o THE Founders of Pi Beta Phi, this issue of the ARROW, coming out so close to our founding date, is lovingly dedi ca ted. Those Founders who have gone on have left to us a memory to be ever treasured, those still with us are to us a co nstant insp ir ation. To them we cling in loyalty and affection. We are proud of their lasting interest in and love for Pi Beta Phi, proud of their ever-young, ever happy spirit. May it be given to many of us to preserve QUf loyalty and our devotion to the Frate rnity through seventy-one years of active membership! What an example they are to us, young and not so young, active and alumnz aliJ..<::! -)- -)- +
Convention comes near again- will you be with us in Asheville ? Convention is yours to make what you will, a g reat experience in friendship, a lovely vacation, a time of hard work If you are in any way charged with respo nsibility for its success. Whatever your part in Convention, whether it is your first or your tenth, a great awaits you. What are you bringing to it?
We need your help in makin,g it a never to be forgotten time, one to be cherished among all the fine memories that life in a fraternity leaves with us. A revival of fraternity spirit should come from it - who can attend unmoved the model initiation, who can watch with dry eyes when Convention rises to greet the entrance of a Founder, who can stand with others from her chapter wh en the Grand President calls the roll of chapters at the banquet without a thrill of pride, not only in the thought of her own chapter, but in the strength of the bond w hi ch calls together so many women of charm and intellect? Even for a few moments to be so drawn out of our every day selves, so lifted to heights of inspiration, makes all our efforts worth while, makes us for a little time neighbors of the stars!
+ + +
As a fitting preparation for the experiences that await you, we give you in this issue the address made at the Alpha Chi Omega Convention last summer by Mary Bash, Washington At Associate Dean of Women at the University of Washington, the special guest of that occasion.
A fine example of Panhellenic spirit, that! And not the only time Alpha Chi Omega has shown such spirit. On March 19 the Editor of the ARROW was invited to be guest speaker at the Panhellenic luncheon held in Tucson Arizona, during the Pacific Province Convention of AX n. To speak that day to representatives of all the women's fraternities on the University of Arizona ca mpus was a pleasure and a pr ivil ege indeed. and to A X () the Editor extends again her gratitude for a truly wonderful experience, a manifestation of the real fellowship which Panhellenism should mean .
+ + +
A great fraternity has in these days come to be a gre:tt business concern as well. Perhaps you have not realized the size of that business. We have in our chapter houses property valued at more than $1,000,000, with furnishings in them worth more than $200,000. Think of the expense involved each year in the care and upkeep of all that real estate! Think of the market it affords for all sorts of household equipment, think of the quantity of food that must be bought each year for the girls who live In those houses- think too, of the families behind those girls , with all their myriad needs to be supplied - and you will see that we offer a lield for advertising that should be attractive to the national advertiser. For years efforts have been made to reach those advertisers, to conv in ce them that the fraternity magazines offer
a promising field for the advertiser, but only this year have we begun to see results . For the first time national advertising is coming into our pages. Fraternity Magazines , Associated , has begun to see results from its efforts to act as a general advertising agency for all th e fraternity magazines in combination, representing a circulation of something like 4 00 ,000 readers . Will you help us to keep what we have gained by showing those who advertise in our pages that we really read their advertisements and respond to them? Will you patronize our ad· vertisers? When you do so, will you mention the fact of your membership in n B <I> ?
Nothing pains the Editor quite so much as to have the ARROW come out late! Will you help us to have it out on time, you who are in any way responsible for sending in material ?

It is a pleasure to give editorial space to a fine release from the Committee on Interfraternity cooperation of the National Pannellenic Congress, whose chairman is Margaretta Orem Lindsay, A <1>.
"Interfraternity cooperation is essentially a state of mind, an enlightened The Greeks, in the i r maturity, have realized that beyond the chapter, beyond the indIvidual organization, looms the Greek letter system, which propounds a definite philosophy of living, which aims at a single objective: the development of women of strong character and a high degree of culture and ability.
"N.P.C. consists of twenty-three fraternities, so closely interrelated in aims and responsibilities that disaster to one is immediately reflected in the affairs of the others . The prosperity of each therefore becomes the concern of ail.
. 'Panhel1enism, based upon cooperation rather than upon competition, is not just a beautiful ideal; it is sound, practical sense. Competition in the acqwsition of new members and in the striving for awards is inevitable and what is more it is healthy, if, that competitive spirit does not degenerate into a selfish scramble for power and prestige to the detriment of the strength and prosperity of other competitors. Temporary triumph on the part of a few chapters, which leaves the others starving for membership, is a two-edged sword which eventuaJJy cuts the victor as well as the vanquished by bringing about a badly balan ced , urthealthy Panhellenic condition in which no one can long prosper
"A pledge day is only successful when each group has acquired suJlicient new members to carry on its affa irs with profit and pleasure; when no group has pledged so many members that the chapter has become so large as to defeat the real purpose of chapter life-the working out of social adjustments in a group small enough for intimacy and understanding . Indeed the overlarge chapter causes as much concern to f ratemity leaders as the undersized .
" Various forms of the quota system have been tried to bring some balance between the swollen and the shrunken chapter. Some have succeeded partially, others have failed , and it is the opinion of this commIttee that the difficulty can be corrected only by educating the Greeks to an intelligent awareness of their joint responsibility in the Panhellenic affairs of their campuses. Legislation has succttded in wiping out few evils , but common sense understanding of the impli cations of a problem is half the solution of that problem.
" Some campuses are fortunate in that their joint responsibility and participation in each other 's affairs is made tangible and clear by joint ownership of a Panhellenic house or something of the like . One group's failure to meet the rent can upset the budgets of all the others. Under such conditions it is not hard to convince the ch apters that Panhellenism is cooperative!
" On other campuses where the issue is not so dear-cut the interrelationship is just as deJinite . Each college Panbellenic may be likened to a building, with the foundation the
Greek letter system . Smug satisfaction that one's own wall is strong and fum. and complete indifference to the fact that some o f the other walls have serious cracks is not only blind selfishness, it is sheer stupidity . It takes more than one wall to hold up a roof but if one collapses it is likely to pull down the sound walls too.
" Each of the twe nty.th ree group s which make up N P C. has its strong chapte rs and its weak ones There is no chapter problem in anyone fraternity which ca n not be duplicated in each of the others . They just come in different places. If yours is 1 strong chapter, do not disdain to lend a helping hand to a st ru ggling one on your cam pus , or if yours is weak, do not hesItate, through false pride, to accept assistance. Remember that the position is probably reversed some place e lse. It may even be reversed within a college generation on yo u r own campus. Inte lli ge nt , cooperat ive Panhellenism will bring balance and stability and guarantee the security n ecessary for the Greek letter groups to serve their community and their members to the full."

