Seventy Years of Pi Beta Phi! 1867 to 1937!

(( WITH THIS April 28 we have passed our seventieth milestone. From twelve members to 26,OOo-from one chapter to 80! An unbroken line of progress, from the plan in the minds of those Founders to build up a national to the present day, when expansion is something to be carefuly considered, and when each new charter grant means perhaps years of effort and probation-what a record for us to view with pride! "

((THE PREAMBLE of the original constitution of the Fraternity, given as 'a whole in the History of Pi Beta Phi, gives as the object of the organization, "to cultivate sincere friendship, establish the real object of life and promote the happiness of humanity," and article I of the same constitution says "The object of this organization shall be the advancement of its members in the most delicate yet strong friendship, mental assistance in all matters, endeavoring to dispel the gloom from the lives of all around them, to further the cause of religion by exerting an influence of virtue and charity throughout all intercourse, also to enable any member to follow the dictates of her own conscience knowing she will be upheld and encouraged in independence." Let us on the Founders' Day rededicate n B <I> to the pursuit of these objects-the original wording may seem quaint to moderns, yet the thought is clear and of no time or period,

(( No EXPRESSION· of our gratitude can be adequate to say "Thank you" to our Founders, to the ten who are gone, and to the precious two who remain with us, a constant inspiration. XlII

THE A R ROW OF PI BETA PHI

VOLUME 53

EDITORIALS

TNUMBER 4

HE YEAR just about to close in the colleges has been one of progress. It has shown great improvement over the record of a number of years past. Increased enrollment in colleges and resumption of college improvement programs, have brought in their train greater prosperity for the fraternities and a of the hard conditions under whkh many students have gone to college in the years since 1929.

The dose of such a year is a fitting time to dedicate an issue of the ARRow to the active chapters. We are proud of the record of oue chapters in these hard years; we are proud of the fine pledge groups of these years, and especially of those of this last most successful year.

+ + +

Perhaps fraternity girls do not think! At least if they do think, they have not responded to our request for articles to restore the former department of the ARROW that was called "What a Fraternity Girl Thinks." Elsewhere in this issue we reproduce the one article for that department which came to us. Perhaps it will start the ball roIling! Re-read the articles in the old ARROWS for ideas. Interesting it is indeed that they might have been written today, SO perennial are the problems of colleges and college students. There were rush ing and pledg. ing. rejoicing and heartaches, then as now; standards were discussed twenty years ago as they are today. Perhaps the world has changed less than we think it has.

"Was of> B K Worth While?" by Harold Larrabee, Harvard '16, an article in the Key Reporl" of of> B K, quotes some interesting facts from a book by John R. Tunis entitled "Was College Worth While?"

In the book Mr. Tunis draws conclusions from a study of one hundred men chosen from the Harvard dass of 1911, twenty-five from each of four groups- athletes , of> B K men, club men, and average unheard of men He finds that the incomes of the four classes reported range from that of a tramp "who has not slept in a bed in years" to one of $125,000 a yearand those of the of> B K group ave raged $5000 a year in 1934.

But Mr. Larrabee shows that the conclusions of Me. Tunis are not infallible from his method of choice and further that such figures might not have been true at a time of general p rosperity

There is a wide variance of opinion between the two writers-somewhere in between them the truth of the matter must lie. Perhaps of> B Ks are not rich men- but neither have they been paupers in a day when dire poverty has come to many.

The possession of a of> B K key may bring with it a financial reward-even if it did not, it would be worth having and worth working for!

Why after all do we go to Surely not just to bring home good grades or poor, not to be measu red by their yardstick of success or failure! That would not be education, but a mere parroting of superficial information.

Real education goes deeper than that. It should not merely teach us something to be remembered for a moment or a year. It should lay the foundation of an endless and untiring p'ursuit of knowledge, whether from books or from life itself. It will only be real education .f it inspires a sort of divine curiosity, insatiable for knowledge. A great professor once said "The aim of education is to teach us where to find out what we want to know!"

How true that is !-

"With the Actives" in this issue paints a bright picture of what our girls are doing. It is by no means a complete record- twenty ·seven chapt ers sent in no material at all . Others reported that their elections to various honor societies would come too late to be used. But out of those sent in we find 46 Mortar Boards (of these four are h e re listed under Who's Who) ten of them presidents; twenty-one girls are members in Wh o's Who of American Colleges. Note the high offices held-<l ne girl, Phyllis Emmons, Iowa B, has five presidencies on her campus! Michigan B has five Mortar Boards, IlIinois B·,d four, Colorado B and Oregon B three each; Tennessee A has three girls in th eir organization similar to Mortar Board. Certainly they are not lagging behind in activities .

Look into the faces of these, our girls who are most prominent on their own campusesand then be pessimistic about the girls of our times if you can!

Stirring times, these!

A world full of strife and controversy, wars and rumors of wars , strikes and threats of strikes!

What are we doing to fit ourselves to live these days ful1y ? Never was good citizenship more necessary-never perhaps was there less effort to acquire that virtue. Yet never was its acquisition made so easy for all of us.

Critics of the use wom en in the United States have made of their hard-won ballot say that women in general are too vague in their knowledge of issues , too superficial in their basis of judgment. A serious charge , that ! Espec ially when we have the radio, magazines full of interesting comment, newspapers, even movie dramatization of current events. These agencies spread out before us the pageant of our times - true, the wording is often irritatingly partisan-but at least plenty of material is offered us as a basis for the formation of Our own opinions.

This world of swiftly.moving event s-what are we educated women doing for it? How mu ch or how little do we know about it?

An instance-how long ago did we last read the Constitution of the United States? The Elel/sis of Chi Omega issued a copy of it as a supplement to its last issue, perhaps because many people admit they do not possess such a thing.

Surely we must have it somewhere if only in an old school history- why not read it and study it?

Especially fitting is it that we should do so this year, when the celebration of the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of its adoption is going on. On the proper celebration of it a large national committee is working, and Pi Beta Phi and the other national fraternities are represented on that committee. It rests with the individuals to make that celebration vital -and our work for it should begin with an accurate of the principles of the Constitution itself.

THE ARROW has recently joined with the national journals of 46 other leading fraternities and sororities to participate in an effort to attract national advertising to a limited number of their pages. The desirability of using the advertising of only high quality firms and products in the fraternity magazines has been advocated for a number of years because of the revenue it would provide for better magazines or other fraternity services, and because it has been pointed out that such advertising would lift the magazines out of the house -organ class in the estimation of some readers who compare them with the general magazines that reach their homes.

Because each fraternity magazine'S individual c irculation is too small to be practical for use by national advertisers, it was necessary that th e ir respective circulations be grouped for presentation to the advertiser as a single unit. This has been done in the present undertaking, forming a total circulation of nearly 400, 000 ; 83 % of which has been found to be alumni subscribers and 17% of whom are underg raduate readers . Because the circulation of fraternity magazines is steadily growing, the annual inc rease for this group approximates 20 ,000 readers. The distribution of the cirrulation matches closely the distribution of the national population .

The advertising group has been named Fraternity MaFnes Associated , and its supervision is in the hands of the outgrowth of a committee appointed to study the project by the Fraternity Editors association of the National Interfraternity Conference. The directors include: George Banta, Jr. , former president and editor of e. e , and head of the Banta Publishing Company, Menasha, Wis. ; K. D . Pukipher, editor IT K A, and a Detroit advertising man; Oeste r W . Cleveland, editor of l: X; Leland F. Leland , editor of T K E and head of Leland Publishers , In c., St Paul , Minn .; A. M. Wharlield, editor of AX p, who recently opened the New York City offices of Fraternity Magazines Associated as its manager, and Stewart S. Howe, national alumni secretary of K 1:, located in Chicago as president of The Stewart Howe Alumni Service Th e principal offices of the project have been established at 1618 Orrington Avenue, Evanston , 111., with Mr. Howe in charge.

