CONVENTION IN CANADA
"This Js the forest primeval, The murmuring pInes and t.he hemIOCk-"
The romance and charm of the Canadian woOOS and lakes beckon us to meet in Convention at Bigwin Inn, Lake of Bays, Ontar io, Canada from June 22 to 27.
A call has been sent out by Grand President Amy B. Onken IIrging all members of Pi Beta Phi to attend our Twenty-Seventh Biennial Convention at which we shall work and s ing and play in the quiet and peace of the Canadian l ake country. Convention means the making and the renewal of friendships ; the creation of a deeper enth usia sm for and a clearer under stan ding of the objects and aims of Pi Beta Phi; the realization of the bigness and scope of our Fraternity. It is the a lumna's oppo rtunity to aid in the future plans of OUT organizati on; it is the active's chance to participate in the present development and th e solution of the problems which come to every live and growing group of fraternity women.
How often do we misjudge others simply because we do not know them personally and do not under stand their motives. At Convention we have the opportunity to meet and to know personally the women who, because of their offices, direct the work of the Fraternity; to meet and visit with ollr beloved Founders; to converSe with the members of alumn., clubs and to exchange ideas with them; and to discuss problems of everyday college life with the active chapter representatives. Misunderstandings which may have arisen through letters or printed in struct ion s van ish with a friendly smile and a chat. New friendships are formed which are lasting.
Under the very efficient direction of Dr. Edith H. Gordon, Convention Guide, plans have been made for taking care of our every need and desire.

(See December ARROW, 1923, pages 287, 288).
RECREATION
One of Bigwin's greatest attractions is the opportunity which it affords for outdoor sport and recreation of vario us kinds.
The hard tenni s courts of which there are four, are carefully kept in excellent condition and are sit uated among the trees close to the dormitory. A tennis tournament will be played during the course of the week of Convention.
A golf trophy will be presented by the Inn and the golf champio n sh ip of the Fraternity will be decided on the hotel course of nine holes which is laid out to afford a beautiful view from every tee.
Bowling on the green may be a novelty t'o many of our Convention guests. They will find it a very pleasant and interesting game. Th e greens shaded by the s urrounding trees, are placed beside the tennis courts, and onlookers may enjoy both games at once.
Those who love the water will no doubt want to spend their le isure tim e in or on the beautiful Lake of Bays. The s wimming is excellent and there is a sma ll beach beside the dock f or in experienced swimmers. One of the features of the a Iternoon set aside for recreatiOn will be a program of water sports. Canoes, rowboats and sai lboats may be obtained from the boat house connected with th e hotel for a small sum. Competent boys may al so be engaged t o manage the sai lboats. I.aunches

MOTOR TO CONVENTIO
It is possible to motor to Convention-that is, to Huntsville and then tlIke the boat for Bigwin Inn. The trip is a lovely one by motor north from Toronto, through most beautiful co untry over fair road s . Motors could be left at Huntsville. There are two boats daily leavin g Huntsville for Bigwin Inn: one at 7:00 A. M. and the other at 3:40 P. lIf. Definite information concern ing hotel accommodation at l-lulltsvilJe in case a motor party reached there in th e evening, may be obtained from the Convention Guide.
CONVENTION CLOTHING
Clothing for our Canadian Convention shou ld be of the simplest summer and sports wear. The only formal function will be the banquet at which simple evening dresses will be worn. It will be necessa ry for everyone to bring one heavy wrap or sweater as there are occasional cold, rainy days through the summer, and sometimes in June it is chilly at night. A bathing s uit for the swimmers and hiking suits for those taking part in sports will be in order. Canada has been promised a hot summer but even warm day s there is alway s a coo l breeze at night.
TRIP TO NIAGARA
For those who are not staying over the weekend for the houseparty following Convention, plans are being made for a trip to Niagara Falls. Thi s will m ean spending the night 111 Toronto and making the trip the next morning, Jun e 29, preferably by boat. The boat trip of two and one half hours is a delightful one .

WELCOME TO BIGWIN INN
'1'0 the Members of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity:
One year ago, it was the writer's privilege and pleasure to say a word of welcome to members of Kappa Kappa Gamma Fraternity, they having decided to hold their 1924 Convention at Bigwin Inn.
They came-over four hundred st r ongstayed with us for a week and left us with that feeling that comes when something BIG has been accomplished. They claimed it was the best Convention they had eve r had and we knew it was the best we ever had.
A few weeks later, w e were plea sed to learn from Mi ss Onken, your Grand President, that Bigwin Inn had been chosen as the headquarter s of the 1925 Convention of Pi Beta Phi.
Now, I have the honor and privilege of bidding you welcome and I do so, assuring you of our keen int erest in your coming and our sincere des ire to cooperate in all ways possible-to do all that you would have u, do, in an endeavor to place thi s Convention in the posilion of being successful in the highest degree.
A brief descripti on of Bigwin Inn and its environs will serve to acquaint you with what to expect in the way of accommodation and, to those, whose first visit to Canada this
will be, a word or two about Cu sloms Regulations will not co me amiss.
Bigwin Inn, unlike other summer resort hotels, is of a distinct type, n ot erected altogether for th e purpose of gain but rather for the comfort and convenience of those whose patronage is desirable and to whom will appeal the splendid results of forethought and vision.
Picture an island two and a half miles in length and a half mile in width in the midst of the beautifu l Lake of Bays, Highlands of Ontario, some 1100 feet above sea level; an is land on which , at one time, dwelt the Algonquin Indians; on which a Hudson Bay Post was estab li shed, where trading with the Indians was then the only means of existence for many and the only method