There were twelve young girls This was l ong ago, But w e re those girls different from girls today? They w o re their crinolines quite correct, Their manners were s ta id a nd circumspect, They certainly never smoked or necked , But they studied and laughed and were sad and gay .
J ennie and Fannie and Libbie and Rose This one had beauty and that o ne had brains , This o ne would worry and fluster and fret , This one could easily get in a pet, Thi s was a blonde and this a brunette, This one was one of my Lady Disdains.
Thi s o ne co uld giggle at nothing at all, This-dreamed " Love " was the name f o r each fan cy, Oh, but you know them- these girls were not new , They were j ust girl s like me and like you, With most of the faults but some virtues, too, Ma rgaret and Clara and Ada and Nancy
They met in a r oom and they locked the door, And they smothered their giggles in the feather They w o uld form a dub They thought of a name, " But, Inez and Emma , what's Out Aim?" The serious one of the little group said.
Th e aim-the idea- the basic thing For this little club of long ago-Friendship--<ould an ideal be more high ? The twelve friends looked in each other's eye, That was the cord and the silken tie ; And the minutes passed , hushed and s low .
First twelve links in fr iendship 's chai n, Who lo ng ago glimpsed so ; Dear Founders, dear friend s, you have led the way And are you surprised at your friends t oday? Your thousands of frien ds who join to say, "God bless you, and Pi Beta Ph i "

ICANNOT tell you how much I appreciate, both for my sister and myself, your very warm welcome. Thank you for your cordiality and for this opportunity to talk with you. I
feel as if I were hallway in the position of hostess, too, because the northwest is my country, by birth and as home
The mountains make a fine setting for a co nvention. In such a setting I want to make a threefold wish for your convention. If you will think of one word which most characterizes mountains, I am sure it will be " strength." I wish for you a realization of your strength . In these days may you draw upon the strength of your past years to build solidly upon the foundation you already have, and may you find strength for the future in the cooperation and power that is in the womanhood of your membership.
Those who live in the mountains live in the midst of beauty, and I wish for you a realization, deeper than you have known be-
fore , of the beauty in your relationship as fraternity sisters. There is a third thing that always goes with mountains, and that is vis· ion . I wish for you the vision of understanding, and, before you leave this beautiful place, a vision of what is possible in future· accomplishment.
Dean Ri enow of Iowa says that "a Greekletter fraternity outside an educational institution is unthinkable." We are considering ourselves today as very much a part of the educat ion al system, and not a small part when we remember that there are 40,000 members of women 's Greek -letter fraternities on 155 campuses in the United States. Forty thousand women! What a force they can be, if they will!
This field of education in which we have so large an interest is an unlimited battleground. Every citizen, with or without background for his comments, feels called upon to point out what is wrong with the system, and it is subjected to more experiment, tampering, and general beating than almost any other phase of our organized life Such criticism and searching scrutiny, however, are but an indication of how much people care about what is taking place in the growing-up process of their young folks
I should like to think with you along a suggestive line of discussion, the /irst step of which is the statement that all educational systems are the outgrowth of the voluntary activities of individuals and (or) groups, and schools have incorporated into their formal programs much of such activity. We take so much for granted when we think of our schools that we fail to realize how very recent, historically, is the growth of our present formalized system of education. For instance, you cannot imagine a university without a department of sociology, and yet the first department of sociology was established at the University of Chicago, which, itself, great leader as it is , was only born in 1893. And how soon do campus customs, started perhaps but one year ago, become "traditions"! The very speed of change indicates how soon blind acceptance gives way to an attempt to fit the needs of the times . No age is static, no matter how much we try to settle things in a fixed form to lean on. Professor Messenger in our neighboring state of Idaho says
that "the educator' s perpetual relapse is a relapse into formalism . Nearly every reform has been a protest against the formal, but the protest has been followed by a new formal· ism as binding as its predecessor."
Let us sec some of the things that have come into our currirula in the last fifty years as the result of such protests. I have here a copy of the annual catalogue of Otterbein University for the year 1875 - my mother ' s class. Otterbein is a small church school in Ohio, but it was one of the pioneers in coeducation. We can never measure the debt we Owe the church schools-schools which with courage, conviction, and very limited resources have blazed the trails others have followed. The list of subjects offered at Otter. bein in 1875 amuses us now. There were a classical course, a scientific course, and- a ladies' course! All emphasized Latin, mathe· matics, science, and logic. The classical course added Greek, the scientific course specified required CQurses in Bible (doubtless as an antidote), and the ladies' course omitted one term of mathematics! Laboratory science was, of course, unkoown, but this open.minded notice appears elsewhere in the pamphlet: "The University is provided with philo. sophical and chemical apparatus for experimental illustration of the different depart· ments of science. Contributions to the cabinet are earnestly solicited from friends in different parts of the country." And this for· ward-looking announcement is on the same page: "Instruction is given at the expense of the student, in the modern languages, instrumental and vocal music, drawing, and oil painting."
Compare the offerings listed in the cata· logue of any university of today. How your grandparents would have been appalled at the thought of college credit being given for such things as The Speaking Voice; Play Acting; Community Organization; Posture ; (nterior Design; Theater Workshop; Needle· work; Play and Leisure Time; Costume Design; and-of all things- Tap and Character Dancing! Can we not trace many of our now "regular" subjects to the voluntary activities of groups? Where is the old "singing school"? Much more effectively handled through the music teaching which begins with the lowest grades, and finds public expression in chorus, glee club, and operetta. Dramatics, onCe entirely extracurricular, are now part of the academic program , and the same is true of debate. The activities of for -
mer departmental clubs have in la rge part been absorbed into the curriculum itself.
Women have been responsible for not a few of these incorporations and the de· velopment of practical interests. What tre· mendous growth has occurred in the fields of nursing education and home economics! In 1898 Mrs Ellen Richards said, "Ten years ago domestic science meant to most people lessons in cooking and sewing given to classes of poorer children, supported by charitable people to teach parents how to make pennies go as far as possible." In the early 1900's came the Lake 1>lac id Conference and the organization of what is now the National Home Economics Association with its emphasis on and support of the educational pro· gram in adequate curricula , research, and experiment.
