THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

FEBRUARY, 1935

VOL UME 51

EDITORIAL

NUMBER 3

p I BETA PHI hears with d""p regret of the death of our beloved former Grand President , Anna Lyttle Brannon. Sbe meant much to all Pi Phis, not only to those who had the privilege of knowing personally her gracious charm, but to those who knew of her as a line officer and an always devoted member. Your editor cherishes two memories of her. one as the lovely presidi ng officer at a Foundecs' Day luncheon in San Francisco in 1919, the other as the writer of a charming letter of greeting to the new editor last February A more detail ed accou nt of Mrs . Brannon appears under "In Memori am" in this issue. In acknow ledgment of Miss Onken's message to Dr. Brannon , he sends this messag e: "W ill you co nvey to your associates in Pi Beta Phi my earnest appreciation of their sympathy? It is well known that Mrs . Brannon had deep and loyal devotIon to her g reat fraternity."

THE fraternity world has also b<en saddened by the loss of two other women who have given distinguished service to their organizations, Leulah Judson Hawley, long -time editor of the Anchora of Delta Gamma, and Nellie Hart Prince, Phi Mu , past president and delegate to the National Panhellenic Cong ress. Such devotion as theirs is so line a thing, so real a contribution to the fraternity world at la rge that their loss will be widely felt and reg retted .

WE GIVE you in this number a picture of Convention in its light er, more perso n al side, in contrast to the serious features which were presented to you in the September ARROW. The editor wishes to thank those whn have helped her to make it interesting with pictures a Dd letters and articles, those in the fraternity and out of it. One thing was disappointingthat the pictures of the costume party were with one exception so poor that they could not be used-perhaps the lateness of the hour when they were attempted had something to do with that!

THE hospitality of the hostess chapters at Convention will always be remembered with pleasure. Nothing was left undone which might add to the pleasure and comfort of visitors. More than this , the same spirit of hospitality was shown everywhere th at Pi Phis had the opportunity to meet the girls who were on their way to Yellowstone or returning home. In Chicago, where Martha McGrew, District of Columbia Alpha, gave a tea at th e Century of Progress for the girls on the special train, in St. Paul , at Cody, at Salt Lake"city , where the chapter welcomed all comers--everywhere we were made to feel that the resident Pi Phis were giving us gracious welcome. To them all, we give grateful appreciation.

INTERE ST at Convention centered around the conference groups that were a feature . They brought out much interesting discussion, much exchange of methods and opinions . Said one delegate to the editor after one of the conferences, "This is the best part of Convention!" So constructive a program is well worth repeating on a more extended scale another time

F OR THE first time , we start a coUege year without our tine Pennsylvania A chapter. For the forty years of its existence, this chapter was an honor to the fraternity From it have gone forth some of the linest women who wear the Arrow. It is with deep feeling that we see it leave the chapter roll, and with the hope that we may never lose the interest and the loyalty of its members.

THE Endowment Fund Drive goes on, under the leadership of Florence Barnes Inghram. If you have not already subscribed, please do it now! Surdy we do not want to lag behind other fraternities in this project, on which SO many line plans for the future development of the fraternity depend.

GATLINBURG became a )?Iace of national importance for one day on October eighththe day the Great Smoky National Park commemorative stamp first went on sale there "The Little Pigeon is Bying high!" our Mrs. Duffield wrote of it truly, for on that one day the postal receipts there mounted into the thousands, receipts that normally are only hundreds for the whole year. Many people were attracted there for the occasion-we hope the Settlement &hooI had many visitors that day!

THE opportunity to learn definite facts ahout the fraternity and its government is by no means coolioed to those who go to Convention. To those who read carefully the Information ARROW much is given. Further, it ,is perhaps not generally realized that the fraternity through Grand Council and the Central Office is glad at any time to give to dubs and chap. ters additional information. Questions will be answered at any time, and copies of the vari · ous manuals which the fraternity has issued for the guidance of its officers will be gladly loaned to dubs or chapters desiring them. Grand Council has for its ideal a fraternity which is interested in all the workings of the organization, and which makes the most of the chances given them to learn what is being done by their officers. Particularly should this be the duty of those who are elected to office by clubs and chapters. We can never know too much ahout the organization which has honored us with its membership.

THE Editor has been making a study of the general attitude towards scholarship not only in our own chapters, but as shown in the magazines of other organizations. Out of that study one fact stands clearly--<overywhere there is a definite effort being made to· wards really high scholarship, towards doing away with the feeling that the brilliant stu· dent could not be interesting in other ways, and that A's were almost something to be hid· den, at least from everyone but the scholarship adviser!

As fraternities, our attitude towards this problem is changing. True, we have in the past used every possible method to raise scholarship in our chapters-but mostly this has been done through penalties and punishments, with a few rewards for balance. From this method we are now getting away. We have come to believe that good scholarship is something that comes from within the individual, that it can only be attained by individual effort. The grades of a chapter as a whole, its standing in college, can be temJ?Orarily stimulated by punishment, perhaps, but the improvement will be only a temporary thing. The inevitable slump will come when the threat of the penalty is withdrawn. Permanent high rank can only come when every member of a chapter knows that his personal effort to do as well as he possibly can, instead of working for merely passing grades, is the one thing that really counts.

It is in this direction that chapters of all fraternities must turn if we are to hold our place in the college world. We are awake to the fact that only by being outstanding in every relation of college life can we continue to exist with our present strength. Our chapters must work to develop this feeling of the responsibility of the Individual, to make current a feeling that real scholarship in the broad sense of the word is a major part of our duty to college and to fraternity.

S O OFTEN do we hear criticism of the fraternity system! So seldom do we hear its defense ade«uately presented! The article by Mrs. Collins, Iota Province Vice President, which we present here is line in its statement of the case for the fraternities

ADELE TAYLOR ALFORD

FROM THE VIEWPOINT.OF A GREEK

In response to an editorial recently appearing in SiI,," and Gold, official student publi. cation of Colorado University, I wish to offer a word of protest. Under the caption: "Fra· ternity Demise,'·-this artide, by the way, was "lifted" almost verbatim from Time in which it discusses the fraternity problem at Yale-the writer {'redicts the early passing of fraternities from the college campw, on the ground that their day of wefulness is over, and doses with the following paragra{'hs: "Observers of the death·bed scene now look ques· tioningly at the system's brothers, bIg and little, in other colleges and universities in the country. At most schools they seem to be strong and healthy where they are allowed to pre· serve their functions of providing food and lodging for their members."

"In speaking of the wes of fraternities, the Yale N.UlJ has only this to say: 'The only distinct and undeniable advantage of the modem fratemity is that it possesses all the facilities of a complete game of billiards.'

"Contemplation of the discnaJ scene forces the condwion that the highly touted fratemal friendship and benefits of brotherly love are not enough to keep the system alive. It mwt give up the ghost when it is no longer needed in the realistic business of aiding its alma mater to care for the students."

Thw does the "Barbarian" dispose of his ancient enemy the "Greek." May 1, a fellow Greek, deliver his funeral oration? I come to "praise him as well as 'bury' him."

There is rampant in the land today such a spirit of vandalism as the world has never pre· viously known; aU the more devastating and dangerow because it is universal, Men and women, boys and girls, educated and ignorant, seem possessed of a maniacal desire to tear down and cast on the scrap·heap, as outworn, everything old and tried. I feel that no one has the right to destroy an old custom or institution unless he has something constructive to offer in its place. Let these present·day iconoclasts have a care lest the debris which they leave become more unsightly than the images they would wreck.

The fraternities do offer to their members something more than good eating howes and pleasant recreation halls. They do develop and foster friendships that endure, and they do create a sense of loyalty, and a love of fair play that last through the years.

A fraternity house provides its members, while they are in college, with a home, pervaded by an atmosphere of culture and relinement. It is carefully supervised by a capable house· mother, and hy upper dassmen who appreciate the advantages of good breeding. For there is no doubt that the world demands much of a college graduate, It expects him to bave, not only a well-trained mind, but a pleasing personality as well. He may have the mind of a Socrates, but if he has the manners of a hoor and the appearance of a tramp, he has much prejudice to overcome before he can gain the ear of a Iistening world, As Doctor Libbey, one-time Professor of Philosophy at Colorado University, used to say to his pupils: "Man· ners JhollltJ count for five percent but they count for ninety·five." Good breeding and careful grooming are the outward and visible signs of an inward and spiritual relinement.

