EDITORIAL

NUMBER 1

DECREASED income from the ARROW Endowment for this year has forced retrenchment so the Information number of the ARROW comes this time in a less expensive form . The amount of information given is unchanged, and we bring you here the story of • year of real achievement in the fraternity. To carry on our work successfully in a world of changing conditions and lessened financial resources is no light task.

We cannot know too much about the working of Our fraternity organization, and our custom of publishing this number at the beginning of each college year gives to every member the opportunity to know what the fraternity nationally has been doing To read the reports contained herein, with their story of the work of your officers, should serve as a basis for a year of enthusiastic effort.

The beginning of a new college year rushing and with it new consideration of qualities we look for in our HaUle Chapman Collins, Iota Province Vice·Presi. dent, has so well expressed the qualities we desire that we quote her here:

"Education, sophistication, culture-.i n the general acceptance of the terms-are more or less acquired characteristics. But innate refinement and courage are fundamental qualities. Like virtue, one either has them or she has not. The kind of girl that Pi Beta Phi wants is the girl with innate refinement and courage, the girl who is so fine and wholesome that her good breeding is at all times and everywhere manifest, and a girl with courage-the cou rage of her convictions--the courage to say 'No,' when tempted to compromise with her highest ideals. If one has money, she can, to a certain extent, purchase education, sophistication, and even culture, but money can never buy refinement, courage, virtue; they are things of the spirit and can come only throu2h inheritance. If once the conviction prevails among high school girls and their parents that, in order to be a Pi Beta Phi , a girl must be above the average in moral integrity, in personal conduct, and in scholarship, then it will surely foUow, as night the day, that the fine type of girl will want to be a Pi Phi. It is human nature to covet that which is hard to get."

The committee on scholarship has gotten out a most interesting little pamphlet called " Study Aid " which so pleased Dean Mary Yost of Stanford University that she asked that several copies of it be sent to her It is the work of Margaret Willis Smith, National Chairman of the Scholarship Committee

Panhellenic Day at

Pacific International Exposition at San Diego was cele· brated August 31. Its pnnClpal feature was a beautifuUy-staged fashion show by Lettie Lee of It was glven under tbe auspices of the San Diego Panhellenic Association and p, Beta Ph, was represented among the hostesses by Lois Noble Simpson and the Editor of the ARROW.

* * *

It has come to the attention of Grand Council that several imposters have claimed mem· bersbip in the fraternity and have joined or attempted to join alumn", clubs. The Central Office has in its files an accurate list of OUf membership, and clubs everywhere are urged to consult the new directory, and in case of doubt, to write to the Central Office to verify claims to membership. It is especially urged that use be made of the method of testing membership prescribed by the fraternity.

* * *

At last tbe Editor has been to the Settlement School! It is one thing to hear and read of something, quite another actually to see it with one's own eyes, to talk with the people who are carrying on our work there, to meet at Old Timers' Day and also in more r.ersonal ways, the people of the co mmunity wbo have benefited by the activities of the schoo, and to hear their expressed appreciation.

Such an experience might have brought disillusionment and disappointment had conditions not been good- instead, it has brought only joy in our great school , and pride in what our years in Gatlinburg have meant. Now we know why it has so often been spoken of with enthusiasm. The school is an actively functioning force for good, giving to the community a type of education which the state cannot at present afford to offer, and besides furnishing through Arrowcraft steady employment in handicraft to more than a hundred women of the neighborhood. That is a bare statement of the facts.

It was a revelation to go there and see it with our own eyes. We have a finely-kept, finelymanaged school plant with the best teachers we can lind, chosen according to the highest standards; we have adequate, well-kept up living quarters for our teachers and our dormitory pupils; we have a well-stocked, well-managed farm as a background for the agricultural work, and also to su pply food for the school family; we have a well-equipped little hospital ; we have a most attractive shop and workroom for Arrowcraft and besides a delightful little shop in the Mountain View Hotel . All these things we have in a truly beautiful setting of hills and green trees .

But we have something more. There is a warmth of personal contact with the people who live there and whom we serve that glorifies the whole project and makes of it a thing alive.

If only you might all see it! If only you might go with Virginia Moore, our nurse, on her rounds, to visit the sick in the cab in homes, or to give typhoid inoculations and Schick tests to the people who flock with their children to the forlorn one-room school buildings in the remote districts, if only you might see the children and the babies-the infinitely pitiful dependen ce of these people 00 that little nurse. If you could hear them say ':We love Miss Moore," your heartstrings too would be wrung. you too would feel that nothlOg we can do there for these people who love us and trust us would be too much. We have truly made things bettec in our one small corner of the world . and we have not lived in vain if we keep up our work at the Settlement School.

True, the town of Gatlinburg has grown into the typical place of its size, with hot-dog stands, little shops where inferior handicraft attempts to compete with ours, even beauty shops r True, Gatlinburg is the headquacters for the Great Smoky National Park . True, there are many strangers there who do not need our help, but who get it because we are working in direct

cooperation with the public school system of the County. supplying buildings. equipment. and direction, while the county gave us last year only the salaries of the grade teachers as its con· tribution.

Yet among the people of the mountains there still exists a need for just the things we .re giving them. Read the reports of the past year of the school to see how those needs are being met in spite of decreased income. This work we can only continue if chapters and dubs will do their utmost with bene6ts, contributions, and magazine subscriptions.

It is unthinkable that we should take any backward steps at tAe Settlement School. With its success we have so fully justified our existence as a fraternity- we cannot fail now. In the Settlement School we havccause for pride and joy.

Go llnd see for yourselv a wonderful experience awaits you!

An interesting feature of Grand Council meeting was a tea given by the Pi Phis in Gatlinburg 10 honor of the council and the Settlement School committee at the lovely home of Vivian Blair Reagan, Oregon A, formerly a teacher at the school. During the afternoon, seven of the ten members required for an alumna! dub. signed an application for a charter, and they hope soon to have the remaining names . An alumn", dub in Gatlinburg! What possibilities it opens up for help for the school and for direct liaison between the school and the national organization. Surely no more fitting and inspiring place for a dub could be found. and surely the fraternity nationally will thrill with special pride when it is chartered.

" It is not where )"OU have been, the books you have learned, nor what you have setn and heard that it is the effect of tbose experiences on a man's mind and character."-CouA HARRIs.

George Starr Lasher, G P Delta Chi , tells of reading 011 the bulletin board of a leading church in Pittsburgh the announcement of sermons which included "What have we a right to expect from the church" and "Is religion done for, " He said: "When such questions aTe being asked of the perhaps o ldest and most firmly established social institution, the church, it is no t surprising to pick up a current issue of The Pill New s and find its leading editorial headed "Must fraternities go," urtainly no one could expect the college fraternity, libeled as it has been by the press, the movies. the magazine, and the novel, to escape in this general of revaluing and testing."

Pres. Angell of Yale said: "The fraternity has in the past years served as a necessary part of the Yale socia l life and I am confident that when they have made sufficient adj ustments to changed conditions which are the result of the advent of the college plan, adjustments will be found to be of such a nature as will satisfactorily take cace of the enduring social interests of the undergraduates."

A NNUAL REP O RT O F T H E GRAN D P RE SID EN T

THE CELEBRATION (If the fiftieth anniversary of TilE ARROW with the publication of its Goldtn Anniversary issue in May has brought to members of the fraternity an increased realization of the part which the magazine has played in the development of Pi Beta Phi and of the debt which they owe to the editors who have so wisely determined its editorial policies. It is gratifying ind«d that THE ARROW continun to be an ably C(ljted magazine the general make-up of which givC5 it a high place among fraternity publications and that its editors have not lost sight of the fact that its primary function is to save the fraternity which it represents and to "a means of communication" of Pi Beta Phi information and in· spiration.

The generous of Pennsylvania A to the Pi Beta Phi and Settlement School Endowment Funds, early this spring, make us conscious a,l!:ain of the fact that the life of 3 chapter is its de· votion to the fraternity and not its existence as an active group on a college campus. It is a pleasure indeed to express for the fraternity its appreciation of the active, loyal service which Pennsylvania A still gives to Pi Bera Phi through its members whose love for the fraternity lives so truly in their hearts.

In the results of the past year, when the in· spiration p;ained at convention has been so evident in increased vision, effort, and accomplishments for Pi .Beta Phi. the fraternity has again had most gratifying proof of the value of its conventions. In calling the Thirty·second Biennial Convention o( Pi Beta Phi to meet at the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago, June 21-27, 1936, the Grand has a keen realization not only of the invaluable contacts of such a convention but also of the in· creased prestige and strength for Pi Beta Phi which she believes must (ollow such thinking together for the good of the fraternity.

Althoup;h there have still betn problems to be faced as a result of the economic uncer· tainty, chapters have come through the year in remarkablv fine financial condition and with the number of initiates the p;reatest in the history of the fr.aternity. Certainly there can be no question but that a period of marked questioning of the value of fraternities has established Pi Beta Phi a.s a fraternity with a place of recognized and un· surpassed esteem. The honors which have come to individual chapters and to their members speak for themselves o( the place which these chapters hold on their campuses. There seems no less reason (or pride in the recoJ;:nized place which Pi Beta Phi holds for its honest and unfailing efforts to live the ideals which it professes.

Circumstances beyond the control of Grand Council have meant that in some instances active chapters have not received their usual visits from their province presidents during the past year, but

visits by national officers have been planned in such a way as to make the loss of the province officers' visits as (ar a.s possible from being se.ri. ously handicapping. The fraternity expresses its apprreiation for the service given by Louise Sale Cas· sady, Mary Hornaday, and Florence Allen Smith, and its regret that personal demands upon their time and strength have necessitated their resigna. tions as province presidents. With the installation of Ontario 0 and Nova Scotia A, the number of chapters in 1'\lpha Province became so large that it seemed unwise to ask any province president to supervise them all. During the past year, the situation wa.s met by placing Ontario B in Beta Province, but, at the recommendation of the out· going province president, Grand Council has. (or the coming year, divided the active chapters of Alpha Province into Alpha Province East and West and has appointed a president for each division. It seems probable that the coming convention should divide the territory now assigned to Alpha Provo ince into two provinces (or alumnle clubs as well as for active chapters. During the coming college year, Alpha Province East will have as its presi· dent Vida Peene, Ontario A . and Alpha Provi n ce West will have as its president Charlotte Ma rtin Pox, New York A Gamma and Mu Province Presidents the fraternity welcomes Adair Taylor Aiken, Louisiana A. and Ann McDonald D' Aule, California r, respectively.

The Balfour Cup has been won by Texas A and the Stool man Vase by Manitoba A, chapters which have represented the fraternity with true distinction on their campuses. Honorable mention has been awarded Ohio B and Michigan A. The n B 41 Fellowship for 1935·36 has been awarded to Katherine Finney, Arkansas A, who was ate<! from the University of Arkansas this June with hiSth honors. Applications for the 1936·37 fellowship of $500 shou l d reach the Grand Presi . dent by January I, 1936. The fellowship is avail· able for any Jtraduate member of the fraternity for study in America or abroad: seniors p:raduat· ing in June, 1936, are eligible. The Amy Burnham Onken awards, p:iven for the first time this year, tor individual quali6cations in scholarship, per· sonality, fraternity service. and student activity participation, were as follows:

National Award-Faith Arnold. Vermont A

Alpha Province-Faith Arnold, Vermont A

Beta Province--]osephine Balc:er. Ohio 0

Gamma Province-Elsie Lawrence, North Caro· lina A

Delta Province--Ann Osborn, n

Epsilon Province--Jocelyn Taylor, Missouri B

That tM fratn-nity holds and intecC!St of iu mmlbers to an exceptional degree IS evi<knt from the (act that durinA hard years financial support oC iu altruisttc projects bas con· tinuing of these proJ«t5 That the F.E.R.A. reduced tht numbtt of applicants for loans is SOlrttly to be questioned. it is not bard to unwhy students would prefer financial help which earned with It no Cor repayment. but it is for ,gnat Arati6cation that the Under,litraduate loan Fund Committee, last year, had funds for every requested loan. By reason DC the most cardul plannillJl; and economical and efficient administration. the Settlement School hu been able to contmue its work at Gatlinburg without eliminating any essc.ntial department Or lessen· ing the effectiveness of any. It is urged. that members of the fraternity study the financial reports of the Loan Fund and Settlement School com· and compare t.Mrn With of past years. so that they may have the fttlinA of keen pride which these reports SO fully justify. The Grand Treasurer's report again shows that the fraternity is financially sound and is in a position to do the things which should be done for inte:rna! strmgth· ening. During the past year, Grand Council has continued to carry out its policy of meding each problem as its own situation demanded instead of attempting to make one plan fit all situations. Chapters needinA special help have received in some cases financial aid. in othe:rs rushinA help, in others help with tuition for key actives who wouJd be unable to return, and so on, with results which seem to prove the wisdom of a Be:xible policy.

Under the direction of the Committee and Eunice Weaver, Illinois Z , Director. the Settle:ment School had an ocellent year. Leading Gatlinburg residents have expressed the belid that it has never had a better one. The school had the largest I!fl. rollment in iu history. something more than 3'0 i.n the ten grades. The county paid the salari.es of all the grade school teachers and of the prin· cipal. while the fraternity paid of the Agriculture and Home Economics teachers. There is a stronA desire o n the part of the local people for the addition of a third hiAh school year, and eventually for a full four year high school and u is possible that the county will provide the additional teacher to make this added year available for 193'·36. The dormitories, which were reopened last year. so fully proved their value to the students that applicatio ns for the cominR; year Car outnumber the available opt'nings. While the committee has no funds at to provide the recreational dirmor for which there is a truly Areat n<:ttl , every effo rt is being made to secure s uch a director through the Federal Work Relief. Until it is possible to brinA a trained recreational worker to Gatlinburg, however. the school is meeting the social needs remarkably well through its sports programs for the school, its planned school p:uties. and the Parent-Teachers' Association and the Weavers' Guild programs Arrow Craft has had its most successful year unde:r the dirmion

of Emma Pattengtll. Io wa r. and Ethel Snow , 'owa T. For the coming year, weaving will again be under the dm!ction of WlOogene Redding, who will be rancmbered by many for ha previous years with Arrow Craft. he- IS returning to the school aftet a year and a half III orris with the T. V A Aaow Craft has affiliated with the Southern High· landers. Ioc , an a5S0Ciallon of handicraft workers closely associated with the government and already conducting a shop at orris Dam. It is hoped that this association may have exclusive rights for the sale of souvenirs in tbe Smoky Mountain Park. The ttleme:nt School Committee has tbis year lost a most vaJuable member in the endinA of the term of office of Mary Cooper Frosr, Colorado A, under whose editorship "News From Uttle Pigeon " has made Gatlinburg and iu people very nellr and their nttds very dear. In its det"p appreciation for her fine service, the fraternit)· also expresses its pleasure in to the commmec- her successor, Lil. lian Bedc H olton, Maryland A.

While few active c:fforu have bttn made during the past year to solicit gifts to the Pi 8eu Phi Endowment Fund, the committee in of the fund found contributions gratifying and hopes thiS year to make a campaign which will s« the $50,000 endowment at least nearing com. pletion by convention. less than a dollar fr om each Pi Beta Phi would more than complete the endowment and wouJd insure the continuance of {he fraternity on a hiAh plane of dficiency re. A3rdless of changing conditions or times of ec0nomic stress.

As Pi Beta Phi's de.legate to National Pan hellenic Congress, the Grand President has carried on the required correspondence of the year and wiJl as delegate at the meeting of the Con. which is to be held at Biloxi, Mi.ssissippi, in December.

During the year just ended. the Grand President Installed the two chapters chartered by convention. Ontari o B at the University of Western Onta.rid and Nova Scotia A at Dalhousie University, and she has every confidence in the ability of these two new chapters to represent with distinction the of which they are now a part. She has Maryland A, D.C. A, Virginia A, Virga0l3 r, North Carolina A, North Carolina 8 South Carolina A, Iowa A. Iowa B, Iowa r. and Iowa Z She had the very great pleasure of being the personal Auest o f Ohio B for a week-end in Janua.ry ; of Illin ois E for the week-end of the Eta Province Conference in April ; and of :Missouri B and St. Louis Alumn&! Club for Founders' Day At the lime of the Florida State Convention held at Orlando, Fl orida, she had the very real privilege o f representing the Grand Council and of being the guest of the Florida chapters and alumclubs. Alumnr clubs situated near active chapters were visited at the time of chapter visits, and she expresses her very great appreciation to Pi Beta Phis everywhere whose hospitality has meant so great a pleasure to her.

As an officer of the fraternity, the Grand President that the year just ended has been one of progress, and as an individual, she has found It one of treasured contacts whose memories will lonA be cherished.

ANY BURNHAW ONKEN

REPORT OF GRAND VICE-PRESIDENT

As THE fraternity year draws to a dose, the offierrs of the AJumn.e Department voice appreciation for the continued loyalty and s upport of its members.

