CONVENTIO T-ESTES PARK!
JUNE 25-30
a Pi Phi (rail a-winding 10 Co lorado this June, Special train, and car a-traveling ),Oll will see us real 500n. Tht're' !\ :l big hotel a to take care of us all. And we'll soon be there a-smiling in Pi Phi conventio n hall.
('oT1\'ention! \\,hy ? ('oll\'cntion morc nearly represents our ("ollception of national organization and national interests than anything whirh we have in OllT fraternity system. It gi \'cs each chapter the opportunity to he r ecog nized as a link in the national chain and brings to each chapter the realization that it has a far-reaching influ ence rather than just that of an independent or isolated group.
By our co min g togeth er in a big national meeting we are enabled t o know our beloved Founders, our national officers, and the repr esentatives of every Pi Beta Phi group. N ames which we have learned in cold type become living , thinking beings. Problems which loomed grave and menacing in the cold ink or type of letters are smoothed out and explained away with words and the lruman touch.
IC this is your first convention it will enrich you r life with new friends; if it is not your first, you will find the joy and pleasure of renewing old friendships and of making new ones. Instead of finding your horizon limited to the state in which you live, you
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
will find it widening to Canada, to Florida, to California, to \Vash- ' ington.
After days- spent ·in working out constructive legislation or in making more perfect the laws which we have j after nights spent in singing and after hours filled with the joys of viewing the snowcapped R ockies or hiking through timber and scaling mountain sides, you will return home with a renewed faith in humanity and with an earnest endeavor to strive after the ideals for which Pi Beta Phi stands.
This convention is to be a "Singing Convention ." In speaking of the war, Lieutenant Howard A. Johnson, N, said: "If one asks why the Gennans l 1ad no chance to win, my answer is that they had to fight singing armies. The British with 'Tipperary,' the French with 'Madelon'-all the Allies with their extemporized songs-men whose morale couldn't be broken, but who put their complaints in the f orm of songs-they cou ldn't be defeated. Most of all does this apply t o the American Army. No war ever brought out the humor and the songs that this war did, although no other war caused so much real suffering."
It is a common saying among fraternity inspectors and officers that wherever they find a singing chapter, they find harmony and an ideal spirit of fellowship. Hence, we intend to make ou r meeting at Estes Park so filled with the songs of our colleges , our fraternity, and our chapters that the entire six days will be like a symphony orchestraproducing with its many individual players and instruments the effect of one huge organ and its song: perfect harmony.
THE ATTENDAN CE CUP
Are you going to win the silver attendance cup which Louisiana A won at Charlevoix in 1920? From the amount of enthus iasm displayed by the Louisiana gi rls ,"e will all have to work exceedingly hard if we expect to win it. The attendance cup is awarded upon the following points: total number of chapter present; mileage; actives present; active enrollment j and total enrollment. Every chap ter has an equal chance . I
CONVENTION EXHIBIT
One of the most interesting phases of convention is the chapter exhibit contest. These exhibits leave lasting impressions UP'"oD the minds of the convention delegates and visitors. The award is made
CONVENTION-ESTES PARK 407
for the best chapter exhibit upon the following points: Representation of chapte r: social, athletic, dramatic, musical and other activi· ties to be included; representation of university or college; artistic effect. (See October ARROW, 1920, p. 44 and December ARROW, 1921, p. 203).
BRING YOUR FAMI1.Y
Bring your families to convention. Th ere will be plenty of things to keep them busy while you are attending sessions, fmm playing gelf and riding horseback, to hiking moer glaciers, up canons and mountain sides or just resting in the mountain sunshine.
Estes Park is Ii lI ed with mountain whi('h may he T""ted if YOUT family prefers to live in them rather than in the hotel. These cottages give a touch of vacation and outdoor life not obtainable in t:1C larger hotels.
SUMMER HOME SITES
You have undoubtedly heard of the summer home sites now available in the national forests. Come to Estes Park to the convention and while ther e investigate a site for your summer home Throughout such areas in the Colorado National Forest there are numberless at· tractive summer home locations easi ly accessible to th ose who love the mountains. Study the areas offe red and pick out a l ocation for your home in the mountains so that you can r eturn yea r by yea r with your family. These horne sites are rented or leased from the government for the sum of $10 to $25 a year. Permits are tran sfe rable with the approval of the Forest Service and permittees are allowed ninety days in whi ch to remove or sell their improvements in case they desire to reJinquish their permits. Full information conce rning these home sites may be obtained from the Forest Supervisor at Fort Collins, Colo., or the District F o rester , Federal Building, Denver, Colo.
ESTES PARK-TilE BEAUTIFUL
During the season of 1921 , more than 273,000 lovers of nature visited. Estes-Rocky Mo untain National Park and yet there are so many miles of forests and mountains , so many cano ns and trails and so much space that one can always find solitude. Estes Park is only eighty miles from Denver and eighty-nine miles from Cheyenne, Wyo ., and is easily accessible by rail and auto . During the tourist season Estes Park enjoys three mails daily and has direct long dis-
THE ARROW OF Pi BETA PHI
tance telephone and te legraphic connections with the 'East and the West. The railroad does not run into the Park but auto stage lines make the trip daily up and down the ca nons con necti ng with the railroads at Denver, Longmont or Fort Collins.
flHere in the heart of the R ockies the naturalists find more than one thousand of the continent's rarest and most beautiful fl owe rs and hundreds of birds; the hik.er finds more than sixty peaks above 11,000 feet to scale and a number of glaciers with their ice caves; the golfer linds splendid links at the Country C lub, the angler disco vers many, many miles of trout streams to coax him, and the automobile enthusiast, hundreds of miles of fine mountain roads to urg e him on. In fact, almost any temperament may find something o f interest, although the grandeur and ruggedness of na ture is the chief attraction."
Last season, 1,060 persons reached the summit of L ongs Peak whi ch towers 14,255 feet above sea level with the sheer c liff rising perpendicularly 2,800 feet above Chasm Lake. Fifty years ago this peal< was considered un co nquerable.
There are scores of places of interest that may be reached by auto or horseback or foot trails and the en tire co untry is a paradise for the kodak enthusiast.
Wild game may be f ound in the park such as deer, elk, mountain sheep, bear and hundreds of beaver.
HI STORY OF E STES PARK
With its large herds of game and streams teeming with trout, Estes Park was for countless ages the paradise of the Redskins of the Western plains. Later, trappers for the Hud so n Bay Company found this territory just to their liking . Th e winter of 1840-41 found Kit Carson and his band of trappers in the Park. From that time until 1859 it was an unexpl o red land. At that time it was disco vered by Joel Estes - for whom it was named. He discovered newly -e rected lodge poles but from that day to this it has never been visited by Indians. But the white men have found its advantages so great that they have annua ll y visited th e Park in ever increasing numbers.
SPE ND THE SUMMER I N THE WEST
Just a short distance fr om the Hotel Stanley, the Y. W C. A. has its conference grounds which will be open all summer. There you may rest and play to your heart's delight.
CONVENTION-ESTES PARK 409
In the latter part of July the big Frontier Days' Celebration which is the rendezvous for hundreds of Wild West riders both men and women who come to test their skill in busting bronchos, bulldogging steers, roping calves and conquering in all sorts of western sports, will be held at Cheyenne, Wyo., just eighty-nine miles from Estes Park.
Those who are planning to accompany Mrs Rugg on the Third Pi Beta Phi European Tour will start for the eastern coast immedi· ately after convention; those who ct?ntemplate making a tour of American parks and pleasure spots will also start on their jaunt from the convention sessions.
This June, ESTES PARK will be the Pi Phi Hub I
CONVENTION CLOTHES
You must keep in mind the fact that Estes Park is in the mountains at an a ltitude of more than 1,500 feet so that the nights are always cool and a wrap of some kind is necessary. Do not fail to bring a sweater and a coat. There will be no chance of a 'Cheat wave" as it is rare when the thermometer rises above ninety degrees at our chosen meeting pla ce. And hot weather is unknown the last of June in the Roclc.ies
You will want IIconvention" clothes but not a lot of uconventional" garments because there will be np great formality when the Pi Phis take command of the H otel Stanley. Elaborate dress will be most unsuitable.
One party dress for the banquet will suffice, a hiking suit, either of the p rescribed trouser type or a heavy skirt and middy will be essential j spring dresses will be comfo rtable for the day time and for convention sessions j but an afternoon dress of serge, or silk will probably prove mo re serviceable.
Do not f ail to bring the sweater and coat for evening wear I
THE BAN QUET
Those of you who have attended previous conventions know what a crowning feature the banquet is. Nothing can take the place of it. Plans are now under way for a splendid affair. A very low special rate has been made by the H otel Stanley to the hotel guests and the hotel management is also prepared to accommodate every Pi Phi who can attend the banquet whether she is a guest at the hotel or elsewhere. Prices for the banquet will be announced in the April Bul/.tin and in the June ARROW.
THE H OTEL STANLEY
No expense was spa red and no modern ideas in hotel equipment O\'erlooked in building the Hotel Stanley. The hotel management has tumed oyer the exclusive use of the hotel, the manor and the casino to our convention. There are also many other hotels which will accommodate any Q\"cr fl ow of Pi Phis, relatives, or friends.
Convention sessions will be held in the Casino, a most attractive bui l ding exactly suited to our needs.
The hotel grounds are well lighted with electricity; the hotel kitchen is equipped with e l ectrical appliances and the laundry is fully with t::"ery appliance for taking ca re of the work of its hotel guests.
RC3cn'ations for con\'cntion should be made as soon as possible with Frank H aberl, Stanley H otel, Estes Park, Colo.
The rate of $5.00 a day made by the hotel is excellent.
It is ,'ery essential that you fill out the enclosed registration blank, a.nd mail to the Con\'ention Guide when making reservations with Mr. Frank Haberl, as the Guide has charge of room assignments. If you desire to be ell suite with o r near friend:; who have made previous r eservations, give necessary detail!; o( information and everything possible will be done to accommodate you. P eop le making the earliest r ese rvat ions , will, of cou r se, obtain the most desirable rooms.