Members having suggestions and being willing to aid in establishing the fraternity magazines as recognized mediums by national advertisers are invited to participate.

Only non-objectionable types of advertising will be accepted for publication .

Values

By MARlA LEONARD, Indiana r Dean of W omen, University of Illinois

(An address given at IT B Conventi on, Edgewa ter Beach H otel, Chicago )

WE ARE h earing more frequently today the current phrase, "The whole man goes to school." Perhaps the emphasis in the past has been and is still laid upon the training of the mind of youth in our present school systems . A great new value is dawning

DEAN MARIA LEONARD

on the American consciousness, however, that the object of a college experience is not alone expressed by high scholarship in terms of grades, but is the learning how to develop one's full capability in all areas of one's personality and individuality so that he may assist himself to his best self-realization and grow up to his full stature not only intellectually, but physically, emotionally, morally, and spiritually . Plato said it thus 300 years B .C., "Edu cation is that process which brings to body and soul all the perfection and all the beauty of which they are capable." That object of education as statoo by Plato was probably all sufficient for the Greeks at that time, lovers of beauty and Ht that they were However, today that goal goes just half the way. Society

is demanding more of each individual , than that he develop himself fully and finely, he must now recognize that he has responsibilities to others besides himself Call it the spirit of service if you will.

Owen D. Young has described this as '"the sanctity of obligations ." And what might this be for the women of the 20th century you ask? None other than that their chief concern-says Chari Williams, the National President of America's Business and Professional Women-be the preserving and fostering of human cultural values, and their duty and privilege be, to set the standards of society Educating oneself is a process, but a purpose must always be greater than a process, The American fraternity women's code as quoted from the Zeta Tau Alpha journal of March , 1936 has caught the vision- let me give it to you, "We, the fraternity women of America, stand for preparation for service through character building inspired in the close conta ct and deep friendship of fraternity life. To us fraternity life is not the enjoyment of special privileges for ourselves, but an opportunity to prepare for wise and broad human service,"

College and fraternity women are truly a privileged class, when one recalls that each college man and woman represents nine other unprivileged young people who have been denied the advantages of higher education.

In each generation there is a vast defeated army of youth, beaten before they have a chance at life, to grow, and develop into useful men and women, who go down to crime (about one -third of all those apprehended by law are 21 years or below) usually because they have been denied opportunities such as college men and women have. "To whom much is given much will be required," the Good Book says. Am I my brother's keeper ? Yes, decidedly!

It is interesting to note that a college student pays for just one-third the actual cost of his education, whether he be graduated from a small endowed college or from a lasger state university. This debt incurred demands the highest type of citizenship to the state

from our college men and women, not only in being but in doing, for education must precede legislation.

I like that phrase you fraternity women of America have chosen in your code viz ." through chanCkr building, " for never before in the history of the world , with science in the saddle, has it been more urgent that men of science be men of character. " Knowledge without character is vulnerable at every point" for it tums its power into developing prolits--rather than personalities. To i1Iustrate, at a fairly recent Brewer's Association meeting in one of our large cities, ODe pre· siding officer said "we must enlist immediately, through advertising, the interest of 50 ,000 more youth in drinking liquor if we wish to reach our goal of $5 ,000,000 more prolit this year."

"Mortgaged" said the youthful editor of one Unive<sity daily- " Youth 's future mortgaged!" "No," say I-" Not mortgaged hut challenged !"

Should our privileged youth slack, there is no one who can and will interpret life linely and carry on the standards of a cultural society as leaders of men.

College men and women have the chan ce to step out of the crowd of millions milling around at a lower level where little vision is possible. When one is in the crowd he cannot lead because he cannot see. When one steps out of the crowd as a standard bearer- many will follow. A standard is something to go by, not to go by. One thing about a true standard. it never fails. It stands as Its name implies throughout the ages, such as the famous' old standards-Greenwich time, seventy-fifth meridian, Or the pyramidal inch of true measurement in the pyramid of Gizeh or the character of Abraham Lincoln. are four outstanding sorority standards which I shall mention in these few lines on VALVES which will place lirst things first in the fraternity woman's mind and heart. They are:

Self Standards

Scholarship Standards

Service Standards

Social Standards

I place self standards lirst because a group or fraternity is just as strong as its weakest member, like the iron chain with one rubber link. We must keep on growing individually, not to self-expression but to self- realization. The more self progresses the more unseLfish one becomes. Four qualities of heart are lack-

ing in a selfish person-an understanding heart-and • deep appreciation of the personality of others, a social sensitiveness, and a sense of values . These a truly educated person possesses, for "Education is not something we get-but something we become."

The second standard, that of Scholarship , is a by-product of the love of learning It should never be a direct goal, for that would be bargainiog with culture, and culture never comes that way.

I remember an English professor, a scholar, once telling a young post-graduate not to strive to gtt a master of arts but to strive to be a master of arts. It has long been popular to go to college but not always so popular to study. In this business of studying the important thing is the love of learning, through this one can and will eventually climb to intellectual and spiritual living.

The third standard that of Service I touched upon in the beginning . We may work hard to receive an education, we may strive for culture, but in all this process of seU and group development we lind ultimately that we keep just what we share. There is in any sorority group "a sanctity of obligations" of the older actives to the younger girls-no one has the right to live her life as she pleases-for she has pledged the group her best . Freshmen need models, not masters. In times past, fraternities seemingly have forgotten this and this is one avenue through which cruel criticism has come to the fraternity world, not wholly undeserved.

The fourth, that of social standards, has perhaps been the most discussed subject in and out of college, for life has been SO much accelerated these last twenty -live years that it caused one philosopher to say that America has lived as much in the last quarter of a century as in any other one hundred years previous.

A too rapid growth, lilee Jack's bean stalk, is not always a sturdy one and always causes read j ustment. One notices this groping today for sound underfoot tread in late magazine articles such as a A New Morality; Morals in a Day of Relativity; the Unmoored Age, etc.

Now the whole question of social standards resolves itself into this question which each individual must answer for himself. What is the safest and surest procedure to follow in one's life in order to briog the best results not only to oneself but to one's children ? This makes us differentiate in our own minds definitely between speed and progress,

between going faster or going forward.

A few social standards ) shall mention. However, I am conscious that like a book on eti9uette, a short article can hardly suffice for a vItal dynamic code for college for the answer must always come from within one's heart, it cannot come from without.

Having worked in several co-educational institutions and being a product of two such schools, I naturally turn first to the social relationships between young men and women.

One of earth's greatest privileges is this friendship between men and women. It operates on three levels, first the physical, lor we Jove to be near those whom we admire and respect; secondly, friendship stimulates mental growing, an enlargement and enrichment between friends intellectually with mutual interests.

Thirdly, there is a psychic element which enters true fine friendship, a spiritual sharing of interest. This is proved for it still grows during the absence of the loved one. One test of true love is that it continues to grow; it always keeps itself in constant progression. This differentiates love from cheaper substitutes.

Emotional upsets are likely to come from too familiar and frequent physi cal contacts, when deep seated emotions, related to the most sacred functions of life, are teased and stirred. These thrills result in nerve dissipation when indulged in too often, "for the highest capacities of life are sacrificed first when life degenerates its highest function."