of transacting business; this we have termed "The fir s t Convention." Then picture the Wigwam supplanted by a series of fine substantial buildings of concrete and stone construction, an hotel with every modern comfort and convenience and every facility for re s t and recreation-The Bigwin Inn . This series of buildings comprises two S leeping Lodges; an Administration Buildi ng, sometim es call ed the Soc ia l Han; and a Dining Hall; all connected with great covered walk s; also a Boat House and a large Dancing Pavilion. The Sleeping Lo dge s-East Lodge and ""est Lodge, are identi cal in cons tructi on and each one contains one hundred and forty - two rooms, arranged on the first and second floors, that a bathroo m is loca ted between each two rooms, whil st every r oom on the third flo or of th , \>,'est Lodge ha s a private bath . The entire hotel will be place d at the disposal of Pi Ueta Phi . The Administration Building or Social Hall is commonly re ferred to as the Rotunda. It is one hundr.d
, and s eve 11 t Y -s i x
e feet in length and one hundr ed fe et at lhe widest part, with a fi fte en f 0 a t verandah along three s id es. Here , you have the o ffice s of the hotel; the post offic e; local and long di stance teleph one and connection wit h the Canad ian Nationa l Telegraphs; the new sstand or tuck sh o p; and this is where guest s foregather for soci al entertainment , the musicale, the rubber of bridge or the sing-song Here, too, is where you may have some of your business sessions, if you so desire. Then, there is the mezzanine floor, off which th e re are severa l spacio us balconies which, together with the various alcoves, reading, writing and card rooms, are planned to take care of your every desire. In this building, there are no less than nine open fire places, so that a little coolness in the weather is not permitted t o become uncomfortable.
Dining Hall Btgwln. over l ooking the lak
You will be delighted, too, with the Dining Hall. It is located perhaps a hund red yards f rom the Rotunda-a great concrete structure of impressive design, Venetian in appearance and surrounded by a promenade overlooking the waters of the lake. Here, you will be served meals of the high est o rder ; well balanced meals more of the home cooking variety, rather than the hotel kind; and served in that dainty, unobtnlsive manner, peculiar to Higwin Inn and now a matter of tradition. Afternoon Teas on the promenade are an attractive feature. Excellent programs are rendered during the luncheon and dinner hours, each day, by the splendid Bigwin Orchestra, and in the evenings, except Sunday, they play for an h o ur and a hal f or two hours' dancing in a pavilion expressly erected for that purpose. The dancing floor is in keeping with the occasion and many delightful hours are thus spent. It may be that your own program will not permit of dancing, in which case, the Bigwin Orchestra will be available for any other entertainment, should you desire its services.
Doubtless, you will have noted , from the foregoing description that, with the variou s buildings being separated, the sleeping quarters being apart f r om the others and the const ru ction 0 f
One of the many fire places In the rotunda concrete and s ton e, Bigwin Inn is practically fireproof. It is being realized more and more that this is an important fa cto r in connection with hotels; and our guests may

f ee l ass ured that they can rest, secure aga in st any chance of a co nflagrati on.
Now f or a littl e outdoor recreation.
To bring your golf clubs, will be quite in order, for we have a beautiful nine-hole course, not so difficult-b ut what they call "sporty" and it is to be hoped that yotir business sess ions will b e o f such duration as to permit of devoting so me time to this most popular game of all time. Then, too, we have four exce ll ent clay tennis courts. They have been pronounced the fine st in Canada and, since the Northern Ontario Championships T o urnament is played here, annually, and as th ose, to whose pronouncement we have just referred, were participants, we are inclined to be li eve the m . Ladi es, as a rule, are not quite so keen about Lawn Bowling, though many of them, espec i ally in Canada, are quite proficient in thi s form of outd oo r spor t . Th e re are three fine bow ling greens and it might be well to consider thi s item
Then there is boating, fishing and bathing. The Bigwin Boat Livery, which is now o wned and operated by the hotel company, i s well equipped wit h all kinds of wat er craft-fis hing tackle and g uid es being also available . To ha ve a regatta on the li st of events is but a sma ll matter, from the viewpoint of arrangement and, with the regatta, goes the swimm in g and diving contests, tilting canoe, and oth er water spo rt s; but bathing is som ething that is always avai labl e and acceptab le-many guests taking the morning dip. And the bes t of it is that all these forms of r ecreation are within one minute from the hotel and really should be included in a Convention program. It probably sho uld be menti oned that th e on ly fees charged, in con n ect ion with th e recreation, are for boating and golf . These fees a r e quit e reasonable ,
too. We wo uld ca ll attention, also, to the fac t that you may rent golf cl uhs, tennis racquets and how ling ba ll s, if you s ho uld n ot find it conve nient to bring them with you. T he tu ck shop will be pleased to care for yo u in these particulars as well as in the essen tial s such as toilet articles, drug s uppli es, con fectionery, so u ve nirs , kodak s uppli es, developing films, e t c ., etc.
Regarding Customs Regulations, I w o uld ju st like t o remind yo u that your Convention Guide, Dr . Edith H. Gordon, and her Committee at 'I'OI·onto, will be giving you informat ion and inst ru cti o ns, from time to time , and you s ho uld adhere closely t o them- in fact foll ow them to the le t ter. It i s a most important ite m and one ove r whi ch none of liS have any contro l, whatever . We simply have t o accept the rul es and regulations as determined by the Governments of United States and Canada. We may be able to have some of th e regulations mod i fie d t o suit th e occasion but the only thing to do is to re membe r the in s tru ct ion s given you and carry them thro ugh.
1 have had the pleasure of mee ting and conferring with Dr. Gordon and her Committee, on two o r three occas ions and I know that you and your affairs are in good hands.
Once more-B igwin welcom es you. We are really interested and our inte rest will continue until after y o u have had you r Convention and return ed home again . That thi s may be the best eve r, is our sincere wi sh and w e s hall do all within our power to help make it so . Whate ve r we may do will be in keeping with yo ur high stand ard and o ur s; at all tim es, worthy of Pi Be ta Phi. Yours respec tfully,
J AS. G . REID, Manager Bigwin Inn.