POST CONVENTION EUROPEAN TOUR
As announced in the December issue of THE ARROW, the authorized Pi Beta Phi Tour to Europe for 1923 has ueen arranged with special consideration for Convention plans making it possible to proceed from Estes Park immediat ely to the port of departure. The party "ill meet in Montreal on the evening of July 5 and emba rk on the foHowing morning on the popular new S. S. Mon/rose for the voyage down the St. Lawrence River. The first two days on this scenic Joute are a feature of the trip and th e approach to the natural fortress of Quebec is an impressive experience.
On arrival in Live rpool, the party will procee d direct to Chester and the tirst night on English soil will be spent in this roma ntic town . Travel in England and Scotland includes a specia l three -days' motor tour in rural England , enabling the party to witness a performan ce in the Memorial Th ea ter at Stratford-on-Avon . A recent letter from the business management says: uMrs. Rugg is indeed fortunate , as we have just received advice that the Summer Shakespeare Festival opens on July 23."
The itinerary offers a variety of attractions: some of the stateliest English and European cathedrals; carefully chosen examples of ancient "3nd medieval castles and the art of the great galleries, including the unparall eled Egyptian reli cs in the British Museum whj ch arc now of particular interest. Restful trips on lake steame rs and through quiet Dutch canals arc provided at intervals Mountain trips are a most attractive feature and the maximum of motoring has been planned to insl.;1re delightful travel over a wide rural area. The c1imalC o f the to ur will be a three -day motor trip through the valley of th e Loire, v isiting the marvelous chateaux of the French kings.
Mrs . Rugg is in correspondence with the Belgian girls who have welcomed the previous parties so warmly and who are eager to spend an evening in Bru ssels with the 1923 group. Other plans of a personal nature are now under way, which will give the party unusual glimpses of contemporary life and customs abroad.
The homebound sailing from France on S. S. Rochambcau brings the travelers back to New York, allowing time for visiting and shopping in that popular city before returning home. Particularly attractive steamship reservations are available for early registrants

(An account of Yrs. Edmondson', public activitiea will appear in the June i'sue. -EOITOI)
To travel 14,000 miles to play cleven games was the experience of the Indiana Unive rsity baseball team on its recent visit to Japan. The team went to Japan at the invitation of \Vaseda University at Tokyo to playa series of games with the Waseda and other Japanese
university teams. The Indiana team is one of a number of American co llege teams to exchange visits with Japanese college teams. While the expressed purpose of this exchange of is the playing of baseball, a deeper purpose as Professor Abe, who is responsible for the idea sees it, lies in the hope that through the field of sport an important contribution may be made to an international understanding tween the young men of America and the young men of Japan .
The team left Bloomington the last of March and returned the last of May after an absence of sixty days, thirty-five of which were spent on trains and steamers. The party cons isted of twelve players, the