This means the power to love. "Love never takes a privilege without a responsibility."

This is its glorious secret. Careless aDd familiar relationship between the sexes takes the privilege and refuses the responsibility. This is not love but passion. "True love brings fulfillment always to its purpose." Familiarity has no purpose and becomes the standard of the girl who risks. The continuing qualit, is always the acid test of the surest and safest way.

So much has been said regarding drinking that hardly can a word be said regarding social standards that does not include a word about it.

One statesman has said- Today, drinking prevents thinking . Tomorrow, thinking will prevent drinking. When) was asked to discuss social standards at the national conven· tion I decided I would not subject a group of thinking college trained women to the humiliation of sitting and listening to a dis-

course on "how far can we go and still be decent." I certainly would never discourse on the subject "how far can we go and still be polite ?"

"Holding liquor like a lady" implies that the one who drinks most frequently carries it the best; which places the standard on ones' ability to carry drinks.

This social stlndard would mean, the more accustomed to excessive drinking a young woman is, the leiS liable to discipline whether of civic, campus, or fraternity law she becomes. The unfairness of a fraternity who lowers its standards to that of its weaker students is tragic, ) think, for if they "go under" they are "kicked out" in college vernacular and this is not a S<Juare deal.

Speaking on this "curtaded liberty question" Dr. Smith in Bamtis Greek Exchan ge says "Liberty means doing whatever does not injure others."

We are fast turning out of the age of individual rights to the age of human obliga· tions. The person who argues for individual rights has not yet seen the new light. Mod· eraJe drinking becomes insidiously harmful to others, because of "the cocks ureness" it instills in the mind and actions of the one deceived. Read if you will statistics of the automobile accidents caused from moderate drinking because of oblique vision , retarded response (88 ft. in one second) and impaired coordination.

Good sportsmanship requires we play safe - aU railroad engineers are required to take an oath of 110 drinking because they hold human lives in their power. Just so does every individual auto driver, what about his good sportsmanship? Would you employ a chauffeur to drive you through mountain passes who drinks even moderately?

A young successful Chicago business man said recently "part of a gentleman'S unwritten code now is to offer a young woman a drink, but ten times out of ten deep in his heart he would rather she wouldn't take it even though he urges it."

No one can be clever without judgment and in drinking judgment goes first, then seJf·control, then conscience . No one has ever deliberately set about to debauch himself by drink . It is in moderate drinking that the habit usually creeps in and takes its foothold. ) have always been justly proud of Pi Beta Phi's record of leadership in social standards on the many campuses where I have visited and lectured. ) felt that in accepting the

privilege and honor of membership in Pi Phi we accepted responsibility to the younger also to the weaker girl. Pi Beta Phi must always be to them a stimulation to strengthen their best points and not a bending to their weaker ones through special privileges.

As soon as a fraternity asks to have its standards lowered, its flying colors are being hauled down like a flag in the army. It is then beginning to acknowledge defeat. Watch then your chapter leaders for they are stepping

back into the milling crowd. Today leaders need courage to stand. Remember we are turning slowly, but turning, from the age of human rights into the age of human obligation! Social sensitiveness will be Ollr watchword; with this, social standards will take care of themselves "The thing we enthrone in Ollr hearts daily, that will we eventually become." The standard that Pi Beta Phi enthrones in her heart today, th at will she eventually become

LOST LAND

When I was young in Arcady, A million years ago, We clambered up a rocky cliff

To watch the sea below, We danced along the sandy shore, Or raced across the grass, Long years ago in Arcady, Oh carefree lad and lass.

I'm sure we sang a gl«ful SODg While paddling in the spray, And dreamed about the yean to come

The marvelous •• some day."

Gayly we wandered overland

While flowers held their dew, When I was yOW1g in Arcady, And you were young there, too.

WH EN my spirits need a lift and the ga rd en languishes for attention, I reach for a trowel and delve into the art of soil cultivation. Yes, I use a trowel for rul· tivation-sharp, shiny, stainless steel, and imported 8 years ago (Thomas Gunn Ltd., Eng· land). They didn't have stainless-steel trowels

in America then. When asked for at local stores, merchants said that stainless steel didn't hold the edge like regular steel. My trowel has disproved this. The soil doesn't stick to it. It's the handle won't loosen, nor will the shank snap. It' s my most treasured garden tool.

For working among seedlings and rock plants, I lind the small·prong rultivator con· venient. I purchased mine at a local hardware store.

Next in my kit of indispensable garden tools come the heavy Japanese cutting shears from Yamanaka. For quick, eflicient, and

comfortable snipping of seed heads, trimming off leaves, and cutting flowers, they have no peer. The handles are wide enough not to c ramp the lingers.

Then comes my garden basket which is easily carried over the arm. I lind it ideal to hold freshly gathered flowers, or even to carry away garden debris. This basket is made at the Pi Beta Phi Settlement Schoo l, Smoky Moun· tain Park , Tennessee.

With this trio of tools and a lady's stain· less steel spade in reserve, my gardening is en joyably done.

Mrs . Forest Hutten locher, Convention initiate at Yellowstone, has served on the editorial staff of Beller H omes and Gardens for eight years. She has been editor of the Garden Club Exchange, a Better Homes and Gardens' News Service to America's clubs, since its inauguration seven years ago. She is the au· thor of 'The Garden Oub Handbook," "My Book of Flowers for Juniors," and a new book "Flower and Table Arrangements for Every Occasion," to be published soon by A. T. DeLaMare. Mrs. Huttenlocher is also table arrangement co nsultant for Beller H omes and Gardens magazine. She has written many articles and lectured nationally on this subject as well as on gacdening.

Mrs. Huttenl oche r assisted in organizing the National Council of State Garden Oubs, Inc., and has served on its board as Chairman of the Committee on Printing and Publica· tions, First Vice·President, and Recording Secretary She is the only woman member of the National Legislation Committee of the Des Moines Chamber of Commerce, and has served as Vice·President and Legislative Chairman of the Iowa Federation of Garden Clubs for the past four years . Mrs . Hutten· locher has served as patroness to, and judge of, the Chicago Flower Show, also at the In · ternational Flower Shop in New York City.

Josephine Schain, Minnesota A, has succeeded Mrs Carrie Chapman Catt, Iowa r, as president of the Conference for the Cause and Cure of War. Mrs. Catt was especially honored at the recent meeting of the Conference, and one of the guest speakers was Bishop G Brom· ley Oxnam, whose wife is Ruth Fisher Oxnam, California r.

Pi Phis in the Mardi Gras

A GAIN the Mardi G ras in New Orleans! And L"\.. again it is with pleasure that we bring news that Pi Phis have played a gracious and charm ing part in that festiv:a.1 time.

Last year, Coca Jahoclee, Louisiana A, was Queen of Rex and the Carnival. Th is year, Jessie ]anviu, daughter of Judge and Mrs Georgelanvier (Jessie Tebo, Louisiana .A.) was Queen 0 the Carnival, and also Queen of two othe r important balls, Twelfth Night Revellers and Oberon . Jessie comes of a family long prominent in New Orleans, and one which has had many members of Pi Beta Phi, among them uleste Janvier, former Grand Treasurer of the Fraternity.

In addition, Mary Dart was Queen of Pro teus and also of Nereus, Susan Buck. Queen of Comus, one of the most coveted honors, and Helen Simpson, Queen of Mitheas. All these girls are debutantes of the season, and memben of Louisiana A chapter. An unusual honor came to two of our girls in the active college set, when Peggy Jones was Queen of Apollo, and Ninette Queen o f Harlequins-these last two balls are for the very young set.