Though ¥"owth cannot be measured by numbers, on this basis the fraternity may well be pleased with the of the year Eight new dubs have bttn chartered this year : Westchester County, New York ; Charleston, West Virginia; London, Ontario, Canada; Flint, Michigan ; Terre Haute,Indiana; Corpus Christi, Texas; Fort Worth, Texu; San Antonio, Texas. Several other communities with ten DC more Pi Phis are working on the preliminaries but have not become chartered groups as yet. One dub, Clarksburg. West Virginia, ct'Ued to (unction and four other clubs were temporarily inactin This is a material reduction over last year's figures.

Convention Jast year votrd that all clubs desiring a visit from a national officer in the interim of Conventions might receive one. In consequence, the Grand Vice- President contacted twenty -eight of the sixty-four clubs visited It is a fine experience to see alumnae clubs in action- various methods, but all furthering the work of the fraternity

As well as the above, official visits were made to the seven active chapters of Lambda Province, Ontario B, Oklahoma A and B The apparent thing among these college chapters was the growth in national viewpoint , the result of Convention year when delegates and visitors bring constructive help to their chapters Each chapter seems most anxious for further ways to make its group outstanding in Pi Beta Phi.

Followin,. tke usual custom of the office, the Grand Vice-President sent two letters to all clubs during the year. The first , in October, offered suggestions and encouragement for the year's activities ; the second, one of greetings for Founders' Day.

More Founders' Day celebrations were held this than ever before In communities where no active club exists. these annual affairs serve a real purpose, that of fostering fraternity spirit. Out of many of these informal get-togethers have grown some of our present energetic clubs. Space does not permit a complete list but a few of the larger gath· erings may be mentioned here: the New York City and viciOity luncheon; the Washington, D.C., and Gamma Province luncheon; the Indiana State lunchron in Indianapolis, which still holds the record attendance of almost four hundred; the Michigan State luncheon at Detroit; the Ontario Province gathering at Hamilton ; the St Louis banquet ; the Kansas City Cookie Shinco ; the two -day Eta Province conference held with Illinois E; the union of Des Moines and Arne! alumnz with the Iowa r chapter to honor Miss Onken: the Denver. Boulder and Colorado chapters uniting; the Stattle banquet with Mrs Soule, Founder, present ; the northern Californians at Palo Alto with two chapters and four clubs participating ; and in Los Angeles, six dubs and two chapters combincod to recognize the day and pay homage to the PoundC'1'5.

At this point two other larAe fraternity gatherings, in addition to the inspiring conference in

Evanston where Miss Onken was honor guest, may be mentioned. In May, actives and alumnae of Florida joined for a fine meeting with Miss Onken in attco.ndance In June, Kappa province gathered at Shreveport, Louisiana , for a two-day stSsion to which the Grand Vice-President was sent as official Grand Council represcontative. These state and province meetings have proved 50 worthwhile in bringing a doser understandinsr betwC'C'11 and actives and a dearer conception of fraternity activities, that it would be most beneficial for other provinces to sponsor them when possiblco. I ndicative of added intcorest in fraternity matters is the growth in contributors to Our national projects. Last year only one province, Lambda, had every chapter and club contributing to thco. SC'ttie. ment School, thr Endowmmt and the Loan Fund: this year, Delta, Epsilon, and Umbda provinces alJ hold perfect records, a fine achievement for clubs and chapten and for the province officers who worked so faithfully to establish this record. Theta province deserves Honorable Mention also because every dub of that province supported all three projects.

The total amount of contributions to our pri· mary activity, the Settltment School , have fallen be:low last ycoar's mark but these totals do not me:asure the genuine spirit of cooperation of our With the exception of our four temporarily inactive clubs and those too recently chartered to function this year, ve.ry few clubs gave nothing toward the maintenance of School The largest per capita donations do not nrcessarily come from the largest dubs. MembC'rs of the smaller groups worle just as energetically and the results may manifest an even greater percrntage interest than the metropolitan club fraternity is deeply grateful for the support of every one and wishes that every club and chaptcor might share the joy of earning something for the Settlement School. The continued striving together for a common cause means further welding of our membership. To visit Gatlinburg is to have extreme pride in what has bttn accomplished; to investigate conditions there is to come away with covcon greater resolve to cooperate with the Settlement School Committee in bettering condi· tions still further in and around Gatlinburg. Much remains to be done when can ntend their support to make it possible.

Arrowcraft products of the School have come in for more widesprcoad attention this year. Many dubs which had not handled these goods have had teas and displays and the volume of business hlilS in· creased . That the Atrowcraft sales make living p0ssible for many of those families of Tennessee is reason enough to promote them ; but the beauty of workmanship, design , and color in· crea5e5 their market, once the articles are seen.

The attention of C'Very club is called to the report of the Maguine Agency, Commission! on magazine subscriptions furnish a splendid source of income and too few clubs are availing themselves of this medium. Every club can have as fine a record as do the" ten clubs standing foremost in magazine saJes; were this donco , the School would inderd benefit.

Alumnz have given grnerously to the Loan Fund

and the Endowment. The active girls have availed thmtsc:lvn 01 this Loan Fund. The fratem.ity will further strengthen as the Funds are ... Ioased.

The Province Vice·Presidmts have kept in closer touch with tilt clubs o f their respective provinces and the reports show how much more general has h«n alumDr participation in consequence. 1be department is ,!ittatdul to the officers and of the clubs [or their cooperation in forwarding promptly questionnaires and officers' lists From the 168 clubs have come 146 questionnaires and 137 officers' lists, a better response than other years. Theta Province receives Honorable Mention foc being 100 per cent in both. At the close of the year, it may seem burdensome to care for these details questionnaires are important in giving every dub due for its achievements; failure to send officers' Jilb means that a club is not listed, correctly. in the Alumnz Directory which appears in the September Anow.

The usual contacts have bttn maintainw by the Grand Vice.Presidmt with Province Vice·Presi· dents, through general monthly letters ilfld J)ttsonal when expedient. In addition. ptr· sonal conferences were po sible with her Assistan! and 6ve of the Province Vice· Presidents in the course of chapter and club visits . These were of invaluable assistance as they brought this office much closer to particular province needs The Grand V ice·PrC$ideot here extends to her capable Assist· ant and to the Province Vice-Presidents her deep

Tgratitude for their worthy cHarts w ithi n their resp«tive fields and their ready rcspoose to her sug· gestions, always

• With the exception of Eta Province, the personnel of the twelve Province Vice·Presidents has remamed intact throughout tbe year. Tbe vacancy caused by the resignation of Ruth Sutton soon after Convention has hem ably filled by Dorothy Hunt Dengel of the Milwaukee club The close of the year brings two other resignations, that of Juanita O' Day from Lambda Province and Hilda Henry of Zeta Province These the«: officers have given much to the of the alumnz department and the fraternity has accepted their resignations regretfully .

Appreciation is here extended. to M iss Onlcen for her constant cooperation ; to Mrs Stoolman, Mrs Stark , and Mrs Alford for their assistance ; and to the many others who have expressed confidence and have lent their support to tM upbuilding of this department of the fraternity.

Suggestions on ways to improve the alum nz department have bttn solicited and are always most wtlcome Looking ahead to the Convention year of 1936, from the alumne angle, the Grand V icePresident earnestly hope$ that each dub will strive toward increasC'd membership; that every d ub will be able to contribute more generously to every fnternity project , and that the department may have a record atrendance of dub deltgatcs and viSitors at Convention.

ARROW EDITO R

THE YEAJl 1934-193' haJ been a most eventful and intere5ting onc for tbe MIlOW bringing with it the celebration of the fiftieth annivusary of the magazine In consequence. J have this ytar spent much time on the historicaJ w o rk, preparatory to the Golden Anniversary numbtr. It has been a privilege to meet and talk with the fust editor of the ARRow, Mary Miller Barnes, and the third editor, Isabella Hudson Cartwright. who were most gracious in giving their help. I have also been in correspondence with every living editor of the ARRow, and I want to thank most cordially for their intectSt and cooptration. Going bade over the story of these years has been a thriBing source of inspiration.

The first issue of the year was the Information ARRow- unusually large this year, due in part to the three year interim Conventio ns , which greatly increased the length of the reports of officers. It was far too expensive to print all of this matter in our usual form, and yet I had done much cutting whenever it was possible

The November issue was the rather monumental one of the Directory, for which we owe thanks to our efficient Central Office and especially to Mrs . Purdunn. Jt has bem one of the most popular issues we have ever had, and I strongly recommend that we carry out the plan of issuing this number every four years.

The February issue, the first open issue of the year, was devoted to news of Convention . Much delightful material was submitted for it, and much had to be rejected, many fine pictures not used, because the issue had to be kept to 96 pages , our standard size under the new page size.

The May issue was the Golden Annjversary one . The alumnae department had voted an appropriation of $no oo for this, and I used this to reprint the quaint original number of the ARRow. The type used is a modern one like that of the originaJ, but for the cover, display pages, headings, de., the photostatic process was used . The appropriation also covered the cost of the sixteen pages of additional material in the issue

1 have not been able to acknowledge all the delightful letters and messages that have come from all over the country about it-but 1 have truly ap-

Spreriated them, and have been most grateful for them. One girl wrote, "Seei ng the 6rst ARROW has made me a better Pi Phi '''-and that aJone has made me that it was worth while Considerable progress has been made on the hi story. I spent an interesting day with Agnes Wright Sprmg, $oing over the material in the archives and tallcing over the whole matter-and I am satisfied that we are to have a real history.

I am hoping that the work on the history may be completed in time to bring it out next year.

I have visited this year fifteen alumnz clubs, and live with informal visits to two more . Complete reports o n these have been made to the Grand President and the Grand Vice·President.

J have had the privilege of being the guest of honor at three splendid Founders' Day celebrations, in Palo Alto with the clubs aro und San Francisco bay, in Los Angeles with the combined dubs in that region, and with my o wn club in San Diego .

At all of these menti o n was made of our Golden Anniversary celebrations, and the Los Angeles dubs mos t graciously honored the ARROW, making its Half Century the theme of its toast list, and enter· taining the first, third , and present editors as special guests of honor.

An informal visit to the Washington Alumnae Club on May 28 will close the year. The contacts with ou r line members everywhere have been a joy, and an incentive to greatu efforts for the fraternity.

The ARROW of the May issue was 21,200 copies. We grow at the rate of about 1000 copies a year, owing to our new initiates! We are by far the largest in point of circulation of the women 's fraternity magazines, and only a few of the men 's are larger in circulation.

I feel ve7 deeply the and the responsibility 0 making the ARROW a worthy representative of Pi Beta Phi in the fraternity world It is a most interesting work- and in it I have had loyal support and cooperation from the staR and contributors and for them I have much praise and grateful appreciation.

1 am grateful to the fraternity for the opportunity and the joy that the ARROW work has been to me in this wo nderful year

ADELE TAYLOR ALFORD

A SSIST ANT TO GRAND P RE SIDENT

INCB THE possibilities of rendering real assistance to a most efficient officer are very slight, the Assistant to the Grand President has as her definite duty the supervision of the Pledge Super· visors and the Alumnr Advisory Committees . The associations through contacts and correspondence with these two groups have been most delightful and stimulating.

At the beginning of each semester a letter bas hem sent to the Pledge Supervisor of each chapter, with instructions and suggestions for her work Many of these girls have not only replied with the proper information but have contributed new ideas and splendid suggestions. Others have failed to cooperate. On the whole the Pledge Supervisor is

one of the strongest officers in aU our chapters. The results of her work for the Fraternity are definitely s hown in a short time in her chapter. Many of our strongest girls are holding this position. Sixty-one o f our seventy-nine chapters had most tfficient Supervisors this past year

As the college year progresso the Advisory Committees assume more and more responsibility. The replies to the Idter sent in Ihe FaJl are not so helpful or inform ative as th ose sent by the in response to the letter issued to them at the beginning of s«ond semester. The Committees' AnnuaJ Report is most helpful and almost without exception is sent on time and with helpful suggestions. These committee members, giv.

ins so gmerously of their time and mergy. are JuseJy (or much of the 5UCCtS. of our chapters.

This office has had corrcspoodtnce with the chapter prtSidmtJ to compue and establish a standard for the letters smt by the chapter sponsor to the parents of the pledges. The chapters have not perfected this letter and next year must put mote and dron into writing it.

It was a distinctive privilege for the Assistant to the Grand President to attend the Greek: Conclave held at Ohio Wesleyan on December 7. 8, and 9. 1934. There were from seventee n national women's Fraternities and as many (rom the men's.

During the r.car it has • real pleasure to visjt officially e evcn chapters which included, On· tario A, Nrw Yorlc A, r , and 4. Vermont A and B , Nova Scotia A. Maine A, Massachusetts A , JlJinois E and Wiscon.si n A. The inspiration gained from chapter visits carries with it a very strong realization oC the joy of the Fraternity. It has also been the privilegt oC the Assistant to the Grand President to visit officially the following aJwnnl'! dubs, Toronto, BuffaJo, Boston, Hartford, Westchester County, New York, New Yodr City, and the Long Island group of the New Y ork Club. She also was happy to mret with the alumnae of Ithaca for luncheon, and with those at Middlebury, Vermont.

Founders' Day was celrbrated as the guest of the Ikiroit AJumn2 Club at the Michigan State meeting at Drtroit The day before and the one following this were spmt with Illinois E as hostess at the Eta Province Conferroce. These were most delightful occasions.

The Assistant to the Grand Presidrnt has rode<! her work by making a survry o f the pledging and initiation statistics for the closing college rear. this surve)" indicating that the much talked-o depression has had no bad effects upon pj Beta Phi membnship. The opposite eHert, continued growing numbers, is the result.

ASSISTANT TO THE G R AN D VICE-PRESIDENT

A NOTHER YEAR hal slipped by and as the time .l"'1.. comes to make annual reports I rulize more krealy the privileges that have been mine in $trving the fraternity in an officia l capacity. Sina submitting my last report 1 have had the pleasure of knowing personally the officers that I had not previously met and the opportunity of making new friendships--an opportuntty made possible by attendance at any Pi Beta Phi Convention.

My first duty for the current year, after submitting for publication in the Auow the minutes of the Alumnz of the Thirty-Pirst Biennial Convention, was the comrilation and distribution to all alumnr clubs a the Highlights, both legislative a nd social, of the above mentioned Convention. It is one of the duties of this office to work

with all newly chartered clubs . Letters offering assistance and suggestions were written to all clubS chartered. since June 1933, and in many cases individual help wu given whrn requested. Letters of welcome were written to each club as it was chartered.

The Province Vice·Presidents and this work together in stimulating interest in forming neW' dubs. Plans were laid in each province to that end, and as It result of combined efforts, in which our Grand Vice-Presidrot, Ruth Barrett Smith has played no small part , we have eight new clubs chartered. sina June 1934. There are other groups that are working for their charters and it is expected that the next year will see Our steadily increasin8 number o( alumn2 clubs further augumented.

With establishment of Army and Navy Auxiliary as voted by last convention, a duty has been added to the work of this office. I have been in correspondence with the Chairman and policies h«n formulated for the eventual (unc-

Early in April letters were written to eighty where there acc sufficient P i Phis to form an alumn:r club urging them to plan a Founders' Day celebration and at that time make plans (or application for an alumnz club charter. I n this connection, may I pause to thank Mrs . Alford and a150 Mrs. Purdunn of Ce:ntral Office for our new directory and the indusion therein of a geograr.hical section, and thank Grand Council as a who e for making it available to so large a per cent of our membership by giving it to us as onc of the regu l ar issues of the A RROW? It has been invaluable! M ay 1 also urge any Pi Phi living where there is no duh who is desirous of h avi ng dub co n tacts a nd is wi ll ing to help organiu a club to w rite me? My Founders' Day leuers are, for most part, addressed. to members whose names selected at random from the lists and do not always bring desired results.

It was my to part in thf Round discussions and program of Indiana Founders' Day at which Ruth Barrett Smith was honor guest.

All constitutional duties devolving upon this been performed. • I n conclusion I wish to thank all with whom 1 had of working for their friendship and cooperation, and to my ever increasing appreciation for Pi Beta Phi.

On January 1 California 11 showed • gain of $700 8', There were in January, March , and April bringing the loss to $-410 27 on May 1.

Delinquency has bct-n a very oubtandiog problem this rear. I do believe the chapters are en· deavoring to clear up all old and new accounts by the time school doses in June. In my letter of May J 0 to chapter treasurers definite instructions were given as pte rulings passed at Convention. If instructions are followed ' every account should be settled in some way (by note, probation. cash) on the May,June Many chapters show dt linqucnts 00 the chart which are already paid and which were paid at the time the monthly report was made out. These will be cleared on the June report. Cahfornia A showed a large list of previously due and overpayments on their Januuy report. The writer was in California and rwiring the complicated situation with this chapter assisted their treasurer in making their February, March, April and part of their May reports A careful analysis was made of old accounts showing over· payments for many months. In most cases these were not correct. In September, certain balances still-owing had evidently not brought for· ward. Then the members paid the old bills and the money was received in September. This showed an overpayment which was Adiustments made on all overpayments and amounts still

STILL

owing. On February 1 their reports showed still owing as $887.64 and ooJy May 1. I believe this chapter will opmlte much more efficiently next year under the guidance of their new financial adviser, Mrs.' Palmer.