Women's work for the education of women is a fascinating story. Mrs. Beard says that "in 1849 diplomas and advanced courses of study were things ' entirely outside the in· tellectual life of women." With what sturdy determination did women "break in" to higher education! There was Lucy Stone at Oberlin, in 1850, quite literally "striking" for a fair deal for the brave girls who took their courage in both hands and actually went to college. This is an excerpt from one of her letters home in her senior year. "It has been the custom for the ladies who were ap' pointed to write for the commencement to have their essays read by Professor Thome. Some of them thought ladies ought to have the privilege of reading for themselves. Accordingly, I prepared a petition to the faculty, and to the ladies' board, asking that we might do so; but the petition was reo jected, on the ground that it was improper for women to participate in public exerCises with men. I came at once to the conclusion that I would not write All of the ladies except one who were appointed to write essays resigned, as did two of the gentlemen. Others were appointed to fill their places, and these too refused to accept the conditions." And there was Antoinette Brown, our first woman preacher, denied her degree in theology at the time of her gradua. tion, who lived to see, during her long lifetime, the ordination of over 3,000 women preachers in this country! The Blackwell sisters (1849·52) pioneered for women in med· icine, and in 1854 founded that great East Side hospital, the New York Infirmary for Women and Children. Invasion of the field
of law came later, in 1869, with the admission of Mrs. Mansfield to the bar in Iowa. Women have without question established their intellectual ability. The relative scholastic sta ndings sheet published yearly by every university shows the men's ratings consistently lower than the women's. We have yet to see, howe ve r, what women's influen ce will be in education. No real "women 's educatio n" has yet been developed. Mrs. Shryock of K T( r says that "our greatest challenge is in the {act that we are women."
Among the contributions to the educational process made by the voluntary activity of "interest" groups, what has the sorority given? Let us see what different people say. First a re administrators-<ollege presidents, deans of men, deans of women. The presidents m ent ion primarily the good hom es provided by the fraternities. Dr . Wriston of Brown University says, "The educative process is not merely an intellectual process . ... Education is the growth of the individual , his respon se to every item in his total environment, not only within the institution but outside the institution as well . .. . Emotional respon sibility and aesthetic awareness are caught and not taught. Those are the things which, more than anything else, the student gets from his environment." And he declares that the coUeges are fifty years behind the fraternities in the matter of housing. Discipline is another phase of fraternity life credited with being more effective than the general discipline of the college. The opportunity whi ch the Fraternity gives in the midst of mass education for emphasis on individual development is another genuine contribut.ion.
Deans of men also emphasize the value of the good housing provided by the g roups, and ca ll attention to the fact that the g roups are easy to rea ch, and make rally ing points for student morale. Dean Rienow speaks especially of their contribution to a wellrounded personality. "The world has been ca lling for well-rounded, well balan ced men and wome n as well as learned men and women ; and it has been only recently that we have come fully to realize that these two objectives are not antagonisti c, with the result that every well-organized edu cational institution is comi ng to take a very active and deep interest in the living co nditi ons, social environment, and extra,cu rr icu lar activities of its students as a part of a co mplete educational prog ram ."
Deans of women, according to Mary Ali ce
Jones' int e restin g survey, give a fifty -two per cent vote for the helpful influen ce of the sorority on its members. The advantages listed are: the development of social charm; the brin g ing out of the individual by the group; the raising and stabilizing of personal standards; co ngenial friendships ; develop. ment of understanding; training in toleran ce and in the ability to get along with others; and an active participation in campus life .
Anoth e r g roup of people has something to say about what a sorority does to help educate a girl, but the comment is not made in so many words. What does an employer means when he specifies that he wants, prefa sorority girl? 1 believe he means that he know s he may expect ce rtain things from the training the sorority gi ves . First , he expects poise. He wants a girl who will be equal to any situa tion , and who ca n meet all sorts of people graciously and understandingly. Next , he expects tolerance He wants a girl who can get along with the other members of his staff, and can take correction when it is needed. And third, he expects a well-developed sense of responsibility. He wants a girl who will finish the job she has undertaken, and who will have a care for people as well as for things.
Lastly, what do the members themselves say of the sororities? Alumnre, who are perhaps in the best position to evaluate their experiences, will, I am sure , thank Mrs. Saunders of 6. r for her beautiful summary of the gifts of the Fraternity to its members . Let me give you briefly the high points of her fine editorial. " The Fraternity gives us ideals- ideals of friendship , truth, loyalty , gentility, and scholarship.... The Fraternity gives us a name . .. bringing us both prestige and responsibility . . . . The Fraternity gives us a family . We share one another's failures and triumphs, one another 's deepest sec rets of love and sorrow . The Fraternity g ives us a home . .. to defend and beautify . The Fraternity gives us friends in a strange city, for our fraternity co nnections are not ended with college but with life ." For the actives , I leave it to you , and you , and you, to say what your fraternity ha s meant in fun , in fellowship , in in· spi ration for your life .
You notice that no c ri ticisms are brought you . Y ou know your own mistakes and weak · nesses, and you will be do ing much heartsea rchin g these next few days in an endeavor to make better use of all the gifts which arc
yours . I agree so heartily with President Wriston in decrying the "defense attitude." If Qur emphasis is strong enough on the constructive side, the shoddy and the weak cannot stand. Darkness cannot withstand light.
According, then , to all these comments, the sorority has done some interesting things in the way of educational contributions. Its greatest work has of course been along the line of group methods, group control, group solidarity. It has been a sociological exreriment in living together ; a psychologica experiment in individual reactions; a philosophical experiment in practical idealism and character training. Experiments always pave the way for a wider use of the good results obtained, and that brings me to the logical conclusion of my first statement about the contributio n of voluntary groups to the whole educational process. When a satisfactory answer to any certain need has crystallized into the formality of a program, it becomes the function of the voluntary group to experiment in new .fields of human development. It takes courage to leave the known and venture into the unknown. We are not only creatu res of habit, but we are fearsome. Have you ever tried counting the number of times you use the word "afraid"? It is surprising. Nor is fear the only hindrance to growth. It is SO easy to settle down and not make the effort to get outside yourself, your own friends, your chapter. Just see yourself twenty years hence in the alumna who has "set" ("'jelled," somebody has expressed it) in the terms of her own college generation. Pathetic , isn 't she? Complacency and ingrowingness are the bindweeds of progress . We need consta ntly to voice Untermeyer's " Prayer "-"Lo rd , thy most pointed pleasure take, and stab my spirit broad awake '"
You are part of the educational system. Where does that system need venturing? What fields has it not explored productively? Where may new experiments be initiated by the voluntary group? May I suggest to you four challenging points for your considera· tion and discussion . Do college graduates, because they are college graduates, have a growing intellectual interest-a vital intellectual curiosity? What ca n guarantee a co ntinued alertness? In many years of "required read · ings" we have learned to use books as tools, and from early childhood we have expected entertainment from books, but how many of US know books as real companions? Can a
voluntary group teach its members anything about that? Can a voluntary group do any· th ing to help keep women college graduates a ware of what is going on in the world? or do I mean classes in current events! An energetic, sorhisticated lawyer once talked to a crowd 0 high school students at one of our conferences on the campus about what they should get out of college. He spoke lirst about the feeling for and use of our mother tongue and then he went on to say that the most important thing was to learn to feel at home in the world- the natural. as well as the civilized world-and he talked about the stars!
