Diamond Jubilee

Like many another cherisbed pIan, our ideas for a proper celebration of the nth anniver· .ary of II B 4> had to go 00 • tide of war into the land of thinss forBOtten and forsworn. At one time, we even hoped to give you an album of pictures of all chapter houses and &Iso of the girls of ail chapters, with the thought of showing what the Fraternity really is on its Diamond Birthday-but the rising costs of printing and ""graving made that entirely impossible. Yet somehow we wanted to make the Founders live again before our members, so we give you two articles, one by Dr. Grier of Monmouth College, the other a very personal account of what the Founders were like when they were in college, done in the &lways charming style of the National Historian. We hope that through their word. you will be taken back for an hour to those day., and we wish too that each Pi Phi who read. them could place behind them the background of the restored Holt House, scene of that first organization meeting which gave us our Founding date.

Amid ail the welter of work and worry of today, the thought comes back again and again-Pi Phi is 75 years old ! Through two wars the Fratemity has lived and prospered, among trials and attendant changes. How much of strength and comfort in sorrowful days of hardship II B 4> has meant to her members, we cannot estimate. We do know, however, that for each of US there must be one steady and unchanging phase of life to steady our thoughts, more than ever now, in what may be the darkest days of the most cruel war in world history. It is for those who are privileged to wear the Arrow to work to maintain the strength of the Fraternity, as a thank offering for our Founders who made such an organization possible. Only so will II B 4> carry on far beyond this time, living and growing through this war; only so may she reach her hundredth anniversary, and even BO beyond. Of ail of us new tasks are being demanded; new obligations must be met; they can only be met by assuming them in addition to the old ones that are worthy, such as the maintenance of our national projects, never by abandoning the old to take on the untried new.

Throughout the country, Founders' Day celebrations have been simpler than usual, because of the war; yet more than ever before, they came from the hearts of all Pi Phis everywhere.

Agnes Spring Resigns

To Pi Phis everywhere, and especi&lly to the ARRow, Agnes Wright Spring has meant much. She bas served as ARRow Editor and member of Grand Counal; she wrote our "History" during her term of office as National Historian; she became a member of the Settlement &hool Committee and editor of the "News from Little Pigeon" section, and wrote the fine artide on the school which was featured in the D ecember ARRow, and which is to be reprinted in monograph form, for issuance to the pledges of II B 4> each year. The Editor cannot too strongly, too warmly, express what Mrs. Spring's work bas meant to her. It is therefore with genuine regret that announcement is made that ill health has caused the resignation of Mrs. Spring. She will be greatly missed!

The ARRow is fortunate indeed in having as her successor Mildred Odell Sale, North Dakota A, of Dallas, T<xas. Mrs. Sale has always been active in Pi Phi work, and has attended Conventions. She has been a national officer in I A I, musical fraternity, first as editor of Pan Pipes, now as national secretary. She was last fali elected president of the 3H

National Association of Professional Fraternities. Her qualifications for membership in the Settlement School Committee could not be better, and she may be sure of a warm welcome by the Fraternity.

Fellowship for 1942·43

Grand Council announces the award of the II B <I> Fellowship for Graduate Study for next year to Marion Webster, Ontario BJ brilliant medical student and nne member of II B <1>. She will do graduate work in medicine, and should work with distinction for herself and for the Fraternity and with ultimate benefit for humanity in her now greatly-needed field.

Advice is a dreadful thing to give unsought, aod the Editor makes it a rule never to do that! But here is advice which has been asked for by many girls in the active chapters, in letters aod in person, with the question, " What sha ll we do about the war? Shall we stay in co llege? Shall we get war jobs? How can we best help?"

This year there has started in a small wayan exodus from the colleges which might easily become a serious matter and topple over the whole structure of education in ruins which would take a generation to rebuild , and do more harm to the civilization of our country thao all the bombs of Hitler or the Japanese can ever do. Education is woven into the very fabric of our good American way of life, which we are fighting to preserve. Should we then throwaway its advaotages ?

To these questio ns our answer is an emphatic "No!" Stay in coIlege if it is in any way possible. Make the most of the chance for that training which will be so greatly needed in the years to come after the war, when the present college generation must play an active part in restori ng our national life to a normal level and in healing the inevitable scars which war must leave behind it. Much work for the war effort is possible in college, with all the first aid training, knitting, and sewing that must be done, and in these things the girls in Pi Phi chapters are already leaders on many campuses; but this war work must not be done at a sacrifice of the serious co llege study that is after all the reason for going to college at all. We must avoid the danger of emerging from war with lowered standards of culture and education, or with lessened appreciation for the truly fine things which should make up the background for well-planned living.

Stay in COllege!

Announcement:

Grand Counci l announces that the recent vote of the active chapters of the fraternity, required by the constitution, resulted in a decision to postpone Convention of 1942, by more than the re9uired two thirds majority. There will therefore be no Convention this summer. Tabulation of the vote will be sent to chapters desiring it on application to Central Office .

ON APRIL 28, 19-42, Pi Beta Phi passed her 75th milestone!

Last year, Mrs. Libbey wrote to the Editor, "I hope to attend the 75th Anniversary Convent ion," and how sod it is that she and Mrs. Soule could not live to see that great day Yet how sad they would have been to find that after all these years, that anniversary fell in a time of notional trial such as the United States and Canada h ve never seen before Pi Beta Phi was founded at the close of one great war, when the country was strugglin9 with the gre .. t problem of Reconstruction: Pi Beta Phi has lived through two great wars, with ever increasing strength; Pi Beta Phi will live through this greatest of all wars too, will see a victory, will help in the restorat ion of civilization itself when the peace is made .

When the one hundredth anniversary of Pi Beta Phi comes, surely it will be in a time of finer living, bett.r things for all, perhaps in II time when mankind may have come: to a more general living of the ideels for which the great college fraternities have stood through all the years.

The Background

The Early Days o(Pi Phi

By DR JAM ES H GRIER, Prerident of Monmouth College and Son of Ada Bruen Grier, Founder

SEVENTY-FIVE years ago the I.e. Sorosis was new 00 the Monmo uth campus. The oollege itself was in its fourteenth year. The four war years had depleted its ranks. Two hundred thirty·two men from the fac· ulty and student body joined the Union Iurny. At ooe period there were but fortyeight men left on the campus. There was

some discussion of suspending college activities for the duration. It was at that time President Wallace made the decision which for eight decades has heen classic among Monmouth people: " Whether in peace or war, we must educate,"

The aftermath of the war brought to Monmouth campus both meo and women

older than the average college student-meo who bad served in the army and young womeo who bad remained on the fanns dur o ing the time their brothers were away from home . Consequently in the years 1866 and '67 it was a more mature and seriously

was the college campus, occupying at that time ten acres . About and beyond this c ampus the city of Monmouth expanded . The membership of the student body in the middle 60's was largely rural. There were three hundred sixty·seven of them aU told ,

minded student body than at most times. Among these young people Pi Phi had its be· ginning.

Monmouth was a typical midwestern town of about 4,500 people, built from a survey· or's plan about a central square, the streets runrung north and south and the avenues east and west. On three sides of the town were opec park spaces, and on the east side

of whom half were taking collegiate work and half preparatory . They carne mostly from western Illinois and eastern Iowa, a few from a greater distance-only one name I lind from Chicago. Some of these young men had the ministry in mind, and my mother used to recall how many of them, either from far · seeing economy or spiritual insight belitting their calling, arrived on the Monmouth cam-

pus with long tailed coats of clerical cut. Like many others, my mother had taught rural school foe two years before coming to college . The school is still sta nding , known as the Brook schoo l , located in Hend erson County, Illinois, where the Bruen and Brook farms meet. Both names are familiar to the members of Pi Phi.

The Monmouth catalogue of 1867 is a brochure of thirty-six pages, offering courses leading to a bachelor"s degree in six branches: Languages, including Hebrew, Hi story, Mathematics, Natural Scie nce, Phi· losophy, and R eligion. We note that "candi· dates for admission to the college must furnish satisfactory evidence by examination or otherwise of their proficiency in the studies of the academic department. They will be particularly exami ned in reading, spelling, and penmanship." The co llege library con· tained "over 1,000 volumes," and the tuition was $30.00 per year. There were no dormitories of any kind.

The stude nts lived where they cou ld find lodging, and boarded in dubs or private hom es. The "Holt House ," which has now become enshr in ed by Pi Phi national, was one of these homes open to college stude nt s.

The college activities ce nt ered largely about the literacy societies. Here were stro ng partisan divisions, and the enthusiasm of the college year gathered about the intersociety co nt ests. I have before me the program for the third annual co nt est between the A.B.L. Society (Amat eurs des Belles Lettres Soci· ety) and the Aletheorian Society, held March 26, 1869. I have before me also the program of th e contest between the same two organi. zations in the year 1865. This was the first one held. At this time Nannie Black , a Pi Phi founder , represented the Aletheorian Society in the essay contest and had for her sub· ject, "Labor." Ada Bruen represented the A.B.L. Society in 1869 in the essay contest, having for her subject "The Inner Word:· Among themes of that day we note these: " Death, the Peacemaker," "The Battlefield ," "Everyday Heroes." The great war was still in their memories.

Among recollections of mother's conversations regarding early college days are two . I

expect they can both be found in the early records of the Pi Phi sorority. One regarded a time in the early fall of ' 67 when a group of independent girls decided they could and would travel the streets of Monmouth by night unattended. The streets at that time were badly lighted, if lighted at all, with board sidewalks in some places. These young women carr ied lanterns. Needless to say, they attracted attention . This was the group later organized into the I.e. Sorosis. A year later, or thereabouts, after the formation of a second chapter at Mount Pleasant, Iowa , mother tells of a "national" convention held at Oquawka. My recollection is that the sis· ter chapte r at Iowa Wesleyan failed to ap· pear! However, the ride to Oquawka, sixteen miles from Monmouth on the Mississippi River, and the "convention" itself, were long remembered events.

There are no literacy societies on the Monmouth campus today . Many organizationsacademic, musical, dramati c, athletic- have crowded them aside. The student wo rld has enlarged. From the campus of seve nty .five years ago these young people have moved out to contacts with neighboring institutions of similar purpose. The standards, ideals, and energies of the old literary societies now express themselves in intercollegiate debate, musi c, and oratory. And a parallel change has taken place in the social organization of three·quarters of a century ago, when a few you ng women of college mind-sometimes serious, sometimes frivolous-gathered in congenia l mood and laid down those basic principles of friendship and mutual helpfulness which have been handed down to our day and which are given expression on the campuses of very many universities and colleges .

I do not know that our mothers in 1867 ever dreamed of an organization which would some day expand from coast to coast and beyond the borders northward to the Dominion of Canada, but the strength , vitality, and wholesomeness of the modern generation bear abundant testimony to the health and vigor of the "grain of mustard seed" when ce it has sprung.

pencil drawings which she made while in college. A great niece who bears ber great aunt's given name, Frances Bryson, has in her possession a key winding gold watch, very thin and beautifully engraved, which was given to Fannie Thomson just before she entered Monmouth College.

Rosa Moore was considered quite a beauty according to her college mates. Her brown hair was curly, her eyes were blue, and her comp lexion fair. Jennie Horne Turnbull' s eyes were deep blue and her hair brown and her complexion very fair. Jennie Nicol had dark auburn hair and dark eyes. Inez Smith Soule was the only exception to the blue eyes rule, her eyes being hazel, neither green nor brown. The many Pi Phis who met Fanni e Whitenack Libbey at Conventions could see in her the young girl she was at the time of Founding, with twinkling blue eyes, ligbt hair, and fair complexion.

