THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

VOLUME 53

WNUMBER 2

EDITORIAL

E EXTEND a most cordial welcome to our new chapter, Louisiana Beta, which was installed the week -end of October 16 , 1936. Louisiana State University in Baton Rou ge, Louisiana is the home of this new chapter, and information about the installation of the c hapter and the university will appear in the next issue The story was received too late for inclusion in this number

Life in a fraternity chapter may mean so much of real development ! It offers SUdl varied IlOes of effort-it may train executives, it may make excellent housekeepers , it may awaken a real ability to live among people well and pleasantly, it may train busmess women, it may c ultivate a genius for friendship-best of all it may awaken strength of character in a gi rl , may make her really wish to make a mark of excellence in her worJd, whethe r that be a world of business struggle, a life of arti st ic effort , or the capable and effic ie nt living of a married life Wherever her lines may be cast, a member of a co ll ege fra ternity should have ga in ed from its close assoc iations and its efficient organization many things that will make life easier i n the

But only with effort will these things be acquired, and that effort must be sustained from the very beginning to the end of college life From pledge to se ni or, girls must be led to give the best that is in them to their college and their fraternity. Only so will they continue all their lives long to give that best to the emergencies and demands of life as they corne, only SO will they find fullest measure of satisfaction in every relation of life .

Books would normally seem an essential part of co llege Iife-but a re they? How many dlapters have real libraries ? Not just a few books of referen ce, a few d iscarded novels,- but books chosen to be of real value , books fitted to be a pastim e for a restless hour, books offering refuge for a tired spirit, books offering stimu lus for the active minds of the g irls in our chapters. books to make into lifelong friends

What are we doing abou t it ? Have our chapte rs a defin ite interest in books as friends a nd compan ions ? If not, why not ? The Editor would be glad to hear from chapters that have made real librari es for themselves .

For some years the ARROW had a department ca ll ed "What a Frate rn ity Girl Thinks ," t hen pressure of material crowded it out. It offered so much of value and intere st that we s hould like to revive it, confining it this time to one issue of each year, for this year the May number. Chapter problems, topics of general fraternity int ere st-look back over old ARR OWS to find the type of article wanted, then wr ite a brief a rticle, not more than two hundred words, preferably less Only active girls may contribute, only a cha pte r name will be us ed as signature. and only those articles ca n be used which a re interest ing in theme and well -ex pressed in goo d literary style. The Editor reserves the right to judge of th e ir sui tabi lity . Would you like " What a Fraternity Girl Thinks" rev ived? It rests with you!

A question in last year's fraternity examination concerned the ARROW and in the answers was much of interest. The girls want so muc h of the ARROW! More pictures, more of everything that costs money, more money than we have to spend at p resent . The letters s how ed real interest, and that was heart -wa rmIng to the Editor-they ranged from praIse of various features, through intelligent criticism to one which very wisely sa id that the girls needed first of all to be taught to read the ARROW! An interesting point for pledge supervisors there! All were illuminating and yet humblin g to the Editor, and th ey brought the g irls who read the ARROW very close. For them we are most grateful.

Of great interest is the appointment of Dr. James A. Grier to the presidency of Mon. mouth College to succeed Dr. T . H . McMichael, who resi g ned a year ago . As the son of one of our Founders, Ada Bruen Grier, his connection with n B (f) is dose, and the good wishes of the fraternity go with him in his work for the of OUf origin. Dr. Grier has had an interesting ca reer in the United Presbyterian Church, and for the last six years has been pastor of the Second Chu rch in Monmouth

Are any Pi Beta Phis writing poetry ? The editor would be glad to hear of their work and to use some of it!

Few men have given as much to their own fraternities and to the whole fraternity world as did George D. Kimball, :l: A E, who died on July 8, 1936 For thirty-s ix years Mr Kimball served on the Supreme Council of :l: A E , his term of serv ice ending only when he refused fe-election in 1934 . He was further distinguished as having introduced the original motion which led to the founding of the N ational In terfraternity Conference, and he had always maintained his strong interest in the real spirit of panhellenism.

He was the broth e r of ou r own Martha Nutter Kimb all, former Grand Treasurer, and gues t of honor at our recent Convention in Chicago . To her and to I A E, n B wishes to express its deep regret and its sense of the loss that all fraternities have suffered.

For fourteen years Amy Olgen Parmelee has been so prominent in the fraternity world that it is hard to think of her in any other relatio:1ship than as th e editor of the Trident of 6 6 L>. , and as the distinguished de legate of that fraternity to N .P.C. Now Amy Parmelee has resi gned! Her loss will be greatly felt. H er /ine magazine has been a model for all of us, a factor of strength in all that is best in the fraternity system. Says our own Amy Onken of her "To have in the continuous development and pres tige of her own fraternity and in the deep affection of its members an indelible record of outstanding servi ce and of abiding app reciation for it , means to Amy Olgen Parmelee, I am sure, full recompense for her longcontinued and devoted pouring-out of herself to 6 6 6 . Those of us whose co nt acts with Mrs . Parmelee have been from outside her own fraternity, however, would be unwilling to have that record fa il to speak, with e<Jually lasting emphasis of appreciation, of her service to all fraternities. Surely by her personal friendliness , her generous giving of her ability and time to the problems of college and fraternity women, and her living of the ideals which are common to all fraternities she has given to us all an increased realiza · tion of the value of the things whi ch mean true fraternity!"

Aside from Mrs . Parmelee three other prominent editors have resigned and will be greatly missed: Jean Jam es Dennorest of the Adelphean of A 6 II ; Mildred Pease of the Lamp of 6 Z ; and Jessie Helen Sims Hall , of the A r 6 Ollarterly We extend a welcome to their succ essors-and it is really a co mfort to find oneseU no longer the newest fraternity edito r!

All Pi Phis attending the annual convention of the N at ional Coun c il of Teachers of English to be held at Thanksgiving time in Boston are invited to communicate with Massachusetts Alpha chapter at 131 Commonwealth Avenue.

How do you I ike our new dress?

* *MARGARET UMPBELL

WITH DEEPEST GRIEF we have to announce the death of Margaret Campbell, Founder, at her home in Monmouth, Illinois, on October 15, after a long illness. Miss Campbell was the oldest living graduate of Monmouth College, and the only surviving member of her class , 1867-the year of our founding. She was the first treasurer of the Fraterruty.

Of aU our Founders, Miss Campbell had within the last few years the most active contact with her own chapter, and was present at the installation of Illinois Alpha when the chapter was restored in 1928. Her life was spent in Monmouth, with the exception of the years from 1903 to 1924, when she was first teacher and later matron at Thyne Institute, negro mission of the United Presbyterian Church, at Chase City. Virginia. Her work there was one of service and sacrifice of which we may be o roud.

Her health was frail during: the last years of her life, and she made her home in Monmouth with her sister, Agnes Campbell Murray, always a loyal Pi Phi, initiated into I.e. at Mon· mouth College in 1873. To Mrs. Murray the Fraternity extends its love and sympathy.

Those of us who have had the privilege of knowing Miss Campbell feel too a sense of personal bereavement. Our Founders have been so active in their interest, so close to the hearts of all members of Pi Beta Phi, so truly a part of the life of the Fraternity, that the loss of one of them is keenly felt.

Convention!

THE thrilling Sunday afternoon when peo. pIe were arriving, when a walk down the passages between the two great wings of the hotel meant stopping every few feet to greet an old friend or meet a new one, when just to watch the efficient registration desk for a few moments was to realize what careful planning had gone into every detail of Can· vention and how hard Helen Pierce Bang and her whole committee had worked!

Dinner w hard to eat that night with reunions everywhere, and the first session just ahead. That /irst session itself brought both laughter and tears from its very beginning until its climax in Mrs . Libbey 's late arrival and the tribute paid to her . To think that sixty. nine years after our founding we could still have even one of the Founders with us! and that one so charming, so interested in the present day affairs of the Fraternity, so eager to know the girls, so understanding in her talks with the officers. Fannie Whitena ck Libbey will always Jive in memory as the outstanding figure of the 1936 Convention.

Indeed, it was a Convention of personalities. The first night when Beatrice Edmonds gave her delig htful reading of '"First Lady,-· the inspiring talk of Dean Maria leonard of University of Illinois, who has been called the " Dean of Deans," Welthy Honsinger Fisher's spiritual and uplifting address on Panhellenic night, Esther L1oyd Jones' prac· tical talk to the actives on "Leadersnip," the banquet with its brilliant toast listthe whole scheme of this Convention called attention to the rare women we have in Pi Beta Phi. That was its strongest, its most lasting impression, not only that we had present the largest gathering in our history -except the Washington Conference-and one far larger than any other women's college fraternity has ever had, but that size was not its strongest feature . These were women of personality and charm , girls of exceptional beauty and intellect-a nd our pride in them was unbounded.

The banquet program is given here, but no program can show that banqu et-a nd again the numbers present, 1084, were only an incident. From the balcony the tahles were a sea of gleaming glistening white-the cellophane baskets filled with the gardeni .. which were favors for the guests made every table lovely. It is interesting that they were designed by

Mrs. jay Seaver, not a Pi Phi, but a close frien of Marie Hakes King , Illinois E, who planned the banquet so efficiently. The pro· gram was dedicated to the new History of Pi Beta Phi , centered around epochs in the fraternity·s life-and with each of the toasts the curtains parted and a Sir! in the costume of the special period , one from each of the seven chapters of Eta Province, appeared in

a tableau bearing an armful of gorgeous flowers. The candleJighting ceremony was rever · ently and beautifully given-and more than one had tears in their eyes as they saw Mrs . Libbey ·s fa ce while the tribute was being paid the Founders.

Fancy dress night brought out an amazing number of costumes , literally hundreds of knights and ladies, fairy tale figures, sheiks - there were authentic costumes from all over the world, and pity the poor judges who had to decide which was best.

So many little things-the little knot of people always around Lois Stoolman in her wheel chair-the province luncheons and dinners with their chance for really talking

Some Impressions

By MARTHA NUTTER KIMBALL, Con v ention Gllest and former Grand Treasllrer

HE privilege of being convention-guest in 1936 was for me a love ly experience . Foremost among conventio n impressions I wou ld rate the pride we alumnre were able

notable Pi Phis , for there was the PanhelIenic banquet. These women who have achieved-how we deli.e:ht in them!