The second point is in regard to the use of leisure time: From Wickham Steed comes this thought.provoking statement: " Hltherto educatiofl ' and training have gone to fit human beings for work. In the future they may have to fit them for creative. ennobling, and unselJish play. By 'play' I mean healthy forms of mental and physical activity, of which the object is not material gain-the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, of art for the expression of beauty, of science for the conduct of truth, of skill in craftsmanship, of bodily litness to increase the joy of living. Unless my estimate of human nature is wrong, these things ca nnot be done by command in a super-discipline state without some loss of individual human worth. If they could be done by the voluntary coordi nation of effort, under the stimulus of high ideals in truly democratic commu nities , this loss might be avoided." What can the voluntary group do toward helping us realize the pre· c iousn ess of time? We know what it means to waste money, and destroy goods, but how lightly do we speak of "ki lling" time. Bridge, movies, is our standard? And this matter of drinking. I hope you will take hold of that question with both hands in this co nvention , and deal with it honestly . There is but one answer to its subtle and strangling hold.
W e have seen that people credit the so· rority with developing personality. How about balance? This is a tense age. There is a tremendous increase in the numbers of those needing hospitalization for nervous and mental disorders. Most of these are disturbances of emotion, not of intellect. What is it to reach emotional maturity? This generation has heard much more about selfexpression than about self·control. We have (Conlinlltd on page 294)
A Jeller from the Direct or of the T our My DEAR PI PHIS:
When Miss Onken asked me if I could go with some Pi Phis on a European trip this summer my first reaction was "Impossible" as I had refused to go with another group for what seemed to be good and sufficient reasons.
But the more I meditated on going with a crowd of Pi Phis the more the idea appealed to me and I wired to Miss Onken that I would go.
Since then there have been conferences and discussions galore until at long last we, the Ameri ca n Express Company and I, think that we can present to you an exceedingly attractive itinerary with most excellent accom modations at a very moderate cost.
MAY CARNEY MIDDLETON
The Company reports this summer's bookings to be the heaviest in their history and only a limited bloc is now held for us so you should decide as soon as possible if you care to join us .
Things being as they are in Europe it is uncertain when we may be ab le to go again so it does seem important to go now if it is at all possible.
We are planning such a lovely trip. We expect to see the things that every traveller talks about. We shall visit points of modern and ancient history: Geneva, Rome, Versailles. We shall see points of famous beauty: Interlaken , Lucerne, Amsterdam, Heidelberg and Venice. And we shall go frivolous and hunt up the newest fashions at the places where fashions are made and buy choice perfumes where they are distilled, and visit the playground of Europe in the Ri viera. Just fancy motoring through that lovely section!
To see these things with a congenial group. at a moderate price and with most (om · fortable surroundings is pretty fine , isn ' t it?
I think it is just grand.
And, since we bave our feet lifted and our heads turned toward travd, what do you think of joining about twenty of us for a two weeks' trip to Mexico, leaving Chicago and St Louis, May 8 ? This tour includes the most interesting points in the vi c inity of Mexico City and sounds most uluring. The folders are not ready y<l: but will be by the time you make inquiry about them The cost will be under $200 from Chica go and it does look like a good way to see our picturesque old neighbor. If you or your friend think this is what you would like, just let me know . Does it not seem that Pi Phis may spend an interesting and profitable time in the next few months?
Opportunity is knocking hard just now, so try to embrace her.
Yours cordially,
1938

How many of you are sociology majors? Perhaps you wi II lead in the disrussion of this last 9uestion. To what extent should the college expect a continued responsibility for commu nity welfare on the part of its gradu-

TH E little land of the Alps is a paradise, where scenery, invigorating climate and health springs combine to refresh and rejuvenate human bodies and minds. Sparkling streams and Lido -studded lakes are equally suited for day d reaming, fishing and aquatic froli cs. Flower strew n pastures invite to rest
a while next to Nature's heart, and mountains and heaven-a spi ring peaks hold out a promise to satisfy that urge for co nquest which pulsates within every human breast. Shining tennis courts and excellent golf links are the country's pride.

By THE time the May ARROW is in your hands the race to win the privilege of sendin.g a member to Convention will be over_ But the race to reach the $12,000 which we set as our goal by the 1 938 Convention will still be on, and there is yet an opportunity for every member of the fraternity to have a part in this contest.
II every Pi Phi-who reads this statement will feel-that the responsibility of completing the Endowment Fund rests upon her; if she will say to herself-" I am the Fraternity, and if I do not take this responsibility no one else will"; if she will anticipate-the satisfaction that will come to her to have a part in making for finer clubs and chapters and so a finer frat ernity ; then it must follow that she will hasten-to send a contribution, large or smail, in the next mail, and by so doing she will possess-that pleasant feeling of being a worthwhi Ie and vital part of a great organization, PI BETA PHI FRATERNIIT
On April 10 a little over half the $12,000 we hope for had reached Mrs Gregory The leaders in the contest on that date are recorded on the race track Since that time, however, the race has been won and two fortunate groups have appointed one member each to
attend Convention. By this time these happy Pi Phis are looking forward to the friends they will make at Convention, to the contacts they will have with Grand Council and other fraternity officers, to the thrill of visiting the Settlement School, and last but not least, to the store of fraternity inform at ion they will receive from Convention, all of which they will take back to their groups. Two other clubs and two other chapters are now planning what use they will make of the $50.00 and $25.00 they received for finishing in second and third places, respectively
CongratuJations to these six grours who won, and sincere appreciation to al clubs , chapters and individuals who cooperated so heartily in the endeavor to complete our Endowment Fund. The Fraternity will always be grateful to you for your part in making this Fund available for club and chapter devdopment.
To all Pi Phis, everywhere-if you have al ready given generous ly to this Fund, but still want to contribute a litt.le more, or if you have not yet sent in your bit- this is the last call for you to serve your fraternity by the Endowment Fund route before Convention. There is still time to send a contribution to Mrs Gregory which will be included in hec report to Convention. Wouldn ' t you like to be one who gave a final push to put the Endowment Fund over the top this year?

Narr
Ediled by MERCEDES BAKER ]ORGULESCO, MauarhllUIIJ A
This is the story of a prophet in her own country who won both honor and acclaim. Two Maryland towns near Washington, D .C., have always looked askance at textbooks by
local authors That is they always have until they thumbed through the attractive pages of Emilie Margaret White's Ein AIIJjlug in D ie Dellluhe S prarhe Here was no ordinary, uninteresting German text. Tossing aside the usual extra gauntlet of inspect ion required of local authors, these towns adopted it on sight. And many important cities did likewise. But suppose we let another prominent Pi Phi describe this unusual work.
Maud Esther McPherson, Ph D., who wrote the following review is a teacher of English
in the Western High School and a past president of District of Columbia A. As a member of the General Textbook Committee for high schools in the District of Columbia, she speaks with authority.
"Ein AlIsflug in Die Del/luhe Sprarhe by Emilie Margaret White, District of Columbia A, is in two volumes AnfangHchretle and ForlIchrelJe.