assistant coach, the coach and his wife, my husband as faculty manager, and myself. At this distance it may be safe to say that I went along "by way of decoration." As a matter of fact I found a number of ways to make myself useful-not the least of which was the official reporting of the trip and the games. My knowledge of haseball English increased amazingly and I was soon ahle to write uhe Ayed (JtH to center" and uhe died on third" without serious shock.
\Ve sai l ed from Seaule over the northern route vJ1 the All1cril:an steamship Keys/otic Slate, since renamed the lV illinm JlcA'i"lry, following the deci!'ion of the United States Shipping Hoard 10 name the steamers under its operation for the presidents of the united States. As w e steam ed d own Pugct S o und our party st ood o n deck watching the snow -covered mountains receding in the background and the great flocks of sea gulls that circled round and round the boat. As we leaned against the rail one particularly bold gull flew past within a few feet of us. As he got along side he turned hi3; bill into our faces and said "ha-ha ha-ha." "Ha-ha ha-ha, yourself. You've nothing on me," retorted one of the team. It was this light -hearted ('ome -back so characteristic of healthy American youth which neither at sea, 'or earthquake 011 land, nor the lassitude induced by an unaccustomed climate, nor the confusion of strange could ever quite overconle, and which was responsihle in the end for the very decisive victory of the Indian a team over the Japanese team which had defeated us in the opening games.
The northern r oute passes within forty miles of the Aleutian islands and at this time of the year was very cold and stormy. \V e ran through hail, sleet and snow. 1n the midst of a heavy storm at three o'cloc k in the morning seven nights out, it was necessary to stop our cngines to make some repairs. This a ll owed our boat to drift helpless ly about and suddenly we "fell off in the trough." Our boat li sted thirty degrees to one side and twenty-three to th e other. \Ve were awakened out of a deep sleep by the terrifying wrenching of the boat, the dreadful c rash of the dishes in the dining-room, and the sound of what seemed to be thousands of feet on miles of ladders as the crew was called. out to clear away the wreckage.
We had been told the night before that we had been f orced considerably out of our course by the storm in order to take the wind on a more favorable quarter. Knowing that we were to go close to the Aleutian Island s, my first thought as I tried to regain my balance
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
on my narrow bed was, "we are on the breakers and are lost!" Disappointing as it has been to me in looking back to the experience, none of the conventiona l deathbed thoughts flashed into my mind, my past remained a dead past, and I dipped no farther into the future than a sort of detached speculation as to how it would feel to be suffocated by the inrushing water. In the terror of the moment I made su re that my husband was in his narrow bed beside me, resigned myself, turned over, and calmly went to sleep I The morning brought stories of passengers having been thrown fr om their narrow beds to the Boors of their staterooms, and their baggage and furniture having been rearranged in the most surprising fashion.
Only two of our party were not sea sick at all. Some of the rest of us were sick before we were out of the Sound into the open sea, and some of us were sick the entire fourteen days of the unusually stormy crossing. After being one day ove r due because of the stormy weather we docked at Yokohama one afternoon about 'five o'clock in a cold drizzly rain. Here we found waiting to greet us Professor Professor of Economics and Sociology at Waseda University and our host while in Japan; Mr. Ishii, third baseman on the Waseda team that had played in America the year before; Mr. Okada, the Chief Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Yokohama; and Mr. Isobe, representing the Indi ana Unive;sity Japanese Alumn1. Little souvenirs of welcome from Waseda and from the City of Yokohama were pinned on our coa ts.
It was quite dark when we finally finished the ordeal of the immigration officials and the customs house, made as pleasant as possible by our Japan ese friends, and were ready to start for Tokyo. Professor Abe had arranged for rikishas to take us from the dork to the railroad station.
Our nrst jinrikisha ride! I shall never forget the sensation. As we were pulled along the narrow unpaved streets between the rows of low t ile-roofed buildings in Yokohama, with othe r jinrikishas and carts and bicycles filling the streets, passing and repassing us, each with its Japanese paper lantern as a traffic li ght, it seemed like a staged performance . This sense of the unreal experienced on our first night did not leave us during our entire stay in Japan.
\V e were taken by electric train to T okyo, a di st ance of some forty miles and drove to the Seiyoken . Hotel. There we were met by President Shiozaw3, President of Waseda University, several members
BASEBALL TRIP TO JAPAN 421
of his faculty, and scores of newspaper men. OUT reception was most co rdial. It was by this time quite late but we were kept up mu ch later being photographed fo r the ea rly e diti ons of the Japan ese newspapers.
It had been originally arranged for ou r party to stay at the Imperial Hotel in T okyo . On our arrival at the Port of Yokohama we saw the beautiful big white British Battleship R enown with its escort o f Japanese battleships riding at anchor, telling us that the Prince of Wales had preceded us by a few hours. Every available room at the Imperial Hotel had been reserved to house his large , glittering r e tinue while he and other members o f his staff were entertained at the palace. So arrangements had been hastily made for us at the Seiyoken H otel , where after a day or so when ce rtain adjustments co uld be made we were quite com fortable. In the end the cha nge in arrangements whi ch had a matter of apology on the part of our Japanese friends turned out to be a fortunate circumstance, for the next day after our arrival-a Sunday when everyone was on the streets or at a garden party or festival - the Imperial Hotel was destroyed by fire and the guests lost all their bagga ge. And so it was , having weathered the storm at sea, we escaped the seco nd peril of the expedition- the Imperial Hotel fire.
The next morning after our arrival we were, of course, up early and out into the streets. For the first time in our lives we were co nscious of being objects o f great curiosity. Wher eve r we went we were follo wed about. ]f we stopped for an instant we were immediately surrounded by a cr ow d of eager, pushing Japanese of all ages and both sexes. They were interested in our fa ces, our clothes, our moving about. They were never rude, never impolite, never impertinent. Our smiles brought answering smiles, but never any undue advances. We soon accepted these manifestations of interest, at times with complete indifference, at times with friend ly indu l gence just as we accept at home the American small boy type of curiosity.
Arrangements were immediately made for our team to practice on the ' Vaseda diamond and with only a week's time to recover from the trip and to regain their baseball eye they started the series of games. The Japanese are intensely interested in baseball. The crowds that carne to watch the Indiana team practice were as large as those which usually attend college games here in America. These good humored,
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
demonstrative crowds were quick to applaud good plays, to shout derisively at poor ones, and to laugh at awkward blunders.
At our fir s t game there were 6,500 paid admissions. As our team entered the gates th ere was a great cheering and shouting. My husband and I remained outside the gates for a time talking to some Japanese friends. As we walked to our places a little later another chee ring arose. \Ve looked about for the cause of the demonstration when to Ollr great surprise we found that the appearance of Ollr own unconscious selves was the cause of the outbreak. The good-humored crowd was ready to a.pplaud anything. OUT smiles and American bows of acknowledgment brought further cheering and we slipped into our seats greatly flushed and quite self-conscious.
The heartiness of these demonstrations did not diminish during our whole stay in Japan. Wherever the team went it was greeted most enthusiastically and treated with the utmost courtesy and consideration. \Ve were showered with gifts of a ll sorts. \Vh ether the gift was of great or sma ll value, its presentation always co nveyed to us the good will of the Japan ese and the feeling that they were glad to have us there.
Tokyo even staged for us an earthquake, officially said to be the most severe in that city since 1894. It occurred during the day when our party was scattered allover town. My husband and r happened to be in our room at the hotel at the time. We had already experienced severa l sli ght quakes since our a rriv a l and when the first little shake came on this day we looked ac r oss the table at each othe r and smi led making mental note of one more experience to !ltell the folks back home."
In moment, howeve r , this slight shaking increased to a violent jerking This jerking gave way to a whipping motion as the earth rocked up and down , east and west, and north and south, accompanied by terrifying grinding, and groaning sounds as though the ea rth itself were writhing in agony.
\iVith one movement we reached the large window in our room overlooking the street. We threw up the window and stood waiting for what would come next, not doubting for a moment but that death would be our final part in the succeeding events. What seemed ages o f time was r eally only a few minutes, and the earth seemed to settle back gradually onto a firm base again. Our building remained s tanding and intact but was co nsiderably damaged. And so with
storm at sea and hotel fire passed, we escaped the third peril of the expedition.
In our ignorance my husband and I had unwittingly done the wisest thing by standing in the open windows. \V e were told later by those who have been taught to care for themselves in earthquakes in Tokyo that the street is a very unsafe place because of the danger from flying tile whipped off the low roofs of the buildings; that the safest place is in a building in an open doorway or window whose supporting timbers often remain standing, affording protection, when all the r est of the building co llaps es.
Severa l members of our party were upstairs in an ivory shop. At the first shake the J apancse proprietor yelled "Earthquake" and disappeared before the boys could understand what he said. They hurried to the stairs and started down where they were caugh t as one of them exp ressed it "rattling around on the stairway like dice in a box." Some of the party were out sightseeing, visiting the temples in Shiba Park. They hurriedly quit the templt>S, preferring to pin their faith to more familiar gods.
A short time after ou r arrival in Tokyo the Wa seda team ga\'e a banquet at the '¥aseda Club to welcome the [ndiana team formally to Japan. This was a six cou rse banquet of American food, served American style, with speeches of we1come by President Shiozawa of 'Vaseda University, members of his faculty and representatives of the Japanese Press, responded to by members of our party. The delicate compliment of co ndu ct ing the entire affair in Ameri can style served to put us at our ease at once. This banquet gave opportunity for the two teams to meet in a fine spi rit of comradeship and good fellowship to the promotion of which they soon found difference in language was not an insurmountable barrier.
Quite different was our first experience at dinner in a Japanese tea house, when OUT Japanese Alumni took us to the K oyokan or Maple H ouse, one of the most famous tea houses of Japan. F o rtunately hy this tim e we felt quite at home with ou r gracious alumni, so that ou r awkward attempts to do the proper Japanese thing and our blunders served only as sources of merriment in which our alumni heartily joined.
The first thin g on arriving at the tea house was to take off our shoes and check them at the door just as we would check a hat or an umbrella in this country. We were offered Japanese house shoes but
THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
to no purpose. The Japanese shoe requires a stocking with a special co mpartment for the great toe, and as our stockings were Dot constructed on these lines, there was nothing for it but to go in our stocking feet. I am happy to say the state of our stockings cast no unfavorable reflection on our native country.
We were first taken to a small room and ser ved tea. To the American notion lms room was absolutely devoid of furnitu.re. It was not a question as to whether we would sit on chairs-there were no chai rs on which to sit. Around the room on the scrupulously clean matting which covered the floor there wefe a number of pillows about two and half feet square, and about four inches thick, filled with material firm but at the same time somewhat soft, and cove red with silk of two shades of brown and buff in large plaids-not gaud y but quite pleasing to the eye.
On these pillows we were expected to sit in true Japanese style. Be it said to our cr edit that we did o ur best at first. After a very few seconds, however, we yielded t o the protest of our untrained knees and toes and sank into more comfo rtabl e if l ess gracefu l positions. Our Japanese friends joined in the general lau ghter following ou r ludkrous failure to adapt ou r selves to forms of polite usage of Japan.
A number of waitresses came in kneeling on the floor to serve us. brought tea in cups with no saucers. There were no handles on the cups, and no sugar, lemon, o r other "seasoning." A lacq uer saucer was se t before each of us with a bean cake-a round lump of sweet cake about the size and shape of a tangerine. The cak.e was a sweetish pudding -like mixture with white frosting all over it. In frank imHation of our kindly and amused Japan ese hosts we picked up our cake with a small wooden stick like an enlarged toothpick and did our best with t ea and cake. The experiment was not very successful, however.
After our tea a tiny wicker basket containing a napkin wrung out of very hot water and left still twisted in the bottom of the basket was brought to each one. This was the "finger bowl."
After a short intennission in which we were taught s ome Japanese games and strolled about the beautiful fonnal garden with its velvety grass and its cherry trees now in full blossom, we were taken to another room where the dinner was served in six courses.

