Sho rtly th e r eafter the great war cn m e, and most of th ese men e nlisted In various branches or the service. 'Vlth the few remaining muslchlns to serve as a nucleus of a band, othe r workmen, omce men and department h ead8, were Induced to begin studying the various Instruments o( the band and a C()mpetent director was employed to Instruct and direct them.

UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO MEMORIAL TOWER
By KATHARINE BAlL, Ontario A
The University of Toronto War Memorial, which was unveiled on June 5, 1924, is in the form of a square tower between University College and Ha rt House. It is built of grey stone in Gothic sty le with four pinnacles at the top. The well-known Magdalen Tower was us ed as a model and the height is exactly the same, 143 feet from the ground to the top of the pinnacles, m a kin g it the highest point on the campus. The m a i n .. archway is thirteen feet wide and twenty feet high with a road r unning through it. Over the arch is sit uated the muniment room which will conta in the records, pictures, publica-
MEMORIAL TOWER ti ons, trophies and tablets showing the history of the University in the War. Above this again are the belfry and cloak room, as yet uninhabited. The f ocus of greatest interest for those who knew the men to whose memor y the Tower has been built is the memorial tabl e ts and the arched co lonnade covering them. The wall supporting the tablets i s 48 feet long over all. From it a carved tracery stone ceiling arches over the three tablets that bear the names and is supported by four s t o n e co lumn s. On the cen t er, above the names , appears the University's coat of a rm s, and in the left space the foll owi ng d edication is inscribed:-
O"lfrvzaSITT

On the right of the coat ot arms appear the quotations;"AND SO TH1DY PASS ED OVER Al'''!) ALL l.'HE TRUMPETS SOUNDED FOR l.'HEM ON THE OTHER SIDE." "JUSTORUM ANUIAE IN MANU DEI"
Below these inscriptions are cut the names of the fallen, which total over six hundred, with the rank of each, his initials, British decoration if any, and the unit with which he last served.
The wall at each end of the arcade bears a tablet six feet wide and arched in similar fashion to those of the main wall. On the south end are the emblems of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales in relief, and underneath is in scribed "In Flanders Fields" written by Colonel John McCrea, a graduate of Arts and Medicine. From the north end the words of Milton, taken from "Samson Agonistes" look down.

Such is the method adopted in perpetuating in the memory of the living the sacrifice of so many of the University's sons. If, as is hoped, a chime of bens can be achieved, then to the beauty of the Tower will be added the charm of sweet music, and these together will not fail to stir the hearts of future generations at the University of Toronto.

During these years she has been an active member of the Chicago College Club and the Young Women's Auxiliary of th e Evanston Woman's Club.
She early became interested in the vocational opportunities for women and this int er est was increased by considerable travel both abroad and in this country and Canada. As a restlli of stu dy and research in this field, a volume she has written on vocations will appear from the press during the coming winter. In addition to this her magazine articles are published from time to time. While in Paris, where she lived some time after her marriage, she attended lectures at the College of France on French History.

A PI PHI DUDE RANCHER
By KATHERINE SIMMONDS, 666
Out in Montana, in the Rockies bordering u pon th e northeast corner of Yellowstone Park, liv es a Pi Phi who is known to hundreds of s unlm er tourists, and it's-hard-to-tell-how-many l\1ontana natives, as one of the best girl riders and o n e o f the most chamling ranch hostesses in the
I've been told that Bess Randall Erskine, Ames '20, was always in demand at the Iowa Gamma chapte r house while she was in coll ege If she wa s n't wanted to play for a crowd of stu dents hungering for the l ates t dance music she was being urged to attend a dance or to join a bunch of hiker s, or to help compnse a song for some impending entertainment. In spite of these distracting influen ces, s h e m ade a good schola s tic record and incidentally more fri ends than many girls make in a lifetime . Folks knew Randall lived on a Montana ranch, but not many of them guessed that she make a horse four times her size g et down on its knees and bow to her. If her accomplishments as a horsewoman had been as wen known as her irresistible piano music, there would have been numerous rodeos on the campus and all the would-be broncho busters in the university would have been flocking to the Pi Phi house for instruction! Her last months at Ames were pretty well , monopolized by

Clyde Erskine, Phi Delt athlete and Glee Cl ub so loist, and as soo n as s uch minor obstacles as graduation and army se rv ice had been met and li ved through and safely pa ssed, the number of sta lwart Montana ranchers was increased by one ex-Iowan after a wedding at the O. T. O. ranch-house.
Now Mr. and Mrs. Erskine assist Mr. and Mrs . Dick RandaB with th e ope rat ion o f one of lhe la rgest "dude ranches" in the Northwest, and Clyde and B ess (reme mber we are talking about Montana wher e la st names are quicky forgotten) h elp to entertain scores o f summer tourists eac h seaso n.
Next to her father, Bess is the best riding inst ru ctor o n the ranch. Of course no one at the O. T . O. would care t o compete with Dick Randa ll veteran mo unt a in eer and rancher, known a ll ove r Montana and ""yam ing and in many another state, for his hor se man ship, hi s knowledge o f the Greater Yellowstone Countr y and I,i s quaint, lova ble personality.
But Bess can ride! She s its h er saddle lik e a vete r an and her wonderful western boots are in the s tirrups more of t en tha:o on the ground whit e the "dude" tourist season is on. She tak es gro ups of eager ran ch guests high into the mountains almost eve ry day, showing them how to enjoy every nl o ment of the ne w experience, revealing one beautjf ul secl ud ed region after another to their unaccum s tomed eyes.
In the ' evening, before a roarin g fire, Dick Randall t ell s st ories about the old days, grizzly bear yarns and 'tales which mak e the eyes of children and gro wn f o lk s alike g row large with excitement. Then Bes s goes t o the piano and s h e and Clyde s ing ranch songs in which everyone finally joins and between dancin g and singing the evening is gone in n o tim e.
Last year the Erskines deserted th e O. T. O . for sixt een days to conduct the official saddle -hor se t our of Yellowstone Park turned over to the ranch to handle by the Yellowstone Park Camps Company which had form er ly conducted it. I was fortunate enough to be a member of the party.