At no other time in the history of Physical Education have athletics held as prominent a place as they do today. This has
MARY NESTOR MOORE KaOeat A
been the outcome of many years of labor by those interested in t rying to put before the public the importance of athletics for women from a health and recreational standpoint. The old idea that athletics were for men on ly is fast disappearing and in its place we find a grow in g demand for 111 0re organ ized play f or women. T he detr im enta l disadvan ta ges that fostered this o ld idea have been overcome by close s upervi sion and regulations by authorities. Hardly a year passes but the rules gove rning certain athletics are a mended in a way to benefit the player. The progress in thi s field has been very s low. In the so uth even today w e find many schools where the o ld idea is still prevalent.
In orde r to bring about a ch a nge it wa s first necessary t o st udy athletics in their relation to health. Eac h game was analyzed, its good and bad points studied and grad u a l cha nges made. One of th e fir s t disadvantages that was noticed was th e la ck of proper s u pe r vis ion. Therefore it became necessary t o draw up certain restr icti ons as to tim e limit , training and playing rul es.
A study of the hi s tory of basketball for women will bring o ut very clearly the c han ges mos t games hav e und ergone s ince women fir s t took part in them. It wa s found that girls participating in lfames were playing according to men's rule s. Educator s felt that men' s rul es we re not des ired but they were not ready t o take each specific poin t o f th e game an d change it. The thr ee co urt game res ulted in a modifi ca ti o n but this game was entirely too res tricted and lacked the appeal men 's basketball possessed. Each year a great many points which had previously been th ought detrimental and · di sca rd ed, but have since been proven otherwise when clo se ly regulated, have been added to the game.
In April, 19 23, a conference on athletics and physical edu cation for women and girls was called by Mrs. Herbert Hoover
Tn ABBOW or PI BETA. PHI
at the suggestion of the National Amateur Athletic Federation of America. At this conference problems connected with all types of athletics were studied and resolutions concerning them adopted. It was decided that athletics should be encouraged and provided for and that certain r egulations regarding them should be enforced. It was resolved that only compet ent women who have had adequate instruction in health and physical education and who for that reason realize the s ignifican ce of close supervision of athletics should be placed in charge.
Physiql education . departments realizing the benefit of making exercise attractive to students as well as beneficial have permitted sports classes to be substituted for the required work in physical training. In these classes, however, the emphasis is not placed on competition of the winning of the game as much as upon the recreational value. Basketball, volleyball, baseball, tennis and hockey are representative of the type of game that has come into prominence because of this. The interest that has resulted has caused many to take part in athletics outside of class who might never have gotten into the game at all.
The Athletic Conference ·of American College Women has also helped in bringing about the advancement of athletics. It has fostered the organization of athletic as sociations in the various colleges and universities of the country with the aim of developing athletics as a means of promoting health, physical efficiency and good fellow ship. Each athletic association is governed to a certain extent by the national organization and in most cases is under close s upervision by the Physical Education department. The interest that has been shown by the increased membership in the associations and by the continual introduction of new sports can mean nothing else but that athletics for women are here to stay.
THE CAROLINA PLAYMAKERS
By Lucy F . LAY, North Carolina A
For six year. under the dire<:tion of Professor Frederick H . Koch, Professor of Dramatic Literature at the University of North Carolina, the Carolina Playmakers have been busy building up a "special chapter in dramati c hi s tory " which has attracted the attention of people all over the nation Their aim has been to catch in a permanent form t he numberless traditi o ns and legends and the various phases of life in North Carolina, by converting them into folk drama. North Carolina A of Pi Beta Phi has contributed materially to its s uccess and progress.
Of late years there have been seve ral movements to accomplish the task of interpreting the lif e of a loca lity, the work of the Irish Players b e ing th e most n otable In North Dakota about e ighteen years ago, through the efforts of Mr. Koch there was a remarkable development of dramatic interest which resulted in the formation of the Dakota Playmakers. This organization ca rried ou t over the state plays of its ow n production based u pon the personal knowledge of life and character of the people of the plains
The Dakota Playmakers' work attracted much notice in all parts of the country. Dr . Edwin Greenlaw, the head of the English department at the Universiry of North Carolina became d eeply interested in the idea of folk-play making, and by hi s efforts, Mr. Koch wa s induced to come to Chapel Hill to d eve lop the rich field which North Carolina affords for the making of native folk drama.
North Carolina is a state rich iII incid ent and color. It ex tends more than five hundred miles from the towering heights of Mo unt Mitch ell, th e highest mountain east of the Rockies, down to the s hifting shoals of the Atlantic coast. Back in the isolated mountain districts and down on the sandbanks of the coast there are little groups of people who are d esce ndents of English forbears who emigrated in the eighteenth century. There exist ballads..and folktale s which hav e been passed along by word of mouth from one generation to another. We have the glitter

of adventure in the tales of pirates, of the lost colony of Roanoke, of Daniel Boone and of Flora McDonald. There are those who can recount stories of plantation days and of the Reconstruction days after the war between the states. In bitter contrast to the life on the old plantations there is the present day life on the tenant farms and in the drab mill villages.
Under the directi on of Mr. . Koch the und ergrad uate students o f the univer sity began to use the wealth of folk material in oneact plays. First there was a course in Dramatic Compos iti on, which so far has produced nearly forty original folk-plays of literary value. Now the work has grown, so that two whole courses are offered, the one in Play-writing, and the other in Play-production, which is given by George V. Denny, Assistant Director and Manager of the Playmakers.
The whole community became inter ested in the id ea of folkplaymaking and formed a fellowship of those who in any way helped with the production of the plays . Later the o r ganization became incorporat ed . They strive earnestly to perform the multitude of steps which take a play from the hands of the author and present it to an audience, with the highest degree of efficiency and with the deepest appreciation of the art of the wo rk. All the s tage settings, th e costumes, the lighting effects and the ot her multitudinous details of a production a r e worked out by the students.
It i s now the custom of the Playmakers to make three t ours during each college year. So far these have been confined to the state , but during the present year, so many invitations from other s tates have been received that a trip out of North Carolina is being seriously contemplated. Already they have played before sixty thousand people. During these trips th e Playmakers come into very close contact with the people. The wh o le state watch es their work, applauds, criticizes and often makes s ugges tions. It is frequently the case that the players r e turn from a trip with a generous supply of material, coming directly from the life of the people.
It is extremely unu sual for an amateur to write a successful ' play abo u t l ife with which he i s not familiar. Mr. Koch has so deeply impres sed the fa ct lIpon the student s that o ut s id e rs ha ve

