Emma Harper Turner

Grand Council wi shes to express for themselves and for the Fraternity at large a very deep and si ncere SOrrow for the death of Emma Harper Turner, Indiana A and District of Columbia A. he had been ill since she received serious injuries in an accident in the Fall , and Grand Council had kept in close touch with her condition through Lo;" Finger, the Coun cil member living nearest to Miss Turner 's recent home in Los Angeles , and had stood by, ready to render any aid tha t might have been necessary. Unfortunately, when she died on January 31 , Grand Council was not informed of her death until Mrs . Finger rtturned home from a round of chapter visits, several days later, so that no member of Council could attend the funeral as a last tribute, but th e Fr ate rnity was well represented by a number of members who heard of her death .

Elsewbere in thIS issue, Blanche Charlton Curtis, Massachwetts A, who was much with Mi ss Turner in her last illness, has written of her life and work The Editor wishes to add a personal word of deep gratitude For many years, Miss Turner 's ioterest in every member of District of Columbia Arpha was very real and many Pi Phis, like the Editor, learned from her what a fraternity might mean in life, and were always better Pi Phis and perhaps, too, better women , because of her e:xample of devotion to the ideals of Pi Beta Phi Throughout her life, many of her dearest friends were Pi Phis , and after the death of her sisters, her last years were made happy by the companionship and loyalty of Martha Noble Carter, also a charter member of Indiana Arpha . During her last illness, Mrs. Carter and her doctor son were devotion itself, a "al personification of what our friendships in Pi Phi may mean to us.

Pi Beta Phi owes to Emma Harper Turner many of its most constructive ideas , and her influence will long be felt and always remembered, not only in the chapters she loved best, but among the alumn", whom she worked to draw together in closer ties by organization and through the common interest of the Settlement School.

Nancy Black Wallace Scholarship

Mr. and Mrs Paul Wallace, of Salem Oregon, have recently created at WiUamette University in Salem a scholarship in the College of Music, to be known as the Nancy Black Wallace Scholarship, in honor of Mr Wallace's mother, a Founder of Pi Beta Phi The scholarship is to be granted to an outstanding young undergraduate student who gives promise in music, and it will pay all tuition and fees, including applied music, for a period of four years .

The Willarnette College of Music is one of five on the Pacific coast completely accredited by the National Association of &bools of Music, with a faculty made up of talented artist-teachers.

Mr. Wallace has for years been an active and devoted member of the Board of Trustees of the University, and a loyd friend of Pi Beta Phi. Grand Council wishes to express for the Fraternity its pleasure at this truly beautiful memorial to one of its Founders . +++

T o ld with Pride

How wrong we were in our feeling that the war might prove harmful to the women's fraternitie s! At National Panhellenic there was much talk of the fine condition in which most of them lind themselves, after two yeu> of all-out war which is reaching down into all our lives and wringing our hearts for those who are gone and those who may yet appear in the lists of casualties. Pi Beta Phi is proud of its record-last year we initiated the greatest number of pledges in our historyso mething over 1600, and this represents also the largest proportion of those pledged.

But more than mere numbers , we point with pride to the fact that the National Committee on & holarship reports that last year the fraternity scholarship was the highest ir our h is tory-su rely

a reflection of fine spirit in our chapters , along with pride in schola s ti c achi evem e nt, and a more generaUy serious purpose.

And besides all this, the movement which we have noted an increase of interest in national fraternities, is showing itself in the large number of local groups whi ch are seeking to be chartered as chapters of national fraternities, backed by the interest of their college authorities. We have always said that fraternities fi1led an important place in the personal lives of their members-and never has this been more definitely prdven than now, when more than ever before have gicls a need for stability of devotion to ideals and principles , along with a need for the leadership training which Jife in a fraternity chapter brings

Look Before You Send

Please, ARROW correspondents and members everywhere who are being so helpful with the line material you send in, pieMe Jook in the ARRow before you mail that item or that story with a picture . The caJendar in the back of every issue of the ARROW tells where to send them: Personals, In Memoriams, changes of address , items about relatives in the Service, go to Central Office--if sent to the Editor, they must only be forwarded to untral Office, since they are handled there. Items of interest, with pictures, suitable for the Pi Phi Personalities section, or for the general feature section of the magazine, go to the Editor of the ARROW; chapter Jetters always to the Chapter Letter Editor; alumn", letters always to the Alumn., Club Editor. For every issue literally dOlens of contributions go to the wrong person. The result is extra work, a serious matter in these days of difficult help situations, and most important of all, needless delay in the production of the ARROW, in these days of unavoidably slow mails and also unavoidabJy slower produ ction at the publishers. Please help us, won't you? You will be heJping all of us who are responsible for the publi cation of the ARROW, in a year of many wartime difficulties and shortages .

Chapter Visits

The Editor of the ARRow has been out visiting chapters, besides going to National Panhellenic Congress to take part in the Editors' Conferen ce , a meeting always full of I'cofessional and personal interest. The story of the two meetings appears in full in reports in this Issue written by our own Delegate to National Panhellenic Congress, Amy Onken, and for the Editors' Conferen ce by Wilma Smith Leland, AJpha Omicron Pi. Both were practical , work.a-day sessions , with freest possibJe exchange of ideas and sharing of methods, well worth the time and effort they involved, even in war·time travel conditions In both, the subjects dis cussed had behind them the urgency of war conditions, and a sincere desire to carry on efficiently under any situations that may arise .