The Settlement School always claims a large share in OUf affections. Th e convention exhibit again made it possible for us to point with pride to Pi Beta Phi's share in the revival of native arts and crafts in our country. It is a fine thing for a favored group of American women thus to help bring a more abundant life to these Americans of the Tennessee mountains . The school's usefulness is widening. Could it not easily become a model for such enterprises everywhere?

Yet it was the personal element that most strangely warmed the heart. Now a member of one's own chapter appears, seen too seldom since college days. Again , the friends made at earli er conventions and even their children make themselves known. Thus the years are spanned.

M.ARTHA NtJTrER KIMBALL

to take in the beautiful bearing of our girls as th ey came and went in that public place, We can't be too grateful to them for this testimony to their devotion to Pi Phi ideals.

To both young and old there was ins p iration in the messages from Pi Phis who h ad made good conspi cuously, Dean Leonard , Mrs, Welthy Fisher, Dr , Jones ; we are glad they wear the arrow. Nor did we stop with

TConvention, 1936, was a complicated as well as a marvelously smooth-running affair to one whose active duties had ended in 19 08. The machinery, so much more intricate now, was well-oiled. Work that used to be done at convention, because it was smaller, is now done largely before convention meets. Committees, often large, now do work that formerly belonged wholly to the Council. In spite of this no 1936 Council member belonged among the unemployed, while new and important officers have sprung into being .

Much attention was given at Convention details, to the details of courtesy and gracious living. Enough deference and respect were shown me to last till the end of time, And didn 't I revel in it!

We Initiate Mrs. Adams

HE Convention Initiate of 1936 is a most interesting and charming woman whom it is a pleasure to honor- Lu ci Ie Wheeler

Adams of Champaign , Illinois , Mrs . Adams was born in White River Junction, Vermont, and attended Vermont Academy in Saxton's

Later she joined the faculty at the University of IJJinois , where she has been ever since.

Her work has been on subjects connected with foods, and she has written many artides for the National Food Administration , and for the University of [Hinois Mrs Adams has also had the experien ce of working two summers in Dr. H . C. Sherman's labora · to ry in New York on subjects connected with nutrition for the Associ ation for Improving the Condition of the Poor in New York City .

In 1918 she married Dr Roger Adams, present head of the chemistry department of the University of Illinois.

FANCY DRESS NIGHT

By RUTH WILSON . Tenneuu A

IF1 HAD been elected "Miss America " or "Madame Dixie ," I'm sure I would have experienced no more of a thrill than I did when presented with the prize, a large blue and crystal vase, the reward for the costume most typical of Pi Beta Phi at the Fancy Dress Ball during Convention.

Right here and now let me say that a bit of psychology and a dash of dramatic training were brought into play in my carrying off the coveted prize. With happy memories of other gay assemblies at Asbury Park and at Yellowstone , I reasoned thus with myself. "You are not pretty-even your best friends admit it ; you are not funny ; neither are you original. Perhaps you can be typical. But typical of what? Typical of Pi Beta Phi , of course."

When my sister and I packed our bags for Chicago we forgot many things essential to a complete week's sojourn, but we induded several costumes which she and I had worn on various o ccasions. There was a riot of scarlet and yellow taffeta that represented Comedy in its most loquacious moment; there were all the makings of a peasant girl with rosy cheeks and a fringed scarf tied under her chin ; and for good luck there was the old faded blue and white dimity with its many rows of val lace and insertion that had been my costume in "The Copperhead" and again in "One Sunday Afternoon." Tucked in the suitcase too was a voluminous stiffiy starched, white petticoat that had been worn by a Louisville belle on her wedding day back in the "Gay Nineties."

With a deft twist, my sister ripped off the sashes of our own evening dresses ; one was wine, the other blue. Cleverly she fashioned a bustle by draping the skirt over the long white beflounced petticoat. The Edgewater Beach Florist Shop donated the wine carnation, and I sneaked out late one night to snip off enough silver paper from Kentucky Alpha's chapter exhibit to fashion the Arrow for my hair. Behold , you have the Girl of Old I.e. Then came the big moment when so many

costumed Pi Phi members assembled that it w as necessary to pla ce them four abreast for the Grand March . Now I'm not professing to be the least bit clever. But I do admit that I had sense enough not to parade too close to those beautiful creatures I was particularly c areful to stay as far as pos s ible away from that gorgeous girl in the white net hoop skirt with the blue satin bows that made me think of Margaret Sullavan in " So Red the Rose " I also shunned the company of the cute little Texans in the magnificent robes of state! I realized that even though I might have eleven personal friends in the judges' stand, I'd never be noticed with aU th at glamor and beauty and humor that par ad ed by in its bid for recognition. Perhaps I won by a fluke. Who knows? And who cares? It was all such fun!

The baU presented a kaleidoscope of color - a riot of costumes rang ing from the attractively ridiculousness of Raggedy Ann with the white shoe polished eyes, to the amazing pretentiousness of the Mexican womanboth winners in their classes. little Red Riding Hood , grandmother, and the wolf attracted a great deal of attention , particularly when it was discovered that beneath the scarlet hood and cape was Miss Onken in comp , ny with Mrs Webster and the delegate from Nova Scotia A. I can see them all. and I wish you could. The mountain woman with the high buttoned shoes; the Arab woman or maybe she was Syrian; the various groups of quintuplets with Dr. Dafoe; our ARROW Editor in a crimson kimona that is oh, so many years old! There was the Magazine Agency. and the original newsp'per outfit worn by Carol Lee Davis of Bucknell, whi ch I know was concocted with a snip , snip here and a few pins there as the Grand March assembled! There too was the bride whose veil had a moment before been the curtains of Room 202 and her caUa lily bouquet, the hand towels!

Yes, the Fancy Dress Ball is always something to cherish with the happy memories of Convention!

Convention Art Exhibit

By LAURA STORMS KNAPP , Io wa r , Chairman

IF YOU would lea rn a bit about art, a little of those who are interested in things artistic, and more about utists, we suggest that you somehow acquire the task of arrang ing an art exhibit. This has been our good fortune for Grand Council asked us to arrange (or convention an exhibit of the work of Pi Phis and Pi Phi relatives who are artists and art ist ic craftsmen.

The fun started with the letters sent to clubs and chapters asking for the names of prospective exhibitors, and those goi ng to the artists asking for exhibits . Th e excitement was well under way when we went with two porters into the room filled with odd-shaped boxes and began opening them to find wh at had been sen t us The satisfaction followed when our visitors expressed delight with the result.

Our able assistants were Helen Rosenth al , Washington A, and Jean West, Iowa z It took us all day to arrange and han g the lovely things which had been sent.

Just inside the door of the West Room we hung the large, colorful oil portrait of '" Irene '" by Miriam Buckholz, Illinois Z. Sh e must have been an Italian, fascin ating as she s its in despondent repose. There were three other pictures by the same artist. One, an oil of a small blond we learned after co nvention , was that of the daugh te r of Mrs. Adams , convention initiate. Three transparent pastels by Mr. McCombs, father of Ruth Clifton, W as hington A, hung next. His medium is the French crayon and fonned an interesting con· trast to the nine life-like portraits done in red c rayon by Jean Dayton West, Iowa Z Virginia Castleton Bryner, Utah A , was represented by six lovely water co lors A table held pewter by Marian Wilder, North Dakota A, and a former Pi Phi Fellowship girl; pottery vase made by Lorraine Lovall , Minne · sota A; sculpture, Pea rl McArthur Strack, Indiana B ; pottery, Helen Hoface, Minnesota A; wooden trays and vase, Betty Burrows , Iowa r; and a miniature by Gene Hobbs , IIIi-

Mr. Pescheret, husband of Grace Wallar Pescheret, Iowa A , brought in three of his beaut iful colo r etchings. In the center bay was a long tahle filled with Haeger Pottery Mr Haeger is the husband of Betty Mills

H aeger and the father of Barbara, both Iow a r . Above and on each side were two water colors by Ruth Doolittle, Oregon B; five water colors, Dorothea Schulz Gerrnundson, Illin ois Z, one a .self portrait; six water colors, Mrs . Roy H . Clayburn, sister of Adeline Stewart Schroeder, Wisconsin B

Across the west end were three wate r colors by Florence Page Jaques, Ill inois H, and three bird studies by her husband, with whose work we are familiar through the National Goo· graphic; a marine , Mr J Arthur H eppes, father of Jean Heppes Firsch, Illinois t., and four paintings by H al Fraley Nelson, Okla, homa A

The seven lithographs by Constance Forsyth , In dia na r, and a lan dsca p e by her fath e r formed a much admired group. Also on the sou th wall were two paintings by Mrs. Leslie Van Al stine, mother of Enid Hayward , Colorado Ji.; four oils, Phoebe Kin g Higgins , N evada A; an interesting g roup by Margaret Kans as A, and he r father , Berger Sandzen.

Down the ce nter of the room, on large sc reen s were shown photogra phs of original fumiture designs by the husband of Mary Gibson , Colorado B; water colo rs and a char · coa l, Louise Hartzler, Iowa B; water colors, wood block and linoleum cu ts, Hilda Herz , N evada A ; paintings, Hel e n Cook, Ohio"; oils and wood cuts by Kathryn Dayton Aucner, Iowa Z; linoleum and block prints, Jane Allen , Kansas A ; nine lovely photo . graphs by John Barry, brother of Alice Howe Barry, Iowa r ; and musi c written by Lilian Craig Coffman , Iowa A.

In a g lass case we exhibited wood carvings by Royce Martin , husband of Sylvia Gray Martin , Minnesota A. They were very life· like and although they needed no titles the captions were very clever as for example the one on the figure of Kin g Imm anuel which read, '"He plays the king as though he momentarily expected his opponent to play the ace.·'

We had a deli g htfully interesting variety of work shown by the thirty .s ix different artists and were much g ratified by the interest exhibited in the lovely things done by Pi Phis and their relatives .

president, and Miss Harriet Johnstone of Seattle, who accompanied Mrs. Soule to the Asbury Park Convention.

So lovely a celebration almost makes up for the disappointment of not having Mrs Soule present at Edgewater Beach!

To the many Pi Phis who were so kind and thou g htful in remembering me on my birthday, I wish to express my sincere appreciation.

A SCHOOL FOR LOVE

By LORINE PRUETTE, Tennessee A

The Allih or: Born of revolutionary stock in the blue grass section of Tennessee, Larine Pruette came north as soon as she was graduated from the University of Chattanooga .

lORI N E PRUETTE . T, ,,,,m , , A " 1'", (0"( " ,,,,1 w;l b wh, "" ' , b". , Iii, b.",,,,, ";,,,1"

She worked for the government during the World War, after which she studied for the master's degree at Clark University and for the doctorate at Columbia She has taught at Smith College, the University of Virginia, and New York University. At present she is a

consulting psychologist in private work and a member of the staff of the Psychological Clinic of the Association of Consulting Psyc hologists in New York City; she is also an accredited representative of the Psychological Corporation.