I shall be glad to submit an additional report regarding delinquents as soon as the May·June Ie· ports are all in.

Arizona A and California had audits made as prr suggestions Audits b.tve bttn recommended to several chapters where there has been a difference brtween Mi and Bank Reconcilement. This has created a very difficult probltm for this office. New York Alpha AlumnI.' AS5OCiation has charge of board and room yet the chapter assesses in the house and commissary departments. On April I , New Yor-Ie A showed ca5h balance for month $}0:s4.42 yet their actual ban1c balance was only $731.94. I have:' no way of knowing when or if they make an error. An error could be made every month and not be noticed as long as these two do not agree. On April 1 Mr. Busey wrote to the chap· rer malcing recommendations but no change has bttn made in their reports to dare. WlsconsIO A has a similar situation . 00 their May report they show Mi $2824.10 and only $929.27 in the bank. I have been assured by Mrs Webster of the very fine standing o( this chapter. I do hope some plan can be worked out in the fall so that these chapters will have balanced reports.

Cash gain or loss and Mi agreeing with Banle R«oncilement has caused very much trouble to this office.

PI BETA PHI MAGAZINE AGENCY

AMAZED by a most successful year in the magazine business, and absolutely thriHed by the great success we have had, the Director of the Magazine Agency is very happy to give the report of the magazine business for the year 1934·35.

The amount of profit we have realized this year is $2000.00. This money bas been sent at various times to Miss McClcverty. the treasurer o( the Settlement School, who has sent this sum to our school. All proceeds from the Magazine Agency go toward the support and maintenance of our school in Gatlinburg.

Things have happened this year in the art of selling magazines. Almost over night , our girls over the country have flashed upon the a new t«hnique in selling magazines. More people are contacted and the Pi Phi Magazine Agency is reaching out past our own circle, our home and friends, to outsiders, professional and business men and women, who are becoming our most satisfied subscribers. Many of our smaHer clubs have shown a d«ided ina-ease in busines.s this year. Supremely inter-esting to the Director is the fact that many individual Pi Phis that are not affiliated with any club send in their magazine orders, which goes to prove every Pi Phi is really b«oming magazine conscious.

Whether vou have sent in many orders or few, we wish to assure you of our intense desire to cowith you

Our subscription business is growing every year, and in the few years we have been in existence we are very proud of the great success which we have had. Thousands of people are among our satisfied customers.

Some chapters and clubs have produced a great amount of business and are to be congratulated on their wonderful work for this year. The chapters and clubs not making such a good showing, need not be discouraged, but with an intensive campaign and new social groups to be contacted, their busi. ness is bound to grow.

"The enthusiasm of our subscribers will pave the way to many new orders and aid us in build· ing up a list of excellent prospects"- so one agent informed. me.

Gift suggestions have a great appeal to our busy friends of today.

A magazine subscription is now recognized as the most tasteful and satisfactory gift. It's not looked. at-laid aside-forgotten. It is actuall

J 2 gifts in the case of a monthly. an '2 ,epa rate gifts in the case of a weekly.

Our prices are extremely low, as we have advantage of all wonderful dub offers, and the Pi Phi Agency is authorized to accept subscriptions for every magazine and newspaper published in any language on the face o( the earth.

One publisher pointed out to the Director of the Agency, a few of our good prospects.

1. Ever1 Home

Magazines will interest every of the family.

2. Every Club

Doctor' s and dentist' s office, etc.

Magazines are ideal for a mo ment's or an hour ' s relaxation

3. Ever, Sch ool

Magazines are a liberal education for all students of history, geography, natural history, CUrrent events, etc Magazines $ive reality to the most solemn text bOoks.

4. EtJer, Hospilal, Clinic, and Library

Magazines are eagerly read by all wh o visit the periodical rooms.

5. EII"1 Hairdr ns er and Gill Shop

Ready-ta- wear shops and many others are al1 among the list of our important customers.

We are allowed to place bids on large group orders for clinics, libraries, schools, etc , if the co mplete list is sent to the Agency several weeks the order is desired. We make only a small profit on bids but are glad to handle the business [or we are apt to receive other subscriptions from these custo mers

Many organizations are now conducting a Magazine Agency similar to ours. We were first in the field of thjs great adventure, and do not let us fall d o wn or let our sales decrease one iota. The competition is becoming greater every year and for that rcason, every Pi Phi must get behind this great movement of ours, and should feel the need of the individual support, to make this year our greatest yet. We have been told by the Sales Manager of the largest magazine house in the wocld that we haven't even scratched the surface! One pers on can' t d o il al one- neither can one gr oup-il mus l be Ihe reslJll of Ih e co ncerJ ed, sincere ell orls o j ever1 member!

The Director of the Agency takes this opportunity to extend a word of thanks and sincere appreciation to our Grand President, Miss Onken. the Grand Officers and every member of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for their marvelous cooperation in promoting the interests of the Magazine Agency.

The following is the report and financial statement f o r the year 1934-35.

CEN TRAL OFFICE

THE DIJl£CTOIlY of the w as th e most Important project of tbe Ccntnll Office for 193 1·3) TM actual typing of this work was begun August I'. 1934. The Office was fortunate in able to emptor foe this extra 00.: two local stenographers. It took about twenty. three days of steady typing with three typists at worlc to compldll! 01U section of the Directory. Copy gallq-. and page proof were all read for errors The last of the page proof was corrected and sent to the printer on De}, 1934 and the Olfectories were mailed the last of The cross-reference or married section cards of the Central Office files all had to be numbered from the chapter section in order that the cards would serve the of a cross- reference Two extra girls were at work on this for thee : months. Had thi not been necessary, the work on the Directory would have progressed more raridly than it did. Twenty.five thousand copies 0 the Directories were printed. Twenty thousand were sent to the reRular subs:cribers to the ARROW. The remaining ',000 will be sent to the initiates for the next four years or until a new Directory is issued.

All chapters were to correct their Rec· ord of Membuship Books, Card Files, and Boolc of Initiates' Signatures and send in a signed affi· davit that their records were in accordance with the Directory. The Director believes that this is one of the direct, worthy results accomplished by the Directory. There has beta less difficulty this year than ever before with the correct numbering of the initiation certificates.

The non·subscribers:· drive was put into force to enab le members i nitia ted before 1908 who were not receiving the ARROW to subscribe to the magazine at the reduct<! price of $7.'0 for a life subscription. Nineteen of the non-subscribers have taken advan. tage of this offer to date and the Director hopes for many more.

The Central Office handled the average amount of l"Qutine work and mimeographing this year for instructions to chapters , alumna:: dubs, and officers. The mimcoRraphins was Rreatly facilitated by a new A. B. Dick mimeographing machine.

Subscribers will notice that their ARROWS no longer have the guarantee of return postage on the wrappers except for the fn(ormation and Directory issues: The expense of paying the return postage on

SETTLEMENT SCHOOL COMMITTEE

TilE TWENTY-SECOND year in the life of the Settlement School has closed, and in some respects it has been an outstanding year. Nothing has been sptctacular but has been continued rrogress. In comparing our School with those: 0 like character, the Committee thinks the Fraternity shou ld be proud to have been able to maintain such an institution with very little retrenchment.

This ytar the dormitories were opened, and about twenty boys and girls took advantage of the opportunity for bdter schoolin,(t. The enrollmem in the School was the largest in its history.

Mr. Wm. King returned to be Principal of the School, and with an able corps of teachers had a most successful year. Mr. King and Jean Handley were the high school teachers of the regular subjects; Mr. Don Smith taught agriculture and Miss Mary Elizabeth Spencer had charge of home economics. Mr. Smith has been a member of our faculty for a number of years and we regret his resignation which becomes effective July 1. Mr. Smith is leaving to assume management of hjs father's farm. All classes for the seventh through the tenth grades were held in the h.igh school building. The grammar school was over-crowded and next lear at least one grade wiH have to be transferre to another building. The grammar grades were taught by Eleanor Brabson, Miriam Swann, Mattie Huff Lawson, Dorothy Douthat, and Stella Huff. All of these teachers were most conscientious in work in the schoolroom as well as in the community. We are losing Mattie Huff, Jowa r, and Dorothy Douthat, Missouri r, .s have married young men in Government service. Both young couples are living in attractive cottages recently built in Gatlinburg.

Mrs. Weaver, 1lIinois Z, has been the D irector during the year, and she has endeared herself to community and the staff. Virginia Moore, our nurse, has continued. her constructive health for a radius of ten miles, and the regular clinics have bun conducted throughout the year. H er repon gives full details of her effort spent in bdtering Jiving conditions. She has been delighted to have the boxes which bave been sent to the hospital with needed supplies. such as bandages. etc. Lucy Field, Texas A, has com-

pleted her second year as bookkeeper and her work has been very efficiently executed. Mrs McDonald , housemother for the dormitories has been most faithful, and her supervision of the housekeeping department the usual high mark of past years. The entire Staff has served the School in a very capable manner, and to them the Committee extends its sincerest words of praise and gratitude.

Arr o w Craft has shown a splendid year of progress lts managers have been Mrs. Emma and Mrs Ethel Snow, both of Iowa 1'. Due to their fine efforts the Shop has closed its busiest year. During the faJl the peak of shipping was reached; the months of November and December equalled total of previous years up to '33. Mrs. Mitchell was Weaving Supervisor; the Shop assistant was our faithful Veatress Panon; and lura Ownby has assisted in the Weaving Room. We have added Mrs. Duffield to our Staff, continuing her duties as manager of the Shop in the Mountain View Hotel. She weaves the handsome afghans which are popular se1Jers in many dubs. Her ar· tides in the MROW are very interesting, as she recounts the many important visitors whose names are in ber Scrapbook.

Community activities are continuing under school guidance. Mr. lGng has had a splendid basketball team which brought visitors for the games. The P.T.A. and Weavers' Guild are thriving and both groups have had many interesting meetings. The Staff assisted in community gatherings, in the Church and its activities , the Old Timers ' Oay, and in every way possible has tried to promote a community spirit and civic responsibility. We are hop" in$ in the coming year to provide a recreational DHector, as such a worker is greatly needed.

The Committee is delighted tbat the clubs and chapters have been enthusiastic in their support of the school. We have outlined no brilliant plans for future, but we are happy in that the school has not lost step' in its forward progress. With an indebtedness sbJl upon us, we deemed it best to it as quiddy as pOSSible. Should the state of Tennessee: pass impending educational legislation regarding the two year high school. some important changes may be forced upon us.

This has bem a yeu (or many visitors to the school. The Great Smokics are attr:lctiog many toueists, and we are ddighted that SO many .vail them· sfivcs of the opportunity to see our planL There is a need foe a guide, but tllt mmlbe:rs of the Staff add this task of guidance to their already full day's work.

The Chairman cannot de>se this crport without ex-pcrssing her d«pest appm:iatioo to Grand Coun-

ell to particular for their sympathetic guidance and constant intercst in the work. To the memM-rS of the Committee she extends her appreciation of the cooperation given during the year. To the Staff she with pride tbeir efforu and l1lterest in their work. With heartfelt gratitude she thanks the fraternity one .nd all for the untiring intecrst loyalty, and financial support givm to OUR SCHOOL FaANItJE C. HJLL

Commllnily

Gatlinburg is now the largest town in Sevier County, population fifteen hundred. With an increase in the number of tourists and visitors, quite a bit of friendly civaJry is being started between Gatlinburg and Sevierville, the County seat. A help to the community is the construction, by the Gov. ernment, of the road in the Smoky Mountain Park towards Newfound Gap, employing local labor All other construction in the Park development carried on by the Bureau of Public Roads , the Na. tional P ark: Service, and the c.ee. camps is a financial heIr to the people in this section.

As oae 0 the T.E.R.A. measures, an adult in reading was conducted by Mrs. Sha.rp in one of ou.. school rooms in the evenings. This was a wonderful opportunity for those middle·aged mountaineers who had never learned to read.

Wylie Oakley, "The Roaming Man of the M ou ntains," was a most mthusiastic pupil, and later offered his home for the elm.

At the little post office almost at our front gate, was the first-day sale on October 10th, of the new Smoky Mountain National Park stamp. This brought a big crowd and ove.. sixty thousand stamps were sold.

The usual County Fair was not held this year, for after inquiring among the neighbors and ow local committee. it wa5 thought that not mough money could be raised to .6n1na it properly. Old Timer's Day was celebrated June 22.

The movies have been held in the school all year and have providN well conducted entertainment.

On August 13, the school opened with 282 pupils present. Thi.s number grew rapidly in the next two months, and we had difficulty in finding desks for the pupils. In some of the rooms, the rows o( seats extended almost to the teacher's table. Everett Trentham brought two bus loads o( children every morning, one from Cherokee at seven o'clock and one from Forks o( the River at seve n thirty; then took them back in the afternoon. This was for by the County with the exception of the nlOth month, as were the grade salaries.

All were glad to have Mr King back not only for his work as principal and teacher, but because o( the interest in athletics which we knew would be forthcoming.

Vivian Blair Reagan, a former teacher living near the schodl, offered her services as a substitute in teaching and other things during the year, and was a great help.

There were a number of very popular and beneficial extra-curricular activities during the schoo l year. An operetta, Painl.] and Pauhll, under the direction of. Miss Handley and Miss D outhat, was presented In October. The basketbaJl season while not successful in the number of games won; was exceUent from the standpoint of community and the high type of sportsmanship exhIbited by both players and spectators. The Christmas program was presented by the first six grades on December 20 and 21. This program attracts probably the largest crowds of the year. The seniors. under the direction of Miss Handley, presented a play, H obgoblin H ONU, on March 18th and gave a nne performance. The moving picture s hows were discontinued for a few weeks during the basketball season, but there have bttn two shows a week siner April 1st.

In addition to the school basketball team, we had a very successful community team This type of activity in the community seems distindly worthwhile. The games and other community ac· tivities were so well attended, that it was necessary to erect two tOWS of temporary bleachers in the gym; and. to place guard posts along the of the driveway in order to keep the increasing num· ber of cars from injuring the grass ill front of the high school building.

The dilapidated toilets for the grammar school building were removed and replaced by new and sanitary ones by T.E.R.A. labor under the supervision of the County Health Department.

The Parent Teacher's Association worked hard to keep their basement lunch room furnish· ing a hot drink or dish for the noon lunch, and deserve much credit. They held three rummage sales and one benefit bridge party, raising over $210.00.

A stage setting was furnished the auditorium th ougb advertising on a drop curtain by merchants in the vicinity_

School closed with the Commencement program May indo The graduating address was delivered by Dr Ralph Waldo Lloyd, President of Maryville College. Seven eighth ACade and eleven tenth grade pupils received diplomas.

Mr. King and I visited Berea during the year, and attended the Mountain Worker's Conference in KnoxviUe in April.

Dormilo,i,s

The dormitories were Ope-ON, and by October wert" with ten boys and teo guls. TM gi.rls Jivw in their dormJtory undtt the Sllprrvision of Mn. McDonald. and the boys were housed in tuart Cottage with Mr. King. :McDoDald. woo had managed the donnitories year be-fore last, plannrd the woLk for the girls and managrd them very efficimtly. he also provided enterta.mmenl and supervised their study. She has had charge of all the houses as well as planniog the meab and everyone is aJways pleased with the delicious food which she serve:s. She was assisted by two cooks.

The boys under the capable managmlmt of Arlie Watson and Ambers Ogle, kept up the work on the farm, in the school and around all the buildings.

The students were able to pay very little cash, but were all willing to work as many hours as possible. and in some instances brought in produce that wa needed. They gained a wealth of knowledge and experience as well as an average of twelve pounds. We feel that this has been a sue· cessful year In the operation of the dormitories.

Home uo"omirs

M iss Mary Elizabeth Spencer. a graduate of the University of Tennessee, has been our new Home Economics teacher this year. She W2iS very enthusi. astic over her school work and the outside activities, and planned costumes and decorations for all entertaInments.

Due to the large enrollment of freshman girls and the lack of equipment for a group of this size, two for freshmen and one for sophomores were held during the first semester. After the first of the year, the freshman classes were combined, although there was insufficient equipment to meet the state for the resultingly large class. Outside classes were formed during the second semester.

Great progress was made in the sewing classes, especiaJJy noticeable in those who had never uso:l a machine or made anything before. There was a great deal of intertst in cooking, since the girls couJd easily have practical experience in their work. The units 00 Home Courtesies and Personal Grooming were of especial interest as was the coune in Home Nursing taught by Miss Moore.

On April 13th the girls attended 0rn House in the Home Economics Department a the Uni. versity of TennesKC. AJI were enthusiastic over the exhibits there.