Five years ago the Editor celebrated Founders' Day with the Indiana Pi Phis at the great State Luncheon in Indianapolis, and ever since then she has hoped to return to enjoy more fully their generous hospitality, and to meet once again the Indi ana chapters. This fall came the opportunity to make official visits there. The result was all that might have been hoped for , since all live chapters were in excellent conditions and problems were few ( couJd it be becau se it was early in the college year? That remark involves a chalJenge to those chapters!) Meeting those groups of happy, interesting, charming girls brought a feeling of rest and release for one who Jives in a war zone! It was a special pleasure to lind the newest chapter in the state, no longer our baby chapter, thriving and taking its place with distinction on the DePauw campus-and heartening, too, was it to find the other chapters showing much interest in the new one . Everywhere that alumnre were met they were delightful- the Editor will long cherish the memory of the d inner meeting with the Indianapolis dub. It was a real inspiration to listen to the reports of the splendid war work they are doing , and to share the fun they were having in doing things together, aJong with her gratitude for their most cordial welcome.

Emma Harper Turner-1864 .. 1944

By BLANCHE CHARLTON CURTIS, }\f aJJ a ChIl Jt IIJ A

EMMA HARPER T U RNER , initiated January 16, 1888, as a charter member of Indiana Alpha, founder of District of Columbia Alpha, died of pneumonia on January 31, 1944, in Los Angeles, California On October 9, 1943, she feU when alighting from a bus and broke her hip and had been hospitalized ever since. She would have celebrated her eightieth birthday this year.

Miss Turner was graduated from Franklin College with B.S. degree in 1886. She was Grand Vice-President 1889 -1890 and Grand President from 1890 -1893. Among her many innovations were the development of our province system, the incorporation of the fraternity. and the custom of celebrating Founders' Day She was a delegate and secretary to the first national Panhellenic Convention and was made chairman of its first standing committee.

In 1893. as a result of her efforts, our national alwnme association was formed, the first such organization to be created by any woman's college fraternity. From 1893 to 1897 she was president of the new association and laid the foundation upon which our present successful alumna! department was built . Then, as if that were not enough , she kept careful watch of her " brain-child," as she loved to call it. In 1910 when she realized that it needed new vitality, she conceived the idea of uniting all the widely scattered dubs in a common interest, and our Settlement School was the result. She was chairman of the first Settlement School Committee and helped choose its site

Harp e r TuftIer

She had other interests too. She held a responsible government position in Washington, D .C., for forty years, but had time for membership in D.A R. and A A.V.W. and for active work with the Washington Alumn., Gub. For twenty-four years she taught a large Bible c1ass at the Washington Memorial Baptist Church. Her interest in Pi Beta Phi never flagged, and she was constantly thinking of new outlets for alumn., effort.

The Glendale Alumn., Club invited her as their honored guest on Founders Day last April. They had promised not to ask her to speak, for she was far from strong. But as she met the members before the meeting she so charmed them with her wit and vivacity that the chai rman begged her to respond to the formal introduction during the program. Without a moment's hesitation, she gave an enthusiastic and idealistic talk that thrilled every Pi Beta Phi in that gathering.

Even less than two weeks before her death, with her brilliant mind injured by the sbock resulting from her accident, and her frail body pitifully wasted she was enthusiastic and witty and stimulating .

Pi Beta Phi has lost a truly great alumna .

The Twenty..Eighth National Panhellenic Congress

THB TWENTY-EIGHTH National Panhell<nic Congttss, held at the Medinah Oub, Chicago, October 30 to November I, 1943, purposely limited in its {'rogram to business sessions and officers' discussIon groups found in these the inspiration which sent the fraternity officers who made up its personnel back to their work with the renewed strenRth and courage which come with a deepened consciousness of the vital importance of the service which ont is striving to give worthily. As they worked and talked together under the capable direction of Juelda C. Burnaugh, Bet.. Sigma Omicron , Chairmm , they realized with incre..sing fullness both th..t no group of young women is more importa.nt tod..y, than that made up of the "young women of superior ahility" who, in the face of great pressure from within their own hearts and from the outside to give im· mediate service to some civil or military cause, are quietly going abead to complete their college courses in order that they may be qualified to give the equally vital service and leadership which wilf be so needed during the years of peace and reconstruction ahead and that college fraternities have the privilege, unexcelled in their history, of giving these young women what no other agency can give so well-the support which means confidence, the incentive which sets a higher goal than might otherwise have seemed satisfying, the friendships which add happiness md a sense of security, and the ideals and standards without which no success can be truly great. The achievements of this National Panhell<nic Congress must be measured not alone in terms of its recommendations passed but also in those of the less immediately apparent results of its inspiration.

With a sense of personal loss in the death of a valued friend and admired fraternity representative. members of National Panhellenic Congress stood silently, at their oFing session, in tribute to the life and servICe of Mrs . Harold Helper, Grand President of Zeta Tau A1ph.. and its National Panhellenic Congress defegate for many years.

Of the greatest importance were the discuss ion groups held simultaneously for fraternity presidents, executive secretaries, and editors. A true spirit of cooperation was evident always in the frankness with which each officer discussed problems common to all fcaternities in the light of their application to her own fca24,

ternity and in the eagerness with which she made available to all, details of methods or plans which her own fraternity had found constructive.

Each group was a working one without prepared "speeches" but with prepared leaaers directing informal discussion along constructive lines. Both general problems such as those brought by the accelerated college schedules and by general war conditions and details of the functioning of individual chapters and officers o.nd of fraternities as such were given careful attention. There was evident a realization on the part of all officers that even though present conaitions may make deviations from estahlished procedure unavoidable temporuily, they do not necessarily talce from general effectiveness nor indicate any need for permanent changes in requirements but that they do mem that every fraternity must strive more earnestly thm ever before to live up to its own ideals of service to its active members and their campuses and to its a1U1Ilru!e and their communities. A call to active members to think more seriously and deeply than ever before of the pledges which they made at their initiation and to a1umrue to go back to their chapters for initiation ceremonies and so consciously to renew their dedication to the highest principles of beautiful living will , if heeded, mean a respiritualizing of fraternity women whose results for good could not be estimated.