Casilla 77 0, Santiago, Chile.
Dear Edt'lor:
Perhaps it would be well for me to exp lain just how I happen to be here and what I am doing. I came out last August (1921) under the Board of Foreign Missi ons of the Presbyterian Church, t o serve as a t eache r in th e In stituto In gles, a schoo l for boys here in Santiago . Those of you who still think of missionaries as l ong-faced folks who stand a r ound in long black robes, B ible in hand, under that everlasting pa lm tree are saying: "But why a missionary?"
My r eason is simple. r was grateful for the things that Ch ri st ianity had put into my life, for the influen ce it had had ove r me in my daily living and I wanted to share it with others in a land where the need seemed greater than in OUT own United States.
I saw no visions: My desire for service came about in a perfectly normal, natural way as the outg rowth of th e influen ces a r o und me in a Ch r is tian home For me it was not an easy task to leave home and loved ones, but since I have been here my days have been so filled with new duties and expe ri ences and folks have been so wonderful about writing t o rne that there has been no time to sit around and get home · sick.
T was fortunate, too, in fin ding another Jl 4>, Mary Firebaugh Swaney, I owa A, here to welcome me when T came.

some little thing that shows that the truths you have been trying to give along with the studies have gone home, that your seeking to show what Christianity means by living ii out day by day, has had its effect, and you climb one step higher and start all over again with renewed energy. The boys differ from our own in many ways and yet there are many points of similarity and they are a lovahle lot of youngsters despite their faults.
Now living in Chile seems quite natural to me and still there are some things which I will never get used to r guess. Among them are the reversed order of seasons and the boldness of the men who pass you on the street. As you blossom into spring and look forward to summer days we are crawling into OUT heayiest clothes and getting ou t our raincoats, for OllT cold rainy winter days are just starting . We moan at the thought of coming chilblains, for Chile has been called the land of flowers and fruits, chilblains and fl eas! Words fail me when I try to tell of the glory of the Howers here! The fruits too merit a whole page of their own. \Vords also fail me when I try to hold forth on the subject of fleas! I am a missionary and so must not use the sort of language that an adequate description of fleas demand! Suffice it to say that there never was, praise be! a bird, beast or fowl c reated with such a sneaky, low down disposition as a flea has. I have never been able to fathom lithe why" of a flea. Now chilblains are different. You can at least see some cause for them, though that doesn't make them any more pleasant. All Chilean houses are un · heated and when you remember that they are, for the most part, built like a hollow square with a patio in the center into which the rains pour in the cold wet season, you can understand that YOUT circulation might get poor and so make chilblains a probability.
I am slowly becon$1g accustomed to the Chilean way of serving each meat or vegetable as a separate course. The food, while sometimes prepared differently , doesn't tliffer much from our own and I for one have found it tremendously fattening.
To me one of the hardest things to get used to is being looked upon as a foreigner. I f you have never lived in another country you can't begin to realize the queerness of the sensation of being looked upon as different somehow. It is a good experience for it gives you a chance to get the foreigner's point of view. You realize then how many th)ngs, little in themselves, you could have done for the foreigner in your own land to make his stay a pleasurable one. If

you speak his language you could often interpret for him what is being said, a word o r a sentence or two will often start him on the right track and mak e what would otherwise be a j um b le of wo rds f o r him an int er es ting conve rsation . Nothing gives you a worse case of the blu es o r makes you feel quite as unnecessary as being in a g r oup where you ca n ' t get th e idea even of what is going on. Perhaps n ow there is some g irl in one o f your classes to wh om yo u co uld show a kindn ess by inviting h er into you r home f or a meal. It means a littl e troubl e, a littl e sacrifice on your part pe rh aps, b u t it will be trem endously worth while.
Our wee k days her e arc pretty well taken up with schoo l dut ies but ove r th e week-ends and during holidays, in whi ch this c ountry delights , we have oppo rtuniti es for trips and hikes. \Ve are pa r t icularly fortunate in having a wide awake and interesting group of Am eri ca ns here and surely have some good times together. During Easter week a numbe r of us went up to Ch ri st of the Andes ( th e st ory of wh ich is doubtless fam-iliar to you ) .