What was in the hearts and minds of these young girls we know through our beritage of n B if>? It is an inspiring experience to read the letters written by Founders which are in the national archives and to see their expressions of love for one another . In 1922 Margaret Campbell signed a letter to Emma Brownlee Kilgore, "Your friend, Margaret E Campbell" and added under her signature. "Maggie." Jennie Horne Turnbull was Fannie Thomson 's best friend when they were in school together and Mrs Tumbull wrote Sarah Pomeroy Rugg many years after her college days in speaking of Fannie Thomson, "We were very fond of each other:' Shortly before her death wbich occurred fifty-seven years after the Founding of n if>, Ada Bruen Grier wrote Libbie Brook Gaddis, "Libbie, you are the best friend I ever had ."

In Jennie Nicol, Emma Brownlee Kilgore had a friend who was, as Mrs . Kilgore once wrote Mary Bartol Theiss, "-faithful even to the risk of her life. " This was after the death of Mrs. Kilgore's father from cholera and when Mrs. Kilgore was a victim of the same disease and Jennie Nicol went to her home when everyone else was afraid to do so and acted as nurse for her college friend as regular nurses were not available. It was natural then that Mrs. Kilgore sbould appreciate so much the idea of a special memorial in honor of Jennie Ni co l at the Settlement

School. In a letter to Agnes Wright Spring written on January 22, 1922, Mrs. Kilgore said, ·'Your letter gives me pleasure that the Jennie Nicol Memorial Hospital has somewhat of a chance to materialize. It will be of great use and much needed. I wisb you could bave known Jennie Nicol's character. All of us founders were proud of her abil· ity."

All the Founders who were living at the time of the establishment of the Settlement School took a deep interest in the school's development just as Jennie Horne Turnbull said of Ada Bruen Grier soon after Mrs Grier" s death, "Coming to Philadelphia she was soon identified with the alumnre of II B if>. Her health not being rugged sbe was se ldom permitted to attend the meetings, but her interest never lagged, especially in the work of the Settlement Schoof, eagerly looking foeward to the coming of the ARRow that she might learn what was being done at Gatlinburg."

Now the house in Monmouth , Illinois in which the organization of n B <I> was completed has been restored and one room upstairs set aside as a memorial room to these twelve girls who made their dream a reality. In co ntemplating a visit to this house one is reminded of Katherine Mansfield 's imaginary visit with the Bronte sisters. Miss Mansfield was a great admirer of the Bcootes and studied them and their works until she felt that they were among her best friends. Somewhere in her writings Miss Mansfield said that she was passing a house in London one day when it suddenly came to ber that this was the kind of house in which the Brontes would have lived if they had hap pened to live in London. In her mind she went up the walk of this house, knocked on the door, and Charlotte Bronte answered her knock and invited her to come in, but cau· tioned her in a low voice, "Emily's sleeping. "

A IT B <I> when entering the Holt House today can imagine the date is April 28, 1867 , and can feel a young girl, Emma Brownlee, the first president of n B <1>, take her by the hand and can hear her say, ·'Let's go on upstair's to Adas and Libbie 's room. Jennie Nicol and Fannie Thomson couldn't come, but the others are up there. And we have just finished writing the Constitution!"

Dean Lloyd Speaks

The add,uI by Ali" Crocker Uoyd , Dean of Women, Uniflerlily of Michigan, which opened Ih e DeanI' Conference, San FranciJco, February 17, 1942

IN THE last mon.th of the year 194 1, Americans have been drawn together in a common purpose with a need for co-operative effort and group effectiv eness which h as never been equalled. Our very existence depends on our being able to work tog,.,her in groups . The Army, the Navy, the civilian effort, must all be effectiv e group effo rt, and must be inspired and by a n under-

ship. It is our duty to help these young peo. pIe to a new psychology, both for their sakes since they are floundering, and foe the sake of our country whose leaders they will soon be. And we must ask ourselves what we have given the young of the nation in the past twenty years since the last war, in training and in teaching, that will endow them with the moral and physical courage which they now need . There have been a few modern trends in training and in teaching which have not tended to "condition" them, as our friends the psychologists say, to the terrific demands now made upon them .

We hear members of our own generation complaining that we no longer have security. We don't know what is going to happen to our incomes or to our professional lives . But there is a deeper inserurity in the modem picture which young people with their lives before them feel even more keenly than our own settled generation. In three very im · portant, pretty fundamental, phases of life young people are shaken and insecure. One is in their economic life, ODe is in their social or moral life, and one is in their religious life.

The economic insecurity is a phase of their problem that we cannot do much to a1levi· ate. We can only do our best to make them face it squarely and adventurously, with courage, and without the "Why did this have to happen to me?" psychology. Too many of them look at their troubles too personally . standing of what we are doing. The too Katherine Mansfield said, "People today are tragic proof of the failure to understand and simply cllfJed by what I call the Perlonal. to work together is found in the Roberts What is happening to Me. Look at Me. This report of the appalling disaster at Pearl Hae- is what bas been done to M •. It's just as bor. Deans and advisers in schools, colleges, though you tcied to run and all the while an and universities have a unique opportunity enormous black serpent fastened on to you." in their relationship to young people to help This egoism frightens me as it did Katherine in giving them inSIght and unaerstanding of Mansfield when I realize the enormity of the situation in which they are now involved the sacrifice of personal int erests in the presand to help in integratiing and vitalizing the ent situation, and I think parents and teachwu effort. eIS and personnel workers and psychologists

It is our busi- a young person's eyes on himself, on his or ness to be their friend, guIde, and counselor. her own personal needs, his self developBeau.. of our association with many groups ment, his caeeer.

group ; the family group or the s tale grou p or bumaoity at large

Our youog college studen ts are especi all y apt to have the pttsonal approach since their privileged existence has encouraged the attitude and 'hey do not realize in their youthful egoism that a very small part of society has ever had economic .security. Nevertheless I am sympatheti c with our young college men and women because they are perhaps less ready to face this professional and economi c insecurity than other Jess fortunate young people .

I do not need to tell this audience how hard it is for young people to face the present uncertainties as to whether they can finish college, whether they will be drafted , whether the profession they have choseo is the right one in a world at war or a world after war, whether they can get married . These things come up every day in a college community and young people have a precarious economic future and may be thwarted in following out their life plan.

But that is not the only insecurity . Something else happened after the last war beside the economic chaos. There was social chaos. The code of social custom and usage that I was brought up to believe in has been lit erally demolished. The rigid moral code , the strict taboo about drinking, especially as far as women and minors were concerned , even the highminded attitude about honesty (and to my mind this last is the most serious). have vanished from the social pi cture . Young people have been confused especially on two great issues which they must now face, by the very teachings of our gen · eration .

The first one has been partly clarified by the attack on Pearl Harbor and all the events of December 7 and thereafter . It was the big question of whether to fight. After the last war, we debunked war in our conversation, our teaching, our best sellers, and while these students were growing up they were taught that war was wrong, that anything was better than to fight_ They grew to maturity in a decade of pacifism, and suddenly two years ago the same older group began to urge them to be ready to fight If they were confused and a little resentful we cannot blame them. Moreover, December 7 was a shock to us , but the shock to us was as nothing compared with the surprise for the young. Anyone who attempted in the pa st

few years '0 tell 'he young peopl e what was co min g wa s labelled war monger, gloom d ispense r, propagandist. The daogerous te ndency to call even the straight forward t ruth p ro paga n da is something this age ha., to worry about. The war to the young was not only the calamity which war always is. but it was completely unexpected. For some year s they have emulated the proverbial os· trich and with their heads in the sand of apathy and self -d e lusion have not heard the rumblings of war . The explosion on December 7 shook them out of this attitude , but they a re still bewildered. Their reaction n e ve rlheic:.s has been rather thrilling . On another very fundamental issue, there has been and still is great confusion. For many generations there has been a very definite Christian moral code concerning the re la tio ns of the sexes . This age reveres scien ce and in the twenties the teachings of a man named Freud were widely publkizcd and popularized , and he taught that restraint in these matters was the root of many evils and much mental disturbance. It is the kind of teaching that had a profound effect on a disillusioned, cynical post war generation . One has only to listen to the questions which the students ask in their Marriage Courses, the country wide demand for which indicated to my mind their confusio n about that most vital social and natural relationship. Eighty per cent of their questions concern pre-marital relationships and usually are asked with a wish to have pretty extensive freedom ju s tified . This is a tremendous problem, fundamental because of its social and its emotional significance. Now the psychiatrists are turning their backs on Freud to some extent and admit again that will-power and self- control have great value in the mental pi cture . If people of bygone generations have been upset mentally and emotio nally by too great control and repression, our young people have been as badly disturbed by overindulgence and lack of se lf-control in these matters.

Another problem is that Our young people - brought up by us, remember- are many of them hazy in thei r ideas of what is honest practi ce, as witness the problem which high sc hools aod colleges face with cheating, cribbin g, and plagiarism

Honesty involves a great deaL It is not only an attitude toward education, but is esse ntially a fundamental attitude toward

life itself, and invo lves in a powerful sense our relations wit h other people. I ha ve b ee n for some sixteen years now associated wit h co ll ege students on the ca mpu s of a large state univer s ity. I frequently disc uss the que st ion of hone sty in coJlege work w it h stude nt s. I have yet to rai se the question with any group of stude nt s who did n ot admit that ch eat ing was a formidable problem ran ging all t h e way I rom copying eac h other's work and carry in g "po ni es" to class, to hirin g the work done by anothe r stude n t o r by an outsider. Reports crop up from time to t ime that cleve r stude nt s ca n earn a large pr oportion of th eir expe n ses, not ju st by tutori ng, whic h is a leg itima te means i f pro pe rly hand led , but by doing the written work of other stude nts. The cleve r ones are seldom d is::o vere d-occ3s ionally only, now that classes are so large and imp e r so:lal, some of the stupider ones are caug ht. Re · cent ly at a d inn er ta lk I he ard two stude nt s say that dleatin g on 3 ce r ta in cam pus was rar e. beca use the professors were stric t a nd "you cou ldn ' t get away wit h it." That the danger o f be in g ca ug h t at it was the deterrent, and n ot a n att itu de abhorring di s honesty, did n ot seem stra n ge to my yo u n g dinner companions.

There seem to be two aspects 01 the problem, two fund amental attitudes that are wrong. On e is t h e attitude of th e young peop le who come to college I rom hom e and prepa ra tory sc ho o l w ith hazy idea s of honesty; the other is the attitude of the colleges and universitie s in th e presentat :on of hi g h er educa tion to t h e young peop le.

Let us d iscuss t h e first problem. Fo r obviow r easo ns, th e co ll eges a nd u n ive r siti es are not re spo nsib le for the la x attitude toward h onesty which a rriv es at their door s when poorly trai ned stude n ts corne. Tra inin g in honesty need s to begi n at a very early age. Same fo r tu n ate in d iv idua ls are bo rn with an honest attitude. Others are fortu n ate e nough to h ave pare nts who rea lize th e importan ce of maintaining an honest approa ch to chi ldish probl ems, and of making honesty an im po rt ant issue. I think I must be lon g to this seco nd group of fortunates. I remember being led by the hand to the home o f our was h woman to apologize for a li e I h ad told her. I do not remember the li e or the washwoman, but the lesso n made a n indeli · ble impression. One did n ol lell lies Some people now would condemn this p·mish ·

ment lor a shy chi ld. P robab ly the reason why I remembe r the ep isode so vivid ly is beca use it was such an ordeal fo r me. But 1 think the lesso n was worth it.