As a definite outgrowth of the discussion gro up for Executive Secretaries, led by Louise Leonard, A r Ii, md abiding proof of its value, an Association of Executive Secretaries and Directors of Central Offices was formed with aara Pierce, K K r, as chairman for the interim of Congresses. The Editors of National Panhellenic Congress maga.zines, long orgmized as an Association meeting biennially at the time of National Panhellenic Congress, h d what is reported to h ave been their most helpful and valuable meeting, under the leadership of Ouistelle Ferguson, X n, and they will act during the coming interim under the chairmanship of Taylor Alford, Pi Beta Phi.

Among the recommendations passed by the Congress affecting its own organization or its associations with college administrators are the following:

'That the College PanheUenic Committee be recognized a5 having jurisdiction over the principle of interfraternity cooperation and that the present Committtt

on Interfraternitv Cooperation of the National Pan· hellenic Congress be abolished.

''That the special Committee on Agitation Aimed at the Right of Social Organizing be made a standing committee to be called the Research Committee. such committee to compile data on the values of social gro ups and to provide statistics and suggest procedures in preservation of our right to organize socially.

"That the title of N .P.C.-N .A.D.W. Joint Committee be changed to read 'the N.P .C. Representatives to the Joint N P.C.-N A D.W. Committee.'

"That a Committee be appointed to submit are· port to the 194' Congress, offering (1) the present Constitution with or without suggested (hanges. (2) By-laws based on present procedures . (3) procedures based on present procedures. (4) By·Laws and pro· cedures based on matters not covered above and which the committee believes should be added as they make their study of present data.

"That the executive sessions of National Pan· hellenic Congress devoted to the consideration of recommendations be dosed and that simultaneous sts· sions be planned for the visiting officers

"That National Panhellenic Congress send repre· sentatives to the next meelin,'t of the Interfraternity Council on the same basis as attendance at the previous one.

"That because the very nature of cases of anti · social activity demands constant and rapid work on the part of someone on the spot, special committees be appointed by the Executive Committee when the need arises in any given i0C2.lity."

As a result of its reports and discussions, National Panhellenic Congress passed the fol · lowing recommendations which have a direct bearing upon College Panhe ll enics and their relations with National Panhellenic Congress:

"That the College Panhellenic Work Shops be continued under the direction of the College Panhellenic Committee .

"That National Pan hellenic Congress reaffirm its disapproval of political combinations and block votin,l:t on the part of college chapters ."

An invaluable aid for College Panhellenics will be found in the suggested procedure for arbitration of College Panhellenic disputes, formulated by a special Committee, headed by L. Pearle Green, K A e, and adopted by Na· tional Panhellenic Congress as a guide for such arbit.ration. The full text of this outline will be given in the printed minutes of N.P.C. and should be carefully studied by all college Panhellenics, active chapter representatives, and alumna: advisers on Panhellcnic Relations . Among the many constructive recommenda · tions are those requiring that signed charges be submitted in writing within twenty·four hours after an alleged violation of rushing rules; that an accused chapter be given a written statement of charges, in advance of the PanheHenic meet· ing at which they are to be considered; that there be an open hearing of the charges and of the defense of the accused chapter ; and that, if possible , there be an immediate decision on

guilt and renalty by the College Panhellenic but that i this is impossible, these be made within forty.eight hours by a judiciary Commit· tee, permanent or temporary as the case may be.

The only evening program of N.P.C. was given under the direction of Mary Love Collins, X 0, Chairman of the Committee on Progress. Mrs. Collins completed the work assigned to hee committee in 1939, when she presented a discussion group which as a sequel to the dis· cussions of two years ago on the training and developing of leaders, thought together in· formally about the inner qualities and atti· tudes which make a counsellor of youth valuable and successful. Following the discussion, the Editors, at Mrs. Collins' request, amused and delighted the Congress with a burlesque on their "exclusion" from the regular sessions of the Congress and with a presentation of a col· lege Panhellenic meeting at which all the "Don'ts" of National Panhellenic Congress procedures and attitudes were cleverly made evident.

National Panhellenic Congress gave a true expression of its realization of responsibility for participation in humanitarian war projects and for service to aU causes which tend to bring nearer the end of the War, when it voted five hundred dollars from its treasury to the American Red Cross Blood Donor Service and adopted the resolution which read:

"Whereas our military leaders state that greatly increased enlistment of young women in the armed se rvices is imperative, and

"Whereas the member groups of N .P.C. have unique opportunities for contacts with young women especially valuable to the armed many of whom have completed their education through our encouragement;

" It is recommended that N .P.C. commit itself to active support of the appeal of our military leaders and implement such commitment with a program to urge girls graduating from college to consider seriously enlistment in the armed services .

"And that the Committee on War and College Women be requested to implement this resolution into its program of work ."

The Congress found special pleasure in the gracious hospitality of X n and :!; K who, on Saturday and Sunday evenings rc:spcctivc:ly, were hostesses to all fraternity officers at delightful informal receptions held in the Medinah ball· room, of n B <I> which presented ead, delegate with a scarf from its Settlement School, of B 0 which delighted the Congress with a bouquet of beautiful faU Bowers, and of <I> n n which honored the inCOming members of the Executive Committee wih corsages for the closing sessions.

On Saturday evening, the N P.C.·N.A.D.W.

