The deadliest en e mies of nations are not their foreign foes; they always dwell within their borders And from these internal enemies civilization is always in need of being saved. The nation blessed above all nations is she in whom the civic genius of the people does the sa ving day by day, by acts without external picturesqueness; by speaking, writing, voting reasonably ; by smiting corruption swiftly; by good temper between parties; and by the people knowing true men when they see them , and preferring them as leaders to rabid partisans or empty quacks

EDITORIALS

Convention

In this issue we repeat the blanks necessary for Convention registration with some revisions made by the Convention Guide Please get your reservations in early.

And now, jf you are coming to Swampscott, especially if you are to be a delegate, there is h orne work for you to do

There are two phases of the l ife of those busy, precious days at Convention, work and play. The play times will come naturally, and you have on ly to fall in with the fine plans being made for you by the Committee, when you meet those hundr eds of wonderful Pi Beta Phis and enter into their l ives for that brief time; the work-that is something to be prepared for How ? First by studying the In formation Arrow for several years past; second by studying the Constitution of the Fraternity, so that you may be prepared to act on changes that will be recommend ed for your consideration. We must be well informed and alert in our thinking and planning for the future development of Pi Beta Phi. Convention must act with decision and wisdom if the present attacks on the fraternity system are to be met and counte red.

The role of alumna! in Convention de liberations is an important one Theirs is the responsibi lity of planning and legislating for the interests of alumna! in the strictly alumna! meetings-and besides they may vote to recommend legislation to the general sessions. Remember the privilege of speaking on the floor belongs to all members present, but the voting privi lege is limited to accredited d elegates . Come prepared-which means coming with full know ledge of the Fraternity. Besides have a good t.me and be h appy!

Correction-in editorials for the Spring issue the dates for Convention were incorrectly given-they arc June 22 to June 28.

Of Responsibility

We quote the following from an editorial by Dr. George Starr Lasher in the Rall/e of Thela Chi:

For the first time in history fraternities and sororities through th eir respective organizations, the National Inter fraternity Conference and the National PanhelJeni c Conference, are comi ng to grips with the problem which has been thr eateni ng their potency, if not their very existence: whether they have the right that is granted every o ther club, society, civic organization, and general fraternity, such as the Ma sons and Elks , in this cou ntry to determine their own sta ndards for memberShip without interferen ce from any source. Both collegiate o rga ni zatio ns at their recent mtttings took. a forthright position in asserting thei r constitutional right and in making clear that there is a distinct difference between an individual's civil rights and his social privileges. Aroused to action , they ale calling upon all Greeks to appreciate the fact that their inherent rights are being threatened on too many campuses and that they should participate in a campaign that will educate the public to that situation.

It is necessary to make clear to those inexperienced with frat e rnities that a local fraternity is responsible for its own standards, but when it becomes part of a nat iona l fraternity it must agree to follow the standards set up through demo.. cratic procedures at national conventi o ns, just the same as units of any nat ional o rga nizati on are governed by the constitutions and regu lations passed by convention legi s lation A chapter , of course, has the right to advocate a change in the constitution, and the c hange is made if it ca n get enough c hapters to agree to it. Any c hapter can, of course, withdraw from the national fraternity if it sees fit and become a local, but as long as it remains in the fraternity it is naturally bound by the laws and traditions of that fraternity Otherwise, the national fraternity would be a national fraternity in name only.

It is equally essential to make clear that an individual is initiated by a chapte r into the nati o n al fratern ity, not merely i nto the chapter, and he should be acceptable to the entire fraternity, for membership means that he is to be welcomed by any chapter on any campus and by any alumni chapter or association of the fraternity wherever he may be. Otherwise, there is no meaning to the idea of a national collegiate brotherhood.

The selection of its future members is perhaps the g ravest respo nsibility any chapter faces, not only becau se of its ow n family relationship with the individual, whi ch involves, of course, his parents, brothers, sisters. and even other 233

relativ es. but because the individual will carry his fraternity identity in his visits to othe r campuses and in his contacts with other co ll ege acquai ntances throug hout his life as a n alum nu s. so much of the welfare of the loca l chapter and its national fralt'rnity depends t!pc n the selection o[ IIlCJ ll bers, {lICIt: must be no interference an the determination of sta ndards that each fraternity sets up Both the National In ter. fraternity Conference and the Natio nal Panhelleni c Confere nce are right i n insisting tha t their member units s hall Ix (ree from suc h inte rfere nce.