One of the first promises that is exacted of a fraternity pledge is a promise of loyaltyloyalty to the fraternity and loyalty to the individual memDers within the fraternity. He is taught that he can no longer act as an individual answerable to himself alone, but that all that he does reBects either credit or discredit upon the entire organization. He is taught to look for the good in others; to foster and encourage their virtues and to minimize their faults; to forgive, even to seventy times seven. He is taught also to be loyal to the institution where he is receiving his education; to do all that he can to promote the standards and ideals for which it stands, and to take part in the activities which it sponsors. He is taught to set for himself a high standard of scholarship, of morals and of personal conduct. If these quali. ties are outworn and no longer of value to hi college, then there is something wrong with the entire framework of our present.day civilization. I once remarked to Dean Hellems--a1so of Colorado University--that more was expected of fraternity people than of non.fraternity people, and he replie<l: ''That is true. You have the choice of the outstanding students on the campw and we expect you to set the standards." Evidently he thought the fraternities had more to offer than jwt comfortable living quarters for college stodents,

Nor are fraternities any longer purely social in character. The majority, if not all, provide feHowships, scholarships, and loan funds for the benefit of their members; and some of the older and larger organizations support projects that are entirely altruistic in nature, such as the Pi Beta Phi Settlement Schoof located in the Great Smoky Mountains in Tenn.,...., Fraternity people are often accused of exclusiveness and snobbery. To the first accusation , I would reply that the size is limited only by the quality of the students seeking membership and by the number the fraternity feels that it can readily assimilate. Any organization that IS too large becomes unwieldy and falls of its own weight. To the second accusation, I should say: the snobbishness of which the critic accuses the fraternity member is usually a figment of his own imagination. A person is ofttimes accused of being a snob when he is merely shy and reticent . However, there are snobs, and a snob is a snob wherever you meet him, either within or without an organization, but fraternity people recognize it as a quality that is cheap and ill·bred. If one is worthy, the world will soon recognize the fact, and if he is not, the less attention he attracts to himself, the better.

The trite statement that "man is a social animal" is as true today as it ever was. I doubt if the time will come when congenial spirits will cease to band together for mutual enjoyment of recreational and intellectual pursuits. It seems to me that it is much better then that college organizations should be national in scope in order to insure for them more careful supervision and a broader vision for the individual members. That Yale·s President, James Rowland Angell, recognjzes the va1ue of national fraternities in the social activities of a college or university, is evidenced by the following statement: ·"The fraternity problem is the one out· standing problem left over from the old Yale. Its answer is not easy ... but the fraternity has in the past years served as a very necessary part of Yale·s social life and I am confident that when they have made sufficient adjustments to the changed conditions of the college plan (referring to the English plan of small residential colleges), these adjustments will satis· factorily take care of the enduring social interests of the undergraduates."

It would seem too bad, and to say the least, if a college which, in the days when it was struggling for its very exIStence had welcomed fraternities to its campus as the best means of housing its students, promoting its social life, and upholding its standards, should, when it had become financially able to build its own dormitories, cast aside those fraternities, with their expensive equipment, as an institution outworn.

Whenever our critics and detractors can offer a better and more democratic system for fostering and regulating the social activities of present.day college life, we Greeks, with the good·sportsmanship our fraternity life has taught us, are ready-paraphrasing one of our American poets-to fold our tents like the Arabs and as silently steal away HALLIE CHAPMAN CoLLINS , Colorado Alpha

INEZ SMITH SOULE

TH E h eart and soul of Convention! The person who typiJies all the things for which Pi B<ta Phi stands-Inez Smith Soule. Sixty-seven years of life in the fraternity , watching it grow from twelve girls to 25,000, from ooe little chapter of pioneers aenon g college women, to seventy-ntne--these have been hers . To those who have had the privi . lege of knowing her at previous co nven t ion s s he has brought new inspiration this time wit h her unJIagging interest in every activity of the fraternity. What the girls of today think of her can best be given in the charac· terization of her that appeared in the Pi Phi Geyser, the daily of thIS Convention. "Indescribably individualistic is Inez Smith Soule. Any attempt to transfer her enthusiasm, her keen humor, and her lovable charm into the category of printed words fails from the outset. There is an inner radiance expressed by her actions which finds no other medium. Conventions would indeed be strange with · out her. Her enjoyment of them cannot fail

to increase another's pleasure. She has missed very few such gatherin/ls because she has found in them such delight.

Pi B<ta Phi's earliest hope for attaining the beautiful and the good seems crystallized in the lives of our Founders To them we owe the dream and the realization of the mighty group founded as J. C. and now acclaimed as PI B<ta Phi ."

EMMA PATTON NOBLE, CONVENTION GUEST

AN INTBIlESTING ligure at Conv<ntion was Emma Patton Noble, Grand Presid<nt of the fratemity in 1878. She has a most kem and vivid interest in fratemity affain, and has kept in unusually close touch with active For a year she was chaperon of Neb Beta chapter, a,od for years has been with Oklahoma Alpha in the same ca· pacity. At Stillwater she bas made for herseU a line place in the life of the college com · muoity.

Mrs Noble brought with her to Conv<n· tion a letter of greeting which Kappa Kapl;'a Gamma sent to Pi Beta Phi Coov<ntion m 1878. This Grand Council sent to the Conv<ntion of Kappa Kappa Gamma, which followed ours in the Yellowstone, and it was read in the Kappa Convention, and published in their Convention paper, the Dart . The letter follows :

"Kappa Kappa Gamma sends greetings, with best wishes for the prosperity and happiness of your members. While the key does not unlock the door into the same mystic circle into which the arrow of I. C. pierces, yet each opens the way to the higher walles of life which lead into gardens scented with the sweet perfume of sisterly love, where bappy groups bound by silver cords of friendshIp hand in hand are striving to attain a

Cheight upon which personal independence shall build the citadel of virtue and womanly chancter which shall be the keynote of the citadel arch. May the arrow of I. C. pierce every diflirulty and the key of Kappa Kappa

Gamma unlock every barrier in the way, until our lives may be spotless in the sunlight of the coming mom."

The letter is perhaps the lirst evidence on record of Panhellenic spirit.

TIlE SOCIAL SIDE OF CONVENTION

By RUTH WILSON, Kentllcky AJph.

ONVENTION was a colorful pageant portrayed by actors who perrorm for the love ot their art, against a backdrop that could have been conceived only by the inspired hand of nature, the master artist.

It was a drama that would have made the most "hard·boiled" dramatic critic, jaded from too many Broadway openings, rush .rellmell to his typewriter and enthusiastically pound out a review replete with superlatives and pierced with exclamation points.

The real enjoyment of a play often begins when one first thinks of purchasing tickets. For me at least this great show of Convention began with a scrap of paper, a Western Union telegram, to be exact, rrom the Grand President. It asked that a private secretary, harassed by the mere thought of degree re-

quirements, schedule cards, and Iiliog cabinets, shut up her shiny Royal and go "Out where the West Begins," to pinch-hit for the P. V. P. who was unable to take advantage of a well-eamed trip. Like a snowball sliding down hill that increases its size with each revolution, just so did each new scene in the picture increase the pleasures that went to make up the whole It gained momentum when tiny golden arrows, bobbing up in the station of Chicago, made me realize that soon would be staged a revival of old friendships with perhaps an " all star" cast. Then , too, there was the possibility that just around the stage wing some new friend would appear to take the center stage for a moment at least.

train reservations and keeping track of luncheon engagements for college presidents, you ' ll appreciate the glorious enjoyment that was mine when I realized that there was in this old world such a man as Mr. Max Goodsill He was the fairy god father who, with one wave of the wand, could make trains and busses and meal tickets appear like rabb its f rnm a silk bat. I recommend bim whole · h eartedly to all conventions Add to this the f ac t that in the lottery of room numbers I drew that of a chamling Iowa delegate, and yo u have the perfect atmosphere of Conventi on. as far as I was concerned. I revelled in being treated as though I were a cross between a n infant in need of tucking into bed, and a college freshman who, having failed tn bring h er fancy dress costume, looked longingly at her roommate's green pajamas with obvious resuIts--a Chinese coolie!

This was typical of the spirit that permeat ed the " checkerboard of nights and days" when we lived and worked and played for Pi Phi . It was the background agamst whi ch were reflected the gay colors, the lights, and the shadows that fOmled the setting. I bave only to shut my eyes in order to breathe again that pungent, pine·scented air and see Bash · ing before me the kaleidoscope of events . The curtain rises, and there is Frankie Curtis with her hat tied rakishly under her china style copied by the shy little unorganized bride we met on the yellow bus, after her husband had remacked that he thought our Frankie looked " kind a cute ." I can hear now the rollicking tunes of the songs we sang when the Province officers played hookey and went gallivanting off to the Canyon. I can feel anew the keen disappointment that was ours when our well·rehearsed harmony of " Springtime in the Rockies" fell on deaf ears because our audience was centering its attentions on Old Faithful Inn's delightful dinner when we drove up at seven o'clock that evening. Now I am with Epsilon Province, slipping stealthily down Grand Council Hall to serenade the officers . How chic our superiors looked in their variegated negligees as they emerged from their rooms bea ring boxes of candy from Miami. We are still wondering whether the candy was meant as a reward for services rendered or was in the nature of "hush money."