Adjectives fail in trying to describe the gowns worn! Jessie janvier's was of imported gold cloth,

cut on princess lines Seven panels narrow at the waist, and broadening at the bottom over a wide Baring hoop, gave the skirt a morning glory effect. Those panels were heavily embroidered with rhine· stones and pearls in a rose design. held into folds of "sculptured drapery" by wide strajght bands of rhinestones and pearls, showing the filmy petticoat of jewel·embroidered gold lace beneath.

The gorgeous mantle was of gold doth, elaborately embroidered throughout with rhinestones and pearls, bordered with ermine The Baring Medici collar was of gold lace studded with rhinestones.

At midnight the King and Queen of the Carnival and their court went over to the Ball of Comus to join the king and queen there in the final and grandest march of the"ar.

This is the climax 0 the Carnival.

Peggy Jones wore pink tulle, Helen Simpson's gown was of silver heavily studded with rhinestones, with long beaded train, and her mantle was red velvet bordered with ermine. in keeping with the spirit of Christma5-her King was dressed as a gorgeous Santa Claus

Besides the Queens, many Pi Phi names appear in the list of maids of honor at the VulOUS ballsof these we have no pictures.

With the A ctives

«L PRESENTED with pleasure: the honor girls in Pi Beta Phi for the year 1936-1937. This does not include Phi Beta Kappas, who are given each year in N ovember.

«L PI BETA PHI had this year forty-six members of Mortar Board in the chapters reporting up to the date of our going to press-but twelve chapters on campuses where there are Mortar Board chapters were not heard from, so the total was probably larger. Of these ten were presidents, nine of whose pictures are on the following pages

CI. IN organizations similar to Mortar Board, twenty-eight members were reported There were 3 Tennessee A's , 3 Iowa r's, 2 Missouri r ' s in this group. Since there was overlapping between these girls and the Mortar Boards with the girls chosen for Who' s Who in America,/ Colleges, some of them will be found in the latter group. Among the Mortar Boards, note that Michigan B had five out of the twelve members on the campus; Illinois B-A had four, Colorado B, Montana A, and Oregon B had three each, • Alabama A , Iowa Z, Wyoming A, Washington B, Arizona A, two apiece.

CI. IN Who's Who in America,/ Colleges, a choice which is coming to mean a great deal, twenty-one girls were reported-three from New York A, 2 each from Virginia r and Kentucky A.

ETHEL HUESTON, Iowa Alpha

author of A Roof Over Their Heads

Just when we thought we had Ethel Hueston's books neatly classified as to type, up pops this prolific author with a Dovel very unlike all those preceding it. It makes one ponder the question, is there any type of stacy that :Mrs. Hueston cadI write?

A R oo f Over Their Heads is above all a readable, entertaining yarn. With the first word, it thrusts the reader among a group of real people-twelve brave characters with whom the reader laughs , cr ies a little per · haps, despairs and hopes . More important, however, is the underlying theme that presents an intelligent study of the depression and its victims, with a hint for the solution of these depression problems.

The story concerns twelve personalities, some young, some old, who are attempting to live together under one roof. Their consolation is that at least they have a roof over their heads. Endurance under its worm·eaten rafters is preferable to facing the uncertainty they fear If they go anywhere else to make a new start. The roof is treated as a symbol of the close confinement which threatens gradually to destroy their initiative, their normal integrity, their chance of future happiness and self-respect.

The time comes when something must blow that roof off or bring it crashing down, if these people are to be restored to themselves, shaken from lazy dependence on the government check, given new energy to be

up and doing Something does happen to it, most d rrunaticall y.

The character of " Mom," who might have been any brave mother struggling for her

ETHEL HUESTON, lowil Alph"

brood after the depression hit them, will live for the reader long after the covers of the book have been closed upon this-Mrs. Hueston's best writing.

DOROTHY McCLEARY, D.C. Alpha

author of Not for Heaven and Naked to Laughter

Dorothy McCleary, D .C. A (Mrs. Harry M. Hamilton) is a firm believer that the early bird catches the worm and last year the proverbial worm turned out to be $1,000 in cash and wide acclaim for her novel Not for H eallen, which won first prize in the Doubleday, Doran-Story Magazine $1,000 Prize Novel Contest.

"From four to six in the morning is the only time I live," she says. "There are too many distractions during the day. I wake automaticaUy at four o'c1ock without an

alarm clock . Somehow an alarm dock annoys me and makes me want to stay in bed, instead of getti n g me up. When I awake I go to the kitchen and make myself a big cup of tea and along with a slice of bread and butter I take it back to bed. Everything seems so n ice and quiet and cosy then and I

ca n write ." Thus it was that she turned out her manuscript which was deemed best by. no lesser judges than Martha Foley, editor of St ory Magazine, Lewis Gannett , critic on the New York Herald-Tribune and Harry E. Maule, M anaging Editor of Doubleday, Doran. Not for Heaven was also chosen by the Literary Guild for distribution among its members.

Those who read this prize.winning novel recognized a new writer of unusual ability. Her fresh approach and vigorous characterizations set a certain high standard for herself that readers did not forget when they opened her latest book Naked 10 LAughl". That she has not disappointed her critical friends is evident as soon as the first chapter had been read.

The story is centered about Ruby Shreve,

who was the milliner in a small town . Ruby was not the usual mousey sort, cringing behind protective pince- nez glasses. When an assistant was apprehended in one of her acts of kleptomania, Ruby caught her by the wrists In a grip that left red evidences of her strength. In the life that was lived in the shop and her quarters behind it this strength usually displayed itself in the directness of her character. But Ruby had her weakness, and it was a womanly desire for love .

When Herman cam e into h er life, it became impossible for her to keep him out of her mind. But this is no ordinary study of a woman in love, for Ruby had none of the feminine wiles Her direct approach to the complacent blond giant Herman was her only way of projecting herself . It left her naked to the laughter of her world, until a bitterly won wisdom came to her.

Thus runs the plot, but the mastery this Pi Phi author displays is revealed in her excellent chara cterizations. "As for 'plot' in a story or no vel , " she says, "it appears to me so wholly a matter of character-development that I never give it a thought . Characters, if watched long enough and attentively enough , will invariably respond by crea tin g their own plot- and to me that is all that one dares ask of them It's no fair taking your finger and moving a character like a chessman. No, fiction -writing might rather be compared to sitting in the engine of a train, stoking up for a journey over a railless track, with a headlight which sees not more than half an inch ahead But what a lovely tripwith characters whom one loves! "

Mi ss McCl eary attended George Washington University, where she was initiated into D .C . A . In various ways, she accumulated the eXferiences so valuable to an author. She acted In a New York City stock company, wrote for a newspaper syndicate and had a job as clerk in a Brooklyn department store Next to writing, her greatest interest is cooki ng (She is the autho r of "A Primer of Cooking ." ) In her free time , she continues her study of French , Italian, and Spanish . In private life, she is Mrs. Harry M. Hamilton and has an eight-year-old boy, Charles . She is a sister of Ethel McCleary Whitmore, also D C. A. + + +

Pi Phis in Winrupeg are sponsoring a most interesting kindergarten in that city, and gave a theatre benefit performance for it January 27. More about this project another time!