(Very often young women desiring teaching positions arc hesitant in applyinll': It "agencies" but hereafter YOli may kn ow that you have a "friend at court" if you apply al the National Teachers' Agency a Pi Beta Phi, Emily A. Lane, is the manager of the Pitlsburgh, Pa , branch. Uti" office is 304 House Building.-THI!: EDIToa)
The work of the Teachers' Agency is a kind of welfare service which has grown to vcry large proportions. Fitting the teacher to her work and filling the school position with the teacher who fits, is a scientific service. This science has been e"oh'ed by study and sea r ch in the field of candida tes and their positions. The agency has been its principal laboratory and th e clements used are the needs for teachers and the teacher's needs.
The agency opens up for the teacher, a comp r ehensive view of the school world with reference to the demand for teachers. Candidate and opportunity are brought together by carefu l gradi ng and tion. Teachers are informed of positions which suit their tion, expe rien ce, salary, etc. They are permitted to choose and apply for whatever positions conce rning which they are infonned. They may r eject tho se which do not attract them.
The agency keeps the teache r alive to educational progress. To be informed means advancement with bigger and better professional prospects. It keeps the teacher in touch with the buyers of her ice and informs her of the "market." Teachers pay nothing unti l their membership brings acceptable results. Worthwhile placement means that service is never comp l ete and final unless both teacher and school are pleased .
The National Teache rs' Agency operates five offices: Philadelphia; Pittsb"urgh, Fa .; Syracuse, N. Y.; Northampton, Mass., and Indianapolis, Ind. These cities are centers of trade communication, finance and education--excellent watchtowers from which to view a great field of opportunities. Into these offices, by p ersonal interview, letter, long distance telephone and telegram , pour hundreds of direct calls for teachers, representing every phase of the demand for men and women in the educational field.
PI PHIS IN THE PUBLIC EYE
GLADYS HAGEE MATHEW
There is no doubt that the coming co nvention will be a SINGING CONVENTION with Mrs. Steere Mathew (G lad ys H agee, Co lorado A) in charge of the con vention music.
Mrs. Mathew has achieved unusual success on the operatic and concert stage . The following from the R ocky J1!/ollntain News of Denver will be of interest to every IT B
"When Puccini. and Belasco created Th e Girl 0/ the Goldell ' ,Vest they intended to bring into the world of th e opera all our own American romance and adventure symbolized in a sort of glorified unreality. They did not expect this lovely creature of their imagination to come to iii., but to -day The Girl of th e Golden West has become a fleshand-blood reality in the musical world which centers about the Metropolitan opera house in New York.
"Among the scant half dozen extraordinarily promising American singers, Gladys Hagee Mathew has had a full measure of attention during the past winter, especially from those who are doing so much to make American opera really national art. And Mrs. Mathew is truly 'The Girl of the Golden \Vest' for she was born in Denver and lived there until her romantic marriage in New Orleans a little more than two years ago.
uGladys Hag ee as it is still so much more natural to ca ll her, was graduated from South Den ve r High School in 1914 , and from the University of Colorado in 19]8. During her four yea rs at co llege she was even better known for her charming songs than f o r her innumerable social and college activities . .
"It was Gladys Hagee who found time along with coll ege work to sing in ch ur c h and university chape l quartets. In addition she twice
sang the leading Tale in the yearly musical comedy, which was first established as 3n annual university e\'ent during her time. The girls of Pi Beta Phi still have happy chapte r traditions about the 'thrill of Gladys' singing.'
IIBut Mrs. Mathew says she always believed that some time, some way, she would find ex· pression for the g reater power which she felt her voice possessed. For this reason she has ne,'er been satisfied with her own achievements, n o matter how others have praised her s in ging. As opportunity offe r ed she con tinued studying during the winter o f 1920, at the Institute of Musical Art. And just when she r ealized that nothing short of New York had Inu ch more to offe r her, a Mr. Mathew asked her one evening, very casua ll y, if she would like to go to New York .'
"Stee r e Mathew , like his wife , is a Co lorado produ c t. H e was g r aduated from the unive r sity in 1 91 7, where he was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity and earned the righ t t o attach fE.E.' to his name . Henry L. Doherty sta rted him upon his professiona l career, and it has N,.. not taken him long to r each the GljlD\'S H ACEE M AT H EW N ew Yo rk o ffi ce, the mecca to C % rodo A which all good Doherty men go " In the year and a half they have bee n in New York, Mrs. Mathew has put in e ight hours o r more daily at music, besides managing a tin y and a lto gethe r fascinating and New Vo rki s h bandbox apart· ment. Oscar Saegner , who is one of th e most widely known and

,
r espected teachers of ope rati c singing in this count ry, has been her inst ru ctor. H e makes no secret of the fa ct that he co nsiders her among the most promising of his students.
Saegner is in a position to speak with authority for he was the first American instructor tn opera. singing to place a native singer in a leading role with the Metropolitan. l\'fr s. "fathew h as already a wide choice from which to make her debut, for Mr. Saenge r considers that she may count as well-rounded roles in her r epe rtoire six difficult pa rt s: 'Marga rit a/ from ' Mim i,' and 'Musetta,' from La B ohclIla ; 'Nedda,' from Pagliacci ; 'Mi cae la,' and 'Frasquita/ both from Carmen .
Hl\frS. Mathew 's v oice has a clear sweetness un co mmon in a colo r atura soprano, and a quality of restrained strength which gi , 'es promise of greater power to come . But a wonderful voice alone does not make an ope r a singer, and Mrs. Mathew's p r ospects are a thousand times b ri ghter because she unites with her art a charming si mpli ci t y, and what is most important of all , a passion fo r good h a. rd work.
uIf they tell us , genius is merely an infinite capacity for taking pains, then Mrs. Mathew is doubly su r e of success, for sh, is possessed of the uncommon co mbination of a remarkable voice and a talent for making drudgery easy by undertaking it with love fo r the work itsclf."-Z ilpha Ca rruth er s.

The volume of poems which Mrs Kuder has just published is a co lle c ti on of her verses which have been published in various magazines in addi ti on to new poems.
"APRIL vVEATHER "
The poems in April IVeaJ h er have an appeal which it is difficult to describe . They leave the reader with the breath of perfume from the old-fashioned garden, with the call of the sea in h is heart, with the great longing for the open spaces, or with the mist of the April rain tou chi ng his fa ce.
Literary c ritics have pronounced the poems "always technically co rrect, " yet possessed of an unusual appeal and perfection.
Mrs. Kuder is not a prolifi c poet but what she has written is far su perior to that which we designate as IIverselJ to -day. The thirtyeight poems whi ch are collected in April 'Yea/h er show great variation Of moods and as a writer in the III,depeudclIl-Gazt//e of Philadelphia has said: liThe literary workmanship through ou t is superior. Not only is there music in th e lines , but th e re is thought and substance and a careful choice of diction that is most agreeable to the reader wearied with th e cruditi es put f o rth by modern \rersifiers straining after novelty,"

During the past season Evelyn Owen has been busy appearing bef o re Women's Clubs, school and college audiences. Perhaps the sec ret of her success is the fact that she a lways strives flto bring to

WIseD ! SIN BETA'S NEW HOME
With the aid of the alumn." Wisconsin B at Beloit College bought a chapter house last spring. It is ideal in its location, for it is only a half block from the campus and within easy reach of the women's dormitories. We use the house only for meetings and social gatherings, since, under the present rules, the women of Beloit College are not permitted to live outside the residence halls. The chapter and
WISCONSIN' BETA'S CHAPTER HOUSE
have the use of three large downstairs rooms and the pOTch, The upper floors have been rented.
The purchase of the house was made possible by the Pi Beta Phi House Corporation, an incorporated company of IT <I> alumnre. A cash payment was made and a mortgage was taken for the remaining sum . A certain amount of this is being paid off each year by notes. IT <J> is the first of the women's fraternities on our campus to own its chapte r house.

the name of THE ARROW. \ Ve changed it name of Pierce Arrow.
Wh ile I was the o riginat o r of the trade mark, I must te ll you that Mr. Begg has been responsible for its significance. No doubt when he thai we had chosen a trade mark s ignifi cant of Pi Beta Phi, he immediately thought DC the chain which bound him to Pi Beta Phi, and the golden emblem in which now and then men find a pearl.
I am enclosi ng :1 copy of o ur house orgao whi ch originally had of the con Ri ct with the trade
Howc:ver. the Jordan idea will interest you. The man on the left or tht: illustration on the front cove r is Mr Begg, to whom Pi Beta Phi has such powerful significance. The man on the right i s the one who is re sponsib le for Mr Begg's opportunity to prove this s ignificance.
\ Vhen t he J ordan trade - mark was first found necessa r y 1 spent many hours in the Chicago Publi c Library looking over all the trade-marks that had been regis te r ed, and found n o thing that suited me. The trade -mark is simp l y the result of many efforts with a pad of paper aDd a pencil to combine geometrical fi(ures in a distinctive way_ My first idea was the combi nat ion o f two trian(Ies, but they bhnded t ogether so nicely in the arrow head that we determined upon that.
But you must nol deduct from this explanation that the Jordan arrow has no Pi Beta Phi si gni ficance. Whil e I have been dire<:ted for many years by an Alpha Phi , I am quite ce rtain that Mr. Begg has been well managed by a Pi Beta Phi.
The trade -mark it self meaDS nothing unless it is backed by a motor car that is properly designed and built. Mr. Begg is responsible for the success of the ca r in an engineering way, and I am quite sure that Mrs. Begg is responsible for Mr. Bege's success in every way.
Therefore, t think we may say that the Jordan arrow has a very powe rful Pi Beta Phi significance_