Her first book, o man and LeiJure, A SllIdy of S o cial Watle (Dutton, 1924), is now a standard referen ce on the subject of women 's work and adjustment to problems of modern life. Writing about it Dr Joseph Peterson of the George Peabody College for Teachers says, "You have entered a field that is very important, one that you should continue to hammer and hammer at until you see more women waking up to their opportunity."

She is best known among psychologists for her biography of G. Stanley H all (Appleton, 1926) , under whom she studied at Clark University. Dr. Joseph Jastrow, of the New School for Social Research, has declared this to be "a very notable piece of work . one of the distinctive biographies of recent times ."

Dr Pruette has contributed to many of the leading magazines of the country. She has written scientific and popular articles, stories and poems.

She has lectured before parent-teacher associations, town forums , radICal and conservative groups. While her subjects are of serious importance in contemporary life they are usually treated with a saving touch of humor . She attaches importance to the open discuss ion at the close of the lectures and her audiences are customarily moved to extensive and

vigorous participation in this discussion.

She is now working on the Commission on Human Relations, preparing a book on family relations for high schools. The Woma"'J Home Companion will soon publish an article of hers on child training .

"I have always followed these two lines of writing, lictional and scientific, both really concerned with that old question of why we behave like human beings, " she explained Her new novel is almost finished; it is concerned with the problem of the artist, in love and in society. It will probably make its ap ' pearance n('xt spring.

Tht Book: Lorine Pruette, best known to us for her brilliant psychological writings and for her astute book reviews, has given us one of the year's gayest and subtlest novels.

This amusing book is not to be enjoyed by those who prefer the old·fashioned-girl-under-a-shade-tree type of story. But those who like the brilliant scintillation of a witty, sophisticated writer, wiII find Dr. Pruette 's very clever.

It is a story of Betty- a sheltered, winsome Southerner, to an unimaginative George. She travels to Paris to buy her trousseau and the three riotous, exciting weeks spent with her expatriate cousin and his

friends , are the means by which Betty becomes of the not-too interesting, little girl is transformed into a charming, attractive woman .

This book is not to be considered " just another story," for under the gay nonsense of the light , amusing plot, the author has laid the foundation of a very true psychology of all her characters . And the balance of the two is ingenious.

There are unusually well written descrip. tions-in particular that of the races and of the Bohemian party.

Dr. Pruette's new book will be welcomed by a large group of discriminating readers.

The R,<iewerJ: With dexterity and the disciplined grace of a fencer, the novelist thrusts the blade of irony into the fabric of youth , deflecting it adroitly just in time to turn the point from tragedy to high comedy ·'School (or Love" is a discerning as welJ 3S a diverting novel. Lisle Bell, N.Y. Herald Tribunt.

Lorine Pruette , who has written some secl· ous books about psychologists, women work· ers, and parents, displays a pleasing, facile tou ch in her first light novel. She writes in an amusing, knowing, sympathetic style. Bea· trice Sherman, N.Y. Times.

LOVELY JOURNEY

By JESSIE DOUGLAS Fox, New York B

The Alllhor: Although several years have elapsed between the publication of "Rain Be· fore Seven," "What Mad Pursuits," and "Lovely Journey," Jessie Douglas Fox has not been idle. Numerous magazine articles and serials have found their way from her typewriter into print, but they have appeared anonymously or under a nom de plume and their identity remains a guarded secret between publisher and author.

Miss Fox lives in a lovely old home built by her grandfather in Yonkers on the Hudson River. The charming house, with its price less antiques, reflects the graciousness and good taste of this Pi Phi author

A hard-working writer is she, who disciplines herself to spend many hours a day at her typewriter, but finds time to pursue her hobbies. '" like gardens, cooking, strange places, dogs, antique furniture, and people." Incidentally, the "and people" may explain why her characters rise from the pages of her

books, to act and speak as very real individuals.

Miss Fox graduated from Barnard, traveled extensively in Italy, England, Canada, and the United States, was obsessed with the desire to be an artist, but decided that teaching was financially safer. She taught in the Albany Girls' Academy, resigned that position and took up interior decorating in New York. She established a girls' school in New England but "escaped to write under contract for a newspaper syndicate." Eventually, she tried her hand at novel writing with g ratifying sue· cess. When someone recently asked for news about herself, she modestly replied, "the news I like best is that my brother expects to have a play produced this autumn and my cousin, Faith Baldwin, is adding another to her long list of novels."

The Book: This is a novel of ordinary life, concerning ordinary people but it is by no means an ordinary book. This is the story of

JESSIE DOUGLAS FOX

'" lilt , ..,tltnJ, JIr."" placlI tlnd "t oP!'"

Elizabeth, her family and the friends with whom her life is involved. The novel opens in the setting of a small Hudson River town very much like Miss Fox's own Yonkers. The reader is introduced to a number of exceptionally well-drawn characters. There are Elizabeth's two sisters: determined, sprightly Rhoda , who wants to become a docto r, and crippled, gentle Nan , who aspires to writing poetry. In vivid contrast are the family tyrant, Aunt Myra, and the "good angel," Uncle Jo

Elizabeth, who adores to travel, has been

invited by her uncle to go to Europe, but Aunt Myra puts a stop to that by withdrawing her financial aid to the family. It means, too, that Elizabeth must secure a teaching position so that there will be sufficient money to send Rhod a to medical college. The scene moves to a girls' boarding school in Albany. Here Miss Fox shows her familiarity with the scene, for only one who has known the confini ng, inflexible life of such an institution, could have pi c tured it so well.

But, divertissement is soon to appear in the form of Rufus , a gay, irresponsible, but lovable young man. Their marriage is followed by the countless happinesses and tragedies that such a union would inevitably bring. Then into Elizabeth's life comes Stephenthe man who would have made her a depend. able, sterling husband. Rufus is deeply in love with Elizabeth and when there seems no way out of the predicament, the story moves to a swift and satisfactory conclusion . Elizabeth sets out at last upon her trip to Europe, but more important , she sets out upon her ·'Lovely Journey" of life. The title of the book is taken from Sara Teasdale's poem: You 1Z0 a long and lovely journey For all the stars like burning dew Are lum i nous and luring footprints Of souls adve n turous as you.

The Reviewers,' "An expertly written and entertaining story." Lisle Bell , New York Herald Tribune

"The author has a marked gift of understanding of life and a rare sense of portrayal from fi ctio n to life, in reality, as the reader thinks and lives with the people of 'Lovely Journey.' " L. J ., BOlton TranJcript.

DEATH BELOW THE DAM

By ESTHER HAYEN FON SECA, lfYisconsin A

The All/hor: After Esther Haven Fonseca completed her rece ntly published mystery, she started upon another entitled " The 1 3th Bed in the Ballroom." It has already been accepted and will appear sometime this winter under the Doubleday, Doran Crime Club imprint.

Mrs. Fonseca's family are indeed fraternity minded. Her mother is a Delta Gamma, her father a Delta Tau Delta, and, like their famous sister, Mary Haven Nelson and Anita Haven Frazier are members of Wisconsin

Alpha. In addition, the author is a member of Theta Sigma Phi, Phi Kappa Phi (women 's professional journalism fraternity) and Mortar Board . She is at present vice-president of the Chattanooga Alumn", Club.

Immediately after graduation, she and live com panions left for Europe. In England they met many members of Ramsay MacDonald's Cabinet, including Margaret Bondfield. They were entertained by Lady Astor at her Cliveden County home on the Thames and attended a reception given in honor of Lord

Balfour. They spent two months studying the position of women in industry in England while they lived at a settlement house in East India Dodcs region (Limehouse Nights dis· trict) and at various working gi r1s ' dubs in London, Manchester , and Birmingham .

Back in New York, she spent two years as instructor and lecturer for a calculating machine company. (She admits mathemati cs was always her weakest subject.) Then for additional experience, because she always be· lieved that someday she would write she "took a flyer at workins; in a department store" in Minneapolis for SIX months.

In 1928 she married David Fonseca, a Mex · ican of Spanish descent who holds degrees in engineering from University of Guadala· jara in Mexi co and the University of Illinois . Their two sons "one very dark and one very blond" were born during their three·year residence in Chicago. "When the depression hit the engineering business, we took to rural Wisconsin ," she revealed. "We spent one summer in a two-room house in the country experimenting with raising cele ry, but that was one of the drought years and even the stream in the swamp dried up, so we managed to raise only as much as we could water by pail--enough to eat and distribute to our friends -a nd was it good!

"April I, 1934, there was a heavy rain in our part of the state and a serious flood resulted, washing a way two dams and a bridge in the river near my home. This disaster was fortunate for us as it not only provided Mr. Fonseca with engineering work on the new bridge, but gave me the germ for the flood idea- the 6rst part of 'Death Below the D , am.

Mr . Fonseca is at present connected with the T.V A Mrs Fonsecas 6rst book was written while they lived on the top of Look· out Mountain. She explained how she managed to accomplish so much with two small sons. "Breakfast at seven, through at seventhirty, dishes stacked , beds made, and odds and ends picked up by eight, and then four hours of writing until noon, while the two boys, one six and one four, ran in the woods or played just outside the porch. Which meant that I must spend my afternoons doing housework, to the amazement, and probable consternation of my neighbors, who must have thought I was some kind of a freak to be shaking out rugs at three in the afternoon just when all proper southern women are sitting on the porch dressed in organdie, with

MRS DA VJD FONSECA

,

a fan and a cool iced drink. But the second book was written with the luxury of a maid."

The Book: If you want to bury yourself in a remarkably good mystery story, don't fail to read "Death Below the Dam." It has all of the hair-raising, terrifying thrills of a 6rstrate murder story, with two bodies instead of one, a broken dam, two washed out bridges, and an island cut off from the mainland, thrown in for good measure. Yet the horrors are not overdone. It is a well-balanced story and has a caref uHy constructed plot. All dues and intimations are satisfactorily disposed of and the interest is maintained to highest pitch throughout. Unless you peek into the last pages, which is strictly against the rules, you 'll never guess who did it . We've read a lot of mysteries and we thought we were quite adept at solving the murder before the characters did, but Mrs. Fonseca certainly fooled us this time . We hope you will be looking forward to "The 13th Bed in the Ballroom" as much as we are. Tip: "Death Below the Dam" is a grand book to give that myst'ry·loving husband or brother.