Can you forget those clever little favors that decked our places each evening at din-

ner? Many of us realized that hours of work were back of them and that the members of the hostess chapters had spent time and talent in their preparation. The tiny salt bags , the note books, the candy "U's," the miniature boulders secured by th e Colorado .Alpha girls in a rythmi c illustra tion of " Bend Down Sister," the Indian tepees made from pointed drinking cups, aU proved concl usi vely that Pi Phis a re ingenious. I can hear the babel of tongues in the dinin g room , th e mingling of the soft Southern drawl that economized on " R's," with the brisk, peppy, staccato ton es of the Northern girls, and over all the voice of the Province offi cer that on ce emerg in g would " Carry M e Back to Old Virg inia ."

Then there w as Stunt Ni g ht with its dis · play of talent and its even greater display of eJpril de corpJ Let us not forget the un · tiring efforts of those boys who helped Mrs Purduoo get the proper lighting on Louise Richarslson's profile in the MiddJebury Col· lege stunt . Truly we saw our Louise in a new light! The stage lost a great come dian when education won an English instructor!

Early morning scenes invariably were char· acterized by the mad scramble to wheat cakes and sausage with disappointing results to our waistlines. Midnight saw most of us unwilling to seek our beauty sleep. Instead we listened intently to the glamorous tales of the far West told in the buffet to the accompanim ent of ice cream and coca-colas .

Let us take a peek at the Fancy Dress Ball. There were Mickey and Minnie Mouse cavorting mischievously around the bustled skirts of the delegate from Missouri Beta, who carried off first prize in her wine and silver blue costume that transported us for the moment to Monmouth CoUege in the days of ' 6 7. There too was a white satined Indian princess. By no stretch of the imagination could we conceive of her as ever having " bitten the dust" with the other braves. There were dancers from the steppes of Russia , warm in their white fur and spangles . There were Hula Hula girls from the South Seas who shook tantalizing grass skirts. There were Arabs sweltering under their grease·painted complexions and crepe·hair beards , who glanced enviously at the maidens clad to aU appearances only in barrels! The senoritas came from California, a dozen strong. And even though the delegate from Kentucky did get in line with them by mis-

THE FEBRUARY ARROW

take, she was cosmopolitan enough to join lustily in their song, " California, Here I Come," instead of moaning low, "Weep No More, My Lady." Over there marched Pierrette, such a darling one with snow white hair Mter all where did we get this false notion that all Pierrettes should be sixteen year old coquettes? Personally, I like mine tempered with a few years of wisdom No prettier one could be found than our Pi Phi winn e r. But h ush! Here comes a memlxr of the Northwest Mounted Police as straight and as trim as a James Oliver Curwood character! It is difficult to realize that it is Manitoba .Alpha on parade.

Our Convention pageant would not be complete without at least a glimpse at the K appa Province party in honor of the Grand Secretary I lugged my Mexican hat half way 4cross the continent just to show an interested family what the well-dressed Texan is wearin g this season. Well planned , little Mary Bywaters! We had a grand time.

There ar e so many scenes I'd like to mention : the Arrowcraft Exhibit where were displayed th e gay quilts, the cunning fans, the useful bags ; Recreation Day, when the mermaids carried off the silverware with little effort ; the midnight feasts behind closed doors and the breakfasts for Grand Council ; the Chapter Exhjbits, where galley ships and silver dollars and speedways held us spellbound.

Now the scenes are shifting and the spotligbt is on the Banquet. Here was the climax

we can never forget Long after time has dimmed the other scenes and relegated them into the limbo of forgotten things, the banquet will remain brightly before our eyes. Old Faithful, just to prove its name, added the proper touch to an already appropriate setting. Its beauty cannot be put down in words; neither can its spirit be discussed. Only through participation in it could one possibly realize its perfection! I shall carry with me as long as th ere are links in the chain of my arrow , the memory of Miss Onken's voice as she called out the names of our beloved Founders. The wine and blue candles will forever bum brightly in the secret places of our hearts!

There was for most of us an epilogue-the trip home. To me it provided an opportunity to know both " Mother" Noble and Fae Huttenlocher.

Yes, th e curtain is down. The applause has died out and the audience is slowly wending its way out of the th""ter. The actors have removed their make-up and have folded their costumes and put them away. Perhaps they will be resurrected for another performance two years hence. But in the years to come when Pi Phis gather in the "Green Room" of the theater of memory, they will recall those gay, glad, happy days of the summer of 1934 when

"Each ray of sunlight and each drop of rain, Seem to me like the gold and the pearls of my Meow . Until I die, Pi Beta Phi, My heart belongs to you."

DISTINCTIO N F O R ACTIVE GIRL

THOSE of us who were at Convention will remember the delegate in the wbeel chair, EcIith Reed , Minnesota A, who contributed much to the interest of the sessions. A student in the Engineering School of the University of Minnesota, to graduate next June, she drew so fine a plan for the $2,000,000 bridge to be erected across the Missouri river at Omaha that it was accepted as the prize winner in a contest. Her work in architecture should win her future recognition. The plan was drawn wbile she was in bed last spring recuperating from the automobile accident which finally sent her to Convention in a wheel chair. Sbe is one of the most prominent gi rls on ber campus, and president of Minnesota A.

Honor to Our Grand President!

By INEZ WEBSTER, Illinois t.

INA setting altogether fitting and proper on June 7, 1934, Amy Burnham Onken was given the degree of Master of Arts, an honor she richly deserves. It was an occasion which will linger long in the memory of those who were privileged to have a part of it.

It was very fitting that Monmouth College, where Pi Beta Phi was founded, should be the one to express to the world appreciation for a woman like Miss Onken, who has been the fraternity's inspiration for so many years and such an exponent of high ideals for college women.

In the auditorium, where the commencement exercises were to be held, Pi Phis from near and far were gathered. A place was reserved for members of the fraternity and we joined the Illinois A chapter, Mrs. Stoolman, Grand Treasurer, Mrs. W<bster, the Province President, Mrs. Palmer, foerner su-

pervisor of chapter accounting, active girls from Illinois B-t., and a1UDlDle from six or eight chapters.

As the program opened with the organ march, the audience rose and the procession filed by-Dr. McMichael, President of the college for many years, led the black·clad men and women in caps and gowns. He was followed by the speaker of the day, the candi dates for degrees of honor, including Miss Onken, the trustees of the college, the faculty, and the graduating class.

First carne music, then a splendid address, the distributing of diplomas, student bonor awards, conferring Doctor of Divinity Degrees upon three men, and then Pi Beta Phi's moment had arrived. Miss Potter, Dean of Women, who bad held the same office at Northwestern University when Miss Onken was a student there, stepped forward and

presented Miss Onken. Adding a final touch of S<!ltiment to the occasion, Dr. McMichael had asked our founder, Miss Campbell, to place hood upon Miss Onken. It was an Inspiring moment, one which may never come again. What pride and satisfaction that founder must have felt!

We were reluctant to leave the auditorium, but out on the campus found "appy laughter and chatter, men to take pictures, friends to greet, things of interest to see. and new Pi Phi sisters to meet. The day ended with a Pi Phi luncheon, and we all basked in reflected glory, when Miss Onken came in with arms full of Bowers, her face wreathed in smiles.

In presenting Miss Onken , Dean Potter said:

"MR. PRESIDENT:

I have the honor to present, as a candidate for the honorary degree of Master of Arts, Amy Burnham Onken, a woman whose fine abilities are and always have been devoted to good things.

Miss Onken received her Bachelor's Degree from Northwestern University in 1908

We of Monmouth College know her best through her interest in student activities, particularly in the fraternity world. She believes in college men and women-in their power, in their purpose, in their ability to and their desire to maintain those high standards and fine ideals of which she is ever a staunch defender.

For many years a member of the Grand Council of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity, Miss Onken is now that organization for the fourteenth year as .ts Grand President.

Under her guidance the standards of scholarship of her fraternity have advanced in marked degree. I can but believe that the results of this effort have had their etIect on college students in general.

Her leadership is largely responsible for the definite stand which her fraternity has taken on moral questions involving social contacts and habits of living. In this, too, I can but believe that she has made a significant con· tribution to the college world.

I am happy to present Miss Onken as a candidate for the honorary Master's Degree:'

OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED TO MEMBERS OF PI BETA PHI

Pauline Arnold, Illinois Delta, vice of the newly·formed Market Research Corporation of America, suggests that there may be many Pi Phi alumnr who would be interested in t.aking cue of occasional uSi$flments of research work for her company in their own communities. The company assists advertiSing agencies and manufacturers in the collection of information from consumers--the people who actually buy advertised products.

Briefly, the requirements for becoming a of her field staff are : an inquiring turn of mind, and an ability to interview strangers and get information fcom them. It is an excellent type of work for the house wife or the business woman (or a Pi Phi husband or son) who has free time to 611 with an unusual and interesting occupation.