Committee, Mrs. Bingham , !l 1', Chairman, and Mrs. Burnaugh had the pleasure of entertaining at dinner Mrs. David G. McCarn, Dean of Women, Northwestern Uni"ersity, and Deans' representative on the Joint Committee. On Sunday evening. Mrs. Burnaugh and the Committee on Eligibility and Nationalization of Social Groups, Mrs. Irving Brown, Olairman, met at dinner with the representatives of Affiliated PanhclJeni cs, Professional Panhellenics, and Association of Education Sororities for a helpful conference on inter·Panhellenic situations.

National Panhellenic Congress appreciated greatly the assistance of its ab le and alert parliamentarian , Mrs. W. G. Suthers, and the splendid and effective work of Gertrude Anderson, A E fl , Chairman of the Committee on Publicity, as director of newspaper publicity for the Congress.

The Congress closed with the induction into office of the Executive Committee for the coming two years: Mrs. George Cunningham;

<I> n IT, Chairman; Amy Burnham Onken, II B <1>, Secretary; and L. Pea rle Green , K A e, Treasurer. Mrs . Cunningham set a high goal for National Panhellenic Congress, when, in accepting the office, she said:

" I assU1lle the Chairmanship with a real pride in the organization and a deep sense of responsibility, and also with the realiuti o n that we can accomplish o nlv those things that we set about to do When we are here, we talk. great deal about changing trends and new standards and patterns of conduct. but. after all. when we compue the principles of living today with those of former we find that the truer aspects of socia l living have changed vep( little . We are still guided b." the same ideals that prompted our f oundings. So we who have assumed the responsibilities of making fraternities more effective, worthwhile organiutions will redouble our efforts durin,2 the next two years so that the high objectives of this Pan hellenic Congress will become effective on our individual campuses and that we will make a real contnbuti on [0 the fraternity srstem and to 'Education for Victory·...

"Delightful"-Say The Editors

Condensed from AccounJ Writ/en by

WILMA SMITH LELAND, A 0 TI

EDIToRS will always rem ember the year 1943 as being the time most of them attended the Editors' Conference as the major gathering at the Medinah Club, a,icagn. The majority of their number were not there to attend N.P .C. as alternates. That being the case they were not admitted to meetings of N .P.C.

Contrary to some advance opinions the meetings of the Editors' Conference benefited by the arrangement since the customary "sandwiching" of meetings was not necessary. Discussions were leisurely and thorough. There was ample opportunity to meet socially and inform ally between sessions.

This year there were a number of round tables for special officers and the first meeting of the Editors' Conference was held at 2 :00 P.M. on October 31 to coincide with these others. Christelle Ferguson, editor of The Eleusis of X n, Chai rman, opened the meeting. Tho se present introdu ced themselves, for the benefit of the new ed itors who were welcomed. Irene Boughton, editor of The LAmp of fl Z, attended some meetings.

/\. quick survey showed that there are six members of (2) 1: cI> present; that seven editors were on their sorority's executive board and that three do chapter visiting . Mrs. Niccolls

cal led our attention to a very interesting poster display of publicity, good and bad, prepared by Edith Huntington Anderson, A 0 n, Chai rman of the N P .C. Committee on College PanheUenics . The Chairman appointed a nominating committee: Ruth Thomson, chairman, Ina Bonney, and Helen Bower, to select candidates for the secretary-treasurers office, h eld by Adele Taylor Alford , II B <1>, who, by virtue of custom, becomes the new Chairman. Airdrie Pinkerton, l' cI> B, was elected secretary -treasurer for the new biennium.

The Planning Committee appointed in 1941, with Fran ces Warren Baker, 1: K, Chairman, and Alta Gwinn Saunders, 6. r, Florence Merdian, 1.1, and Ruth Thomson, A as members, prepared the program for the Conference. It featured round table discussions on Exchanges, led by Floren ce Merdian, <t> M; Help· ing the Printer, led by Harold B achmann of the Banta Publishing Co.; WPB Regulations, led by Wilma Smith Leland, A 0 n; and Content, led by Alta Gwinn Saunders.

.Mrs. Moore reminded us that our magazines are just SO many inches of clipped material to be turned over to agencies' clients.

The discussion on WPB regulations brought out many questions as to interpretations of

orders . Mrs . Leland pointed out that if a lighter weight paper is used, as many pages m ay be publi shed as formerly.

The Planning Committee will continue to plan the programs for the next meeting, at the request of the editors Before taking the Cllairman's position. Mrs. Alford gave her treasurer's report The editors decided to build up a savi ngs account toward a program after the war is over.

There were three social affairs. The /irst was a lunrheon at the Medinah Club at whirh the presence of 13 editors annoyed the head waiter because they were seated at one table. That table, by the way, was set "at least 20 feet from the NPC tables, because of the

noise," so the waiter confided . The dinner at the Kungsholm preceded a skit whirh th e ed itors presented for the enjoyment and en · Iightenment of N . P .C. We called it " Pan · Hellzapoppin' " and it had to do with a col · lege Panh eUenic meeting. Actually it was done at Mrs. Collins' request. The script was written by Margaret Banta and Helen Bower and all of the editors enjoyed being actresses as well as seeing the interior of the N.P.C. meeting room At a very informal party on Monday at noon a scro ll and a silver pencil were presented to Mrs. Thomson with most sincere regrets that she will not be comi ng to Editors' Conference again. She will continue to write Alpha Phi's hi story.

"Litt le yaller cage bird preens his wings, And mounts his perch and sings and sings, He feels his cage but J guess he 'low He'll take what comes and sing anyhow. And he ain't by hisself in dat, No, he ain't by hisself in dat."