Go to Gatlinburg

A Travelog from a Pi Phi Family ·

THE MOTHER SPEAKS;

It is only honest to state that our objective was not Gatlinburg_ For years the fact that we who live in Massachusetts had elderly parents in Arkansas had given rise to periodic conversations like this. "We really must go to Little Rock this Summer." "Y", but even Father aod Mother say it is so hot that we could not stand it. Doo 't you remember Mother's letter last summer in wh ich sbe quoted the temperature 98 degrees, 99 degrees , and 102 degrees day after day? And at night she had to rub ice 00 the sheets and

wring out her night -gown in water before she put it on?" "But when can we go? " And so the matter dangled . We wanted to go, but the only months when a schoolmaster had time were reported as too hot for endurance . There is often no apparent reason for an important decision except inspiration. This one was possibly breathed in from the garden bed where I was poking about for crocus buds one sunny March morning. I suddenly said to myself, "We shall go to Arkansas this summer!" It was only a moment before

my enthusiasm had flown to B , digging at the other end of the border, and he had also acq uiesced .

But would the third member of the family go-Barbara, who would have only three weeks' vacation from the bookshopt where she (we both) worked, and who mig ht po ssibly have other plans than riding 3200 miles? At lun cheon , however, Barbara was an angel. I think she was remembering the day when she was e ighteen , when her parents quite suddenly decided they would take her to England for a year after h e r Comm encement at Mount Holyoke. She had seen this come true and it h ad helped her to realize th at a decision once made, preparatory events often fall in to line and make a pattern .

In the following weeks plans grew. Th e new Chevrolet was delivered; Grandfather and Grandmother in Little Rock wrote they h ad just added a cool spacious sleeping porch, and had arranged to add black Rosalie to their staff because she could fry chicken so much better than their m an Lindsay ; books of maps with routes marked and hotels and camps suggested , stuffed the mail box every morning; Pet er, th e cocker spaniel , was taken to a kennel. We locked the door and st arted.

Our firs t stop for the night was in Scarsdale, New York. The next mo rning the nephew with whom we stopped drove our car for us to the Holland Tunnel , and following his directions to keep to the Skyway Drive, we bowled rapidly along above the heavy traffic of New Jersey cities_

During most of this day we passed through rich Pennsylvania farming country where the barns have sta rtlin g decorations in bright colors and "porches" for the cattle. The road was bordered for miles with hollyhocks All roads should have them wherever possible.

A day late r the Blue Ridge Mountain s unfolded around us as we dimbed the new Skyline Drive above winding valleys. We could see lonely cab ins here and there far from roads and villages. What kind of life, we wondered, do people live so f a r away from what we call civ ilization? Most of these people, we were told, will have to mo ve out now to a town, because the building of thi s road makes this territory a p a rk land. " It will be a good thing, too, because the youngsters will have to go to sd100l now." Later on, in the Gre at Smokiest we were to see a similar t Barbara wh ile on t his nip, r ecciwd her appo intment to the Fo re ign D ivisio n of the Nati o nal Board of the y W C.A. and is in charge of iotetpretatioo and informat io n, with her office in N", Yo rk Cit y.

situa tion -great mountains, a National Park , and what it mea n t to the peopl e in th eir cab in s. We recalled th e lone ly hu ts in the mountains of Scotland where the shepherd a nd his family have only hill and sky a nd sheep for co mp any.

The next morning found us on our way to Kno xv ille, a nam e which meant onl y one thing to us. It was the point at which one turn s southeast for Gatlinburg, the town which from the beginning had loomed large in our plans. We had decided to make no detours for pleasure, how eve r, until our visit in Littl e Rock was over, and thus it was with real regret that we passed through Knoxvill e, making a straight line across Tennessee, through Nashville to Memphis. We drove through h ea t that sounds unbearable, but it did not harm nor delay us. At times the th ermometer reg istered 114 ° , and at the Andre w J ack so n, where we stopped in N as hville , the hotel clerk had wisely mi slaid hi s thermom eter. We we re see ing a n ew world, the world of great leve l st ret ches of co tton , with c razy bl ack shanties of negro es scattered through the field s. Never h av in g see n cotto n growing, I thought at fir st that the small pl ants we re pot atoes, a nd on ce when we stopped by the road I asked a boy in a field if hi s potatoes were doing well . "Potatoes! That ain't potatoes, that's the finest field of cotton this side the Mississ ippi! " As we drove through this country we beg an dimly to know something of the problem of th e tenant farmer and the sharecropper. But that is another story. In fa ct, all this preamble may seem to you "another story," but the Editor asked for the " How" of our journ ey She also asked for the "What."

After crossing the Mi ss issip pi and spendin g a week in Little Rock , we retraced our ro ad to Knoxville, and h ere is where B . comes in to tell what we saw and did at G at linburg.

THE FATHER SPEAKS

:

I h ave alw ays known that one's state of mind is closely associated with e nvironment At three o'clock on a t orrid July afternoon I was just impo ss ibl e. For two lon g days I had been cooped up in a sun-baked Chevrolet , lookin g at a lo ng stra ight ribbon of co nc rete th at runs from Memp his to Knoxville. I was beginning to fuss in the most approved style and inwardly wondered if I should ever see the last of Tennessee . Mildred and Barbara would have been perfectly justi-

fied in opening the door and rolling me down an embankment into a cotton field.

The last whine disappeared, however, by magic, after we crossed the river at Knoxville . In the dim distance we could see the bazy outlines of the Great Smokies . Forty miles and we would be at our journey's end. It was forty miles of sheer loveliness-past neat famo buildings set in the midst of level fields of grain, then into a wooded valley along a

CORN PATCH

curving road which followed a tumbling mountain stream. The gurgling water cooled and soothed us as we followed its winding (ourse.

As we crossed a bridge, Mildred spied a sign, LITTLE PIGEON RIVER . Then we knew that we were among friends. Little Pigeon has always meant but one thing in our family, the Settlement School. High up above us rose LeConte, wooded to the very to),; on either side of the road steep paths With rustic railings led to small cabins, and behind them row upon row of com grew on a forty-five degree hillside. It must have been planted by fairies! How human folk could do more than scramble up the steep incline seemed impossible.

When we passed through the stone gateway bearing the sign, "Pi Beta Phi Settlement School," and drew up before the Teachers' Cottage, it was four o'clock, but the sun had disappeared behind the frieodly mountains . So cool and invigorating was the air it might have been early morning . We were in a differeot world! On the porch was a group of women in conference, Pi Beta Phi's Settlement &hool Committee.

Ordinarily wheo one breaks in upon a committee meeting, he is put in his place promptly and properly with instructions to sit down and walt. Mrs. Weaver, director of the school, and the members of the National Committee are not ordinary people, however. When Mildred had introduced herself and family, we immediately felt that we belonged there, and even I , in the midst of such an august body, lost all my sbyness.

Any impression of the Settlement &bool would be mcomplete without a word of admiration for Mrs . Weaver and her work. We were aU impressed with her enthusiasm. At the end of a strenuous day she was eager to show us the school.

After she had made reservations for us in cabins owned and managed by a former student, we began our tour . In the kitchen of Stuart Cottage we met Mary Ellen McDona ld, who, with the help of two or three mountain gir l s, was prepa ring supper. The atmosphere of a fine old New England kitchen pervaded the place, and as I watched h e r preparing crisp salads and slicing cold ham, I was tempted to saunter around to the back door an hour later and ask if she didn't want me to work a bit on the woodpile.

I was impressed with the completeness of equipment. A separate building houses an Up-,to-date hospital where a resident nurse, aSSISted by the local doctor, cares for the health of the community . A modern school building faces a broad playing field where the Gatlinburg boy can Jearn the national game as well as his brother in the city. The largest barn we saw in this part of Tenn essee is the model building belonging to the school. Mountain boys are now learning to care for stock, the value of rotation of crops, and all the latest methods of agri culture. Tbe girls are instructed in dress making and cooking and are trained in all the amenities of home malcing, something was entirely lacking in the li ves of the former generation.