Too many ch il dren learn early in life that they can get th ei , way by lyin g or ca n escape t h e co n sequ e n ces of their own acts by lyin g, a nd sad d e r st ill, some of them catc h their p arent s in small , o r l a rg e, deceptio n s. a:-.d learn from the o lder ge n e ration that a dis· honest a ttitud e is n othi n g unu sual. Our pub li c grade sc hool s and ou r large publi cly supported in stit ution s of h ig h er learn in g are tea ching childr e n that come from every kind 01 b ac k g rou nd The burden 01 rebuking dishonesty a nd of tea Chin g a st r a ightforwa r d outlook toward work and p lay is forced upon the sc hool s wheth er th e y like it or not. What are the sc hool s a n d univer s iti es doing about it ?

Th e moral i ssue is the fundamental on e. No sys te m in sc h oo l o r univer sity is goi n g to make hon est young people out of di sh onest ones, but it seems to me that the present educat ion a l system sets up certain emphases and ce rtain devices which, because they st ress th e wrong thing, present a blurred picture of wh at education rea ll y is , and foster dis· honesty rather than cor recti ng i t.

In the fir st place, we h ave instituted a system of hour s a nd honor points which reduces the co ll ege degree to a score card in t he regi strar' s offi ce. To wor k for the degree is th e thing, not to d eve lop the trained and di sc iplin ed mind and to find the wonders of education, a nd to get t h e degree the score ca rd mu st s h ow o n e hundred and twenty h o urs a nd a C average. D's and E's in some courses ca n be offset by A ' s and 8 's in oth · ers Wh at th is all has to do with educatio n is be coming more a nd mor e obsc ure, but the tendencr is all in the wrong directio n , and th e fetIsh of the degree is more and more emphasized. Sc hools of Edu cat ion, the departmen ts t h at s h ou ld be especially co nce rne d a t the trend, are demandi ng ce rtifi cation o n a degree basis and are even enteri n g po lit ics to demand higher degre es as a bas is for adva nceme n t. Teaching and personnel work are all in the picture 1 had a very nice g irl in my office who cheerfully told me that she and he, brother at Purdue had worked out a fine system_ She wrote his Engli sh themes fo r him a n d h e did h e r scie n ce p a· pe r . An other poor littl e Jewi sh g irl from a very limited background gav e as her de-

rensc when she turned in as original a paragfl1ph copied from a textbook, that she didn't copy from the text book, it was the girl wbo did ber lesson for ber who did it . The student is for more conscious of the necessity of getting grades in a course than he is of the riches of the mind which his university can offer him. Too seldom is the university presented to him as the light by which he can see the wonders of science, th e lessons of history, the beauty of great literature, the excitement of learning another Ian · guage, or the power that is given when we learn to use our own great language with effect.

It is the problem of numbers in our schools and colleges that has brought us to this p ass. The wonder is that with s uch a system th e re are so many young J":"ple in a ll our sc hools who do see the light, who would not dream of compromising with the truth , who are too interested in their subject s not to want to make all the di scoveries themselves , who want to be edu cated and will get the degree as a reward for work done, but not as an end in itself . 117 e make a mistake when we help to obscure the issue by stressing the degree . Honesty has won a special significan ce-dishonesty is the breeding ground for Quislings and war opportunists. Finally , the greatest insecurity of all is in religion. There has been a tremendous rebellion on the part of youth against organized religion I think it is understandable, but I think it is tragic for any age to be without a faith Or a clearly thought out philosophy of life . I explain it in large mea sure by the spirit of the age, whi ch is an age of science. Young people have respect for science and sc ience teaches them that nothing must be taken on laith At least that is what they think scien ce teaches Actually all the great men of scien ce teach the opposite . Those who have made great discoveries in the scientific world have had great laith and imagination- Newton with hi s law of gravity, Copernicus with his theory of the round world revolving around the sun , Darwin with his theory of evolution , and to be more modern, Pasteur, the founder of a new scien ce-bacteriology- which has revolutionized the science and practice of medicine, and Mme. Curie with her theory of radioactivity All of the great in sciene< have had faith and imagination and have revealed something new and wonderful in the uni-

versa I plan There is nothiog in great science that denies religion - and what our youth does not see is that even if they canoot accept the supernatunl , that which cannnt be proved, there still remains the great ethical teaching wbich is at the basis 01 all religion

Again I think it is partly our responsibility that they don ' t know anything about the great literature which is a wonderlul part of the Christian heritage. One of tbe professors of English at Michigan said in despair one day that he could not refer in bis classes to the story of the Good Samaritan or the story of the Prodigal Son and have any idea that more than half of the class knew what he was talking about. How can our young people be educated or do any thinking on religion il they do not know th e basis of their own civilization ?

We cannot build a fine morale for ourselves and our young people out 01 muddled , confused thinking on vital issues, out of self -pity and sell-indulgen ce, out of dishonesty, out of a lax moral code and a feeble philosophy of life. We all know that Hitler could not have wrecked the foundations of European civilization if these same termites had not already weakened the structure. Here in America we have too many of the same weaknesses. The teachers and advisers have a uniqu e chance to exterminate and then to rebuild

The disarming of the past twenty-five years in America and Europe has not been on Iy in the implements of war; it has been a disarming of the spirit ; the spirit which has been our strength and heritage in past generations. The force of Christianity had to lail before Hitler could have his chance to debauch the spirit of his people and the people of Europe ; the fine spirit 01 democra cy had to be weakened by corrupt politics, selfish intere s ts, tbe failure of the privileged groups, among them the college trained groups , to feel their responsibility toward society before our American democracy could be so threatened. I am not a disciple 01 the socalled Oxford movement, in fact there is much that I do not like about it, but one phrase wbich they have coined has great force They talk of Moral Re-armament. It is that that we need as well as the building of ships and tanks and airplanes, and it is in that sphere that the profession we represent here today has its greatest challenge .

We must bave the ships and tanks and

airplanes, but we must a lso have character, and by charac te r I mean now what it has a lways meant, co urage and honesty and un · se lfishn ess and com passion . It is these things that educat io n shou ld train and f oster and it ha s not done so in the period s ince the last war, a period first of g reat prosperity and self-indulgence, follow ed by the disillusioning thirti es , a mood of frustration, cynicism , almost of despair. It has been easy to say cynically as the Engli s hman did during World War I , "The history of the human rac e is a di screditable episode in the life history of one of the most in s ignificant of the planets ." Cynicism is apt to be clever, sometimes almost amusing, but I remember vividly h ea rin g my father say that it always represented weakness. It is a defeated attitude and we do not want it now . We want to give our young people faith in themselves, beli e f in the nobility of whi ch they are capab le, a willingness to sacrifice for a great cause. The hi sto ry of the human race iJ t e rrible, but it is also wonderfu l , a magnificent tale. I will match the cyn ici sm with a simple se nt e n ce from one of the psalms, " I should lItterly have fainted but that I be -

l ieve veri ly to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of t he living ."

In the struggle that is ahead I believe that the question of whether we have c haracter will determine wh e ther we are ignominously defeated or wh et he r we have a great re-birth of the Christian democ racy in which we all be li eve. I choose to believe in the latter, but it will not co me true unle ss we make it happen.

Is it not rather moving that the gospe l for the day in many churches for the second Sunday in Advent which thi s year fell on December 7 was the nobl e passage from St. Luke:

"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon and in the stars; and uJ;>On the earth distress of nations with perplexity ; the sea and the waves roaring; men 's hearts failing them for fear , and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth; for the powers of heaven shall be shaken."

Many generations have suffered and been re -born-ours is not the first to suffer bitterly. Our redemption through sacrifice will come in the s trength of the spirit. What is edu ca tion if it doe s not build that strength?

Ideal s

Banqllet Sfm rh by Mary M orrill, Ohi o B, Beta Pr o vin ce Conl"enre , April 2 5, 1941

IT WASN'T very long ago that one of QUI pledges came to me and said, "Molly, we talk about the ideals of 11 B <1>, we discuss standards, and so on , but what really are the ideals t' That question was arresting . The pledges have their pledge books which tell them about the standards, projects, history of n B <1>; they have been pledged and have seen other pledgings , so know that ritual thoroughly ; one can point out that we set up worthy scholarship , high social standards, jrreproachable personal conduct; that we are banded together for the cultivation of a noble womanhood- but does this help? Can we put down requirements one, two, three for the achievement of a noble womanhood? It is the spiritual, idealistic, intangible thoughts which go into the making of the standards and goals that, to me, make 11 B the inAuence it is in our lives, Do we give these things the thought which they rightfully deserve? I told this pledge all of these things-and told her that to me those were the ideals which we must set up for ourselves- that one had to feel the .deals, and strive to make them part of one's -self, rather than read about them.

The true Pi Phi is one who not only accepts its ideals, but lives them, uses them as a constant source of help and inspiration. Let me cite an example of this. We have now

living in Columbu s an alumna who has been all over this country and surrounding ones as the wife of an army offi cer. She has hundreds of stories about what Pi Phi has meant to her in these strange places. At one time her husband was sent to the Philippine Islands. While there , other new people c ame in and one couple came who had just lost a daughter . Our alumna went to see this neighbor who was so completely broken by her daughter"s death . The friendship which rose between these two women was made richer because the dead daughter had been a Pi Phi and her mother found sola ce in the thought that here was another woman who had shared many of the fine experiences of her daughter.

To me this is an example of living the ideals of n B 4). Here is a Pi Phi who entered a home and gave true friendship and spiritual help which she herself had gained from her experience in the fraternity. She had been inspired, and in turn had the ability to inspire. Every one of us has that ability . Those who want to get the idealism and spiritual help which our fraternity has to offer can get it, but we have to find it for ourselves . One should enter an organization with a dual purpose ; to give as well as to receive.

How can actives c ontribute to the realization of fraternity aims? Let us compare our -

selves, the actives, to the midshipmen in the navy. Midshipmen are young men who are enrolled in the naval academy, receiving training to become officers later in life. We, too, are midshipmen, in the sense that we are training to be officers, No-we won't all become national officers, province officers, or even alumnre club officers but some of us will and those who are not can still help in the training of the midshipmen who later (orne to serve The girls accept the responsi. bility upon initiation of furthering the ideals of the fraternity. They contribute to the realization of fraternity aims: 1. by initiating girls who really deserve the honor which such membership bestows and who are capable of serving the fraternity ; 2. by inspiring the pledges so that they become even better midshipmen than the group before and will know better how they can serve the ship; 3. by continuous service, no t only to fellow midship . men but also to those in rival organizations. Fraternity women must work together, else we cannot succeed.

Let us give thought now to our respon si · bilities to our nation n B is not an or· ganization of merely social aims but one of far deeper and stron ge r purposes. We are all striving for the same goals-as fraternity women, as citizens- the same ideals- noble womanhood and the happiness of humanity.

We , the mid shipmen , stand ready and anxious to serve. True, we have much to learn for we have not manned the ship for long ; we lack experience, for never before have we stood in the firing lin e-bu t we were se lected for our promise of future capacity and every one of us is anxious to prove worthy of that se lectio n. So we look to our officers to give us the orders which we shall endeavor to carry through.

ColJege students are aware of the c risi s in the world today. We realize that once again the democratic philosophy is at stake. We recognize that war, not peace-that de· st ruction , not building- appear to be the gu idin g principles . A new light envelops

the colleges and universities-they are now seen as agencies of defense . It is through them that men and women are trained for national defense occupations, such as doctors, nurses , scientists, and engineers. It is also through them that specia l war activities are ca rried on. We see courses organized by the American Red Cross in which many young women are enrolled; we find university as the headquarters for such organizations as Bundles for Britain and Greek War Reljef. The Civilian Pilot Training course is open to women , and several have received flying in . struction. But even before agencies of national defense, colleges and universities are seen as agenc.ies of the Ameri can purpose. It ha s long been recognized that one American ideal is 0rportunity for all - and certain ly educationa opportunity is the surest safe· gua rd of Our American way of life .