A Home Economics Club was organized this year. caIJo:I the H.E .C. Meefin,!ts were held every two weeks and the girls sold candy, clearing enough money to buy club pins and have a wiener roast at the close of school.

Many women of the community attended the adult classes every Thursday. Clothing, cooking. and yard improvement were taught reguJarly. and the County Demonstration Agent met with them once a month for courses in gardening and canning.

Ag,irllllllre

Notwithstanding the increased price of gram, the extra number of young cows being raised 10 replace the old ones , and some badly needed im· pCO\itments, the farm is about breaking even for 193'. Many things have been done that were more or less minimizoi last year due to the decreased labor. TIle Bock of cbickens l.S luga and aJl the fruit trttS have been sprayed and pruned. Roads, dnves, and fences have been kept in a better state of repair. and the whole place has a well kept appearance. There has been a demand for pigs from the three registered Poland China sows kept on the place. About twenty pigs were sold to local people who raise only enough corn to "fatten their meat, " which usually means one hog. Some wanted to buy as many as two or three, but only one pig was sold to a faqlily, because the demand was so much greater than the supply.

The farm is well managed under the direction of Don Smith who bas been with us six years. His assistants, Ambers Ogle and Arlie Watson, are distinct asSCt:s to the place. Mr. Smith has made the flIm self.supporting, and a wonderful example to the communIty. The herd of cows and the fine condition in wbich they are kept receive the admiration of all who see them. The fast rotating feed crops which he plans, supply a big part of the huge amount needed to feed the cows. haIRS. hogs. shttp, and chickens. His farming methods and practices have proved very successful here and bave received favorable comments by many authorities. His advice is continually sought by people in the community, and he is considered an authority on farming problems in thi .. section of the country by his department and State Extension workers.

Considerable interC$t was shown in the new part time class for boys out of school. Its major advantage was giving these boys some activilY which they could feel was their own The school farm furnished, as usual, many opportunities for practical application of farm jobs learned in the classroom. Prizes were won for outstanding work done in the farm shop and exhibited at the Ten · nessee Valley Agricultu.ral and Indu.strial Pair.

Due to the increased population in Gatlinburg and consequently larger school enrollments. our nurse, Virginia Moore, ha.s been busier than ever before. She has had charge of physical examinations and clinics in ten schools, and bas dODe exception. ally good work.

The Pi Beta Phi School with 14, Blue Ribbons woo first place in the large school section in the contest and parade in Sevierville in March. For this honor, much remedial work was done. 127 children visited the dentist, and 3 had their tonsils removed. In cases of necessity. this work was financed by the Friends of the Mt. Children Fund.

Pifteen girls took the course in Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick as part of the H ome Econom· ia coune and they will receive certificates from the State Department for having passed this amount of work.

Health committees have been orEtanized among the mothers in all communities to assist the doctor and nurse with clinics and school examinations, and

to create morc interl"St in Public Health work. In Gatlinburg. this committtt worles through the P .T .A. which is most active in helping with school work.

There is now a resident doctor in Gat1inburg and he seems to be busy enough. It is more con· venient and much Jess expensive to have his services. He is a great help in the case of ace;· dents, and since we have had 11 victims of wrecks in the hospital this year besides many minor emergencies, it is easy to see that he is need ed.

Miss M oore is very amcious to express appreciation to the many Pi Phis who have se nt boxes of baby clothes and bandages. There is use and need for everything.

A summary of the work shows:

Arrow C1'afl

The Arrow Craft Shop was managed by Mrs. Emma P attengill. Iowa 1', until January I st. Shipments were made to 97 dubs and many individuals during the fall shipping season, which she handled very satisfactorily.

Mrs . Ethel Snow, also o f Iowa 1\ came January 1 to take charge of the Shop. Alth ough the business with the dubs was waning after Christmas, she almost immediately found herself receiving big orders fr om stores and shops never dealt with before. This kept up the business through the usually duH months until the ginning of the tourist season.

To quote from Mrs Snow's report. "Arrow Craft has had a prominent place at the M ontclai r Art Exhibit again this year. As a member of the Handicraft Guild we still continue with many o rders handled through AlJanstand, the Guild center, in Asheville, .c. Tbe D ogwood Festival held at Chapel Hill , N.C., made a place for au[ handicraft this year. due to the interest of some of our faithful alumnI!. It was pleasing to get word that in the competition for prizes. oW' Peasant runner got a first for general excellence and the Rainbow shaw l had honorable mention. The American Federation of Arts Exhibit had its last showing in Berea at their Folk Festival in the latter part of April. It has been showing for two years and has brought us many sales with good publicity. At an urgent requnt from Chattanooga, we have a sample exhibit of our weaving at the National Folk Festival being held there this May ."

New gold and brown curtains have been woven to replace the ants that were sold off the windows during the fall rush. It has been hard to keep the actual furnishings and exhibition stock on hand.

In spite of the changes in personnel, this has h«o • big year for Arrow Craft and we have managed to Jill oue orden, with profits. Airs .

Pattengill. Mrs Snow and assistant, Veatress Par· ton, deserve much credit.

Arrow Craft had delegates at the fall meeting of The Southern Highlands Handicraft Guild at Russellville, and at the spring meeting in Knoxville, combined with the Southern M o untain Workas' Conference. The main work of the Guild now is the forming of a corporation with the T.Y.A. and the establishment of a handicraft sbop at Norris.

Hote'

Mrs Georgie Duffield, who has been in charge of the Mt. Vicw Hotel Shop for five ycars, has just finished her busiest year. She makes many valuable contacts for the school and creates much interest among stranAers in our work here.

Mrs. Duffield 's afghans attract more attention than any o th er one piece of weaving we have. She has made this l ittle Shop a successful undertaking from a financial and publicity standpoint.

W.afling

Mrs Irene MitcheU of I owa State College came August 1 to take charge of the weaving departromt. She was u!isted by Alice McCarter until January 1 and then by Lura Ownby.

Regular monthly weaving mtttings were conducted for the local Weaver's Guild and tions were given on color. design, textiles, dyeing of materials, and drafting. Spinning was demonstrated at one meeting by three old ladies, probably the on ly ones left in the immediate neighborhood who know the art from years gone by. At one meeting, Miss C1emmtine Douglas, of the Spinning Wheel Shop in Asheville, gave a very interesting talk on foreign weaving and its origin. The high school girls presented a Danish weaving folk dance. The last meeting was a picnic on Roaring Fork. Due to increased business, it has been necessary to buy great supr.lies of materials. Most yam companies will al ow a discount only on large orders. and it bas been a problem to find a place to store the materials in large quanti tics: instructor was so busy ID the fall and again JO the spring getting out the articles of established popularity, that little time was left for designing.

The eighth grade girls were given instructions in class on the tecbnkalities of weaving.. and on color and design. They wove their graduation dresses of light weight wool in pastel colon.

The weaving r oom never ceases to be a marvel to visitors and even staff members cannot resist learning how to From early morning until noon it i5 almost impossible to get through the crowd of weavers who come to get sup plies and check in their weaving.

Mrs Mitchell resigned and left the middle of May to open a tea room and sho p of her own up on the highW1lY.

COMMITTEE ON EXTENSION

YOU CONNOTE! on Erlension seems to have the principle of laissez-faire this year since we have no specific recommendatiOns to make to the fraternity_

We have continued the contact with Gamma SiAma .t Connecticut State CollcfI;c. To date the colle$f has not received the educaoonal recognition requirM by PI Beta Phi, however both Gamma and the college offer po ib,lities and are deserving of oue attention.

TIle iillumnae club in Shreveport has continued i13 interest in Louisiana State University located at Baton RouE!:e. A group, Pi lkta, has made official inquiry of Pi Beta Phi. The Grand Secretary, who has made an unofficial visit to this campus, feels that the university and Pi Beta present unusual po sibilities for strengthening our position.

The A llanta, alumnae have hem inter· ested in the U n iversity of Georgia at Athens, having approached this committee last year. Early in 1934-3' Alpha Theta sent an inquiry to Pi Beta Phi the University of Georgia offen us a field for mcccasing our strength in that section of the country, the committee awaits the report

COMMITTEE ON SCHOLARSHIP

HS PJUNOPAL problem facing the scholarship committee dunng the last rear was its own reorganization in order to make It morc smsitive to the needs of and fluctuations of scholarship in the chapters. Scholanhi p Blanles Nos. 1 and 2 were rcvised to obtain more information. Scholarship Form A was formulated to assist individual girls encoun tering difficulties in schola.rship. A pamphlet , "Study Aids," was compiled to assist individual stude n ts in their methods of study.

The committee manual was rewritten , requiring a monthly series of reports and answering suggestions between the chapte r scholarship chairmOl and the province scholarship supervisor, the supervisors and the national chairman, and the national chairman and the Grand Secretary. It is designed to keep the committee in dose touch with the problems of the chapters and to enable an exchange of that all chapters may bene6t by the expe rl C11ces of each. Inclu ded in the manual are comp lete ca l endars (or each member of the committee to insure prompt reports.

A new method of grading the chapters in scholarship for the Standardization and Survey re o port Will adopted by Grand Council as was ex-

plained in the last issue of the AI\ROW.

Grand Council bas made the official scholarship rins, heretofore used for varying scholarship awards, a special award. It may henceforth be: awarded only to the girl attaining the highest scholarship in her chapter for the entire year.

Despite the lack of organiz.ation, the supervisors proueded upon their own initiative last year, formulated and passed on many valuable sugges· tions, accoml?Jished fine pieces of work with their chapters. With but few exceptions, the chapters cooperated wholeheartedly. Those with especially low scholarship have, with but one exception, shown dennite improvement.

The committee"s effort for 1935 will be directed toward raising chapters in the lowest third on their respective campuses to the middle third in order that the fraternity shall have no outsta ndingly low chapters.

The committee welcomes and requests suggestions for the improvement of scholarship and is confident that the gi rl s will make 193'-6 an out· standing year i n scholarships.

C O MMITTEE O N T R ANSFERS

FIGURES are perhaps the m o st illuminating check on this year ' s work with transfers :

Transfers reported .. ..... . ...... . ..... 120

Largest number for a single chapter 11 (Oklahoma Alpha)

Chapters reporting no transfers

Chapters failing to report . 2 (Arkansas Alpha , Nevada Alpha)

Return postals from inactive girls 169

In September, chapters were sent requests for lists of transfers to and from all campuses and the names of advisory board members in charge. The chapters were urged to extend all possible tesies to the new girls regardless of affiliation can· siderations. In cases where repJ ies were not reo ceived, follow-up letters were sent in October As an additional means of locating transfers, Mrs. AI· ford was kind enough to include publicity in the Info[mation ARRow about the plan of having indi· vidual transfers notify the committee of school changes.

When the lists we r e correlated, additional names were Stnt to all chapters where more transfers were enrolled than they had reported. The cooperation of the responsible advisory board memben was solicited in furthering transfer contacts; and in localities in which no Pi Phi chapters are located, presi. dents of alumnae clubs were asked to perform the same service.

Letters were sent to all transfers to make them feel national interest in them, to urge their cooperation wherever possible in l ocal activities, and to solicit their support for the Settlement School and the Endowment Fund. Also all girls reported inactive by their chapters received requests for information abQut their present schoo l enrollment, etc. (return postal enclosed). In addition, of course,

there have been numerou s individual letten about chapter problems, advisory board members ' cooperation , etc.

For next year, the committee recommends the in· dusion in the program of Mrs. Alford's suggestion about enlisting the aid and interest of province presidents in transfer adjustment.

The cooperation from chapters in furnishing transfer lists was good-indicating that they had done some early scouting for stray Arrows. Many of the advisory board members, also, wrote interesting letters about what was being done in their respective groups. The attitude of hostess chapters seems to be good , as evidenced especially by the fact that so many transfers are living in Pi Phi houses

Two aspects of the committee' s procedure do not seem effective enough to merit their continuance: the p lan of having transfers notify the committe-e themselves of school changes and the effort to contact girls reported inactive. Only about seven trans· fers took the first respo n sibility in spite of ARROW publicity, and only one of these had not already been reported. Most of the inactive girls have dropped out of school, and returns in establishing transfer contacts are in discouraging l y' small proportion to the numher of letters sent out. In addition , returns on inactive lists are complete so late as to be of comparatively little value.

Any additional suggestions or evaluations of criticisms on procedure will be greatly appreciated. I have enjoyed the work this year so much, espe· cially since 1 miss Pi Phi activities in a school where there are no Greek letters. My sincere thanks to the Grand Secretary, the Director of Central Office, and others who have heJped so willingly!

COMMITTEE ON FRATERNITY STUDY AND EXAMINATION

IT IS WITH (ear and trembling that this report is submitted (or the lear For the past few weeks all sorts 0 things bave been happening which prevented much concentration on reports and with some late reports from provinces not much time can be allowed for checking.

It seems that some o( the chapters misunderstood some o( the questions and therefore felt they shou l d not be compelled to pay a fine for fai l ure, especially when the ARROW misprinted some of the information, therefore there s«m to be anumher of changes on the final consolidated reports. These changes we.re made with the complete approval of the chairman and the supervisor of the provinces concerned.

Before submitting this report the chairman wishes to express her very sincere thanks to Miss •

Onken for her help on numerous occasions, to Mrs. Stark for her genuinely interesting letters throughout the year, to Mrs. Purdunn, who continually thought of things and reminded me of them even before they were due, and to all the supervisors who have been most prompt in thei.r correspondence and accurate in their reports.

It seems that the grades for this year are consistently lower than for the preceding year, but this may be due to the change in the chapter roll or to the misunderstanding of the questions. We hope they will improve when the active chapters are more familiar with this type of examination.

The following report is respectfully submitted by,

TH E PURPOSE of thi s committee is to obtain material for a bulletin of descriptions and suggestions for successful stunts, ru shi ng, homecomings, floats and Founders ' Day celebrations. The different descriptioos are written out, dearly and simply, in Ihis publkation; and it is hoped that these hints are prov i ng helpful to the chapters of the Fraternity Jf you have origi nal idea s for any o f the above headin,RS, please let us kn ow about them "The Social Exchange Bulletin" is your key to this difficult and ever-present question, " Where ca n we find an unusual idea fo r this season ' s rushing party, or who is able to write an entertaining stunt?" Just

consult "The Social Exchange .Bulletin"!

The results are most satisfactory, but we are anxi o us to see each province obtain the coveted 100% E, II and A are the hon o r provinces this year! H o wever, no province had mo re than tw o deJinquent chapters and six of the provinces- I", .1 , Z, I, K and M- had just one chapter that failed to respond.

COMMITTEE ON CHAPERONS

Some courteously the delay; may others follow their example! One unfortunately did not know what it was all about, nor what to do in such an emergency. If officers wou l d be prompt and girl s-no others are worthy of the honor- a nd would read and heed the ARROW Ca l endar, cards would be on time, none sent to Central Office , and none t o Miss Murp hy . who has charge o n ly during the summer.

There were only eleven new chaperons this year; another returned to chapte r after an absence Each chaperon seerru to realize the importance of her position and to wish to give herbest to the girls. They are of a high type socially and educationa ll y, coming from co ll ege and ju ni or

college with special training in nursing , dictetics, teaching, and mwic.

No chapter has yet reported a prospective vacancy; it would be quite idea l jf aU chaperons worlcing harmoniously and constructively could conti nu e with their chapters.

Two of our new chaperons are Pi Phis ; but two Pi Phi, resigned, so the total remains at eight. If anyone knows of one who would fit into the work, pJease .see that she and some chapter get together.

Annual Reports of Province Presidents

ALPHA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

DURING THE past few months Al pha Province has had many changes in its administration.

L ouise Sale Cassady found it necessary to resig n as Province President in the spring, and the prov. iDee was very sorry to lose her. She was admirably suited to the work and had e n deared herself to the province d u eing her short year in office

I n May J accepted the appointment as Alpha Prov i nce president and l ater Grand Council, acting upon M rs. Cassaday's recomme n dation, divided this province which was much too l arge, and M iss Vida Peene of Toronto, former Alpha Province preside n t, was appo in ted preside n t of the eastern ha lf. This includes Nova Scotia A. M aine A, Va· mont A, Vermont B, and Massachusetts A. The wes t ern ha l f of t he province i n cl u des On t ario A, Ontario B, formerly part of Beta province, and New York A, New York.l and New York r.

This province was very f ortunate early last spring in having Florence H unt Webster, assistant to the Grand President, visit each chapter. Both actives and a lumnll! everywhe re felt that her visit was most constructive and ins p iring.

Nova Scotia A and Ontario B are wo rthy additions to the Fraternity and to this province. Both of these chapters were admitted during the past year and are working hard to make the Fra·

ternily proud of them. One member of Ontario B was elected sub·prefect, the highest honor to be given to a girl on that campus.

New York r is remodeling its house and feels that this will help the chapter greatly in its rushing this fall.