WHA T O U R C OLLEGE AND CHAPT E R ARE DOING FOR THE HEALTH OF WOMEN STUDE N TS
(What a Fraln-nity Gir l Thinks)
(Continued from December issue)
\VEEKLY HEALTH REPORT
Aside from the well developed physical department , Simpson College has no very definite program for the promotion of the health of the women students. In this department all the w ome n in college
THE HEALTH OF WOMEN STUDENTS 443
are given deJinite and systematic physical training. Various sports are taken up during the year, such as soccer, hockey, hikes, and basketball. This tends to develop strong physical bodies. Shower baths are required after every class or game.
Simpson is very fortunate in having a fine college nurse who lives at the girls' dormitory and is constantly busy keeping the girls well. Every case of illness must be reported to ber.
At the chapter house definite rules as to the hours, sleeping arrange· ments, etc., axe in force and the chaperon makes a week.ly report concerning, among other things, the health of her girls.
Although these arrangements may seem rather inefficient, nevertheless the amount of illness is surprisingly small among the students of Simpson College.
IOWA BETA.
EATING REGULARLY
Iowa [' has been striving to establish in the chapter house a set of rules to comply in part at least with the Health Program advocated by ou r fraternity. For this purpose we had Miss Winnifred R. Tilden, head of the physical education department give us a talk concerninlt things that would be advisable to do. An "Everybody to Bed at Ten· Thirty" movement was agitated and its obedience enforced. Rules pertaining to the diet, such as ove rcomi ng habits of eating between meals and indulging in too ri ch food s were made and a committee appointed to keep a watchful eye on our health Hcampaign," and to see that everyone had the right amount and right kind of exercise. Iowa r feels as though a step has been made in this direction and will do everything to cooperate with those in charge of the fraternity H ea!th Program.
IOWA GAMMA.
FREE M EoreAL CARE
I think none of us devote enough time to the important question of health. Once during the year we devote a fraternity evening to a discussion on health given by a doctor. He gives us general points about health, and instru cts us in preventive measures. Our medical schoo l, which ranks among the first in the country gives the student of the university free medical care in the university hospital. The university also maintains a student health department which conducts medical and physical examinations and gives free consultations and
medical aid. The Children's Hospital (a state institution) has many experts on its force, among whom is Dr. Steiner, one of the foremost foot specialists in the country. The students may obtain free medical ca re for foot ai lm ents from Dr. Steiner and his assistant The unh'ersity requir es two years of gymnasium work for the girls.

HYGIENE LECTURES
The physical education department of Waslhington University r eq uire s a physical examina ti on, at the .beginning of the year, of every girl r egistered in gymnasium c lasses. All defects and weakncsse, are noted, and the work throughout the year is an attempt to corre : t them. Freshman girls are also required to attend weekly hygiene lectures. The nlembers of Missouri B feel that their greatest opportunity to promote the health of women students , both in the co ll ege and in the chap t er, is by cooperating with the physical education department, and also by having health talks throughout the year as recommended by our II B <I> Health Program.

H ow TO KE EP FIT
In connection with physical edu cation every freshman and sophomore woman is required to have a physi cal examination. This includes heart, lungs, throat, and eyes. J)r. Mary Atherton of Springfield tal ks with the women of the college once or twice each year about simp le remedies, and how to keep fit. Talks on hygiene are often given;t house meetings in the dormitory. The matron of the donnitory has charge of quite an extensive medicine chest. The chapter decided shortly before the close of last semester to have health talks about once every two months in connection with the regular meetings. So far this plan has not been put into execution.

WOMEN'S ATHLETICS JUST STARTED
Until lately Nebraska University has not been noted for its athletic activities for women students The past three years have witnessed a great change in this field. The various sports , swimming, hockey, tennis, etc., have been provided for and the students urged to participate in them. A fair amount of college credit has been o ffered as an added inducement.
Our chapter has followed strictly the college rul es conce rning physical examination and has urged upon th e younge r girls as they have ente r ed upon their co Hege ca r ee r the advisability of benefiting from the college sports. ] n our lif e within our TI <I> home health has been of primary conside r ation in the making of rules and in the arrangement of schedu les.

college is required to undergo a thorough medical examination. Those who arc found to be in poor health, or are under-weight and nervous are given directions about improving their conditions, and aTC told to report back to the doctor at stated intervals for observation. All students are required to have two years of physical training; and must take this work up in their freshman year. Texas B has started, again this year , the custom of having a health talk at one of the meetings of the chapter, once a month. The committee invites some prominent person who is interested in health conditions, such as a doctor or a social service worker , to advise the girls. We have found this to be very enjoyable and profitable.

HEREDITARY ILLNESS STUDIED
The health of her students is one of Newcomb ' s first cares. The physical education department maintains a special office furnished with modern equipment for as certaining the physical condition of every student . At the. beginning of each year the students are examined and the results of the examination filed. By examined, we mean in no sense, an ordinary medical examination, for, aside from the personal in formation ea ch student gives about her health in the past, certain measurements are taken, height, weight, chestexpansion and others, and facts about the student's family are asce rtain ed. This last information is he lpful in bringing to light hereditary illnesses, thus allowing p'hysicians ample time to prevent their recurrence in the present generat.ion. If the proportions of the body are not correct, corrective exercises are given by the physica l edu cation department. A t the close of the year each girl is again examined, and a comparison made between her condition at the beginning and end of the year. If this compariso n is n o t favorable her family is notified. The faculty and students of Newcomb heartily endorse all outdoor sports.

A voluntary student tax of $10 provides for the furnishing of free medical attention during the whole college year to the student who nlay be unfortunate as far as health is concerned. This feature of the voluntary tax covers not only medical attention but hospital treatment as well for a period of two weeks.

Massachusetts A has as yet no definite health program. \Ve have hitherto con fined our health activities to a general interest in athletics. All of the girls are more or less interested in outdoor exercise as the hest means of insuring good health. Some of the girls take long Saturday afternoon hikes out into the count ry j others a re enthusiastic over basketball and tennis.
Several of the Boston Alumnre are either doctors o r doctors' wives. The chapter feels that with their coope ration it will be able to work up a very c r editahle heahh program for this year.

Last spring under the auspices of the \\l omen's Athletic Association a health campaign was started. Each girl had a ca rd which ",vas filled out daily for two weeks. In it were such items as: bath, eight hours sleep, three meals, nothing to eat between meals , exercise, rela xatio n for at least ten minutes. Each of these items coun ted a

