EDITORIALS

The Path of Peace

Strangely appropriate is it that Pi Beta Phi 's first Convention since the close of the war should be held at Swampscott, On the road once called by the Indians the "Path of Pea ce"-symbolic now of the road we must tread in reconstructing a world crushed cruelly into ruin by the most devastating war of all previous times. Ours is the responsibility of privileged women to follow that path of peace with courage and hardihood, yet with deep humility and with full realization of the burden resting on women today , American women (and this means Canadian too) and especially American college women should shoulder their responsibilities gladly, happy in the knowledge that their land has been spared devastation of war, and that their colleges have heen saved for the development of the lead ersh,/, ' so necessary on this side of the Atlantic, if our political institutions are to survive, and i that precious "American Way of Life" is to keep as before its standards high, its purpose clear.

In June at our Convention there must be serious discussion and wi se action on the future course of our Fraternity in a changing world. Pi Beta Phi has come out of the war stronger in rna · tangible things than ever before--now . it is for us to set our course towards increasing strength in the intangible things which lie at the heart of any fraternity, We must hold fast to the principles which have come down from our Founders, while at the same time making only such changes as are necessary for progress and advancement, never changes for the sake of novelty alone.

Let us sit down together and consider these things when we meet- let us make our delibera· tions not only a "Pat h of Peace," but a bright hope for the future .

Uda Burkhard Lardner

Pi Beta Phi lost a former officer who was always an active worker in alumna! aHairs in the death on May 21, of Lida Burkhard Lardner, Colorado B, Grand Vice·President from 1912 to 191) , a time of interesting development in the Fraternity . In 1913 Mrs , Lardner presided over a conference of Grand Council and delegates from alumn., clubs, the first of its kind-a meeting without power to take legislative action. but from which came recommendations on which increased alum"", strength was based, and which laid the groundwork for our present closely · knit alumn., organization. Mrs. Lardner presided over the important alumn., session of Con· vention in Berkeley in 191:;, when many of these recommendations were adopted as part of the constitution. She retained always a strong interest in her a1umn., club, and besides was prominent in her home community of Evanston, where her husband, Professor James L. Lardner, is on the faculty of Northwestern University, and where Mrs. Lardner was also active in the University Guild, the League of Women Voters, the National Board of the Y W.CA., and in the Metho · dist Church .

The Editor regrets that the original notices of Mrs . Lardner's death never reached ber, so this comes as tardy recognition of her fine service to Pi Beta Phi and of the regret that the Fraternity feels at .her passing. In her memory Illinois Epsilon chapter and the North Shore a1= club are raising a scholarship which will hear her narne Mrs. Lardner's daughter is also a member of Colol1ldo B , Jean Lardner Haelsig .

To Alumnae

Again we have in this issue a rushing recommendation. Please use it with care and thought , recommending to chapters only girls wbo are really desirable material, and send on the blank as accurate information as possible as to the girl's scholarship, activities, and background Cooperation between a1umn., and chapters never hears finer fewt than in this perennial affair of rushing. Lists of chapter rush chairmen are given also, as well as college opening dates, the latter an innovation which has heen asked for. Decide early what girls you wish to caII to the attention of chapters, co ntact your alWJlll3! dub rushing recommendation committee, send in ree · ommeodation by blank and letter-and then as we've said so often before, let's hope for the best, and be good sports about the results!

Corresponding Secretaries Attention

Please send ARRow material to the proper person! For this issue, ten chapter letters came to the Editor of the ARROW instead of to the chapter letter editor whose name appears on the staff page of every issue; two alumnae letters came to the Editor instead of to Mrs. Weir; many alumnae personals came to the Editor, and had to be forwarded to Central Office, where all such notices and the In Memoriam noti ces should go. The linest system of handling these things (and we think ours is good) can work only if all correspondents follow it-so please note carefully the dates and destination of all material. Above all, use correct addresses-much mail is being lost these days, so help us keep the percentage of loss down.

Have you made your reservation yet? Use the blank in this issue - and be sure to come!

THE LAST PIONEER

To Our Founders 1867

Great victors on whose brows the laurel wreath Is l'laced, symbolic of outstanding worth, WID lasting fame among the sons of earth By love, not hy a sword drawn from its sheath

You saw a nation warring underneath Two banners, reunited with the birth Of tolerance. Your girlhood faced no dearth Of problems which such wars alike bequeath. New portals then were swinging wide for all. A broader, fuller life for womankind Became your dream. Devotion to life's call Received love's crown but your triumphant mind Still wings its flight in search of larger spheres.

EsTHER FRIEDLANDER, MinneJoJa A

Cor r ec t ion

I n error it was reported m the March ARRow that Miss Onken attended the meeting of the Illinois Deans of Women representing NPC--it should have read instead "representing Pi Beta Phi:'

"Omaha Nebraska had a magazine contest within its own club. Mrs. Dan Gross, the member selling the most subscriptions in one month was given a $10.00 jewelry store gift certificate by the club president, Mrs. Combs She also presented Mrs Phil Heflin, general magazine chairman for Omaha with a $15.00 jewelry store gift certificate."

"I'LL BUY THAT DREAM"

AT LONG last, another of our Pi Phi dreams is coming true-and we're taking orders on it!

You, too, can get in the swing and the sing. Yes, it's the new Song Book- a brand new edition of the wine and blue songs we all Jove, plus some origtnals which have never appeared in a Pi Phi Song Book.

That's not all! In addition to the melodies and lyrics so familiar to us, there will be loads of arrangements for group singing, so that Pi Phis all over the country really will be singing in harmony.

Here are just a few of the many songs to be included: "My Pi Phi Girl," "Arrow So Golden ," "The Anthem," "Pi Phi Tribute," "Ocean to

The ocean is at the front door all ready for that dip in the Atlantic you have always hoped you might have some day. but we must warn you it will be (old water! At the hotel there are tennis courts, a golf course, and plenty of opportunity for that game of bridge you just can ' t get along without! Notices will be posted as to the various events offered, just waiting for you to sign up for them. It will be necessary to sign up for any of the sight-seeing tours by Monday noon .

Don't forget that costume for the Thursday night parade and dinner- beautiful , gorgeous, funny or just plain hilarious! We can't telJ you yet just which will take a prize or come in for honorable mention!

Last but not least-" What shall I wear?"always a question when women get together! ports clothes for daytime wear, one afternoon dress, one dinner or evening dress which will serve for all formal dinners, will be quite adequate. The costume for Thursday and the bathing suit if you are courageous! Evenings may be cool, and when the east wind blows from the sea a coat will be needed . In New England we have all sorts of weather, and Mark Twain was prompted to remark that if you don't like the kind you have, wait a few minutes and another kind will come.

Ocean," " The Symphony," "Follow The Arrow," "Speed Thee My Arrow," "Sweetheart Song," " Ring Ching Ching," "Loving Cup Song," " H er Arms Extending "-a nd many others which you voted to have arranged for the new edition. You'll like them all!

You'll see a sample copy of the Song Book at Convention this June-and we hope that by fall every chapter will have new additions to its Pi Phi library in the form of the complete, up-to-date, brand new Pi Phi Song Book!

Is there anyone who won'J buy dream?