The Installation of Ontario Beta

P,PHIS arrived by train and automobile in London, Ontario, October 28 and 29, and were cordially grmed by the members of Up· silon Iota Sigma and their al= group. Their outstanding hospitality and enthusiasm added tremendously to the inspiration of the two days we spent in London.

Immediately after lunch Sunday, Pi Phis and those to become members of Pi Beta Phi by the next evening, met in a private room in the hotel Many of us met Miss Onken for the first time and felt the strength and friendliness of her personality. Through the pledging, initiation, and brief installation ceremonies when Upsilon Iota Sigma became Ontario Beta of Pi Beta Phi , the Grand Presi· dent showed her real interest in each indio vidual girl. Miss Onken was ably assisted throughout by Mrs. Ray H. Finger, Beta Provo ince President.

Tea was served immediately following pledging, and our acquaintances becanne real friendships as our association with each other lengthened. While the newly pledged Pi Phis heard the constitution, members from Ontario A and Michigan B prepared the attractive chapter bouse for initiation under Miss On· ken's and Mrs . Sipberd's direction. Mr!. Sipherd, a resident of London until a sbort time ago, was formerly the only Pi Phi in the city and was instrumental in making the in·

stallation of Upsilon Iota Sigma possible. Later, many of us went to the homes of the excited pledges to spend the evening. Initiation began early Monday morning with the ceremony /irst performed for Mrs. K. P. R. Neville, wife of the Registrar. I am sure that those of us wbo had partici. pated in several initiations before thiS one, and who will attend more in the future, felt that this one at London would always repre· sent what all ideal ceremonies should be. Our experience here will always occupy a definite glace among those we have enjoyed in Pi Beta hi. .

The installation was formally completed by six in the evening, and at 8:30, seventy·eight Pi Phis assembled in the hotel dining room for the traditional banquet. There were nine chapters of Pi Beta Phi represented, including Ontario B with their twenty actives and twenty allllDfllr. Gretchen Edcel, chairman of ar· rangements [or installation, acted as toastmistress. After toasting the King, and singing "God Save the King" and the "Star Spangled Banner," Miss Onken welcomed the new chapter into Pi Beta Phi fraternity. Marjorie Dampier, first president of Ontario B, then briefly addressed us. aara Hall Sipherd, Iowa B, the untiring efforts of Upsilon Iota SIgma to become a chapter of the national Pi Beta Phi fraternity. Mrs. Neville next re·

THE FEBRUARY ARROW

peated the many reasons for their desire to be installed, and related many details of in· terest concerning the relation of the active chapter in London to their university. After Pi Phi songs had been sung, the banquet was appropriately concluded with the "Pi Phi An· them." We who were welcoming the new chapter realized even more keenly by the end of this day the opportunities in a national f ratemity in general, and the worth of the

possible relationships to eve ry chapter in pac· ticular.

All who participated in the install ation of Ontario B owe a debt of gratitude to Miss Onken, Mrs. Finger, Mrs Sipherd , and our new Pi Phi sisters for the inspiration we received in Our turn while with them in London.

UNIVE R SITY OF WESTERN ONTARIO

HIsTORY

Western University, since 1923 , by Act of the Legislature, designated University of Western Ontario, was granted in 1878 by a Provincial charter the right to confer "D e· grees in Arts, Science, Literature, Law, Medicine, and Engineering." Actual instruction in Arts was begun in 1881, but in 188), because of financial stress, the Arts department was dosed, though its sister faculty, Theology, continued jts existence uninterrupted. The Medical School opened its doors in 1882, and has not missed a year since, though its organization was completely changed in 1912 when it was taken over by the Board of Governors of the University from the cOffi{'any of medical practitioners who had onginally owned it Theology without Arts proved disappointing, so the Arts College resumed its functions in 1896. Since then its pr0!1ress has been consistent and steady, although .t passed through some trying years before the authori · ties of the Church of England in Canada. under whose .,gis the whole University has been from its inception, sought the cooperation of the Muniapality of London to help maintain the life of the institution . In 1908, this partnership, begun in 1906, was further changed so that the control now rests jointly with the City of London and the Province of Ontario. The lirst independent Faculty of Public Health in Canadi was instituted in 1912.

From the date of reorganization in 1908, Huron College, the real mother of the insti· tution, has been alliliated with the University. Other institutions within the fourteen coun· ties mentioned in the enabling acts of 1908 and 1923 have been admitted to the privileges of affiliation. The institutions are: Assumption College at Sandwich, under the order of

St Basil; Ursuline College at London, under the control of the Ursuline Sisters ; Waterloo College at Waterloo, Lutheran ; and Alma College at St. Thomas, United Church. The lirst three of these affiliated colleges give the complete four. year course leading to the de · gree of Bachelor of Arts The last has junior college status and confines its instruction to the lirst two years of the general arts course. Everywhere the University now receives the status of a standard undergraduate institution . The Medical School is rated " A " by the American Medical Association. The degrees in Arts are accorded the highest recognition of the Department of Education of Ontario and are accepted by the leading graduate schools in the United States as readily as their own B.A . degrees. The University enjoys the same colonial afliliation possessed by any of her sister Canad ian institutions .

DESCRIPTION

The University of Western Ontario is situ · ated on a hill about a mile from the city limits. The main cacnpus is approached by a long avenue which crosses the Thacoes River. The campus consists of two hundred and seventy acres of land including a golf course (leased to the London Hunt and Country Oub) which adds considerably to the beauty of the site. It is described by unprejudiced observers as unsurpassed in natural beauty elsewhere in Canada. Adequate space for outdoor sports is provided.

]lefore the erection of any buildings on the cacnpus their location was carefully planned . There are already three buildings, line exam· pies of collegiate Gothic architecture. These are the arts building, the science buildin$' and a new library opened this fall. The stadIUm is an important part of the campus equipment

TRUE SERVICE TO HUMANITY

SUCH is the work of Gladys Henry Dick, Nebraska B, and ber husband, also a doctor, George F. Dick.. For years they have devoted their lives to the study of the causes, prevention and cure of scarlet fever, and their

DR . GLADYS DICK

success has been so distinguished that last fall they were summoned to Edinburgh to receive the coveted Cameron Award, given "to the person wbo, in the course of the live "F!-rs immediately preceding, bas made any highly important and valuable addition to practical therapeutics."

Between them, they bave solved the problem of scarlet fever, removed its terror from

Tchildhood. Not only have they identilied the cause of the disease as a fonn of streptococcus infection, but they have devised a test to determine whether a child is immune or sus· ceptible to the disease . Further, they have carried their researches to the point of developing a vaccine to 'prevent the fever, and an anti·toxin to cure It if it has already developed

The prize awarded to them has only twice before been given to an American by the Senatus Academicus of the University of Edinburgh , once to Dr. Harvey Cushing of Boston, and once to Dr. George Minot and Dr. William P . Murpby, also of Boston . It has been given to only the most rarely distinguished foreigners, such as Madame Curie, (or her work with radium .

A PI PHI REVIEWS THE CURRENT THEATRE

By MARy EMRICH VAN BUREN, liIinois Bela-Illinois Epsilon

HE theatre holds magic! Drama is a human instinct universal through the centuries. Imagination is our playhouse, where we satisfy our need to play actively, or to live a play through the trained ability of an interpreter.

Beatrice Edmonds, California A, bas won distinction for berself in the lield of interpretative drama. A cultural and intellectual environment , world travel and a wide back.-

ground of training and experience bave all bad their sbare in contributing to the success of her most interesting career. Her dramatic ability was lirst recognized during her student days at Stanford University wbere she worked under the direction of Gordon Davis in the theatre worksbop be established there. After receiving ber B.A. degree, sbe returned to her home in San Diego, California, where, for six years, she participated in Little Theatre

work, playing leading parts in more than twenty plays.

New York sends so few plays on country· wide tours that the West Coast is denied the opportunity to share in present day drama. M.ss Edmonds foresaw that the current New York theatre might be best reflected by interpretative play reviews. These reviews, as eventually presented by Miss Edmonds, per· form delightfully that much needed service of presenting the current plays that are most worthy of attention. At Holiday time each year, she spends a month in New York at the height of the theatrical season. From the plays seen there, she selects her annual repertory. Each series of reviews, consisting of five plays each, presents a symmetrical and complete survey of the season in the theatre. Her keen powers of observation and judgment in anal)'2ing the dramatic situation in the metropolis, as well as her ability to make the play she chooses live when she reviews it, have gradually won for her a solid reputation and foUowing on the Pacmc Coast. So compelling are her character delineations that one feels as though the actual performance has been witnessed.

More than twenty-five different clubs and cities through California have taken this method of bringing the theatre to their audiences.

Her repertory has included such outstanding stage successes as "Mrs. Moonlight," "Mourning Becomes Electra," "The Breadwinner," "As Husbands Go," "Hay Fever," "Another Language," "Animal Kingdom," "Dinner at Eight," "Biography," ''The Late Christopher Bean," "Alien Com," "Ah Wilderness," "Mary of Scotland," ''The Lake, " and ''The Pursuit of Happiness." These titles all testify to the caliber of play Miss Edmonds interprets.