recognized it, t oo. In one of the college hit s an au th o r is made to proclaim :-
"Now all th e people In my play 1 take direct trom life
My roommate is the villaIn -bold who vamps the h ero's wIfe. And all the snappy c uss words he uses e very day I jot 'em In m y noteb ook and I put 'em In my play."
The range of the plays which hav e bee n successf ully produced i s wide. They are <;onfined to material directly connected with North Carolina but they embrace varied mood s and types of characters. There are plays based on tales of the Lost Co lony and other hi storical incidents, witc h tal es, tragedies from the mill towns and from the tenant farm , and plays dealing with the race problem. There are comedies of farmlife, romances of bygone days, comedies of rn oon s hiners and "revenoo'ers" and skits on modern life .
"When Witches Ride," which was th e fir st play on the initial programme is based on folk- s uperstition in Northhampton County. The Witch, Phoebe, was s ap posed to have the power to slip through keyholes and to s lip out of he r skin to go on her night rambles. The country folk w ere terrorized by her approach and resorted to aU sorts of tricks to kee p her away. In the shee r bit of poetry which forms the prologue , Elizabeth Lay, the author, ha s beautifully expressed the faith of the Playmakers.
"We mo c k with tacts the Southern tolk-bellet And so torget the eternal quest that stro\'e With signs and tales to symbolize the awe Ot power In H eaven and earth stili undefined . Yet we ma y catch the cblldllke wondering Ot our old negroes and the conn try tolk, And llve again in simple times ot faith And fear and wonder, it we Btage their life. Then witches rIde the stormy, thundering sky, And signs and omens fill believing minds; Then old traditions live in simple speech And ours the heritage ot wondering."
One of the most chann ing of the period plays was written by Jane Toy, a North Carolina A. "Agatha" is a romantic and vivacious play redolent with the atmosphere of crinolines and sweeping curtesies. The author followed one of the Playmaker cu stoms in taking one of the roles. In her second play "Reward

Toy,
Offered," Catherine Boyd (Brown) played the leading part. Besides acting in many parts Mary Yellott (Denny) wrote "Waffles for Breakfast," a little domestic comedy. "In Dixon's Kitchen," a comedy of farm Ii fe, was written by Wil bur W. Stout, in co llaboration with Ellen Lay. Adeline Denham, Dorothy Greenlaw and Katharine Batts have long been active in the work. Katherine Batts is generally considered one of the best actors the Playmakers have found. She has created many leading parts; among the mo st impo rtant being the roles of tenant farm women. She has played. leading parts in "The Miser," "Trista," and "The Lord's Will."
During the season just passed, Margaret Jones had a part in each of the three trips, creating the role of Mrs. Mayfield in "Gaius and Gaius, Jr.," a delightful comedy of ante-bellum days. Daisy Cooper and Lucy Lay had the good fortune of taking one tour with the troupe. The most definite and valuab le contribution to the work from the Pi Beta Plu Chapter was the play "Fixin's" by Erma Green, written in co llab orat ion with her brother, Paul Green. By many, this play of tenant farm life has been adjudged one of the best.
Some of the plays have been printed in s uch magazines as: The Theater Arts M aga.ine, The Drama and Poet Lore, and in September, 1922, Henry Holt released th e first volume of five Carolina folk-plays. Perhaps the greatest compliment came from Augustus Thomas, wh o is generally considered the leading American interested in the theater. In the New York Review, Mr. Thomas states that "the whole future of o ur drama depends largely upon the result of such spontan eous movements as . .. . the Playmakers." Of the plays themselves he wrote, "I have read them and consider them fully equal to any of the Irish folklore plays produced by the Abbey company under Lady Gregory's direction." The book enjoyed a wide sale. The second vol um e is scheduled to make its appearance soon It will conta in "Fixin's."
The efforts of the Playmakers have resulted in a fine and much needed contribution not only to the literature and cu lt ure of North Carolina but of the nation. The productions of the Carolina Playmakers while being purely North Carolina products have won national fame and are of nationa l importance because of

the fact that the "true interpretation of human nature in one locality is universal." So the Playrnakers are interesting North Carolinians in themselves and in their state. They are developing the state's consciousness of hersell so that others are noticing the work.
Then too, they are furnishing clean amusement. On tours the Playmakers have acted in towns where no worthy drama had been seen for months or years. To quote Walter Pritchard Eaton they bring, "Not cheap bedroom farce, but vital interesting plays that come close home to the enthusiastic audiences that greet them. In short they are doing what the commercialized stage cannot do. They are presenting plays which come straight from the heart of man through an instinctive yearning toward beauty and poetry."
The Playmakers hope soon to be in their new theater, which is a1m.ost completed. It will "serve as an experimental theater for the development of plays truly representative of the traditions and present-day life of the people." The theater was made possible by the gift of a beautiful building of Greek structure and a fund of money with which to remodel it.
The most important aspect of the from the start has been the number of individuals who have worked unsparingly and long for the good of the organization. Even to mention the names would take more space than is available. The highest praise should be given to Frederick H. Koch who has been the moving spirit in the work. Every community has the material and the possibility of folk playmaking. A moulder is the chief necessity and North Carolina is extremely fortunate in having a man who has as much faith in his belief in people and in his idea as Frederick H. Koch. The business manager, George V. Denny, deserves a large share of praise for the work he has done in almost every field of the work. He has been with the organization almost from the start, and has managed all of the state tours.
Under the leadership of such workers as these, the Playmakers are endeavoring to contribute something of a lasting value in the making of an American folk theater. They are translating the history and life of the state into folk drama and they are continually exerting their efforts toward interesting other communities in doing the same thing. When every state takes up the work we shall have the richly varied expression of American