The Reviewer1,' "The author, who is , SO far as we know, a newcomer in the field of mystery 6ction , has succeeded not only in producing a thrilling story pf murder and detection but also in creating a set of char· acters who are real men and women, not

THE MAN OF THE STORM

By ETHEL HUESTON, I owa A

The Allth or: Many a time and oft, the name of Ethel Hueston has appeared in this department. But no one seems to have hea rd from her for several months. However, one

newest story fascinating reading from the first page to the l as t.

Perhaps you will remember that she and her Pi Phi pledge daughter retraced (by ca r to be sure) the steps of the Lewis and Oark Expedition . From this and from a vast amount of rese arch and study of journals and archives, grew the story of "The Star of the West." And now in " The Man of the Storm" she tells the story of John Colter, who dared to return west after the other members of the expedition went back to civilization.

There is romance, adventure, intrigue, a love story theme, brilliant bits of local color, well -drawn charac ters , and a plot written by history that is more exciting than most fiction.

Pretty Manuela , spirited Dona Teresa, the mysterious Tempete (the Man of the Storm , from whence the author got h e r title), the courageous Colter- all l eave their dusty places in forgotten archives and live once agai n by Mrs Hueston 's accomplished pen

may be assured that whatever her activities, she is doing something interesting and is no doubt gathering material for another book.

The Book: To our way of thinking 'The Man of the Storm" is the best book Ethel Hueston has written - and her previous ones were good stories indeed We found her

The Revie werJ: "If Mrs. Huesto n 's novel had done noth ing else, its existence would have been amply justified by her description of that brief dramati c interval in 1803 when, between the Spanish occupation and the conclusion of the Louisiana Purchase , St. Louis belonged once more to its French founders ." Margaret Wallace, New Y ork Time!.

"Tall yarns of the Lewis and Clark period and the excitement of the time are interestingly interwoven with facts and customs to make ' Man of the Storm ' a highly readable rom ance." Sprill gfie ld Republican

COME SUMMER

By VIR GINIA MCCARTY BARE, Vir ginia A

The Author: Virginia McCarty Bare, who is now living in Rye, New York, has Dved in countries as far separated as Scotland and Puerto Ri co, for her husband, who is a Presbyterian minister, has preached in many parts of the world. She has three charming children , whi ch probably accounts for the fine

way in which she has written this young people's book

She says she has always written and probably couldn't stop it if she tried. " I first drew blood," she wCltes, "when 1 was in high school with a jingle which won a cash prize in a packer' s contest M y effort was : ' Pigs

ETHEL HUESTON

is Pigs wherever they are, but ham's not ham till it's Star: Then again in college, I received a prize from literary magazine for a piece of nonsense ve rse called 'A Little Piece of Chicken Fell From Off the Stove One Day : But I di dn' t start writing continuously and professionally until about twelve years ago. Since then I have turned out a good many things, mostly girls' stories and essay -art ides for adults."

The B oo k: For ages 12 to 16. This very real and human story tells of the struggles and triumphs of Denise and Christopher Owen when they escape from under the wing of a domineering but well·meaning aunt to make a home for their young sister and brothers on the New Hampshire farm left them by their father

They work hard to make the little cott age livable: painting; doing all sorts of things they have never done before-lind · ing them haed but not impossible, experienc . ing the thrill of achievement . As a delightful contrast to all the hard work there are gay picnics with their friendly neighbors, the Barneses . village dances , the county fair, all novel' and exciting to the city bred Owens. Even the cold New England winter, to which they had looked forward with dread, has its novelty and fascination - Christmas and winter sports are high points. Denise has a few eventful days as the guest of Kim Barnes at the Dartmouth Winter Carnival , where she also sees again friends of the old carefree New York days

This fine story of the gaiety and courage with which a family of modern young people meets the problems and responsibilities of freedom, and of how, as a result of a serious disaster, they come to appreciate and under· stand their aunt , is interesting from start to finish, and is written with a chann and humor that make it delightful and satisfying reading .

T R evi t werJ,' "The reason Com e Sli m· mer is especially welcome is that, while there are many interesting well-written books for boys , books of adventure, popular science and fiction , strangely enough there are few e<J ually good books for girls of the same age Apparently it is a difficult art to prodvce bookS that are modern enough to appeal to

the dever, sophisti cated feminin e youngsters of today and yet are clean and idealistic

"The author of Co me Slimmer seems to have achieved a happy c ombinat ion-a series of intimate family jokes and small happenings, woven around a realJy serious experiment in living and a tender little love story that leaves one with a happy feeling, after finishing the book ." Port Ch ester Daily I tem .

The Book: The following publisher's state· ment gives an adequate description of this author 's book:

"The temptation to live vicariously is a strong impulse, often overpowering in its ap)?""1 to youth. It is eaSIer for the im· aglnation to accept ready -made reactions of others, described in books, than it is for the senses and the imagin a tion to res pond to original stimuli Au Experience C",.r;otlllln in En glish, 1936 report of the National Council of Teac hers of English.

"To the thousands of teachers who know this all too well, Miss Nelle Button offers her solution in CreaJive EngliIh. She makes pupils see, listen, touch, taste, observe; she makes simple and natural the recording of their impressions and observations. The amount of space in Creative EngliIh d e voted to exercises is, as you might suspect, far greater than that devoted to discussion. It is not a special course for the gifted few. It is English from the c reative point of view fo r all,-a review of essentials, a means of developing an appreciation of for cef ul, beautiful prose and verse, a chance for individual expression. Creative Eflglish catches between the covers of a book a kind of tea ching and

training that most teachers find decidedly elusive."

The Reviewers: " Once in a blue moon there comes to the reviewer ' s hands a book that is different, a book that challenges his attention and demands at least a modicum of his respect and homage. Su ch a book has recently come to the notice of this reviewer. The author's style is clear and unadorned and adapted to pupils at the secondary·school level. The section on the training of the senses is interesting and richly suggestive One longs for a writer courageous enough to tell in a specific way how our roseate dreams may become reality; how fine.spun theory can actually be reduced to practice. Here is a writer who emerges from her laboratory and, with no apology whatever, pres ents both her method and her produ ct. It is by no means bad product at that . The pupils' produc tions bear the stamp of sincerity, a sincerity distinctively adolescent. Glimpses of beauty there are-fugitive perhaps , but unmistakable evidence that youthful souls are trying the length of their wings ." Vin ce nt A.

Sacajawea of the Shoshones

By HELEN GOTToCHALK, Wyoming A

Dr. Grace Raym ond Hebard, a nOlice of whose death apptan under "In Memoriam/ ' gradnaled fr om Ihe VniverJily of Iowa, whert !he W O! affilialed wilh Pi Bela Phi.

FROM"rags to ric hes " is considered a lon g way up the social ladder in Ollr generation , but from the "haul" in a gambling game to the subject of a sc rap between states is even farther . And Sacajawea, the Shoshon e princess , traveled that trail.

In 1803 when President Thomas Jefferson made the purchase of the Territory of Loui si· ana, embracing 1 ,020,571 acres of land ,

thousands of hostile Indians, untold wealth, and herds of the now extinct buffalo , he chose to lead an expedition into that wilderness Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark , both leaders worthy of breaking the path in the west.

They traveled up the Missouri River, and upon arriving at the Mandan Indian villages, whidl were situated where Bismarck, North Dakota , now stands, they made final preparation for the penetration of the west.

Touissant Charbonneau, a French-Canadian trapper, was secured as a guide and with him c ame Sacajawea, his wife, whom he had grudgingly accepted as booty in a gambling game.

On February II, 1805 , while the party was yet in its winter 'Juarters, the little Shoshone woman gave birth to a boy. And on April 7 when the western expedition left, Sac ajawea went too, carrying her papoose on her back, Indian fashion. It was felt by Lewis and Clark that her presence would be' valuable because their itinerary led through Shoshone country and it might avert trouble.

At the outset no one realized her worth, yet it was her knowledge of wily rivers, hidden mountain passes, and Indian strategy that brought Lewis and Clark safe ly back from the Rockies . Had it not been for Sacajawea, they would have died many times.

After her heroic part in the expedition, the littl e Indian woman lived in comparative oblivion- for a while with the Comanches of Oklahoma and later with her own nationtill she died on April 8, 1884, on the Wind Riv e r reservation In Wyoming .

It is now, some fifty years later, that her g rave, in a wind-swept cemetery. devoid of trees , surrounded by tumble weeds, but facing the white -c apped Wind River range-becomes the scene of battle between Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming.

First, at the suggestion of the Honorable Joseph M Carey, Wyoming·s first senator to Washington, the government became interested in erecting a permanent monument to m a rk the grave of the woman -guide. This was later strengthened by the late Senator John B. Kendrick. Then the federal government appropriated $2 ,500 for the purpose, and immediately Wyoming's neighbors

pricked up their ears and claimed that SacaJawea was buried within their various boundaries

The possessive interest has becom e even greater as the appropriation has grown . At the present time, the fund appears to be nearing the $5,000 ma rk, bringlOg the states' individual claims to the foreground . OW' government, always a referee in such matters, has set the deciding fa ctor. The monument wi1l be erected within the state ' s border which can prove, by written evidence , that the mortat remains of the immortal Sacajawea lie buried within its borders.

Dr . Grace Raymond Hebard, department head of politi cal economy at the University of Wyoming. and prominent western historian , has the only written and evidence to prove Sacajawea is buned on the Wind River reservation in Wyoming.

The Reverend John Roberts , EpiscoJ'a1ian Missionary on the reservation, has In his parish records , the official statement of th e aeath of Sacajawea Dr. Roberts , who was at the time a young minister, conducted a Christian buriaJ over Sacajawea's grave on April 9, 1884, after the little old Indian woman was found dead the morning of April 9 on her "shakedown" of and blankets in her tepee. She had died during the night, alone, as she had often lived

When the argument arose regarding the ri ghtful place to erect the monument over the grave, Dr. Hebard requested that Dr . Roberts have a photograph taken of the actual record as it stands in the parish book. This he did, taking his volume of vital statistics to Lander, the nearest town, himself. H e watched the photographer take the picture, destroy the Ii 1m after the print was made, and

Ohad the picture sent to Dr Hebard All this precaution was taken so there would be no defacing the proof, thus facilitating the stealing of Wyoming ·s rightful possession.