The N ew Ocean Hou se, onc of the best known resort hote ls on the eaSlern seaboard, is located directly on the ocean at Swampscott, a picturesque section of the North Shore of Massachusetts. Town records reveal that there has been a hot e l of one size o r another on the present site for many years, even as far back as the stage coach days. The present New Ocean H ouse came into existence in 190 2 and the new addition, called Puritan Hall , in 1924.

In 1925 Calvin Coolidge established the Summer White Hou se in Swampscott, and the New Ocean Hou se was designated as headquarters for hi s official staff. Th e hotel ha s also been used on other important occasions by the Wh ite Hou se.

Wh en Franklin D. Roo seve lt and Winston Churchiil met at sea in 194 1 for the signing of lhe Atlanti c Charter, the New Ocea n House acquired further prominence as the base of ope ratio ns for the accompanying staff. Earlier , in 1938, the hotel was the headquarters for White H o use staff and a large co rps of press co rrespo ndents on the occasio n of the Anne Clark-John Rooseve lt wedding which took place at nearby Nahant.

Colonel Kennedy's first association with the New Ocean Hou e occu rred when he secu red a summer position there whil e still a stud ent at Harvard College. After working two summer seasons at the hote l , he return ed for a visit as a guest. A t the height of the season, one of the members of the staff became ill, a nd the then owner of the N ew Ocean Hou se asked Co lone l K ennedy if he would assist by taking ove r some of the duties. A position whi ch sta rted as an accommodation to a friend, la id the foundation for a caree r in the hotel business. Colonel Kennedy has been with the hote l ever since. In 1925, he became president of th e Company and principal stockho ld er. Hi s entire business ca reer has been devoted to the New Ocean H ouse and its thousands of guests.

Edited by Mary Elizabeth Lasher BarneHe , Oh i o A

CLAIRE FI SHER AOLER , Ph D., M odem Geometry, An In tegrated First Course, The M cG raw -Hill Book Company, Inc.

Even to the m os t non·scientific of minds, it is plain to see that Dr. Adler's new textbook picked the right moment in time to be published and that it shou ld be much in demand by the up-coming scientists, themselves needed so mu ch by tne world.

The publishers explain t h at the book bridges the gap between Euclidean and the modern abstract theo ri es, and that it is designed for two particular groups of students : prospective seco ndary sch ool teachers, and mathematics majors , prepa ring for work in the scientific field.

Among those who shou ld know the book h as been receiving high praise. For example, Professor Struik of M LT., wrote: "The re is pleasure in the thought that in a period when ' La haute geometrie' is somewhat neglected in the U S.A., there are sti ll good texts being published "

The assistant dean of the City Co ll ege of New York , Professor B a r ber, praised Dr. Adler's wo rk in th ese words: "You have done a wonderful job in selecting material especia lly for the training of prospective teachers; thI S is an area which certainly has been terribly neglected."

AUTHOR INTEREST: As associate professor of mathematics at New York University Dr. C laire Fis h er Adler has achieved stature in a field still unusual for women, and " Modern Geometry " is by no means her first book on t h e su bj ect of mathe · matics. She is a charter member of West Virginia A.

RA NDOM NOTES: Novelist and sh ort sto ry writer Katherine Anne Porter is the autho r of a forth com ing novel "Ship of Fools," something well worth watching for. She was represented last October 13 in the N etu Y ork Times Book Review with a skillfully and tastefu ll y handled review of the controversial book "Leftover Life to Kill ," by Caitl in Th omas, widow of the poet Dylan Thomas Another book in the works is "The Prophet Isaiah" being writte n by Hazel Mallory Beattie , Oklahoma A, w h ose prior elfort " The Making of the Old and New Testaments ," wo n critica l acclaim from Protestan t ministers.

ALICE TROXE LL MCCOUN, Lim;tleII Stlpply alld Other PoemI, The Woodson Press, 38 pp.