Every chapter is stressing better scholarship and the participation in ext.ra-curricular activities. As a result, a n umbe r of chapters report distinct im · proveme n t in schola rship du r i n g the past year, a n d greater interest and accomp l ishment in campus activities. This p rovince was especially honored: this year by Faith A rno l d of V ermo n t .A wi nning the Amy B. Onken award , as well as the D u t· ton scholarship, entitling the recipient to a year's study abroad. The province is we ll represented in Phi Beta Kappa, M ortar B oard, Ka l on, Phi Kappa Phi and several other honorary societies. There are aJso a number of officers of various college organizations and dormitories,

It is a great privilege to have the opportunity of working so closely with these line chapters and we h ope tha t the coming yea r will be one of line accomplishment in Alpha Province.

Respectfully submitted,

CHARLOTTE MARTIN Fox

BETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

A N INSPIRAT IONAL and delightf u l beginning for .l"1.. this year's work was the opportunity of assisting at the installation of Ontario B at Western Ontario University. It was my first insta Ua t ion and with each n ew wearer of the Arrow I received new inspiration and a keener r ealization of the ideals of Pi Beta Phi It was a p l easure, in deed, to have a pa rt i n welcomi n g this new international chapter into our fraternity. Ontario B is a chapter of which Pi Phi can be justly pro u d.

AU of my chapters were visited before Christmas, gi ving both the chapters and me an early u n derstanding of what must be done to assure Beta Province of an efficien t and smooth run n ing group of chapters. 1 found a .:tpi r it of gracious hospitality and cordiality in all chapters. Both the A.lumnr Advisory Committees a n d the chapters sincere in picturing to me chapter conditions. and the wholesome R"onesty of the gids during our conferences was a great satisfaction a n d in· spiration to me.

Cooperation of the girls with each other aDd with me has betn practically 100%. This condition has been one of the greatest factors in making for the progress which 1 feel we have attained. When p rob lems have arisen the girls have had the cour· age to face them squarely, and to place the best interests of Pi Phi before personal desire. Internal development is bound to bt the result of such fine spirit.

Rushing results showed the value of early plans in all chapters. Exceptionally fine pledges were brought into the chapters, and almost without exception these have already proved themselves helpful to their groups. One thing of which I was very proud was the a lmost unanimous expression from Deans of Women regarding the fine spirit exh ibited by our P i P hi g ro u ps during r ushi ng I fee l that this is signi6cant in that it shows that our g IC ls are learning the essential element of good sportsmanshi p and fair pl ay, and that they must realize that they always gain in the end by clean rushing.

P i Phi is represented on the campus with credit by all chapters o f Beta Province Out of six with Panhellenic organizations, Pi Phi claims the presidency of five. Ohio B stands out with five new e l ections to M ortar Board and Ohio 11 claims one. Ontario B, our new chapter, won the office of highest office a girl can hold at the University-, and of three girls chosen for Honour Society-awarded for the most outstanding work foc four J,ears--a1I were Pi Phis. Three chapters were awar ed cups for winning song contests on · the campus Many other honors have been won, included in which are one Chimes, two Wheel and Chain, two Sigma Alpha Iota, three Cresset, three Phoenix, one Phi Lambda Theta, three Phi Upsilon <>:micron. one Delta Phi Delta, four Matrix, four Forum, one Sigma Phi Sigma , one Kappa Delta Pi, two Orchesis and two

presidents, vice-president and one treasurer of W.5 .G.A.

We are not satis6ed with scholarsh ip in the Province, although there have been some o u ts tanding bonors Ohio A has thr« Ph i Beta Kappas , Ohio Bone, Peons)"h ania I' is 3.g:aio .first on its campus with M "e A studenu and the winner of the French Scholarship which means onc year of study in Francc, and Wtst Vir$inia A pledges won the cup for the scholarship among freshmen. All chapters have tri<!d for hjgh scholarship but in cases a few girls have lowered the o thtrwise good chapter record

There has been contioutd growth in loyalty to fraternity projects. Every chapter has contributed to the Settlement School, the Loan Fund and to the Endowment Fund with the of one chapter who failed to contribute to the Loan Fund , thus keeping the Province from 100% in contributions to the three projects this ytar.

The satisfaction md joy of working wjth my is deep, but only as each chapter anaJyzes

Wits faults and shows a desire to improve the weak spots is my association with them of value. M any factors have been responsible for whatever progress has been made in .Beu PrOYioce this year.

ITH THE background of convention and a visit [rom Miss Onken early in the rust stmester , the char,ters of Gamma Province got oH to a flying start I.5t fall. I feel that in case, progress has been contlDued during the yca.r. Because we who represented Gamma Province at convention last summer were deerly agrieved to hear our name read at the bottom 0 the scholarship list, it is with considerable pleasure that we report that three of our seven chapters now stand first among the women's fraternities on their campuses. Chapters achieving this position are Virginia r, North Caroli n a A, and South Carolina A. We have four Phi Beta Kappas , af}d the outgoi n g president of North Carolina Beta won a $100 award for having the highest grades of any fraternity senior for her four years in college.

In general, Gamma Province chapters are smaller than the average on their campuses. The girls seem to feel that this is no handicap except when it comes to rushing or casting votes for campus elections. They prefer quality to quantity. Some of the Jarger chapters on the campuses have suffered from diques and internal friction from which the smaller chapters have been saved. Active chapters in the province range from 15 to 36 memo bers. Pledge groups ran from nine to 24.

A ctivities still continue to suffer somewhat by the failure of chapters to hold their members fo r four years. Virginia A this year had but one stnior; V irginia r had only one who had been in t he: chapter since her freshman year. Activj· ties are num e r ous but not always top-notch. We

Thave a president and vice-president of Y . W.C.A., edito r o f a year.book. three members of organizations corresponding to Mortar Board, severaJ dramatic stars, beauty contest winners, members of the student governing body, president of an athletic association, members of the staff! of college papers, delegates to the Silver Say Y W.C.A. conference, class officers and a chairman of a social standards committee . Elsie Lawrence, president of North Carolina A, was as the first winner of the Amy Burnham Onken award [or Gamma Province

Only two chapters in the province live in houses now. Two have apartments one has a and the other two have chapter rooms. Duke is now remodeling a building for the s pecial use of the women's fraternities. Redecorat· ing, repair work, and new furniture have added to the attractiveness of the various gathering places this year.

My work with the fraternity has meant much to me during the last three years I was especially a:lad that it came during the depression period because it has been interesting to see bow well Pi Beta Phi has come thro ugh. People search around for all so rts of way! to save money but they find that the fraternity is an essential that cannot be spared.

The girls who were pledges when I came into office will be the leaders of their groups next year. They are indeed a fine group of young women wiUl whom it has been a great plea.5UIC to be: friends and wa tch them progress.

DELTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HE YEAR just dosed has brought me one of the happiest experiences of my life, that of meeting the active membtrs and pledges of the of Michigan and Indiana. When I visited three of the groups i n the fall and the other three soon after the holidays, 1 fo und 'them charming

hostesses and I was impressed by the eagerness to achieve for the Fraternity, which the officers and committee chairmen displayed Delta Province has a variety of campuses but on each J found the same pride in 11 B the same earnest desire to realize its ideah

THE SEPTEMBER ARROW

Scholarship, always our first concern, has been a less serioU$ problem than usual, Michigan A retained the first place on its campus won last year, other groups had a high standing and the chapter which has bttn lowtSt achieved the hiAhest rank it has had for several semesters. For the most part, the attitude toward .scholarship is a very wholesome one. We have two • K 41$. o n e. B K, two girls made "s traight" A's and one of them was graduated magna cum laude.

Rush, that hectic prelude to the year's work, but so important and necessary to OUf continuity, brought .0. Province some o u tstanding pledges. Three chapters felt the results of their rus h were most gratifying. One chapter was disappointed in numbers but gained an unusually strong pledge group. Pledge supervision was well planned and carried out in all chapters. A larger per cent of girls pledged have hem initiated this year than usual, which retI«ts, I believe, the in creased attention which chapters are giving to high-school records in the selection of their members

The housin,l!: of the chapters of d Province is little changed. Michigan H, Indiana H, and In diana d own attractive and comfortable houses. Mi chigan A lives in an attractive house owned by the college. Freshmen on each of these campuses live in a freshman dormitory. Michigan B found it necessary to have an annex, which accommodated several of the sophomores. Ind iana A has a chapter room in the dormitory and Ind iana r has been renting its house . This chapter has long wanted to build and has decided that the time is ripe. Ground will be broken before school opens this fall and they hope to be in the new house at the beginning of the s«ond semester .

The financial status of the chapters and the house boards is excellent. the latter re fl ecting the interest and work of the alumOle. Each chapter contributed to the Settlement School , the Loan Fund, and the End o wment.

Alumnae Advisory Committees are very active and contribute immeasurably to the maintenance of the Fraternity's prestige and the success of the chapters in this province. With but one exception, the

Tcommittees have come very close to the ideal in their relationships with the chapters. My report would be incomplete jf I should fail to mention the service which our chaperons are rendering the chapters in the sympathetic me'Cting of problems, in the establishment and of social standards and ideals.

ConfC!rences with the Deans of Women were really the "hi,Rh spots" of my visits because, without exception, they paid high tribute to the Fraternity, to the memberShip of our chapters, and to the alumnae who arC! giving so generously of them· se lv es that the chapters may thrive.

Four of my charters need no urging to take part in the program 0 extra·curricular activities. The othe r two should stress this phase of campus life a little more Some of the outstanding honors which the chapters have had include a junior class president , two presidents of players ' clubs , president % T .6., two presidents of honor societies, a yearbook editor, an editor, acting editor, and a manag· ing editor of school papers, an associate yearbook editor, second place in the Indiana State Oratorical Contest, a " prom " queen, other class R O.T.e. Cadet Colo nel, winners of two beauty contests. There have b«n outstanding members of e l: cit, musical and dramatic organizations, members of student government, debate teams, Y. W C.A cabinet, a championship hodc:ey team, class and organization officers, a nd committee members.

Cooperation on the part of the chapters has left little to be desired and the willingness shown by the gids to do whatever is asked of them has been most helpful and encouraging. I am appre· dative of the contacts which the office of Province President has brought me.

The year has given me a deeper understandin,st of the work of Central Office, Grand Council and its assista nt s and the chairmen of national commit· tees and tireless efforts that IT 11 <II may keep its high place in the fraternity world and that the aids may gain the utmost from their active chapter experience is indeed an inspiration and a challenge. HELEN Seo".

EPSILON PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HIS SECOND year as Epsilon Province PresidC!nt has brou,dlt me even more joy than the first year. It has 1ieeo a real education and inspi.ration to work: with the $irls, aJumnae, and oational officers and to be an Integral part of such a splendid organization as Pi Beta Ph i.

I made all of my chapter visits in the early faU and I found that in every case the chapter delegates and visiting chapter members had brought much inspi ration and real workable points back to their chapters from conventio n They took back something of the thrill and joy received from the contact with national officers and representatives from other chapters, and more than anything else. the realization of the significance of ow national organization.

Missouri A , the only chapter in Epsilon Province living in a chapter house, is still very proud of their southern colonial house which is now 6ve years old. They are very fortunate in having a lovely chaperon who has been with the

chapter for nine years and who will be back: next year. Missouri B was fortunate in having their alumnz redecorate their rooms in the Woman 's Building last fall. They are most attradive. M issouri r was in the same apartment again this year, but it was redecorated in the fall a nd it looks like new. Kentucky A remained in the same apartment which is directly across from the campus. They redecorated and refurnished their apartment last fall, and now have a dining room where the girls can have luncheon together during the w«k Tmness« A's alumnz redecorated their bungalow for them last fall. They made many improvements.

The Dans of Women expressed appreciation of the cooperation given them by the Pi Phi chapten. Without exception their conferences were most gratifying. The advisory boards have been a constant help to the chapters: much credit is due these wpmm who give 50 much of their time and thought to the cbaptc!rs.

Scholarship, wbich is "tr a problem, is Dot all that it should in some of the chaptttS. The chapters are conumed over their ratings and are trying to malc.e some improvement. :Missouri A ranked 6rst for second last yar as did Missouri r.

AU of the chapters have held their share of exlrJ.·cun-icuJar honors. At Ktntudcy A. tbq- have of Y.W.C.A., one elected to Theta Delta Chi, vice. president of the senior dass, 5«' retaty of sophomore class, leads in senral plays, second in S imming Meet, and of Woman's ltaguc. Tennasee A. had president of W.A.A., president. sccret:ary, and treasurer of Y .W.CA ., S«:retary-Treasurer of Student Body, two electra to Theta Alpha Phi, loeb in several plays, five class officers, three officers of French club, Miss University of Chattanooga, and the Most Popular Missouri A bad one clectrd to Mortar Board, Secretary-Treasu.rrr of Student BodY. four elected to Cwms, honorary sophomore organization, one elected to Gamma Alpha Chi, one elected to Alrha Kappa Delta, president of Junior J...t-ague 0 Women Voters, two memf>ers of W.S.G.A. Council, $avita.r Beauty Queen , Homecoming Quttn, and ' M ' Meru Mis · souri B had one elected to Phi Beta Kappa , one to Sigma Xi, one elected to Morta.r Board,

one to Kappa Delta Phi, one to PI Mu Epsilon, and the vice--president of W.s.GA . At .Missouri I' they h.d one elected to Skiff which is similar to Mortar Boud, one elected to AJpha Mu Omega. president of Panbellenic, secretary of senior class. and several leads in plays.

Rwhing ",-as most successful this year. J the small number of bids lost may be taken as indica· lion of the truth of this statement. Chapters showed unusually good judgment in choosing wellbalanced pledge groups.

LocaJ Panhellenics are far from perfect. Either they are non.functionlng or they diffused with jealousies and their business consists of petty problenu. The quota system has been put into usc at Drury, and the chapter is limited to thirty-two members. The chapter is trying to abolish it.

Epsilon Province has progressed in JOtemal development this past ytu. When then bas bef-n a problem, the chaptn' has been willing to face it, and has had the courage to place the best interests of Pi Phi before personal feelings. This to serve the fraternity h., made my worle with the chapters in Epsilon Province an unending source of joy :tnd inspiration.

ZETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

A S I VIEW in retrospect my first year's experience ..l'"'l.. as uta Province President I wonder if the tables have not been turned! For ] fttl it is ] who have had dttr and meaningful glimpses of the inner heart 0 Pi Phi, and with the four active chapters, the beating pulse of the fraternity, ] have felt joy in their creative activity.

The culmination of the year's program came at the 6rst Florida state-wide convention held in Orlando the second in May The group of nearly two hundred was composed of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma actives and alum na! from all over the stale. Miss Onken's prnmce was the impetus to the success of our inlant organization. The potenti. alities of convt'Otion are a closer cooper-ation between the active chapters and the alumnr, a knowledge and sought-for solution to problems involved in pledge recommendations and rusrung. an appreciation of local problems in common and II. widening sense of the ramifications and responsibilities of National. Alabama A. the fOUIth chapttt in uta province. is to be invited to meet with the Florida chapters at Tallahassee for the 1936 state convention.

Scho l arship in tbe province has followed rather closely the ups and downs of our national eel> nomic cycle. Alabama A rose from filth to first place; Florida A remained only a fifth of a point from first place; and Florida r continues to maintain her place in the upper third on R ollins campus Flonda B is io the lower third and in realization of ber deficiency hu voluntarily placed each of her members under individual probation to Grand Council until the academic average is raised.

Both Florida Band r are fortunate in having as chaperons women of such charm and graciousness whose presence in both chapters has made the

In the case of each chapter I find that the Deans of Women can give only favorable .repDru in regard to the chapter as a whole. They have in general found the members and pledges a hBl"momous and coopecative group who are leaders for most part in every phase of campus life

In donations to the Settlement School and Loan Fund we are 100 per cmt contributors.

Rushing results this year were unprecedented lOr" Zeta chapters. Only six bids were lost to other fraternities all over the province. Fl o rida Irs pledge group consisted of thirty-eiAht.

In the of extra-cw:riculac activities there has been interest and participation , but not to the extent that I should like to see for next year.

Florida A has taken honors in having the De Land H omeco ming Gty Hostess, vice-president of student body. two members in Torch and Saoll, presidmt of College Government lor 193}-36, editor·in-chief of the 1936 annual and two members in Phi Society.

Florida r had a member of the Student Council and three members of Phi Beta.

The greatest problem existing in the province is the lack of interest on the part of the alumnre in the actives. We are hoping that the convention will prove a solution to this problem, and that it will strengthen an interest in developing a sense of responsibility to the national organization.

Orientation into the work of the province presi-

Edency has been a delightful experience made possible by the help of my predecessor, Rebekah Stewart, members of Grand Council, and the remarkable personal interest and guidance of Miss Onken. To these I wish to express my gratitude and deepest appreciation.

ETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

ARLY IN the fall, 1 visited the chapters. This being my first year as Province President, I realized how much a personal contact would mean in my work with them . Pledge Day for Illinois A is in December, just before the Christmas holidays, so I J;>Ostponed my visit to them. until February, givlOg me an opportunity to have some contact with the pledges there. I am always in close contact with Illinois and visited them in January.