"A vital feature around which the texts are built is such presentation of material as makes possible the progressive development of ability to read German with ease and enjoyment without the process of translation. Throughout, the emphasis is placed on ideas within co ntext, to the intent that meaning be gained always through connotative significance rather than through mechanical dependence upon glossaries.
"So expertly is the material chosen that there is progress ive and climactic broadening of theme in the portrayal of Germany and its people, in the recital of its history and legends, in the presentation of its natur al beauties, its folk-lore of the past, its youth customs of today. The reading maintains an instructive, yet pleasing, balance between the old and the new, the factual and the imaginative, the humorous and the serious, including, as it does, narrativ e, letters , proverbs, quotations, and games.
"Of this wealth of carefully sifted material three aspects appeal to youth with singular power. A proverb which voices the wisdom and philosophy of the people heads each lesson as succinct expression of its underlying theme. The theme is then illustrated and illuminated by frequent songs of a people who accompany all their activities, particularly those of youth, by singing . Both words and musi c of many well-known folk melodies and of famous songs of later composition are given . In like manner to exemplify and inter-
pret lesson themes, there are utilized many of the poems and dramati c excerpts which have made German literature familiar and famous beyond the confines of its own land
"The same principle of exemplific ation of reading content is followed in the selection of maps and illustrations . The customary . familiar and hackneyed school -text photographs have in these volumes been replaced by modern ones. which not only vitalize the reading, but possess artistic merit of their own; as, for example, those of the interior of the Cologne Cathedral, of modern methods of transportation, of the out-of-door stage activities, of the Nibe/ungen stories and of the youth activities.
"Miss White' s texts have been adopted on sight by Washington and Boston ana are at present und e r consideration by a number of large cities.
"These volumes are compiled not only fcom the experience of a successful and enriching career as a teacher of German in the
Central High School , WashingtoD , D .C. , but also from understanding gained from three periods of travel aDd study spent in Germany, during one of which she had the honor of speaking at the Goethe tomb in Weimar.
" To come under the spell of Anfangsschrelle and Fort JC h,ette is to forsake appointed tasks under pressure of irresistible desire to furbish forth one's own a1j -but -forgotten German,"
Emilie Margaret White has served the Fraternity long and well She has been chapter Treasurer and President, President of the Alumnre Club, Gamma Provin ce Vive-President, Assistant to the Grand Vice-President and from 1926 to 19 29 Grand Vi ce -President. In her professional work she h as been VicePresident of the Ameri c an Association of Teachers of German, from 1935 to 1936 Vice -President of the Modern Language Association of the Middle States and Maryland , and from 1936 to 1937 President of the latter association.
If all mystery stories seem alike to you, you have a treat in sto re when you read Colver Harris' new book Murder in Amber. Just read the first three pages and see if you can put it down!
Timothy Fowler of the Manhattan Homicide Squad , returning from a vacation, sails from Shanghai with his vivacious wife. They, with the other characters of the book, are placed at the ship doctors table. A murder on the first day out, turns Timothy's vacation into a busman's holiday.
Strange events centering around a string of amber beads, which everyone wants to steal, come thick and fast. From the first murder (and there is a second o ne in store later on) until the last mysterious happening. the reader holds on tight while h e is whirled through one exciting chapter after another. The accusing linger is pointed in turn to each character seated around the table. The reader may be as sly as he likes in guessing " Who did it"? But we 'll wager it will be the surprise of his mystery-reading life when he finds out who th.e murderer was and just why a string of ordmary amber beads were not ordinary beads at all
Aside from the intricacies of plot, which Mrs Harris has handled especiaJly well, the
COLVER HARRIS
c haracters have been masterfully drawn. No words have been wasted in packiDg this book with thrills, suspense, humor and character interest.
Reviewing this book in the New York
Herald Tri bune , Will Cuppy said, "This is a smoothly written affair, containing no mean amount of neat chatter and miscellaneous gayety to offset the diabolical doings of a certain person. Surprises come thick and fast in the home stretch."
When we asked Mrs. Harris, who was Polly Anne Colver, Maryland A, to account for herself since her biography appeared in the ARROW three years ago, she wrote:
"After hve mystery novels in as many seasons , I'm beginning to feel like quite a prae· ticed murderer, not to say actually steeped in gore. With the current fashion , instituted by the Reverend and revered S. S. Van Dine, (the spiritual daddy of us all) of having multiple murders in each I've now killed off more characters than I like to think about_ I still think mystery stories are the most fun of any to write, as they seem to fall about half-way between farce and 'straight' stuff, and therefore it's possible to introduce all sorts of exaggerated type characters without spoiling a story_ There is also the fact that
once a mystery is more or less blocked out in outline, it can be written pretty much piecemeal- a distinct advantage when one must work, as I must, with at least half an eye forever cocked on household affairs.
"My entrancing. but nevertheless strenu· ous, two-year-old Jeremy has already learned that when the typewriter is out 'Mamma is busy writing books,' but still his attitude during the morning work·session cannot always be described as one of intelligent cooperation! Just what young Jeremy will think of the subject matter of 'Mamma's books' when he 's old enough to appreciate them, I cannot saybut perhaps the fact that his father is an associate editor of that perennial ch ild's favorite, The B ook of Kn owledge, will raise the average of parental endeavor sufficiently to maintain his respe ct. Meanwhile I co ntinue to invent diabolical murderers and hateful murderees and hosts of suitably innocent bystanders, and look hopefully toward the day when I manage to sell the first movie rights that will put us all on Easy Street."
Just let there be a prize offered by the New Jersey Federation of Women's Clubs for the best short story submitted, and Jane Toy Coolidge, North Carolina A, is sure to walk
off with it. For that is just what she did for two successive years. In 1936 and 1937 she won first award in the short story division of that organization's creative literature contest. Not content with these honors , Mrs. Coolidge won the prize (in ca sh no less) in a nation wide short story contest held by the Order of Bookfellows of Chicago_ This organization is an international association of readers and writers whose advisory board boasts no lesser personages than Henry Seidel Canby, Carl Van Doren , Irving Bacheller , J ames Branch Cabell and others.
When this author was at the University of North Carolina, two of her plays were produced and taken on tour by the Carolina Playmakers. One of these, A gatha, was later included in a volume of plays entitled Carolina Folk Comedies , published by Samuel French.
"For a number of years," she writes, "I have been occupied mainly in taking (are of a young family (I have a son who is twelve and a daughter six) but now that they are both in school I am finding more time to write. I am interested in short stories, particularly those that deal with the southern scene . Incidentally, it seems to me that the
South badly need s an interpreter who can show actuality that lies somewhere between Tobauo R oad and G one with the Wind /' And who knows but Mrs Coolidge will be the one to do it!