But we must look further a h ead than this. Pea ce, not war-building, not destructionis the normal environment of human progress and happiness We as midshipmen need mor e than a willingness to serve, and a readine ss to carry out orders. We need a guiding principle of allegiance to something far deeper and more fundamental than the mo· ment and the call of the moment. Th e need is for something to build up our morale. as the patriotism of the people he lps build the morale of the army. The fraternity is equal to that need - for on th e masthead of our ship are the ideals and guid ing principles for which we are looking . Let us lift our eyes above the confusion on deck and we will see, on the main mast-

"Whatsoever things are true, Whatsoever things are honest, Whatsoever things are ju st, Whatsoever things are pure, Whatsoever things are lovely, Whatsoever thing s a re of good report . If there be any virtue, If there be any praise, Think-on these things ."

The Women's Fraternities and the War

PARTI CIPATION in national and civilian de -

fense programs was listed briefly at National Panhellenic Congress sessions in New York City where it was learned that already three mobile kitchen units and nearly $40 ,000 have changed h ands in an effort to relieve suffering, particularly in England.

The cash was given to the Canadian Red Cross, the American Red Cross, British War Relief, the Queen's Fund, the Nora Wain Fund, for defense bonds and for subscriptions fo r magazines for the more i solated camps.

A <l n, A r 6, r <I> B, K A 0 , K 6 , <P M, n B cp have made contributions to the regular relief agencies and K K r has sent money to its own Nora WaIn Fund for refugee children in England. To eac h dollar contributed by R K r there have been four added in England so that children have been g reatly helped through the fund admini stered by this Kapp a author.

I K is buying a thousand dollars worth of magazine "subscriptions for training camp s so isolated that men ass ig ned to them hav e inadequate recreational faciliti es .

A r <l matched dollar for dollar money raised by its five Canadian chapters , all of which was give n to the Canadian Red Cross. In addition one c hapt er contributed an equipped canteen for use in London .

Other canteen units have been put in the field in England by A 6 II and r <I> B

A X n is raising money for the support of a hostel in England for bomb-shocked children under five years of age, foHowing the precedent set in World War I when they adopted war orphans.

All N , P.C. fraternities have committees in the process of organizing some project and are encouraging their members to ally themselves with local defense and relief agencies . In some in stances alumna! chapters have organized Red Cross units or taken on defense projects.

<P 1.1 ' 5 national defense committee has been operating since the fall of 1940 and is appare ntly better organized than many for its three fold program is outlined as follows: (I) support of national and c ivilian defense programs by encourag ing cooperation individually or as groups with loca l organizations or urging that such groups be started. (2) Make vocational co ntacts with members to prepare them for the unsettled demands of this e ra of chan ge a nd the necess ity for flexibility which is upon us. (3) Aid chapters in meeting more rigid budgeting requirements, in planning more nourishing meals in the face of increased prices and planning more in genious and less expensive parties.

War Emergency Finds Settlement School

"ON THE ALERT"

BECAUSE responsible group agencies are expected to direct and coordinate all emergency effort, we know that n B <I> Settlement School must expand its services as community and nati on increases war effort demands.

As a member of the Executive Board o f the Local Chapter of the Red Cross, and Chairman of the Committee on Community Welfare , our Pi Phi Health Center nurse is taking an act ive part in organizing and furthering adult first aid classes , and all possible instruction vital to our National Defense Program . Every staff member and all School facilities combine to give all possible coo perati o n to the co mmunity participation in the emergency demands.

It is the belief of the Settlement School Committee that war needs may necessitate a greater service from Pi Phi , and some increased use of our plant and staff. Just what need will be ou r added privilege to serve we do not know, but we are confident that if a need presents itself the strength of Pi Phi ·s will to serve will make possib le our meeting that need with credit.

With no lessening of Our already pled ged service, we expect to meet additional responsibilities as they come. No worthy burden is to o g reat when backed by the uni ted effort of Tl B <1>.

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

EdiJed by MILDRED ODELL SALE, NorJh Dak oJa A

John Poore, n e w Arts and Crafts teacher, is a graduate of the University of Tennessee , where he received a Tea ching Fellowship, after graduating, in the field of special edu· catio n for the exceptio n al child , for his Mas· ter of Science Degree with a major in Arts and Crafts and minor in Education. He has taught Jewelry and Metal Crafts at Penland Schoo l of Crafts in North Carolina, and at Christenberry Junior High School Art De ·

partment at Knoxville, Tennessee , before join. ing the Pi Phi staff this past fall. Mr Poore is a member of K I , and of the honorary f ra · ternity, <I> II K.

The courses now being taught by Mr Poore , in the Arts and Crafts Shop include Jewelry , Metal Crafts, Ceramics, Block Print · ing, and the Native Crafts. In Jewelry the students are studyi ng the fundamental techniques of co nstru ct ing and decorating rings set with semi·precious stones, ste rlin g silver pins arid clips , a co mbination of copper and brass bracelet s, and decorative cha ins . In their Metal Work in constructing plates, trays ,

bowls, lamp s, ca ndle sticks, bookends, st ru ctural and decorative design is being s tressed. Laboratory problems in ceramics include the techniques of hand building of familiar animals and the like, wheel throwing, pressing from moulds, slip cast ing, glazing, and the firing of the kiln that was just purchased for the department this past year. The methods of textile decoration are also being studied which include the various techni<Jues of block printing, stenciling, and tie dyeing,

The problem of Education in the field of Crafts is met and solved in the following ways here at the sc hooL There is first an organized method for solving problems . This naturally redu ces the period of learning because of its completely controlled co nditions . It also re o duces the cost of discovering the abilities of the students by the method of shifting them from an unsuitable Craft, say possibly Cera· mics to Metal Work, which probably is more suited to the talents, aptitudes, and likes of the particular boy or gir l. Therefore they wi ll have a keener interest in finding their work because they are better adjusted and adapted to it through such an intergration of likes a nd dislikes.

These students after this has been done will learn by doing each of the Crafts until they find the one they like to do the most. Try · in g out the Craft is the best test of fitness for it. Working at the Craft is the mo st effective way to ga in proficiency in its performance. Through training in this way by actual par· ticipation the Crafts that they select are able to measure their own interests and talents against the actual requirements and working co nditions of the Craft. This is jmportant because they ca n get some jd ea of what is re· quire<! in the work as a whole; they can learn whether or not their interests should be directed toward this field or another field of economic activity. The Craft program at the Settlement School here co nsequently furnishes an excellent opportunity to use organized par· ticipatin g experiences for instruction . Juniors and Seniors at the school are al· lowed to take the Arts and Crafts courses. The course is an elective one, and conse-

quently the boys and girls taking it are genuinely interested in their work. There are also adult classes and the Crafts department is open afternoons and h\'O evenings a week for both students and adults to work if they so wish.

As an added incentive to do fine work in the

TCrafts the students are permitted to sell their finer articles of workmanship 1n the Arrow Craft Shop. Quite a few of the more practical minded talented students have taken advantage of this offer and over $200 worth of their articles has been sold during the last few months.

Boston Area Pi Phis = W e Salute You

HE New England Flower Show is an interesti ng and beautiful memory to over 100,000 visitors.

Selling over $2,000 worth of Arrowcraft to these visitors goes down in n hi story as a merchandising achievement. Success of this alumnre venture beyond our fondest hopes.

It all happened this way. In January your Settlement School comm ittee was surprised and delighted to receive an invitation to participate in the New England Spring Flower Show, to be held through March 16 to 21 in Boston . The invitation came from Mr Harlan P. Kelsey, president of the Association . Because the Great Smokies was to be the theme of this year's flower show, Mr. Kelsey had toured the Smoky Mountain region under the guidance of Major Aiken, Superintendent of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. So impressed was Me. Kelsey wilh the importance of Pi Beta Phi's endeavor, and so pleased was he with the quality and beauty of our Arrowcraft products that he suggested immed iately that a showing of our products would add greatly to the featuring of the Great Smokies.

Further, because he was impressed with the unselfish service of our philanthropy, he suggested that an exception might be made which would allow us to sell our products if we wished to make some money for our project. Ordinarily , only garden supplies are sold at these Flower Shows.

The invitation was accerted. and Beth Le Roy. Boston member 0 the Settlement School Committee, enthusiastically took charge and enlisted the help of over fifty Pi Phis. Special appreciation is due Mrs. Kenneth Wildes, who worked full time daily to coordinate the efforts of so many generous Pi Phis . The Fraternily and the Settlement School Committee are indebted for all time to those loyal enthusiastic Pi Phis, the active girls of Massachusetts Alpha and of the Boston Alumnre Club, whose spontaneous

respon se 10 this sudden call 10 hard labor deserves honorabl e mention along with OUf gratitude. To the satisfaction which all Pi Phis will feel because of the national recog· nition of the quality and high standards of our Settlement School service will be added the even greater joy occasioned by the com· pletely unselfish cooperation of Boston area Pi Phis in their enthusiastic effort to do justice to a wonderful opportunity.

To co mpensate for the hard work there were many amusing incidents and human interest stories.

A passing VISitor remarked, "Look! They ' re Greeks! They don't look like Greeks." Another watc hing intently said, "Mountaineers! I don't see that they're any different from the rest of us."

A member of another f ralernity came rushing up to the booth on Saturday and said, " / came especially to find out what the Pi Phis have that we haven 't. Every girl that I have recomme nded ths year at dif · ferent colleges has gone n <fl! What is it you have?"

"The Settlement School," of course, was the answer.

The stock was lovely Much credit goes to Ethel Snow, Arrowc raft Director, and her staff of girls who packed so beautifully the huge shipment from Arrowcraft. Pi Phis ex· pressed joy in handling the lovely linens and fine wool. A Imost the first sale was the single bed coverlet and a large hooked rug, and the Whig Rose things disappeared rapidly.

Gene Redding, our weaving director at the school, added greatly to the inlerest of our booth by weaving at her loom. Many fine talks were given about our work by Gene , Anna Ni ckerson, Sarah Rugg and Beth Le Roy.

Both Gene and Beth were invited to appear on Connie Stackpole's New England Cupboard Broad casl-Statio n WNAC.

On Tuesday of the show Mrs . Priscilla

forte scue broadcast on her program an an · noun cement of OUf part in the Flower Show , and planned for Gene to be interviewed over the radio the week following the show. There was much publicity for the Fraternity, all good. The newspaper syndicate and the ChriJlian Science MOllitor asked for copy . Pi Beta Phi Settlement School was on the map as far as Boston was concerned.

So thorough and eager are Boston Pi Phis that they are planning to have sales in Melrose and other sma ll towns following the show until the $3,000 stock is entirely so ld . They are priding themselves that nothin g will go ba ck to t he School but money

So again Pi Phi's great asset-our Settle -

ment School - has proved how deep-rooted is the desire to express humble gratitude for our blessings in terms of unselfish labor to promote the happ iness and well being of others.

The Committee regrets the loss by death of Mr. Steve Whaley, fine Gatlinburg c itizen and good friend of the Settlement School through all the years of its existence. For many years Mr. Whal ey gave loyal service to the School in the local commi ttee- his friendshi p and wise advice will be greatly missed.

Dr. Clementine Bash

One of the outstanding Pi Phis who spent her life as a medical missionary in China was Dr. Clementine Bash, sisler of Mary I Bash, Wash. ington A, now associate ciean of women in the University of Washington. Thei.r father, because he was interested in the promotion of railways in China, took his family to Peking. There, when Clemmie was fourteen years old, she became so deeply interested in the Chinese that she decided to become a missionary doctor.