WIn Morioka I was taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Schroer and their two children 9 and 13 years of a.ge. The other "guests" were four young Domin ica n Fathers (Canadians) and a few days later we "welcomed" six Do· minican nuns (Belgians) , which necessitated all of us moving from the residence into the kindergarten building next door. The day after the Sisters came, Mr. Schroer was suddenly

No words of mine can ade· D ecember 8, 1941. SlDce I have been abso- quately describe to you the terror of those first lutely cut off from the outside world for these few months-where was Mr. Schroer? for we last two years, not receiving any mail either could not get any information ; where and foreign or domestic- (and practically no op- why was his Japanese co-worker taken?

Were sides policemen), perhaps you would like to my Japanese co·workers suffering because of know a bit of my history in the four different their connection with me? What would the camps of which I was an " inmate." next knock on the door mean ?-But "knock"

On the day of the war a policeman called is figurative for now it was the home of officialon me and said that war was on; that they dom and a knock was not necessary. These wished to protect me in every way and if questions and many more kept Mrs. Schroer there should be any unpleasantness at aU to and me awake night after night as we lay in let them know immediately. I asked if they bed together for in the day time we had to knew what was going to be done with Ameri· keep up for the sake of the others who had ca ns and he said no word had come from their own like problems . At nrst our mental Tokyo as yet. But that night it did come--for distress was so uppermost the physical incoo. ] was awakened at 5:30 the next morning by veniences were quite secondary-the inconven. six policemen : "Pack your bedding, wash ience of ten of us living, or cather existing, in

a very large circle room of the kindergarten. (The children had all been sent home early on the 19th, I think-just before their auistmas-in order for us to occupy the building. "But when is our Christmas?" they asked as bewilderedly they took all their possessions and left for home after song and prayer with tbeir teacher.)

Later in Tokyo where my space was about 6 ft. by 3- 1 was to look back with a bit of longing at this rattling about in the large room. A little stove in the center of the room. that mostly smoked, left much to be desired in the way of heating-but hot water bottles used day and night made life a bit more comfortable. The stove in the room of the priests across the hall burned better so when the pathway seemed clear of policemen we would surreptitiously get some hot water from their stove. Tea cups at meal time solved the question of keeping ow: hands a bit warm while eating. (We ate our meal s in the residence where there were kitchen facilities - going back and forth three times a day under guard-the police eating at an adjoining table and insisting that we speak only Japanese-which rule we kept mostly in the breaking as we generally spoke Japanese, English, French and Latin). How (Quid we face Chrismas-the time of peace, goodwill, joy and happiness!-The words, "Fear not" rang out with new emphasis so with .a bit mO.re courage in our hearts we asked polIce permission to have the Fathers come in to our room (for in this camp we were supposed only to see and speak to the men at meal time). Gathered around the Bethlehem creche which the children and sisters had put up, the Fathers in their pure white Dominican robes, and the Sisters in their white habits and veils, Mrs. &broer, the two children and I sang the old , old Christmas hymns. We invited the police in and sang some songs in Japanese. The body was there but the heart was hack up in Kuji celebrating Cllristmas with all my children there, the program which we had practised together. And thus passed my first Christmas in an internment camp.

At the end of March we were suddenly told that the Belgian nuns could return to their convent the next day. It was a sad parting-for common sorrows , anxiety, joys, laughter and tears, and faith in God and His leading had welded our diversity into unity and to say goodbye to them after singing and kneeling in benediction was a re-opening of old wounds -and the place was well watered with the tears of us all. As soon as they left we were told that we must pack immedntely with l.isl5 of everything, and be ready to leave at eight

the next morning for Sendai . The six of us and two children were taken by four police (some of them /loing more for the trip than to escort us. I thtnk) to a former mission residence where five other priests, two lay brothers and six of our Protestant group awaited us. Here it was a queer experien ce for five of us to be sleeping on the Boor of the living rOom when in happier days we had sat in easy chairs (no room for them now) and had had carefree hours. Here began a real family life, all twenty of us working, worshipping, playing, and studying together. Here I had my first contact with the outside world when the Swiss delegate visited us and I learned of Tokyo friends-how most of them were free! After about two months we were taken to the main Sendai camp (ours had just been a branch) - in the Catholic compound, as the exchange ship was taking many of our number and we were being reorganized. Here for the first time I was with a member of our Baptist Family- Ali ce Bixby, and was with her and this larger group for about three weeks. when about twenty or more left to be evacuated . Another goodbye had to be said as in the darkness our friends passed through the gate beyond wbich we could not step foot, and out into eventual freedom. leaving Miss Porter, a young missionary who had only been out a year before being interned and should have been on the evacuation Jist; an English couple (who went a few weeks later), and me, with about thirty young Fathers and lay brothers. And there began a new phase of our life. With one exception I was the oldest member of the group and so in many ways tried to serve as a mother to my huge fami ly of "sons " The Catholic Church adjoined our house and was open to us from 5 to 6 in the morning as well as an hour in the afternoon. I never missed a sin g le morning going from 5 to 6 and this quiet worship time as well as the beauiful afternoon serv ice meant everything to me. Months later I was asked how I looked so well when we had suffered from insuflicient and inadequate food -a nd my reply was that man did not live by bread a lone. What should we have done without th is food for the inner man!

At the end of August we were all called into the office and told that we must leave for America in three days . I had never applied for evaOJa tion as I felt I wanted to stand by my little flock and new work in Kuji as long as possible-but now it was taken out of my hands. They telephoned for two of my coworkers to come down to say goodbye-but the awfulness of that day after our short interview, I prefer to forget! When we each had

ou r tw o suit cases pac ked and all of Ollr other things giv<o away and were just about ready to leave for the tra in we were again called in and told that the boat was postponed! (It turned out to be postponed for just a year .) In October our " Women ' s Society" of two was reinforced by the arrival of five Franciscan Sisters from Sapporo and we welcomed them into our happy, congenial family . But good times , in spite of the ever present guards who certainly did not follow the Japanese pattern for politeness- had to come to an end, and on December 20 this camp which had meant so much to us in laughter and in tears-was broken up and we all went to Tokyo together- the men to ODC camp and we to the women's camp where Mrs Axling and Miss Meline of our Baptist group awaited us . There were about 130 of us there, 100 sisters of 11 different orders--and thirty Protestants We were again in a Catholi c institution which had a beautiful chapel-a real refuge in a time of stress . And so life beF again for me in the fourth camp, getting adjusted anew to terribly crowded conditions, new people, and new life in an "instjtutional camp," not a family as we had had heretofore. But by that time we had learned to "take what comes and sing anyhow," and of course there were many things to sing about.