That Beatrice Edmonds should succeed in an art, which, she herself introduced to California audiences, is not surprising. She has radiant youth, beauty, a charming personality, and an intelligent conception of the lirnita·

DEA TRICE EDMONDS C"li/.,.i. AI,h.

tions met with jn the interpretative review of a play. Critics have been most gratifying in their praise of her art. Havrah Hubbard , Critic, Lecturer, and Little Theatre Director says of her:

Extmded experience has developed in her a keen sense for dramatic contrasts, skill in sharply defining characters, freed om in emotional expression. and ability to project exactly and posiuvely that which she wishes to conver. This technical proficiency, combined with a vOice well trained and finely modulated, a charming personality, and compelling stage presence, make her a play reviewer of gmuine worth and uncommon qualities

Beatrice has a Pi Phi sister, Maxine Edmonds Gildred (Mrs. Theodore), Oregon A, a tJ. r mother and a tJ. T father.

THE WORK OF DR. MARY HARRIS

.. RB -EDUCATION for normal life," might be the name given to the system used at the Federal Institution for Women, at Alderson, West Virginia, in dealing with women who have for some reason or other gotten so far out of step with civilization and the social system as to be convicted of a crime against society. The system and its results are attracting international attention, SO great has

been its success in restoring these women to a normal participation in life.

Much of thiS success is to be attributed to the work done by the director of the Institution, Dr. Mary Harris, Pennsylvania B. Her appointment as superintendent came to her as a climax to a career devoted to similar work among unfortunate women. She brought to it a broad sympathy, a thorough training, and a

DR. MA1lY B HAllRIS

delightful personality that carried with it leadership and originality of ideas.

Dr. Harris is the daughter of Dr. John Howard Harris, for thirty years president of Bucknell University, and there she was initi -

them the Bryn Mawr &hool. After this s h e studied abroad for two years.

When she returned to this country, h e r friend , Dr. Katharine Bement Davis , was Commissioner of Correction of New York City, and through her, Dr. Harris was appointed superintendent of women at the Women's Workhouse in New York, where she remained for three years. She went from there to become Superintendent of the New Jersey Reformatory for Women . Then came the war, and she became a worker for the government in connection with the detention facilities for women arrested around the camps . From that time she was superintendent of the State Home for Girls in New Jersey, until March 1925 , when the lirst appropriation was granted by Congress for the Feaeral Institution for Women, and she was made its lirst superintendent.

There she has remained until the present time, carrying out her unusual ideas Tor the treatment of women prisoners with distinguished success .

ated into Pennsylvania B chapter After graduating there, she received the degree of Ph . D. , from the University of Chicago . For some years afterwards she lived in Baltimore, teaching in preparatory schools for girls , among

of living. The women live in home·like cottages, with a room for each, and these they may make as attractive as they please The surroundings are all attractive, the buildings more like those of a college than anything else, the grounds weU cared for , the views in every direction over the beautiful Shenandoah county inspiring Its location is a high plateau ia the midst of hills, with the Greenbrier Ri ver below, forty miles beyond White Sulphur Springs; a setting of rare naturalloveliness. Dr. Harris believes that the beauty of the country has much to do with the spiritual awak ening of the women under her carc.

An institution entirdy for women , under the management of women , and one to which no woman may be smt for a second time! If she fails after a fair trial to benefit by the work done for her, she cannot return to profit again by its advantages. Tbe school can ac· commodate only five hundred and its privi . leges cannot be given to those wbo show an inability to profit by them. Tbe type of women who come under the care of the institution , while not numerous , are those that can cause devastation and demoralization beyond any other group unless it can be restored and in· duced to take its place in the ranks of the "average citizen."

MDr. Harris herself says, "Let us not be frightened by the cries of coddling the pris. oner and deterred from doing the best we can to restore this perplexing minority to normal life. Unless we maintain correctional institutions of such a character that they create respect for law and government instead of breeding resentment and a desire for revenge, we are meeting lawlessness with stupidity and making a travesty of justice."

A woman of real culture and great charm, her personal example must do much for her charges . Sbe bas gathered about her a staff of women of similar ideals and intelligence, and their aim is to teach above everything else babits of health , industry, and thrift, and to develop a desire for success in life after their charges bave gone out into the world. They allow every possible liberty of action, in fact there is only one small barred building and most of the women released go out on parole .

The experiment has succeeded . Of two hundred and seventy -seven women wbo have been released on parole, only two have had their paroles revoked-a statement which spealcs for itself, and which pay' tribute to the greatness of spirit of the woman who has so truly helped these women back into life .

ARGARET STOUGHTON ABBLL (Mrs. Charles A. Abell) of the Appalachian Forest Experiment Station, AsheviIle, N.C., is one of the only two women foresters in the United States Forest Service Mrs Abell was initiated by Illinois B in 1927. Her sophomore year she entered Iowa State College where she took the regular forestry course graduating in 1930 with the degree B.S in Forestry Her appointment as Juaior Forester at the Experiment Station followed soon after her graduation.

Mrs AbeU says that in forest research work about one-third of the time is spent in the field collecting data on silvicuJtural characteristics and on tree growth and yield; the other two-thirds of the time are spent i n the office compiling and interpreting the data and putting the results in the form in which they will be most useful. While she does aot spend as much time in the woods as most people

believe, she thoroughly enjoys the time she spends in the field and is also interested in the computational aspect of the ollice work .

Scholarship

IN AN endeavor to work out a morc equitable system of grading the chapters upon scholarship, the Olairman of the Committee on Scholarship is preparing two new plans for the consideration of Grand Council and the chapters. A questionnaire, to be mailed to eacIi chapter, will detecmine the method preferred by the girls.

Any system depeuds upon the availability of the necessary information on all campuses; the chapters have already received with their yearly supplies the revised scholarship blanks

Nwhich request the necessary data for hath of the proposed systems. The returns on these blanks may determine both systems to be impracticable. The new blank, National Scholarship Committee, Blank No.2, replaces the two blanks heretofore used.

The committee on scholarship desires to be of every possible assistance to the girls and will bend every effort toward helping them make this an outsbnding year for Pi Phi scholarship.

"I don't believe anyone realizes the signillcance of Pi Beta Phi until she is moved about the country and settJed in strange cities as I have beeit. To feel that one is welcome on an equal basis among people of similu ideals and habits in a new location is the most comforting feeling. 1 do not think tbat Vie have ever appreciated its possibilities."

Beekman Tower (Panhellenic)

A NNOUNCEMENT of a change in name of Panhellenic House, New York City, which in the future will be known as Beekman Tower (PanheJJenic), is now being made by tbe Board of Directors of the Panbellenic House Association to f ratemity groups throughout the country. Miss Sophie P. Woodman, representing Pi Beta Ph, on the Board of the PanbeJJenic HoUS<' Association, is taking an active part in shaping plans in · volved in the chaneg of name.

According to the announcement of the Board of Directors, Mrs . A. Barton Hepburn, president, one of the prime reasons for mak109 the change is the necessity for increasing local patronage which should result in a fu · ture financial retum to the fratern ities whose original support made the HoUS<' possible

Tbis step was taken after each individual director had taken the matter up with bee respective featemity group, each of which considered the matter carefully before the change was made. It was not without a pang of regret that those who built the Panhelleruc House and worked so unceasingly for its success finally voted that the new name was for the best interest of the HoUS<' and of the participating groups.

The announcement of the Board of Directors adds , however, that the policy of the PanheJJenic will not be changed, that the same high standards which always have prevailed will conti nue as before, and that the status of the P anbellenie's relationship to the

fraternity groups will remain the same. The Beekman Tower (Panbellenic), will continue to be the recognized fraternity beadquarters in New York City for the accommodation of and service to fraternity members throughout the country. In addition, it will continue its functions as a center and meeting place for al= grours and for all active chapters in the vicinity 0 New York.

The New York City Panhellenic Oub also will continue to maintain its headquarters at the Beekman Towe r (Pa nhellen ie ) , and the annual Founders ' Day luncheons , banquets, regular monthly meetings, bridge parties, teas and other functions sponsored by fraternities, active and alumn re, will continue to be held at the HoUS<'

In the announcement which is being sent over Mrs. Hepburn's signature on behalf of the Board of Directors to fraternity groups and ollieers throughout the country, apprecIation is expressed for the support accorded the Panbellenic House Association by the f rater· nities of the country as follows: " In the spring of this year we appealed to you for the pur· pose of re.enlistang the support of all fra· ternity women and undergraduates in the Panhellenic and since then, as shown by the decided improvement in the patronage of the House, we have had a most generous response, so that we now feel very much encouraged. Your continued interest and support are of vital importance to us ."