As a member of the petitioning group, which later became Washington A of II B Clementine gave it much courage and inspiration . In 1906 she was graduated from the U n iversity of Washington with high honors, winning B K; in 1911 she received her docto r's degree from the Women's Medical College of Philadelphia.

Purdue Faculty

MllCtha Ann Anthony, Missouri r, is now on the faculty of Purdue She is at the same time getting her Masler' s degree in chemistry She is also head of One of the ,ll:irls' dormitories there

After serving her internship in New Yorlc City, in 19B Dr. Bash sailed for Peking, where she joined the staff of the Douw Presbyterian Hospital, later becoming its superintende nt. H ere for twenty years she ,ll:ave her time and strength until her death on December 23, 1941. It was no wonder that many sought this place of service a,j the "hospita l with a heart." Daily she lived Christ. She will· li ve on and on in the lives of the many she helped to know Him. One who was most intimately associated with Dr. Bash has said, "Earth is poorer for her and she will be sore ly missed I wonder if any member of our Peking staff was ever so loved by the Chinese, or ever so loved them ."

With Pan. American

The thrill of being the first woman on the west coast to work in the traffic department of the Pan American Airlines came to Louise McMaster of Oregon B this last summer. From her office on Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay. Louise could w3;tch the arrival and departure of the large clipper shIps.

H e r work co nsisted of charting trips for passengers to such parts of the World as New Zealand, Shanghai, Guam, Midway, H o n olu lu, Jap an , and many other p laces . D ue to the everchanging conditions of the world at present, many new problems and situatio n s confront Louise's department every day. Meeting celebrities, gove rnm ent officials. and people fcom all parts of the globe is a daily occurrence for Miss McMaster.

Man y hours of study were necessary to gain the knOWledge needed for such a position, but it has all had its reward_ in that Miss McMaster may have an opportunity of being transferred to inter. esting pl aces like Guam, South America, Midway, and many other places where Pan American Air. lines have extensio n s, when the war is ove r

Head of Women's Defense Group Is Capable Leader

M argaret Fry Pierce, Maryland, A, who gives con6dence to workers, is well qualified to lead ac· tivities as President, Pasadena Pan hellenic.

" Littl e did Mrs. Lewis Ives Pierce realize when she majored in social welfare at Goucher Co ll ege, Baltimore, that she would be called upon to use her knowledge in anything so important as a nat io nal emergency.

But now as the newly appointed chairman of Women 's Activities in the Pasadena Coun· ci l, sh e i s cha ll enged with an application of her capabilities in a truly great movement.

She faces the challenge earnest ly and cheerfully, giving confidence to all her fellow workers, just as she has in the past as president of the College Women's Oub, the Woman's Civic Leagur, and as committee worker in these and other women's organizations of the city,

Her job at present is mainly to see that women of Pasadena are adequately represented on the committees of the Defense Counci l and to see that there is no ovedapping of women's activities in national defense and community development fie lds.

Mrs. Pierce has always been a civic -minded per· son. She reads everything she can find along these lines and vitally in the Pasadena Council of Social Agencies,

She was born in Paris, France, but grew up in Pasadena, attending local public schools before going to college .

Her hobbies are swimming and golf, and be · sides all her other jobs she does mo st of her own housework; likes to get mea ls, and wash the

dishes afterwards; believes thoroughly that women shou ld stick to the things they are best fitted to do, a nd leave men's work for the men."

FROM PI PHI PENS

Edited by MERCEDES BAKER JORGULESCO, lliaJIarhuJettJ A

DOWN RYTON WATERS

A belated welcome to this department is extended to Eva Roe Gaggin, New York A, for ooly recently did we learn that she is the author of severa l delightful young people's books. All of which is our loss, for if her latest book Down Rytoll Waters is a sample of ber writing, we have delayed too long in making her acquaintance.

It is a far cry from the saccharine books we were allowed to read as girls to the wellconstructed, adventurous books Mrs . Gaggin writes for young people. We found ourselves moved by the plot, sympathetic with the chaeacters and fascinated by the great wealth of historical detail in D own Rylon Waler!. We know of no greater compliment to pay the author than to say that this is the type of book intelligent parents would want their children to read and, what is more important, it is the type of book the youngsters themselves wou ld want.

Young Matt Over tells hi s adventurous story in the first person. He's only five when the tale begins in Scrooby, England one June day in 1608. He's a healthy, normal boy, not unlike the youngsters of today . If a fellow found a messenger of the cruel Stuart king flinging abuses at his mother and the only thing he had for ammunition was a big, fat, slippery eel, would anyone blame him for using the eel to advantage? That's just bow Young Matt reasoned before he sent the mes o senger reeling away in haste and discomfort. The unwelcomed guest dropped his whistle whi ch would have summoned all the king's men in the vicinity with disastrous results for the little Over family. Matt's mother, Orris, dec lares that the wbistle sha ll never be blown unless a member of the family need to summon aid. Years later, when Young Matt has grown to man's estate with a family of his own, the whistle is blown under amusing circumstances. That occurence neatly ties together the first and last incidents of the book.

In addition to Young Matt and his mother, the family consists of strong, courageous

Father Matt, an older sister Winnifret and the baby 'Memby. One cold misty morning they slip down to Ryton Ford to begin a secret journey to search for freedom from oppression. Orris carries with her a bowl of plants from her precious herb garden. Their journeys take them to Amsterdam and Leiden and finally on the Speedwell to Plymouth Harbor. To each new place, Orris brings cuttings from her plants. Here at last in the New World is fertile ground where they will thrive and grow strong, safe from the tcacnpling feet of king's men. Here is where her children will thrive, grow up and have families of their own, safe from the oppression of the Stuart king. A few years later, when the story ends, the children have all left her fireside to establish homes of their own, but Mother Oris finds she is needed. A very young Over blows the whistle to summon aid.

Down Ryton Water; was the January selection for girls of the Junior Literary Guild It should, however, find a wide appeal aenong boys who enjoy historical novels . It not only has a wealth of historical facts, but the pace of its plot is fast, its story adventurous. And so, welcome to this department again, Mrs. Gaggin. May we see your name often aenong authors of new books by Pi Beta Phis!

THE AUTHOR; Eva Roc Gaggin grew up in Cambridge, Massa chusetts. As a little girl she used to gaze up at the bronze statue o f John Bridge on Cambridge Common. Her grandfather was a John Bridge and so was her uncle and a cousin or two. The fanciful imagination of the little girl turned the bronze of the statue into flesh and blood. She began to wonder how they lived and what they like, and ever since then she has never ceased delving into th e fascinating lives and backgrounds o f the first settlers.

Her literacy career began at the tender age of eight, when her first short story won a prize offered by a Boston newspaper. The author traveled about with her father in different parts of the world, spent severa l years in Switzerland, returned to study at Oberlin, and finally was graduated from Syracuse University.

The author indulges in her unusual hobby of

collecting herbs and wild flowers, during summcrs spent on an island in the St. Lawrence River Someone told hee that nothing but weeds grew there, so she collected over three hundred speci· mens of wild flowers in three months to prove they were wrong

She recently publi shed a young people's book uarning, wherein her vast knowledge of herbs and wild flowers furnished the tW e. In another book, An Ea r lor Uncle Emil, she uses the rich experience o f the years spent in Switzerland fo r her backgro und

WHAT THE REVIEWER S SAY: " A writt en book, providing a live portrayal of the Pilgrims, an out-of-the-ordi nary interpretation of the Father s, a warm , appealing story of family life. It is , too a book: with a challenge for

these days, when freedom is again threatened and we may well rcall at what sacrifices it was estab· lished in Ameri ca . " -Ch rist ian Sriln(1 M O"it or, Bosto n

" A beautiful and moving book,"-DaiIJ NewJ, Chicago.

" Of all the year ' s fiction for young people, thi s is probab lv the most distinguished cont.ribution, s tr ongly, tenderly, and beautifully told, Thi s will be no easy story for a boy o r girl to forget."DallaJ M oming New J, Dallas, Texas .

CANON BRETT

Herewith, we present a brand new Mary Badger Wilson , D .C. A and New York B. She' s the one and the same person who authored "rosy romances," to borrow her own

Mar, BaJ,n WilJ o", D.C . A and New York B phrase, but now she has betaken herself into more weighty novel writing. But no implication of stodginess is meant. Her/lots remain entertaining and well-constructe , her characters life-like However, in her new novel Canon Brell, she weaves her plot around a central theme that is of concern to many sincere individuals.

The Reve re nd John Brett has devoted the better part of his forty odd years to his poor little parish and tbe mill folk who are " his

people." His denomination aHows marriage, but he has never concerned himself with these matters. Ministering to his impoverished people, guiding underprivileged boys from a life of crime, clinging to the tenets of his church even though it means incurring the anger of his only wealthy parishionerthese are the matters that have fiUed his life Not even his impossible sister, Grace, who continually nags him about hi s small salary can deter him from his purpo se or rob him of the contentment his work affords him

But John finds the even tenor of his ways upset when the Bishop of Midcity Cathedral appoints him to a minor ca nonicate, Thousands of dollars must be raised to comp lete the cathedral and a good- look ing cle r gyman such as Brett would be a very useful tool to wheedle the cost of a transept or a rose window from affluent dowagers. Then too, reasons the Bi shop, Brett's vote can be counted upon for "modernizing" the administration of cat hedral affairs . With misgivings, John sets about his task of collecting the needed funds, from prospect lists furnished by his superior. While executing his duties, a wealthy matron introduces him to her niece, lisa, estranged wife of a habitual drunkard. Lisa is a strong character, courageous and understanding. John finds himself attracted to her because she possesses the same qualities that he has. They fall desperately in love but Lisa realizes that even though she could win her freedom on grounds that John's church would recognize they would never be able to make their marriage a success. Lisa proves herself the stro ng er of the two. Gossips whisper ugly and totally unfounded rumors . Ironi caliy, the Bishop , whom John feels is " too modern"

is the very one who dismisses him from his invaluable work 01 building men's souls in, stead 01 building cathedrals, lor the reason that his love for Lisa reveals him " too modern" to carry on his churchly duties, It never occurs to the Bishop that the rumors might be unlounded. John is a lost man when he finds all his work destroyed and himsell lalsely accused but he musters the co urage and strength to work out his' own destiny and find again the peace he knew . Miss Wilson 's book should be considered from two points of view. First let us consider the story elements. The plot is expertly constructed and the marolters are exceptionally well drawn. They are so true to life that their counterparts will have been met by many readers. This lact brings us to the second consideration-that of the central theme of the book and the question it raises: If the first obligation of organized religion is to bring people closer to God, should it borrow modern business methods by employing such means as high pressure salesmen of transept windows and prospect li sts of wealthy dowagers who have already given large sums but are good for more? Sometimes, the author implies, we are hard pressed to see the church because 01 the ornaments, Miss Wil son handles the question admirably; she co nsiders it from many ang les without prejudice,

And the answer? This is John Brett's

answer in the concluding chapter: "The world had become hostile to Christianity. . , , But Christianity had been born in a hostile world, and had grown strong in adversity. Surely it could be reborn now. But not, John told himself, by popular shortcuts to salvation-only through the dedication of individual lives to the Christian principle."

THE AUTHOR : M ary Badger Wilson appearrd in this department as far bade as February, 1934. Ever si nce then, she has published consistently , Her short stories have appeared in the Sallu'da, Evtning Pall and other prominent magazines, Among her books are H is/or, 0/ St . Albanl, Bar. rowed PlllmtJ, Y uurdaYJ Pr omiu, Stp:lrate Star, From Nine 10 Five, New Dream l /01' Old, and Th, Painud Cil.,. As we go to press, Miss Wilson writes that she is unable to furnish us with further bioAtaphical facts, because of the serious illness of her mother. H ere's wishing Mrs . Wilson a com· plete and speedy l'«overy.