But Christmas was again a hard one. We had just arrived and landy, this time not only for our own family and work but also for our former fellow internees, some of whom we had been with from the very beginning-and we knew they were missing us for we had truly been a happy family . However, the beautiful chapel services, the pageant, the lovely Cluistmas touches that the Sisters with their skill in making something beautiful out of nothing, couId give, made it a never to be forgotten lovely day Truly we all trust to make our prison windows golden windows.

And what shall I say of the winter days

with out fire nl y t h at we were thankful ther e was nearly alw ays gl o r ious sunsh i ne and work to be done to keep us w a rm (for we did all the work of the camp ) - with bed right after early supper, hugging a n earthen jar of bot water-and alwa ys from our window the rna · jesti c sight of Mt . Fuji calling us to higher things--to look up and not down . At last the much rumored and talked of ship m aterialized Those living near by were per · mitted to go home for a night free As I lived too far away and had heen so completely cut off they le1egraphed for two of my co-workers to come down-and then left me aJone with them for a whole d ay. Can you imagine what that day meant to me-a whole two years' talk c rowded into hours! I then learned of how our work had grown and progressed-the staH doubled ! new work opened, and various agenc ies and persons deeply interested in our lone northern bit of service, And SO this time when I told them goodbye the thankfulness for God's leading and protection far outweigbed the personal sorrow at parting,

High on a mountain overlooking Rio there is a beautiful statue of the Christ holding out His hands in loving invitation As our ship sailed past this on our way to freedom there was a lower hill that for a brief time blotted out the higher- but soon tbe perspective changed and we cou ld see in its true proportion the hill which had l oomed so large as really smalland the statue on the mountain high, and visible to the last- but the arms outstretched in the distance made it appear as a cross "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men to me."

May the time come when the lower hill of war will be passed and the cross on the mountain top be seen again as the outstretched arms of OUI Master inviting East and West-"Come unto me all ye that are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest "

W e lco m , 10 Mi.ss Rulh Dyer, thl new Di"ctor 0/ the Pi B ela Phi SelJl emenl School at Gatlinbll'" Ttnnusel .

Mrs. Munn Introduces Ruth Dyer

D EAR PI PHI S :

May I tell you about the new Director of our beloved Settlement School? She is Ruth Dyer, Iowa r , graduate of the science division of the Iowa State College . Ruth is well qualified in many ways to take over the direction of our project. She has had teaching experien ce, so that she understands the prob lems and can " speak the language" of the teachers, the superintendent, and the couoty officials

A few years ago Ruth managed a lovely antique shop in Evanston, Illinois. This experience qualifies her as an appreciative and und erstanding helper to Ethel Snow at Arrowcraft. Ruth and Ethel are friends of long stand-

versation about a farm and its problems. Ruth understands these problems and can intelligently ask questions when outside guidance is needed. This knowledge is going to be especially helpful since we have been without a Smith-Hughes farm teacher in our school the past two years.

For the past year and a half Ruth has been on the campus at Iowa State College as housemother to a rather new sorority. There, besides her duties as chaperone, she had charge of the meal planning, the buying and of all the problems relative to food stamps and ration books. They hated to lose Ruth and I did feel guilty in being partly responsible for their loss.

So that you may have the reaction from someone who has just met Ruth , may I <juote from Mildred Sale's recent letter to commIttee, where she tells of the open house held in Teachers' Cottage on December 21, when the townspeople were invited. to meet our new Director. " Ruth has lovely poise, meets easily, and carries a conversation along WIth no difficulty, if it happens to be one that doesn't carry itself."

Ruth is interested in old glass and is really quite an authority on the subject. She has taken some of her things to the School so when you collectors of old glass meet her you can have fun chatting about an interesting subject.

Many of you know Ruth , but for those of you who do not, I hope that I have made you feel dose to her. The job of Director of the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School is a big one. Won't you continue to give Ruth the loyal support and splendid help you have given all directors in the past? Our School is such a won derful project! You should see the light on Ruth's face when she speaks of it-oh I just know we have a wonderful new Director! Best wishes to all Pi Phis for a New Year of peace and happiness.

Now many of us may know all about Center gathered within its slightly warped walls manag ing a farm, but I imagine lots of us all the problems of living of the entire comcould m e rely carry on a rather one-sided coa- munity That will be so as long as we continue

to serve, for birth and death, health and ill · ness, the stark, unadorned struggle for life, and the love and beauty of li.ing-iliese are the t hin gs that pass through the little white cottage day after day. These are the things that bring a few more gray hairs, as well as a wealth of affection. Folk cannot fa« together dream's fulfillment or the tragedy of despair, without trust and understanding.