The Utah Pi Phis more than lived up to the promise of hospitality they made to Pi Phis who went through Salt Lake on the way to and from Convention. They met trains, they kept the chapter house open most of the summer for any who could stay aU night, they served meals for those who could stay over only between trains, they even got up at five o'dock in the morning to get breakfast f or those who must be on their way early! They gave more than one dinn er party . like the o ne for Ruth Barrett Smith and Taylor Alford, when the two officers stopped over on their way to Yellowstone. That was a wonderful night. Most of the chapter were at the train to meet them and take them out to the house. There fifty actives and aJumnz were present for dinner, a cooky -s hine perfect in every detail, and how they did talk about Convention! The Utah A Sextet sang the s ongs they were later to make so popuJar at Convention , and the two bours were swiftly over. All together trooped to the train-the Y ellowstone special for the Park help, the first through train to go up, and at the station they sang again-so sweetly that the mmlbers o f Gene Quaw's orchestra on their way for their summer engagement at the Canyon Hotel, were attracted. applauded loudly-and ended by ,Promising to take care of the two officers on the journey . They kept the prom ise. too . even to supervismg their breakfast at West Y ellowstone the next morning!

The Settlement School Committee takes pleasure in announcing Mrs . Eunice Weaver , Illinois Z, as director of the School for the coming year. Mrs . Weaver has been house mother for Montana A for the past few years, aod during that time has end eared herself to many Pi Phis. She is a graduate of the Uni

versity of illinois. Mrs. Weaver's daughter Dorothy Graham (Mrs. Robert) also a member of Illinois Z, belongs to the West Suburban Alumn", Gub of Chicago . The committee received. the of Miss Ma.ryalice Chaffee during convention. As Miss Chaffee asked to be relieved of her responsibilities at once and had gone to Yellowstone planning not to return to Gatlinburg,

the committee accerted her resignation. Mrs. Weaver was one 0 the personnel of (oaven · tion , and on the last day four of the committee who were also present at convention talked with her about the directorship of the School. After some consideration, she consented to serve as head resident until definite arrangements could be made, and after a few weeks at Gatlinburg, accepted the definite appointment as director. The committee sincerely appreciates the efforts she is making in behalf of the work in Gatlinburg.

Mrs . Emma Pattengill, whose Arrow Craft exhibit was of absorbing interest to visitors at Old Faithful, also made many friends at convention. In December Mrs . Pattengill dosed a year of devoted service as manager of Arrow Craft. At this time the death of a member of her family cal led her home, and she returned to the schoo l for only long enough to /ill Christmas orders and close her books. She is once more in her home in Ames , Iowa , where her daughter is 3n active member of Iowa Gamma. Mrs. Pattengill undertook her work at Gatlinburg at a very difficult time. A letter from her, printed elsewhere in this department, shows her apprec iation of the mounta.in people she dealt with and of the worth of the school. As her successo r, comes another Ames Pi Phi, Mrs. Esther Weaver Snow. For a number of years Mrs Snow's home has been in Los Angeles where she has been an enthusiastic member of the alumn", club, often handling Settlement School goods_ She has had exceptional preparation for the managership of Arrow Craft, for she was trained under Mrs Mary Atwater, one of the foremost weaving teachers in the country. In addition she has had teaching aod comme rc ial experience. With her daughter, Jane, who is in the second year of high school, she motored from California to Tennessee in time for the New Year.

From Iowa comes Ethel Irene Mitchell, the new supervisor of weaving. Mrs. Mitchell has her B.S. and M.S_ degrees from Iowa

State CoUege, but she had completed the norma! training course for elementary school teachers at Illinois Teachers' CoUege at Macomb, Illinois, and had taught school six years before going to Ames _ Her time witi be largely spent in supervising the weavers who work for Arrow Craft and in/lanning with its manager artides to be sol in the shop. Mrs_ Mitchell has written enthusiasticaliy of the mountain women and of hee interest in the school and the beauty of its surroundings

William King is back as principal of the school and teacher in the high schooL In addition, he has charge of the boys' athletics, training the teams and taking charge on trips. Much of the life and spirit of any school depends on spotts, and In Gatlinburg the interest in games not only fills this need and helps to keep up school attendance, but it furnishes wholesome school and community entertainment _ The news of Mr _ King ' s retum was received with great enthusiasm in Gatlinburg.

Highly recommended from among the 1934 graduates at the University of Termessee comes Mary Elizabeth Spencer. She is teaching home economics.

Missouri r again has sent a teacher to the

Settlement SchooL This year it is Dorothy Douthit, who has second and third grades. Dorothy comes with two years' experience in teaching in Oklahoma and a very generous interest in her wock . Along with these new members of the Pi Phi family in Gatlinburg, there are others wbo have been at the School for some time . Mr King would not consider himself new, nor would Jean Handley, although she has a new position. Jean is doing high school work now, filiing the position made vacant by Pauline Whaling's marriage to Jack Huff. Mrs. Dullield has charge of the shop in the Mountain View Hotel. Veatress Parton assists at the main shop. Maggie Parton Murphy and Alice McCarter weave special orders. Mrs McDonaJd h eads the household department. Lucy Field , Texas A, remains as bookkttpe'c, and Virginja Moore as nurse. Don Smith teaches agriculture and manages the farm After a summer term at the University of Tennessee, Eleanor Brabson and Miriam Swann are back teaching the primer dass and the first gl1ldes, respectively Mattie Huff, Iowa r , continues in the fourth grade and her sister, Stella, has fifth and sixth .

""'.f Mrs. Duffield chaU of the visitors to ber abop.)

As I tum the leaves of my guest book with its soft handwoven cover and its pages filled with interesting names and pleasant memo· ries, I recall the young son of a Pi Phi mother whose loyal little soul kept him from buying elsewhere even when he Iound we had noth· ing in the way of a souvenir for small boys Each day h e would come to the door and sing out, "So this is the shop where there's nothing for little boys. " Finally, io desperation , he asked, " Wh at's the cheapest thing in the shop?" When I told him, he pulled fifteen cents out of his pocket and handed it to me saying, "Give me this mat. I'll give it to Mother for a surprise when we get home." 1 can still hear hIS sweet little voice, as he walked down the hotel lobhy, chantiog, "So this is the shop wh e re there 's nothing for lit· tle boys."

So, on through page after page of names, many of them those of our country's best known citizens!

What an inspi ration it is to be thrown with a woman like Mrs. Charles D. Walcott of Washington, who before her marriage was Mary Vaw< of Philadelphia! She is seventy· three, walles like a major general, doesn 't smoke, doesn't drink, uses no make.up, yet with the loveliest, freshest complexion and eyes that just hold one, they are so clear and sparkling and intelligent. Her gray hair combed straight back and twisted in a small knot, she dresses simply but always io good taste. A woman of culture and breeding who entertains and is entertained by members of the best society in our country and moves as a treasured member in the scientific circles of Washington. During his lifet.ime, her husband for many years was io charge of the Smithson· ian Institution io Washington, of which she still feels a part. She relates many ioteresting events of their life together She has painted five volumes of wild Bowers, Rockies and Par Western Bowers, which were printed by the Smithsonian Institution The deluxe edi · tion sells for $100 a volume. Hers was a labor

of love and took her twenty years to paint. She pawts the lIowers life size and while they are fresh . She never draws an outline, but with her brush and magic skill, paints them as they are, all the time talkiog to you in the most entertainiog way. A very decided char· acter, no patience with some of the present day doiogs One thing she absolutely tells you most emphatically, " You are welcome to come and talk with me but no cigarette smoke is to be puBed over me or io the room where I am workiog ." She first came to our moun . tains at the request of Horace Albright, who at that time was director of all the national parks Mr. Albright thought she might find some specimens in the Great Smokies that were not among the ones in her collection. She rises fairly early and if the morning is fair, she goes for her ride through the woods and off the beaten path, takiog a guide with her. The afternoon is spent in painting. Of· tentimes the entire day is spent at her work. She is not only an artist but a very practical busioess woman who has managed large farming ioterests She always travels io her own car with her trusted chauBeur.

On her last visit Mrs. Walcott brought Mrs . Ickes with her for her first visit to the Park. Here is another \,,:csonage whom I wish I could describe WIth her simple, unaffected manner, she is a real person, who accomplishes thiogs , and always has, gracious and cordial to everyone, with a zest for life. She's an inspiration to be with. Both she and Mrs. Walcott had a thoroughly enjoyable time, go ing to the church one Sunday afte rnoon to hear "my mountain folks" sing hymns. They stayed until it was over, were introduced to all the singers, and thanked them for the mu· sic Mrs Walcott is very, very fond of Mrs Herbert Hoover and visits the Hoovers in their California home. She gave me an order to make one of my afghans for Mrs . Hoover. I have it ready. I tried to make it look like California-gold and sunshin e. Hope sbe will like it.