Grand Loop Road which all Yellowstone tourists take, driving a big truck in whi ch the camp outfit was packed. But we horseback riders left the r oads and automobiles far behind, winding off into the wilder sections of the Park on the famous Howard Eaton Trail. Bess led the way, with "Happy Jack," the wrangler, and the "dudes" who made up the rest of the long line of riders learned Yellowstone Park as few tourists do.
Late in the afternoon of each day, the "Otto gang" Cas we called ourselves after hearing the ranch brand mis-pronounced seve ral times) eme rged from the horseback trail to some good camping site nearer to the main road, where the truck with its camp equipment had arrived many hours before. Each night we found camp ready for us as we galloped through the trees with a long, lu sty "Hello-o-o-o, Otto!" as greeting for C lyde and the other boys .
If a YeUowstone H otel or Camps Company dance was within reach, the saddle-horse party often descended upon civilization for an evening, enjoying the change from the outdoor life for a few hours, yet glad to get out under the stars again with a long night's s leep in cozy tents to l ook forward to.
All of the regular sights of the Park-the geysers, the boiling lakes and stream s, the colored ttrrace s of the hot springs, the roaring caverns and plopping the waterfalls, strange fonnations am! the marvelous Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, we saw in turn, and beside these, many wonders which are too far from the beaten path for the average touri st to reach.
The "dudes" really learned to ride, and we became just as much at home in the saddle as we were on foot . Our appetites were remarkable to behold, especially after we discovered that the regular delicious camp fare was often ela:borated u pon by delicacies Bess had learned to make at college---eakes and fancy desserts of all kinds which are never supposed to be a part of the menu of a camping party !
Adventures with the friendly wild animals of the YeUowstone, wonderful kodak pictures, long evenings of song about the camp-fire, fishing of the most soul-sati sfying kind, and any amount of fun every hour of the day-these made the Erskine's sad dle horse t o ur the most thrilling experience most of us had ever enjoyed_
PI PHIS
N ext summer Bess Erskine will be guiding another long line of riders up and down Yellowstone mountain trails. She expects to take her party from the ranch at Corwin Springs, Montana, in July and perhaps a second one in August.
Needless to say, Pi Phis are especially welcome , and the Erskines are hoping to make at least one of their parties this coming summer a collegiate fraternity and sorority special! Every preparation is being made at the ranch for a bigger and better tour than that of last year, and letters from Bess are full of references to new tents, new horses and even new "dudes" already signed up for the trip. In the meantime those of us who learned to love Yellowstone Park under the guidance of the O. T . O. family last summer are exchanging wistful letters and wondering whether or not we will be able to resist doing just the same thing next summer which we did last July. As alumni and alumnae of this utterly delightful "Otto gang" we envy you, all who may take the trip next summer--envy you so much that we may manage to be with you yet!
THE PAN HELLENIC CLUBHOUSE IN NEW YORK CITY
The dream of a Panhellenic Clubhouse in New York City has assumed outlines of reality. This Clubhouse is the biggest undertaking ·that has yet been attempted by the women's fraternities, and the New York Panhellenic Association has expended lI1uch time and effort in "selling the idea." That a Panhellenic Clubhouse in New York is needed and wanted is proved conclusively by the fact that o[ the s ixteen fraternities interested in the project, [ourteen have comp letly taken over their qu otas of the common stock. The other two groups, with over half their s tock so ld, because of special cond ition s within th e ir fraternities, have been granted an extension of time, but are pledged to complete their quotas in the near future. The stock has been sold to individuals, to active, and to alumna! chapters, and, in many cases, considerable amounts have been taken by the national fraternity organizations . Approximately $90,000 has been s ubscr ibed , and the 10% cash payments made. Th is money is being held as a tmst fund, and will not be used until all s t ock payments, both common and preferred, are completed.
The next step is the sale of the preferred s t ock. The comm on s tock has been sold through the fraternity groups, but the sale of the preferred stock will be handled by the h ou se corporation. Rochelle Rodd Gachet, Alpha Omicron Pi, has been employed as exec uti ve secretary by the Board of Directors of t he hou se corpo ration to give he r full time to organizing the work for the sale of the preferred stock, and to he ad up the development of the general work on the project. Temporary offices have been secured Benefit theatre performances, and other means of rai s ing money are being use d to finance this preliminary work.
The preferred stock campaign will be laun ched in the fall of 1925. Preferred stock need not necessarily be owned by fraternity women. It is expected, however, that a considerable portion of it will be and of course, the corporation is co unting on the suppo rt and cooperation of fraternity wom en to interest others in the project .
There has been such a demand for a Panhellenic Club that it has been decided not to postpone the formation of a Club until the Clubhouse building is up. A plan of organization for a Panhellenic Club is now being worked out , and a membership campaign launched. It is hoped to secure a large aparlment as a temporary home. This would serve as headquarters for fraternity women, and the fraternity groups, and would furnish living quarters for a few girls. The house corporation would also have its offices at the Club. Membership in this Club is now being opened up to the original 1,000 girls who backed Ihe home project in the beginning, and to holders of the common stock, without initiation fee. The annual dues have been fixed at $10. If the membership campaign yields quick results, it is hoped to have the Club ready for use by fall or possibly even earlier.
All fraternity women going to New York, who are intereSled in the Clubhouse project, should look up Miss Gachet at the offices of the house corporaticn, 105 \Ve.t 40th St., Room 7CfJ.

By MARY BADGER WILSON, Col"mbia A and Nao/V York B
Hero-worship, like ances tor- worsh ip, may be a good th in g or a bad thing. If a proper respect for o u r ancestors in spires u s to live up t o their ideals, fami ly pride is then a commendab le q uality. But if w e r es t lazily under the branch of a family tree, meditating in a so rt of fat contentment on our s uper iority to pe rsons who have n o family trees, we soon develop into useless snobs and very great bores. So with hero- wors hi p.

Un less our be li e f in o ur national her oes in spi r es us to translate their dreams into ac tua liti es, o ur faith is a dead faith.
Every year, on February 22, we make a brave gesture of devotion to the Fathe r of our Country. Yet it is a little disturbing to remember th at within the m em o ry of persons now living Mt Verno n , the beloved h orne of our great hero, was falling into
TUE ARROW OF PI BE'fJ. PHI
actual decay and that the government of a gratefu l (?) country refused to appropriate the money necessary fo r the purchase and restoration of the estate. Mt. Vernon was only saved by the determination of a littl e band of patriotic women who by years of sacrifice and hard work rai sed the required amount and bought Washington's home for a rich but forgetful nation. It is even more disturbing to remember that in his will Wa s hington left a legacy to the Government which was to f o rm the nucleus of a fund for establ i shing a great national univer s ity, and that a lthough Congressional comm ittees have s lept over the proposition for a century or more, yet nothing has ever been done with plan o r his money.
And there was anoth e r dream dear to Wa shington's heart,that was the erection in our capi t al city of a great "church for national purposes, such as public prayer, thank sgiving, funeral orations, etc.," to be "assigned to the specia l use of no particu lar denomination or sect, but equally open to all. It will be likewise a shelter for such monuments a s were voted by the last Continental Congress for those heroes who fell in th e of liberty; and for such others as may be decreed by the voice of a gratefu l nation." Thus did Major L'Enfant desc ribe the church which George Washington de s ired, when under the directi o n of the first President he drew up the plans for a proposed "Federal City." But a hundred years passed and this dream of the man who was Ufirst in the hea rt s of hi s co untrym en" remain ed a dream. It was in 1891 that the initial steps were taken toward the erection in the capital city, .of a National Cathedral , which it wa s felt would realize Washington's plan.
This cathedral is being built by the Protestant Episcopal Church. but it has been kept quite free from any s pirit of narrow ch urc h affiliation. It is to be a "House of Prayer for All People." Men and women of all church affiliati ons have become vitally interested in its erection. In every state in the U nion and in many foreign land s there are members of the "National Cathedral Association." Visitors to Washington, who see the cathedral in process of building and who see what it already means and what it will mean in the future as a great national symbol, feel a desire to take some part in the wo rk . Thcusands of them have joined the Cathedral Association and by sma ll annual gifts are helping
W A81HNGTON CATHEDRAL
to put in place those massive stones which are rISIng one upon another on the hill of Saint Alban. Thus Washington Cathedral is national not simply in name but in fact. From Maine to Texas and from California to Rhode Island, there are men and women who watch its progress and who believe in it s purpose. When one speaks of a national church, there is always danger of confusion. Every true American instinctively shrinks from any idea of uni o n between church and state. But there is no such idea involved in the erection of a cathedral church at Washing · ton. It is nati o nal in its sense that it is to be a symbol, a worthily beautiful symbol, of the Christian faith on which America was uuilt; in the sense that it is to be a Temple to which men of all faiths may "go up" in times of national thanksgiving or national dbtr"ss to offer prayers to God; in the that it is to be .America's \Ves tminster Abbey, where the citizens of America who l13ye achieved great things in life, Jl'ay res t after death with p erpetual honor.
The pioneers, who carved America out of the wilderness, i13d to suffer hardship and brave danger that they might win tht right to worship God according to their own consciences. But it is to be remembered that whatever their method of worship, all of them worshipped Cod . Our nation was built on faith. When that faith wavers, when our ideals change and we place material values higher in the scale than spiritual values, then the America we have loved will be already dead. It is to keep that true American spirit alive that t he cathedral builders at Washington are lifting high a great symbol of faith and idealism. It is to be a very beautiful symbol. The style of architecture will be 14th century Gothic-Gothic at its best before ambitious builders began to experiment in ""stheties, before "beauty for beauty's sake" supplanted the older Gothic ideal of "beauty for the glory of God." In the purity of its outlines, the richness of its decorations, the peace of its spaciousness, the yearning aspiration of its arches and towers,-in every aspect of its beauty it will Ii ft up our hearts, that whatsoever things are lovely and whatsoever things are true, we shall think on those things. This is the great purpose of a cathedral-to lift up nlen's hearts. A cathedra l speaks in the universal tongue of beauty so that its message needs no translation . Even the aliens who have