In the industrial building we found much material evidence of the school's work_ Here are the hand looms where native women

weave articles which would grace a Fifth Avenue shop window, scarves, neckties (I have two and wish I had more) . runners, CUftains, and bedspreads Miss Redding, the effi c ient weaving teacher, told us how the school supplies the material and pays the members of the weaving guild , ninety in number, when the articles are completed. We saw the supply room with compartments filled with hanks of yam, and looked with envious eyes at the piles of the finished Arrowcraft products We saw home-woven goods in several Gatlinburg shops, but they were all inferior in quality of workmanship and design.

In the Arrowcraft Shop, Mrs. Snow, the manager, had on display products of the loom and hand-made cherry chairs and tables The prices were reasonable, but our fund s not sufficient to satisfy our desires.

Supper at the New Mountain View Hotel made us yearn to stay on indefinitc::ly in this quiet valley . Good home-cooked food in abundance, se rved in family style, was a delightful change from meals in air-condition ed grill rooms of th e large cities. As I paid the bill at the desk , I saw a modest folder which described the hotel and quoted the rates, $3.50 per day American plan. If there is another hostel in the East which includes meals and room at such a price, I have yet to hear of it.

In the afternoon we caIled on Mollie Moore who Jives with hee mother and sister in a little cabin on the side of the Sevierville road. Mollie is a member of the Weavers' Guild, and showed us how she operated her 100m , which was se t up in the living room. While she worked , her mother, seventy ·five, told us of her struggle to bring up a family of six ; how she planted and cultivated the hillside piece of corn and often fell down while carrying the bags down the hiU . Now she had reached a peaceful old age and was apparently living comfortably in her cabin by the Little Pigeon . Both Mollie and her mother declared that they did not know what they would have done if the School had not been there to help in "lightening the load ."

THE DAUGHTER SPEAKS:

And here, with mention of a li g hter lo ad , the third member of the family lifts her pen .

From this present life in New York City , interwoven with the strange confusion of traffic and noise, skyscrapers and slums , I look back on Gatlinburg resting there so quietly in the valley by the Little Pigeon, with

the same affection whi ch I hold in my h eart for the small villages in the Italian Alps. Is it possible th a t we were there little over twenty-four hours? Long enough at any rate to sense the friendliness , the strength , and the permanency of this small community What do I remembe r? First. the c ool afternoon shadows cast by the sheltering mountain sides , the sound of the clear water of Little Pigeon bubbling over the rocks, p atch-work quilts, homespun , baskets and furniture dis· played so attractively in the Settlem ent School shop. looms worn and shiny resting on cabin porches, two of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen , and a friendly speech sound· ing quite stran ge to my New England ears trained to the "R" of Yankee origin .

I remember also the pleasant sensation I experienced when told about the Weavers' Guild. It was almost as if I were tasting history again. My knowledge of dates is scant, but all the same, mention of this Weavers' Guild took me ba ck somewhere around page 270 of my hi story schoolbook, back to the time when the crafts were di g nified , when a member of the craft guild was an artist and a person of influenc e in his c ommunity.

And here in the year 1936, in the mountains of Tennessee, we came upon a weavers' guild! The accomplishments of this group which has approximately 100 members are many . Not only does the Guild produce fabrics, but drama as well. A play bill or two , and enthusias tic rumors. were responsi. ble for our staying over in Gatlinburg to see "Lightening the Load," a play written and produced by the Guild members in the assembly hall at the Settlement School.

The day had been hot, not even the chill waters of Little Pigeon could change the burning noon-d ay. I thought with compassion of the farmers working in their cotton fiel ds along the Tenn essee highw ay and was grateful for the wooded glades of G atlinburg . Shortly after four o'clock the air began to change . The sun dropped behind the mountains. The birds beg an to sing, and a fresh breeze stirred the trees. There was an air of festivity in the vill age all that d ay, and after supper we started down the road , joining others along the way We wandered peacefully along the path, through the pasture und er the placid ga ze of the Settlement School cows, an d wai ted with others for the doors to open. Th e hall was tilled that evening Children took the front row seats. Fathers and mothers sat behind them With a certain sense of guilt,

I must admit that we three sat among the children , watching and listening with all the enthusiasm of the youngest among them

What is the theater without music in the p it ? The Gatlinburg Theater measlUed up In this respect, too . Four young men took their pla ce before the curtain . They plucked mountain tunes from their strings and sang songs wh ich set feet to tapping and bands to dapping

The hall became dark and the curtain rolled up on Gatlinburg in its early days Here was the jnterior of a cabin, with women gathered together for a sewing bee. There was the ever-present loom, a pot of dye over the fire, a spinning wheel, a girl carding wool by the fireplace, another rocking a baby in a cradle All of them were chatting about their work, the hardships and monotony of their life, recipes, and children. " Why, I brought up tweIve children under one pair of blankets," one old lady said into the gossip -laden air.

There on the stage at Gatlinburg was enacted the story of the village'S past years The rumor of a school being opened, the hint of superstition at people invading the valley.

Finally, we saw the village in the present day, and witoessed the work the Settlement School bad done in lightening the load.

It is an injustice that I should report this play so inadequately I would like to quote lines and quote characters All I can do here is to tell of the charm and simplicity and sincerity of the weavers who wrote and acted this play, and to tell of how it actually reflected the attitude of the people of the vil· lage toward the Pi Phi Settlement School.

The trip from Massachusetts to Arkansas and back was all too brief. We saw many cities, towns and people, but nothing has remained in my memory as dearly as Gatlin· burg . To my mind the school is unique, for the thorough way in which it has become a part of the village without superimposing out· side theories upon it. To the sociologist it is an ideal ruraJ project. To one interested in native industries it is a source of fine and artistic work. To one who likes people it is a friendly village . Need I say more? Only th i s, that whether you are an authentic Pi Phi or just a husband or a daughter of a Pi Phi, do visit this Settlement School in Gatlin · burg on Little Pigeon.

Gamma Phi Beta features the installation of their new chapter in London, Ontario. They have five Canadian chapters, the same number as Pi Beta Phi.

Delta Zeta, Delta Gamma, and Alpha Gamma Delta have letters and travel articles from their gad-about members which encircle the g lobe.

Delta Zeta is inaugurating a new service in their magazine. The "Ask Mr. Brashear" section offers vocational service and information to its members.

Gamma Phi Beta is asking for a canned goods shower and Camp Counselors for their summer camp for underprivileged children.

Delta Zeta's clinic and health program at Vest, Kentucky is somewhat along the line of our work at Gatlinburg.

Alpha Omicron Pi's To Drag m a has a plea for their frontier nursing service which is also in Kentucky.

Alpha Gamma Delta's summer camp for underprivileged children gives their alumnre members the feeling that they have something worth while to work for.

Alpha Chi Omega ' s Lyre describes a visit to the MacDowell colony of which they are patrons.

Is it spring or love or to what do we ascribe the many poems among the women's fraternity magazines? Of course the Lyre of Alpha Chi Omega has two pages In the Tridetll contributions of poetry are accepted at a space rate. "Metrical Moods" in Delta Zeta rates two pages. Alpha Gamma Delta especially honors her poetess, Jessie Lane Thomas, and Delta Gamma her Marguerite Wilkinson. Some verses are whimsical , some humorous, some aesthetic, and some just poems.