Pioneer Promenaders

Denver University

B, PEGGY MELZER, Colorado Bt!ta

THE Pioneer Promenaders is a group of students interested in carrying on the old -time westtrn square and round dances . The organization was started in 1934, and has been active ever since. Our slogan really should be, "Once a Promenader, always a Promenadec," for membership does not end with graduation from college; the alums also have a group which meets regularly, and participates with the active group once a month.

While he dances the old-time dances, the youth of today dances his own interpretation of the old ligure in a style all his own. Since the youth of today does nothing else in the style of years ago, it would be unreasonable to expect him to dance in the style of 50 years ago Out here in the West this grace and freedom of movement js calIed "western" or "cowboy style." The calls and lingo or pattern of the caller are in the vernacular of the ranger or the miner, which makes them very different from the calls of other parts of the country and therefore very interesting. The Promenaders present this generation's interpretation of the old-time dances.

WESTERN DRESS

The girls wear the pioneer style of dress, the long full skirt which swings out in a graceful manner in the dance. The boys wear bright colored shirts and neckerchiefs, cowboy trousers and boots and look very handsome. The brand on their trousers is the "swinging square:'

Four music combinations of different instru· ments are used, the most widely used being piano, fiddle, banjo, or accordion.

Out of the twenty·nine active members, six· teen of whom are girls, there are eight Pi Beta Phis. The Pi Phis are also well-represented as officers:

Norma Moe-Vice·President

Peggy Mdzer-Secretary

Connie Peters-Historian

Other Pi Phi members include:

Lutie Carter

Margaret Clark

Betty Lou Brayden

NanryNye

Nanry Ward, all Colorado B.

The alum club has quite a large number of Pi Phis, as well.

For many years now the Pi Phis have seemed to be the most interested in joining this wellknown group. and as members, have been out· standi ng both in dance ability and in leadership.

The Promenaders have participated in the National Folk Festival in the years 1940, 1942, and 1944, earning their expenses along the way by giving demonstrations.

We are now making plans to attend this year's folk festival to which we have been invited in Oeveland, Ohio

Marjorie Chalmers, R.N.

In December 1936, Marjorie Chalmers came to Pi Beta Phi and Gatlinburg as the new Public Health Nurse. She brought with her a wide field of experience having received her training at the Eitel Hospi tal, Minneapolis, Minnesota. She was later medical and su.rgical nurse there. She had experience in family relief and child welfare work Her training in

}'lfarjori, Chalmers

kindergarten and teacher work has better equipped her for the splendid seevice she has rendered to Gatlinburg and the surrounding community.

Marjorie, as we all know ber, is beloved by all. Sbe has a remarkable knaCk with people. Her patience, tact and tirelessness have paved the way to trust and love. She is constantly on the go administering aid to tbe sch"91 personnel as well as those of the community-which extends for miles arouod up the "aiclcs and hollers." She has faithfully carried on the work for ten years and knows most of the mountain folic and their troubles.

All phases of her wock ace important. In addition to ministering to the siele, sbe bas made tremendous strides in preventive measures. A well baby clinic held weekly has improved in-

fant health . She makes periodic school inspections, not only in Gatlinburg, but in thirteen rural schools as · well. She conducts classes in First-Aid , Home Nursing, Bedside Nursing, Prenatal Care, Infant Welfare and gives advice and inst.ructions .

For many years " Miz ClIalmers " has felt the need of a new health center in order to carry on mo re efficiently the work she is doing for us. Her ac companying art ide reveals the need for th e new building

The Health Center Serves

No g roup of people are in a position to speak more authoritatively on the work of our Health Cen te r than the res id ents of Gatlinburg and the mountain folk from the surrounding territory , to whom the Health Center and its staff have been physician , hospital , medical guide, training school and fir st aid center. Gatlinburg people have come to depend on the service we have provided for them

A series of their own letters Dot only express their appreciation but also provide an interesting description of the work done by the Health Cente r and the need for the new facilities

The P.T.A. President

Mrs J. B Donohoe, President of the Gatlinburg Parent Teachers Organization has seen the improvement in pupil health which bas resulted in more effective school work. She writes:

" It is Our understanding that plans are being made by the Pi Beta Phis for a new Health Center in Gatlinburg

"Of all the many things that your sorority has done for the school and community here, we feel that the Health Center is the most essential and important. It has kept down disease and saved the lives of many children and people here . Mrs. Q13lmers, your Resident Nurse, is most capable and without her and the Health Center, the poorer class of people would be deprived of medical attention. In a new, better equipped, larger building, she will be able to give them much better care They depend upon her solely and ber sympathy, understanding and efficiency have made her most valuable to them. Words cannot express the wonderful work that has been done along this line, and we will ever be grateful and thankful to Pi Beta Phi for what they have done and are planning on doing in the future.

" If we can be of any ass is t ance to you at any time, please do not hesitate to call upon us "

A Settlement School Graduate

Mrs . Grace Huff has lived in Gatlinburg aU her life-as have her parent s and her grandparents before her . As a child she was enrolled in the Settlement School and is one of our graduates Her knowledge of the H e alth Center comes from long associ ation and pers onal benefit.

" I am very proud to h ave thi s opportunity to e xpress my grat itud e f or wha t the Health Center has done for our small town .

"To me the Health Center has always stood for dependability in case of sickness, accident and other emergencies . Beginning with my birth when the nearest Doctor was 6fteen miles away and had no means of transportation except by horseback , it was the nurse from the Health Center who arrived before the Doctor and ushered me into the world thirty minutes before the Doctor arrived.

"In the following years it was the nurse who gave my various immunization shots. When I was in an auto accident it was the nurse who carried me into the nearest town and hel ped the Doctor set my broken collar bone and my arm which was thrown out of place.

"When my own daughter arrived the nurse had everything in readiness when the Doctor arrived. It was the nurse who taught me to bathe the baby and dress her and helped with her diet and gave her immunization shots. When the baby developed a rash the nurse suggested the cause and a treatment which immediately deared up the rash.

"For others as well as myself our sincere appreciation for the help of the Health Center and our hopes for its continued success."

MRS. GRACE HUFF

A Gatlinburg Pi Phi

Pauline Whaling Huff is a graduate of Monmouth College, and a member of Illinois Alpha, Pi Beta Phi . She carne to Gatlinburg as a teacher in the Settlement School in 19 32, and taught until her marriage to Jack Huff in the Spring of 1934 . She has two children, Philip Andrew, aged 10, a student at Pi Beta Phi &hool, and Dorothy Ellen, aged just two Mrs Huff is active in civic affair s, and in the Methodist

OlUrch She and her family speod the summers on top of Mt. Le Conte, running the famous I.e Conte Lodg e. Mrs . Huff tell, us what the Health Cmtec has meant to the en t ire community :

" It' , so different looking from the outside into a room, thac sitting in that room looking at the same things . Yau see so much more from th e insid......." peaally the little things that can make a world of differen ce in the p icture.

" That ' , the way we who live in Gatlinburg fee l about the Health Center. There's so much in the day-to -day contact with the "Nurse" and the " Hospital" that anyone away from here could not know or feel. To all of us who have smaIl children , or any illness in the home, she represents a " friend in need" at all times . If the illness is small , her suggestions counsel us. If lacge, her bdpfulness and assuran ce tid e us ovec until a doctor can come.