It is sometime s sa id that cat h edra ls are m erely an imitation o f the past, that they have no place in o ur pres ent age. In the nineteenth cent ur y thi s might have been asserted with some truth for the nineteenth cen tury was distinctly an age of individualism. But a black gulf lies the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries,-the hideous gulf o f a w o rld war. And we fo und that th e bridge of individualism would not carry us over that chasm . The twentieth cent ury believes not in isolation but in co-operation ; it believes that it is far more important to w o rk t ogether f o r what is ri g ht than to fight over some petty littl e individual "right s ." So that a cat hedral, which belongs to no s m all group o r congregation, whi ch opens its doors and it; pe w s fr ee ly to a ll wh o wi sh to e nte r, whi ch ri ses above the narrowness whi ch some tim es hampers the work of sma ll er, parochial church es, whi ch gives its beauty with bo th hand s t o anyone who has the eye to perceive b eauty, regardless of creed or nationality, and which through ils age l ess maj esty can cont inu e so to give from genera tion to generation,--,;uch a cathedra l is pec ul iarly sympathet ic t o the spirit of the twentieth ce ntury.
Many Pi Phis, wh en t hey in Washington fo r th e Eastern Conference, included Washi ngto n Cathedral in their s ightsee ing ex pediti ons. IVT any oth ers are familiar with it becau se of the pictures which were published all over the coun try when it was chosen as the la s t resting place of America's great war president. But all P i P his are, I ftel, p r epared to appreciate it in a very special se nse . Becau se we know the beauty o f coope rati on , because we have learned th e po wer of a symbol in focusing o ur purposes and our affect io n s, because, by the very nature o f o ur ow n association, we ha ve discovered that we can stand t ogeth er on essentials an d forget all the little non-essential diff erences,-for th ese reasons Pi Phis can u nderstand just what the cathedral builders at Was hington are trying to do.
And for these reasons, too, I have purposely spoken not so much of the actual cathedral fabric as of the spirit which infuses
the beauty of that fabric. The pictures which accompany this article will give a far better idea than any words could g i ve of the surpassing grande ur of this Amer ican Temple.

\Vork of setting in place the sa r cophagus fo r the la te President Woodrow Wilson in the Bethlehem Chape l of Washington Cathedral ha s been completed.
The sarcophagus is recessed in the south wa ll o f the chapel in a space e ight feet wide and eighteen feet s ix in c hes high , with mass ive arches mee ting above a lead ed glass interi o r window behind. Thi s space is filled with sa rcophagu s , grill, canopy and £l ags .
The sarcophagus itself is a warm cream colo r limestone with almos t a golden gleam. The c)"Usad e r's cross is its only decorati on. In front of the crusader's cross are inscribed the words, \Voodrow Wilson, and the dates of hi s birth and death- 1856 and 1924.
The grill, immediately in front of the sarcophagus and covering the recess to a height of se ven feet seven inches above the il oo r, is beautifully wrought in iron after the manner of the ancient craftsmen, the upright bars ending in cross es.
The canopy of delicately canced oak is directly over the sarcophagus. Woven into the face just below the cresting, as an enrichment, arc the words "I am the re surrection and the Ii fe, saith the Lord."
The · three £lags surmounting the canopy and lending color to the whole effect are all historic , two 0 f them being the "President's flags," presented by the Government to each President, and these represent Mr .

PHYSICAL THERAPEUTICS
(The following article haa been written upon reque8 l tor TH. ARRow by Dr. Mary Shannon Snook, Arkansas A.)
Physical Therapeutic exerci5es are by no means a n ::. w form of theraupy. Both exercise and rubbing were us ed extensively even in the time of Hippocrates, 460 B. C. Even before this there was a book written by the Chinese about 3000 B . C. called "Cong Fu," which dealt with prescribed movements. Hippocrates and his famous teach er, Heradicu s, each taught gymnastics for the preservation of health and th e cure of di sea se. It is claimed that Heradicus cured himself of p hysical defects by the application of his own theories and lived t o be a century o ld Galen, a n oted and respected R oman physi cian, who lived about 200 A. D. , was greatly int e r ested in friction and prescribed exercise . He pract iced his own theories of regular and cor rective exercise in order to overcome a general physical weakn ess . Peter Ling, 1813, of Stockholm and others right on down the line, established schools for curative exercis es, using horizontal and parallel bars, vaulting apparatus, rings, etc. Although each pioneer contributed much to educational gymna s tics, it is to Ling and his faithful followers that medical gymnastics and remedial corrective, and th erapeutic e xerci se owe their development.
In this country in 1889, Dr . \-Veir Mitchell and Dr. Douglas Graham were ..the first to tak e up and aro u se interest among the medical profe ss ion as to the value and need of physical th erapeuti c measures, and the first conference on this suhject was h e ld in Boston in November of the sam e y( ar.
In 1917, my very good friends and advisors, Dr. E. G. Brackett and Dr. Joel Golthwaite, were interested in the therapeutic work being done am o ng the allied nations, and were the inaugurators of the D epartment of Theraupy of the United States Army Medical Corps. And the war ha s given up opportunity to add knowledge and exp eri enc e to many medical problems. This is particularly true of Physiotherapics. Its use after fractures, nerve injuries, and acute infec tions has placed it on an entirely new plane.
Such marvelous results came from using physical therapeutics on our injured boys during the war, that the large manufac-
turing industries and insurance agencies in mo s t of th e large cities have established their own coterie of trained workers to care for its personnel. For economically it is of supreme importance to the industry that the injured man or wo man be given prompt attention for his own sake as well a s for the dependent family concerned. And in any great city thi s economic aspect in the relief of suffering is vital.
I do not claim that phy s ical therapeutics is a panacea for a ll the iUs to which the human flesh is heir. But it is an important factor in the armamentarium of the fully equipped physician . And I believe, moreover, that properly selected cases such as fibrosis, neuritis, infantile paralysis, adhe sion s , posture, empyema, and other cases, pre and post operative, if treated with correct technique by physical therapeu t ics , may have their time of treatment appreciably shortened. I believe also that it will help to cure other obstinate cases which might otherwi se continue over long periods of time.
On the well nigh boundles s possibilities of physica l therapeutics the curtain has g one up. A glimpse into its potentialities fills one with enthusiasm for carrying forward its great promises.
Of physical therapeutics there are countIess phases. For the purposes of this paper, however, only the most outstanding phases, light, heat, and massage mu s cl e training shall be discussed. The first of these, light, is a paramo unt necessity to the development, the well being, the existence even, o f human beings. Witho ut li ght, proper physiological conditions are impossible But before treatment of any kind can be given to a patient it is (ssent ial that the operator should have a very complete history of the case. He must also have insight into the personality of the patient, and he must' be in complete sympathy with him. He must, therefore, con fer with the phy sician in charge, read the case hi story, stud y the X-ray findings, and have a personal contact with the patient before beginning treatm , nt.
In a case of poliomyelitis (Infantile Paralysis) for in stance, the patient is apt to be weak, irritable and poss es sed of very littl e resistance. A phy s ical examination should be made to see that there are no heart complication s ; then a careful consideration should be g iven to the amollnt of voluntary power in all of the muscles of the body . Each case should be approached as an