This picture has been sent to Washington. If Wyoming receives the appropriation, Dc Hebard was intended to have the honor of designing the decoration of the memorial whith is to take the place of the small stone slab, now markin,R Sacajawea's grave .

Only last year, New York University nominated Sacajawea for one of the ten positions in the Hall of Fame of American Men and Women. Because she is relatively unknown in the East, she did not gain the position, but many years hence her name may occupy the nithe it rightfully possesses.

DR GRACE RAYMOND HEBARD AT THE GRAVE OF SACAJAWEA , SEPTEMBER 6. 19 26

Our Distinguished Dr. Mary Wolfe Pennsylvania Beta

By DR MARY BARTOL THEISS, Pet/nIy/vania B, Former ARROW Editor

(From T he BllrRne//i all)

THE election of Dr. Mary Moore Wolfe to the Bucknell Board of Trustees, not only brings additional' honors to an a1readydistinguished Bu cknell graduate, but gives to the University the benefit-of her great experience in executive and administrative offices . The selection of Dr. Wolfe for this position seems singularly appropriate, for not only is she a Bucknell graduate and a native of

Lewisburg, but also her forebears were the men who actually brought about the erection of the University . Their descendants through the generations have continu ed to be inter · ested in and connected with Bucknell, and this newly -erected relationship but serves to c ontinue and strengthen an old tie . After he r graduation from Bucknell in 1896, Miss Wolfe in 1899 received her degree in m e di ci ne from the University of Michig a n. A woman of unusual physical vigor, of unusual mentality, w ill power, and indu stry , she soon proved that she also had real executive force .

At 25, Dr. Wolfe was appointed an assistant physician in the Woman 's Department of the Norristown State Hospital in Pennsylvania . In two years she hacf been made chief physician . This position, which gave her her first wide experience with mental diseases , she resigned late in 1910 to open a private sanitarium.

This work Dr . Wolfe continued until 19t 4, when she was elected to the newlyc reated position of Superintendent of the Laurelton State Village, an institution for mentally defective girls and women, which as yet existed only on paper. It was Dr . Wolfe ' s task to erect the buildings, create a staff, plan the work of the institution, and administer everything . All this she did, and after 20 years of work, during whidl time she has built up a notable organization , she is still serving the state as head of the institution . The institution now includes 10 stone cottag es, housing nearly 700 girls, and five line barns, in addition to the farm col'ony layout. Last year the property was valued at $1,800,000, and the equipment, furnishings, and livestock at $160,000 .

Six months after the arrival of the nrst patient , Dr . Wolfe was fortunate in securing th e services of Miss Mary Van Uxem, of Columbia Univers ity , now Dr. Mary Van Uxem A trained psychologist , she began sc ientific studies with the very first patient. She has gone on making studies of every case that has been committed to the institution.

And that, to quote Dr. Wolfe, brings us to the matter of schooling and the Sears Roebuck catalogues. All these girls had g one to school before they came to us, and they all had had unpleasant experiences in school. These experiences became increasingly more unpleasant as the girls fell farther behind in their school work.

One day one of the girls brought to Dr . Van Uxem a Sears Roebu ck catalogue. Pointing to a pair of shoes on a page , she asked Dr . Van Uxem to order them for her. Dr. Van Uxem asked her why she wanted th a t particular pair, inquiring why she did not

select another pair on the page opposite, calling attention to the differen ce in price.

When the girl told Dr . Van Vxem that she could not read , the doctor asked her if she would not like to learn , remarking that then no one could fool her and that sh e would always get the worth of her money

The gid admitted that she would like to learn to read , and that was the heginn ing of a sc hool at the Village Today five teachers are

employed in the Village schools , two are graduates of normal schools and three of colleges. They teach the girls from the fourth to the eighth grades , just as they would he taught in the public schools, except that the classes are smaller.

Largely out of this mail -order house beginning, the Villages present parole requirements have developed. The first is the educational standard of the three " R·s." To he eligible for parole a giri' must he able to read , to sign her name, and to read signs. It is fine if she is also able to write a nice letter , but that is not required, though she must he able to read writing. She must, of course, be able to make change, so as to know whether she is getting the wages due her.

Not only does the Village have a good library, but it is also well patronized Only one state institution in Pennsylvania has a larger proportion of its girls withdrawing books

To he eligible for parole a girl must also he trained in industry She must he able to practice three trades so well that she can he self-supporting at anyone of the three She

must know how to cook , to laun de r, an d to do dining -room work or housework. Sewing is enc oucaged also, hut not required , as SO many a rtides can he purch ased rea dy·mad e Knitt ing, crocheting , an d f ancy wor k, too, are enc ouraged . to employ le isure time .

Girls have been on parole, a nd 8 5 per cen t o f these paroles have heen success ful. At the end of five years the pe r ca pita cost of the 19 4 girls paroled had saved th e state

$65,000 , less the cost of the parole officer. Besides , the paroled girls have heen selfsupporting and most of them have small' bank accounts, for they are taug ht thrift. Today, out of 68 0 girls 6 6 or ten per cent are on pacole.

Under the old law the training of the Village girls was to be principally agricultural. Many of these paroled continue to live on farms or in small towns . So at Laurelton the girls do all the lighter types of agricultural work . They raise garden truck, care for , and milk the cattle, take care of the sheep and the chickens, all under the supervision of a woman truck gardener or a farmer. The most important requirement for parole is that the girls must have social adaptation- the ability to live in the world WIthout getting into trouble.

Naturally Dr . Wolfe 's interests are widespread Professionally she is active In 1906, whHe Dr Wolfe was chief physician at Norristown, she was one of 10 alienists re9uested by a Congressional investigation committee to inspect the Government hospital for the insane at D C. , and to testify

LAURELTON STATE VillAGE . PENNSYlVANIA

as to its general condition and the efficiency of its administration. In 1907 the Federal government sent her to Amsterdam, Holland, as one of five delegates representing the United States, to attend an International Congress on Nervous and Mental Diseases. In 1933 she was elected vi ce·president of the American Association on Mental Deficiency , and in June, 1934, she was ele cted president of that organization.

Dr. Wolfe has been identified with the State Federation of Pennsylvania Women, the Daughters of the Amer ica n Revolution, the Women 's Christian Temperance Union, the Pennsylvania Council of Republi can Women, the Business and Professional Women of Pennsylvania, and has been president of the General Alumna:: Association of Bu cknell University. In addition to rece iving her B.A . degree in 1896, Dr. Wolfe gained a Buc knel!- A.M. in 1900. In 1933 Bucknell conferred upon Dr . Wolfe the degree of Sc. D .,

this being the second time in 87 years that an honorary doctorate has been conferred upon a woman by Bucknell. Dr. Wolfe is also a member of the Woman 's Legislativ e Coun· ci l of Pennsylvania. All these interests are ourward and visible signs of Dr Wolfe ' s continued belief in the practice and the value of social service.

Three of Dr. Wolfe's grandfathers were among the 10 founders of Bucknell University. One great uncle. a physician, was chair· man of the original board of trustees Anoth e r great uncle, also a trustee, in 1845 made the tedious trip from central Pennsylvania to Providence, R.I . , to consult President Francis Wayland, of Brown University, as to the best ways of developing a Baptist college in lewisburg

Corne of pioneer stock, Dr Wolfe, too, has pioneer, forward looking ways . Her presence in the Board of Trustees should mean much to Bucknell and to Bucknell women

Found e rs' Day in Los Angeles this year had as its outstanding feature the appearance of a group of twelve girls from California rand .6. chapters in the costumes of the sixties. As each girl stepped into the frame a short sketch of the life and personality of the Founder whom she represented was read . After the last one, all twelve walked throu g h the frame and stood as " Speed Thee My Arrow " was sung.

A Pi Phi Goes to Pitcairn

B1 DoROTHY BRANDON, On/aria A*

Yacht }' ankee, January 10, 1934

WE ARRIVED in Wreck Bay at Chatham Island on Christm as afte rnoon , having crossed the equator the day before The Galapagos IslMds b<long to Ecuador and are situated directly on the equator. They are 900 miles from Panama , and 2500 miles from Pitcai rn Island , so they are indeed iso lated from the rest of the world.

Whatever their origin may be, they a re very strange I sland s. \'(I ate r is sca rce on them so, except in the rainy season . when the shoot forth sprouts and a scrubby grass comes up, the vegetatio n is almost negl igible and the land has an arid appea rance. High up in the hilts , where it sp rinkl es now and then, there are trees of a sort. and some orange and lemon groves. From the sea the islands are very similar in appearance-working up to one large cone, with dozens of dead craters on the sides of the hills, and many lower peaks. Chatham Island has a fair water supply and has attracted people for years and years. It was the headquarters for pirates in bu ccaneering days, whalers caHed there and several expedi tio ns ca me out expressly for th e purpose of catching the galapagos, the huge land turtles after which the islands are named Tn quote William Beebe, ''They are one of the few places on the earth where aboriginal man neve r existed; there surely

is no other pla ce where man has so much adventured , . ."

The only people on the islands have been drawn to them by one scheme or anoth e r and t hey a re a queer lot. O ri gi nally the Ecuador government used the Galapagos as a pe nal colony; then more Ecuadorians came for ag ri cultu ral purposes. and there was a Norwegian expedition abou t seve n years ago. On Chatham {sland there a re about th ree hundred Spanish lookin g inhabitants livi ng in adobe huts In an "H ac ienda" under the most primitive of ci rcumstances.

We anchored for a day about Va mile from shore and gathe red together all the horses we co uld get. Eight of us went off early in the morning in a rainy drizzle which got worse and worse as we went on. We rode all over the island , ending at lun cheo n time at the only decent looking place we saw-and there we, found an am az in g coup le living a life qUite alone, as the rest of the islanders are Senora Cabos is a young Norwegian gl.rl who came with the expedition and married Senor Cabos, an Ecuadori an whose father wa s a brutal governor of the penal co lony and was murdered by the co nVictS. The young man was educated in Paris and has been to Londo n and New York . Th ey have two ch ildren who were born there with no medical aid, and they have a sizeable frame house. They were most cord ial to us, invit ing us to both lun cheon and dinner-and such a !'Ileal as she for us. away up there m lava hIlls WIth p ract ically no co nventence! soup in it (a potato-like ve.getable) , broiled chIcken , dressing, and fned .P"t atoes, a dish of rice and fried plantaIn, and a delicious dessert of a mixture of yuca and eggs, fried in deep fat a nd served with An through the meal we had Norwegian bread , especially made for and t ea with lemon . We had to leave n g ht after the m ea l as it was getting dark and we had a delightful hour's ride down to the h a rbor in the dusk.