WHAT A FRATERNITY GIRL THINKS . . .

What the Girls Think of War

JP' e' ve been col/ecting art ide! on sllbjects connected with national 0fJence- 1uhich seems a more filling Jerm si nce we are engaging in active war, not merely warding oU ils possibility. In ollr hands when t he war br oke were the followin g interesting contriblltions fo r " IVbaJ a Fratunity Girl Thinks'" The y were UJriuen in Oct ober, wbich adds to Iheir imeresl.

OF PRESENT DAY ACTIVITIES

Today on all sides we hear talk of war, marriage, politics and our own fight for democracy. Is it, as Hamlet says, just a matter of "words, words, words" or does the fraternity woman of today do more than think, and talk ? Does she act? Our present day activities are bound up with the present day crisis, but do we of the fraternities realize this, or do we live in glass hou ses, set aside from the off·campus world ? We of Washington A have just built a beautiful new house and I recently heard a father inspe ct ing it remark, "My, these sorority wemen literally live in an ivory tower!" He was wrong. We have built something beautiful and permanent to work in while we live today, and so mething which will house and inspire young women long after this present war and cris is are forgotten. It is necessary in these times when every· thing is built for destructive purposes to have also things which remind us of the higher, more permanent goals in life.

But it is true that the fraternity woman must avoid the ivory tower where nothing outside her own comfort, dates , and studies count. Her place in the nation al emergen cy is not the spectacular place men hold. She must be one of the group that make the country l ivab l e despite the war emergency. First, she is one of the few who can ca rry on the culture of the cou ntry Literature, art, and music classes unnecessary to actual de· fense, mu st be kept alive for the future America The fraternity wom:m can stimulate interest in these cou rses. A group could then te ach what they had learned to discus-

sian groups formed among the soldiers, using a small cam\', library which they cou ld furnish with the etter literature, or musica l recordings of classical n ature, or art reprodu ct ions borrowed from the art museums to supplement their talks. I am sure young univer sity·army m en would find this a welcome diversion in their army life

Also the fraternity woman must be one of the group that carries on th e socia l work of the country. With the big defense projects under way there are few left to work on the large socia l -wo rk programs we have, o n ce run by W.P . A. and N.Y.A. help , now standing still because of insufficient workers. In stead of empty activities (empty in the sense they have no last ing value) fraternity women could make it "the thing to do" to help on th ese desperately needed programs (housing projects, child ca re clinics , etc.) . In this way they could mak;e a real and valuable contribution to civic life in the community.

Also the fraternity woman can help the young people her age find things of lasting value. Tod ay all too many young people feel only the "temporary crisis, brink, and nothing more" type of world. Our fraternity stands for values in Life whi ch nothing can destroy In this time of uncertainty it is up to the fraternity woman to make a ll about her realize these values and live with them, for

" What so ever things are true- We think on these things."

OF WAR WORK

I am sure it would be interesting to Pi Phis all over to hear something of the type of war work carried on by Canadian co llege girls. On OUf own campus there is a " women 's Service Training Deta chment" in which students are enrolled as privates or officers and wear a spec ial uniform. These girls have regular drill and take lectures on various aspects of war work- secretarial, air· raid precautions, food administration and other similar subjects. Courses in First Aid , Home Nursing and Motor Transport are also available , Many college girls work regularly at the Red Cross, and, of course, the click of knitting needles is nOw a familiar sound in the lecture room. In OUf residences there is a special girl in charge of knitting and the output of garments per year is prodigious . Many girls have joined Ihe Red Cross Transport Service while still at the univer · sity and, after a period of intensive training, are seen driving tru cks and station wagons in the of this great organization. Another project which ca n be undertaken on the ca mpus itself is raising money for war charities. The fraternities as a whole, under

the banner of Panhetlenic, are making a real effort to make enough to buy utilicons for the Red Cross, A Victory Ball is being held for this purpose in October, and though initiated in Toronto the idea has spread farther afield , and similar dances are being held by other Panhellenic Asso ::iations in Canada on the same night.

Many co llege girls are active in canteen work , and go regularly to the Naval and active service canteens to help feed and entertain the men. Another and more recent activity is packing boxes for prisoners of war in Germany

It is also interesting to hear of specialized jobs undertaken by graduates: one alumna has an important job of a secret nature in New York, and another has recently been appointed head technician of the Red Cross blood donor laboratory in Montreal.

There are, of course, many other types of work which ca n be done, but I hope this gives a slight picture of what co llege girls are accomplishing in these times.

OF SOPHISTICATION

This article is not limited to fraternity problems because, it seems to me, that our immediate co nce rn s should extend beyond those of the Fraternity . Too often we become so absorbed in our own little affairs that we fail to see that they are significant only as they relate to a wider pattern of living

In part, then, this is a protest. A protest against the sop histi cat ion which, in recent years, ha s become almost a cult among educated men and women. In one way this trend toward sophistication was beneficial, because it expressed a revolt against the sentimentalism of the nineteenth century I n its present extreme state, however, it is a dangerou s threat to our security.

One attitude of our sophistication has been that of indifference to things which were happening outside our immediate circle. and a contempt for people who were interested in these things As a result , the unpleasant situation of the world's affairs was thrust upon us suddenly, and, being unprepared to meet it, we crawled back into Our protective sophistication. No longer able to ignore what i s happenin g, we have developed a new de-

fense attitude- that of disbelief. " We can't believe anything; it's all propaganda" is an expression of our attempt to escape the need for decisive action. But, the need still exists. Unless we meet it we shall be destroyed through our co mplacency

Undoubtedly, the changes in standards of value are responsible for the confusion which we are trying, unsu ccess fully, to escape. Yet, there must be some solution. In the absen ce of rigid social standards of right and wrong, it seems to me, that we should establish individual standards. The "e ternal verities" still exist, and on them we can establish our beliefs,

For example , if we believe that man has a right to live in freedom , we should respect the people who are fighting to maintain that freedom On the basis of what we believe to be right , we ca n discrimioate between what is propaganda and what is not. If our beliefs are strong there is no need for co nfusion. When the time comes, we must be prepared to fight to maintain them, Meanwhile, we mu st strengthen them in our own minds.

Thi s i s a job for the individual. But , th e re i s also a job which n B <I» as a n organization could perfo rm .

OF THE WORLD CRISIS

It is impossible to speak of thoughts in any broad sense today without relatinll them to the world crises of the time. 10 an . all out war" ideas are playing a great part. One might almost call them a major weapon. It is then fitting that we should consider the relation between a Pi Phi's thoughts and the principles for which SO many are giving their lives.

/\. Pi Phi is instructed to think on ·'What· soever things are true, whatsoever things are honest." This implies the privilege of think · ing as she chooses. It implies her right to sufficient knowledge to determine what is true and honest This is possible only under a democratic form of government.

Fraternities stand for loyal friendships. In order to maintain this high standard eac h girl must constantly think of ways in which she might help or advise her sisters. Such

friendships would be impossible under a government which demands that its citizens think only of the state. The basis of our fraternity would be broken under a system by which the gestapo work day and night.

The fact that fraternities are international is in itself a revolt against the idea that any nation should rule the world for its own good. National hatred and intolerance are foreign to the very nature of fraternities.

It is for these things so necessary for our very organization that our young men are so diligently training, so patiently enduring hardships and so gallantly offering their lives If, then, ideas or thoughts are of any use a fraternity girl ought to be ready to give them that moral support which they so justly deserve.

ON RUSHING

Because college fraternities are being increasingly exposed to criticism from outside sources, rushing has become one of their most important functions , Now , more than ' ever, we must seriously consider the problem of securing girls whose every action will bespeak the worthiness of the fraternal institution, whose personality will be a witness to the fact that organized women are making a definite contribution to our democratic society. We of n B 4> , as an important link in Panhelleni c's chain , must do our part in showing the world at large that the fraternity is of ever-increasing importance to our American way of life , In view of these things, I have written an imaginary letter to the members of n B <1>, in hopes that our attitudes toward rushing may be clarified; that our fraternal bonds may be strengthened. The letter follows:

Dear Pi Phis,

I've been thinkin,q: about you so much today , admiring you for vour enthusiasm, your sincerity, your desire to do the right thing during the rushins period , I've been mentally patting each one of yOu on the back for the nice things I've been hearing about you , Do you know that not one of the girls we've asked back for a second date has refused to come? I kept thinking how proud last year's seniors would be of you. And then, all of a sudden , a horrible thought came to me: I've been sittin,g here daydreaminJ!: about our superiority, when there 's some thing really terribly wrong about the picture, something missing from the

meetings. something which is completely destroying our perspectives; that thing, that mysterious link, I choose to call the Pi Phi ideal. J suddenly remembered snatches of conversation which have come back to me, s u ch as, "Oh, she's not Pi Phi material ," "She's a goon," "She has no poise whatsoever." As I muttered these stock phrases to myself, they sounded so superficial, so inadequate, so utterly foreign to the real thinJl;s which we are striving for , that J felt I must write you this Jetter tonight in hopes that we might define certain things clearly in our minds, that we might come closer together in our fraternal bonds, and go through the rest o f the rushing period with 3 unity of there is only one aim which is worth striving for- that of the Pi Phi ideal.

I realize that rve been beating around the bush, and talking in generalities long enough Most of you are probably completely batHed as to what I'm Reuing at. In order to help you out of the fog, in which we have all been wandering for the past few days, I am .e;oin.e; to tell you who I think is the ideal Pi Phi Airl. Her name i.s--well, Mary Smith is as good a name as any, The first we heard about Mary was in a wonderful recommendation .s ent to us from an alumnz group which is very and highly thought of in its community. Do you remember how we all raved when we read that recommendation? It read somdhing like this: "Scholarship excellent; an enthusiasm for extracurricular activities, an excellent family background, marvelous personality. a good worker, and a true friend, Irreproachable moral character ; a girl you can't :tR'ord to do without:' Well, that was the recommendation, And, do you remember the day she came? It was raining, and her hair had fallen down, way down Her dothes weren't wh a t you would have called "knockout"; in fact, 50me of us thought they were disgustingly home·

madish. I kn ow it' s against the rul e to repeal anything: whi ch has come up in a ru shi n g meeting, but I must r emind you o f the st ruggle some o f our "pillars" had in getting that girl through . Some of u s o b jec ted because s h e wasn't a beauty queen; some of us because she wasn't smoot h . A coup le sa id that she was too much of a s tudent , and couldn't talk about e lse but studying and cla sses. Well, I don't need t o t ell you anything mOre about M ary. H er scho lars hip reco r d con tinu ed thr o u.'lho ut co lle ge-she was a Juni or Phi Bete; she was into everyth ing down at the League; she dated th e g r andes t f ell ows. t oothey a ll had so much respect f o r hcr abilities and her pe rsona li ty. And what a marvelous gal s h e was to h a ve a ro und the house! Never a dull moment with h er-a nd how s illy we we re to think she didn't hav e anyt hing wh e n s he came to th e tea. Y ou kn ow wh a t I th ink ? I think w e came near to mi ssi ng that girl because we were so co nfu sed as to our id ea ls. We didn't sto p to think that our sc h ola rsh ip rat in g was in a n a la rmin g s l ump, th at the most intelli ge nt gi rls are o f le n sca red s tiff dur ing ru s hing beca u se they a re SO comp letel y aware of what is going o n around them. W e a lm ost forgot t o lo o k beneath her somc-

what frump is h exterio r, to find out what the girl wa s r ea ll y lik e. We forgot, for fhe moment, th at lo t s o f us ce rt a inl y were n o roses when we made the r ounds to ou r first t eas, th at our hair was down, th at we were so scared we co uldn 't be ourse lve s. W e also forgot that our inability to draw th e ,g irl out was 99 pe r cenl our fault-after a ll, if all we could ta lk about w as o ur hom e to wn , o ur dat es, o ur poor mark s, we ce rtainly couldn't expec t much more fr om Ma ry.