indi vidual problem, both social and economic, and the rule to follow is to bring that · patient as quickly as back to the highest possible degree of function. It is very important to examine the different gaits of patients who have suffered an attack of infantile paralysis since it is from the gait that we know which mu s cle group is affected.
IIaving met these necessary requirements, and reme mbering that nluscle stretching, fatigu e, deformities , and improper balance are detrimental factors to the nth degree, and keeping in mind the ultimate aim of secur ing the best possible function, we are ready to consider our patient from the standpoint of the second phase of our subject, massage.
The amount of good received from ma ssage is undoubted, but n13ssage has its di stinct limitat ions and too much must not be expected from it. Kneeding, s troking, and manipulation of an affected limb placed in the proper position that is in which th e affected muscles are completely relaxed, stimulate the flow of venous blood back to the heart and increase the flow of arterial blood to the part s. Also they aid the lymph flow towards the center of the body and help rid the parts of was te products. Thus may massage aid in inducing better nutrition locally. On the other hand, if massage is too rough and of too long duration, it is l ikely to cau se muscular fatigue and an increased amo unt of muscular atrophy. Massage itself does not restore muscular power, nor does it have a direct affect upon the disease itself, but it does have a tendency to retard mu sc ular atrophy.
Going on to the third phase of our s ubject heat, we find it being used before massage is given because of the fact that muscular functi on is heightened at high temperature. This is true because h ea t dilate s the superficial b lood vessels causing them to be gorged with blood, and thus through massage more blood is driven towards the center of the body to be replaced by a similarly large flow of blood to the affected limb
There are several ways of heating muscles; by radiant heat, non-radiant heat, hot water and electricity. The two first nam ed are best in infantile cases, hot water being apt to cause undue tenderness of the sk in without producing a sufficiently high degree o f heat. Electricity, though extensively u sed , has not, as far as I personally have observed, res1.!lted in a great degree of good,
si nce a faradic current acts o nl y on the muscle to which it is applied, causing a great amount of contraction. Altho ugh this may be of benefit to that part icular muscl e , it would be much better if contraction co uld be produced vo lunt ar il y. Often a faradic current is very disagreeable to the patient, and it is a source of terror to young patients. However, this type of exe rc ise nlay be used for benefic ial purposes, in giv in g certain muscles a mild form of exercise.
There is another form o f current often u sed, in fact there are s everal , and that is the galvanic current whi ch i s suppo sed to produce improved nutriti on but it has not in my ac tual exper ience proved o f great value. In some cases where the ga lvan ic coil is used, ther.e is a certain return o f function, but that same function may also be found in a simila r case where no curr en t wa s used and where mu sc le training alone was done.
Thi s brings us t o the fo urth and m os t esse nti al phase to be discu ssed, that of mu scle training. Muscle training is o f very great importance a s it is fundamentally an attempt to restore in the brain the moto r im pul se to a mu scle, an ilnpulse whi ch has been impaired or lost during the course of <iisease. There are two aims in muscle training. First to force the impul se fr o m the muscle over a new route around the affected ce nter , and, second, to secure contra ction o f the mu scle, h o wever feeble .
This bring s to my mind man y exampl es see n during my years o f work. Fo r iqstan ce a captain in the army wh ose nerve impul ses were impair ed by a high explosive shell in the back resulting in paralyzed legs, was able by persistent effort and muscle training to make the impul se return s lo wl y. Never s hall I forget the m o rning when this m a n moved hi s t oes ever so s lightly . He call ed out, "By Gee! I'm making m y t oes wigg le ." And he bur st into tears of j oy and wa s quite oye r come ' with emotion. After he had calmed d own, he repeated th e wiggling process for several minutes.
In muscles no t t otally paralyzed, th ere is every reason to expect continuous mu scular movement fr o m the repeated attempts at driving a motor impulse fr o m the brain to a mu scle. Of course the se impulses have a decided psychologic"l as well as a decided physiological effect on the individual. Th ese physiological effects upon the human structure thro ugh physical th erapeuti cs
Tn!: ARBow OJ' PI BrfA PJlI
are very interesting as each indi vidual case calls for special procedure. F or exampl e , in a case in whi ch adhesions are already formed gentle mas s age would not be the principal mode of procedure, but would be dealt with by light then massage followed by deep friction.
Examples:
At Boston City Dispensary, Boston-a man of 28, who had a wife, one little gir l who had infantile paralysis four years ago, and a littl e baby with badly clubbed feet, was brought into our department suffering from burns obta in ed from the explosion of stove polish. His hands were burned almost beyond repair, however, from ti,e first h e received the alpine ray treatment daily until new skin began to form O\·er his claw-like fingers and disfigured hands, he also received massage and exerc ise and at the end of six months he wa s enabled to resume his position, and although his left hand was m,?re like a que s tion mark than a hand, he could use it nicely and was gaining use daily.
Another ca se-Danny Doe, ten years, was taken to the Abbott Hospital in September with a severt fracture of the left femur, where the leg was operated, set amI plated. The boy was then put on a Thomas sp lint and kept there until November 26. After being so long with his leg extended, flexion was impossible t o the youth as a fibrous ankalosis resulted. His physician who recognizes ph ysica l therapy, ordered that he be give n treatments and after four treatments the operator has been able, by u s ing hot packs and a li ght, to break up the adhesion and get a right angle flexion of the knee.
Exerc,ises for muscle training are accomplished in two wa ys : first, by passive exercise, that is, where the operator does the movement for the patient having the patient concentrate on the attempt to accomplish the movement; and second, by active exercise, where the power of concentration of the patient has reached a point where he voluntarily does the work with assistance of the operator .
Other types of cases handled by physical t herapeutists are fracture cases; pre and post operative surgica l cases, such as restoration of function by re-educating muscles that have been transplanted; stiff joint cases; sprains; bruises; fatigue; and ever so many other types.
There are many phases to be considered in our chosen field and a great many difficult and discouraging cases wh ich present g r eat prob lems to u s. But one of the most diffic ult and discouraging types of cases are those of Spastic Paralysis with its associated disability to its victims. 'I'he l esions mani fest themselves in physical incapacity rangin g from a mildly crippled gait to complete helpl essness, and ment a l states ran ging from apparent no rmal mind s to complete idi ocy. The exac t cause o f this disease is not known, but it is assumed to be some disturbance or impairment of the cerebral nerve tissues. Spastic Paralysis i s o f two types; conge nita l spast ic paralysis which is ve ry rare an d thought to be due to cerebra l hemorrhage resulting from difficult labor, and non-congenital spastic paralysis following cerebr o-spinal -meningiti s, wh oopin g co ug h, sca rl et fever , and diphth eria , or it may be the re sult of a fa ll o r blow on th e h ud . The p r ognosis o r termination, o r o utl ook of the disease depends on th e exto nt o f the centra l lesion. If th ere is a marked impairmen t, surge ry is of little or no va lu e. If th ere i s but littl e mental impairment, much benefit m ay be go,ined from s urg e r y . In almo st all cases, the patient may be taug ht to sta nd al one, with or without the u se of braces and m ay be taught t o walk even tho ugh very poo rly.
The tr eat men t o f Spastic Paralysis is wholly orth oped ic. The main purposes of treat ment being to stimulat e the nutriti o n o f paralyzed parts by means of muscle t rain ing exercises d es ign ed to create co-o rdinati on of movement , and to s timulate the overstretched mu s cles in the direction c their function.
Another field for Physical Therapeutics is tha t of the soca ll ed Spinal Curvatures. There. re four nat ural curves to the spine; two primary, and two seco ndary. I f for any reaso n these natural curves are increased, reversed, or deviated from a straight lin e, a pathologic cond iti on occurs which is known as Sp inal Curvature.
There are thre e kinds of Patho l ogic Curvatures o f th e spine; fir s t, K yphos is , whi ch means a posterior convexity at the upper dorsal regi o n, common ly known as "hump back," second, Lordosis, or incr eased ant eri or convexity of the lumbar regj oncommonly kn o wn as "s way back," and then the most common typo o f all in whi ch there is a latera l deviation of the sp ine, called