Another very charming person is Mrs. JO· sephus Daniels. Just one of the lovely, sweet, motherly sort of persons, with no effort at being stylish but a personage one instinctivcly fclt, was just a very devoted grandmother who came into the shop to get something to send to her little grandsons. Again I had to confess that I bad nothing for little boys She had waited for me to get back from dinner and open the shop_ Once previous to this time , she and her husband were brought to our shop by one of my friends . It was Sunday, and so

be would just have to count it up for me. I said, " Isn't it wonderful to have such a bookkeeper" and my generous custom« said, "What about the customers?" and I said , "Oh, I'll tclI you that when you have begun." Imagine my tdling them to please step out in the lobby while I wrapped up the packages (my shop is too small (or my stock and cus · tomers at the same time) . I dug the Guest Book out of a comer, for I haven't a place to put it, and asked them to wlite their names in it. You know m en don 't fuss around lik e

I unlocked the door and let them in. Mr. Daniels stayed the courteaus length of time and departed. She, while busy picking up things here and there, said, "I just hope he will stay out, because he doesn't want me to buy things on Sunday and I'm going to do it anyway."

Anoth« time just lately while I was waiting on some customers, Major Eakin came to the door , with three awfully good looking men and introduced them. I didn ' t catch the names at first, hut found out mighty quickly they wanted to buy. I got so excited that I pulled things out right and left and when one of them began walking around and picking five dollar coverlet squares off the line and pewt« plates off the tables and scarfs out of the drawers, I just turned to Major Eakin and handed him a paper and pencil and told him

women , when they pay they do it in a hurry. After they had gone and I had their names and saw inscribed there, "R. G. Tugwell," I went dizzy and thought to myself, the Presi· dent's is not the only "brain" that needs "trusters." Mr. TugwclI really has an unusu· ally charming personality and is very good looking indeed. Doesn't look a thing in the world like the pictures I've seen of him. The only ones I've seen looked like Dillinger or some other cut throat. He was only in Gatlin· burg about half an hour and spent a part of that time to come into our little shop and buy generously. Thank you, Mr. Tugwell.

A few nights ago I was tempted to stay home and not go back to the shop as I was not feeling up to par and there seemed so few guests in the hotel. But they do say th«e's a kind providence that watches ov«

children and fools, a nd so I ca me back. ADd how thankful I was! I h ad only been bere for a few minutes when my attention was at· tracted by a little man coming down the line, followed by a very good looking younger man. They entered the shop, and there followed roue men and one woman. The little man was English-sir, somebody-the lady was from near London They, with the other members of the party, were a group of famous people interested in the housing question and had come from Eng land , Germany, and the States to consult with a T.V.A group at Norris They bought generously. Sir Evin was very pleasant and laughingly showed the others a brilliant red lipstick towel he had purchasednot that he had a use for it but just for the beautiful color_

I am now looking forward to the 17 to the 20 of October when the American Forestry Association b ea ded by the Secretary of Interior , Harold Ickes ; the Secretary of Agriculture, Henry A . Wallace ; the Chairman of

T.V.A ., A . W . Morgan; and E. B. Cammerer, Director of National Parks (who by the way is not only a very delightful man but a good customer of ours) meets. This meeting is to be held in Knoxville, but they will pay a visit to the Smokies and, as this is Park Headquarters, I'm expecting a visit from them.

October the 8 is to be a great day for Gatlinburg. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park stamp is to go on sale . First Day cove r, only in Washington and Gatlinburg. Already there are great piles of letters and requests to the postmaster for first day stamps One collector that I know of has sent in request for 10,000. We expect a crowd in that day.

Numbers and numbers of Pi Pbis have visited the sbop and school this season. My tongue is hanging and my brain is fagged from the constant telling of the School and the work the Pi Phis are doing in this community.

NOTES FROM MRS. WEAVER'S LETTERS

Writing shortly before the ARRow went to press, Mrs. Weaver said:

"The dormitory boys aDd girls (there are of them) came home from the state falf at Knoxville drencbed but saying that they had a wonderful time. Virgil Ogle and Elmer Helton took first prize for a self-feeder that they made for hogs. Earl Reagan took second for sharpening a hand saw. He and Bruce Whaley made a chicken coop which took third l'rize. Arrow Craft did not enter anything this year_

FOURTH GRADERS

"The boys are now working on the stone walks and getting the gardens in shape for winter. Previously, they studied cement mixing preparatory to flooring the bam under Don Smith's supervision.

"Last week a man came from Knoxville and arranged to give uS a drop curtain and a set of stage scenery for the assembly hall. Space for advertising on the curtain will be sold, and the proceeds will pay for the

gift. It will be ready to use for the operetta. "Gatlinburg is to have a little theatre within the year. Squire Maples is to build it between the post oBlce aod his house. The movies will be there aod perhaps dancing. When you come next spring, you will lind a soda fountain in the log cabin beyond the churrh.

" There are 292 children in school here this year."

ODD ITEMS FROM THE SETTLEMENT SCHOOL

The Settlement School nurse, Virginia Moore, last year had eleven schools under her supervision. She inspected 1544 children and visited 371 of them in their homes, while 654 called on her for professi onal services.

At the Jenni e Nichol Memorial Hospital at the Settlement School, typhoid innoculations were given to 210 persons; 47 children took toxoid for diphtheria; 52 youngsters had Schick tests to determine their diphtheria immunity; 134 were vaccinated for small pox. Dressings were done for 513 school children and members of the community.

LETrER FROM MRs PATrENGILL

Mrs. Pattengill wrote in July:

"There are about sixty·five women doing our weaving, besides the following spedalized workers contributing to Arrow Craft:

Mary 1. Ownby makes our chairs and stools, using a crude foot lathe and turning out works of art. The foot lathe, called boom and treddle, is the most antique in existence, and is used in the Orient.

Arlena McCarter takes great pride in bringing in several dozen colored split fans each week.

Mrs. Ogle's contribution is rye straw fans. Harrison McCarte r makes the best baskets in Gatlinburg and can make 'All you ' ns can use.'

Aunt Sally makes the "Aunt Sallies" and brings t,pem in when it rains.

Mortie Bales makes good willow trays and coasters.

Mrs. Hatcher makes our beautiful quilts.

All our Number 1 hooking, which induded hooked rugs, is done by Mrs. Armstrong; and

the Number 2 hooking, by Mrs. Fortenberry. Both women do superior work in color and design.

Lizzie Lemons does line tufting.

Elmer Kear makes our artistic fireside brooms.

Penland Weavers and Potters supply us with the beautiful hand hamm ered pewter on which we not only make a 35% profit, but which enhances the beauty of our weaving.

Mr. Lamb makes for us handdipped bee's wax candles and honey jugs filled with good mountain honey.

Wood carvers make reproductions of Early American furniture from native cherry and walnut which adds a great deal of interest to this beautiful furniture.

A careful survey shows fifty-two families entirely dependent on us for a living; but 120 families are supported in a measure by the schooL"

"I believe Ollr fraternity is doing ao industrial work that is about ten years ahead in its scope. T.V. A . has ahead of it a program very similar to ours. Some of their have interviewed us and in givlOg us their ideas show that they are planning to do something that our fraternity has done for twenty years. The influence of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has changed our village. We have an opportunity here, the extensiveness of which few realize. Our tourist trade is four times as great as it was a year ago--to keep abreast of it all we must have a large vision. One of the big problems is to anticipate what is ahead and to be ready to meet whatever is required of us."

No one denies that "A house divided against itself cannot stand," but how many of us forget or disregard this? .

A clique is one of the surest and ways of dividing a house and a growing sense of discontent and unhapptness

cipient of the medal this ,ear, Honorable Frances Perkins, Secretary 0 Labor, was unable at the eleventh hour to be present at the dinner given at the Chi Omega Convention because of certain emergencies in the labor field. Mrs. Roosevelt, who was to present the medal, then asked that the medal be presented at the White House in the autumn. At the dinner, Miss Mary Vail Andress of the National Achievement Award Committee read a statement prepared by Mrs. Roosevelt regarding Miss Perkins and added remarks on behalf of the Committee. Elizabeth Dyer of the Com· mittee spoke in behalf of Miss Perkins.

Dr. Hinkle read a paper that was a brilliant historical review of woman's struggle to be "herself. Mrs. Fraser of the Committee had the medal in her possession and delegates and guests availed themselves of the opportunity to see the beauty and symbolism of the medal, the design for which was made by Miss Frances Grimes.

"Students who are the most active in campus activities are the students who tend to receive the highest grades in academic subjects, while those who participate in no campus activity tend to receIve the lowest grades" is the condusion that is arrived at by Dr. O. Myking Mehus in an artide on "Extracurricular Activities and Academic Achievemeot" that appears in "The Journal of Educational Sociology."