In common with many other readers this reviewer tend s to react to poetry more with emotions than with intellect, much as one mi g ht listen to a symphony. Consequently an attempt at co nventional criticism , based as it would h ave to be on such per · sona l responses, would be unfair both to the author and to potentia l readers.

We, h owever, found great charm and appeal in the im age ry of " Arabesque," which we chose to 9llote in demonstration of Ali ce M cCoun's ta l ents:

"Just a gray little sparrow that hopped in th e snow; First this way-then that way-t hen row upon row, He kept addi ng new marks as he cove red the space, Til they made altogether, most beautiful lace.

Now I wonder if we, with as unconscious ease, Can leave traces of love half as tender as these ."

This is Mrs. McCoun's second vo lume of verse, and as in t h e first t h ere is a preponde rance of r e· ligious themes, the majority of the poems having appeared fi rst in C h r istian Science pub li ca tions.

"What a blessing are these black top co untry roads. Don't talk to me about the good old days. How did we ever get places-up to Big Rid ge. for instan ce. We str add led the foot.deep ruts, inched across the corner of Pink 's beanJatch, crept down a shale hill between the creek an a stake-and- rider fence, and climbed the steep slope to the ridge

And the looks of that rural schoo l ! Cracks be· tween the wide boards of the floor gave a view of bare ground four feet below. Long, pew·like benches were all adu lt size. There were no desks. and but one table on which to l earn to write. Dark walls were almost the color of the piece of blackboard. A pail held water from a spring at the bottom of the hill. H ow the childr en lov ed a ch ange in routin e, whether it was the teache r's fiddle-tunes on special days or the nurse's inspections!

Getting to the schoo l was bad enough. But, oh, the coming back. Th e steep g r ades and the sha rp turns where onc took the road on faith. Th e road, itself- sometimes on the creek bank, sometimes far above it on a ledge, sometimes in the c reek bed for fifty or a hundred feet, bouncing over rocks and scratching through close·growing bushes. And the log "corduroy" road that was the cut·off to Booger· town!

It's a blessing so many of those rude little schools are closed now and the stud ents brought to conso li · dated buildings. But we sti ll have some. And we sti ll have many problems of the under privileged Driving rapidly along this good road, I cou nt my blessings. We have doctors to ca re for our people; town officials in sympathy with our health program, the friendly co·operati on of the Departm ent of Pub · li e H ealt h , and the County Medi ca l Association, and schoo l authorities and tea chers in full accord with what we try to do.

We have the blessing of a civic water and sewer system, recently installed and unpaid for, but at least in operation. And we have the great blessing of friends from near and far to give so many thin gs we need.

Yesterday , for examp le , there were blue jeans and two knit shirts for Wade. Hi s siste r gives him home

and food, but there's little ldt for clothes. Thanks to a gift, there was money for sto ut shoes and sox. Wade never asks for him se lf- ju st for something for "Mar y's young-uns."

And the first thing this morning, there was Edna, who looks lik e the child in the " Broken Pitcher ." A second grader, she had burned herself "makin' th' bread for breakfast." She had only shabby panties under the thin dress and on ly a jacket over. There were some lin ed levis on the shelf, and a woolly shirt for her. And we went to O g le's store and bought sox and shoes to replace the torn canvas slip· pers. Wh at a blessing to us are OUI generous friends! No time, now , to think of anything but getting up the narrow , rutted road to the ledge where stands Glades School. Befo re the top is reached, the door bursts open and several children rush o ut to ca rry

ATIENTlON! All Pi Phis

When you visit Settlement Schoo l this summer, be sure to reserve one even in g to see "Chucky Jack," the story of Tennessee, written by Ke rmit Hunt er and produced by the Great Smoky M ountain H isto ri ca l Association , Incorporated.

The saga of Jo hn Sevier, known as the "father o f Tennessee," is enacted nightly, except Sunday, from the third week of June until Labor Day , in Hunter Hills Theatre-o ne of the finest of popular outdoor drama settings in the g reen hills on the outskirts of Gatlinburg.

