missouri. We had several parties at the various homes to welco me pledges and to meet visiting Pi Phis . We also observed our Founders ' Oay with luncheon s. In the past two ye ar s we have added to o ur club the fallowing members: Mrs . William Gross (Mary Starr, III. E); Mrs. Frank Cook (Amelia Foster, Mo . A) ; Mrs. Frank Ellis ( Mary Alice Evans, Texas B ); Mrs. J. E. Hooks (E li zabeth Smiley, Mo . A); Mrs. Paul Bell (M ary Bryan , Texas A); Sydney Barrow (Texas A)
In the fall of 1926 w e d eci ded that we had enough members to organize as a real club. Now we have our charter.
O ur last meeting was a mos t interesting one . Mary Bain entertained us at a lov e ly luncheon at the Yousee Hotel. As our special guest we had Harmo Taylor of Tyler, Texas, who told us all about the Settlement School in the most delightful way We then resolved to do all we could for this most interestin gSchool, and, I believe, that will be first among our New Year' s re solutions.

BLAT7, MR ; . G US TAVI" (R':CA BODDEN). The news of the s udd en deat.h of Rega Bodden l3Iatz last March bro ught grief to many Pi ,Phi s throughout 'Visconsin, who had known her when she was a member of \ ,Vis. A, at the -University of \Vi sconsin . Rega was born Dec. I, 18&Q, in Milwaukee. After graduating from the East Side High Schoo l of Milwaukee she entered the university in 1905. Her unu sual beauty, natural charm and delightiul sen se of humor made her one of the most belo"ed girls in th e chapter and one of the most popular on the campus. In h e r freshman year she wa s e lectrd to the Mystic Circle, an inter-sorority organ i zation, and in her sophomore year wa s c hosen vice-president of her class.
She was married July 14, 1909 to C u stave Blatz. They liv ed in Milwaukee where their home was always the center of genuine hospitality and the happy gathering place for Wisconsin Alumnae.
As a memQer of the II B alumnae association Rega took an active part and served as it s president one year .
She leaves, beside her husband, four so ns, Custave, Edward, Robert and Albert, who will always have for their inspiration th e memory of a mother, courageous, loyal , gracious and radiant.
HACKER, MRS. EDWARD T ., (VICTORIA \¥EEK S), of Port · land , Maine, passed away on September 16, 1926.
Victoria Hacker, daughter of the Reverend Thomas S. \Veeks, of Bangor, Maine, attended the Univers ity of lIIaine, at Orono, where s he became a member of n B 4>. A brilliant st udent, she comp leted the full collegiate course in three years, play. ing at the same time an important part in all student activ iti es. She was a mem be r of the Girl's Glee Club during her entire co urse, and served as its reader during h er last year, a member of the Cercle Francaise, and was always prominent in class and fraternity organizat ions .
A fter her graduation she taught Spanish and French in the
high schoo ls of Natick, Milton, Winchester and Winthrop, Massachusetts, until the spring of 1923, when she was married to Edward S. Hacker. also of the Unive r sity of Maine, a member of Phi Eta Kappa fraternity, and the ,ice president of the Ballard Oil and Equipment Company of :lIaine. Upon their removal to the city of Port land, Yictaria quickly became a leader in the younger social and college circles, was the first president of the Uni\'crsity of l\fainc " To men. and it was due large ly to her o wn personal enthusiastic and untiring efforts that the Portl and Alumn ae chapter of n B cz, was organized in 1925. Iter death, caused by pneumonia, fonowed two days after the bIrth of her first child. She i:, 'iurvi\ted by her sister, Mrs. Ernest C. Priest, of Portland; a brother, Thomas . Weeks, of Waterville, Maine; her husband, Edwa rd T Hacker, and th e infant 5011. Edward Thomas.
Victoria Hacker was -a w01l1an whose great depth of c h aracter was equal1ed by a ral'e charm of mann e r, one warml y interested in all movements of the day , political and ed uca ti ona l as well as socia l, and possessed a rare tal ent for making, and h old in g friends. Scores upon sco r es o f exq ui site fl o ral offerings and literally hundreds of letters and telegrams of condo le nce, were e loq uent t es tim ony to the high es t eem. and th e tender r ega rd , in which Victoria and her hu sband were h eld
My FRIEND, VICTORIA HACKER
In the fall of 1925, I began wo rkin g u pon a new novel, the scenes of whi ch w ere l aid o n an i s land in Casco B ay at the porlals of Port land . R ea li z in g that personal co ntact with local c h a racter a nd at mosp h e re were essential to the story, I engaged a sma ll apartment in Portland and t ook up residence for the winter. It wa s no more than a wee k later, I am sure, that I w as called to the t e lep hone, and a warmly vibrant young voice inquired,
··Are you th e Ethel] lue sto n wh o is a Pi Phi?"
A good many years of hard work, a great deal of travel h e re and there, and many m o nths' res iden ce abroad, had put me out o f t o uc h with my friends of Pi Phi, I no longer received The ARROW, and had n o t worn the badge for several years. Th e que stion amazed me.
It I am," I answered, "but who in' the world knows it?"