"The Home Nursing couCSts are invaluable . Every bome -maker needs to know bow to care for sick members of her family at home. Where else, bere, could such courses be available except through the Health Center? There's still so much to be done in Preventive Medicine that no one else has time to do, or can do as well. Personally, 1 wish that the nurse had an assistant or two to do the office routine, while she concentrates on teaching, visiting, and school work.

"This is a large county, with a small income Much of the tanble land has heen taken into the Pack, and because of indefinite plans for a State Highway, businesses that would have been a source of income have not heen built. This leaves only a small amount of money to spread a long way. The number of people who are engaged in business in Gatlinburg are a very small minority of the people served by the Health Center.

"The need for a new building is very apparent. The work to be done in all the highways and byways is manifold, and the lives reached and bdped are many.

"Looking fcom the inside, and feeling our need, we, the beaeficiaries of such good work done in the pray for its continuance in the future."

The Last of the Granny Women

Large families are common in the Tennessee Mountain area. and wben a new baby comes it often must be introduced to the world with-

out the assistao ce of • doctor. This was true, even i n a greater degree twenty years ago when roads near Gatlinburg were unimproved and doctors were as scarce and overworked as they now are. At that t ime, Miss Phyllis Higinbotham, our first nurse, trained a class of midw ives to assist her in obstetrical cases. Etta Brown is the last of th ese " G ranny Women " trained by Mi ss Ph ylli s_ During her long years of service, she was faithful and most helpful . Her patients were never known to develop an infection. Her work is now ended and her pleasant ways in the sirk room are being missed - but she continues loyal and interested in the work of the Health Center . Sbe writes :

" Dearest Nurse . If 1 have given you anything that will help, take it, please. If you copy any of this, copy It right- l can't write letters like they should be.

" When 1 was a little girl, 1 started out to make my way by staying with people, and minding babies, was sometimes my job . So 1 started off minding them like this They told me if they cried to give them a sugar-tit. The way 1 made them was , I got a white doth and tied up a lump of sugar, and dipped the end of it in water to get th em to nursing So that is the way 1 minded them When they were born they would give them milk and coffee mixed, till their mother could furni sh them milk.

"While they were in bed some mothers were afraid to take a bath and put on dean dothes Some women would have me smoke their dothes with com meal bran before they put them OQ.

"Later on, 1 started out with my own familynot knowing how- and got part of my family on the way. Miss Phyllis came in to Gatlinburg to help in the school. She started us all put the right way on her plans, so we got along much better, with our little ones. So I will never forget her.

" She planned a dass for us women-(midwives) -and got doctors to come to the hospital and help ber with our lessons, on how to take care of women and babies So then I started out helping doctors And sometimes it was just me to do the best 1- knew how . I have heen helping in this work for several years

" Now 1 am getting old, and my health is had . 1 can't hdp no more . I hope the good work will go on for the younger people Will you please help our good nurse to carry on the good work for the sake of our li ttle ones that are still coming on?

"I have been one of the school weavers for many years, till the doctors told me to quit-it

"(1./) f7 " c::J..i{e j evening

MRS. W. C. BROWN

was too hard for me. I am the mother of seven children and live near the Gatlinburg school. I have spent a lot of my time giving baths to women and babies, and bave caught sixty-three babies or more. I wish our good. nurse could get a new hospital. She needs more room and help to take care of us here ."

Pictures used in this department are by Dorotby Mclean, Gatlinburg, Tenn

In the very near future. our dreams and those of our friends will come true with the construction of the new Health Center . The Committee and Grand Council are now studying plans for tbe new structure and as soon as tbese are agreed upon and workmen and materials are available for construction, tbe building will be started .

Connie Carey a Bride

The old House was aglow-shaded lights, Bickering candJes, lovely Bowers, soft musIC, and the gay voices of two hundred guests. The one.hundred-and-seven-year-old Holt portraits smiled their blessing upon the attractive couple standing near the bride's table with its tiered cake, white roses and chrysanthemums.

The occasion was the reception which followed the marriage of Connie Carey (Illinois Alpha) to Lieutenant Daniel C. Pelton of Mont ice llo , New York. The ceremony was per-

formed at the Second United Presbyterian church at three o'clock in the afternoon on October 4, 1945.

Connie was the second Holt House bride. As the daughter of Mrs . C. C. Carey, popular Holt Howe receptionist, the House was her home throughout the four years during which she attended Monmouth college. As a student she brought many honors to Illinois Alpha chapter. A Fine Arts major, and the possessor of a lovely soprano voice, she took part in many local programs. Last spring she was chosen " Miss America " in "The &an-Dolls of 1945:·

She was also elected May Queen at the college. It was on the Monmouth college campus that Connie and Dan lirst became acquainted. A member of Theta 01i fraternity, he served as chapter president during his senior year. After graduation, in 1943, he attended the Midshipman School at Notre Dame universityJ where he was commissioned an ensign. For eighteen months he served aboard the submarine U.S.S. Cobia in the Pacific. He returned to the United States just a week before the wedding.

Throughout the past winter, Connie and Dan have been at home in MonticelJo , New York. Mrs. Carey had the pleasure of visiting them there during the Christmas holidays.

To Connie-a very special Pi Phi bride-go all the good wishes of the fraternity. May she never cease to think of Holt House as her "other home." And may she always find a welc ome there!

A Goal Achie ved

"Holt House is fast becoming the favorite meeting place in Monmouth aod Warren County '" Monmouth is fortunate in having such a Houser·

The above quotations are typical of remarks which are constantly being heard in the Monmouth community. They are the fraternity's assuraoee that the House has achieved its liveyear goal-to serve, and to serve widely!

Throughout the war years contributions were low. Funds were never adequate to complete the furnishing of the House Yet the co=unity was in genuine need of an attractive adaptable for meetings and social gatherings. Graod Council aod the Holt House co=ittee agreed that it would be wrong for the House to stand idle at a time when everyone in America was being called upon to do his utmost wherever needed. (At that time the actives aod the alumnae were the only ones enjoying the use of the rooms. )

Accordingly, certain patriotic groups were welcomed. A Red Cross knitting group met regularly in the Pine Room. No fee was charged. Then approved organizations were invited to use the House for meetings and parties. The amount of the fee was determined by the size of the group and the facilities which it required. These invitations were readily accepted and the use of the House has increased each year. During the live-month period from October /irst to March first the House was engaged forty-four tinaes. (The Monmouth A1unanae dub used the House three times, lllinois Alpha chapter eight tinaes,

and otJ,ler organizations and individuals thirtythree times.

Pi Phis will be interested to know that regular users of the House include these representative women's organizations: A.A.U.W ., D .A .R., P.E.O., Monmouth Women's Club, Warren County Women 's Club, Junior Women's Club, Beta Sigma Phi, Business and Professional Women's Club, Garden Club, Book Club Women's Missionary Group, and Campus Club (an organization of faculty women).

It is not the poliey of the committee to accept reservations from men's organizations . How . ever, an exception was made recently when three of the leading men's fraternities asked permission to use the House for rush parties. They were still unable to obtain possession of their own houses, and no other place was available to them. Pi Phi was g lad to help in the emergeney.