From time to time we have recorded in these pages the development of various phases of work of our School, industrial , medical, social, all of which have left a decided imprm on the co mmunity of Gatlinburg. It is a long time since w e have devoted space to a discussion of the pure ly educational s id e of the work {rom the viewpoint of the schoolroom. Yet it is the oldest part of o ur entire sett lement scheme and in the schoolroom life li es the g reatest hope for the future For this reason space in thi s issue is given over entirely 10 conside ration of this topic and no one is so well able to discuss it as the highly s uccessful principal of our Pi Beta Phi School.
TALES OF CLASSROOM AND PLAYGROUND
By HELE N CHEW
To tell you that we have a five-roomed 1 pupils enrolled, seven tea chers, ten grades, with courses in cooking, sewing, weaving and shop work would hardly help you to ,r ecognize our schoo\ as an institution sonlewhat different from other schoo ls of its class. And no doubt the same everyday trials and pleasures of all schoohooms a Te experienced here, for boys and girls are alike the world over. But the little personalities of the children, developed through generati ons of isolation, g iv e the school a cha rac te r which is almost indefinable. It is through these little cha racteristics that yo u learn to know institutions as well as human life. It would take an able pen to bring our school to you in such a way, but adding this little glimpse of school life to the health work and farm activities about which you have been reading this year, you may be able t o recognize the school as a whole in its vital relation to our community. The influence of the school l and by that I mean every phase of activity included in the settlement, is not confined to the pupils or

their families. When a situation r equires the advice and suppo rt of the school, everyone is ready to take the responsibility, if expedient. The problem of the church house could not be solved without Miss Evelyn's advice and Mr. Mattil's aid in drawing the plans. Elections are held in the school yard, for which we supply chairs and tables. There is no other meeting place for public addresses and socia l gath· crings, and now until the new church house is completed al1 services will be held at the schoolhouse. With all these the real life of the school is its pupils, their everyday activities and pOSSibilities.
'f'ardiness and irregular attendance are two of the local prob lems. A glimpse of the roads, - without the pleasure of traveling them, would be sufficient excuse for truancy, most of our friends would say, and indeed they are-but the temperamental slowness of the mountain boy transcends his desire for punctuality and e\'en the brightest, driest days find stragglers at nine or even late r
One of the aims of education is to develop the ahility to use those things nearest to hand. To find a use for the natural Tennessee rocks which adorn the school ground would ta x the wisdom of many. A stone for every minute lost from school would hardly clear the field for action but the result will be evident in the foundation of some future building. Nothing has furnished more amusement and gained more pe rman ent success than the r ock pile in the far corne r of the school yard. This may savor of the old galley idea, yet the motive and attitude of the offenders were quite to the cont r ary. The scheme worked sp l endidly as long as the cu lprit s were little fellows (the authority of the teacher is still unimpaired), but it was with fear and tremb ling that the same sentence was pronounced on the big boys. After much deliberation they began the rock gathe rin g, giving the impression of slipping away every minute. It was not until the tim e was up and they were safely ou t of the school yard that the outcome of the venture was assu r ed.
The result of the discipline was soon very noticeable in our outdoor basketball court which was cleared in this way and ready for our first game, in fact the first game the players had ever seen The interest in the game was high, their t eam work quite good, but the skill in throwing baskets still undeveloped. Th e rain had made the co urt ve r y muddy and the new suits and bare knees soon gave evidence of insecu re footing . Their faces glowed with the violent e ffort they were making. Never before had the boys moved with such speed and

quickness. For once they were shaken out of their habitual deliberateness. It was not without its humorous touch. Several boys insisted upon wearing their caps which were frequently knocked off. Nothing prevented the owner from stopping the game to replace the lost article on his head. EYen Mr. Denton's IILet the old cap go" couldn't move the owne r . A score of 70- 1 would have discouraged most boys but not ours and when the weather penn its , they line up for dai l y practice.
The boys are taking another step forward this year by the organization of a Hi -Y.* \V'ith us such progress is very slow but two boys are going to the Conferen ce of East Tennessee Hi- Y Clubs at Morrist own which will no doubt b r oaden their vision of school life, its activities and possibilities. We hope they will bring home an inspiration for all the boys.
The girls have su rpassed the hoys in that phase of school life. Until this year the boys and gi rl s have always had their literary society togeth er, but the needs were so different that this year th e experimen t of dividing them ha s been tried. The success with the girls is very marked Few high s c hool girls of their age would show supe ri o r abiHty and poise in conducting a meeting to the two girls here who have served as presidents the first term. Their [ear of appearing before an audience i s grad ually disappearing and their ability to plan programs was shown in the Christmas meeting. Eve TY guest was p r esented with a spray of holly which they we r e requested to pin 011 Every girl answeTed roll call with a seasonal ve r se or Bible t ex t , and after the entire compa ny had sung several ca rols a ve r y delightful p r ogram was given, every number of which was executed by th e girls , even to the piano accompaniment.
Last yea r the S chool gave The Birds' Chris/mas Carol, and this year we shall give Lillie MI!1I. Nothing delights these mountain boys more than dramati c work. We hope to win first in the oratorical contest at Sevier vi ll e this year, as we did la st year \ Ve are handicapped a littl e in these activities as well as in athleti cs, since we arc the only two-year high school that particfpates in these events. E\-en if we l ose out in many meets now the time will co rne when we can enter on equal terms with the others , and ou r place will be assured us.

tion for all educational progress. Yet when you remember that every fact they learn is through conscious effort, nothing is absorbed unconsciously through the years at home and outside associations, it is no wonder that LORdon as the capital of England is as unfamiliar as Teheran in Persia, that California and Massachusetts are as foreign count ri es as France or High school pupils who have never seen a street car or a business block, railroad t r ain or brick sidewalks have difficulty in forming concepts of the social, economic and politica l institutions of society. These tests were especially wen-fitted for us because the pupi1s' knowledge of facts was of no consideration, only his ability to think.
Lest you receive the idea that the path of a mountain school-teacher is strewn with success at every turn, here are some of OUI difficulties and worries. In 3. number of homes, instead of making school life a serious business, there is a tendency on the part of the parents to humor their children in their notions. Then the teacher must make a series of visits to try to reconcile the sulking child without losing her position of dignity and authority as well as not antagonizing the family. The desire for an education is never great enough to rise above th e usual schoolroom difficulties. Possibly three months lat er you will learn of the circumstance which led some pupil to walk out. The attempt to hold a class together until their second year of high school is difficult. The present sophomore class was the eighth g rade, of course, three yea rs ago, and without the loss of a member it had rea ched its l ast year in our sc hool. In O ctober the first b low came when serjous eye trouble prevented Lillian from continuing _ Another l oss come in December when Lana "stopped out" to com · plete her sister's term of teaching "up Baskins." An aunt required the services of a third dudng an illness. The removal of the Whaley family to a new farm upon which a great deal of work must be done, such as building and clearing land , took the oldest boy from school two-thirds of the time, l eaving one boy to hold up the honor of the class _
Seldom does such misfortune befaJl a class in that way. Nine finished last year whi ch was ususually good. The freshman class, though very young, some having commenced school when they were three, is a strong one. The eighth grade is weak, made up largely of stragglers who cannot possibly finish the work satisfactorily enough to enter high school. Some days there are two in the class, some days maybe seven, making progress very slow. Then again the
seventh grade is a large c1ass and a strong onc that can very possibly progress normally a grade a ycar, especially if we ha\'e a nine months' school year. The sixth grade is another strong class as is also the fourth, but the fifth is made up largely of those pupils who never progress by merit of work, too old for the grade, too indifferent for effort. The high school is rather free from that type because such pupils rarely reach those grades before reaching the age at which they can drop out. However, there arc very few boys of real school age Qut of school this year.
A class in agriculture for the boys and men not enrolled for regular school work will reach those who h:l\'c outgrown the schoolroom. By and by some of these older ones will come strolling back and then the problem will he to find them a place, a task for which onc must be equal in such a school as this. \Vith the spring work season near at hand the difficulty of organized progress in some classes is increased for the children do the work, even the very littlest tots.
I n spite of these discouragements each year brings us a little nearer to our goal. More children stay with us every year, parents feel the need and try to p lan their work accordingly, and there is a greater desire on the part of the pupils themselves. Every year finds some of our pupils enrolled in other schools which can take them farther than we can. rr we continue nine months this year, for the first time, it wil1 be because of their wish. Our success cannot be measured by the facts stored away in their heads but hy their awakened desire to learn and to seek after those things by which the next generation of mountain people wil1 take a step forward. \Vhen we use this as our scale to measure success or failure the Pi Phi School need not be ashamed.