One cannot measure the accomplishments of this Health Center by statistics . 1£ that could be so, we should say there had been so many lives started, so many stilled, some bodies saved from disfigurement or fatal disease, fear con· quered, superstition erased, and faith and con· fidence strengthened. Lessons have been taught, in theory and in reality. Perhaps we shall never see the evidence of knowledge gained We can b ut hope that day by day, there is progress. We can hope that by living together, play · ing together, working togcther-yes--even

"Mix Challlltfs"

"Miz Chalmers," our nurse at the Settlement SchOOl, has seen aIL phases of life in Gatlinburg and in a personal letter to me she writes, "I've watched over them before birth, patched them together, and told them storiC3. I've pulled them tbJ'ougb masln. heartache and love affairs. helped them with their lessons and married them off. l've spanked them and played with them, scolded them and laughed with them, washed their faces and held them in my arms tiJi death took them away I am very humble. How could I ever fail them in their hour of need?" And then she adds , "We are having the wartime epidemic o f babies, bless em. and .6ne, hearty babies they are '"

The aced. and the trends of Health Servi ce she has outlined in the accompanyinS a..rticJe .

:fiag the same songs. we may. together , e our lives a. little easier and safer. We discussed, at the last Red Cross Work Shop, the evaluation of our several jobs-to set a goal, and to take stock, now and then , lest we stray too far from the path. Difficult it is to sta.te in raw, blunt terms, our goal for

the future. Our watchword has ever been ··Service . " Not blind, unreasoning servitude. Not merely working for people, but working with them to attain happier and more helpful environment. Each baby bath , each school in· spection, each conference with a mother·to-be, has behind the need of the moment, the build· ing for the future. We have been trying for years to teach iJlness and accident prevention . We have upheld the value of inoculation, of nutrition and hygiene. We have stressed the importance of early diagoosis and treatment of disease. We have advocated regularity and early training and intelligent care of our chil· dren and our sick folk.

And there has been progress. Lessons learned in the class room or 10 a log cabin are being applied many times. The "anticky" youngster of yesterday is th e proud daddy of today, and the woman who stood by him through the measles or the first love affair, is naturally the one to help him pin the first "hippen" on the first baby. And the girl who learned to give a sponge bath in class, will find it easy to follow directions for makiog formulas or improvising a croup tent.

Bel/lah Mu o re allli her children

But should we ever co ntinue to lead, our leadership would be seriously at fault. We are educating for advancement-foc independen ce . That we are advancing is evidenced in many ways. With the Health Center as a c1earing-

house, the churches and the community ace taking care of the needy. We have formed an unofficial sharing corporation where clothes and bathinettes, nursery chairs and galoshes are exchanged . We share the rides, and we also share the things that are increasingly hard to get. And we, in emergencies. care for one another's families Those who know how, help those who would learn inter-dependence of the Health Center and with one another. It may not be easy to sing at the final service for one whose hand you held during the last long night, or the baby you helped "A-borrun/l;' but it is part payment on the debt of affectIon and trust-eviden ce, indeed of interdependence.

Merretta , our film-baby -in-the-scafes , came in to the office the other day, all bright smiles, as usual. She pulled out the little chair, and rocked and sang to hersel f, while mother and I talked_ Health'! and active from the perky how on the wisp 0 shining bair to the spotless little shoes, every stage of her development has been discussed. Nelle was in the grades when I came and Ernest was in High School. They refuse to listen to Granny tales and follow directions to the letter. And this is but one inst.nce of how our young folle put training into practice .

Major and Gladys have a son--one week old today Major is off to the war, but Gladys is sending for Bundeson's Baby Book, even as you have done and is preparing to put up a good fight on the home front. Graduates from the Home Nursing Classes are now using in their homes, knowledge gained from their lessons. One of the boys who took First Aid in high school is now doing good work in an Air Evacuation Unit in the South Seas , and two of our girls have entered Nurses' Training this year.

In the rural schools it is great fun to be sent to the car for the Nurse's bag, and to gather around with the others, whjle things are spread on the fresh towel, ready for whatever nrst aid seems necessary . The whys and wherefores of various medicines, the packaging of sterile dressings. healing processes , and prevention of infection, remedies used in the home-are topics of infinite absorption. And judging from the carefully bandaged cuts so proudly shown, some homes are profiting by the lessons . Many times parents come into the office, for themselves or with children, stating that some school child had insisted on the boundless ability of "The Nurse" to make all things right. Now they will accept unquestioningly, the occasional statement, "I am not sure enougb . Let's go to the doctor and find out what to do:" The sound commonsense underlying the theoey of the book, the reason for balanced meals, for inoculations, foe rules of hygiene are exemplified again and again. No contact is void of tea ching-nor should it ever be . But such teaching should not be dogmatic. No good will ever (orne from the " Holier-thanthou" approach. After all, here are many times when tile teacher has gained more than she gave. I have never yet completed a course of teaching without learning almost as many things as I have taught. Perhaps they were not the same as "stood in the book;' but they are workable things, adapted to the situation. And above all things, she who would work in rural areas--particularly with mountain folkmust learn to be flexible and to improvise. And, when, together, we work out the solutions to our problems-whether it be the proper training of the pre-sch ool child, or the application of the rules of hygiene from a text book, we are laying a firm foundation for better living.

"Service," then, is not now the goal for which we strive. For what we are trying to do has more of guidao ce---i) f cooperation--than that. Education is progress, not so much the actual learning as the increasing ability of adap-

tation to changing ci rcumstan ces . Could we inculcate inspiration and confidence into our ed uca tional development, then we would be achieving progress . Hard as it is to expres s our desires in tangible words, perhaps as good a phrase as any would be " Health Gujdance."

Now, how far toward the goal have we come ? He who is swimming in the river , with head close to the tide, cannot mark his progress as well as the man on the shore. But there have been advancements .

So we are becoming firmly established in the new phase of existen ce at the Health Center. Gradually, that there be no abrupt change, with its resultant confusion and possible resentment, we are taking on the habiliments of an educator-a health mentor, if you will. Our business is prevention- a positive role . Our business is with living- safe and sane . We are banded together-the community and I ,--to banish , as far as humanly possible, filth and disease, fear and superstitution. There are still heart aches and discouragements , but we have started in the right direction.