Scoliosis. Scoliosis is much t oo frequently not discovered until some structural change has taken place in the spine.
The word Scoliosis was given to this curvat ur e o f the spine by Hippocrates, and the word m eans t o twist o r bend. So in Scoliosis there is a flexion , side bending and twisting of the vertabne on their vertical axis. There is much di sc us sio n about the treatment of Spinal curvature, and authorities do not agree except in this one particular: Before any definite st ructural deformity ha s tak en place, treatment by exercise alone is of little or no use. Deep breathing and hanging exercises, either from a horizontal bar or by means of the Sayrehead apparatus, may be u sed to great advantage.
Empyema-a purulent effu sion in the lun gs often follows acute cases of pneumonia. After the acute stage of the disease has passed and during convalescence, the absorption of fluid may be hastened by therapeutic exerc i ses. The lungs sho uld be gently and gradually expanded by deep breathing, whi ch will increase the mobility of the ches t walls. The l ower part of the body may be strengthened by the u se of abdominal exercises accompanied by diaphragmic breathing , because of decreased involuntary exercise, the lo wer trunk mu scles lack t o ni c ity because of labo r ed and limit ed breathing. As a result the entire system suffers. The patient mu s t be taught t o take deep breaths so that the base of the lung on the affected side may be th orou gh ly aerated.
At th e Letterman General Army Hospital in San Francisco, Cali fornia many operative cases of empyema were helpfully treated by exercise during the conva lescing stage. I have at present a very severe case of empyema where there has been a resection of several ribs, two drain tubes, a ho ll ow chest, and a spinal c urvature besides exees ive loss in weight, and thi s patient is being much benefitted by systematic treatment and exercise. Her drain tubes have not been removed and yet she is s ho wing great improvement from the deep therapy li2"ht and ge ntle breathing exercises.
One of the most important factor s in Physica l Therapeutics is that of Hydrotherapy or water cure. It s e ff ects are produced first, by cleaning the skin and s timulatin g it to greater activity and second, by temperature-heat and cold -affect ing the sk in through th e nerve and blood supply and third, the mechanical effect of
water under pressure, affecting the skin and rubbing during the bath. Water is applied for these dfects either locally or to the whole body by compresses o r fomentations; by emersions or streams of running water.
In order to be of benefit a bath must produce what is known as a reaction. Tlus is known both to the patient and the operator by a h ealt hy pink color of the skin. The patient is in a glow, feels happier in mind and stronger in body.
If the patient becomes pale and clammy at once, we know that the bath has been too vigorous. As you know the skin is made up of mi sc ropic cells piled together to form thick pavement, this pavement i s laid on a base of so called connective tissue ceJis, and through the co nn ective tiss ue runs th e numerous nerves and blood supply.
All these structures have an important part to play in o ur various reactions-such as protection, heat regulation , etc.
The reflex action of water is very efficacious in many types of illness. We know that water dashed on the skin will produce an involuntary deep gasp, the h eart beat is quickened and there is a marked contracting of the large muscles of the body and a marked though invi sible stimulation of internal organs. By repeating these stimulations day after day the body machinery is speeded up. These treatments w ould not be given to persons suffering from acute infections unless so ordered by the attending physician but for persons wh o are sluggish of habit, they have a very definite value.
Another type of dis ease (or which the medical profession is turning more frequently to physica l therapeutic methods o( treatment is that of Arthritis. Dr. Joel Goldthwait describes arthritis as three kind s-infectious arthritis, atrophic arthritis, and hypertrophic arthritis.
In infectious arthritis the infection may be focal, caused by pus around the teeth, in the ton sils, or in the intestinal- tract j or it may be due to tuberculosis or other infections so obscure that the source is difficult to determine. Always the source of infection should be removed or treated as the case may require.
In atrophic or rheumatoid artl1fitis it is IXlss ible that there is some neurotrophic disturbance , and in the last Hypertrophic arthritis, commonly known as osteo-arthritis we find the most

serious type of all. A careful study of the diet is an important factor in treating all cases of arthritis-before an operator takes any case of arthritis in charge, it is well that she know to what general type her patient's case belongs as the treatment is different for each type.
I hope I have not been too scientific in my talk to yo u abo ut my work, but I have given you as nearly as I can a little insight into the work that I am doing daily, and I have used the very simplest terms. It is very hard to write on any subject that the general public does not know but if you dear people could only know the many joys, sorrows, laughs and sobs that come in my daily routine, you would rejoice with me in the little part I play in relieving suffering humanity.
I want to thank each and everyone of you for th e big part you have played this last year in giving me such an opportunity to serve and I never lose sight of the fact that my beloved fraternity has enabled me to do one of the noblest works to manSERVICE.

About fourteen years ago I said to a fellow-member of a local sorority, "Do you suppose we could get a chapter of Pi Phi to come in here?--and thereby Cas I have always seen it) was begun th e i ncept ion 0 f Wash ington B chapter of Pi Beta Phi.

A short se rvi ce in th e Gove rnm ent Hospital at Ellis H ospi tal at E ll is I s land int en s ified my int eres t in foreigner s, and when I came ba ck ho m e to Southern California I found myself wondering h o w the y did thin gs just across th e lin e in Mexico . It is o nl y a <tel' from wo nd er in g ho w they do thin gs, to finding out. A nd I began by reviving th e faint kn owledge I had of Spanish, and then I made a couple of trips far do wn int o th e fa sc inatin g a nd beautiful lan d of And to make even one trip int o interior Mexico, is to want to return, as anyone who has t:ver been lu cky eno ug h t o go, will t ell yo u It is an espec ia l privilege to be able to spe n d a summ er a t th e Un ive r s it y in Mexico C ity, for th e re one is thro wn into contac t with th e c ultur ed and trave led wh ose European manners and flu ency to co nve rse in fi ve langu ages g i ves mo s t of us an enti re ly new idea of Mexican charm a nd ability.
When I ca me ba ck from Mexico in September and une xpec ted ly t ook th e pos iti on of Director of Imm igrant Ed u cation in Sa nta A na , it wa s st ill to find o ut , day by day, just ho w th ey d o things in Mexico-- f o r most of o ur immi gra nts here are Mexicans, and o ur pr ob lem is wholl y Mexican Santa Ana ha s a po pulation o f about 30,000, and about one-s ixth of this is Mexican. Most of them aTe e mpl oyed to pick walnuts, o ran ges and lem ons o n the nearby ranches. I am on ly one of many t eachers doing the same so rt of wo rk h e re in Ca lif o rnia , and in Texas and A ri zo na, t oo. Ju st yesterday I hea rd a well -kn o wn ed uca t o r f ro m Chicago say th a t the y even had a Mexica n problem th ere. For the Southwest no longe r has a co rn er o n th ese people who are presen tin g themselves in va ri o us parts of o u r country to take the place of cheap la bor that we formerly imported fro m ot h e r co untri es.

a word of E ng li s h, then yo u rea li ze that there is great necd for this sort of teaching, not only for American protection interests, but because some of us-(and more and more of us) are fee lin g an increas in g ly heavy sense of responsibility and interest toward o ur siste r rep u blic. \Ve have realized that the so lu tion of 1\1exico's problem is educat.ion. and not intervention. 'Ve know that not fi fteen percent of her peop le can read and write, and that this i s more tragi c beca u se they h ave neve r had the chance to learn. \Y o know that the Mexican, especia lly the peon, is a migratory person by nature, and we realize that many of th ose whom we teach her e may wander back to their o wn country. In this way, bread cast u pon th e waters here in the Uni ted States may eventu a ll y l>e cast u p in the form of toast on Mexican soil. And so th e work of an Amer icanizat ion teacher when s h e is a teacher of Mexicans, takes on especia l problems. They call us A meri cani za ti on teach e rs, but it is se ld om that a Mexican eve r intends to o r does become a c iti zen of the Un it ed States. The Los Angeles Na turali za ti on Office s ho ws an average of about o n e a month, and E I Paso with a populati on whi c h is half Mexican naturali zes between tw e nt y and thirty a yea r . The psychology of the Mexican (or th e Mexican Indian) as r ega rd s hi s love fo r that particular spot of soi l u pon whi ch he happened to be born, is very different fr o m the psychology of other foreigners wh o come to this country with the avowed int entio n of becoming c iti ze ns as quickly as possible. often because it is to their co mm ercial advantage to do so. Then, too, the Mexican immigrant has a historical and soc ial backgr ound fo r hi s particular way of regarding naturalization. He remembers th at thi s very so il wa s o nce ca n , and wh en he crosses the invisible border line he i s very... apt to continue to live with hi s country men just as he did in Mexico.