She spent the first twenty-five years of her life in Chapel Hill , North Carolina. On a trip to England she met her to-be husband,
Charles B Coolidge. Returning to the United States, she lived two years in Laramie, Wyoming. and si n ce 1928 has made her home in Merchantville, New Jersey She is actively interested in the Southern ew Jersey Alumn., Club and for the past two years has served as its president.
In the long list of distinguished Pi Phi relatives, Dr_ John Finch Barnhill deserves a prominent place
Dr. Barnhill, who is a former Professor of Otolaryngology in the Indiana University School of Medicine and formerly Chief of the Department of Head and Neck Surgery in the Indiana University Hosp ita ls , has recently had published such diversified books as DiJedJe of the Ear, Nose and Throat and Ha1(hil1g the Ameriran Eagle. The former is a schola rly text written by one of the country's greatest surgeons while the latter is an unusually well-written narrative of the American Revolution.
In Halching Ihe American Eagle, the author has dlOsen Philadelphi a as the locale, and the Revolution as the period of the story. He vividly depicts the lot of the noncombatants during the sombre days of the war and the life of the plain soldiers who did the real fighting.
Spies and counter-spies, Tory intrigues, thrilling sword-play, tragic battles-these make the tale told by young Philip Fenton, bashful lover, but a bold and devoted follower of Washington
In the telling there is all th e versimilitude of a diary, all the personal touch of one who was the next-door neighbor of Benjamin Franklin, and an eager follower of the doings
of Jefferson, the Adamses , Patri ck Hen ry , and the other men who signed the Declaration of In dependence, who wrought our Con. stitution, and who, in the early days, set the course of our country toward liberty.
To Stoney Point with Anthony Wayne, to the rescue of the southern colonies with General Green, to defeat , despair and to victory with Washington goes Philip Fenton, and over the same road, through the same forests, and into the thick of battle rides the reader with him.
After Dr. Barnhill retired from active practice in Indianapoli s ten years ago he started on the research for this novel and made a thorough study of records, towns, etc., by visiting these places many times. He drew the maps reproduced on the inside front and back cove rs
In praise of the book, the Washington, D.C., Post said, "The author's primary pur· pose is the presentation of an interesting accou nt of the events of the American Revolution, and the purpose has been admirably fulfilled."
This eminent surgeon and novelist is the uncle of Edna Barnhill Dorney, lndiana B, and a great uncle of Celeste Dorney, District of Columbia A. He is an honorary member of N l: N Medical Fraternity at Indilna University.
There is a typewriter in Albany, New York, busily clicking out a new book by another Pi Beta Phi. Audrey DeGraff, New York r, who writes under her own name and under the nom de pillme Elizabeth Carden Brown , is hard at work on another volume.
Mrs. DeGraff's literary biography is somewhat turned about, for her latest book The Room Downtown brought out under her pen name, was actually one of the first she wrote. Two other books appeared in 1936. Dance
dS They Desire, which bore her pen name, is the story of an underprivileged girl. The Game and the Candle, which was brought out under her own name, is the story of life in a sma ll town.
The author, who graduated from St. Lawrence University, married an alumnus of her own university. John T. DeGraff is an Albany lawyer and a member of A T O. They have three sons, John, Ri chard, and David.

Ediud by ] EFFRIES GREEN PACE, Virginia A
Greetings to everyone from your fillerinner. I have no claim to fame, was a charter member of Virginia A. when Miss Keller was Grand President , married early into the United States Navy and have been nothing but a wife, mother, and reluctant traveler ever since. However, the Settlement School exerts a co nsistent charm for me and that is why I happen to be writing this.
Convention time is nearly here and I hope you will be patient with me for reviewing a number of items which may interest the readers enough to get them to Asheville and incidently to Gatlinburg.
First, I want to introduce the members of the school staff, who will be most in evidence during that time . Mrs. Eunice Weaver, our small directress, who like the rest, begins her day at six A.M. , and keeps at her job of leavening the loaf until bed time. She meets dozens of problems of management each day, corresponds regularly with the committee and
maintains a cordial and interested contact with the members of the community as well as being a cheerful hostess for the visitors, who have crowded the school every day since the park has been open.
Mrs . Ethel Snow presides at Arrowcraft. Even larger crowds swarm into the sbop duc· ing the daylight hours and she must be deaf and dumb often, to avoid unpleasant response to some of the very rude and stupid behavior which exhibits itself before her. Our native tourists are not always "those charming people." She also sees that orders are turned over to the weaving director and that they are Shipped in time for the needs of the clubs ordering.
Mrs. Georgia Duffield keeps the hotel shop and I defy you not to remember her charm and graciousness.
Miss Winogene Redding is the weaving ,upervisor. She is particularly gifted with artistic sense and originality and provides aU
the patterns for her weavers, whose workmanship she checks afte r instruction in their homes. She h andles both the stock of raw material and manufactured a rticl es. She takes an active interest in the weavers as person-
A SET OF APPALACHIAN TWINS WITH "NURSE "
alities as head of the garden club movement and the monthly weavers' meetings. means a tremendous l ot to them all.
Mrs . M a rjorie Cha lm ers, the nurse, is constantly on the go, cari ng for the ai lments of the school personnel, as well as those of the commun ity-wh ich exte nds miles around into the hills and necessitates a daily schedule of medical clinic s at some far-distant concentration point.
Mr. Kin g, the principal of the high school, will be in evidence too, I am su re . You won't be able to miss him, as he is a big man , with a very cheerful smiling look that he apparently never loses, and the heartiest handshake in the world.
Look out, too, for our sweet little new bookkeeper, Frances Brown, M issouri r, who has achieved fine results at grasping her job in a few short months .
There are many more that I should like to mention but these are the only ones I am sure will be at the school in late June.
One of the most interesting experien ces about the Settlement Schoo l, is a trip with the nurse, which of course you will not be able to take. I shall never forget my first one. We drove in her car along dirt mountain roads
on the edge of nothing , even limping along up the rocky bed of a stream when the road failed us . At last our car could go no farther, so , getting out , we began a long climb up to a new li ttle mountain cabin . From its porch, one could look down the mountai n and through a cleft in the surrounding ridge, with beauty everywhere, sun shine , trees and Rowering wild shrubs and a stream trickli ng musi cally somewhere near.