BOOK REVIEWS
Sergeant York alld His People, by Sam K. Cowan. Funk and Wagnalls Company, publishers, 354·360 Fourth Ave., New York, N. Y. Price, $2.00 net.
So long as the human ra ce endures, hero stories will be a part of the literature of all languages, and heroes' names will be emblazoned on the records of all nations. From the mountains of Tennessee, from a humble cabin home, came the man who did what 1\'larshall Foeh in decorating him said was "the greatest thing accomplished by any private soldier of all the armies in Europe." The author of Sergeant York and His Pe o ple in describing the volume says: "It is but a story of the strength and simplicity of a man-3 young manwhom the nation has honored for what he has donc, with something in it of those who went before and left him as a legacy, the qualities of mind and heart that enabled him to fight his fight in the Forest of the Argonne."
I t is the record of these ancestors, however, and of his contemporaries, friends and neighbors whose lives have influenced young York. which has specia J interest for Pi Phi readers. for the author pictures a community whose characteristics are similar in many respects to the one which we have made peculiarly our own through our Settlement School.
How truly the author understands these people and how sympathetically he portrays them may be suggested from the following paragraphs selected from his pages:
"So the mountaineer to -day is the transplanted colonis t of the eighteenth centu ry-he is the backwoodsman of the days of Andrew Ja ckson; but his life has the hospitality, the genuineness and simplicity of the pioneer. It has been said of the residents of the Cumberland 1\'lountains that they are the purest Anglo-Saxons to be found to-day and not even England can produce so clear a strain. They are Anglo-Saxons in their blood and their customs They are Colonial Americans in their speech and credences.
"They know they are not ignorant, except as everyone is ignorant who lacks contacts with new customs and changes in world progress They are fully cognizant of their lack of that knowledge which Icomes out of a book! But, whatever their educational shortcomings, no one has ever laid at their door the cha rge of stupidity."
462 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI
The book will repay the reader both as a story of a remarkable deed of valor and as a r eco rd of the characteristics of a body of our own people whose potential power for good in the development of OUT country is very great.

o APRIL 28, PI BETA PHI will celebrate Founders' Day in recognition of the women who had a vision, who dreamed dreams for ou r fraternity and to whom we owe our existence. VVherever two o r more Pi Phis are in the same locality they should meet and pay tribute to the wumen who in 1867 founded our organization at Monmouth College, Monmouth, Il1. Perhaps the m ost unique F o und ers' Day celebration held last year was in Chile. There in a foreign land with the sound of foreign tongues on every side, two Pi Beta Phis dined together in honor of the day. And although they dared not rise and sing Pi Phi songs they paid homage with their thoughts and memories. What are you planning to do this year?
AT PRESENT the widespread discussion among men's fraternities concerning the hiring of hostesses for fraternity houses is most gra tifying. The discussion in itself shows that our young men are awake to the present-day tendency to disregard co nventions and cu lture From The Shield of Phi Kappa Psi we quote: "It has been the practice of the fraternities in many universities t o employ a mature woman as matron of the house. There has been much discussion among frat e rnities as to the advisability of adopting such a p l an, but the widespread distribution of this system would indicate that there is something worth while in it. There is no doubt that such a plan lends efficiency to the fraternity system and at the same time, places a c hapter on a higher moral plane in a college community than would otherwise be the case. A tendency to neglect social co nventions is rapidly developed when there is a 1ack of the r es training influence which makes the observance of these customs necessary." The entire discussion of this subject in The Shield is most commendab le.
CHOOSING YOUR DELEGATE is one of the most important duties to be co nsidered by your chapter. Your delegate will represent to the rest of the fraternity your chapter "type." Do not send a girl to convention simp1y because you feel she deserves the honor since someone else was elected president or received other recognition. Disregard personal feelings and choose the young woman whom you consider most representative of your group and who can also bring back the greatest amount of inspiration and national information to you. Send someone who is not afraid to rise on convention fl oo r and
present yo ur problems and ideas j choose someone wh o is a qui ck thinker and who ca n make decisions wisely .

At present the university campus is fit for a model of Whittier's "Snowbound," a true fairyland ,in its snowy blanket and winter attire. But everywhere is the evidence of a fe s tival. after ex:aminations. The second winter carnival for the un iversi ty will be a great affair. Preparations are being made to make this even a greater success than the one last year, with skiing, snowshoeing, skat ing, and various other a c tivities, including a masquerade ball.
The annual initiation banquet and dance i s to be held the week -e nd of February 16, and for this enthusias tic plans are being made. The chapter is ex:pecting a great homecoming.

Considerable rivalry is ev iden ced among the frate r nities in the matter of carrying off the attendance honors. Just at sundown the individual groups march to the campus The many hundred spectators are seated in circle fashion, a large fountain being sit uated in the cente r. One by one each fraternity enters the ejrcle singing a marching song on the way. Gray heads and big turn -outs are greeted by vociferous applause.

FRATERNITIES AT LANSING
Si n ce the removal o f the ban against fraternities at Mi chigan Agri c ultural Co ll ege a year ago, two women 's fraternities have c hartered l ocals, Alpha Phi and Alpha Gamma Delta. Alpha Gamma Rho, which limits its membership to the agricultural division, has also entered the college. Phi Delta Theta and Delta Tau Delta both had strong chapters in the college for twenty - five years prior to the interdi c t against frat e rniti es. Th e re is a widespr e:ld m ove me nt among the alumni to change the name of the institution, eliminating the name "Ag ri cu ltural " whi ch they cla im falsely describes the college.-Tlle Scroll of Phi Del ta Theta.

The Scroll of Phi Delta Theta quotes:
State College , Pa., September 23.-Calling upon the colleges of the co untry to lead in a movement for "sensib l e economy," President John M Thomas, of the Pennsylvania Slate College, to -day addre ssed the students of the institution on "the n eed of keeping co lle ge expenses down to n reasonable figure." Dr. Thomas deplored the tenden cy among all cl::tsses of people to increase their persona l expenses unnecessarily from year to year and proposed :l r e form in the direction of economy in student life.
In his address of welcome to the students beginning the new co lle ge year, the president urged the undergraduates to re s trict their expenditures for social, athle ti c. musical, and dramatic activities. He said, in part:
"College education has become unnecessa rily expensive . Th e sacrifices neccs · sary for many parents are more seve re than they need t o be, and a l arge number of sludents 3re handicapping themselves by larger debts for their educa ti on than s hould be necessary."

A COSTLY LESSON
At a meeting of Psi chapter of Phi Ga.mma Delta at Wabash College on Oc tober 18. '9:12, it was decided to have :1 photograph made of the charter of the chapttr and to place the original document in 11 fireproof vault.
With chara cte risti c un de rgraduate tendenciu, the e"ecution of the decision was delayed.
On October 2Q. IQ22. the home of Psi c hapleT was destroyed by fire. A handful of ashes is all that remains of the precious . priceless parchment, which was issued in 1866 and which can ne\'er be repla ced.

THE FRATERNITV
The man who joins :l fraternity loses something of his independence. lIe must submit to regulations. he must learn to adapt him'lelf to the conditions of home life, and to the idiosyncrasies of a score or more of people. lIe will often ha\'e to yield his desires and his rights, perhaps. to the will of the organit.ation, for those who go into an organization must be willing to do what will bring the greatest good to the greatest number. He must learn to get on with people, to give up, to be unselfish, to do that which will be most helpful and advantageous to his brothers. Man y fellows do not like to do this. and so metime s parents do not wish them to learn, so that such men would make poor fraternity men, and they would be unhappy and make their friends unhappy in th e making.-Dt'lta Kappa Epsilon Qllorlt''''J'_
Phi Kappa Psi states in a recent Quarterl) , that it IIhas received the first hequest ever made to the fratcrnity hy a member. The endowment fund recei"ed n otice in Septemher that Brother Rohert F.