IfI do," called Victoria Hacker, triumphantly.
She had read of my work-I don't know how many years ago,-in th e ARROW. And she read in the Portland papers that an Ethel Hueston wa s writing a book here And she had not forgotten.
That was one of the secrets of Victoria Hacker's great powe r, and her great charm. She did not forget. Pi Beta Phi has but one chapter in Maine, quite a new, young chapter, and we have but few alumnae in Portland. But through Victoria I was drawn into their group, a young group, almost cbildren to me, and I was their patriarch ,-I, of Iowa Wesleyan, 1909. Victoria was our ringlead er, o ur organizer, our president. Her vivid per· sonality wa s our nucl eus, the rest of us revolved contentedly about her.
Radiant is the word that describes her. Beautiful because of her radiant aliveness, always alert, always interested, always eager.
Durin g the winter we found in Victoria a genuine sister, and, through her, in her young hu sba nd, a devoted brother. On winter nights when ordinary cars were snugly garaged, and when eve n taxis declined to operate. Edward Hacker, with Victoria beside him , braved the blizzards of the north and picked us up one after another, eight, nine, up to a dozen, in his snug little five passenger car, and took us all to fraternity meeting. Always helpful , alwa ys kindly, always our brother, as he is today . But Victoria is gone.
In the months that preceded the birth of little Edward Thomas, she did not lo se, but rather gained in radiance. Eagerly anticipating the future, bravely confident of the outcome , she seemed altogether fearless and full of joy. On September 14th, her husband told us of tbe safe arrival of the small son, and two days later sent us the sad word that Victoria was dead.
In the passing of Victoria, our little alumnae chapteT ha s lost a talented leader, Pi Beta Phi a loyal member, and I a rare young friend .

tions that 8uch and 8uch a fraternity Is best or "there Is no fraternity Uke---" are not mere boasts . They are expressions of belle! and loyalty and we eventually nnlve at the conclusion that, judgtng from the Congress fraternities, there arc nlneteen "best" 1'raterntUes but to the Individual Ulcre is just nne thnt completely fllls the b11l and 8uttS exactly. Therefore that particular one Is "best" , And the readers ot Them ." all have their OW11 particular views 8S to the one they ca ll best. In tact. we know thnt they are very opinionated on the subJect.-Thcmis 01 Z T A.
We are groping ou r WRY' out ot the materialism that has encircled college Ute these two decades or so just past Into 8 rcturn to a practical Idealism. to say the least. which may become again a seeking ot Truth, it not 11 desire tor the intangible and Invisible values that make a reality ot lite. Dr. Van Dyke expresfol('s it well when he 88Y8, "The object of n college education is not to enable It mnn to earll a Uvlng but to teach him bow to enlarge and enrich his mental and moral Ute, to be a renl person and not a mere cog in the mnchine of industry."
The part which fraternities p iny in college life Is more clearly seen in such a Ugbt. The Chapter House Is more, much more, than n dormitory or a dLnlng-hall, and the fraternal ties do not assist in making a living 80 mucb 8S they make living 8 worthwhile thing. Fraternities which cultivate an earnest atmosphere ot study and. even more, a zeal to achievement fire builduig n structure tor tbelr housing more durable than the bouse walls, more literul than the personnel of membership. - Th e D elta of Sigma Nu.
"FIFTE EN A DAY"
CommerciaUsm has exploited in this country the idea that men can buy culture by spending fifteen minutes a dny In the perusal ot a certain set ot 900ks, says Th.e Laurel of Pbi Kappa Tau. The object is not tbe broadening ot mental vision, but business success. To become the center of soc1ll1 attraction among your aCQunLntances, to rise trom office boy to president ot the firm in alx years, to Impress all wbo meet you with your striking grasp of world problems and your mastertul personality-fifteen minutes a day i8 all that 18 necessary.
The 'fallaey that culture t or any purpose can be 8eC'Dred by an application ot only fi.tteen minutes a day is 80 apparent that turtbel) comment i.s unnecessary. The unfortunate part is that 8UCIl a vast proportion ot men O-re going tbrough college app lying the "tlfteen min· utes day" attitude to their college work. They are surrounded by unparalleled opportunities to gain a rich toundatlon ot ltterary and
artistic appreciation that will be a lite-long possession, yet, because such things are beneath caste In college. mBny a person ShUDS courses and perSODS who could aid In guiding aright the growth ot this sense ot appreciation of the vastness and beauty of lite, be It from phU08ophy, literature. art. or whatnot.
And 80 with 8 veneer of social pollsh, n moderately good Une ot conversatioDal chatter, Rnd a contempt for intellectual work, the majority of college graduates Are grndUfited. Now this may not be entirely the fault of the student. The profession of college teaching does not always attract the men, who, by sheer personality and nblltty. have the God-riven power to Inspire those who study with them. Far too many college instructors have n cOUlpletely reverse effect on their classes.
Yet. however true this mRy be, it does not release the student trom his own r esponslbtuty. In compar ison with the opportunities afforded other generations the modern student has manitold advantages of which it seems he will not avail hlmselt.-A lpJti Phi Quarterly. * * *