life. Then, says the American Review of Heviews, "We shall be aware of the actual pulse of the people by the expression in folk-plays of their co-ordinated minds. It is this common vision, this collective striving that determines nationalism and remains throughout the ages, the one and only touchstone of the future."
THE RUSHING SYSTEM
'rhe question of rushing is today an outstanding one in the Greek letter world . Alumn., and actives must think things out clearly and carefully and make provision for the future if they expect to protect the fraternity system from criticism . This is a responsi bility which we cannot shirk.
Many fraternity women today are giving much attention to the rushing problem: some are dissatisfied with things as they are and are groping for a satisfactory solution; others have thought the thing out and have profited by experience SO that the question is being well handled on several campuses.
Rushing tends to defeat the purposes of fraternities more than any other single influence and should be eliminated entirely from the fraternity system.
Fraternity in the larger sense of the word means a brotherhood, a deep friendship, something which is a force towards character building and which shall be lasting. To ask someone to join your fraternity should mean that you desire to welcome her into your circle to share your joys and sorrows and to help you so lve your problems.
How can you expect a freshman to know whether she is going to like your group if she knows nothing about you? What is there in the rushing rule which says: "Fraternity cannot 110 mentioned before freshmen," or "No fraternity girl may mention anything concerning any fraternity to a freshman." And yet you expect that freshman to join you! The Y. W. c. A. silence week is a different matter as the object of it is to have the girls get acquainted without a discussion of fraternities but the idea of permitting no mention of fraternity during the entire
THE ARROW Oli' PI BETA PHI
rushing season does not seem consistent. Why belong to something that you cannot discuss or mention to a prospective member?
How much more sensible is this rule which says: "We can talk fraternity by simply telling the good points of our own." But why should it even be necessary to have such a rule at all? It is beneath the dignity of a fraternity woman to speak disparagingly of any other fraternity. Such action is against all fraternity ethics. To criticize a rival organizat ion when talking to a rushee is the heighth of poor sportsmanship If YOll cannot win a girl on the merits of your own organization or chapter you had better get bu sy and build up such a chapter that you can win members on its merits. Nothing is ever gained by criticizing a rival-much may be lost in that way.
The fact that many of the college Panhellenics are making changes in their rushing systems and are groping about for a substitute shows that many Greeks are beginning to realize the folly of concentrated rushing.
Through a questionnaire sent to lhe sixty-eight chapters of Pi Beta Phi it is shown that thirty -seven of the chapters are not satisfied with their present rushing systelTIs; seven are not entirely sat i sfied; twenty are satisfied; and four failed to r eport.
A careful study of the questionnaire brings out many interesting facts. It is found that in the sixty-eight institutions where there are Pi Beta Phi chapters, the rushing seasons vary in length from one day to one year. Some chapters report that one week is satisfactory; others desire a much longer period. Hence, no conclusion can be drawn from merely comparing the length of the various seasons. The statistics would show, however, that the majority of the chapters having a shorter rush period were more satisfied with their present systems than those having a long time. That would tend to show that the chapters do not lik e the rushing system and are glad to have it over in a short time so that they can settle down to normal college life.
A number of the groups suggested as a remedy for their present systems that rushing be held in the week previous to registration so that it would not interfere with college work. Some of the Panhellenics have already adopted this plan.
Such a plan, however, has its disadvantages as it does not give the girl a chance who comes to college without acquaintances .
RUSIIJNQ
She may be a perfectly splendid girl whose home is in a locality where there are no young women fr om the institution to which she i s going. Doe s she have a chance to get acquainted and to be invited to join a fraternity if ru sh week is held pr ev ious to registration and is managed through a sys tem of date books?
The chapter, under the pre-reg istration arrangement, does not have an opportunity to meet all of the young women co ming to the college. The ru shing list necessarily is made up of those recommended to the chapter by its own members or by friends.
\Vith rushing preceding registration there is also the problem of hou s ing . Consider thi s repo rt from one chapter: "All new girls being- rushed s tay at one community h o u se . 'rhose who are bid go to the chapter hou ses; the others go into th e dormitory." The dormitory in that in stitution is not sufficient to care for all of the girls and th e chapter houses fllrnish great relief to the situation. But previous to pledging it i s necessary to house all of the rushees for thi s one week in the community hou se. "The girls were so crowded that many would not stay even until college opened," says the report. A new woman's do rmitory is soon to be built at that instituti on which will r emedy this cond iti on.
If the system of rushing--<:oncentrated rushing--<lid not exist there would not be that necessity for s u ch wholesale housing. What 'must be the reaction of a fre shman away from home and friends for the first time?
In another institution where rushing is h e ld previous to regi stration it is necessary Jar rushees to stay at a hotel or some other temporary abode on account of a ruling ' which compe ls them to keep a room for one semester if they rent one from houseowners in that co ll ege town. Therefore the girls who expect to join a fraternity live at the hotel until they are pledged and can move into the fraternity house.
Rushing gives the freshman the wrong perspective in many instances. Do you wonder that the head of a little, young freshman is entirely turned when s he is ru shed by every organization or by the four or five biggest ones on a campus; is invited to three and four parties a day for · a week or even two weeks; is sho wered with delicate corsage bouquets; escorted about in taxi- ' cabs; dined and feasted and entertained? Think what her feelings must be, too, when th e days of rllsh and excitement are over;
THE Auow 01' PI BETA PHI
when everyone is tired out and she is a mere pledge I She cannot have the true idea of what a fraternity stands for by merely judging the various groups according to the cost of party favors, house decorations, methods of entertainment or the elaborate serving of food
The rushing system has also reached the stage in many colleges where recommendations from friends and relatives pour in to a chapter so that in order to be courteous the chapter must entertain 100 to 125 guests when it can only pledge about twelve girls out of that number. Think how much more sensible it would be to eliminate all of that entertaining and nervous strain so that the 12 or more girls who are going to become pledges could become friends of the fraternity w'omen and could naturally drift into the group where they will be most at home. If such were the case they could be entertained at dinner, teas, etc ., just as they would be in the home of a friend.
Many of the college Panhellenics now have too many minor rules. In fact, they have so many rules that it is impossible not to break some of them. For instance, why have a rule at all which says: "At the fifth offense the group shall be reported to the National Officers." Such a rule almost invites the first four offenses I
How can a freshman girl become acquainted with the girls whom she hopes to have for lifetime friends when she is held back by rules such as these: "No conversations with freshmen shall be longer than three minutes ." "No upperclass girl shall enter the room of a freshman." "For the first three weeks no communication can be held with freshmen except that of business." "Upperclassmen and freshmen can visit only thirty minutes at one time."
There is also the chapter's side of the question when considering the rushing entertainments. Think of the work and often expense attached to "7 parties the first week, 5 the second, and 2 the third." Also think of the time it takes to entertain when "4 invitations may be issued to each rushee and only 4 rushees at one time '" The result is a number of parties at which only 4 freshmen are entertained and yet the whole chapter must be present to meet the girls and to entertain them!
Some college Panhellenics limit the ru shing expense while others have no limit at all. Some limit the cost of "music to $85," "entire cost to $150," "cost of entertaining one girl to $5," "entire cost to $35," etc. One Pan hellenic allows no money to be spent. Another limits the cost at a tea to "2Oe per person." How much time it must require to keep track of every cent used in giving these functions.
Another local rule forbids a fraternity member to "visit freshman's home." And yet we stress family and cultural background in considering prospective members.
With so many, many rules naturally there comes the question of penalties and the ever present tendency to "spy" upon the rivals. Such outgrowths of the rushing system are not in keeping with fraternity ideals and should be discarded. What, you may ask, will help to remedy the things which the various college Panhellenics themselves are struggling to correct ? As one chapter advises: "There must be a more natural atmosphere." We must do everything possible to help the new girl to dri ft naturally into the group of girls with whom she is most congenial.
It is almost a marvel that with the confusion and haste of rushing there are not more "misfits" than there are, A girl may be a splendid 'member for one group and yet an entire "misfit" in another. The system of rushing gives very little chance for judging except by the clothes, manners and general appearance. There is not time to look into the soul and mind of the rushee or to discover whether she has the capacity to make good.
It is not uncommon to find a "butterfly" who flits to a campus just for rushing and to get a pledge pin, later failing and leaving college.
A freshman should have at least the entire first semester in which to become adjusted to her new surroundings and in order to "find" herself. She should be given the opportunity to prove whether she can make good grades in her studies.
Second year pledging or even second semester pledging with absolutely no form of rushing may be the ultimate solution to the rushing problem.
All fraternities will of course have to agree upon a system and strive to make it a success. Naturally it will be hard ' for