What do we want for the future? First and above all, a mobile dental unit. One so con· structed that we can get to the isolated areas at least once each month. One that would be independent of power lines and financial worries. I firmly believe, that within a short time, such a unit could pay for its running expenses. Stop to think that there is but one dentist in the whole of Sevier County, an elderly man swamped with emergencies . that there are no bus lines reaching into rural areas, that cars and trucks are few, and used for business only. Dental corrections seem almost impossible, in the majority of cases, and are our biggest problem.

Next in importance comes the corporation of a definite health education program in the schools. There is need for an authorized teacher - acceptable to the State Board of Education, so that the students may get their credits. But fully as important is the selection of a teacher who knows her subject, one who is '1ualified in theory and experience to handle the course.

Last of all on our list for wishful thinking, is a Health Center. Sentiment and familiarity must not blind us to the fact that the pictures9ue, homey little cottage is not practical. A unit with firm foundations and level floors, with walls that exclude daylight and rain, and windows that fit tightly; an office, light and cheery, a workroom that can be kept clean and convenient, a clinic room large enough to care for classes and demonstrations, a power line that will handle more than one burner at a time, and a dry heat sterilizer for dress ings .

Th ese a rc in o u r dreams for the future. They are pract ical wishes an d in time will be a reality.

There is much to be acc omplished- wond e rf ul , vital thin gs . It is our privilege to have

Word Pictures of the Health Center Service

By AGNES WRl GHT SPRI NG

Whether you hurry up the cobblestones to the front porch of the Health Center, or whether you come along the concrete walk from the T each ers' Cottage and enter through the back door, you will always find sympathetic aid from th e skillful hands of "Miss Marjorie," o ur Nur se. Or. if it is only a word of cheer

for homesickness that you need, you'll find that, too. For suddenly Nurse Chalmers remembers that she must make a call in the Glades or up Elkmont way, and tells you to hop in the car and go along.

And after the drive with her through the Smokies no matter how long or how shortyou come back refreshed in mind and spirit.

The shiny bottles and instruments in the white cabinets, the neat card files, the shelves of little blankets and "hippens,"-even the clean smell of those rooms over which the Nurse presides instill confidence.

No onc is better known up and down the hollers, in the coves, in the Burg, or in the school rooms than "Miz Cha1mers."

A proud young mother stops the Nurse in Charlie Ogles store with this greeting; "You should see Elmer now. He's grown a bushel !" Then she leads the way to a baby carriage in which an infant sleeps.

Another mother with tears of gratitude in her eyes, brings her child to the Health Center door to show that his little feet that are still encased in braces ace "a sight better."

Little muddy handprints on car fenders attest how children group around the Nurse's ca r as she prepares to drive away after taking care of a sick 'un up in Turkey's Nest.

And how eagerly those little folk wait their turn in the schoolroom when the Nurse gives the various "shots" for whooping-cough or diphtheria or typhoid And there is never a whimper,--except, of course, from the wee ones in their mother's arms, who are too small to realize what is happening.

When you drop into the Nurse's living quar-

You are quite unaware that the large rocks near the doors are used to prop the warped doors shut or open, as desued. You are not conscious of the fact that the basement is moldy and the foundations are wobbly from the constant attack of termites.

Every time I crossed the School grounds during my stay at the School last autumn, I could see in my mind's eye a lovely. new substantial Health Center, with adequate equipment to take care of the tremendous needs of the community. It seemed to me that through our Health work and through our Nurse we have the most direct contact with the homelife of those who live back off the main paved highway.

Believe it or not, that homelife in many, many ways is still two generations behind that which you and I enjoy and which many know who live in the Burg.

With men coming back from the war, many of whom will be broken in body,-but still able to take their places in the old home community --our opportunity for service undoubtedly will be doubled.

How soon can we make the dream of a New Health Center come true?

Mrs. Chamberlain visited Sarajevo, Bosnia's capital. "Here the witches' brew which had been simmering all over Europe, boiled over in 1914 with the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria-and the continent was afire."

In the midst of Sarajevo's Bazaar, embodying all the oriental charm of centuries long past, rises a tall domed mosque, purported to be one of the three finest in the world .

"As you enter the Bazaar you walk straight into the Arabian Nights. There is nothing like it this side of Damascus. It is a labyrinth of nar· row winding streets, packed solidly with tiny, open-front shops where busy Moslems sit, each in his dark lair, making by hand artides of great beauty. In th e streets of the silversmiths , of the brassmakers , of the coppersmiths, small fires glow and hammers pound out delightful trays aod pitchers, coffee sets and kettles. The street of the bakers is fragrant with hot crusty loaves, made by housewives and baked in pub· lie shops in Balkao fashinn."

Serbian history is depicted as one of desper· ate struggle and light for mere existence. Thjs, Mrs. Olamberlaio rdates, is exemplified on the Plain of Kossovo, where in 1389, a staunch little Serbia army stood fast against the Ottoman host. At this time began the five black centuries of Turkish rule when invaders ultimately swept on to Vienna's gates.

Rounding out her account, the author writes, "There is little to say about Belgrade.

Prob · ably many of the people who were so kind to us are dead. Jugoslavia will see darker days before peace comes. But the fi e rce Slav spirit of freedom will see her through."

Mrs. Oumberlain's Jugoslavian chronicle is indeed replete with unbiased facts, and pre· sented in an easy, well ·spaced style. Her knowl · edge is obviously based on an exhaustive and sympathetic study of the people and places she visited . Net result, an artIcle filled with sheer beauty, coupled with a dramatic back· ground of strife, and a battle for a brave country's mode of existence.
