The Arrow of Pi Beta Phi-Summer-1957 by Pi Beta Phi

Jh e J/i gher m eaning 0 / FRATERNITY

By Dr. Walt.r R. Courte nay , 4> a 0, Lawrence ' 29 Pallor Finl Presbyterian Church, Nashville , T tllneJIee

THE WORD fraternity is a very old word, being part of every civilization that the world has known. It is an international word, used by all nations and all races It is a classless word, having its place among employers and workers, the rich and the poor , the honest and the dishonest, the law . abiding and the lawless .

The word 's meaning is clear. To be fraternal is to be brotherly, and so it follows that a fraternity is an organization of men which seeks to promote friendship and welfare among its members

The world has known many fraternal groups . The nation is one, the tribe is another, the clans within the tribe still another, and within the clans the families, the last being the original and basic fraternal group Each of these goes by a name, and each has a motto that seeks to express purpose, but all are bound by a motto that is older than Shakespeare and Dumas, "all for one, and one for all." It is this spirit of unity and loyalty that gives body to every fraternal organization, be it nation, church, school, lodge, family or collegiate fraternity

The period between 1840 and 1870 saw most of the great collegiate fraternities come into being. They were born out of idealism and a desire to emphasize the higher concepts of self and society . They were not calJed into existence to be a dormitory and eating club {or playboys They were not created for the transient values of isolated group life Their end was the creating of better men, men rich in the aptitudes of brotherliness , friendship, helpfulness, scholastic attainments, and moral character . [t was felt that such groups, imbued with a larger purpose for living , would Ix a real asset to both members and the campus as a whole

As I have known fraternities and fraternal group s, I am consc ious of the ease with which they slip from the ideal to the common Their original usefulness ends in misuse, and their primary purpose for existen ce is glossed over and lost. Created to serve the high they too often serve only the low, retaining a certain amount of respectability long after they have ceased to merit praise As with all organized groups, SO with fraternities ; they live either on the level of God 's revelation, on the level of man's best achievements, on the level of the so-called average man, or on the low, the mediocre, the cheap and sordid .

Building costs have doubled since 1945, living room furniture h as gone up 13 3% since 1940, dinnerware has more than d oubled , and appliances have gone up nearly 90% Furniture p rice s are expected to cont inue to rise three to five per cent this year, and household appliances will go u p another one and one half to three per ce nt. Building costs, too, show no sign of being checked. These figures are from the Na· tional Board of Fire Underwriters.

In view of the abov e facts , each chapte r shou ld seek a modern appraisal of the h ouse from a competent appraiser, a local builder or an architect. If costs a re up on both sides, so are values.

A committee should make a complete room by room inventory of the house to li st all furnishings, contents and equipment, in order to arrive at the insurable values. The treasurer, the adviso r, and the finance comm ittee should meet with the insurance agent to di scuss raising the insurance coverage to meet increased values.

Alabama Pol ytechni c In stitute, better known simp ly as Auburn , is loca ted in A uburn, Alabama , which is firty-nine mi les east of Montgomery, the capital of Al abama. Auburn , the love li est village of the plains, was founded as a lan dg rant co llege in 1857. It was made co -educational in 1892. Since that date a superb schoo l o f Home Economics has been estab li shed. O t h er exce llent schools at Auburn are the schoo l s of En g in eeri ng, Art, Business Administration , an d Science and l ite rature . The campus of Auburn is q ui te bea utiful. In memorial to th e cente nni al annive rsary a poo l was built in Ross a pa rk in front of Ross Olemica l Bui l ding.

EW PI PHI COOK BooK FEATURES SMOKY MOUNTAIN SECTION

+ THE SMOKY MO UNTAIN section will be an interesting feature in the new Pi Beta Phi Cook Book whi ch will be available through the Arrow· craft Shop this summer. In addition to the recipes requested from the 270 alumna: clubs and official fraternity family , the Smoky Mountain chapter will have contributions from the Settlement School staff, Pi Phi weavers and native craftsmen who sell their handc rafts to Arro wcraft plus tempting dishes from long·time Gatlinburg friends 0 the Settlement Schoo l. When asked to tell something about the recipes and the people who contributed them, M a r · ion Mueller, Director of Settlement Schoo l , sent the following comments .