In the house ho weve r, problems presented themselves . The patient was a little mother of seventeen with her second baby- the first having died of pneumonia. She was in bed cuddling the infant , which sin ce its birth three days before had had no care save that of a n eighbor's eight year old child A fire had to be built in the wood stove, water boiled and the baby washed with strong yellow kitchen soap. It was then rubbed with oil from the nurse's kit. its eyes atte nded to and it was readl to snooze away in comfort . No visible supply nor source of food was at hand and even the wood had to be pi cked up and chopped by the little gi rl in attendance. The husband and father had chosen that time to go away- just an itching foot as far as we could learn . Fortunately the nurse was ab le to arrange with a neighbor farther up the mountain to keep a weather eye out for the littl e family_
At another time I accompanied the nurse on the scheduled visit to the Big Rid ge School , which stood on the top of the mountain and served the slopes running in all directions. The program called for typhoid and diphtheria injections and vaccinations. The school hou se was a rough log cabin , standing in a clearing, where the g round about h ad been trodden bare by many restless and energetic little feet. The teacher was a lank s leepy mountaineer in his shirt sleeves. who instruction up to and including the eIghth grade The one room held crude wooden ben ches and tables and one small black board . The only modern note was the health records tacked on the wa ll and kept from d ay to day for the nurs ,. The children were studying from books not then on the required list of the state, for requirements had been ch anged two or three years before and red tape had as yet kept them from such remote districts. There were about thirty pupils- all ages and both sexes ; the boys clad in overalls and bare-footed ; the girls often beautiful with the wildrose complexio n they sometimes have in spite of hardships
and poor living- and wearing any odd -fitting faded or handed-down garment available. The children down to the smallest, we", all interested in having the inoculations, which had to be given for all three things at Ollce , for 35 soon as the bad weather set in .the school was isolated until sp rin g.
A stranger is a novelty among them and they felt too shy at first to do a nything but whisper cautiously to the nurse--but I W.\5 proud that they became accustomed to me before the visit was ovec and one little girl shyly gave me a reed basket she had made when her mother was making them for sale in the "burg."
We visited her family later on the way home and found her little sister ill. Her mother had just walked down to the nearest store-two miles down - and back, with crackers for the ailing one to use in milk J.S she cou ld retain no other food.
Father and mother were both young- but so worn and tired with the hard work of wresting a living from the few poor acres never meant for farming-raising corn, a few vegetables, and a little cotton for spinning . They made brooms and baskets in the bad weather to market in town on good days.
Please remember this and consider that condit ions in our early days at Gatlinburg were even more primitive--contrast OUf progressive and modern conditions at the present schoo l and forestall any feelings that we have
done our share fOf the school and are no longer needed . No Pi Phi's share is ever done . Now we have a whole new set of needs
In his add ress , at N I.C., Conference Chairman H. Maurice Darling, 6 K E, gave the minimum requirements of a welJconducted chapter, the objectives of the college of today as they relate to the Fraternity, and the program of the Fraternity in cowith the co llege in meeting those obJectwes.
The nine minimum requirements set up for the 2359 chapters in this country are: No member dropped for deficiency in scholar -

Mrs. F. M. Robinson, of 777 Briarcliff Road, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia, has been awarded the Child Welfare A ssociation Medal for the individual performing the outstanding work for chi ldren in Atlanta during the year .
The award was made known by the board of directors of the association, which covers Fulton and DeKalb Counties.
The award was made chiefly in recognition of Mrs. Robinson 's years of service as foun· der and life president of the Atlanta Child's Home. She began her work more than fifty years ago at the old Barclay Mission. In 1892 she was one of a group starting the Floren ce C rittenton Home, and in 1907 she founded the Atlanta Child's Home. In 1914 the home was moved to Angier Avenue and in 1923 Mrs. Robinson ' s husband gave forty acres of l a nd for the present location, 609 Hightower Ave. It is a Community Chest agency.

Florence Seville Berryman , District of Columbia A, B.A. 1924, cum laude, George Washington University, was presented by the Washington Alumn", Club as 1938 Honor Guest to the Panhellenic Association of the District of Columbia during the seventh annual luncheon meeting, Shoreham Hotel, February 19, Washington, D.C.
The District of Columbia Panhellenic is composed of delegates and alternates from 23 national women's fraternities representing some 400 colleges, meeting usually six times yearly for necessary business and climaxing with the luncheon meeting attended by some eight hundred Greek letter women. Although cooperation and friendship is the primary objective of the group several talking books for the blind were presented from the association to worthy groups in 1936, and a substantial gift was sent to the American Red Cross for flood relief in 1937.
Honor Guest selection from each of the 23 fraternities is awarded upon the basis of the most recent distinction won by the individual melnber of the alumna: clubs.
Florence Berryman became an art writer on the Washington POIt upon graduation, conti nuing this work for five months when she joined the staff of the American Federation of Arts and their official public at ion The American Magazine of Art.
One of her most outstanding contributions to early Americana appeared through the medium of Historical Exhibition of Portraits at "Virginia House" published in the Amed· can Federation magazine July 1929, accom· panied by pictures of Pocahontas, James I. Governor, William H. Cabell, President William Henry H arrison and others of the splen. did collection of Contemporary Portraits of Personages associated with the Colony and Commonwealth of Virginia between the years 1585 and 1830.
These portraits were lent by many associa· tions, institutions and private owners not only in the United States, but England and France, to be exhibited in Virginia House, the home of Alexander Welbourne Weddell , a reconstruction of the ancient Warwick Priory built 1565, which Mr Weddell saved from the house wreckers in 1925 and had shipped to Virginia. There it was rebuilt chiefly accord·
ing to the des,gn of the original Priory, with one wing reprOdu c ing a portion of Sulgrave Manor, the English ncme ot ".he ancestors of George Washington. This wing is used by the Virginia Historical Society which will eventually own the entire building.
Florence Berryman's writing has spread
through many facets of interest as staff writer for the American Federation of Arts incIud· ing not alone magazine stories but publicity for the organization, interpretative, bio· graphical and other kinds of material for their exhibitions sent out in mimeographed sheets and published in hundreds of newspapers, gallery catalogues and similar sources, tabulated by a New York clipping bureau for the American Federation files. She has writ· ten also for six years an annual review of painting in the United States for tbe American Year Book, a New York publi ca tion. "U ncle Sam"-a biography published December 1924 in the Daughters of the American Rev olution was followed in the next 9 years by 50 articles dealing with historical subjects, early American portraits and other fields of art includin g antiques, all published in this magazine under Florence Berryman's
n ame. The George Washington Calendar published monthly in 1932 and " War Posters as a Peace Hobby " appearing July 1935 seems to have attracted more than ordinary attention according to letters received by the editor.
As assistant to the art critic, Miss Lelia M echli n of the Washington Et ' efJing Slardaily n ewsp ape r , Floren ce has written numer· QUS articles on art, current exhibitions, and hi sto ri ca l subjects such as " Washington and Its Planning, " "Co ntemporary Photography ," and a rece nt long review of the Modern Salon of Art opened in the capitol.
The Voila R eview , the officia l monthly jo u rnal published under the Alexander Graham Bell Foundation since 1899 has publish ed some twelve of her articles such as " Art as Compensation for the Deafened ," "The Nose Knows ," and the present serial of her trip to England in 1937, besides misce llaneous subjects of special appea l for educators, physi cians , socia l workers, the hard of hearing and their friends.