SELLING PERSONALITY
Mary Korn Cameron, Illinois B, has one of the most interesting positions now being held by a woman in the Chicago Tribune offices. But in order to appreciate her position, y.ou really should
MARY KORN CAMERON UHnols B know Mary. She radiates personality-and that is her war k - selling personality over the telephone. She believed that one's voice betrayed, or portrayed, one's character over the telephone and that a personality was as necessary to successful selling over ihc telephone as it was with face-to - face conversation.
One day upon visiting the ad . taking department of a large newspaper she was disturbed by the confusion and noise of the many voices talking at the same time and the idea came to her that she could train these you n g women so that there would be little confusion although many of them were working at one time.
Accordingly she sold her personality and her idea to the management of The Chicago Tribune and now she has a training class for telephone ad takers and solicitors. In this division there are about fifty girls. These girls are from Illinois, Wisconsin, Northwestern, Michigan, Minnesota, Knox, Lombard. Iowa and many other schools and colleges. There are a number of Kappas, Thetas, Gamma Phis, Delta Gammas, Alpha Phis, as well as many Pi Phis. At present we boast of five Pi Phis.
It is Mary's job to teach these girls to use their voices to the best advantage in selling advertising over the phone. She also trains the new girls in the department in their business duties and in voice culture, and she interviews new applicants to determine the possibilities of thei r vocal qualities and personalities.
PI PUle ll'f TH.J: PuBLIO EYE
One of the interesting things to me was how Mary got started. She tells me that at a Founders' Day banquet several years ago, Dema Harshbarger, Illinois d, who was booking Chautauqua programs, told of her work and-Mary at once became interested and traveled with a Chautauqua circuit as a member of the Mercedes Concert Co., for two years. Hence when Mary came to the Tribune to convince them that she was the one to teach voice culture and personality to college girls, Mary had a so lid footing with actual experience.

A MAYOR'S WIFE
A recent issue of the Kansas City Star Magazine carried an article called, "Things a Mayor's Wife Is Called Upon To Do." The article was illustrated by a large photograph of Mr. and Mrs. Beach with their son and daughter, Marshall and Eleanor.
Mrs. Beach was Marjorie Marshall of Lawrence, Kansas, and is a member of Kansas A of Pi Beta Phi. To quote the Star: "The romance between Mayor Beach and Mrs. Beach commenced in their childhood and grew with the years . . The two attended the University of Kansas together and their romance began in earnest at that time. Marjorie Marshall was a member of Pi Beta Phi and 'Bert' Beach belonged to Beta Theta Pi and the two always attended together the dozens of parties that featur e fraternity life at a state university.
"One night a week Mayor Beach stays downtown to council meetings; but the rest of the evenings find the Beach family at home when work is to be done and enjoying the recreations that any other family does the remainder of the time. 1\1arshaJl and Eleanor usually have their lessons confronting them. If Mayor Beach or Mrs. Beac h has a speech to face in the near future, they talk over the subject with each other and try to plot out the address together. The Beaches appear to be a great 'team working' family. Neither hu sband nor wif e ever say 'I did this' in reference to a subj ect that concerns the home or fanlily life. It is always 'we did this.'
TU!: ARROW 0.1 PI BETA PUI
"Mrs. Beach says she and the mayor get a great deal of enjoyment Ollt of 'The Grub Wonns: a closed organization of four married coupl es to which the Beaches have belonged for some years . The object of 'The Grub Worms' is to see the best plays for the l east money, so the members have a line party one night of each week at the leading downtown theater in its legitimate season.
H 'We don't sit in the orchestra circle,' U she explains. "We decided when we fonned our club that we would rather see every play from the heights than a few plays from the plains. So we sit in the second balcony and have the best time."
Although the demands upon Mrs. Beach's time are many and varied, she finds time to teach a Sunday schoo l class, to drive in to the country with her family for an outing each week, and to attend to all of the detai ls of running her home and keeping up her social obligation s.
A PROFESSIONAL DANCER
Jeanette Collett, Texas A, who gradua t ed from the Un ivers ity of Texas in 1919 and was awarded a Phi Beta Kappa key for high scho larship, is now devoting her tim e and talent to dancing and is espeCia ll y interested in inte rpretiv e ballet work. For a year, s he studi ed under th e Dennis-Shawn instructors in California. While th ere, she was selected from among the entire schoo l as one of the dancers for a motion picture ho use performance which ran for two weeks in Los Angeles.
This wa s her first expe ri ence on the stage. For the last year and a half she has bee n studying and dancing in New York, under the instruction of Fokine.
Last spring she was invited to dance with Pavlowa and her troupe for some of their performances in New York. This fall Fokine selected her as one of the dancers in the extravaganza, Hassan. Later she was se lected out of a group to dance with Madame Fokine at a Charity Ball given by the "Four Hundred" of New York.
Miss Collett has had many flattering offers from musical shows and comedies, but has refused all of them, Iter preference
being concert work. A heallh magazine recently ran several pictures of her in various health poses.
Jeannette has always wanted to and expects to teach later on. But at present she is still In New York studying under Fokine's direction.