Choosing a Gift

The Holt House committee was in a quandary . It had been given the choice of any item in a collector's collection. All of the items were lovely. And all of them were different. It would have been difficult to choose for one's seli, but si nce the choice was to go into Holt House, the decision was important.

Displayed in two rooms were European fashion prints from the early and mid-nineteenth century. The prints were of hand-colored steel engravings. There were sturdy German frauleins peering through the lenses of upraised opera glasses, vivacious French belJes resting during an interlude at a ball, cool English maidens strolling in a park. Whether the su bjects were German , French, English, Italian, or Spanish , amusing national characteristics could be discerned in facial features, postures, situations, and backgrounds . In one set of six pictures, groups of old-faced children played forgotten games with hoops and tops and dolls. Only one of the prints bore the date of 1867. It was this determined the committee's choice. The print is from La Mode llJustree aod the two costumes illustrated are demure "daytime dresses" in vivid green and equally vivid blue. The two women look very much as the Founders looked in their photographs. A wide mat and a narrow carved gilt frame have been selected for the framing.

The collector and donor, Eloise Bilyeu Dibble (Mrs. Earl L.), Oregon Beta, a member of the Kansas City Alumnae Club. Her name goes into the gift book.

Gifts Recorded

Emily Wood Hubble (Mrs. William F.), the Decatur, lllinois member of the Holt House committee, has completed prepaution of the gift book, a blue and gold affair with ribbon markers, listing the names of the donors of all objects which have been given or lent to the House

From the listings in the gift book Jean Lingenfdter Moore (Mrs Herbert A.), Kansas Beta, will letter the framed cards which are to be placed in each room.

The Silver Tea Service

In these days of rising commodity prices and uncompromising excise taxes, Holt House needs, of all things, a silver tea service!

When the House was restored, a number of lovely and useful items from the Monmouth

residence of Dr. and Mrs. J. M. Jamieson were placed in the House. The Jamieson borne had been occupied by the family from 1863 until the death of Mrs Jamieson'S daughter, Miss Katherine Manchester, in 1938. The Jamieson items were loaned to the House through the courtesy of Roger Mills Jamieson and Ida Jamieson Matthias, Wash inron Alpha, (grandson and grand-daughter 0 Dr. and Mrs. Jamieson), and their respective daughters, Mrs. Hugh Williams (Mary Louise Jamieson), Washington Alpha, and Marian Amelia Matthias, Washington Alpha . The committee is sincerely grateful for the interest shown by the Jamieson heirs.

Recently, a Victori an silver tea service, on ce the property of Mrs . Jamieson, was withdrawn from the House. The committee would like to replace the service as soon as possible. Has the fraternity a friend who would like to come to its assistance with the gift or the loan of a silver tea service?

50th Anniversary of Massachusetts Alpha

MASSACHUSEITS ALPHA chapter of Pi Beta Phi observed its fiftieth anniversary on March 8 with open house from 3:30 to ':30 P.M at the home of the active chapter, 131 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston . Members of the facuIty of Boston University, representatives from other fraternities and ovec one hundred Massachusetts Alpha Pi Beta Phis enjoyed tea, with the actives as host esses.

At 6:30 P .M. one hundred and deven Massachusetts Alphas assembled for a buffet supper at the College Club, 40 Commonwealth Avenue. Wine carnations and blue Beur-dc-lis gave a distinctive Pi Phi accent and a birthday cake cut by one of the charter members and the newest initiate, was a feature of the occasion.

The anniversary program arranged by Sarah Pomeroy Rugg and her able committee of twelve Pi Phis from the Massachusetts Alpha Association living in and around Greater Boston and representing all periods of chapter life from 1896 to the present time, was most successful.

Olive Gilchrist, one of the charter members, gave verbal snapshots of the individual founders of the chapter with apt anecdotes and remarks about each. A stream-lined history of the

chapter and its activities with statistics and personal touches of humorous mold, made the evening outstanding. Special mention was made of the gracious hospitality of Anna Robinson Nickerson who for forty consecutive summers has entertained all Pi Beta Phis who were in the vicinity, at her summer home at Rock Island.

Violin and piano duets, and fraternity song. set the right reminiscent note Greetings from New York Alpha which had recently observed its own 'Oth anniversary; from Ermine Pollard, our Alpha Province Vice-President, and many messages from distant Pi Phis were received. A substantial sum in birthday gifts came from some who could not be present. 11. message was sent from Massachusetts Alpha Association to Mrs. Joseph R Taylor, the only living patroness of the early days of the chapter.

At the conclusion of the festivities, the meeting was turned over to Helen Richardson Corkum, our newly appointed Convention Guide and an enthusiastic pre-ConventioD rally took place under her leadership. Plans for recreation and fun as well as a program for progress in our fraternity life insures an unusually strong Convention at Swampscott

RHODA WATKIN S and Eda B. Frost, Y our Sptech and Mine , Lyons and Carnahan, 363 pp .

As explained by the authors in their preface, "This book is offered in the hope that American students will realize their obligation to themselves and to their country to speak her language c1earlv. pleasantly, exactly, and effectively." In behalf of that purpose Your S ptech and Mine covers all the uses of the spoken word from the informal, conversational variety to that of formalized debating and devotes considerable attention to the specialized fields of radio, theater and recordings as they bear upon the function of the human voice.

Miss Watkins and her colleague, Mrs. Frost, being pioneers in speech instruction, had a wealth of personal experience from which to draw, and as a consequence their book is filled with practical information, data which ca n be used with equal success in the classroom and by the individual in the processes of selfinstruction. In addition to providing the whys and hows of good speech, they have supplied exercises which enable the student to put the theory into actual practice.

Apart from the mechanics of speech the book also cove rs factors co ntributing to wellround ed, good speech such as vocabulary, etiquette, pronunciation, and subject matter for prepared speeches. In the discussion of dramatics, for example, it even goes into the fields of make-up, the stage set and play production. Thus, there is material to interest and inform virtually any type of read e r.

Adding to the effectiveness of the presentation are the careful and extremely dear diagrams, which expedite comprehension and mastery, and the photographic illustrations, which co ntribute to the attractiveness of the book as well as aidi ng the explanation.

For persons who expect to use their voices as career tools Your Speech and Mine should be invaluable. For all others, if given the opportunity, it could contribute immeasurably to social accomplishment. A beautiful, effectively handled voice qn charm away a homely face as rapidly as an unpleasant, lazily used voice

can destroy an illusion.

AUTHOR INTEREST: A Pi Phi member of the George Washington University Chapter, Rhoda Watkins received both her A.B. and M A. from that university and has been head of the Department of English in McKinley High School, Washington , D.C. , for the past ten years. The co-author, Eda Briggs Frost, was graduated from Goucher College where she was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. Miss Watkins has been active in the Washington Pi Phi Alumn", Club since her graduation from college, being its president from 1924 \0 1926 Currently she is chairman of the R ecommendations Committee and, in addit ion, has served as chairman of the high school section of the Curriculum Committee for the city schools and as pres ident of the High Schoo l Teachers' Association of the city. Indicative of its value, the book has already been adopted by the Washington and Baltimore schoo l s.