Mr. Hunter, author of the University Th eatre section of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, and a professor at Holl ins College, h as joined his talents with those of Mr Jack Frederick Kil pat rick , whose field is music, to produce a hi ghly e ntertaining and informative production. Knowing that Mr . Kilp at rick is professor of composition at Southern Method ist University, a music c riti c for a Dallas newspaper, author of more than 125 separate works whose music has been performed by more than fifty of the world's great symp hony orches tras is enough to assure one of an evening's neverto·be·forgotten pleasure. Add to that the beauty of the natural setti ng, the colorful costumes and the fascinating dances, and the play be· comes a MUST!

equipment. Last week there was only the audiometer to test hearing. This week, there is the projector and the screen, the box of films and the long curtains to darken the windows.

We have e lect ri city in this school now, and there is no need to borrow the h eavy ca r battery from the garage to show th e pictures. This is another of ou r many blessings .

Today the Jesson is on cleanliness and personal ca re. W e ca ll it looking pretty. Aft e r the study films and the fairy story, t h ere is a surprise-more blessings from Pi Phi [fiends. A table is cleared and on it are arranged tooth paste, and brushes, combs and soap . The children are invited to choose a gift, and Mrs . Ogle and I watch th e agony of indecision, and the h appy fa ces of the youngsters as they go ba ck to their seats.

A gift of tooth paste, you say? If you only knew how little so me of them have. If you could see the rural school where they are expected to get education and inspiration for li ving.

The dirty, once·white building stands on a small patch of bare leve led g round with a cemetery just beyond. Th ere is a rickety pole with a torn basket for basket-ball when they have a ball. A pump which spews water from hol es in a pipe set over a ceme nt trough, is their sanitary drinking fountain. But t h at's bette r than a pai l of sp ring water.

There's no knob-ju st a rope end to pull the door open and shut . Gaping holes mark the window openings in the littl e h all. Inside, the partition that di . vided the room has been ripped out, leaving roug h 4 by 4 uprights. Two tall , rather ru sty stoves stand on oppos ite sides of the room with stove pipes hun g on loops of wire. Beauty is repre se nted by a ca lendar, a poster o r two and some crayon drawings .

It is no wonder the children love the picture shows and gifts of combs and soap. No wonder they welcome even the " In oculation Parti es" as a brightness to the days, and say good-bye with a shy wave o r a quick hug.

Th e H ea lth Center has a very definite place in the lives of the people. It s services, day afte r day, are impo rt ant in the community It is an int egra l part of the state and county health programs. It is a focal point of Civil Defense for the area and is designated as the Command Post by the state.

The work h as changed some since the not-so-good old days. But the children and grandchi ldr e n of our first patients come back to us from distant places, for it is part of h ome comi ng. Truly , the Heal th Center is as important as ever.

And thars a bl essi ng ."

COMPANIONSHIP

UPRIGHTNESS

SCHOLARSHIP

You learn companionship by the very lact that you are together, call yourselves sisters, bear the arrow. H ow deeply it sinks, how perlectly it becomes a part 01 your lile, your friends can not tell , you can't either until a test comes. But you unconscious ly co me to imitate the best, you learn a Jesson of goodness, however perfun ctorily Companionship is good for many things, it curbs your innate selfishness, it draws you out, if you are inclined to be reticent and secretive, and you also become lorebearing-a very good thing for us frail beings.

Pi Phi stands lor uprightness. The moral of this word is twolold : Get along at whatever cost; and be honest, don 't cheat. This corner you turn during your earthly career, and you, and you alone, will have to decide which it is to be. Vi ctory will be hard , victory will be easy, according to your decision; sometimes there wilJ be a drawn battle. But you cannot say that this Iraternity, while you belong to it, did not point out to you plainly which way you were to go. Pi Phi has ideals. These ideals are based on righteous living, it helps yo u to be good, it demand s of you to be honest, it urges you to speak your mind and be corrected if necessary. But it demands of you careful searching of heart belore you condemn, that you do not undermine rather than build up Criticism is ofte n helpful , but that, too, must be honest, not prompted by the desire to quibble and sta b in the back .

Pi Phi stands for scho la rsh ip-there, too, it demand s the honest endeavor to achieve. It is our sacred duty to make th e most 0 1 our ability, endowment, to be the best ever if we ca n , to be as good as we possi bly ca n There is no excuse there , everyone can excel in some measure, and that one excellence will bring with it others. As students, you should be the friends 01 your professors and win their friendship for you by your excellent dem ea nor, for if you can not excel in anything else, you ca n excel in good behavior; it is the very lea st and the very most th at sh o uld be demanded of you. But I feel that scholarship includes not only a reco rd for behavior, but a reco rd for endeavor to prove that you are a mbitious for other ho nors as well; that you w is h to make of your mind a finely tempered instrument.