THE ABRow OJ' PI BETA PH]
EDITORIALS
THROUGH THE Aglai of Phi Mu we learn that: "Sigma Nu offers a new solution for the problem of paying mortgages on its fraternity houses. Its chapter at Oklahoma has ju s t adopted this plan to cover its first mortgage of $30,000.
"The first mortgage loan is obtained for a term of I S y ears with no payments coming due on the pr incipal prior to the end of 15 years . Interest at 6 per cent is paid annually. At the time the loan is made endowment insurance policies maturing in 15 years are taken out on the lives of various Alumni Sigs, the amount of the insurance being the same as the amount !,f the loan . In some p laces it might be possible t<o get members of the fraternity who are insured to pay the premiums themselves as a donation to the fraternity. They have tried to do thi s however, but expect the building corporation to pa?, all premiums."
THREE HUNDRED ARROWS of the December is sue were returned to the publishers because the owners had moved without leaving a forwarding address! All changes of address should be sent at once to the Circulation Manager, Mrs C. E. Temple, 23 IN . Mary St., Lancaster, Penn. If you did not receive yo u r December ARROW p lease notify Mrs. Templ e and she will attend to having a copy sent to yo u. Every Pi Beta Phi initiated since 1908 is a life subscriber with paidup subscription .
PI BETA PHI is grieved to learn of the death of Cora Allen McElroy, Alpha Phi, who pa ssed away in October.
Mrs. McElroy was the first editor of the Alpha Phi Quarterly, for twelve years national Panhellenic delegate from Alpha Phi, and president of the Nat ional Panhell enic Congress in 1912. She was also president of Alpha Phi, 1912-14, and as chairman of Alpha Phi's Endowment Fund completed the $SO,OOO drive for the fraternity's fiftieth anniversary in 1922.
Mrs. McElroy was an outstanding figure in the Panhellenic world as well as in her own fraternity and her interest and sympa$y for the objects and aims of Greek letter organizations could not be estimated. Her pass ing is a distinct loss to all fraternity women.
EXTENSION will be the subject of an article in the June ARROW. It was hoped to have it in the present issue but some of tbe statistics were not yet available. The Editor has collected data from the National Panhellenic Congress fraternities and plans to present the latest available material upon the subject of Extension and What the other Nationals are doing along that line.
CONVENTION in Canada sounds most alluring from the standpoint of recreation, scenery and general enjoyment. It also beckons us to a place where we can sing and work and play together in ideal surroundings. It should summon alumn., and actives alike in order that they may discuss the plans and problems of Pi Beta Phi.
According to the Alpha Gamma Delta Quarterly: "Convention is the place for the freshman to grow enthusiastic, the sophomore to receive inspiration, the junior to gain fraternity knowledge, the senior to acquire a world vision, teachers to meet old friends, home-makers to have a happy weelc and all alumn., to share their wisdom. o ,
DO YOU READ THI! ARROW? Did you ever stop to consider why Pi Beta Phi publishes a magazine? It is not for the purpose of giving the Arrow Editor something to do but is to keep the members of the fraternity informed concerning the progress and development of the fraternity. The magazine is the only link which connects the scattered alumn., with the things that are occurring in active and alumn., life. Wou ld you believe that we had a member of Pi Beta. Phi who had not heard of the Settlement School? And yet, a very well educated .member of the fraternity carne to the Estes Park Convention desiring to make a suggestion that we assist a school in North Carolina. She had been in a foreign land for a number of years, had not seen a copy of our fraternity magazine, and did not know about Little Pigeon. Do you who do receive TH>: ARRow read New rulings, new policies, new steps of progress are printed and explained for the benefit of all Pi Beta Phis and if you would keep abreast of the times, read your magazine.

EDITOR'S EASY CHAIR
WOMEN AND LEISURE
IVo'm el! and Leisure by Lorine Pruette has ju s t come from the press of E P Dutton & Co , New York. Lorine Pruette Frye, Tenn essee A , is the wife of Pr o fesso r Frye, who is tea ching in the University of New York.
It is interes ting to note that thi s book written by a member o f Pi Beta Phi is dedica ted to Eula Miller and t o Do r othy Canfield , the latter being a member o f Kappa Kappa Gamma . Women and L eisure is a s tudy o f soc ial wa ste and deal s with the im po rtant and always fa sc inating s ubj ect of woman 's place in the soc ial order. "In thi s prob lem o f soc ial wa s tage," says Barnes in writing the introdu c ti on, "the situation o f th e mod e rn woman is mos t interes ting and significant. She has, if anything, been m o re thorou ghly di s lodged and more roughl y shak e n up by the eco nomic, soc ial and cultural changes of the la s t century than man. . Dr. Pruette in Women and Leisure has rendered a di s tin ct service t o economic and social sc ience by her penetrating and stimulating a naly s is of the relati o n of woman and h e r environ in g institutions to socia l waste. It is the first
clear sketch of Ihe problem in its socio logi cal and cultural selting , sho uld d o much to clarify our thinking in regard t o the matter and to s ugges t effective mean s of remedying the s ituati o n it reveaJs."
In cons id ering the tendency 10 aClivity, the author says: "T he o ld problem of sur v iving and of ge tting o n in the world ha s again set the pace. Father's salary or hu sband 's seems never quite enough to go around, and th e women are looking out for oppo rtuniti es for remunerative activity. Econom ic press ure, the crav ing 10 fill th e empty hours and so m et im es the empt y mind s, and latterly th e li berat in g influence of the World War, ha s been a t w o rk developing new c urrents, new s tand ards and new possibilities for w omen."
And again: HOne o f th e functi on s o f th e 'lei sure class' is u sually co ns idered t o be tending the lamp of culture, and this E. A. Ross declares Ame ri ca n w omen to be doing and as the example of Ihi s he reminds u s that anyone who does anything new, from fr ee verse to re lativity, is invited to lecture before the wo m e n's clubs.. . It has been claimed that women read most of the ficti on and t o this Mr . Hergesheimer, d es pite hi s own popularily, rather violently attributes the sad state of literature."
E acn chapter of Ihe book could be taken up and studied as a sepa rate unit as the following headings cover inte resting indiv idual fields of wo man 's endeavor: \V o m e n in the Division of Socia l Labor: Occ upational Trend s in the Employment of Women; Wom e n who Work for Nothing; Shall the Married Woman ''''ork-What Three Hundred Men Think About It; The Choice: Care e r versus Home; Da y Dreams of the Adolesce nt Girl; Freedom to Adventure.
Th e conclusions which the author draw s are those arrived at after the careful study o f human psychology and after using a sy s tem of questionnaires through means of which she obtained uniquely fresh and original material.
Many sentences in the book furnish plenty of food for thought upon the part of the reader. For instance, one stops to ponder upon this statement and similar ones: "Society is handicapped now b y it s handicapped and non-productive women. If we can but lighte n a littl e the gro up pressure, can but incline
THz Auow 0.. PI BrrA PHI
public opinion toward toleration, great adventurers may yet come from women."
Read the book and you may be one of the adventurers .
MY ARROW
By ELIzABeTH BoYD, Oklahoma B
From a golden bow so long ago, Was shot the tiniest little dart; Perhaps you ':Y0n't believe it's so , But it couched right in my heart. And if you closely look right there, You'll see the symbol that I wear. I love our golden arrow true I Jove our colors wine and blue, The golden chain, the s ilken tie, That bind us in Pi Beta Phi.