Clin ic is the newest as well as one of the most important of our ventures.
A certa in contractor here in town cons tru cted a Mexican co urt that houses about forty families. That he painted the entire apa rtm ent a bright pink was proof of the fact that he und erstood Mexicans very well. The Sc h ool Board was q ui ck to realize the poss ibiliti es of classes cond u cted there, so th ey pay the r e nt o f an apartment and we hold English classes th ere seve ral times a w ee k. The Daughters of the Amer ica n Revolution furnished the two rooms in a manner so m ewhat approx im a tin g what the fam ilie s living in the court, sho uld and cou ld have. In another year we hope to have the apartment function as a demonstratjon center for both cook ing and sewing classes. The Englis h classes have been mo re than and recently we have s tart ed, under the su pe r vision of the City N urse and a public-spir it ed doctor, a baby clin ic that is examining both s ick a nd w e ll babies. Afte r the exam in at i on is oyer we cond uct a class in simples t English ( and so metim es in Spanish) on th e care of the baby. If the interest and untirin g effo rt s of both th e nur se and th e doctor are proof of s uccess, then s uccess is assured. And I think that untiring efforts and inte rest are as s uccessful with Mexican s as with any oth er grouT> o f people. Th e ho rizo n of the Mexican woman is pitifully narrow, and among no group o f people are littl e acts of kindness and helpfuln ess so apt to be repaid with such a large perce nta ge of wh a t th ey can (o r cann ot ) aff o rd. A few days ago on my birthday this was the more f o rcibl y d emo n strated to me by the arrival o f a group of "Senoras" at my apartm ent ; th ey exp ressed Hmuchas f e li c idades" which mea ns "man y h appy re turn s," they bore many bunches of fl o we r s, and togethe r they had purchased a good-sized and rather expe n s iv e carv ed marble Bird-Bath. Several weeks before I had openly admired a smaller and somewhat similar one in a w oman's home, thinking it well to be loud in my praise of what was really beautiful as opposed to machine embroidery and ingeni ous pictureframes constructed of green, whit e and red embroid ery. Now my feelings are a combination of gratitude versus c hagrin, plu s bewilderment as to where I am going to use a bird-bath in my small apartment.

PIONEERING IN AGRICULTURE
Smith Hughes Agriculture, although a particular type of work is not always the same. Particularly does this hold true at the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School in Gatlinburg, Tennessee for among the mountain people conditions are such that a distinct difference exists in the nature of work when compared with more advanced rural communities. Should I endeavor to apply a descriptive term to the work as found here, I would call it "Pioneering in Agriculture." To make clear my point and to give a better idea of some of the problems as met with in striving for agricultural advancement in the community, I want to relate what I consider a typical case .
Education by talks, illustrations, demonstrations or other methods is usually all we consider required in putting over our vocational work, but here, when all this is accomplished, I hit the real SNAG as you will see from the following incident.
Mr. B-. a fairly progressive mountain farmer, owns a farm 011 Fighting Creek. He has a very good orchard and in addition uses a small acreage for growing of truck crops. The sale of vegetables and fruit has become a source of income and "living" for him and his family. A fter hearing and seeing and perhaps reading, he has finally become convinced that the only way his orchard can give him the profitable returns it should will be for him to use better methods; to prune and spray. Educated to this point and with a firm resolve to do the necessary things he still hesitates. The cost-he ha s n't the money to do what he feels will not only repay him but give him a good investment on his labors and money spent. Urged by this conviction to go ahead if a way can be found, he seek. my advice as agricultural instructor.
LITfL.E PJOE()N
After talking with him a while, I decided it was a case where assistan ce w o uld likel y accomplish a great deal of good. I therefore volunteered to help him and see him through with hi s undertak in g.
First came the pruning. At an appointed day I arrived t o give him a lesson in pruning and to help him prune. Mr. B-, a nxi ous and ready t o lea rn , h ad an old trusty h an d sa w. (In this respect h e ha s better too ls th an are usuall y u sed in th e community fo r generally an axe is used and th e trees literally "butchered up."
Knowing what I could expect t o find in the way o f impl ements t o wo rk with, I of cour se took along the pruning t oo ls. Afte r explaining the principles o f pruning and applying these by pruning with him fo r severa l h our s, Mr. B f elt tha t he was ready t o tr y pr unin g by himself. B u t after seve ra l h o urs' use of th e proper implements he realized that in orde r to do sat is fact o ry wo rk he needed t oo ls, o r at least a good saw.

Rather than see him handi cappe d and to see him mutilate hi s fruit trees with crude tools I e ntru sted him with o ne o f th e pruning t ool s from th e Fann Shop for a few days (loan ing eq uipment has not been con s idered a good policy but h ow el se w o uld the situation be met?)
After having prun ed hi s o rchard h e expr esse d hi s appreciation of the saw and said: "I don't see how in th e wo rld I cou ld have gotten along with out it and d one the pruning I did-need to buy o ne next year."
After the pruning was over th ere ca m e the question of s praying Spraying of course s in ce it is a mo re cost ly opera tion o ffer ed a greater obstacle.

As he li ved five miles fr om Gatlinburg the trips would almost amount to the cost o f the pump by the end of the year. Next came th e question of m aterial s .
The cost was inquired into and wh en it was found to be about $10 .00 tile qu es tion o f spraying became an uncertain oneTen dollars of ready money even distributed over severa l months o f time would have been uncertain with Mr. B. He had money

It wa s al so his desire to keep from m a king obligati o n s that he was not ·certain of me e ting at a spec ifi ed time.

At the tim e of writin g this Mr B- h as pruned hi s o r c hard a nd ha s do ne a very c reditabl e job. The orc hard is mad e up o f about I SO trees. A lso o n e spray has been applied t o th e trees and plans ha ve been mad e to co ntinu e a co mpl e te sc hedule of s praying .

TW O NEW SC H O L ARS H[PS
Since Pi Beta Phi does not so li c it aid and assistance f o r our Settlement School fr om th ose not members of the frat e rnit y, it wa s a great pleas ur e to ha ve th e U nity Churc h in Montclair, New Jer sey vo luntaril y rai se money e noug h to donate two sc ho lars hips for s tud e nt s attending our School.
It all began wh en the R ev. Edgar S wan Wiers, the mini ste r of Unit y Church, sa w the Pi Beta Phi benefit performance o f "S un -U p" given und er the auspices o f the New York Alumna: Club. Later, whil e he and Mrs. Wi e r s we re t o uring in th e Uppe r S outh last summer, the y spent a w ee k -end at o ur Settlement School at Gatlinburg and their e nthu sia s m f o r th e wo rk w e are

doing inspired them to urge their church to devote an entire evening to our Pi Phi School.
On Good Friday evening , April 10, a dinner was held in Unity House, 67 Curch St., Montclair, N. J., and a charge of $1 a plate was made for the dinner. At least 25c of every dollar so recei ved went towards a Scholarship.
Kate B. Miller, formerly a member of our Settlement School Committee, had stereopticon slides and told about the school and the mountaineers; Mr. and Mrs. Wiers told of their visit in the community; and baskets, linens, woolen coverlets, chairs, etc., made by the mountaineers were on sale.
A great deal of interest was aroused which will probably result in an annual scholar ship given by the parishioners of the Unity Church. Such a voluntary contribution is a high recommendation for our work on Little Pigeon .
SPECIAL NOTICE
The Washington AIumn", Club wishes to express its thanks and appreciation of the generous response of Pi Phis throughout the country in the sale and purchase of Fleischer Hosiery. Through the efforts of Laura Joy Hawley, New York the "Vashington Club had the opportunity of selling the hosiery and it was through the generous cooperation of many Pi Phis that $1,200 was raised for our Settlement School.
FOOD FOR thought is a r esolution passe d at the la st convention of Kappa Alpha Theta, which say s : Resolved, That no chapter shall be allowed a vote at convention unl ess the chapter scholarship average for the bi e nnium prior to the convent ion is equal t o the general average o f its co llege.
Such a r eso luti on is a sp lendid one and s h ould be given careful consideration by all Nationa l Panhellenic Congress fraternities.
LETTERS have come to th e Editor 's desk sugges ting that we use in the ARROW a full page sh ee t he aded : " Your page to Edit." Thi s sh eet as suggested wo uld be detachable and cou ld be filled o ut and r eturned to the editor. Such a f ull page arrangement is contrary to po s toffice rule s . According to the law quoted recently to the Arrow Editor, o nly half a page can be used for such purpose and would n o t warrant the expe nse entai led.
SEVERAL valuable manu sc ript s and photograph s sent to the ARROW Editor by contribut ors have bee n lost in the mail during the past year. If you have s ent in co ntributi ons which have not been published write t o the Editor in order to ascertain whether the manuscripts were receive d. If you are sending materia l which cannot be dupli ca ted it would be advi sable to have it registered.
AIR MAIL s hould pro ve a boo n to secretaries who are delayed in getting their chapter letter s into the mail on time. For 8 or 16 cent s letter s may be se nt by a ir mail and thus save many hours of time. Try it.