Nobility

Th e re are two ki nd s of n obi lity. Nobility of position ... whi c h a lew are born into . Nobility of disposition which all of us can st rive for.

H e re are four practical rules of p u tting nobility into action. Jf we try to follow these rul es we (an be not only happ ier sisters toget her, but better persons eve rywh e re.

Keep YOllr promiseI We must all sh a re responsibilities in t h e house If we give our wo rd to do a job, t h en let us take it wi ll ingly and perform it cheerfully.

Keep yo"r temper. We are one big family. Only by b ei ng pat ient and understanding of one another's faults and appreciative of each other's abilities can we hel p and learn from each ot h er.

Keep YOllr moulh shill. R ather th an be cleve r and popular at the expen se of hurting a sister's reputation or character keep quiet. If t here is need for crilicis m , give it kindly and directly to the right person. Keep your heart warm. We should be ready at all times to help o ne another without looking for reward -even at the cost of personal in co nvenien ce. T o keep ou r heart warm, we have to keep h.appy, keep smiling, keep trying, and keep loving

If we really try to keep these rules day by day, we may be sure that we will learn not only the meaning of nobility, but the li ving of it, too. And it's by the living of il that Kappa Alpha Theta wi ll be a happy , harmonious home for all of us .-The Kappa Alpha Thela magazi11e

Excerpt from International Education-A Two-way Street

International education has to be a "two-way st reet. " \ Ve must receive as well as give. W e must l earn as well as teach. We must realize that the ancient cultures of other lands have much to co ntribute to our civi li zation. Most Ameri ca ns are not conscious of these truth s. They have g rown arrogant toward other nations. They are willing to help th em, but often in a condescending spirit. Th eir natural love for , and p ride in, Ameri ca has harden ed into blindness to the values of o ther customs and ideals Th ey forget that philosophy or beauty may be much more important than plumbing and automobiles. - VIR GINIA C. GILDERSLEEVE, Dean Emeritus, Barnard College, in the Ke y of Kappa Kappa Gamma

Louise J Bockman, d A, closed her commentary on the Panh ellenic luncheon styl e show with these words : T o be a graciOUS lady of poised dignity and quality-pleasing in physical appearance, projecting her inner 25 0

serenity and radiance in her face-her lovely person the result of self-<!iscovery and ",If-discipline. He r likeable personality and attitudes are a magnet, attracting and holding charming friends, and love Achieving personal satisfaction and recognition with honor in her chosen self-expressions. As a power for good-inspiring, comforting and encouraging others giving them opportunity for growth. She is ageless without worshiping youthfulness.

H e r wisdom embraces distinctive good taste, discernment, and common sense in all things including her choi ce of h ome and possessions.

Her inner ce rtainty finds strength in humility, gratefuJness, and appreciation, particularly in the smaller things of life.

She ha s an optimistic sense of humor resulting in an atmosphere of good will toward the universe. Life 's problems are chall e nges which she faces, accepts, and defeats . Living fully, ri ch ly, abundantly, zestfully, lovingly, with an ever.extending horizon-her personal growth and achievement result in her joyous happiness !

Back to Our Altars-The Divine Root

Go back to your altars, and what you learn there, believe; believe that it wiJJ work, if you'JJ let it work in and through you, try, so long as yo u shaJJ live, to live tho", beliefs, in every day of your lives, not just while you are in college. Be fanati cal about it , if you will, but not superior to others, ever; be deeply conce rned ; be humbly grateful-and you'll find that, with God's help , Ihe leachings of your fralemily allarJ will work! For faith - belief- is not a gamble, but it is rather, a personal savings account. When needed, it is at hand and upon demand, dependable and negotiable any time and anywhere.-JOHN HENRY FRIZZELL, <I> K '1', in Th e Shield; from Banlds Greek Exchange; reprinted in The Trial/gle of Sigma Si gma Sigma.