RANDOM NOTES: Pi Phis who read the versatile magazine, lV oman's Day, should have noted the name of Esther Chapman Robb (Mrs. Walter C.), who has written a variety of s hort stories and articles for that publication and others. The most recenLeffort of th e University of Minnesota graduate appeared in the January, 1946, issue of American H ome. Another, "Happiness to Lend!" concerning assisting children to become good citizens, was published in a recent Woman's Day. Mrs Robb, who is the mother of three sons and a daughter, terms her writing a side-li ne to her homemaking. In cidentally, she recently became a grandmother, the baby's mother being Jeao Richardson Robb, a Minnesota Alpha Pi Phi.

A different form of writing talent is that of Virginia Lennox, Syracuse '28, who, under the name of Gloria Gordon, ha s written the lyri cs to a recently published song, "Just When I Needed You Most_" Miss Gordon has also had seve ral poems published in " Poets Anthology of Verse." The song writer now lives in Olittenango, N.Y.

Another poet is Anne T. Harding, Michigao Beta, 1910, who has had poetry published during the past year in The Villager, Blue Moon, and Wings. An article of hers, "The Conventions of Poetry," appeared in the DaHas , Texas, Pim1acle last fall.

Representing another field, that of journalism, is Florence Green Taylor (Mrs. Roy Le Grande), Texas Beta, and now a member of the Dallas Alum"", Club, who is on the regular staff of reviewers for the Book News Section of the Dallas Times-Herald_

We Hear Again from Anne Guthrie, Colo. Beta, YWCA General Sec.

Today is my birthday. Today I begin a new year and am enroute to a new adventure. So I'm dedicating a part of this day, Dear Friends Everywhere, to you, whom I have woefully neglected in the last two years. Now I shall try to bring you up to date with the wanderings of the Guthries.

In a folder marked "D. F.E." are the beginnings of at least a dozen epistles, evidence that you have not been forgotten; evidence that each unusual and unique situation that has arisen, I have wanted to share with you. but alas, also evidence of how many good intentions never materialize.

So now on the deck of the steamer which is carrying me to Australia, I want to try to go back and pick up the threads and see if I can weave them into a chain that will again link us with you.

Life has been so full, it is hard to remember what was crowded into the years since last you heard from me. I had such a lovely idea for your Christmas in 1943. I plotted it out on my little houseboat "Sunflower" up on Dal Lake where, in April and May of that year, a dream came true, a dream of some day visiting the Vale of Kashmir . Six wonderful weeks! Three of them in a room under the eves in an attractive boarding house called " River View" and the other three divided between houseboat "New Museum" and houseboat "Sunflower." I could not be a museum piece the entire time and in the end liked being a garden flower better.

It was my lirst real holiday in India and I went off all by myself to rest a very weary body, and refresh a very jagged spirit. I planned to write the story of those lovely weeks, have it printed, and make it my greeting to you, but like so many of my good ideas, it was started but never finished. Had it been written, it would have told you of rose sunrises on the eternal snows; of sunsets of bronze on the blue waters of the lake of a "shakara," (the little boats which carry one so smoothly from place to place, paddled by four or live skilled oarsmen) ; of glorious £lowers that each morning came to my door in long narrow boats to tempt me to redecorate my wee house for the day; of sweets and nuts, embroideries and carved wood, bammered copper and ancient brass, paper mache boxes and hand painted lamps ; Kashmir shawls and Tibetan jewelry, all of which arrived by boat in an endless procession.

It would have told you of blue Kingfishers and lovely long tailed white Paradise Fly Catchers, and ever so many other birds of my little

island of the poplar trees where "Sunflower" was moored; of my artist neighbour who added companionship to my days; of the times we spent exploring together, stopping at beauty spots for him to paint and for me to read o-r write; of hours I spent alone under the great tall pines on mountain sides, and by the lovely ponds and flower beds of ancient Mogul gardens. In fact, it would have been a rhapsodr of beauty and loveliness; of rest and refreshment, blended into a never to forgotten holiday, in spite of a world at war. Perhaps some day I will write of Kashmir, for some day I shall return. Of that I am certain.

The year of 1943 ' ended with the highlight of my career in India, our National Quadrennial Conference at Lucknow, when delegates arrived from north and south, east and west and we lived through a week of discussions and decisions, inspiration and fellowship. Tsai Kwei, the National. General Secretary of China, flew over the HImalayas, and Jean Begg of the British War Services in the Middle East flew down from Cairo, to share their experiences with us. But the highlight for me and the event significance to the National Association in the years ahead, was the day when, in a very beautiful and very simple ceremony in front of the chapel of Isabelle Thoburn College, where the conference was held, I passed on the light to Miss Sosa Matthew. In this, the forty-fourth year of our National Y.W.CA. she became the first Indian woman to carry the responsibility as National General Secretary. Always I shall treasure the picture of Sosa Matthew with a lovely lamp of South India in her hand, leading us into the chapel for the closing service of dedication. It was a unique privilege to be the one in whose regime the transition was made.

At the Conference it had been decided that Welfare work for women of the Services should be developed, for India had become an armed camp. Men of every part of the British Commonwealth of Nations, plus Americans, plus West Africans swarmed the streets of Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta, and many places in between. At first it seemed strange to see so many of my fellow countrymen. I wanted to stop each one I passed and say " Where do you come from?" "Are you the son or nephew or brother of some one I know back home?" One was amazed at the adaptability of our American boys. They walked the streets of Delhi as though they had always been there. They bicycled over Lucknow on a holiday as though they had been coming for years; they worked in the heat of Calcutta

as thougb the tropics bad always been their home They bave been liked and sometimes dis· liked, by those with whom they have come in contact; they bave been admired and envied. Apart from the winning of a war it is interesting to wonder what the effect of having thou· sanw of American men in India will mean to relations between the two coUDtries Some wiU return to you knowing nothing really about India; some will only bave tales of the dirt and the poverty, of the beggars who pursued them, and tbe bazaar which cheated them But fortu· nately there will be that small group who througb their desire to learn and their eagerness to understand, have been able to go deeper into the life of India . For them, dosed doors bave opened and friendsbip been offered, and they will bring back to you a different story. Listen to both, for both are India . It is a land of contradictions; of vast wealth and degrading poverty, of rare charm and complicated prob· lems A land that displays its worst and often hides its best, 50 that many wbo come to ber shores go away with knowledge but without understanding.

Many of you may have seen Beverley Nichols' book "Verdict on India" which bas been most disturbing to Indians. Much that he writes is true, just as much that Katherine Mayo wrote in "Mother India" was true, but there is another side to the picture. If you read Beverley Nichols, lind Horace Alexander if you can and read his brief book "India since Cripps:'

However to return to myself. If the National Y.W.CA. was to develop club, and leave hostel, and general welfare work for the Service Women, I being free from my former duties seemed the logical one to start it. So with a splendid dbaitman, Lady Sloan, and a good committee, we started and 1944 was for me a year of work almost entirely with the military. The Welfare section of the army was eager for our help, and as one of six voluntter tions, ga.ve us many concessions to help us g et on with the job. We had rank "as of' officers, travelled on warrants etc., so that while the rest of the world was saying "Isn't travel terrible these days?" (and it was) I was having the luxury of lirst class travel, and more comfort than ever before (for in peacetime we never go higher than a second class compartment) and my little red, identity card with rank "as of Lt. Colonel" opened maoy doors.