Well , you a ll kn ow that M ary i s a fic titi ous cha ra c t e r , an ideal to be striv en towa rd I have talk ed to you abo ut h e r because she i s so cl ose to my heart, because she is Pi Phi She n eed s u s for the thing s which we ca n give h e r- a m o re rounded personality, mare confidence, a rea lization of all of her fin e r attributes; w e n eed her, because we need girls who will ca ery o n the id ea l s of th e Fraternity, o f int e ll ectua l achievement, of service, o f high moral sta nd ards, o f tru e friendship. I am as king yo u girls to rearrange your p erspect iv e, to a lter your viewpoint, to st ri ve for new ideal s.

ABOUT SCHOLARSHIP

South Dakota is tllinking more about sc holarship ju st now than about anything else becau se we have ju st been awarded the sc holarship cup for maintaining the hi g hest average of any organized group on the campus for the year 1940- 4 1.

Each one of us realizes, however, that it wa s not ju s t luck that we won the cup. H ours of planning by the leaders and by the act ivc chapter as a whole we n t into sett in g up an effective program of study whereby each pledge and each active co uld d o the best classroom work of which she was capable. Last year's resu lts prove that our p lans a re at least a step in the direction of better scholarship for the group.

May I tell you about some of the idea s we have tried ? Maybe they will so lve some of your problems .

We encourage bot h pledges and actives to

atte nd every cla ss. Except before and after vac ations, we have no administrative penal . ties for "cutti ng" classes , but teachers become prejudi ced against s tudents who mis s classes regularly This is rath e r an effortless way of keeping up a good gra de without the so obvious "ap ple-poli shin g."

Each spon so r is responsible for her sponsec 's study hours . Each pled ge is asked to spe nd two hours a day studyin g in the libe , but she is fr ee to go whe n eve r she wishes , and no official s tudy table is co ntrolled there by thc act iv es as is done by some of t he houses. She acco unt s for h er library time to her sponsor who keeps a close ch ec k on her progress in her subjects. If more time is necded to compl ete the work, thcy both look ovcr thc pled ge's sc hedul e to find an extra hour in the day that she could spe nd in thc library .

A two hour study table is held in the dlapter house on three evenings during the week, on Saturday mornings, and on either Sunday afternoon or evening , as the pledge may prefer.

A.t any time, a pledge may feel free to consult onc of the upper classmen about a course in which she is having difficulty. Our seniors are majoring in a wide range of courses, and someone can help a younger girl with almost any subject. Man) problems can be solved early in the school year before the class goes onward to more difficult material. Freshman themes cause the most trouble. A theme is due each week, and Sunday afternoon finds the girls grouped around the table in the dining room having themes checked by English maiors for punctuation, grammar, and general sentence construction .

Actives and pledges alike have to forfeit the privilege of dating on Wednesday night, the one mid·week date night, if they have failed to maintain the initiation average for the preceding nine weeks period. If the pledges make this average, they are given some special privilege. They are told at the beginning of the year that they will have this advantage if they make a good average, and it is an incentive for them to do better work

Our scholarship chairman keeps a chart of the averages of the whole house, and another one of the averages of the pledges. This is put on the bulletin board , and every girl can see how she ranks scholastically with every other girl in the house The spirit of competition seems to be strong in every one of us .

Our president has held the f ratemity Scholarship Ring for the past two years, and this symbolizes a goal toward which each girl can strive.

We are not all <I> B Ks. We all like to date and to have a good time. One of our girls was a candidate for the most popular girl on the campus last year. We have the president of the dramatic organization on lhe campus , and girls active in radio workshop work. Besides that, we have the prettiest and most popular freshmen on the campus for our new pledges We do a great many besides studying; however, we think that scholarship of the highest ranking on the campus has done something [or our prestige here in town and on the campus that we (ould have attained in no other way .

TRAINING FOR LIFE

For the majority of college women there i s no question so vital today as that of the job to be held when she is graduated from the university which she has attended for a comparatively well·protected four years of learning and fun. The "bull·session" in which the major opinions and problems of the coed are most commonly aired has in· creasingly been absorbed by discussions not of men, nor of occurrences on campus, but the ever present question of a woman's place in the world of today.

The general consensus of opinion in most of the Pi Phis' minds is that even in the event of marriage shortly after graduation, the most successful wife is not only the one who is wise in her choice and very much in love, but also the woman who realizes that the homes with the least friction are man· aged by women who pos=s the ability really to make a career of their home·making. At all .events, with present political conditions what they are (involving more opportunities for the enterprising woman, both in the more

liberal attitude of male employers, and in the great number of positions left by men who have been drafted) it is essential for every girl to prepare herself while in college for the work that is ahead immediately after graduation.

It is to be admitted that the curriculum of most universities affords little in actual practical training other than courses in Edu· cation or even shorthand. However it is in the sorority that a college woman can often find the opportunity and the facilities which will prepare her to meet the vicissitudes in every-day life.

In essence, the sorority develops a sense of responsibility in each woman . in regard to the group which she represents, still affording her plenty of opportunity to excercise a natural leadership. The sorority stresses the necessity of entering into community life, whether it is a matter of participating in col· lege activities, or whether it is rising to meet a crisis in the community. In OUf chapter we had two girls who helped the townspeople

register c hildren for inoculations and vacci· nations, another who, in conjunction with the Sociology Department, organized a Scout Troop for the little gi rl s in town whose recreational facilities were limited Among the many other community activities entered in. one gid who was studying Religious Edu· cation was very active in the local church circles, and many of the girls contributed both thei r time and their handwork to an Art Week project locally spnnsored. We have all fe lt that we not only found a more permanent place in the community, and increased ami·

cab le relations with the townspeople, but we ourselves profitted endlessly from these activities in widening our interests, and gaining much in our ability to coope rate with peop le who were capab le leaders.

Personal relations, and the comprehension early that in any field it is real work and submersion of self in some common aim that makes for success in any enterprise are fo stered by the sorority, whi ch upholds to us all ideals that must of necessity prepare us for whatever awaits us after graduation.

INTER·SORORITY FRIENDLINESS

In a small college sororities have a most impnrtant place in the lives of all the girls, and it is very necessary for each group to realize and a cknowledge the qualities and friendships in the groups outside of their own individual fraternity. One is apt to become smug and se lf-satisfied about hec fraternity, her friends, and her chapter's honors, and forget that there are other organizations on the ca m pus which are as worthy as h e rs is, Tennessee A realized this and decided to help in a movement to foster better a nd closer inter -sorority relationship on its campus . We began by inviting members from the other three sororities, (fl M, X 0, A 6. n , to have supper with us on Monday night when the

chapter ate at the house. The X 0 chapter reciprocated by having an open house one afternoon a month and entertaining members from the other sororities. cP M then asked several members from the sororities to have supper at their house one night a month. These visits were fun, and we sincerely felt that we had gained a lot by visiting in the other chapter houses , singing with the other sororities, and exchanging ideas and views with other sorority girls. We included many non -fraternity girls in these plans, an d know we fostered a better s\',irit between them a nd the sorority groups y this small show of friendliness and interest.

OF WORKING TOGETHER

Working together for II B <!> not only unites us by our mutual efforts to do a useful job, but it gives us a sense of values for things hitherto taken foc granted. Last sp r ing, Louisiana A learned that u nd er the new Panhellenic rules at Newcomb, all cushing must be done in the sorority rooms. Thi s immediately turned attention to the appearance of these rooms , and it was agreed that they must be redecorated. Consu lting th e treasurer, the members decided that there could be more and better redecoration if the cost of labor was done away with. In chapters where girls may live in a n B 4> house, members probably have the experience of working on the house, themselves, but where rooms, only, are maintained, redecoration con. sists mainly of fresh c urtains and occasional new pictures or slip covers which are ordered from an interior decorator and placed in the house by a small committee. summer,

however, the members decided to do over the rooms completely-an d to do it themselves. Paint shades were soon decided on and each day members met to wield paint brsuhes. Interest and sorority spir it ran high. " I was furious last week when the painter said he co uldn't finish my room in a day, " one member remarked as she teetered atop a ladder , painting the cei ling , "but now I see how true that was." Drapery samples were obtained and discussed. Members learned that a certain material was better than another for slip covers, which designs made a room appear larger and what New Orlea ns stores carried the best lines of materials and household goods. Earnest members debated over the part of their budget from which they could best spare the money for the new lamp s they had decided to install. New pieces of furniture appeared; others were transformed by fresh covers. As the chapter worked , they discussed

fall rushing plans and out their schedule far .Mad of time. This fairs rushing season was one of the most successfuJ in years, because of the rooms rejuvenated apbut probably because rushing plans had been macfe and thoroughly discussed by all far in advance, and because Louisiana A had become a much more unified chapter.

Now one will not find a member carelessly dropping ashes or sandwiches. mayonnaise-

side down, on the Boor ; she remembers the hours spent on hands and knees to give that Roor its gloss. There are no tacks driven in the wall or smudgy fingerprints on the wood · work, for the girls take/ride in their handiwork and protect it. An wouldn't any member see that slip covers and pictures were kept straight if sbe had plan for, choose and place them?

OF DUTY TO PLEDGES

This is my .6.rst year as an active member of n B <1>, and, naturally, due to my inexperience as an active, the thoughts that are foremost in my mind in regard to the Fraternity are those thoughts concerning pledgeship.

A girl's first sorority experience is, in most cases, a bewildering stream of new adjustments. IT B <P stands far ahead of other national fraternities in seeking to smooth a pathway for pledges' adjustments. The organization of the/ledge class as a body with officers, rules, an governing power in thei r sphere; study and aid; the rela-

lionship of pledge and pledge mother; the dividing of house responsibilities between actives and pledges; and, above all, the freedom of the Pi Phi pledge from line meeting and harmful heckring-all of these form the basis for an almost ideal system . The one thing upon which su ccess of this system deis, of course, chapter sympathy and personal understanding of each pledge. It 's up to us to supply that and we can, since no one would be wearing the arrow had she not an excess of sympathy and understanding.

OF VALUES

Scenic railways are frightening affairs. I spent three terrifying minutes after being pushed into the red enamelled little car. At first we ca reened in the dark depths below the boardwalk and then quick like a flash, ascended the greatest climb. I began to feel a little funny-s haky perhaps, when I read the sign at the top of the hill ··Hold the hand rail - Hold your hats ." Naturally I had no hat; so I held twice as hard to the rail. The big dip wasn·t so bad-you see I had something secure to hold on to.

At that moment an idea struck me. I t is pretty important to have some one thing which you may be sure of-something to hold on to-when everything around appears quite shaky.

I am a junior and a member of quite a befuddled group-befuddled because many of the basic truths we staunchly believed in when we came to college have been struck at in economic and philosophy courses . We have attended citizenship meetings and realize that OUT institutions are not infallible as we once

Ihought they were. Yes, we have lost in some of our naive faiths - but we gamed so mething in return , something we can cou nt on and hold fast to.