PA ST AND R EPAST!

OUf Smoky Mountain chapter in our new Pi Beta Phi Cook Book is not one [or the calorie-conscious. Traditionally, the Smokies are a land of superlatives, the recipes being no exception. Rec ipes have been submitted for thi s chapter from all walks of lifeby natives as well as those w ho have adopted this land of high ho r izon s.

By necessity the old folk s' diet was a simple one , made from sources at hand. Spi cewood tea , poke 'sa ll et', pumpkin butter, sweet 'pe rtater ' butter, wi ld g rape prese r ves, su l phur-steamed app les, gooseberry pot pie are a few of the 'o le' memories. Not -too-old fo lks r emember drying beans, p umpki n , f ru it, and beef. 'Soghrun lasses boi l in' is an annua l event in these mod ern times.

A recipe for Blackbe rry Dumpl ings was sub· mitted by Mrs. Elmer K ear, wife of t h e A rr owcraft broom make r for over twenty-five years. C h ristmas 1956 Mr. Kear sent a handmade cane of h is de· sign and two of his brooms to President Eisen howe r . He proudly showed me the t h ank·you note signed by Dwight D. Eisenh o wer.

Biscuits are a 'must' for young and old. One teenage girl recently said she liked at least five biscuits with gravy and two more with jelly for breakfast. A favorite lunch might be soup beans, a chunk of onion, cornpone, and a glass of buttermilk Plain ole cabbage with a hunk of meat is still a favorite, A few old·timers enjoy a good possum dinner with sweet 'pertaters' and perhaps Stack Pie. Mary L Ownby , one of our first weavers at Arrowcraft whose lovely stoles are worn by many Pi Phis , gave us the

recipe for this dessert which still finds its way to the tab le fo r young and old. Nellie Cook, one of t h e Arrowcraft girls, has sent a Sweet Potato Pudding.

Teen-age rs like to h unt as muc h as g randfat h e r . Recent ly I h eard an impressive conve rsation by a teen.age girl and boy on t h e best way to kill a bear (bea r hun ting is rest r icted, of course!). Squirrel and rabbit h unting are popu lar, too.

Mrs . O el ie Watson (you all know O el ie and hi s wife J osie w h o wove for Arrowcraft ove r twentyfive yea rs) says Orlie's favo rite pick le is delicious with any kind of meat. Wanda Og le Watson , wife of Nea l about whom you read in the last ARROW, makes one of Neal's choice dishes, an o ld fas h ioned apple re l ish whi c h is served instead of salad. The wife of Car l H u skey, our woodcraft instructor w h o also makes the wooden bowls and luggage racks for Arrowcraft, tells us h ow th ey used to make spicewood tea and sweeten with pumpkin syrup. Edna Cook, remembered from the Miami Bea ch Convention, includes a favorite.

To realIy see the area, one must climb M t. Le Conte. After this accomplishment, Mrs .· Jack Huff (Pauline Whaling, Illinois Alpha) will serve I.e (Continued on page 23j)

>- ARE You interested in crafts? Well, what are you planning to do this summer? It wo uld be worth yow while to give co nside ration to the Pi Beta Phi ·University of Tennessee Summer Craft Workshop at the Pi Beta Phi Settlement School in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, June 10 to July 13 .

W o rksh op is planned for th ose who want to learn just (or fun as well as for those who must learn to make a livelihood , earn college c redit , or ass ist in mental or physi cal re-.habilitation.

Quotes fr om Pi Ph is:

" Workshop was all I could ask it to be We learned to kn o w our teachers, each an excellent c raftsman in hi s own eight , not only in classe s, but also as friends ."

"The e nthus iasm and interest everyone had in her work was an inspiration and challenge to me . There was a warm , friendly , informal atmosphere in the school. Our field trips to the workshops in the area and to the homes of the mo untain people where Arrowc raft products are made, gave me a better understanding and appreciation of the altruis· tic work of our fraternity . My Tennessee summer was on e of the finest vacations. It offered me a chance to see another beautiful section of our coun· try, at the same time g iving me a chance to work at crafts with interesting girls and women from other parts of the country and foreign count ries ."