AN OPEN LETTER TO FRESHMEN

On What I W ould Do If I Were Re-eIllering College aJ a Freshman thi! Fall

(Compiled fr om letters from representative graduates of 1936.)

Department store windows and advertisements in the papers are shouting "Clothes for the college girl ," "Here is your campus ward · robe ." Younger friends are returning to col · lege and it is easy for me to form the illusion that I, too, am going to return to the university this fall Supposing I, the recent gradu · ate, could re-enter thi s year as a freshman havinJ( lived through four yea rs rich with experience--how would I begin afresh a college career?

First and most important I'd mind my books. That first year at college is apt to be enervating as far as mental habits are concerned already having a fair knowledge of most of the first year subjects, J would find that it would take but little ocertion to carry me along. But I would remember that habits so easily and pleasantly formed are not SO easily broken, SO J would make a practice of overlearning my subjects to give impetus to the next three years of harder study. I would allot a certain amount of time to study and maintain it as a routine. I would plan abead to be rtady for quizzes and examinations and try to keep my grades steady . Then I would try to have as many dasses in the morning as J could for J would be thinking more clearly then than I do after a warm lunch.

J would decide as soon as possible what field J wanted to specialize in and then saturate myself with those which were related to it, also finding room for some cui· tural studies to give me a general background, to make me well-rounded and to give me a taste and interest and incentive to pursue thecn farther after graduation.

J would remember that if J should receive my sheepskin for work that was inferior to my best , or if I failed to take advantage of the many opportunities offered by my univer· sity, J would be deliberately depriving of the interest which is due on the investment of the time and money which had been spent on my education.

J would J!uard my health. Without it noth· ing is consequential. I would eat nourishing food and be strict about getting at least eight hours of sleep each night, and when I did not get my allotted quota I would re·schedule my hours that week so that J might get an extra nap.

I would enter wholeheartedly inlo aclivilieJ, but not to the extent that I would all my energy rushing from one to another. I would choose two for which I found myself particu. larly litted, and having found those I would leam to be a good sport. Then I would have a hobby be it stamp collecting, glass animals, or photography. A hobby makes one more in· teresting . J will always remember Jane and her photography. She made a rea l art of her hobby and before she graduated she was earning money by taking pictures for the yearbook.

I would learn to make friends and be friendly. I would have many acquaintances

but cultivate only a few dose friends I would not make close friendships with one group or clique to the exdusion of all others . Because a girl is not dressed according to the latest fashion, or does not go about with the smart· est set is no reason why her friendship should be repulsed or avoided I would my friends, both men and women, for themnot for their worldly value. J would remember that friendships made in college are lifelong ones and I would prove myself worthy of them. I would not onfy be friendly with my contemporaries but I would be friendly towards my professors, too.

I would join a .Jororil1 for the love, understanding and dose friendship which J feel can be best fostered among those bound by lifelong bonds of sisterhood in a great organization. I would choose one, not because it gave the most and the smartest parties, but for the character and the congeniality of the girls.

As for my clothes, I would be neat, careful of my personal appearance and select becom· ing and appropriate clothes, nothing garish, loud or odd. Nor would I be extreme in the use of makeup and how I would avoid the freshman's flalt for crazy combinations!

And dater? Of course, but not too many and mostly on week·ends. Nor would I be serious with anyone until my senior year.

Then somewhere I would have a card I would look at every day on which would be written:

1. Be friendly.

2. Be enthusiastic.

3. Be a good sport.

4. Wear a bright smile .

5. Maintain a cheerful disposition.

6. Guard your tongue.

7. Cultivate the ability to be by yourself.

8. Be sincere and loyal.

9. Keep your mind clean, healthy, open and tolerant.

10. Be a willing worker.

and J would mentally check myself to see if I could score ten for that day. - Alpha Gamma Delta Quarterly

CONCERNING RE COMMENDATIONS

Some day we may have a little handbook that states the proper procedure in various sorority situations. Space and detail should be given to th e matter of recommendations in rushing season.

For example, a very charming girl who had attended a prominent and exclusive eastern school , acted as bridesmaid at a fashionable wedding in another city, and happened to remark to a Gamma Phi member that she was planning to attend a university in which there is a chapter of our organization. Th is member immediately despatched a letter, airmail and special , to inform the chapter of the entering student and recommending her highly; and the chapte r's reply to the letter contained various questions which were answered promptly . And from that day to this, the one who sent the recommendation has received no explanation of what happened. The girl's name was not in the pledge listperhaps she didn't qualify, perhaps she chose another group; but it is only fair that the onc who has the interest in the sorority and who has made the effort to connect with the chapte r in question receive some final word in rega rd to the result of the recommendation and of the rushing .-Cmcent of Gamma Phi Beta

ARE You AN EFFECTIVE ALUMNA?

B, EDNA MONCH PARKER, "T,.ian gle" Club Edit

o r

How many times have you been asked what belonging to a sorority has done for you? A sufficient number of times to make you think seriously of the answer, I'll wager. But how many of you have ever been asked what you can do for your sorority? Somehow we usually think of benefits due us rather than our obligations and relations to the groups of which we are members.

No doubt any alumna could easily make a list of the obvious responsibilities one ought to assume as a member of Sigma Kappa . Among them would be included;

1. Become a Life member of the sorority.

2. Take an active part in whatever alumna: organization is located near you .

3. Cooperate in Statewide Rushing Projects or at least send rushees' names to college chapters .

4. Keep the untral Office posted as to whereabouts so that the directory can be accurate.

5. Attend International and Regional Conventions whenever possible . Be and answer all sorority mall received .

Most of you are thinking. "Well, I do those things when I can." But how many of you make a real effort to support and cooperate with the organization of which you were so proud to be a coUege member?

That very word PROUD is the key to much of our alumnre laxity, somewhere between co llege days and the present, many alumn", have lost their pride in being Sigma Kappas. Look about you and discover what it is in your present surroundings that you work at most devotedly Is it a garden? Is it a charming home? Is it children? Why do you give so much thought and attention to it? I'll answer that for you-because you are proud of it You simply glow when someone compliments you on it. Do you have that same feeling about your sorority?

There may be alumnre who are in situations which make it absolutely impossible to fuWl the obligations mentioned above. Yet, even so that doesn't mean you can't do something for your sorority. Sever al weeks ago I attended a feminine b:idge rarty . During a luU ' In play, the subject 0 sorOritIes was mentioned. Without any boastfulness and with unusual subtlety the girl opposite me talked of the house to which she belonged

When I left the table it was with a feeling that her sorority was an interesting one of high standing She had made that impression possible.