We became members of II B q>. And why do we so firmly believe in this organiza. tion? Because Pi Phi has been time-tested for over seventy years. It is true other institutions have passed years in good standing; however, they are now tapering off in usefulness. But Pi Phi is not. It is an act ive organization, alert and capable of copi ng with today's problems. Therefore we ca n feel secure in the fact that it will continue stro ng for at least another seventy years. You see, the qualities Pi Phi is built upon - tradition, friendship, and loyalty are not tangible quali. ties which outsiders can corrupt. No, they are not tangible, but they can be reached by us through our hearts. We grasp them and cling to them They mean an awful lot to me, as I know they do to you. So let's hold tight. We really have something here

OF FRATERNITY ENTHUSIASM

We, as Pi .Beta Phis, Jearn during OUf (o llege years to appreciate the frat e rnal spirit that comes from hard work and cooperation, in the attempt to make our college c hapter superior to all others. Sometimes , however, we do not fully realize the national , unified force that is the real basis of our fraternity. This was brought home to me during the recent colonizat ion of a new Pi Phi chaptcr at DePauw University.

When we entered into compet itiv e ru sh ag3i nst eight other N.P.C. fraternities, alA ready well established, we were handicapped. Many of the Pi Phi actives and alumni there were meeting for the first time ; we were rushing in a borrowed house; we had nothing to offe r our potential pledges other than hard

work and charter membership in Pi Beta Phi. Yet the success of the week was tremendous. We pledged twenty lovely girls, all eager to help in the building of a fine new chapter. This can only mean one thing: that enthusiasm and organization displayed in n B <J? was g reat enough to overcome all handicaps I know that every Pi Phi who was there will always value her privi lege to have been a part of that tremendous inspirationa l for ce I t is in cases such as this , when we a re brought face to fa ce with the working power of the nation a l fraternity , that we really understand and ca n evaluate what Pi Beta Phi means.

EX CHANGES AND COLLEGE NOTES

&JiltJ by NITA DAY URMAN , MillneJ Ola A

This yeac's annual of fraternity men and women holding high office proves again that Greekletter societies provide the nation with its best leaders . From the President of the United States on down, the nation's outstanding figures are members of national fraternities. They include the President of the United States, 7 Supreme Court Justices, 42 United tates Senators, 7 Cabinet Members, 62 Representatives, 20 State Governors, and hundreds of others.

The Fratemity Month

A development on the California campus which has been of great value thus far and which promises to be of greater value in the future has been the initiation of an interf raternity and panhellenic journal, Tbe California Greek. Edited and managed by Greekletter people, this journal has had as its objective the representing to the outside public of the more constructive side of college life at California as contrasted with the tool iberal side which has received an undue amount of publicity in the student daily paper, The Daily Cali/omiall. The newly-installed dean of undergraduates , Hurford E. Stone, has been a staunch supporter of this step. which is merely an external manifestation of a new spirit of interfraternity cooperation that has grown up on the campus in the past two semesters.

In the formative days of college fraternities ) when fifty -man houses were undreamed of and many national organizations were as yet urtbor n , fraternities grew contentedly without effort. Now, however, with large h ouses, la rger membersh i ps, more chapters an d even dormitories enteri ng into the compet itio n , th e deman d for self-promotion becomes more acute, and the interfraternity handbooks are one answer to the challenge. To counteract the etreets of bad publicity in newspapers and magazines they need to be on a high plane and the evidence is that they are meeting the test.

Banta' s Greek Exchan ge

From the Rallie of ex: "When one

watches men at an interfraternity ball. vigorously chewing gum in time with the music, one often wonders what the word 'soc ial' implies when used in co nnection with the fraternity."

BanIa's Greek Exrbange

In t939 and t940 , ninety-six chapters of :,; A E inducted as members 284 blood relatives of! A E. In t940 and 1941 , ninety -o ne c hapters of the fraternity initiated exactly the same number of relatives, 284. This year there were two great grandsons, twelve grandsons, 114 so ns and 156 brothers.

BanIa's Greek Exchange

The Los Angeles Alumni Club of a y had the privilege of hearing at one of their dinner meetings this winter, not only Edgar Bergen, but also Rupert Hughes- a truly outstanding all Delta U program!

BanIa's Greek Exchange

The effect of the National Selective Service Act on University of Minnesota fraternities has been studied by a committee of the University Interfraternity Council and a survey of anticipated draft mortality.

The results showed that a reduction of 150 men in total fraternity membership was estimated This number was based on the draft status reports turned in.

By co nsidering losses due to scholastic and finan cia l causes it was figured that the probable range in membership will be from twelve to thirty -eight members in each chapter, with three groups expected to fall below twe l ve and three above thirty-eight. This will make an average of about twenty -s ix men in each fraternity.

Some statist i cal soul has figured out that there are 10,000 pieces of type in a newspa per column, seven possible positions for each letter, 70,000 chances to make errors. But misspell a name in a story and see how valuable such an explanation will be!

corded and is distributing the records to the chapter s. Th e recordings were made by Freddie Martin and his orchestra. The c ost to members is $1.00 for each - $4.00 for six . The e nterpri se was so successful that the first 1 , 000 records went too fast and a new cutting of 500 more is being made Garnet and JY/ hile

W E A GREE

Sometime ago we read somewhere, and we believe it was in The Fraternity Month , a co mplaint regarding the identifi ca tion of fraternity chapt e rs in the pages of the various fraternity magazines . ThiS complaint stated that while the Greek -letter name symholizing each chapter might mean something to those members who were well acquainted with their chapter roll, nevertheless, to those who were not members of the fraternity or to those who were members but had been out of college for a number of years and had failed to keep up with their chapters, it was a di s· tinct annoyanc e to have chapters so identified . Th is writer asked that the various magazine.;; make known the colleges, as well as the Greek -letter symhols, for each chapter mentioned in it s pages, for the sake of greater clarity.

It seemed to us that this was a log ical and justifiable complaint and one with which we ag reed perfectly, although we hadn ' t realized it before. However, thinking it over, we knew we had been mildly irritated many times in read ing over magazines other than our own, when we found a picture or article identified only by the chap ter name . Usually we simply passed it by without bothering to look up which college was meant , but it always left a fee ling of annoyance for not having known \Vhen we did bother to look up which chapter was conce rned , it left a feeling of even greater annoyance for the necessity of so doing.

Therefore. we hereby serve noti c e that sta rting with the last issue of the AdeJpheal1 that we sha ll hereafter adhere to the pol icy of identifying a ll with the Alpha Delta Pi name and also the name of the college. Adelphean

GREEKS HELP U S O

Univer sity of California fraterniti es a nd sororities have inaugurated a prog ram for the benefit of the men in army and navy training camps wh ic h by the time this material appears in print may be suggested throughout the country by military leaders to the Greek groups on other campuses. With cooperation of the nearby military camp authorities, army trucks are bringing a different selection of draftees and newly enlisted men to the Berkeley campus each week end who by advance arrangement are assigned as guests, in groups of seven, to each fraternity house for the duration of the week end. The sororities do their bit by entertaining ten army men and four fraternity men who accompany them at dinner each Sunday. Thus, th e Greek groups in time and expense are doing much more than the average in the U .S.O. program . Fraternity M omh

CONVENTION HI GHLIGHTS

Kappa Delta at Swampscott Inn adopted a revised constitution - ten provi nees instead of se ven- and decided to replace the term of "rushing" to "me mbership se lectio n " as far as possible.

An exhib it of Vocations and Avocations high lighted the Alpha Xi Delta Convention at Troutdale, Colo.

Phi Omega Pi established an Alumn", Service Rew ard. They also de cided that th e badge of a deceased member be returned to the National Executive Secretary to be held in trust to be rei ssued to a relative of the deceased.

Fraternity, democracy and servi ce. was th e the theme of Theta Ups ilon 's triennial Con· vention at Grove Park Inn this past summer.

Zeta Tau Alpha at their convention at the Edgewater Gulf Hot el, Mi ss ., adopt ed new terminology for their offi cers . H ereafter there will be National Offi ce rs-not Greek Officers and "co llege" chapters will repla ce "act iv e" chapters. They felt that the word active im · plied that members out of college became inactive.

Alpha Chi Omega conv."tion made plans for their alumrue club bouse which is to be called "The Homestead ."

Ed Murrow of the Columbia Broadcasting Company has been selected as Kappa Sigma's "Mao of the Year." His "This is London" salutation is familiar to us all.

Wbile the Beekman Hill Unit of tbe American Women's Voluntary Services, un · der the chairmanship of Mrs. Edward L. McKendrew, of n B is training its members, at its headquarters at Beekman Tower, for service in case of any emergency which may arise. another group of New ,York fraternity women, The Fraternjty Women's Committee, headed by Miss Beatrice Louise Ecks, also of n B <l>, is doing its part by helping to entertain service men stationed in the city.

The Committee forms a part of the College and University Women's Center, which is composed also of the various college and university alumnz clubs of Greater New York , and devotes its efforts to a Volunteer Place· ment Bureau for women in defense work and to sponsoring entertainment for men in all the armed forces.

W esleyan Conservatory. "When restored," says the Adelphean, "it will be recognized as the oldest secret society for college women." In the restoration they are fortunate to have a member who in detail how it was furnished. Mrs. Richard Burden who became an Adelphian in 1869 was married in the old parlor and describes the old horse hair sofa, the marble topped table, /lowered Brussels carpet and the old secr<tary where they kept their "secrets."

Alpha Delta Pi offers nine fellowships to outstanding members of a year of graduate work. Their aim is to secure a fund of $100,000 for this purpose to com memorate their hundredth anniversary in 1951.

Alpha Delta Pi has over one hundred student loan funds in active use.

In February, the Fraternity Women's Com· mittee gave a tea dance and open house for service men in the ballroom of the Beekman Tower Hotel , which was attended by women from the entire Metropolitan area. Miss Sophie P Woodman , of II B <1>, was a member of the committee in charge.

Navy Nurses

As our Navy builds up its fighting stre ngth, more women will be needed in the Navy Nurse Corps to guard the health of the service And that means more girls, well-qualified by education and personal ability, to enter the profession of nursing, so they can r elease the graduate nurses and prepare for their responsible positions . This is what Rear Admiral Ross T. McIntire , Surgeon General of the United States Navy, says:

"With the tremendous expansion of the Navy to a two·ocean size, the necessity for personnel of all kinds will naturally be very great. To this need the nursing professio n will also, I believe, naturally respond. Nursing always offers great oppot!"unities for service and never more than at present, when the nation 's armed forces need the assistance of every person in the country . I strongly urge . qualified young women to consider nursing as a career."

Mrs. Arthur B. Cockrum (Luta Davis, Oregon A) was appointed Defense Chairman. She abo _15 elected to be: II B 4> Panhellenic representative. Mn.

More money is made and dinner at six-thirty is better than dessert at eight.

ARain this vear recognition pins will be awarded by t he Long Beach Club to the girls in the two nearest chapters who have shown the greatest improvement in grades.

The February board meeting was held the twentyfourth and there was much comment about the hostess blackout curtains and if they were reallv needed. That question was very definitely settled with the pauing of at least fifteen fnreign phnes over Long Beach. It was stated in the papers and over the radios on the twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth that imaginations were working overtime: but now it is admitted planes were really the object of all the antiaircraft fire It was thrilling but too dose for comfort.

Since the outbreak of war we have been unable to have our reaular scheduled medinas. The few in San Luis Obispo have ,otten together and Red Cross sewina on our mcctm, days, but due to military convoys on the highway it was best to give up for the bme beinl' meetinl of the two ,roups.

We are very proud 9f our subscriptions. The credit for our cxtllordma,., showms: I, due to the efforts of ou r malszine chairman, Mariolle Hall.

We hope to have a ioint meeting durin8 _ the month of March to be held at the home o( Mrs. Thomas.