It was anmteresting experience, but we soon realized that the job would become an increas· ingly large ooe, for S E. A. C had arrived and the "Forward Area" of Assam and Burma, where women were working under difficult

conditions, needed attention.

So, we asked the Britisb Y.W.CA. to loan Miss Be88 to us, that our part of the world might bave the benefit of her four years of experience in the Middle East and Italy wbere sbe bad done a superb piece of welfare work. They agreed to do so and in December sbe arrived, and I gave over to her the responsibilities of " Director of WeUare for Service Women ." Having been National General Secretary of India for ten years previous to my coming, she quickly picked up the threads and has been doing a grand job , adding Welfare centres in many strategic places. Our Y.W.CA. unit went across with the first convoy to Rangoon and already our Blue Triangle is in action there once again.

In January, my four year contract ended. I lingered on to finish off a few unfinished tasks of my previous< regime, then Mother and I packed up our possessions, added the elepbant table and the Indian brass to the Japane tapestry and Grandmotber's silver urn that many of you know, and sent them to Calcutta. Then I said farewell to my friends and my little round office where I'd planned agendas, written the Quadrennial Report, talked and planned with staff and committees. Said a last salaam to dear old Khansama who has cooked and looked after our needs so well, and the Moli who brought us fresb Bowers each morning from his garden, and Romjan who kept us swept and clean and lovable little Mona who helped with many chores. Then there was faithful Meteram who mailed all the letters and did the errands and carried tbe "chits" from place to place (for we send notes more than we telephone, for SO few people bave phones). It wasn't easy to say farewell! But it was time to go. Into able hand, my two tasks had been given. I must be off to begin again.

In the meantime, the World', Y.W.CA . had been appointing "Emissaries" to renew the links with those countries which had been cut off from our Association family. Would I be their special representative to the Pbilippin es and later if possible to Java and Siam?

I had been thinking much about Manila, wondering if there would be some way in which I could be of help to the friends and to the Y.W .CA. which bad meant so much to me in my years there. So I accepted, glad that the opportunity had come. But bow to get there! The most direct way seemed to be back to the U.S.A. and from there to the Philippines, but this meant much voyaging without widening my horizon. Always I had wanted to know Australia and New Zealand, so Mother and r

decided we would start forth in that direction. Two months of waiting followed , broken by two delightful weeks in Darjeeling where we could escape from the trying heat of Calcutta and feast on the glory and majesty of the Himalayas. Ea ch morning we looked out of our window to see if the douds had lifted to give us a glimpse of the eternal snows piled high against the blue of the morning sky . We hoped for a month there and were delightfully and comfortably settled , when one morning a telegram arrived "Come Calcutta immediately," [0 two hours we were on the train leavin g be· hind the walks and treks we had planned for the days ahead , and arrived in Calcutta to swelt« for two weeks before, on June 10, the "Madura " finally set sail. Such is the usual story of tran sportation these days, for peop le here sit in Bombay for four, five or six months before ships come to carry them to the U.S . A. But we were rewarded by a very comfortable sh ip, a cabin to ourselves, good food, co ngenial travelling companions, and a calm sea, an almost unbelievable combination in these days of war travel. Two weeks yesterday since we said good by to Calcutta. Two weeks more before we land in Adelaide and add a new cont.inent to Qur world.

However our education is alread y beginning, for almost all of the passengers are either Australians or New Zealanders headed for home, most of them after years away . Such an eager crowd they are. "Haven't seen the wife for four years," "This is the little daughter I've Dever seen," "It was 1929 when I last left New Zealand." Such the comments we bear. For all Df them the ship goes far too slow_ My next letter will probably tell you of my adventures in this southern continent. But before I land , and before the India episode for me has passed into histo,' I must try to tell you a little of India itsd in the years that have just passed.

Today is a significant day on which to att=pt to do so, for up in the beautiful bill station of Simla, in the stately halls of Vice Re gal Lodge, the Viceroy is meeting with the leaders of Ind ia whom he has asked to join him in trying to find a way to take the next step. India, I am sure is holding her breatb-<lr is she? Sbe has become so disillusioned, so cynical , so lacking in faith-she may be going ber way as usual, unconcerned and indifferent . But we hope not! !

The release of the Congress president, Dr. Mulana Abdul Kalem Azad and Nehru, wruch has happened since I sailed, bas belped I am sure. I almost wish the boat might bave been delayed another month for I really wanted to

be in In dia for these days which may prove momentous ones for her.

L. U . Matters opens his first chapter in a s hort book called "India," remarkable for its dear and concise statement of facts, with the sentence, "Whatever you know , or do not know , about the India Problem you can now say with certainty that it is tough- it is still there grim, tragic, and seeming ly intractable to any kind of treatment," but he e nds his last chapter- "India ha s been a great nation and is a great nation. She will be greater sti ll."

Perhaps one of the reasons why you have had so few letters from me is because the problem of India is "tough ." Whatever one writes. whatever one reads, is usually both right and wrong. Nothing is ever a whole picture . One oversimplifies, another makes it all too (ampIex; one may learn of many sides yet always there are still other sides to try to understand.

I look back and realize what a lot we Jived through in the four brief years I was there . Th. days when we expected Japan to come-but she didn't-.,xcept for a few visits when she did littl e more than drop her ca lling card on the island of Ceylon and in Bengal and Assam. Then the Congress meeting and its so called "Quit India " resolution. The arrest of almost a ll the leaders of the country and hundreds of others The "August disturbances" which followed in protest when much damage was done . Gandhi's fast when we all held our breath and waited from day to day wondering if the thin thread of life would last. The sigh of relief when it did. The rejoicing wben he was released The meeting between Gandhi and Jinnah when we waited with hope but a minimum of faith that out of the conversations something would result-a nd little did . The ever deeper sense of frustration and hopelessness in regard to the political situation, with beneath it an ever widening gulf of bitterness, and a feeling of futility, cynicism and at times almost despair .

Then came the Bengal famine. It was too terrible! That in a world where there was food near at hand, people because of a curious combination of circumstances and many contributing causes over which they had no control, could be dying of starvation by the thousands, dying every day in the streets of the second largest c ity of the British Empire, seemed unbelievable . Yet it was true and tragic evidence that something was radi ca lly wrong with our social system . I have never seen anything anywhere more terrible. Emaciated bodies, pitiful appeals for help or often too little strength to even ask. Rani Maharaj Singh, our National President,

and I went over to Calcutta to see what the Y.W.CA. of Calcutta was doing and what more we could do to help. We did do something but it was so pitifully little, so inadequate. But somehow India lived through those days. She is used to going through the valley of the shadow of death.

Flood and plague also took their terrible toll in several provinces. Continued agitation for the release of political prisoners went on. Many wefe freed when their terms expired but many were still held, some without trial. Thoughtful people felt the leaders should be released to deal with the famine and give leadership in the deteriorating situation, esrecially when there was no longer a threat 0 invasion by Japan. Government however was certain its course was the right one and the only one, when so much was at stake with Japan at Indias door. Soldiers and airmen came in ever increasing numbersBriti s h, Americans, Chinese. AJI the countries of the British Commonwealth of Nations were represented including the West Africans who have done much fighting in Burma. Americans came from almost every state in the union but especially it seemed from the Southern States. And one night I met a group of Free Fren ch with amazing stories of escape from prison camps. While another time it was an Italian group. released from the prisoner of war camps to form the " Pioneer Unit" to fight in Burma or do other work in India-but not in Italy.