In April, from the twenty-sixth to the twentyeighth, was held our first Province Conference_ Illinois E was our hostess chapter, and all of the other Chapters had from thrtt to ten actives attending. Working with the chapters. 1 have felt strongly the influence of the National Convention, and was very glad when Illinois E suggested the Province gathering. All of the chapters were so enthusiastic, and it was another opportunity to obtain a new inspiration and a broader national viewpoint. Our round table discussions were most interesting, and ] hope helpful. We also had a line alumnre round table with a splendid leader. The girls so enjoyed the association with the other Pi Beta Phis, and we were most fortunate to have our Grand President, Miss Onken with us, and also Mrs. Webster, the former Province President, who is noW' the Assistant to the Grand President. On April 27 we celebrated Founders' Day. with a luncheon attended by two hundred and fifty. actives and Alumna:.

With great pride, I can say that of the seven chapters were first in scholarship on their campuses the first semester, Wisconsin B, Illinois B-.6., and Illinois Z. J must also admit that one chapter had the lowest rank among the four national women's fraternities on their campus. Wisconsin A was third, competing with twenty-one, but the other two chapters did not do SO well. At our Province Conference, we had a splendid scholarship discussion, with a leader who had many fine suggestions. The chapter she works with is first on their campus, and I feel sure much of their success is due to her constructive work. All of the chapters benefited by her advice.

My conferences with the Deans of Women at the seven schools were most satisfying. Universally, they expressed confidence in our Pi Beta Phi chapters, they were strong in their praise of the national fraternity's desire for such high ideals. spoke highly of the character of the girls, and of the girls' ability, and of the cooperation they received from the Pi Beta Phis. All seven Deans assured me of the high place in regard held by the Pi Beta Phi chapters. I feel that this is worthy of much praise_

Every ch3pter has given to the Settlement

LuCY POPB

School , the Loan Fund, and the Endowment Fund. In most cases this is part of the year's budget. The girls are certainly activity minded. 1 was amazed at the many different activities they were interested in, and in the active part they took . All of chai?ters have an activity chart, and in the entire province not more than eight girls had no activity listed under her name_ AU of the chapters seemed to have efficient activity chairmen, who kept a card file as well as the chart.

I cannot begin to list the honors won_ We have Phi Beta Kappas, five Phi Kappa Phis, and SIX Mortar Boards. and every chapter has a long list of other campus honors. such as officers in Y.W.C.A., W.S.G.A., class officers, special scholarship honors, scholarship awards, and popularity awards.

There has been no change in the houses. Wiscon!lin A has their house full. and other girls are waiting for a vacancy_ Wisconsin B has a nice house, but the college does not permit women students to live in fraternity houses. They do enjoy It very much for all Pi Beta Phi gatherings. and it gives them more unity. Illinois .A has a room in a house on the campus. There the coJlege does not permit women to live in fraternity houses. They have just raised some money to have their room refurnished and redecorated. Illinois 8-.& is not only not permitted by the college to live in a fraternity house, but they are not even permitted to have a room. They hold their ings in one of the girl's rooms, in the dormitory and other fraternity functions are held at the of the Pi Beta Phis in the city. They deserve very much credit, fC?r their real companionship and unity, under such Circumstances. lllinois E is enjoying her lovely home. with twenty-eight living there. lllinois Z alsd has a very adequate and attractive home, with forty-four living in it, and even with such a large number, it is most efficiently managed and has an air of charm that only real effort and ability can create. Illinois H has the unique situation of a house and no one to live in it. The college requires freshmen to live in the dormitories, and all of the upperclassmen are town girls. They are so Joyal that they spend many wttk-eods there together, have all of their fraternity gatherings there, and enjoy it in every possible way, with a wonderful chaperon who lives there. making it possible (or the girls to use the house. to such a great extent.

The Advisory Boards function with every chapter, but of course to a greater degree in some cases than in others. They certainly deserve much credit for the time and thought they give to the chapter and none can question their loyalty. Wisconsin A and JIIinois E both publish a

pap« quuterly (or their Alumnr. which helps them to kttp In cJosa touch with each other.

Last, but far from least, may J boast. that this Province is the proud possessor of the Balfour Cup? IllinOis Z has brought thu honor to us, and I find that bivinS it in this Province gives me, os wdl os the <hapten, a .tty high standard to strive for.

T1 have had Miss Onlcen's inspiration. faith, and encouragemmt and my prcd«essor' 5 eve r present help not onl,. in limes of trouble, but at all 1 want so much to be able to give to my chapters that same (<<ling of security and guidance. that both.Miss Onken and Mrs Webster have givm me. Respectfully submitted, INEZ WEBSTEI.

THETA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HIS FOUB.TH yrac as Province President has the happiest year of those spent in work for the fraternity and because of closer acquaintance has brought about a more workable knowledge of the chapter' s needs. Each of the chapters has been anxious to co-opcrate and has given me and sincere asslStance, making JOy out of work which mjght be a task. With the progress of the seven chapters I am confident that the fraternity as a whole has bene-Etcd.

The record of the chapters in scholarship bas been extremely gratifymg. Five of the seven have raised their scholastic standing. Not one bas low· ered its standing. From the last averages available (some from the sprmg semester of 1934 and some (rom the fall of 1934) there were two chapters holding first place, one holding second place, and three holding third place. Manitoba A and Iowa r hold first place. Five chapters are in the upper third. one in the middle third and one in the lower third. In addition to the improved. utings t the· attitude in the chapters has been bettered proportionately In the past years we have stressed more and more the importance of the right atti· tude towards scholarship on the part of individuals. There has been a decided effort to break away from stringent rules and to place the major share of the responsibility on each person. This last year proves to me that this is the ideal way to handle scholarship problems and the results have justified the means. Each sroup, without exception, realizes the true value of good scholarship.

Theta Province chapters have been outstanding in o.:tra<urricular activities. In some cases it has been necessat)' to curtail participation rather than to encourage it. Our goal has been that each girl be actively participating in ODe major activity. All of the chapters bave received their share of high honors and two of the chapten have gained the distinction of having individual members win the highest awards open to gids.

Rushing seasons last faB were generally very successful. Much of this success was due to detailed and the work of the rush captains during the summer months. Ooe hundred and thirteen invitations to members hip were issued in

the Province and only four were lost.

There have been no changcs in house mothers this year. We feel very fortunate in baving these splendid women in our bouses as managers and chaperons. Ther are giving the girls social traiolOg and are succeeding io establishing a reputation for hospitaJity and dignity for the Pi Phi houses.

Conferences with the Deans of Women were bighly satisfactory. Words of praise for the groups wC1'e unaounowly given and through these I realized more distinctly the place our girls and our fraternity are making for themselves in the collegiate world.

Contributions to the national philanthropies have been generous this year. AHhougb not all of the reports are in, every chapter but one has contributed to the Settlement School. the Loan Fund, and the Endowment Fund. 1 feci su.re that when final reports are in all the chapters will have contributed something to aU three philanthropies. Some contributions have been small but have represented a real sacrifice on the part of the chapter. Two chapters have materially raised their donations and one gave the money won as a prize for selling year books to the School. National view point is excellent in all seven chapters.

This reJX'lrt would not be complete without a word of appreciation for the splendid co-operation given me by the Advisory Boards. Without exception, these women have worked diligently and have been unselfish in giving time and interest. A great deal of the credit for the success and improvement of the chapters goes to these women

The four Iowa chapters were privileged this spring io having visits from Miss Onken and received help and inspiration which will extend into next year's work:.

To the national officers I wish to extend my appreciation for thei.r unfailing help and interest. Without the co-operation and friendliness of these women, this worle could not be as pleasant and profitable. It has been a real privilege to know and work: with such charming and gracious Pi Phis and to feel an integral part of such an organization as Pi Beta Phi.

IOTA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

T

HE CONTACTS and associations which I have made this year as Iota Province President, are even greater than I anticipated when I accepted the position. It was very interesting to read reports of other officers' visits to the chapters; then actually visit the chapters. Having been out of school for

a number of years:, much of the work was new; but the spirit and Jove of fraternity remains the same.

One thing that seemed very admirable was the spiri.t among (he girls to want to do what was expected of them, and to do it well. 10 scholarship

THE SEPTEMBER ARROW

they aU have shown an earnest desire to stand high. At the present two chapters, namely South Dakota A and Wyoming A.. rank first on their campuses, and Colorado B ranks fir st among social groups with a membership of over ten There have been many h o nors Among these are Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi , Mortar Board and others. There were three Mortar Board Presidents in Iota Province thi s year, Wyoming A , Colorado A., and Kansas B.

That Pi Ikta Pbis are taking an active part in atr3<uccicuJar activities is evidenced by the long lists sent in by each chapter, some very outstandi ng honors such as Engineers' Queens, University Sweethearts , Po pularity winners , and the like have come to the chapters too.

It was a pleasure indeed to meet the chaperons at the different chapters , and in every place I found a delightful and charming woman Jt is fine for the girls to be associated with such refined and cultured people, and the inBuence they have adds greauy to the chapter.

It was gratifying too, to get the reports J did from the Deans. All of them praised the Fraternity, and offered constructive criticism for each chapter.

All these chapters own their homes with the

Mexception of South Dakota A and Colorado B South Dakota A had hoped to build this spring, but plans did not materialize.

There is a splendid feeling between the AJumne Advisory Boards and the chapters, and in most instances, the chapters are turning to the aJumne for assistance, and in most instances the duenne advisers feel it a privilege to serve their chapters.

Convention did a great deal for all toward building up a strong national viewpoint. Then Miss Onken ' s visits to Kansas A. Kansas B and Nebraska B, and Mrs . Alford ' s visits to Wyoming A. Colorado A, and Colorado B were a great inspiration to the girls. All chapters contributed to the Settlement School and Endowment Fuod and four to tho Loan.

1 have had the best of co-operation from every chapter but one, and that difficulty has been smoothed out now. I am looking forward next year to even greater accomplishments. The privilege of serving the fraternity this year has been enjoyed to the utmost and I wish to o:press my appreciation to aJl who have made it possible.

FAITH MARTIN HANNA

KAPPA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

y FIRST YEAR as Kappa Province President has has indeed been a happy one. Since I had been closely associated with an active chapter for two years 10 the capacity of chaperon, I accepted my appointment with enthusiasm. It has been a rllre privilege to come in such dose contact with the other five chaptc.rs in this province and I have enjoyed visiting thml equally as much as I have enjoyed living with Oldahoma A. The sincerity and frankness with which they presented their chapter problems has been enlightening and their cooperation inspiring, making my work not a task but a joy. J found each group to be charming, gracious, and hospitable, living acco rding to the frateroity ' s ideals and aspiration in every way.

It was the good fo rtune of the two Oklahoma chapters to entertain a national office r, Mrs Smith, the Grand Vice-President. H er broad vision was inspiring and her constructive suggestions were helpful to both groups.

Four o f the chaptelS in this province maintain houses, the other two , chapter rooms. While the home of Texas A is very comfortable, the size is far inadequate for the chapter's needs, since they have an unusually large group. They plan to have • lar$er house io the near future. Oklah oma B. too, IS ambitious for a more spacious house, although their present one is entirely without encumberance and very comfortable. Oldahoma A and Arkansas A are both beautifully and housed in comparativdy new barnes. Texas B maintains a chapter room several blocks from its campus. This is a decided handicap to the chapter and it is to be hoped that fraternity lodges will soon be allowed on the S.M.U. campus. Louisiana A has a very attractive cottage near the Newcomb . campus which they use for recreation between classes, and for their meetings and their weekiy luncheons.

While there is room for improvement in scholarship. the general average of the provin ce is good. Four out of the six chapters rank in the upper third. Oklahoma B has the distinction of being the only chapter raoJcing first on its campus. For four consecutive semesters they have won the scholarship cup.

This province is fortunate in having three members of Pi Phi and a Pi Phi sister as chaperons. Arkansas A had the privilege this year of initiating their chaperon. Mrs Walker She is a charming woman and is not only an asset to the chapter. but to the fraternity as well Mrs. Noble will return to Oklahoma B for her eighth year of service. She will be remembered as one of the honor guests at Convention last year Tau A has a new chaperon, Mrs Waltmon, sister to one of the active members. They are very proud of her I have had the pleasure of chapuoning Oklahoma A for three years.

There has been o:ceUcot co-o.,pcratJon between the alumne advisory committees and the active chapters throughout the province. In each case there is a spirit of active interest and congeniality. The at large, too, have $iven the chapters loyal support, financially, in rwhing and in entertaining. Confereoces with the deans of women were en· joyable and helpful. They were complimentary in their comments on the chapters and showed genuine interest in their progress.

Each chapter has gained its share of honors, both scholastically and in o:tra-curricular activities. Texas A leads the list with one Phi Beta Kappa, three Mortar Boards, and seven AJpha Lambda Deltas. besides numerous memberships in other honorary organizations, departmental clubs, and several student government and dan officers. Texas B has one Mortar Board, one AJpha Lambda Delta, two mrmben of thr Frrshman Scholarship Club, ""sides eight memberships in other honorary dubs,

thrre student gove.rnmmt officers, and a good cOOltat..iOQ in departmental and athletic dubs. They are very proud of the fact that one of their members is to be of the 1936 yearbook, this being the nest time that the hooor bas come to • girl 00 that campus. Louisiana A has both the bwiness manager and editor of the Newcomb yearbook. Thq- have one Phi Beta Kappa., President of Mortar 8oacd. seven 00 the Dean's Honor Roll and are better in the 6ne arts organizations than any other chapter in the province. Many of the I1W!Olbers were prominent io tM Mardi Gras festivities and the chapter is vC'ry proud. too, of its May Queen this year. The Pi Beta Phi FelJowship was awarded Katherine Finney of Arkansas A. This group also has one Phi 8C'ta Kappa. one A.A.U.W. scholarship WUllIcr, eight mmmers on the UoiHonor Roll. one Sigma Alpha Iota. and many memberships in miscellaneous organhations.

This was due to the ract that there was an unusually large amount of good ma.terial available in the province.

GLADYS HAVES SavALLY

LAMBDA PROVINCE PRESIDENT

HB CHAPTEILS of Lambda Province have sbown a broader national viewpoint this year, a fact which I have attributed to two causes: first, as ow province was one of the bosttSS provinces for the Convention hcJd last June in Yellowstone National Park, many of the actives from the vuious chapters of this province we.re able to attmd and. second, all of the chApters wae visited last faU by Ruth Bar_ rett Smith, our Grand Vice-President. The visit of a member of Grand Council with Mrs. Smith's understanding and viewpoint is of inestimable value to the chapters.

In all of the institutions in this province, with the exception of the University of AJberta, there has been an increase in enrollment and this has resulted in IUBer chapter numbers and optimism on the part of faculties and studmts.

The scholarship of the province has not been as high as we have desired. We have had three of the chapters in the upper third, two in the middle third, and one in the lower third. At the University of Alberta, the groups are not compared in any way. so we have no Imowledge of the scholastic standing of Alberta A.. There are six stra..ight "A'" students io the various chapters of the province.

With the exception of one chapter, 1 have had perfect co-operation this past year. I have felt that the officers had well chosen and were carrying on their work most efficiently.

We feel that this was a banner year in aU of the chapters as far as rushing was concerned. I found a fine group of freshmen and believe that, with a few exceptions, the')' wiJl be strong members of Pi Beta Phi. In checking over the few that could not be initiated because of low grades. I think that the chapters realize that they must rush the gids that have had good scholastic records in their respective higb schools. I wish to express my gratitude to the fine pledge suptrvisors that have worked in the chapters as they haye been so instrumental in training our freshmen for future service in the fratunity.

Financial conditions seem to be good throughout the province although the budgets have been strained with the risins cost of food stuffs. AU of the chapters, with the exception of Alberta .A and Montana A, are living in their own homes and in each case the payments on these homes have been met. Three new buildings are being erected with government funds on the Montana State College campus to howe the six national women's groups on that campus. This is a new experiment in ow western schools and it wiU be very interesting to watch developments. The buildings are expected to be ready for occupancy this fall.

Conferences with the Deans of Women were most enjoyable and helpful. They spoke of the fine co-operation that was given to them by the chapters by Pi Beta Phi. Two of the Deans ranked Pi Phi as first on their campuses while the other five placed them near the top.

For chaperons in these chapter houses of Lambda Province, we are most fortunate in having women who are charming in manner as weU as being genuinely interested in helping the girls to feel their chapter houses are truly chapter homes. Washington B is losing Mrs. Struplere this year after she has chaperoned them for four years.

The interest in campus activities is shown by the many important campus offices held by the girls. Dwing my visits. ) found that the active members were helping the pledges choose not only activities which would help them, but those to which they could contribute something really worth while. Also. the actives are interested in the various college groups to which they belong. Many important bonors and offices are held by Pi Phis this year. We have four Pb..i Beta Kappas, three Phi Kappa Phis, Jive Mortar Boards, and many in other honoraries. There has bt-en an "ALL School Queen" and a "Queen of the Banff Winter Carnival." We bave had a president and a treasurer of A. W .5. and a vice-president and treasW'er of W.A.A.