If you are interested write fo r a bulletin to Summer Craft W o rkshop, Pi Beta Phi ·University of T e nn essee, Gatlinburg, Tenn essee.

Heritage of the Past Is the Seed That Brings Forth the Harvest of ,·he Future

FROM

Ed i ted by Mary Elizabeth Lasher Barne"e , Oh io A

WALKER, Kappy Oliver, Henry Holt and Company, 256 pp.

The category of literature written specifically for the young teens is a neglected one, understandably so, for the latter is an audience hard to please and perhaps harder to underst and, one which blends the child and the adult in a co nstantly varying mixture. Hen ce it signifies a measure of courage that Mrs Walker chose to beam her first novel to this 1 2 to 16 age group. and the measure of h er success in the effort is to be found in decidedly favorable reviews as in the New Yo,.k TimeJ which used such words as, "new twists, amusing characte rs , crisp dialogue, authentic Southern Aavor/' and "ag reea · ble comedy."

While the underlying theme, the befo re·and· afte r transformation id ea, is not new. it is always intriguing, and Mrs . W a lker has put it in up-to.date dress with an assist from modern psycho logy. There's also a good hel ping of common sense and a dash of Cinderella in the book to make it both wholesome from the standpoi nt of the examples it sets, and romantic in its appeal to the youthful reader.

When Kappy O liver from Philadelphia undertakes to convert her belligerently unattractive cousi n Till from a "take me as I am, o r else" attitude toward nearly everyone, there is wide scope for her ingenuity and ample opportunity for the humorous situation of whi ch Mrs . Walker makes so much. The g irl s meet for the first time when both are sent by their families to spend several months in the Yancy City, North Carolina, home of their mutual cousin Bessie Plum, and both find it the broadening experience attractive Kappy anticipated when she started her journey South, though neither expected the number and variety of surprises which resulted . Anyone who has known a Till, and that takes in virtually everyone, and has thought, "if on l y I could get my hands on that girl just once," is fair game for this book. Since even those persons of exceptionally high calibre abstract intelli ge nce cannot live or work in a vacuum, it follows that social intelligence is every bit as important to the well integrated person. "Kappy Oliver" makes this point wit hout moralizing, and the result is good entertainment which contributes wisely to one 's sociaJ intelligence.

AUTHOR INTEREST: The mother of a teenage. daughter and son, MONA (Mrs Claibourne W.) \VALKER , Penna. Beta, found source material for her book walking right into her own home, and • Winone Ballingor Walhr (Mrs . Claibourne W . )

she writes that this first book "was such fun to do and so satisfying in other ways that I am now working on another." Prior to this the Bucknell graduate has had short stories published, but this is her first book.

FLORENCE MARIE TAYLOR , Night of 5 m. PoemI, privately published.

A specialist in verbal painting, Miss Taylor has ga thered into this h ard-bound volume poems which have been published in numerous magazines and newspapers. In addition to enjoying its literary va lue, Pi Phis, who buy the two dollar book, will have the satisfaction of knowing that twenty-five cents of each sale to or by a Pi Phi will go to the Indian apolis Alumn", Club.

Typical of her work is "The Garden of Peace" which describes a house deserted in a garden choked with weeds and then compares:

Mona Wolh" P.nn.ylvonlo B

.. And there are many places in the world

Where blossoms of freedom, faith and truth decrease

As words of hate and violence a re hurled , And wars go on, and on, and never cease. If freedom's banner is to h ang unfurled

There must be spade work in the ga rd en of peace,"

Conte Lodge pancakes, at least ten of 'em, with sausages, eggs and all the coffee you can drink. No , not too much after that five-mile hike !

Our own cook at Settlement School, Mrs. Lela Adams, treasures her very old recipe for Tennessee Cake, prize cake, of course, to c1aim the name of the state. One could not mention favorite reci pes without including Country Fried Ham and Red-eye Gravy, perhaps a first choice for many . Biscuits and sourwood honey should be added in the same breath !