FinaUy, the Viceroy's term ended and Lord and Lady Linlithgow departed. He left, I think, a very disappointed disillusioned man. He had come to India with the hope that he would be of service in meeting the agricultural needs of the country, -for he loved the land . But Lord Linlithgow was forced by circumstances to serve in one of the most critical periods of India's hi story. The demands were outside of his ex· pedence and it was most difficult for him to cope with them. It was a task to test the wisdom and courage of any leader.

I had stayed for several days with them when he was Commander-in-Chief at the "C-in-C House" and was glad for the opportunity it had given me to know him as a person and always I have had a feeling of confidence that even though he might not succeed in solving the political problems of India, he would make a most honest and si ncere effort to improve things as much as he could.

The return of Sir Claude Auchinleck as Commander·in-Chief for India was welcomed by India. He had been well liked when he held the post before, and even though the Middle East had been a tragic affair for him, he was much admired. India was glad when he did the unusual and made a young Indian officer his chief A.D .C

Then the day came when Delhi and Simla Army Headguarters divided honors with Ceylon and SEAC (South Eastern Asia Command) was formed with headquarters in Kandy and Lord Louis Mountbatten a familiar name in all the news. Thanks to his having known of the work of Miss Begg in the Middle East, when we met him at a luncheon at the Viceroy's House , he loaned us his beautiful car for a few hours to take her to the airport. In our Y.W.CA. uniforms with our blue blazer coats, we felt very important as we drove about Delhi, hoping to show ourselves off to friends-but alas, we didn't see a soul we knew!

The terrible day of the Bombay port fire with its appalling loss of both life and property, made another black mark on our calendar. As I look back, we seem to have lived life in two worlds. One the political world in which many felt nothing mattered and that there was no use attempting to do anything. With Britain continually saying "Get together and something will evolve. We cannot deal with a divided India. " With India replying " Release our leaders first. Until they are freed, how can we do anything." Consequently a stalemate resulted which Raj copa lachari , the former very able mayor of Madras and one time member of the

With mixed feeling, India heard that General \'(lavell had been appointed Viceroy. He had been respected and admired as Commander-inchief of the Army, but India had never had a military man as Viceroy. There was considerable dissatisfaction and a good deal of guestioning. At the same time there was hope, for he knew India and was known as a man of action-all of which was on the credit side. When immediately after taking office, he flew to Calcutta and toured Bengal to see the famine situation, the country reacted well. His predecessor had not gone to see for himself, he had only learned from others . Lord Wavell at once put the army in charge of distribution and while it was too late to save the situation, it was possible to improve it. His approach to all the problems that have arisen since, has been realistic and straight forward and as a result confidence in him as Viceroy has increased. People have been impressed by his sincerity and simplicity. Much of the former ceremony and display of Viceroy House, which dwindled but did not pass with the comin)? of war, disappeared when the new Viceroy and Lady Wavell entered.

Congress Party, tried to break through. While at the same time Sapru of the "non-party group" attempted to find a solution. Conoete proposals were drawn up but little seemed achieved. Then the Viceroy Bew to England md India again began to hope though still in a very skeptical fashion.

In the other world-we were at war Soldiers everywbere--army, air» navy in ever increasing numbers. More men of India joining, though usually because of economic pressure more th an any interest in the war itself. Recruiting of men rose or fell according to whether there were or were not jobs whjch paid as well as the army. The military took over more and more responsibility. Their needs and demands made life increasingly difficult and expensive for the civilians, as it has allover the world. But in India it was nothing in comparison with England and other countries. English friends would arrive from Britain and stare with amaze· ment at our supply of oranges, eggs, sweets, and other things. However, as the cost of living went up, life became very difficult for people on limited income and almost icnpossible for the great mass of India who seldom have to more than exist at any time. Ooth became a problem, oil was strictly licnited. The increase in work compensated for a few and the money allotments sent home by the soldiers bene£ted others, while "dearness allowances" helped government employees, but seldom enough. Consequently Ind ia suffered.

Now while we have been on the boat and since this letter word has come over the wireless that the conference between Wavell and the leaders has again failed. This time Mr. Jinnah has refused to agree. You probably have had more details than I have, here on my ship at sea. However, I believe these attempts, in spite of the frustration and bitterness they bring, give to the world. few more facts and point up or even iron out a few more difficulties, and perhaps bring India a few more halting steps nearer her long hoped for goal. Now we watch with interest to see how the new Labor Govern· ment of Britain will .pproach the tangled situation. At least the departure of Amory will be welcomed by India.

since I started this. I expected it to be on its way long ago but the unexpected happened instead.

On July ninth, we landed in Adelaide, had a delightful week there, then went to Melbourne. The day after our arrival we were leaving for a luncheon engagement, the taxi and) waiting in front of the hotel, mother following. Suddenly I looked up to see mother stepping off into space and crashing down onto the pavement. She had failed to see two small steps. Ambulance, hospital, X-ray, bone broken in knee, plaster cast and at least twelve weeks in the hospital. Our plans, as well as the bone, shattered. But luckily no complications, and so when at last the permit from Washington to enter the Philippines came and the order to fly with the U. S. Army arrived (thanks to General MacArthur) mother said, "Manila needs you more than I do." So tomorrow I'm off. Brisbane, Biak, Leyte, then Manila. If not "off loaded" too often, I should be in Manila by a week from today. So this goes on its way to carry good wishes to each of you. Since it was started there has come the wonderful news that the war is over. How thankful we are. I wonder what it has meant to each of you . I wonder what it will mean to India. I now go to see the tragic effects of war on a city and people I loved in days of peace. But I'm glad to be returning to help rebuild and reconsttuct. Think of me and ask ' that I may have the wisdom and the fortitude I shall need for the task.

December the sixth. Y.W.CA., 1330 Gov. Forbes Street, Manila.

Here I am after a glorious flight up from Australia. Arrived September the second. A wonderful home coming. A toyal welcome. But oh what a tragic city and what unbelievable stories I have been hearing. You can not imagine the suffering and agony through which people have gone. I shall try to write of it soon.

As always,

Very sincerely,

Miss Hendri cks illustrated her talk with beautiful samples of chintz. damask, wall paper. etc She showed some exquisite pieces, matching colors SO the group might see the right things to combine. Some were samples of materials she used in decorat· ing homes of wealth and culture .

The AJ'Oup later went to the downstairs room of the library. where Miss Hendricks showed colored slides of Washington homes which she had decorated. Among these was the home of the late Raymond a.pP<'.

Announcement was made that Miss Hendricks had donated her fee for the lecture to the PurcellvilJe Library as a memorial to her mother. Luta Poyneer Hendrick..s of Bluemont a nd Washington, who passed away a y6r ago and who during her liftetirne had contributed generously to the library.