PASADENA. ALU MNAE CLUB PASADENA, CALrl'.
Pi Phis residin g In Pasadena have lo ng claimed m e mb erehlp In the Loa: Angeles AlulnDae C lub. But for the most part memberahlp baa consisted chief ly in the perfunctory pay m ent of d ue8, and only a deeultory attendance at the meeting8, due large l y to the distance ot the m eeting pl ace from Pasadena. So, in May. 192 3, Mrs. W . M. Derthi c k (Cora Colbert), Wis A, chairman of the Puadena. group, hopIng to eUmulate a. more vital Interest In 11 B ell, called a m ee ting o f all PI Phis living In Pa.aa.dena and South Pasadena at the h ome of Minta Morgan , Mi c h.

Whil e only eight attended the m eettng th e enthusiasm W8.8 so g reat that it was d ecided to con tinue the In Pa.aa.dena., once a month during th e year 1923-2., as a brancb of the Los Angeles Alumnae Club. Accordingly a. da.te was selected whic h would not conflict with the Loa Angeles meetlngtS, 80 that any PatSadenan desjrlng to do so cou ld attend both m eeti ngs
During the tall of 192 3, under th e able chairmanship o f Dorothy Ware, Wis. the group d evoted its enUre tim e to sewing (or th e bazaar given annually by C alif. r tor the chapter-house fund and the S ettl eme nt School. .January, 1924, (ound that work finished , eo s traightw ay mat e rl a ltS were purchased by the group and eewlng started tor the 192. bazaar, which 'Work has co n tlnued up to the preeent time . By May, 192., the group had grown from th e first attendance o t e ig ht PI Phis to an average of twe nty-lwo, with one meeting of thirtyfive. The year ot work and play had bee n so pleasant and profitable and the fri e ndships thus tlO d ear, that It was deemed time t o furth e r cem e nt thotle r e iationshiptl by fo rming the Paeadena. Alumnae C lub With the sanc tion of Mrs Perce H. C urti s (Blanche C hAriton, Mass A .), Vice President of Kappa Province , w e formally applied t o r a n alumnae club charter.
In June the granting of th e charter and th e torm a l In s tallation of officers took pla ce at a. rnotlt enthuslsstlc m ee ting, at the h o me of Mrs Norm a n F.

There Is so little to MY of the founding of our club that I teel that almost anything is superfluous. We had felt the need of an organization for some time, particularly for rushing purposes. This fall I called the girls together. There a r e Just ten of us representing five different chapters. One member of our BtUe club was an t . C. from a disbanded chapter at Hastings, Nebr. Our main interest is the problem of a house t or Ok l ahoma A. but we hope to do somethi ng for the Settlement School. too. Toward that end we are selling the Mund e r Reproductions of Etchings and taking subscriptions fOr maga· zlnes.

IIN MEMORIAM
LoCKLIN, (MRS. L(WIS C.), Retta Kempton, died at her ho me in Appleto n, Wis., D ec. 24, 1924 after a prolonged illness. She wa s initiated into Michigan A, Jan . 26, 1888, thus being among the earliest members of her chapter. \Vhile attending Hillsdale College, Retta studied dramatic art, and after graduating from Mrs. Noble's School of Expres sio n in Detro it made a notable success as a reader. Her m os t pleasing persona lity and lovab le disposition endeared her to all friend s and Pi Phi sisters. Besides h er hu sband she is su rviv ed by three sons all of whom are attending college.
NILES, MILDRED C., pa ssed away Chri s tmas morning, 1924, afte r a long illn ess ca u sed by a fall. She was a member of the class of 192 1 of New York A at Syracuse Un ive r sity. While M il dred was in college she was a part of the st ud ent governing body, Y. W. C. A., athletic a ssociatio n, Women's Congress, and was rated high scho lastically. Both a s a college student and as a Pi Phi s he was highly thought o f and loved. Hundreds of gifts and cards which came to he r before and after her death, from teachers with wh om she worked, pupils she had taught, older people to whom she always showed unusual courtesy, and her many young friends , prove that she will be greatly missed. She is surv ived by one brother and by an uncl e and a n aunt with whom she was staying at th e time of her death.

A UNIQUE MEETING
A uniqu e Pbl Beta Kappa meeting wa s held In a cabin of the AQultania o t the Cunard Line on September 11 , 1924 , the day before she concluded a w estwa rd "yoyage. The Senate bad very considerately extended the vacation of S'.ecretary Voorhees of the United Chapters, and with Mrs. Voorhees he was retuming afte r a very pleaSRot trip ot eleven weeks through Western EuroJ)@. visiting some leading cUlee in France, Italy. Switzerland, Belgium, Holl-and, England and Scotland. Learning that: there were a few members of Ph! B eta Kappa 00 th e AQuttania, he secured permission to post a notice inviting them to 8. meeting. Fifteen responded (one did not see the notice In tIme) and a very pleasant meeting wa"s he1d. Doctor Voorhees explained the plans that have been adopted to ce1ebrate th e 150th annive rsary and invited the co-openltion ot aU present in carrying these plans to a successful co ncluslon.-P hi Bet a Kappa New" Qfld Note" .
According to the Shield and Diamond of Pi Kappa Alpha: The way to build and maintain a national fra te rnity is to h&ve strong indIvidual chapters. And the way to have '9troog chapters Is to have every cbft-pter Its own landlord.
The l as t issue of the Delta Kappa Epsilon Quar t erly carried a very interesting picture of "The First Fraternity Chapter House in America, located at Kenyon College, Gambier, Ohio. The Log Cabin was occupied by Lambda Chapter of Delta Kippa Epsilon." Beside the cabin i s a rail fen ce such as may be see n in the mountain districts of the South today.
PATRIOTISM