But the little monograph "Early Ameri can Bookplates " written and published in 1925 has remained to date the most individual of a ll her co ntributions to Americana Not
more than an hour's readin g but capable of endless possibilities of education with repro · ductions from the originals (through the co urtesy of the Daughters of the Ameri ca n Revolution) of book plates of William Penn, 1703, Willi am Byrd , Edward Shippen, John Adams and many others.
The reprodu ctions of the book plates are further enhanced by pen portraits , striking likenesses of the owners of the bookplates, the same size as the accompanying plates, drawn by Mr. Clifford K. Berryman, dean of the ca rtoon artists, originator of the Theodore Roosevelt "Teddy Bear" and for over forty years a daily event cartooner for the Washington Evening Slar , and father of Florence Berryman .
With the foretold background of achievement Florence Berryman received and ac· cept ed the invitation from the Sesquicentennial Constitution Commission, to write a 6,000 word article on Bookplates of the Signers of the Constitution, for in clusion in the official Sesquicentennial Book published by and under the direction of Honorable Sol Bloom and his associate directors by Act of the United States Congress.
An unusual p leasure came to Cleo Millikan H all, In diana r, when her two daughters, Fran ces Louise and Vida Ruth Hall were
initiated into her own chapter the same night - October 14 , 1937. Has this h appened to anyone else in the Fraternity?

Mrs . Helen Cook Zwick . Missouri A . <I> B K graduate of 1913 has recently been c hosen as the only woman and one of a group of four to represent the State of Missouri on the National Republican Policy Committee . This is a group chosen by the National Republ ica n Committee and headed by Dr . Glenn Frank to determine the futuce policy of the party It is indicative that this committee has been made up only of leaders in varying educational and economic fields.
This honor is by no means the first to be earned by Mrs . Zwi c k who is a native Missourian, born in St. Louis . She began her career while in college where she majored in history and political science. As an officer in her chapter and as a campus figure, she showed her capabi lity for important positions even then. She helped to organize the first g lee club at the University of Mis · SOUrl .
Since her g radu at ion, Mrs. Zwick has taken an active interest in educational as well as political affairs. She has always had time, though, to devote some of her interests to n B cfJ alumme functions. She has been president of the St. Joseph, Missouri , Run eie Club and has served as a membe ... of its board for years. This club is one of the most influential from the standpo int of literary and cu ltural achievements. Mrs. Zwick has been president, at one time or another, of most of the women's clubs in St. Joseph besides being active in church affairs. She has been a member of the Y .W.c.,., Board and has constantly worked with the young people of her own commu nity and of the state.
Among Mrs . Zwick's most outstanding achievements besides being c hosen on the Republi ca n Policy Committee ue as follows: In 1928, she was delegate at large to the Republican National Convention in Kansas City, Missouri; from 1932-1936 she was the first woman to take her place as a member of the Board of Curators of the University of Missouri ; in 1937, she was p ...esented the award for meritorious achievement as the
most outstanding woman graduate of the University of Missouri; and recently she was made a member of the St . Joseph , Missouri , Health Board as the Republi can representative of a bi-partisan board.
Mrs . Zwick is recognized locally and nat ionally as an astute politi c ian with a mind for practic al politics . As a result she is con -
suited not only by the women interested in politics, but by the men as well. She organized a woman's Republ ican Club which is the oldest in the State of Missouri to have continuous life and has been president of the Women's Republ ica n Club of Buchanan Cou nty for many years.
Besides being prominent and active in social, educational and political fields , Mrs . Zwick has made two other contributions to Pi Phi, which although mentioned last are by no means least important. They are Helen and Mary Gale Zwi ck, her daughters , both Pi Phis attending Stanford University at the present time .
A pttlurt of/his hO Ule a p pearJ o n Jhe co t'e r 0/ Ih iI i u u .
Completion of a n enlarged a nd remodeled hou se, accepted in October by the chapter al umnre, has given the c h apte r at BloomIngton , Indiana, a new home that will accommodate fifty g irl s.
The house, of Southern colon ial architecture, was enlarged under the direction of Burns and J ames, In dianapo li s arc hitects, by H ughes Brothers of Bloomington. It was deco rated by Miss Dorothy H elmer of L. S. Ayres and Company of In dianapolis
It combines the latest accepted necessities for student group living . The left wing ground Roor includes living room , alcove, stairway an d student director 's suite , guest rooms , and hospital isolation facilities. In a sub -basement is a large game room and
quarters for a houseman and his wife and (or two maids. The seco nd floor conta in s a smoking lounge, student rooms, a room for tow n gi rl s to be used as a lo u nge with in -adoor beds , l aundry and pressing rooms and the third floor contains a dormitory and a corne r bed room with a double decker bed These rooms are furni shed in maple .
Frenc h doors lead from the liVing room to a stone porch. Three steps from th e livin g room g ive access to a high cei lin ged reception h all. R ecessed windows flank the co lon ial doorway. The stairway is of spira l des ig n and in the hall , right and left , a re the tele· phone booths and the men's coat room and l avatory .
Flanking the recept ion hall on the left is the large dining room . In the dining room is a marble fireplace pane led to the ce il ing a nd a triple window overlooking the campus. Double doors from the hall and d inin g room make a large study and trophy room avai lable as extra space for social fun ctions.
Bac k of the study is a fireproof, incl osed sta irway leadi n g to the third floor. M ode rn kitchen space, serva nt coat room s and two pa nt ries are to the rear .
Win e and sil ve r blue, the soror ity co lors , are used in the decorat ions on the first fl oor . The main entran ce f rom the four -co lumn ed portico reveals the free -hanging sta ir case whi ch is the outstanding feature of the h a ll. The formal drapery treatment on the landing w in dow offers a pleasing cont rast of wineco lored sati n against a classic patterned blue background pa p er abo ve the dado
The fireplace grouping in the living room opposite the hall entrance blends harmoniously with the background of wine -colored ca rr ti ng, soft gray-blue wa lls , and eggshe ll an go ld damask draperies In this room there is a warm and friendly atmosphere due to the convenient group ing of the Georgian furniture throughout the room , with a Jess formal lounging al cove off the living room .
In the dining room th e re is a refreshing appearance of orderliness . This room was treated effectively and predominantly in white, with uncarpeted herringbone floors , white dado, the white background co loni al
paper and all white draperies trimmed with wine fringe. The dining room furniture is Chippendale with ladder-back chairs and is desIgned to accommodate sixty girls.
Feminine charm is expressed in the furnishings of the bedrooms. The maple furniture lends a warm and cozy glow through the room and is enhanced by the use of light and airy ruflled curtains. The third floor bedroom dormer windows are treated with cretonne draw curtains. An interesting feature of the rooms is the conve nient two-way study desks.
The simpl icity and livable charm expressed throughout the entire house is in perfect harmony with the early Ameri can architecture.
A spacious chapter room in the sub-basement of the right wing has been dedicated and used to its best advantage.