Recipes from the adopted Smoky Mountain folks are enticing. Tina M cMorr an, our Arrowcraft des igne r, submits her favorite recipe for Chop Suey and Almond Roca. Marjorie Chalmers, our nurse of twenty-one years, contributes some tempting favorites. E l izabeth Rue, manager of Arrowcraft, recommends a very specia l formu la for cooki ng pork chops-a treat, she promises. The Plum Pudding is a holid ay favorite of Marion Muell er. Edna M cCutchan has managed our shop in the Mountain View Hot el for many years. Her recipes evidence a

lo ve for cookery. Henri etta McCutchan Huff is a Missouri Beta who came h ere to teach, but with her marriage to Jim Huff, decided to become one of the adopted. Lillian Hansen H owe ll (Kansas A l pha) contributes some, too. lillian served as assistant to the Directo r of Settlement School for two years and is now practicing her c ulinary art in he r own h ome. Lena Hodgen served as housekeeper at Settlement School for over ten years, but she was capa ble of taking over the duties of cook when necessa ry. Several of h e r specialties d ese rve consider· ation. The Ham Loaf is tasty; I've tried it! This is offered by Marian Heard who has directed our Workshop for eleven years. University of Tennessee Dean Jess Harris ' recipe for Hush Puppies is delicious served with fish. Fish! We have not mentioned fish Almost everyone loves to fish - young and old.

Are you hun g ry? Can you smell the mountain air? Yes , do 'cum' to the Smokies a nd we will do some eatin'! At le ast buy one of the new cook books.

:lire Centennial JunJ .

HAVE YOU CONTR IBU TED TO IT ?

THE YEAR 1967 will mark the centennial of the founding of our fraternity. There were twelve fo unders of Pi Beta Phi and each year, including the centennial year, we will honor One of that g roup. In 1955, the recipient , Emma Brownlee Kilsore, our first fraternity president was honored

Why are we doing this ? At co nventio n in Miam i Beach, July 19) 4, it was decided to raise a Ce ntennial Fund for a philanthropic cause with wh ic h to celebrate this event The specific purpose for which this mon ey is to be used will be decided upon at the 1966 Convention. It was felt that what might be selected now might not be o f real need that many years hence. For example the progress in the medical field would alter the need s-s u ch as developments in polio research , yet the moni es to finance such a project would need to be raised over a period of years for an ade · quate amount.

A Centennial Fund Committee has been selected from Alumnre Clubs to promote this project, and we are suggesting that each member co ntribu te something each year, o ne dollar if possib le, and that rC<juest be issued to you probably on Founders ' Day . The co mmittee members listed on the attached sheet with their cor responding areas, rotate on a two to six year participation basis. They will be pleased to hear fr om you.

Primarily, this project is for individual Pi Phi participation and should not effect club contribu · tions to othe r fraternity proj ects We not only want your finan cial support but ve rb al suggestions are welcomed from alumn", and actives as well, for the type of project yo u think most needed We want every Pi Phi to feel that she has had a part in the formulation of this philanthropi c cause. Su ch suggestions should be sent to your particular area committee member, and will be recorded in survey form to pass along as the basis for a final decision

We believe thi s is a project th at can really unite all Pi Phis in an e nthusiasti c accomplishment of which they ca n be proud . Th e fact that Pi Beta Phi is planning" great philanthropi c adventure, the li ke of which no ot h er frat e rnity g roup h as acco mplished so far, should make every alumna proud to do her best toward its success.

You h ave h eard of dollar-a -year men in Washington. The Centennial Fund Committee would like t o make you a dollar.a year woman for Pi Phi Contribute through your alumnre club or co mmitt ee treasurer

Our fali Arr ow cuft Sa les a wooderful means of geu ing the wh o le dub to work together and of slslting the year olf with. burs t of sctivity, Every member has her job and bility whetbe r big or small Tbe jobs tJ.08e from being chaltmJ.n of the whole sho down to brin, ing frieods to the sale, We han a tea .nd allO a bake sale " part of ou r afternoon IIle. We scheduled our second sale in the evening in o rder to reach more working people and mothen witb ,oung children, This pro"ed very successful. So, while we worked for the benefit of our billest philanthrop" we really benefited most ourselves.

The lun chC'Jn between Christmas and New YClrs for the acti ves is always so e ye ope ner. The alumnz enjoy hearing news of the act ives first hand. It is rewardilll to see the interest about the club that the actives show, Most kn o w little or nothini abo ut our clubs. This is • part of Pi Bets Fhi that they are happy to find really exists.