With one exception, I have received splendid

SEPTEMBER ARROW

co-operation from the AJumnz Advisory Committees. This has surely hem appreciated as the wei fare of the chapters is reBected by the time and effort given by these fine aJwnnz.

Five of the chapters have contributed to the Settlement School, the Loan Fund, and the Endowment Fund.

I n dosing, I wish to thank the chapters for

Otheir fine cooperation and their hospitality extended to me during my visits to them; to thank the fraternity for the opportunity of working with these actives and for Pi Beta Phi; and to thank Mi55 Onken for her unfailing assistance, inspi.ration, and understanding.

M U PROVINCE PRESIDENT

WING to the illness of Florence .Allen Smith _ and also of members of her family. it was impossible for her to submit a report for AltRow publication. The ARRow Editor had the privil ege of making official visits to two chapters in the province, celebrating Founders' Day and meeting mformaUy with four more, and having correspondence with the remaining chapter in the provinceshe bas undertaken to write briefly of conditions in the province during the year.

This has been a year of fine achievement in Mu province. and the end of the year finds all the chapters in good condition.

Everywhere the chapters were successful in attracting fine classes of pledges. in spite of continuing financial difficulties which have the pledging of many gids who would have under more prosperous conditions. I n one case. at Stanford, a quota system has been p u t into eHect this year, al10wing the pledging of only ten girls by California A, the number being determined by the amount of accommodations available in the house. This was a distinct handicap to us, and a continuance of the system may be a serious problem for the chapter.

All the chapters in the province own their homes, and are managing their finances well. At California A, plans have been made for a large addition to the house, which will be ready for occupancy at the beginning of the college year. At Utah A, the size of the chapter bas so greatly increased that a larger house seems necessary, and plans for it are being considered. In aU

cases, the houses are in fine condition, and a r e a credit to the Fraternity.

There have been several changes of housemothers in the province this year. At Nevada A , an interesting experiment has been wo r ked. out, with two of our own girls doing the cooking. They would otherwise have had to work outside of the house, in order to remain in college, and they have greatly preferred this arrangement. The plan has had the approval of the Dean California B has had for several years the plan of having an alumna as house-manager, but the arrangement will not be continued.

Scholarship has shown improvement in most of the chapters this year. Two chapters. Arizona A and Nevada A. were first for the first semester on their campuses, and they hoped to keep the place for the whole year. Four new + B Ks have been reported. one of them, Frances Parsons of Utah A, being the first gicl to be so honored in that university, another, Jean Williams, California r, being president of her chapter, and the other two being members of California .0., Margaret Woods and Betty Seery.

Deans of Wome n have spoken well of all the chapters, r,raisin g the cooperatio n and fine spirit of the gir s.

Truly this is a province to be I2roud of! The Editor 1$ qualified to speak from four years' experience as its president.

Respectfully submitted, ADELE TAYLOR ALFORD

Are y ou tra nsf e rring t o another coUe ge this year? If 10, please notify tbe Committ ee on Trans fers whose a ddreu is give n in th e Directory at the front of this iss ue.

Ann ual Reports o f Province Vice-Presidents

ALPHA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

IT 15 HA1D to realiz.e that my fiat year as Alpha Province Vice-Praideot has come to a close. There have been hectic moments when, like the woman in the story who "rocked the cradle with ooe foot and wiped her away with the otm:r;' I tried to type club letters with one hand and cun my housr and family with the otber_ However, 1 consoled myself with the knowledge that others had accomplished, and were still accomplishing similar tasks under similar difficulties, and thus gaino:l the courage to carry on.

This year has been mainly a " get-acquainted" ODe for me ) have five dubs to visit before next Convention. viz.; Boston, Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, and Westchester County. I bad very enjoyable visits with the New York. Western Massachusetts, Hartford, New Haven, and Bwlington Oubs following the Nova Scotia Alpha installation in November. Of the clubs visitrd and from the letters and reports received from all of them, all but Western Massachusetts are functioning as success· fully as possible considering their various problems. The above·mentioned dub re-organized for 1934being ioactive in 1933-1934, but a recent letter from their corresponding s«cetary informed me that they find it impossible to continue as an organized dub and are giving up their charter.

IAccording to suggestions fr om the Grand VjcePresident, 1 am urging them to try to bold together [or anotbu yur with help for their Dearest chapter -.Massachusetts A.-a.s an in<:cotivt.

One new club bu been formed-Westchestu County, New York-and I hope for at Jeast three othttS in the near futurr. io Halifax, N.S., Hamil. too, Ontario, and in Albany, N .Y . The Hamilton .Iwnnz were hoste55n for the aU-Ontario reunion 10 honor of our Founders in April.

Memberships have increased in all except two of the dubs. All but three contributed to Settlement School, [our gavc donations to the Loan Fund, and rwo to the Endowment Fund. Several had sales of Arrowcraft Products. Of the active (hapten, aU Senior Dues are in, fow gave donations to Settlement School, five to the Loan Fund. and two to the Endowment Fund.

In dosing] wish to thank the members of Grand Council for their patience during the past seasoo, also Louise Richardson who has helped me with her past upt'rieoce in the office I now hold. and the officers and members of all the dubs in Alpha Province for their hospitality and their monthly letters which were too friendJy and informal to be mere reports.

MARY HERDMAN Scorr

BETA PRO VINCE VICE-PR ESIDENT

AM QUITB sure that no province officer ever succeeded a more efficient or a more popular Pi Phi than 1 did as Beta Province Vice-President. Mrs. Curtis resigned her office at the 1934 Con· vention, but her Ulterest in dub work and development did not end then, and she has stood ready during the year to come to my aid, and has done so promptly whenever I signalled. Thank you, frances Curtis!

I have greatly enjoyed and appreciated the correspondence with the clubs. They have, with a exceptions, written me regularly and informatively. I t is difficult sometimes to write to just a name, as to just a group, and I hoped to establish a personal contact with each dub during the year. I visitrd fourtffi1 of them; whenever 1 thought I'd surely be able to attend a regular meeting of one of the others, l'd nnd they had a men' s night scheduled! T hose dubs I visi ted welcomed me with all ness, and it was good to be accepted among them. As the officer Jists come in, I find that many names ue personalities, and I shall, 1 feel sure, find our next year's relations Jess impersonal by reason of this; I hope this feeling will be shared by the clubs as they read my letters and as they write to me.

Beta Province has added two new dubs to its roster within the yeat, one at Charleston, West Virginia, which has promised well from the be·

ginning, and is building up interest for next year, and the other at London, Ontario, whose charter members became Pi Phis at the installation of Ontario Beta. One Dew club at the CJ:treme south of our province, and the other at the extreme north!

Club membership ranges from seven to ninetyfour. Naturally, perspectives are different. A situa· tion to be met in a large dub may be a situation to be accepted in a small one, but the dub of ninety·four members is no more loyal to the Fraternity than is the club of seven members. One dub ' s membership is confined to the limits of a smaJl town; another draws from thirty-four towns in a metropolitan area I have found no two dubs exactly alike ; they differ so widely on many scores that their unity of purpose is the more noteworthy.

I am happy to have been given the privilege of serving as a province officer: it had never occurred to me that such a thing might be! 1 am trying to serve the clubs wel1; for myself, I have made contacts this year, through letters and personal visits, that 1 sball never forget. It would have been impossible to be in touch with the business of the Fraternity without experiencing increasing admiration of the splendid cooperation within the organi. zation, and appreciating more full, the significance and influence of Pi Beta Phi.

CANDACE CLOYD JOHNSON

GAMMA PROVINCE VICE.PRESIDENT

GAMMA PROVINCB Vice.President has been nick-named "Dc Dafoe," Dot because of any outstanding piece of work done. but because of the number of dubs in the province. The quintup lets at th e end of this year sho w as healthy a record as the famous Canadian ones.

The dubs have worked consi s tently. cooperated , promptly attend ed to reports and show an active interest in th e ir work. Credit for any impr ove.. ment goes to Miss Onken. Her d e lightful visit to our province in the fall stimulated plans, gave us a broader viewpoint , and increased our national perspective . Since Miss Onken met with the dubs this year, I plan to visit the dubs in the fall and am looking forward to this personal contact in pleasant anticipation.

Our total membership in the province has increased from 142 paid members to O::S We stiH have a long way to go to report all resident Pi Phis affiliated with clubs, but we are still strug.

Bgling, and hope some day to attain our goal. AU dubs and chapters have contributed liberally to the Settlement School, and the contributions to the Endowment Fund and Loan Fund surpass those of last year. I am delighted. to report that the Senior dues came in promptly and with 100% response. Clubs located near chapters find a real pleasure in aiding the g irls with their problems whether social or financial , and in return are en· couraged by the enthusiasm of youth.

May I thank you for the opportunity of serving you? I want to express my appreciation to na· tional and dub officers for their fine cooperation and splendid accomplishments, I am grateful to them for their help and encouragement.

The time has come to tum aside from the past with its del#thtful memories, and welcome the future May the health record of the quintuplets continue as we step over the threshold into the coming year.

EMMA DRullY SIPPEL

DELTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

BING A newcomer in the official family of Pi Beta Phi, Delta Province Vice-President sub-mits her first annual report with great fear and trembling. The ability to give all credit due her province is not one of her characteristics. Never having been good at "Jiggers and sums," it was with great surprise that she viewed the totals for the various province funds!

Her visits to the dubs this fall will always be cherished among her most delightful memories. Our province was happy to have visits also from M.iss Onken and Mrs Smith from whom we gained much in national viewpoint.

Our two new dubs at Terre Haute, Indiana , and Flint. Michigan, under the able leadership of their presidents , have shown us what young dubs can accomplish.

The bC1ghtest spot on the horizon at present is that, this year, all fourteen dubs and six chapters have contributed to the Settlement School, the Eodowment Fund, and the Undergraduate Loan Fund. Contributions to every fund increased. The gifts of the clubs and chapters amounted to a $600.00 increase over last year.

Another spJendid record shows that every ques -

Itionnaire. audit report , and officer's list came in on time. It warms the heart to work with dubs that are so eagedy anxious to cooperate in all national policies and are so appreciative of any help given.

Both Michigan and Indiana held State Founders' Day luncheons . These affairs were miniature conventions as Pi Phis from all over the states attended by the hundreds.

The grading system which has been carried on previously has been continued A.nd now that the time has come to award the gavel, which is the reward for the ranking club, 1 wish I had a dozen gavels. Southwestern Indiana Club tops the list with Ann Arbor, Michigan , and several o ther clubs " !Uorung ned and neck."

As Delta Province Vice-President, I am deeply indebted for the friendships gained with my dub officers and members. To the members of Grand' Council who have so patiently helped me over the rough places, I wish to express my sincere thanks and gratitude. It has been a delight to work with such splendid women who give so much to ow Fraternity.

It has been a pJeasure to serve Pi Beta Phi. ELSA BA1lKER. EsKEW

EPSILON PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

T 15 WITH a great deal of pride that the Epsilon Province Vice·President reports of the dubs in the province this year. In almost every respect there has been a gain of some kind in every dub. Where there has been a small loss in one dub, it has been more than made up in another.

Each club and each chapter has contributed to the Undergraduate Loan Fund , to the Endowment and to the Settlement School. Two Mothers' Clubs. of Chattanooga and of St. Louis, gave to the Settlement School, and the Chattanooga Dub al so made a donation to the Loan Fund. With one club still unreported, Epsilon province has smt $1,472.92 to

the Settlement School this year, a gain of $::SO OO over last year. The dubs gave the same amount to the Loan Fund as they did last year, but the active chapters contributed $12.::S0 more, making the total for the province $106 .00. Thirty dollars more than hU'Jeac was sent by the dubs to the Endowment Fun

The real problem in this province is one of membership. There are too many Pi Phis who are not members of alumnz dubs. In spite of this condition, eight dubs together have fifteen more members this year than last. Chattanooga made the largest gain in membuship. This year they have

fifty-6vc pIJd members, compared with thirty-five Jast )'Qt. Thirty seniors paid alumnae which should help the situation in the future

Six dubs sold Arrow Craft products amountins to mote than .$600.00. The dub in Columbia. • town of about 1,,000. and with. membership of only 21. sold $200.00 worth of goods. That is • fine record , and shows what can Ix dooe.

001, onc dub WIU i.nactive in the magazine campaign this year. When the mid-year report was sent out by the Olairman of the Magaz ine Agency, three dubs had already sold a great many more magazines in six months than they had all last year. and onc dub had sold almost as many. The

dubs are rolizinS more and more the possibilities of the Magazine A8e?cy.. .

The Epsilon P rovince Vlcc Prcsldtnt has had remarkable co-opcratioo from tM dubs. All of tbc success should be credited to loyal dub officrrs workiog with an and dub mnnbc:rship. Not dUC,lOg her VISits the dubs which were made this ""lOter. and whIch were a rm pleasure and inspira.tion for the ",isitiog officer but during the entice yeat the assoc:iatioo bethe dub and the vice-president has been a 5OUt'CC of joy to her. It is a real privilege to do the work of the Epsilon PrO'Yince Vice-President KATHAIJNB ICmLEI. LYONS

ZETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

A S niB Grand Secretary visited Zeta Provi nce ..l"\.. this year, my cootaru: with the dubs were by correspondence only. In some cases I wished that that correspondence were less one-sided, but on the whole the response has hem very good. Particularly fine cooperation has been given by the clubs at De Land, Orlando, Lakeland, and At· lanta, all of which are well-organized, and contribute generously to all our national projects. Tampa, our youngest dub, also merits hooorable mention.

The Florida alumnte, who compose eight of our ten clubs, are to be congratulated on the fine wa, in wbich they planned and carried out their "first annual" state conference, held in Orlando during

May They were particula.rly fortunate in baring Miss Onken as their guest of honor. Her prrsence, of course, was largely responsible for the fact that every club and chapter in the state was well re» resented, and that aU report a renewed spirit of 10yaJty and enthusiasm. This, I am sure indicates that not year will bring progress and good fortune to Pi Beta Phi in Zeta Province.

It is with great regret that I relinquish my office. It bas given me a happy and mriching experience. I shall always cherish the friendships it has brought. and the opportunities to serve Pi Beta Phi.

Hll.DA BEGGS HENRY

ETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

A LTHOUGH I HAVE been Eta Province's Vice.l"\... President for only six month! _ I love the contacts with the clubs and the work It certain I, makes one realize that Pi Phi is important to all of us all of our lives The loyalty and cooperation of the Eta clubs is marvelous . Having been so new in the office. it was a bit difficuJt, at first. to grasp all of the duties, for which reason our dubs may have been retarded. Next yetr we hope to do better.

The financial report for this year is Dot quite up to that of last year. There is not, however, a great deficit, and I do feel as jf my period of acclimation is to blame f or what th ere is. Donations to Stttlement School amounted to '1.696.00 as compared to '1,981.47 for last year. Loan Fund received ,107 .00 as compared to '120 00_ '191.00 was sent to the Endowment Fund as compared to '192.00 last year.

There were twelve clubs which were 100% in donations to all projects namely : Champaign-Ur. bana. North, Chicago Business Women's, Oicago West, Chicago South, Decatur, Madison, Milwaukee, Monmouth, North Shore, Oak Park· River Forest, and Rockford. Eta Province is ex· tremely proud to know these dubs beloog to it All. but one active chapter, were 100%.

There has been a slight increase in memberships and Senior Dues. Eta Province has '92 paid mem· ben this year as compared to '87 last year; Senior dues for 74 girls instead of '6.

The magazine fund was wholeheartedly

ported, and '219 .2 0 was reati:r.ed from Eta Province. Decatur was credited with selling the :lith p:reatest number of magazines of all clubs Arrowaaft sales also seem to be increasing Many of the Eta clubs have found that guest teas at which Arrowaaft products are displayed are very remunerative

Et. Province h.d a conference at Evanston. III., over the of Founders' Day. Illinois Epsilon was the hostess chapter. It was the first time many of the Alumna! had been in direct contact with the active One report of it said. "We felt the whole conference was atremely inspirational. There however two outstanding remembrances ; first, graciousness, poise, and of Miss Onken in all situations; and second, the hi-.h caliber of the active girls. It seems to us as jf pj Phi has indeed chosen representative girls." Due to illness Eta Province's Vice-President was not able to attend this confermce, but from reports from variow clubs, all felt it was very worthwhile.

Eta Province's Vice·President wants to th ank Miss Onken, Mrs. Smith, Mrs . Wild, and Mrs . Stoolman for their help these past six months. If it were not for the continuous auidance of these officers and Mrs D S. Sutton, Eta Province's past Vice·President. I do n ot know how the work could have been accomplished. It has been a pleasure, indeed. to work with these loyal Pi Phis. May I also thank the clubs and chapters for their co-operation? It has meant a deal to me.