In the same way each of you can do that for Sigma Kappa . Even if you can't do any of the six things listed above, you can give your organization by being a credit to it personally, by speakmg of it, by showing that you are proud of it and are glad to he a Sigma Kappa .-Sigma Kappa Triangle

REOPE FOR A THRJV1NG FRATERNITY

To each Alpha Sigma Tau chapter, add one good set of officers, including a good leader as a president, an accurate secretary. a careful treasurer, aad a good committee chairman. Mix thoroughly until smooth and evenly grained . Then add a generous amount of c ongeniality, a dash of wit, two ounces of courtesy and a small amount of ginger. Sweeten with equal amounts of cheerfulness , kindness , and charitable thoughts. Work well together, then add a handful each of pep , and patience for each member. Keep mixture at an even temperature; no steaming, boiling. or stewing necessary. When done, sprinkle generously with willingness and the product will he ready to serve and will grace any chapter of A. S T -The Anchol of Alpha Sigma Tau

FRJENDSHIP

B1 HEI.VEY ALLEN

Strong friendship begins with respect, traverses admiration, and ends in a trust and affection which cootioues to combine the first two. The process is $reatly accentuated if the friends in the makmg are both willing to coo fer and favors without conceiving them as obligations or weights on the scales of inJIuence which must ever be kept nicely readjusted and precisely balanced. A true friendship transcends this mere tit-for-tat game of influence played between urbane selfseeking acquaintances. It finds its equipoise in the discovery that both parties have a trust and belief in some eternal relationship beyond themselves. Then, no matter how differently they may approach that common center, they understand their actions and attitudes to be upon a mutually permanent ground.-The Magazine of Sigma Chi

COOPERATIVE HOUSES INCREASING

Student cooperative houses, says the A.A.U.W., are now coming into their own , sped on by the relentless pressure of financial need A study of student cooperative housing plans in 16 midwestern schools and colleges has just been made by H. C. Gregg, Iowa State College business manager. He found that in 15 institutions sponsoring women's cooperatives 763 women students saved themselves $86,818 in yearly living costs, and in .seven institutions sponsoring men's tives 1,096 students saved $117,892. Here is something for fraternity men to ponder.Pralernily Monlh + + +

Jay Purves, Illinois Z, of Des Plaines, Illinois , women's world table tennis doubles champion, a well known Illinois graduate, member of Pi Phi, competed in the international table tennis association tournament at the Rainbow Fronton, Chicago . She played before an afternoon and evening audience , being paired against Sandor Glancz. Only recently, Jay was in Europe competing in the championship meet. While in the University she participated in many Woman's Athletic Association events.

IN MEMORIAM

PI BETA PHIS who had the privilege of knowing or of working with Gail DeWolf know that no words are adequate to tell how great a loss came to the fraternity in her death.

Pi Beta. has never had an officer with greater ability, keener IOSlght, or deeper loyalty! Her personality too was unusual and she had a rare capacity for friendship. After almost four years of illness, she died February 5, foHowing operations for the removal of a blood clot and a brain tumor.

Gail DeWolf's service to her fraternity began with her initiation into Iowa Zeta, March 10, 1920, and never ceased. She held many important chapter offices including those of president and convention delegate. She was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and held A.B. and M.A. degrees from the University of Iowa. Her teaching pla ced her in the forefront of her profession. She was elected Zeta Provin ce President in 19 2 :5 and Grand Secretary in 1927 and she held both olli ces with great distinction. She refused re-election in 1931 in order to go abroad. Her service to Pi Beta Phi will long be evident in the constru ctive policies and methods which she helped establish.

In the hearts of those of us who held her dear, she still lives-forever beloved!

THE DEATH on January 30 of Melinda Berry Stuart, a most loyal, enthusiastic and beloved member of Nebraska B, initiated 1896, sister of Anne Stuart, former Grand Treasurer, has brought deepest grief to all Pi Phis.

Melinda faced fa cts fearlessly, and although she knew from the first the seriousness of her illness, she accepted it with rare courage.

Always active in Pi Phi, she served the fraternity in many ways, nationally as well as locally. She was for six years Treasurer of the Settlement S::.hool, and the Stuart cottage, a gift to the school, was only one instance of her interest in and generosity to the fraternity. She served the local chapter and club , in almost every capacity, and the present beautiful chapter house was built under her personal supervIsion . Many Nebraska Betas would not have been able to finish their schooling but for her aid. She had great love for and belief in the ideals of Pi Beta Phi. Her interests led her into v aried channels, and her going will be felt by many different groups of people. She was interested in various civic projects, and for many ye:.rs was on the executive committee of The County Humane Society, and was and served the state Y.W.c.A. in a s.m.lar capaCIty Her charity was well known, and she was always contributing bountifully of her strength and means to many sources of relief. She felt an interest and re·

not only locally, but on her extensive travels about the world. She was an active, working member of First Plymouth Congregational church, and a charter member of Tuesday Travel Club.

Her lovely borne she shared with others, and it was, and still is, "home" to many returning Pi Pbi5.

Her loyalty to family interest , her great love for her mother and her pride in her brother and sisters were outstanding. To them we extend Our deepest sympathy.

With ber fine loyalties and unselfish nature, Melinda's death is a deep loss to her chapter, her al= club and to her fraternity nationally.

Ca liforn ia.A chapter has been very fortunate , because in the past two lears it has succeeded in having its hou se remOdeled an redecorated. The fraternities and sororities at Stanford hive been housed generally in ramblinf' old· fashioned residences. and it has ooly been recent y that a move toward remodeling them has begun. n B • is pleased to have been able to be among the first: a year ago in the fall\ the dark interiors of the house were completely removea, several rooms changed, a nd a handsome new wing constructed. This past autumn the finishing t ouches of interior decontion were added. Mirrors, t ables, occlSional chairs, venetian blinds-all combine to present a delightfully simp le and tasteful interior.

The outstanding social event of the autumn quarter was a fonnal dance. ,siven with a dual pur{>'?sc; both IS a housewarming, and In honor of the new in it iates. It was a very great pleasure to be able to entertain in the house; previously the house had been too small for accommOdat· Ing our friends, and this autumn formal WII the first given at the house in many years. Initiation was held in the afternoon, and that evemng the new initiates re'Ceived as guests of honor; the dance was attended by a fine group of young people, and was a great success. The social schedu le for autumn quarter abo included, during the football season! several pre ' Bame buffet lun cheons. To these open houses I I visiting fflends and relatives are invited, and IT B 4>s visiting from other campuses are made e5pecialll welcome Pan he lenic re,ulations on the Stanford campus are extremely stt ct. and the only rush functions permitted dur o ing the fall term were three teas. These are held on thru successive days, an"tl serve to acquaint the bouse with the entire freshman dass. The teas were vtry successful, and ere of great aid in the foemation of adequate rushing lists. Panhellenic rules do permit, however, the rushing of transfers and upperclasswomen, and several luncheons and dinners were held to entertain them, before formal rush period bel:an.

It was an especial pleasure to California A to have iu Prov :nce President, Mrs. Ann McDonald D ' Auie, make the chapter I visit for a stay of two short days Not only are the girls fond of her , hut she much co n · structive advice. and man v hell?ful SuggestlOOS and ideas The chapter enjoyed another ViSit of extre:me importance. The Grand President of II B • made I yisi t to the Stan · ford campus during the latter part of March. The chapter

eagerly anticipated her arrival, and were very plea sed to have been thus honored. main chapter activity of w inter quarter at Stanford is of course Formal Rush Week. Rushing restrictions have become increasingly stricter, and at the same time, rushing functions have necessarilv become more simy "\ both in the number of dates, and lisa in the lack 0 e aboration in the entertainment itself. This year ' s rushing was very successfu l Immediately after/ledg in" an initiati on ceremony Wl$ held for Alice Hin Katherine La Gasa left school to return to her home in Tacoma, Washington on the lime day, .nd since that time Patricia Rehm\ pledge, of Los Angeles, has withdrawn from schoo l occause of poor health. California A chapter hopes to be: ab le to welcome them both back in the spring.

One of the new pledget recently was hostess to the entire chapter, at her residence in San Francisco. There was tea.dancing at the Hotd Sir Funcis Drake, and was served in het parents' suite. There has been one other recent social event; a tea was held at the house in honor of the new pledges, their mothers, and the i r friends. The II B .s of both California A and California B always cooperate to make Founders' Dar extremely successful. The two chapters met this yea r and participated in a pro· gram in honor of out beloved Founders. This was ex· tremel y pleasant, too, because it afforded an excellent opportuDlty for contact between the sister chapters.