Then we moved to our next island Floreane . There are only three fa milies and if you ca n believe it, they are not on speaking term s with each other. We met two of the families and heard of the third. I must tell you about the two we saw.

They are both, according to them, escaping from the shams of civilization and ace getting back to nature. But they are approaching it from two entirely different points of view. The first group consists of Baroness von Wagner (authentically so) -a bout forty and very plain-with her young and handsome lover , Robert Philipson from Berlin . It is hard to understand the co mbination . With them is another German who does the cooking. We walked up to their place, five or six mil'es up the hill over terrible Java . Our feet were nearly torn to bits and the walk took us three hours. When we arrived the people were more than cordial and invited us to supper. They have done wonders with the place and are bringing their knowledge of CIvilization to the ishnd. She knows a lot about agriculture and architecture and out of practically nothing they have made a wonderful garden with everything in it from beans to ce lery. Thei r water trickles down through a ro ck in the hill and they have to water the place night and day. They have orange and lemon trees and are growing bananas and papayas, too. Also they have ducks, chickens, dogs, and rabbits, and everything is so orderly. Their house is very s imple , but will be improved upon in time. The only things they have to ,get from else where are Rour, sugar, and kerosene. Otherwise they live off the soil, killing wild cattie and hogs for meat, and using donkeys as beasts of burden. They seem happy in their little oasis in the midst of so much barren land and are planning to stay there the rest of their lives.

The other family was quite different, fanatics prompted by some strange Chinese cult to leave civilization and Jiv e alone. They are a Dr. Ritter from Berlin and a strange looking woman, not his wife , who is h alf paralyzed and has lost her upper teeth. They found a little spring nearer to the sea than the baroness and about 2 Y2 hours' walk from h<r place. Unlike her, they have brought no ideas of western agriculture with them, but prefer to live on what is already on their little oasis. Also, their creed forbids them to eat meat and cooked foods, so they make a diet of raw eggs and raw bananas, papayas, and pineapple. However, we noti ced that when they came to the boat for dinner they ate heartily all that we had, including turtle steaks.

Much has happened since the last time I wrote to you. Nearly a month has passed and we have covered over 3,000 miles. We were

twenty-one days exactly under sail between the Galapagos Islands and Pitcai rn, and we enjoyed every minute of the sail. We had wonderful weather, although for a few days the winds were lighter than we could have asked for. However, we made fai r1y good time, and delightfully cool nights were a boon after rather hot days.

Then, two days ago, we sighted Pitcairn Island. The night before, a terrific wind blew up and we had a squally night. The boys hardly had any sleep and toward morning it started to pour rain. About five o 'clock , through the mist and rain, we suddenly saw the island ahead of us towering a thousand feet out of the sea . It was a wonderful sight, after so many weeks of nothing-not even another ship-but water and sky. It was awfully rough and we rolled around like a co rk. The captain had the boys lower the mainsail and we were "hove to," hoping that the islanders cou ld venture out on such a day to get us , because the seas are so high and the landing so perilous that to land in a ship's dinghy is impossibl e! We were about a mile from the shore at the time, and could see the tops of the houses amidst the tall cocoa nut palms on the hillside. About 6:30 we saw two sails near the shore and re alized that boats were coming out after all. When they were about 200 yards from the Ya nkee, they dropped sail and took to the oars, and we could see that the 37 foot boats, with beams of 7 or 8 feet, were cro wded with men. Such a crew as you never saw! They certainly looked like pirates in their old clothes, with their unshaven faces and missing teeth. They shouted to us in their old·fashioned English and raced to reach the ship. With one accord they leapt on board and for a while we seemed swamped with these English-Polynesians. ] wonder if you've read "Mutiny on the Bounty "? If you have you'U know about the islanders. ]n case you haven't, l'll tell you a bit about them and you must read the rest.

In 1779, Fletcher Christian mutinied on the British ship BOllnty and put Captain Bligh with 18 men aBoat in a launch. He , Christian, took the B ount] to Tahiti, where several of the men remained . He with 8 m en took the ship, a native wife apiece, and several natives with their wives, and they settled on Pitcairn Island , which wasn't on the charts and where they would be safe from British law. He burnt the ship. The men, in the next few years, were in one way or another exte rmin ated except for Alexander

Smith (John Adams). who, the only white mm left, with several natives md children of the mixed marriages, started a little community, estabNshed a church with the Church of England prayer book, and taught the people agriculture . And two days ago, it was the descendants of the mutineers who leaped on deck and spoke to us in their 18th century English. In the 146 years, only a few new names have: been introdu ced into the island and the new blood has all come through men as no woman has been reported to have mar· cied into the clan. Despite this continual intermarriage, the race does not seem to have degene rated except for the poor teeth, which may be due to diet ; and the 200 people living on the island today seem to compare favorably mentally and physically with 200 people elsewhere. They still speak Engl ish, but between themselves they have a patois of English and Tahitian.

The men wore all kinds of dothes : some in captain 's hats, some in naval coats, sailors' middies, old shirts, overalls, dungarees , etc., and most of them had on quaint looking high straw hats. They turned out to be very friendly and urged us to come asho re. They came below and played our victrola and laughed and chatted like old friends. One man asked me if I had any later gave me a handmade cane for a small bottle of eau de cologne. At breakfast the Skipper announced that the three girls and half the boys would go ashore in the morning and the rest could go in the evening when the first half returned. He asked Exy and me if we would stay the night on shore to get information for their story. We were excited at the prospect and packed a little bag to take along. It was still pouring rain and the waves were easily twenty feet high when we jumped from the bulwarks of our yacht into their long boatwhen we were alI' in there were 39 people in the one small boat! Then the most exciting ride of my life followed_ We rode the billows, ri ght close to the rocky shore, with the men seven to a side and one steering in the stern It reminded me of pictures of old viking days. We slipped between high rocks and the waves piled up on the island to our left, but we were not at all nervous , because these men and their fathers before them had manned similar boats for 146 years.

I'll never forget the picture we saw as we rounded a point and found the landing place ahead. On the shore were thatched huts <overing the boats. and on the rocks around were

crowds of children ; high up on top of the cliff under the cocoanut palms were more people; and severat ran down the steep ,ath to meet us _ The actual landing was one 0 the deverest feats ] have ever seen . The boat was steered through the narrowest channel imaginable and we rode into the beac h on the c rest of a wave. 11le men lifted us out on the shore and we were welcomed by the beaming faces and friendly salutes of the islanders . Boats come every so often to the island now. but it had been years since any passengers had come ashore , so the islanders were as pleased and excited as w e were They showered us with invitations to come to their homes and looked like disappointed children when we had to refuse.

It fell to Exy' s and my lot to stay with Ada and Edgar Christian , two pillars of the community. They are all called by their first names because of there being so few surnames. .Ada is middle aged and was dressed in a simple gingham dress and a funny old-fashioned hat. She had a beautiful smile and one of the kindest faces I have ever seen. Before I left I felt that she was a "Lady" in every sense of the word She managed her household with su ch ease and never once raised her voice. She was a perfect hostess and the milk of human kindness was certainly in her soul. I should add here that the Seve n th Day Adventists have .sent missionaries to the island for years and that the people have a fa ith that carries them through at! kinds of troubles. Before I visited Pitcairn I despised the missionary movement, but sin ce seeing what their interpretation of Christianity and their faith mean to them, I have Changed my mind. They don't drink or smoke and their attitude of brotherliness is amazing. They center their social as well as religious life around the church and they practice what they preach- "Do unto others as ye would be done by" A personal God, so real to them, is a necessity in their life. During all these years nothing has happened to shatter thei r faith They ding to their Saturday Sabbath, their attitude toward pl'easure, their awaiting Christ's coming they taught me how 200 people can live together in a truly Christian spirit.

To return to the day's experiences . We walked up the steep path to the town on the hill followed by the men and children, and were met by the women at the top . It was there that Ada met us and invited us to spend the day with her. We said good-bye to the rest of the crew and followed our hostess-

the others w ent off with different members of the community. OUf house was on the ou t· skirts of the "town" and commanded a beautiful view of the sea through the palms. The houses are all alike so a desc ription of Ada's will suffice. They are f came structures with tin roofs, where the rain water pours down and is directed by a leader into the cement lined tank The islanders depend on rain for their water supply except for one spring which is used only in an emergenc y. Then the kitchen is a separate little building. Stone ovens are used, and heavy iron pots and pans. And one utensil whi ch we noticed in every house was the cocoanut and potato scraper, fitted onto a saw-horse-like stool. The main house is very simple with a sparsely furnished living room and the number of bed rooms required. In practi cal1y every house there is an organ and the walls are hung with religious pictures and texts.

During the morning many townspeople kept dropping in and they were anxious to hear all about our tri p. The wom e n are rather a poor looking lot . Their teeth are missing in practically ev ery case and they have bad figures. Like the men , they go barefooted, so their feet are broad and very hardened. However, they are kindly and friendly and they made a good impression on us. After a while Ada suggested that we go for a walk , so we started out between raindrops and made a tour of the tru ly tropical village of "Adamstown ." The streets are paths through!alms, banyan trees, oleanders. frangipani an other tropi c al trees, so you can imagine the beauty of the place The houses are nearly hidden amongst this tropi ca l growth and they are located in layers up the hillsides, on top of whi ch is the community garden where every man has his plot to farm In the center of the town are the church and administration building on either side of a square where the big bell is located We were shown the rudder of the B 0 1l1l11 whi ch had j us! been found At every house we were greeted warmly and given fruit. and on our return to Ada's, had a wonderful meal of bean soup, chi cken (both boiled and fried) served with sweet potatoes and a salad of tomatoes, onions, and scraped cocoanut. Also there was a plate of delicious raw carrots and dozens of aeli cious homemade rolls . For dessert we had " Yankee pie," their nam e for pumpkin pie, and an arrowroot puddingserved with cocoanut milk . We had a drink s imilar to Postum , made of burnt bran , and cocoanut milk was used

again . After dinner the others had to go back to the shi p sO Exy and I scrambled down the hill to see them off The boats were laden with bananas , watermel'ons, snow fruit, mangoes, passion fruit, musk melons, pineapples , pumpkins, and other things-gifts to us in payment for some canvas, salt pork, and kerosene whi ch the Skipper gave them And the c rew, too , were laden with gifts of baskets, hats , boxes, and the novelties made by the islanders.