OoI.OTHY DENGBL

THETA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

TH ETA PROVINCB is this year on the Honor Roll, every dub having made a gift to each of th e fraternity's projects. We have tried to stimulate in· terest in the various philanthropies and have urged the dubs to divide tbeir gifts rather than support but one or two and we are gratified at the resuJts.

It WIl5 our pleasure during the fall to go to those clubs which had not been visited during the preeNing year. We found in each case, a generous welcome, gracious hosritality, and a most gratifying interest in the nationa fraternity as well as a desire to increase the local influence . There is also a grow· jog desire to be of aid to the local chapters when needed.

Moines, Indian o la, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, Winnipeg and Grand Forks were the clubs visited. We endeavored to take to each something of the inspiration which had come to us at Convention.

We have written each of our dubs every month, endeavoring to include in these letters items of general frat e rnity interests, bits of news from other dubs, timely suggestions to the officers and aids for programs and money raising plans. The r esponses to our letters have been gratifying and we believe the close contact thus maintained to be of value

To Sioux City go ou r orchids this year as they are 100% in membership. Indianola made the largest gain, having added fifteen which almost doubles their membership o f last year. The membership total for tbe year is ooe more than last year, 374

Our chart for the year will show that, of the seven chapters in the province, six sent gifts to the Settlement School, five to the Undergraduate Loan Fund, and to the Endowment Fund. One

Ichapter did not contribute to any of the national projects of the fraternity.

The chapters have done better ahout sending in their senior dues than formerly although all do not understand yet that these are required by the constitution_

The high spot for the year for the clubs in Iowa was Miss Onken's visit during April. She was able to contact each of the dubs in the state except Sioux City, which will have a Grand Council visitor next year_ The inspiration of the opportunity to know our Grand President is priceless. We profited by a one-day conference with Ruth Barrett Smith late in April, and she was able at the same time to meet some of the officers of the Ames dub as well as call at I owa' Gamma's house.

In many ways the year has been an im· provement over the one preceding. Eight dubs show an increase in membership. We have for the first tUne a 100% membership club. We are. also for the first time, 100% in gifts to the fraternity projects. The report s are also being sent more promptly.

But still we ate not satisfied . We should show a decided increase in membership for the whole province; our total gifts to the Settlement School should increase annually; our chapters should all support each national project and all reports should be on tUne.

It is a pleasure to work with groups which are increasing in interest and we thank the clubs and chapters for their co-operation.

Mu ch of the joy of this work comes from the delightful contacts with the Grand Council and other national officers. We appreciate this affijiation and also the opportunity to serve o ur fraternity. l..It.UR.A STORMS KN pp

IOTA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

OTA PROVINCE fetls it has been very fortunate this year in that every club has been visited by at least one national officer. To this fortuitous circumstance the Province Vice Preside nt attributes the fact that each club has show n improvement along some line of Pi Beta Phi endeavor. There has been an iDcrease in average attendance as well as in paid memberships. Several dubs have increased their gifts to the Settlement School and chapters, and given generously to other Pi Beta Phi projects as well, to say nothing of continued sup· port to worth·while local causes. A larger number of clubs have handled Settlement School products this year and there has been a very marked increase in the amount of magazine subscriptions.

Miss Onken visited the clubs in Nebraska and Kansas, with the exception of the Wichita Club. That they appreciated this contact with our Grand President, was attested by the fact that, without exception, they wrote to the Province Vice·President expressing their consciousness of the help and insptration she had brought to them. Mrs. Smith attended the Founders' Day celebration of the Wichita Dub, and a cordial letter from the club's president, Miss Wall, acknowledged the very great benefit they had derived from the meeting with her.

Early in February, Mrs. Alford visited the chapters and clubs of Wyoming and Colorado. Her charm of manner and broad understanding of fraternity affairs won f or her the confidence and respect of both actives and alumnz. Mrs. Stark aided Wyoming A and Colorado A very materially in their rushing last faU by attending their opening teas. Later, she attended the first fall meeting of the Denver AlumnI! Club where she discussed ways in which alumnz might best co-operate with the active chapters in rushing. She felt the alumnI! bave no right to attempt to coerce the active girls in their selection of pledges; for, after aU, it should be their privilege to determine the personnel of their chapters.

Iota Province is very proud of the fact that it has two 100% clubs. The Manhattan Club so qualifies because it has a 100% membership and has supported all major Pi Beta Phi projects, Cheyenne is also 100%. It has also aided Kansas B with money and in rushing. laramie lacks only a membership or two to qualify also as a 100% club. &th Clubs have shown tremendous improvement during the past year. Omaha, Topeka. and Denver also supported all Pi Beta Phi projects. Oleyenoe, Colorado Springs, Denver, Lawrence, Manhattan, Omaha,

Poudre Valley, PU<blo, wantie and Topeka all handled Arrowcraft products, and. while Boulder did not itself handle the products. it helped cado Alpha at its Settlement School ttl. hue worth of products sold.

Eve:ry dub in the province contributed to the SottI..".", SchooL

Iota PrO'Y.lnce Via-P[esident regrets that she hasn't complete data on Magazine subscriptions, but Iota Province Jed all provinces in this Pi Beta Phi project. 11om!D showt'd the greltcst gain in ma,pzine subscriptions, haviog sold ,161.8} worth, Wichita came s«ond with $1l7.45. Casper, Denver, Omaha and Manhattan also did espcci.Uy well. Wichita ranked third nationally.

Lincoln Jed in gifa to the active chapters with $12',00 and Omaha Ind Manhattan both JI;IVC generowly. Omaha also made a gift to the Fd· lowsbip Fund.

Among the active chapters. Colorado A Jed in gifts to the Settlement School with $100.00, Colorado B and Kansas B ame second with $'0.00 each, and Kansas A t;ave $47 00 to the Endowment.

Practically aU dubs report an increased average attendance and greater interest in club On

the whole, Pi Beta Phi bene6ts were very successful. Omaha did especiall, well in its presentation of Miss Beatrice Edmonds in a group of play-readings. Laramie Wichita, and Denver put on successful fasbion 'shows and nen er"s theater bene6t each summer at Elitch Gardens is always successful

Iota froyince Vice-President feels that the progttSS made by her dubs dwing the put year u indicative of a broader national outlook and a dearer understanding of the for an efficimt dub. Their incrnsioS; spirit of co-operation with ber and with the natlcoal offiCttS of the make each year's work with them a greater pleasure.

Iota Province Vice·President wishes to thank especially, Miss Onken, Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Alford, and Mrs. Stark for their active assistance in her Province worlc; for their comprehensive nndttstand inA of Province needs and and for their splendid letters of interest and encourJAement throughout the year She wishes 81so to thank Wild, Mrs. Stool man. and Mrs. Purdunn as well as other national and province officers for their generous assistance at .11 times.

MALUS CoLLINS

KAPPA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

ANOTH Eft milestone in the history of the fn.terL'"'-. nity has been passed and the progress made during that period by the alumnae clubs has been most noticeable. As we Alance at the roults of the year's work, there is C'YidCDce of • decided increase in interest, a luger attendance at the mtttings; the most gratifying of all, is the increase in membership in the province .AJI but five dubs show this growth, and the New Ocle-ans .Alumme club is to be congratuJated upon ga.ining the most members during the year. There are two cluDs in the province which are 100% in membership; Corpw Christi. Tens, and Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Corpw Christi has en· rolled every Pi Phi in the city and some in the nearby towns, and Okmulgee has been 100% foe several years.

It bad been hoped that the province wouJd be 100% in donations and twelve clubs have dODe their part, but even if the province cannot claim that honor, the clubs have done splendidly in remembering the various funds. Approximately $382 has been sent to the Endowment Fund, and $131 to the Loan Fund. The active chapters are fund. minded too, fow out of the six are 100%. Texas A. sent $'0 to the Settlement School and $100 to the Endowment Fund Arkansas A and Texas Beach sent $'0 to the Endowment Fund. Louisiana A sent ", to the Settlement School. The chapters are 100% in donations to the Endowment Fund.

The Settlement School has, as always, reaped the harvest. The clubs have bent every effort to 6ive their best assistance to this one "pride and lOy of OutS." There lIe sneral dubs which should be given special mention for their generous ron· tributions; Austin sent $10' to the school, Dallas, $209.16; Sabine District, $93.79; and Ft. Worth. a new club, sent "0.80. These clubs a.re surely among the best contributors that the school bas. The total contribution from the province is $978.24. The Tyler aJurnnr dub, which is not

affiliated with the national sent $3'.90 to the Settlement School. This was the result of a recent sale of the products from Gatlin· burg, and they Ire justly p.roud of their efforts. They lte a splendid group and Vlould add much to ow province, should they decide to come into the organizatioo. There u a promise from them to discuss this point and make their decision by the time fin activities Other groups have been written to on this same subject, but as yet notbing has resulted.

&veral dubs of the province had the pleasure of a visit from Mrs. Smith. Grand Vice-President, dwing the month of May She met with Oklahoma City, Norman, Ft. Worth, and Stillwater. These dubs were fortunate indeed to have had this contact, and it is hoped that she wilt return soon and visit with the other groups of the orovince. It is most inspiring to have ou.r Grand Council offittn visit us and give us the bene6t of their wide experience and vast store of knowledge

The visits to the clubs we.re made during the late winter, and wiU a.tways stand out as the most intesting feature of the year's work. The leaving of old friends each day a.nd making new ones did not mar the interest Ind enthusiasm, for the clubs wetc filled with plans--all for the same endcreating interest for the members. working for the various projects of the fraternity There were found plans for Settlement School exhibits. bridge teas. fashion shows, and numerous othe r ways of swelling the coffers of the dub. The new clubs, Ft. Worth and Corpus Christi, a.re most enthusiastic in their plans. They began the vear's work with exhibits and were most successful in their results. There is a new club in the province: San Antonio sent in their application in April and wiIJ begin their activities In the f.ll. We shall hear from 881.in, I am sure.

There is a feeling of optimism throughout the

THE SEPTEMBER ARROW

province, due. in a way, to the echoes of the CODvention of last the inspiration and fine work done there has been given to the dubs by the splendid articles in the Anow and the monthly letters sent out, by the Province Vice -President. These have attempted to give a vivid picture of the work done, good times had, and to urge those who did not go to that convention, to plan to attend the nen one.

I t has been a pleasure to serve the Fraternity and what progress bas been made, is due to the

Wco-operation of the splendid women who have given their time and enthusiasm to the furtherance of the plans of the fraternity . They have been most eager to carry On the wishes of the organization and that willingness is most appr«iated. The officers and committee members who have assisted in the advancement of the work must also realize that without this aid little could have accom. plished; they too, receive the sincere thanks of the Kappa Province Vice-President.

CARRlE WJLLlAMSON

LAMBDA PROVINCE VICE-PRESIDENT

rTH Com'ention just. year past, Lambda Province could Dot but feel the continued influence o f aroused enthusiasm , best show n in the increased membership and in the upholding of last year's perfect record of 100% contributions to all national projects by every dub and chapter in the province. A wonderful spirit of co-operation and helpfulness is evidenl everywhere. Another great inspiration has come from the visits of our Grand Vice-President , Ruth Barrett Smith , who contacted all clubs but two and every chapter in the province It is always a happy yeat when one of our Grand officers is included in our programs. Additional privileges were afforded the Calgarv and Edmonton dubs by the visits of our Province President, Lilian MacLeod Rusch. who graciously gave of her time on her trip to Alberta A

Each year our number of resident alumnz increases as we graduate more seniors and new people move to our great Northwest. The total shows 72' Pi Phis-iust an even hundred more than we had in 1934 This means richer fields for our membership chairmen another year. Oubs increasing in membership are Boise. Calgary, EU}feJle, Portland, Salem , and Seattle. Calgary and Corval Lis have 100 % paid membership. while Edmonton lacks but one. Three of our active chapters do not have the support of aJumnz clubs. but their loyal advisory members have shown their faith in Pi Phi by paying national dues, thereby swelling our total memliership to 290. Forty·three seniors were graduated to become members of dubs next year.

By workjng, sacrificing , scheming, and planning, each dub and chapter has made it possible to contribute to the Settlement School. loan Fund. and Endowment Fund besides conductinA' Arrowc:raft sales and helping with local charities The total increase for the Settlement School amounts to '74.75 , again bein.R' the highest donor. Yakima, Edmonton, Portland Seattle, and Washington Alpha increased their gifts appreciably. Special commendation is due Washin'tton Alpha for efforts toward national worle:. Some dubs and chapters tried Arrowaaft sales for the first time with conside:rable satisfaction and financial success. Lambda Provine:e did not have much put in the marvel ous success of the Magazine nationally although the matter was stressed fr om the beginning of the year and reports were sent out to

chairmen and treasuren. Calgary deserves special credit for leading the province, since this was the first time they had tried it and the club is small.

The Loan Fund shows an increase, and we have been able to coIJect on old past-due loa n s. Owing to the fact that there was no special stress put on the Endowment Fund, it has fallen slightly below last year's ligures. Portland, Alberta A, Washington A , and Oregon A were most generous to the Endowment Clubs have helped their nearby chapters by giving money and gifts, and by entertaini ng and assisting with rushing.

Yearbooks show a t.rr:od to cut down expenses , but the contents and programs show no curtailment of activities. Effort has been made to reach busy people in all professions and to appm to their diff erent interests Seattle and Portland have presented Beatrice Edmonds, California ..,. dramatic reader, with o utstanding success. Salem is introducing book reviews next ytar, and Boise business girls meet regularly for luncheon in addition to the monthly meetings. Founders' Day was celebrated wherever possible by joining groups and chapters. Seattle again held its traditional banquet with our own Mrs Soule as guest of honor. Portland had a lovely banquet, while other Oregon Pi Phis accepted the invitation to participate with Corvallis. Spokane attracted many nearhy Pi Phis, and Washington B was hostess to Idaho AJpha and her alumnile at a Sunday morning breakfast. Pi Phis in Caruda came long distances to attend their homecoming Founders' nay celebration. Fannie Whitenade Libbey Club at Yakima made their celebra. tion a costume party and sent their customary wire to our Founder Mrs libbey-a former member and intimate friend.

As the year closes, your province vice-president views it with pride and regret for it abo marks the o f her work: for Pi Phi in Lambda Province. September will find her and her family in their new home al Fort WacUworth, Staten Island, New York City. As she looks out upon the ships of New York Harbor, she will look bade: upon the many happy experiences and good friends far out on the Paci6c Coast. It has been a rich experience serving Pi Phi and knowing her leaders -an opportunity and privilege for which she is very grateful

AJthough, the amounts of monq sent to the vuious funds have not as large as last ycar, there has been a decided iouease in the number of donations, which proves there is no interest JackinS. hut an increased concentrated effort as a whole to support the projKts of our national

Fraternity. all, that should be our ultimate aim, to have every member of Pi Beta Phi do ba share in maintaining the place Pi Beta Phi today holds in the realm of national I ntemitics-

] wish to thank the Fraternity for this opportunity I have bad in the Last year-to gain • deeper insight into the fine orga.o.i.utioD of our national fratrmity, and to have my heart touched still a little deeper with that intangible thing we call fntemjty spirit. I cannot help but know, that could you alJ Pi Beta Phi. as 1 have, you would all be better Pi Phis for it!

May 1 thank Mu Province for your past cooperation with a food hope for your future!

ETHBL LUNSFOIlD FROST

Dr_ Fox, of Unioo ColJege said: "It would be inhuman foJly to throw over an institution with millions of members and seventy-five millions worth of property, simply because the undergraduates of. few colleges felt no need for it in its present form. We need calmly to assess the human worth of lratemiti6 in fundammtal values before we consider anywhere their abandonmentl and if abandoned in the special circumstances of one place it does not follow at aU that genera! abandonment is a good policy. Most college executives realize that the fraternities have high potentialities of excellence jf they and the college work together. The fruitful course is clearly to mark these possible excellencies and en· courage them ratbtt than worry about defKts."

" j am not certain that things have changed. In the panic year when Hannibal 's army crossed the Alps, a wise old Roman his son: 'Be not AHmed by the temporary shifts of fortune's wind. Be certain that your undertakings are based upon the solid rock of proven worth. In a world of change, ding to that which endures,'-If a wholesome companionship, centered around the highest ideals of the human race is the heart of the fraternity, aU else is secondary. A college president, responding to the question of how his college was meeting the changed times, said that the fundamentals of real eduation have not changed, and that his coUege tries to teach its students these fundammtals to make them ready to meet life after they have finished their college course." Florence Hunt Webster

The Dean at the U. of Pennsylvania was asked by a newly elected chapter president how to his chapter med the new order of things and he answered by giving what he considers the four charactenstia most neuled by present day coUege students-.bonesty in actinB and thinking. courage, reverence and loyalty taken as one, and social mindedness.

An underAnduate Pi Phi r«cotly said that in these times the greatest need is to have a feeling of self assurance and that this assurance is given (to girls who lack it when they enttt coUese) to more girls by their fraternity membership than in any other way.