located and has many' visito rs the cost of entertaining guests soon becomes appreciable. In order to save embarassment it is suggested that the chapter decide u pon a stipulated sum and the visiting alumn", will be very glad to pay it. In one chapter the sum of $135 has been paid into the treasury during the past five months by alumn", who visited. No charge was made for a room but a moderate s um was set (or meals. The entertaining of general chapter guests does not (all upon the chapter as a whole but must be paid (or by the individuals who have to meet the chapter house living expenses.
THE REVIEW of "Saddle Bags" which appeared in the December ARROW was not made primarily to raise money but was published chiefly to interest our members in the mountain country of the Southland. A knowledge and understanding of the people and the conditions o( the Land of Saddle Bags can be obtained through reading the book. If each one of us could visit the territory along the Little Pigeon we would be willing to do more than our share to support our Settlement School which is doing such splendid work. Copies of the book may be obta ined from Mrs. Franklin D. Cogswell, (Co lorado B), 16 Cedars Road, Caldwell, New Jersey.
SPECIAL ADVERTISING rates have been decided upon for material used in the main body of THE ARROW in order to give those Pi Phis who are engaged in comme rcial enterprises an opportunity to reach the entire (raternity. A rate of 4 cents a word will be charged for announcements or advertisements in the body of the magazine. Regular display rates may be obtained . from the Editor f o r advertisements in the regular advertising section. Mention of special ent«prises undertaken by fraternity members may be made through th< alumn", personals without charge.
PLEASE NOTE that in the report of money received for the Settlement School, which appeared in the October 1924 issue of THE ARROW, credit of $127 was given to the Athens Club and no credit to Ohio Gamma ClUb. The correct amounts should have been : Athens Club, $102 and Ohio Gamma Club, $25.00.

She was teaching here at the time of her death, on March 26, 1925. She had suffered for six weeks from an illness which was followed by meningitis.
She leaves her husband, her mother and father and one brother.
Her sweet womanliness, her unselfishness and her brave. cheery helpfulness at all times endeared her to all who knew her.

WALLBANK, NE:LLIE: B., died in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, Sunday, April 5, following an operation the previous Viednesday. Her death carne as a great shock to her family and the fraternity of which she has been a member since her initiation in the fall of 1885. She had been a member of the alumnre club since its organization and was its president and leader of the club for a number of years. She graduated from the Mt. Pleasant High School and then attended and graduated from the State Teachers College at Cedar Falls. She taught in the Mt . Pleasant High School one year and then was called to Cedar Falls, where she was assistant instructor in the English department, teaching there seven years. She there edited and published a book on grammar which is still in use in the public school. Owing to failing eyesight she returned to her home where she lived until her death.
A gracious woman who would have graced any station in life, devoted to her family, content with her activities in the town, helpful to all who came within her influence, capable, serene, admired all who knew her true worth-she was a devoted worker in the Presbyterian Sunday School, being superintendent for a number of years. She was secretary of the Red Cross and an active and valued member of many of the clubs of the town, but her devotion to Pi Phi was untiring. At the time of her death, she
was a member of the committee on Survey and Standardization, and was fonnerly on that of Fraternity Study and Examination . Miss Wallbank fully believed IT B to be the most uplifting influence to all college women. Her loss to the l ocal alumna! is beyond measure. To the members of her home, her aged mother, her brothers and sisters, we extend our deepest sympathy.

In all, through the benefit pertormance ot "Sun UP", Mrs. Gillette's sale of books and the card party, we assisted the Settlement St.:hool tund to th e extent or ,,98 .0 1, one o f the COntribution s we have yet made.
The r elations between the alumnre club and Pa .0. hav e been most cordial and mutually helpful.

The Mlnnea'poUs and St. Paul Club haa had another very successful year und e r the l eade r ship of E. C.

A year ago thlll 8p rlng we bad a membe r s hip tea at th e home of Mr•. M. E. Guttersen to whic h a.11 paid up m e mbe rs were Invited. It wa. a good start and this year w e have twice a8 many paid up m e mbe rs and a v ery much larger a.ttendance at our 8upper meetings, We have had ftve ot theae ga.th e rings with an average ot 60 at a m eetlnl". at aeveral there were about 100 present. These supper meetings are beld at th e h ornee of BOrne ot the girls, five or six girls being hoatesaea. Our executive board moot. alwaya the week before th ese suppe r m eetings and th e n presents whatever buslne81 that La of lnte r ellt and Importan ce to th e club. W e have had some v e ry intere8 ting progTama with 8uch people to talk to us aa Mn. Wirth ot the B e rkel ey Club, D r Snook, the PI Phi Fellow, and at our l ast m eeting we had shown to us aome slides ot Blgwln Inn and the lurroundlng c ountry. It would hardly lIeem necessa ry to say that we a r e quite satisfied with our torm ot meetings , We m a ke a point ot asking lIeveral active 8"lr1. to come to our m eeti ngs each time and then of coune ft."S hu been our cuatom we gave a rushln" party In the tall at the home ot Mra. Baas and our annual Christmns party at the hom e ot Mrs Nickels when we gave the girla several piece. of silver. The Christmas lun c heon Is alae a jOint celebraUon which this year was In the form of a bridge luncheon. Those at the c lub living In St. Paul orten tound It rath e r hard to come ove r to Minneapolis tor meetinga, Rnd as a r esu lt th e y w e re not always well represented. So th ese twenty St. Paul glrla tormed. their own club as a bra.nch of th o Minneapolis club. and hav e been m eeting regula'rly with an ave rage of 18. Th e y have their own offlcers and are quite dlatinct trom the Minn eapolis group. This does not mean that they are not w elcome at our meetings for they are. The Idea haa been more to k ee p th e girls together and working when otherwise th ey might ha.ve become disinterested. Mrs. Pae t%old. N ebr . B. has been chairman of the group this year.
A yeAr a.go It was decided that we would not give a bazaar this year but try other m e ans tor r al8lng the n eeded money. As a result we had a rood we Klvlng us $85, a' benent bridge $45, but our b1cges t mon ey maker thia year haa been Mre. Gutcesell's Chrlatmaa Card Book trom whi c h, with the untiring ettorta or Mrs. R 1. Seiberlich. we cleared $165 . Th e St , Paul Club also gave a beneftt bridce which resulted In a $50 donatiOn and In the end we were able to send U OO to the Se ttlem ent S c hool and $25 to the Fellowship Fund. In addition to this we have startoo here what we call a: "Slnklnlr Fund" to which w e hope to add each year what we can. We now have lOme over $200 In IL The purpose ot It Is to c r ea t e a tund trom which we may draw to m eet our obligations. We hope to mak e thl8 fund crow from year to year.

The InlUa.tlon banquet, always one of our mOllt Important loclal m eetlna-II with the Lct h e chapter , was held this year In the banquet room of the Golden Hotel. The toasts and llpeech es were exceptionally fin e.
The biggest and best party given by the alumnae c lub was In honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding at Delta Rho. the l oca l which lat er became Nev. A. It was held at th e Golf C lub and about eighty were present, Including th e active chapters and pledges. the alumnae c lub and vI81t1n&' members and all the Delta Rhos who could possib ly come.

The active girls entertained with songs. This party took the place of our March m eeting
We Sent a larger nmount to the Settlem e nt School this year than we u.ually do. The money was raised mainly through the sale or Chrl.tJnu cards, pi ctures &nd bask e ts. 'Ve expect n e xt y e ar to be able to .tart a houae fund, as our active chapter, which has been rather small tor Hever&l Jun:, Is very strong In numbers now &nd will not need n a y financial aulatance.
Mias Evana visited t he chapter late in Marc h and several members of the alumne club motored with her to the Mind e n Inn one Su nday afternoon. Later, many or the alumnm attended a tea that was given In her honor by the active chapter at the home of Mrs. .1. H. Gray.