Exy and I , accompanied by the missionary, visited more peop l e in the afternoon, including old Aunt Anne, aged 84, and her sister, the Widow Butler, the oldest people on the island They told fascinating tafes of the early days. Then we had supper with a "Young" family After supper the bell rang and we were told th at there was to be a special song service in our honor. So we went down to the church and were ushered onto the platform with the missionaries and the choir. The church soon filled with the islanders and the singing began after an opening r.rayer. To see these hard looking, dark comp exioned men singing to their hearts ' delight " Jesus Knows" and "Crown Him with Many Crowns " was really an inspiration. They nearly brought the roof dow n , SO loudly did they sing. And the harmony was quite wonderful.

After the service we re turned to Ada's and had a good night's s leep in not too bad a bed , which was spotlessly dean Just before saying goodnight, she gave us two glasses and a pitcher of lemonade.

We woke up at seven the next morning to find that the men had already gone to the hills, so Exy and I had our breakfast alone We had seven different kinds of fruit, some English biscuits, and the bran dr ink again. And after another stroll around the town and an hour spent with Hilda, Ada's daughter. in the kitchen. we had ano the r delicious meal . This time the "piece de resistance " was green banana pancak es served with sugar cane syrup At last we had to bid our kind friends , adieu and we started down the hill with every con ceivable kind of fruit in bags and all sorts of presents. We had had Betty send back some thIngs from the boat the night before which charmed the womenfolk - two dresses, soap, perfume, etc. We were carried into the long boa ts by the men and started off, accompanied by several of the women . Half way out to the yacht they raised the sails and we literally tore along in the breeze-over forty of us in a 35 foot boat. At last the ship was

reached and we were handed on board It was tenibly rough and the poor souls who had come out with us were deathly ill. Finally we said good-bye to them and they piled into their two boats . Su ch a sight ; I shall never

forget them as they sailed back to theIr isolated island home, the man in the bow waving his white hat and all of them singing at the top of their voices " God be with you, till we meet again ."

Apple ton Luncheon

AGATHERIN G of Pi Phis in a part of the country that is without an organized alumnre group was the luncheon given by the girls in the vic inity of Appleton, Wisconsin, on August 19, 1936, at the Riverview Country Club, in Appleton, in honor of Adele Taylor Alford , ARROW Editor. then convalescing in Theda Clark Memorial Hospital, in Neenah, Wisconsin, and her daughter, Adele Alford Heink , former pledge of California 6.. Conven tion was the principal topic, since three of those present had attended_ The organization of an alumnre club to take in the whole Fox River Valley was discussed , since in addition to the names

given here there are also possible members in Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Neenah. and Green Bay, all within a radius no larger than is covered by several of our regional dubs.

Among those present were: Mrs. F. F. Wheeler (Georgene Pearsall). Appleton. Wis., California A ; Mrs. A. M.

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

Edited by CHARLOTTE CROPLEY BROWN, Verm ont B

TEN YEARS OF ARROW CRAFT

TH E current Pi Beta Phi year seems to be one significant for Setdement School anniversaries. First to appear is the tenth anni · versary of Arrow Craft Shop ; later months will bring the School's own twenty-fifth anniversary.

Arrow Craft's rise to a preeminent po s ition amo ng Amer ican handicraft cente rs is the result of an ever-increasing loy alty on the part of Pi Beta Phi-s members throughout the cou ntry and Pi Beta Phi's workers throughout the 'Burg. Then, too, a number of handicraft experts have give n to the Shop the benefit of their special training. Small wonder that the present weaving-teacher encouraged our weavers this past spring to prepare a special anniversary towel with a motif of ten light ed candles.

In a report to the Convention preceding 1926 Miss Evelyn Bishop said, ·The baskets and weaving we have for sale are in Mrs. Dowell·s room in the attic. Not the least of our troubles is to find a place to store and pack, as well as to sell, the baskets. The ousiness has grown until it really would keep one person busy all the time if it were handled as it should be." Today the Shop is attractively housed in the School's first building, the remodeled schoolhouse. The weaving department is set up nearby in the stone buifding

which earlier housed the woodcraft department. Their staffs include four full-time workers and many assistants. Besides , there is a branch shor in the lobby of the Mountajn View Hote with an extremely able manager there. And in 1936 all of these workers are busy all of the time.

Twelve months' industrial income in that pre-1926 year had amounted to $4,981. For the twelve months preceding the 1936 Convention net sales were reported as $25,830.72. Edgewater Beach sales alone, the largest in Convention history, amounted to $1,456 77. Since then Arrow Craft's manager has reported August, 1936, the best month in local retail history, with over $1,600 in cash sales.

That the development of Arrow Craft h as remained altruistically worth while in the ten years of its rapidly expanding business is perhaps best illustrated by quoting an official of the Southern Highla nders in Norris, who said in September of this year, " Recently I asked a member of the Pi Beta Phi staff at Gatlinburg what proportion of her weavers were at or near the relief level. She indignantly declared that none of them were, which brought to me fOr<:eful recognition of the value of Pi Beta Ph i work in that area."

The Southern Highlanders

By PAUL JOHNSON

IT WAS in 1931 th at the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild was formed. A voluntary association of produ ce rs of fine handicrafts in the area of the Southern Highlands, this organization dedi ca ted itself to the maintenance of highest quality in handicraft production. The Guild has since 1931 operated its cooperative retail shop, the Allanstand Cottage In dustries, in Asheville, North Carolina_ Handic raf ts of all the members of the Guild are placed for display and sa le in this shop, the profits from which are employed in the work of the Guild , as determined by the members.

In May, 1935 , an organization of equal significance was formed The Southern Hig hland ers, a coope rative co rporation organized under the laws of the state of Tennessee, has broad powers. Its purposes include marketing of all types of Southern Highland handicrafts, both in tourist shops and in metropolitan areas; creation of a design counsel service by mean s of which styling, designing and market information may be made available to handicraft producers; providin g a research service for the solution of production problems ; and in creasing the economic well being of all producers of handicrafts in the area of the Southern Highlands.

A retail shop of the Southern Highlanders

is operated at the Norris Dam of the Tennessee VaHey Authority, and there is also one near Chattanooga, Tennessee. Here the handicraft products of the region have been presented to thousands of tourist s and visItors. Weavings , woodcarvings, pottery, and other fine handi c rafts have been carried to all parts of the country.

On May I, 1936, Southern Highlanders opened its shop unit o n the lower concourse of the Internat ional Building, Rockefeller Center, New York City. H andicrafts a re here assembled in wider range than has ever before been possible. Their use in modern home decoration schemes has been emphasized This display is realizing one of the foremost dreams of handicraft p roduce rs, in proving that Southern handicrafts embody both the tradition of finest workmanship and the c haracter whidl makes th em possess a modern, living beauty and usefulness.

Numbered among the members hip of Southern Highlanders are almost all of the members of the Southern Highland H andic raft Guild* -schools, workshops, individuals, coope rative groups.

• Arrow Craft Shop belongs to both the Southern Highland Han dicraft Guild and the Southern H iJ;l:hlanders, Incorporated .

SOUTHERN HIGHLANDERS' SHOP, NORRIS DAM

The Weavers' Guild Play

By EVELYN BISHOP

NEWS came to me, "The Weavers' Guild is writing a play, rehearsals are about to begin, the play will be given early in July. " There was no need to add that the women were having a grand time writing it and that we must be sure to go. I had seen two original productions that Homemakers classes had put on in years past and knew well that thIS one would be worth the trip from Norris to Gatlinburg.

Tbe program, when the gala night finally arrived, read as foHows:

UGHTENING THE loAD

An Original Thru An Pia, Pres,,,t,a 8, The Gallinburg Well""'; Glli!d Act I. October, 1898

Scene: H ome of Mrs . Nancy Burns on lonesome Creek where her ne ighbors have come to a workin'.

Act II . Spring of 1930

Scene: Living-room in the home of Mr. and Mrs Joe Arnold in Gatlinburg Act III. Spring of 1938

Scene 1. College room o f Jewel Hamilton . Scene II September, 1938 Living-room of :I home in Gatlinburg . where Jewel lives .

The cast of cha ra cte rs is too long to bear reprinting, but the names , chosen by the actresses for themselves, were particularly interesting.

A deep plot was not necessary . There was

just the story of the changes that had come to individual families and to the community since the School had come, and the later changes when the Park had given employ. ment to the men. The first act was the one that created the most interest. It is hard to say which of the women wrote it. Miss Red· ding had to keep pruning it down, for at each rehearsal the women would think of more to add- bits of old mountain super· stition or philosophy, sayin$s which amused them as much as the aud ience. The older women had reaUy experienced many of the things related in this act of the play, and as true to the times were the stage settings, for the loom, wheel, dye pots, and costumes had been in use by the actresses or thei r neigb· bors in years past. The second and third acts seemed to follow real happenings so closely and were done so naturally that they ap· pea red to be merely the recounting of the story of the past few years.

Personally, my greatest en joyment was in seei ng the thoroughly good t ime the act resses and the audience were having. Old and young paid little attention to the terrific heat of the room that evenjng. The auditor ium was packed and it was indeed a Gatlinburg audie nce. The play was full of humor and local colm, a nd I think we all hoped the weavers were really sincere when they said as soon as the curtain went down o n their l ast act, "Le t's do another one next year!"

Report of the 1936 Settlement School Committee Meeting

By LI LLIAN B ECK H O LTON, Chairman

TH E Settlement School Com mittee spe nt the week of July 7 to 14 at the Schoo l for the annual Committee meeting. Lillian Beck Holton (Mrs. E. 1.), the new chair· man , pre sided and M arie Baco n H agee (Mrs G. M.) was made secretary. Josephine McCleverty continues as treasurer. Charlotte Brown was made editor of News from Little Pigeo n and Jeffries Green Pace (Mrs. E. M.) was put in cha rg e of publicity and dub programs. Mrs. H agee an d Mrs Pace are new members of the Committee .

Reports g iven by the director, p rincipal , Arrow Craft director, nurse, and other members of the staff showed that the past year was o ne of g reat accomp lishmen t. Conferences wit h people of the community showed that our work is still g reatly needed and g reatly app reciated. Conferences with county and state brought out the cooperation of the School with these officials and their intent to continu e to help in furthering our work.

Th e additio n of the fourth year to th e

high school was decided uron and that necessitated the equipment 0 a chemistry laboratory in the high school building. The additional teacher will be paid by the county. This position, as well as three vacancies caused by resi gna tions, was filled.