Many chapters point with pride to their B K members, but few realize that the honor for real achievement belongs to the chapter which has no ·outstanding brilliant girls, but which can show an even scholarship record which is above the average. That is a true expression of fraternity spirit, for it is the contribution of every girl to the welfare and the advancement of her chapter. The "best" fraternity on any campus is the one which most nearly lives up to the ideal which motivated the founding of all our educational institutions-love of learning.

ANNA LYTLB BRANNON

ANNA LYTLE BRANNON. former Grand President. died suddenly September 3. 1934 of a heart attack at the summer borne of her daughter in Michigan She is survived by her husband. Dr. Melvin A Brannon. and his two daughters. Mrs. L . V. Ballard. of Beloit. Wisconsin. and Mrs. Benjamin Bristol. of Foxboro, Massachusetts.

The following story of her appeared in the ARROW for May. 1933:

Anna Lytle Tanoahill Brannon (Mrs . Mel · vin A ). Nebraska B a member of 4> B K. was a graduate of the University of Nebraska. and pursued graduate work at Wellesley Col · lege and the University of Chicago. She held the positions of head of the department of English at Agnes Scott College. Georgia. head of the department of English Literature Milwaukee Normal School. dean of women and head of the department of English, Lewis· ton State Normaf School. Lewiston. Idaho. and dean of women and professor of English. Beloit College, Beloit, Wisconsin .

She was a delegate to the Madison Wis· consin, convention, and has attended the New Orleans. Berkeley and two Olarlevoix co nventions. She held maoy offices of the Fraternity including that of Grand President and has served it most faithfully. She was a member of many organizations induding P.E.O.. Daughters of the American Revolu · tion. Daughters of the American Colonists. and the American Association of University Women.

She was married to George William Tao· nahill. attorney. in 1913. Mr. Tannahill died in 1917; and in 1923, Mrs. Tannabjll mar. ried Melvin A. Brannon, Chancellor of the University of Montana.

Some of her most distinguished work was done in Montana. Dr. Brannon says of her work there. "She was my able adviser in countless educational problems. She was asked to recommend Deans of Women and house-

mothers in various tmits of the University of Montan2. She was a much sought adviser in sorority administration. and hostess at un · numbered social functions for educational gatherings. I know well that any success of

mine during ten and a half years as chancellor was largely due to her wise counsel, her gra· cious leadership in educational and social reo lations. and her unselfish devotion to the welfare of the young people. As Dean of Women at Beloit. it may truly be said of her that she did for women at Beloit College what Alice Freeman Palmer did for the young women at the University of Olicago. In both cases the work required orgaoization and de· velopment from the foundations of social graces. womanly ideals. and rultura1 educa· tion. In both cases a level of achievement was reached that enriched the life of hundreds of worth·while young women during and after their college years."

The appreciation of the A A.U.W. for her service to them is best shown in their Resolu · tion. which we copy here:

"Be it resolved that: The Montana division of A .A.U.W.. in biennial confermce

MRS . BRANNON

sembled, express its deep sense of sorrow and loss due to the untimely death of Mrs M A. Brannon, who as Sectional Director of our organization throughout its first six years was our constant inspiration . None are so keenly aware of her outstanding ability as the members of the Montana Division, whose privilege it was to realize what a rare and fine inOuence she exerted over those who knew and worked with her. Much of the progress which our state division has made was due to her wise and sympathetic counsel and leadership ."

A Pi Phi who loved her wrote of her:

" Her charm was the kind that Mrs. Coolidge has, a heart-warming fellowship that seemed to be just for you, but was shared by all she met. She was certainly pure and honest and just and lovely, and those of us whose lives touched hers, even slightly, have been benefited and enriched-and after all, what more can be said in praise of a life? All these things and many more we know of her-the Pi Phis have lost something that was very precious to them."

Pi Beta Phi can ill spare the devotion of such wonderful women as Anna Lytle BrannOD .

LUEITA MELENDY BASSEIT (Mrs. H. M_), charter member of Iowa A was one of Pi Beta Phi's oldest and dearest members. She passed away in Minneapolis, Minnesota, July 27, 1934.

THE COOKY-SHINE

By ELVIRA JONES, Oklahoma A

Before I donned the arrow and the wine and silver blue, I puuled and ] pondered tiB my head was sore clear through, Just what on earth those gay Pi Phis, those girls so very fine, Could be a doing at a Pi Phi Cooley-Shine! I wasn't very old you know-just scve:ntren ] guess, And so I Jet my curiosity just drive me to a test.

One day I met a handsome man, a stalwart Sigma Nu , And so I asked him candidly, "Please Sir, tell me, do, With just a word, a paragraph, or even with a sign , What goes on within the walls of a Pi Phi Cooky·Shine?" He laughed a bit, then swelled his chest, and with a twinkling eye, He said. "Oh, that's a weird occasion for those girls of arrow fame-They gather 'round a cauldron pot with witch, and magic games, And when the lights are low and dim each girl will fall in line, And renew her charm in the cauldron pot at the Pi Phi Cooky-Shine."

One day a Beta Theta Pi, with a diamond in his pin, Came home to visit brother and so I questioned him. He said to me, "I guess you know that I'm a Pi Phi man And I can surely tell you jf there's anybody can! You see a Cooky-Shine is really just a perky Pale Pink TeaWhere all the Pi Phis practice 'shiniDg up' to Beta boys like me,"

But still I wasn't satis.6M-.1 wanted more to knowAnd so I asked the question almost everywhere I'd goOne day I met a K.K.G" a friend my sister knew, And when I asked her what she thought that they'd most likely do, She raised. her head an inch or two, a little more or less, And sweetly said, "Why. that, my dear, is Pi Phi foolishness,"

Each person that I chanced to meet explained in fashion .fine, But never did I really know what made a Cooky·Shine. But soon I went to and I donned the wine and blue, And I asked a Pi Phi member jf she'd tell me what she knew. She took me in a far off room and whispered very low, "My dear, the time has really come when you may surely know That a Cooky-Shine to a true Pi Phi is occasion very dearWe're having one next Tuesday Dight and you must be risht here."

I guess I registered my surprise when I through the door To find that all about the room were Pi PhiS on the Boor! They'd thrown their cares and sighs away and each one wore a smile, The food I saw set round about would reach for 'bout a mile-'Twas then I knew a Cooky-Shine is never cut and dried, Is never formal, fixed, nor feamed , but just a custom tried1 learned it makes no difference 'bout the cookits, brand, or line-It jwt takes food and Pi Phis to make 3. Cooky·Shine!

The last major college event before school closed for the summer was Mothers' Week-end. At that time the visiting mothers were entertained at a May Festival where Spurs and Mortar Board pledges were tapped. Gertrude Neuon and &tty Francisco were chosen for Mortar Board and Joan Widcersham and Dorothy Loquvam for Spun. Marion Bailey was honored by being chosen in the group of outstanding Senior women who attended the May Quun.

The c1imu: of the year was the initiation of Barbara Kimbrough on the last day of school in order that she might attend Convenion , This was especially significant since Barbara its the 6rst daughter of Gladys McCroskey Kimbrough whose name stands first on our chapter books,

During the summer, improvements were made both on the campus by the addition of a paved street in front of the Adriiinistration buildins and further work on the new Chemistry building, and in the chapter house where several new J?ieces of furniture were added and others recovered. This Improved the appearance of the house and made entertainill8 more comfortable

With a successful cushing season completed, the chapter is now in the midst of the many events of the faIl. Bernadine Royer was the chairman of the committee which planned for open house. A definite schedule is arranged and the men's groups go from one women's house to another and dance for a few minutes; then on to the next: house.

The celebrations at Homecoming and Dads' Day are built around the football games with Oregon State and Idaho, Mant n B .s are planning to attend the game with the University of Washir1gton which is to be played in Seattle.

The enrollment this year was: increased by the registration of 1300 freshmen. ThIS necessitated an addition of many new professors, The old students were helped to return to school throua:h jobs made possible by P .B.R.A. funds. These jobs have been divided up in order that as many students IS pouible might tKelTe some fiaandaI aid.

Effort! of the chapter are being concentrated on the ColI,&., RIIIMI which will take place soon.

SANTA MONICA CLUB

The Santa Moni ca Club holds their monthlY' meeti!l8s on the second Tuesday of the month. We have found that it is more convenient for the majority of our members to attend in the evening so we serve dessert and coffee and then proceed with the meeting. As a rule bridge is played unless a pro&ram has arranged for the evening.

Our benefit for the Settlement School was given at the Ca lifornia Delta house: and it was a great SUCces5 in every way. We had a dessm bridge and a fashion show of lovely beach apparel, both enjoyw. by o ne hundred and fifty guests.

In May our oew officers were elected, NeU Pierce as president and Ma y Dunbar as vice-president. Our aim this year will be to con tinue the goOd fellowship we have always enjoyed and to continue to build up our member· ship as much as possible. At our September meeting we renewed our Pi Plii friendships and beard the Convention new'S from our three: members who were thc.rc.