In writing of "The Coll ege Panhellenic and Penalties," the editor of The AlIchora of Delta Gamma concludes her article thus:
Could not some of the following and other penalties be made sufficiently severe in ODe year to correct or punish all offenders?
1. Postl)Onemenl of pledging beyond the r egular pledge date from one day to several months with open ru s h tor all others during the time .
2. Curtailment or ca n cellAti o n of the chapter's soc ial functions tor n de finit e period.
3. ElIml"3Uon from a!l fraternity scholarship ratin gs .
4. Loss ot college bailOrs And nctivity points
5. Penalization ot any m e mb e r or members of a chapter who are responsible In any way for vi o lations. The punishment of the indtvidual will bring quicker action than any other method ror each person will consider the eUect that it may have upon her. Her chapt er should place her upon probation, cancel her social engagements and make her forfeit college honors and offices to any extent they see fl t.
Perhaps restricting the office of Panhellenic president to only those who have been a member of Panhetlenic at least five years will streng1.hen the efficiency ot Panhellenic . Some PanheUenlcs ha.ve already done this, as they feel that otherwise the president lacks the frate rn ity background and experie nc e; neither d o they have the advice and help of alumnae In l e8s time.

THE AIROW OF 11 BETA PHI
Quoting from an Associated Press Dispatch III the DC>lver Posl of April 5 : 'VilUamsburg, Va., (A. P. )-A copy of the Apollo room of the Raleigh Tavern, famous old colonial hostIery where the International honorary scholastic society of Phi Beta Kappa is beUeved to have been founded, has been provided Ilpr in plans drawn for the construcLion On the College of William and Mary campus here of a $100 , 000 memorial building honoring the fifty men who founded the society In 1776 . The building will be or red brick and wlll conform in Its outlines to the general style of the rest of the college buildings
From the campus of William and Mary, the Phi Beta Kappa society has extended over most of th e civilized world Chapters are situated at the majority ot the larg e r Ameri c an colleges and there are alumni chapters in many toreign countries . All these w111 be a s ked to take part tn the dedication of the memorial, which probably will be In Dec ember, 1926
* * * TYPE
Oltentimes--especially In rushing season - w e h e ar the expression, "She's our type," and we wonder how it Is possible In a c bapter of thirty members, all at varying tastes, different characterIstic s and se parate activities , to declare the existence at one type. Atter years of discretion have brought us the true int e rpretation of many things, we conclude that type Is the intangible, indefinable, indescribable something that links together In a common bond student, butterfly. athlete , musician, artist, journali s t, actress, because they all have the same ideals and because they have hitched their lndlvicfual wagons to the self-snme cresce nt -Tlte Cr e,oetal of Gamma Phi Beta.

The University of California, Sou thera Branch, has recently been placed on a par with the parent institution ' at Berkeley . Previous to this time the courses ot instruction have run for two years only in the Los Angeles branch and it has been. necessary tor the student to transfer eUher to Berkeley or to 80me other institution In order to obtain a degree
Beginning with the opening oC college next tall. the course 'Will be extended to cover tour years and degrees will also be granted.

College :orofessors may not receive salaries that will ultimately make RockefelJers and Henry Fords out of them, but it th e y are as sagacious Bnd thrifty as Professor Hiram M.

Recent newspaper dispatches state that the P e rkins observatory at Ohio Wesleyan University, which wtll house the third largest telescope in the world is being built mostly with the llt.e savings ot Hiram M. Perkins, an obscure coIIege protessor. Professor Perkins's salary never was more than $1,800 a year , but by keen business sagacity and fortunate investments he accumulated $300.000, every cent of whi ch he gave to Ohio \V esleyan. He taught In the Institution for more than half a century. The professor did not live to see his Ufe's dream realized, as he died at the age of 91 several months ogo.-Kappa Atpha Jourllul •

WELL SAID
While concerned with chapter activities it would be advisable for some c hapt e r executives to consider that campus activities can be sadly overdone. There are some students who, In ju stice to themselves and tbelr chapte r , should undertake no activities. Th ey are those who with difficulty make average grades and those who must put in any considerable time to outside work. There are not a great many activities that justify one's Interest and attention In college. Athletics, literary, forensics-are not these the major activities, with politics and organization membership trautng behind In importance and worth? Somehow a string of activities atter one's name in the college year book seems to l ook good to one In college but It c uts little figure atter leaving the campus. The growth and development one acquIres by his devotion to some dIj the major activities sta nds bim In better stead. Would It not be well tor chapters to "ration" their members' participation In actlriUes? A knowledge of the powera of an individual together with his scholastic record should furnish the activities committee data upon which to recommend his participation In activities. BrilUant scho lars may be given tree reign but advised against over participation. College, 8S well &8 later lite,

ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
THE GOLDEN ARROW
By DOUGI,AS A. ARNOLD, Virginia A
I.
In college days, when hearts are young, When thoughts are wild and free When laughter, joy and mirth abound, When Life as gold we see, The Pi Phi arrow, slender, straight, Is worn o'er hearts that beat In carefree time-'tis then it seems \Ve cannot see "Defeat."
II.
In after years, when hearts see m sad, vVhen sometimes skies are gray, When Duty calls, when "Carry On" Grows harder day by day, 'Tis then the arrow, pointing high , A deeper meaning hold 5, We gaze on it; the sky turns blue, It makes us reach ou r goals! Memories come of college friendshipsFriendships, with the years proved true; But we feel these ties are stronger, Strengthened in the wine and blu e Of Pi Beta Phi.
Years have brought u s many changes, Homes afar and friendships new; As of yore, the ones most precious Still are of the wine and blue, Of Pi Beta Phi.
May we then be yet more loyal
May our love be ever true
To the go ld en shining arrow
To the wine and silver blue Of Pi Beta Phi .

"NOTE US"-KANSAS BETA
The curtain rises on an empty stage, and the spot light reveals a white banjo in a s la nting position against a black background . The tinkling of a banjo is heard off stage, and after a brief interval a curio us little boy in a black velvct s uit, with wide white co lla r a nd cuffs, enters. He espies the banjo a nd examines it with wonder and delight. lIe inquisitively plucks a string and jumps back start led as it breaks with a twang. Sim ultaneou s ly with the twang a figure dressed as a n ote appears on the neck of the banjo and starts to sin g Delighted with the result, the boy breaks another strin g-and yet another, eac h with the same result, until th e six strings are broken and six figures are revealed perched on the neck-joining in the final ch onts.
At the cl ose of the song, the boy mischievously rams his fist thru the fa ce of the banjo· To hi s s urpri se a head pops o u t. He further sa ti sfies hi s curi osity by tearing away the paper to revea l the res t of he r. She smile s at him, and starts si nging in the bluest o f blue tones, "Me and the Boy Friend." As she sin gs, the notes on the neck wiggle the ir fee t in accompaniment.
After s he l eaves, the boy coaxes out a foot -note in the guise of a toe-dancer. She e nterta in s him a fe w m o ments and dances back o ut of sight as a girl with a violin appears and plays a po pular se l ection to the accompaniment o f pantomime by the not es.
For the finale , those who h ave appeared group themselves in s ide the banjo and to piano and violin accompaniment s ing a closing song . In th e medley these so ngs' were u sed-only the fir st few lines of t he piece s-in this order:
Oh Peter!
Dancln' Dan!
Cha rl ey. My Boy!
Ob Harold!
Ray and Bls Little Cbevrolet I
Oh Gee, Geo.gle!
At the clo s ing of th e medley, aft e r a s erie s of ch ords on the pian o, the no tes joined and sang the se lin e s of "\Vhy Shouldn't \Ale ?"
"Ev e ryone s ee m s to b e turning th e tri c k

The costumes of the no tes were clo se fitting black cambric suits with white pompoms They wore white s kull caps on one side of the ir heads. On the legs hanging over the stem of the banj o were fastened large white notes, the notes covering the foot, the stems extending up to th e knee where the flags of the notes were fastened.
\Vhen the curtain rose, the face of the banjo was covered with thin white paper· When broken a small platform was seen against a dark background. The blu es singer wOre black and white evening dress-as did the girl who played the violin. The toe dancer wore a short black velvet danc in g costume with white :lOtes painted around the bottom of the full circular skirt. The

Boy wore tight velvet knickerbockers, a short Eton jacket, and a blouse with wide white collar and cuffs, white hose and black shoes. The boy did much to make the stunt successful His pantomime during the songs kept the whole thing together and his by-play with the notes was very amusing.
"Note Us" was presented December 5 and 6, by Kansas Beta , winning first prize in Aggie Pop Concert.