A more efficient plan of production for Arrow Craft, presented by the weaving supervisor, was adopted. Needed repairs were decided upon. The management of the farm and the plan of production were discussed with Mr . King who will have charge of the agriculture in addition to being principal this year. Closer contacts with the Magazine Agency, the Grand Vi ce -President, and the Province Vi ce- Presidents were J'lanned. Miss Onken was again made Gran Council advisor to the Committee.

An inspection trip to the Southern Highlanders ' Shop at Norris Dam was made. The Committee greatly enjoyed the Weavers' play which the weavers wrote and presented lor us under the direction of Gene Redding. The tea given by the GatI-inburg Alumn", Club was another delightful event, as was the dinner given by Stella Huff at the Hotel. On each of these occasions, as well as in regular sessions, the Grand Vice-President joined the Committee.

GOOD USE OF THE FELLOWSHIP!

A letter to Miss Onken from Frances McNulty , who hetd the Pi Beta Phi Fellowship in 19 30-31: 1 thought you might be interested to know that 1 am to teach English at Hollins College this yea r. Of course, the work would never have been open to me if I had not stud ied for a Master's Degree, and I could not have done that without the help of the Pi Phi Fellowship. 1 ca nnot possibly tell you and all of Grand Council, in words , how much the experience of studying at Columbia meant. Even now , five years later , I am still

discovering what an inspiration it was to be! Not only to help me to find congenial work , but in many ways which do not show on the outside ; acquaintance with interesting people , books and music, and countless ideas for teac hing.

"1 haven ' t written much lately except some verse in the Lyric , the New York Times, and the JU11ior L eague Ma gazine I took a fascinating writing course this year at Bread Loaf (Middlebury 's summer English School in the Green Mountains)."

SUCCESS BECOMES A TRADITION

The successful does not pledge anybody just to fill tne nouse. group has learned that sooner or later a large number must be discarded and they are a fri-'\:htful drag while affiliated. Pledge training and discipline definitely related to initiation. A large initiation class means a large active cnapter and a correspondingly large number return· ing to school each fall.

The writer recently discussed with a tra veling secretary the reason for the unusually long period of success enjoyed by a chapter of his Fraternity, the secretary suel!esting that success had become a tradition in the chapter. Of course, it takes some·

thing to crea te a tradition and to keep it alive. The real :.nswe r is that the membtrs of this chapter are so keen about the Fraternity that they work dili · gently to maintain its high standard of performance; they know how to entertain; they subject their pledges to ri gid, but wise, discipline and give them a thorough training; they initiate a large percentage of each class, and, above all, the active cha pter provides the pled-,\:es with a living example 01 wha t a "ood chapter is lil!e.

Approximately 200 of/oung college women writers, members 0 Theta Sigma Pi , national honorary and professional journal · ism society for women , went to Texas for the bien ni al national convention of that or · ganization. They were guests of the Uni· versity of Texas chapter and the Austin Alumna chapter, June L8 , 19 and 20.

It is interesting to recall that there are men who are members of sororities and worn· en who are members of fraternities. Dr . Richardson of the University of Arkansas is listed as a founder of Chi Omega while General John J . Pershing is a full fledged member (in good standing , too) of Delta D elta Delta; George Banta Sr. helped found Delta Gamma (and wrote the first constitution) and was made a member of that sorority; Eleanor Payn e's father is a member of Alpha Delt a Theta. Lucy Pat t ee of beloved Sig AJph memory was an initiated member of Sigma Alph a Epsi Ion in token of her services in saving valuable Sigma Alpha Epsilon docume nts du ring the Civil War. and Betty Locke, founder of K appa Alpha Theta, was offe red membership in Phi Delta Theta. Are there others ?- The Fraternity Month

VALUE OF A DELTA GAMMA MOTHERS' CLUB

1. It is a means of secu rin g home cooper· ation in promoting the rules and policies of the Fraternity.

2. It affords an opportu ni ty for the mothers to become acquainted with each other and with the members of the chapter. and provides a reliable means of giv ing mothers inform ation concerning the chapter and the Fraternity .

3 . It secures the interest and assista nce of mature minds in the welfare of the chapter .

4. An organized mothers ' club is in a position to be of great finan c ial assistance to the chapter.

5 . It can assist in entertaining and rush· ing.

6. An enthusiastic interested Delta Gamma mother is the finest kind of Delta Gamma "publi c ity ,"-Th e AI/ ch ora of Delta Gamma .

How Do WE RATE?

8 ) Lo ui se Leo nard , A r .0. . N a fiOflai Panh t lltnic Ddtgalt

Last sJ'ring, when fall rushing plans were already In the a i r, there came to my desk by chan ce one of the prevai lin g booklets which are prepared for the information and edifi· catio n of the presumably uninformed rush· ees who invade the campuses each fall. Per· sons will disagree concerning the details of what should go into such bookJets, but it has always seemed to me that fraternity good taste is as valuable a re<Juisite as personal good taste. Therefore it was with a distinct shock that I read among the " Do you knows" of this booktet prepared by a chapter of a fraternity other than my own the startling query "that fraternity ranks lirst of all the N.P.C. fraternities because of .It The reasons , which could easily be refuted by one with a Panhellenic background. I omit since the identity of the fra· ternity in question is not pertinent to the prescnt discussion.

A universal besetting si n of the human race is ta lk ing too much. Most of us love to talk and it is impossible to tal k a great deal' and not have a goodly amount of that talk worthless. With some of us a stronger desig nation must be used, dubb in g ou r wo rd s harmful or even vicious . This is especially true in any superficial discussion of the rela· tive rating of the N P C. groups. Supposedly we h,,'e all long since put away childish

things. Why then shou ld we resort to the methods of pre-kindergarten days when we Bounced our starched s kirts , switched our pigtails , and figuratively, if not actually , stuck out our tongues and hurled as the fi · nal dinching argurnent-"Well, my father c an buy me ail' the ponies I want ?"

There are twenty-three member fraternities of N.P.C., each of them known as a general , social , college fraternity . Th e chapter rolls of the twenty-three vary in length and in importance. When you think of the collective ages of these organizations there comes to you, if you are of a mathematical turn of mind, an amazing comprehension of the thousands who are members of one or another of the twenty-three. Obviously, in spite of frat ernity magazines, bulletins, newsletters, and the many other means employed for keeping in touch with members, it would be impossible to keep them all informed on every phase of fra· teenity progress and present day trends in fraternity living. It is even impossible to be certain that some over-zealous undergraduate won't lose sight of the fundamentals of her Greek education given her during her pledge·training days.

Each of the twenty -three N.P . C . fraternities is founded on ideals which dedicate its members to service and to honor and uprightness in all human rel at ionships . Each fraternity was founded because it was felt that within its cirde deep friendship and high endeavor could be more easily fostered than without the bond of ritual. One f raternity could not possibly give membership to all who wished it and retain the close association which is an essential' for the forwarding of its highest aims, It would all seem very simple then to think that one fraternity being good, and there being plenty of students to fill the ranks of twenty-three fraternities, the twenty-three would be just what was needed _ And, since the problems of all twenty-three must be approximately the same, there would out of thiS similarity of lurpose grow a solidarity whi c h would ten toward and understanding among the indiVidual chapters of those fraternities in working together . But the usual picture is quite different . There are campuses on which a really Panhelleni c spirit prevails--where those chapters that, through some turn of the wheel, are undergoing a lean period are really given a helping hand, sympathy expressed for their present hard

luck , and their good points enlarged upon in co nversation . In gene ral the campuses after rushing remind one who views them with a discerning eye very much of battle fields whereon national, chapter , and individual reputations lie torn in shreds without regard to truth or consequences, so long as the letter of the college Panhelleni c rules is preserved. Theoretically eve ryone deplores the methods used in rushing, but we all go on year after year building up a more elaborate and compJi cated and devastating system of competition which completely und e rmin es ana at least temporarily an nihilate s the finer qualiof interfraternity relationships . Nothing m the whole system is more vicious than the comp l ete Jack: of reticen ce in makin g statements which ca n not be proved by facts It would indeed be a brave national officer who would undertake to prov e the assertion that her fraternity was the "bes t" or "first ,. " for she is no such listing . It IS beneath the dlgmty of any fraternity woman to make such a statement concerning her own fraternity or to make derogatory remarks c oncerning the national or loc aJ rating of any other fraternity. Every organi · zation has a few skeletons in its closet, but their parading does littl e but harm all fraternities. A college PanheUenic should be a constructive body engased in a progressive program of real value to its members and the general colle$e community. There should be fostered a Sptrlt of confidence In the integrity and fair play of all its members. Keen though competition is, it should be carried on without questionabl'e methods and statements. It should not he necessary for any group to be forced into methods of whi ch it disapproves in order to preserve its ex istence. If all twenty three N.P.C. fraternities would earnestly apply themselves to the task this change could be brought about.

How does a fraternity "rate "? "first," "best," "Big Six, It and on and on? It rates by its members truly living the ideals of the fraternity, by their being cont ributing members in the better activities of the campus and their home communities, by remember. ing that there is a culture which is supposed to be acquired through a cotIege education and intellectual contacts that is more than a veneer. It rates by actually b,ing and not l ayin g it is . In fraternity as in all else-"What you are thunders so loud I can not hear what you say "-Alpha Gamma Delta Quart"ly .

No family in Pi Beta Phi has ever been more active and more loyal. In 18 93 Miss Jennie installed Vermont A chapter. Miss Jennie and Miss H<len, (later Grand President), built and maintained a house for the Pi Phis in Lawrence, Kansas , Ihe lirst fraternity house on the Lawrence campus, and it was so beloved a home for the chapter that to this day a round robin letter is carried among the girls who lived in that house. Miss Jennie had for years made her home with her sister H<len.

She was born in Cli n ton, Iowa in 1861 of pioneer parents, and attended high school there. In 1882 she received the first bachelor of science degree issued to a woman at the University of Iowa. She was active in many other organizations, including cI,l r N, American College Quill, aod K

Dr. Hebard has been well known for her literary contributions, both books and maguine articles. Her books indude, "The History and Government of Wyoming," "Pathbreakers from River to Ocean," and "Sacajawea." She was admitted to the Wyoming bar in 1891, after receiving her M.A. degree from the University of Iowa. In 1893 she was awarded a Ph.D. from Illinois Wesleyan.

In recognition of her work in Wyoming, she was to receive an honorary doctor of science degree from the University at the semi-centenn ial commencement activities next spring .