From Elizabeth logan. Manitoba A., dietitian with the United States Army. comes this letter: "I arrived in Manila, PJ., April 194'. and after staying for two months 6nally moved into the Mandulayong 26th Medical Center which was to be a 20.000 bed center with six Hospitals operating. Each hospital was a separate unit. On June 28 we started admitting patients and in a few days our census had rtached 1000. We had moved into an area that if it had been completed would have been quite satisfactory; but it was only about half way completed SO we all pitched jn buildjng. re· modeling, and painting. The mess hall was very i nadequate in size and equipment. Water was scarce, we had had a stige of illness among the cooks. and we were very shorthanded. You know the old fa· miliar saying back in the states. ''l"m sorry no more for the duration, it's all going overseas." Well we would have liked to have seen a little of that ment and food that was aU coming overseas! How· ever. when you take into consideration that Manila was a newly-taken base and stood in ruins and deso-lation. they djd pretty well in gettinA us set up. We three dietitians turned into engineers, plumbers, carpen ters. painters, and wh at have you, We all pitched in to help get the mess stra.ightened around and after much squeaking and complaining finall,. got a hold of some materials to make the improvements. When we had finished we had a right to be proud of our work. The day we moved into our new lcitcheo was the day Japan announced her acceptance of the terms o f the Potsdam Conference, It was an excitin.g day for all but we continued to carry on our work because we realized that in a sense our work was just beginning. Our job now is to take care of the internees until they are well enough to make the trip back to the States and Canada. We a.re proud of our mess department here and after many hardships are now operating very smoothly . It has been an experience being the Head dietitian of a 6..ftecn hundred bed hospital and I ever grateful that i n my own sm dJ way I have helped. in the care of our sick and wounded,'"

Navy Nurse

Ii leller 10 Ihe Edilor

Maybe someone may be interested in hearing from another Pi Phi in the Service. I've been stationed at the U. S. Naval Hospital, Shoemaker, California, since reporting for active duty last spring. My Navy se rvice has been a wonderful and I like the Navy so well that I am applying for a transfer to the regulars, with the hope of getting an appointment to physio-therapy school.

Before coming into the Navy and after completing my nursing school course at the Children's Hospital in San Francisco, I was on the staff of the Shriner Hospitals for Crippled Children, San Francisco Unit, and later instrudor in orthopedic nursing at Children's. During this time I was an active member of the San Francisco Alumnz Club serving as Recording Stcretary.

Being a Pi Phi has meant even more to me since coming on active duty than before, if that is possible.

College H olds Its O w n Version of the United Nations Organization

A N EXPERJMENT in world peace organization, n the "International Security A ssembly," is the chief extracurricular activity of students at Kansas State College.

Nearly 1,000 representatives of organized campus groups taking part in the assembly are scheduling meetings for the spring semester to consider questions of international importan ce which are brought before the world court. Thirty campus organizations c hose countries which they wished to represent and have studied their history, geography, Government and economy.

Pi Beta Phi chose to represent India in the stu dy, since it offered a field with plenty of

problems, and opportunity for expression and act ion in the college program.

At the first general assembly, Pi Beta Phi delegates presented an idealized India with a compromise government, and through the backing of smaller nations. they were able to secure a sea t for her in the assembly.

Though opposed by Great Britain, I ndia showed the majority of nations that she had achieved sufficient unity to merit recognit io n. Outlining its new federated government to show its effectiveness, the student representat ives we re in reality proposing a plan that might be used by India itself

WHAT A FRATERNITY GIRL THINKS

Sunday Dinner

Candle light Bi ckering on silver and crystal, blue leaves sprinkled on neat wbite china; Girls, young women. forty-five in number, with calm eyes reBecting the dancing Bames atop tall, stately forms of pink wax;

A momentary hush when conversation subsides and houseboys--young, shiny-faced lads in hospi tal-cris p jackets-rustle about tending table;

College women, beautiful in youth and lovely in sublime peace absorb the sweet serenity of Sunday dinner,

Tryin g to capture an indelible vision of this moment, this undescribable feeling of complete contentmm t,

An image of wbite throats outlined in black, rich wine, deep blue or lime green and soft tranquil laces of dear friends temporarily at peace with the world,

Of a swging emotion of love and thanksgiving and a realization that soon college joys will be nothing but fond memories , That this cherished unity will become fortyfive independent women, each taking h er place in the confusing world of disillusionment; Thus, with mingled thoughts of bappiness and regret, yOUDg women experience the comfort of loving and of being lovedAt Sunday dinner.

She finds herself st ill saying, "When the war is over . . ." The transition between the pre-war world and the postwar world is almost too wide a gap to bridge.

What ideals ca n a younger gene ration have under these conditions?

For university women, the termination of the war has changed college life very favorably. Pre-war activities of which everyone had heard glowing accounts but had never experienced, are being revived. Campus life is slowly but definitely reverting back to " normal."

The return of many veterans has brought about the opening of men's fraternities whose beautiful houses have been pitifully silent for over three years. It is exciting to watch them come to life again Each passing day brings something new-windows cleaned, doors opened, radios blaring, lawns raked, shrubs trimmed, happy voices singing as the dust flies from third story windows, smoke issuing contentedly from long unused chimneys-this is what we have been waiting to see.

Many traditions between men's and women's fraternities are being revived. For years Idaho Alphas entertained their neighbor ATO's at a Halloween Spook Party . This was very successfully reinstated this tall with some eighteen ATO's, every one a war veteran, entering into the fun enthusiastically and whole-heartedly.

Sports are back in the spot light. Everyone turns out for the big rally and pep dance as well as the game to cheer the home team on to victory. School loyalty and spirit is at its height.

Each long distance call brings happiness and one more loved one bome--quite a different message from " We regret to inform you." These

are the things we have been hoping, praying and working for. This is what college life should be!

Comradeship--a group of girls banded together for the mutual development of all-This is Pi Beta Phi. Through this organization girls are able to group together to bring happiness and aid to themselves and to others Informal and formal pledging, initiation banquets, initiation ceremonies, and the traditional cooky shine all work toward banding the girls closer together and bringing out the potentialities of each individual member. Indiana Epsilon has another activity that accomplishes this purpose, as well as providing an enjoyable evening for all.

Our pledges do not live in the sorority house with the active girls , so we plan frequent parties at the house which will include the pledges, making them feel closer to the group.

One of the most exciting parties this fall was the Halloween party given by the pledges for the actives. Amongst a Halloween atmosphere of black cats and pumpkin faces, dinner was served in the recreation room , Among the "guests" were Jack Sprat and his wife, Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick, and Jack Jump Ovec the Candle Stick, and various other notable personalities.

One evening Indiana Epsilon obtained the use of the university swimming pool and staged a swimming party. Umbrella races lent a humorous light to the occasion. Refreshments were served before the recreation room fire-place, where Pi Phi songs were sung .

Such parties as these give the house added feeling of the companionship and comradeship to be found in fraternity life . INDIANA EpSILON

Chapter treasurers should see that badges arc ordered through the Central Office. ]t takes three weeks or more, under prescnt conditions, to complete badge o rders. Badges for prospective memben should not be ordered until aU initiation requirements have been met.

The corresponding sec,retary should report to the Central Office changes in chapter officers if they are made, any time durin,g the year.

When college schedules make it impossible to comply exactly with fratemitr calendar dates, chapter officers should contact Central Office, explain the situations, and receive special permission to vary from the established dates.
