OUR NEXT VICE-PRESIDENT AND HIS WIFE

The overwhelming victory of the Republican Party at the polls in November is of peculiar inlerest to every member of Pi Beta Phi because the election of Governor Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts to the office of Vice-president of the United States has brought new distinction to his wife, Grace Goodhue Coolidge, Vermont B, '02.

The details of Governor Coolidge's career are familiar to every one through the publicity of the campaign but the story of his co llege days and especially of his fraternity experiences is not so well known and so the following article from the October issue of TILe Phi Gamma Delta is reprinted here for the benefit of ARROW readers.

WHEN "CAL" BECAME A FIJl

RUIINISCENCES OJ1 Till! DAYS AT ALPHA CIII

By BROTHER JA:'fES D. CAUTHERS ('96)

In the fall of 1891 there came to Amherst College to enter the freshman class a slender, red-haired, keen-eyed student named John Calvin Coolidge. His home was in Plymouth, Vermont.

Apparently he attracted no particular attention at first for he did not join • a fraternity. This was not at all surprising when the conditions existing at that lim e are co nsidered. In those days the freshmen, with lew exceptions, h ad to tak e entrance examinations and this kept them busy and much to themselves before co llege opened. During this time the "rushing" by the fraternities was going on. ]f a freshman had no friends in any of the various chaplers he had to pass a hasty inspection and Coolidge was not on e who would appear at his best und er those conditions. I can picture bim going to the fraternity houses quiet, unassuming, reserved and perhaps nol speaking unless in an swer to a question and yet at the same time observing and appraising those who were looking him over. The "r ush ing" was all over in a week and if one wtre not asked to join at that time he rarely got a chance later. Under this system, it is needles s to say many good men were overlooked .

Coolidge went his own way quietly through his college course. Judge John P. Deering of Beddeford, Main e, a classmate of Coolidge and a Fiji, said o£ bim recenfly, "I roomed with Calvin Coolidge three years. two years in the lame house and one year in th e lame room. We were rv friendly

and ha.ve kept up our (dend .. hip since thai time. He w .. the quietest man I have ever met without any exception. He would study biltory and political economy in preference to any other subjects. He enjoyed all (orm, of athletics but never took part in any. He was friendly, cordial and good natured with those whom he knew well but his quiet, non-communicative habits apparently made some people think that he did not care (or their society."

He did not take part in the various forms of student activity, yet he was in touch with everything that went on in college. He took up the dassiel, but, as sta.ted before. bis inclination ran to history, especially that of the United Statts, and political economy. He did not excel in Any branch of Itudy but was above the average in all.

Coolidge wa. one oC the most 5tH possessed young men 1 have ever known. He aIway. gave one the impression oC kno .... ing much although he said little. His classmates toon learned that there was a great deal behind that mask oC silence. In appearance he was the typical "Yankee." Although spare in frame he appeared strong and sturdy; his eyes were shrewd and penetrating; his features sharp yet regular j his llpeech had the tang oC the New England hills. While apparently holding himselC alooC he knew everything that was going on in college and iC his opinion were asked he gave it in a few terse words.

Coolidge had Cew intimate friends, but he had no enemies. lie W8!ii kind and courteous toward all and had the respect oC all who knew him. lie early one trnit which he has kept all through his political liCe, i. e., he would not take one step out of the straight line Cor his own personal advantage.

-He hAd a highly developed sense of humor and a most original way of expressing himseH and those who knew him well enjoyed his company, for although he spoke lillIe what he did say wns to the point and often had a humorous twist.

He hnd an uncanny Caculty of si7.ing up people and events in college and in his political life since he has shown that he rarely made a mistake.

I n his senior year Coolidge was chosen by his class to be uGrove Orator," one of the mOllt·sought-after honors of the commencement exercises. The oration was a masterpiece of keen and satiricnl wit and humor and was the best I ever listened to nnd I have altencied many commencements since that time.

In this year also Coolidge entered the contest for the prize given by the Sons of the American Revolution for the best Essay on the "Principles of the American Revolution." The contest was open to the seniors of all colleges and Coolidge won the first prize.

Alpha Chi chapter of Phi Gamma Delta WAS (ounded at Amherst in December. 1&)3, although it did not appear publicly until early in 1894. 'ID.usty" Rhodes, Fiji from Sigma chapter, entered the class of 1895 as a junior and immediately got busy in Corming a chapter. At tha.t time there were cbapters of nine fraternities, all firmly estnblished nnd having good houses and years of prestige behind them. It seemed II. very adventurous undertaking for a small group oC men, without much money and with a small, rented and poorly furnished house to attempt to get II. foothold in conservative Amherst. But we had the enthusiasm and perhaps the foolhardiness of youth so we ventured

gaily on our way and have been going ever since. Owing to the peculiar "rushing" system good men w ere often passed over by the other fraternities 50 we were able to start with ten splendid men.

While we had little money and a modest house we were in earnest and I have always thought that Coolidge h ad watched and studied us and believed I in what we stood [or, because when the committee, of which I was a member. called on him to try to persuarde bim t o join he quickly uid "yel" and be was not gi,ven to making hasty judgments.

li e took a deep interest in the chapter and alt hough be did not Jive in the chnpter -house he spe nt considerable time there. We soon began to rely on his counsel and judgm en t. Tn debate h e CQuid say more in fewer words than any man I have ever met. Sometimes when the argument got heated and involved Coolidge would Quietly rise and in a few words state the matter concisely, give his opinion and everything would be straightened out. When given !my fraternity work to do the chapter could always r ely upon it being done p ro mptly and efficiently. His help and counsel were just what we needed in those trying days.

After graduation he located in Northampton , Massachu se tts, only a few miles from Amherst, so that he always remained in close touch with the chapter. While he did not visit the house oit e n, he was always ready to eive his help and advice and frequently finan ei D.l aid. I early formed the habit of con s ulti ng him on my numerous trips to Amherst and I a lw ays stopped off at Northampton to cons ult him and have kept it up all these years.

In H}03 conditions became such that we no longer could live in a rented house and it became n ecessa ry to buy • place. Alth o ugh we had no money we looked the situation over and found on ly one suitable site, got a price on it nnd began to form plans to raise the mon ey. In the meantime the owner got tired of waiting and sold a portion of the plot and [ learned that the purchaser was planning to make a re-sale. Quick action was necessary as we had to have all the property . I went to Northampton and took tb,e matter up with Coolidge and I made a note for $2,000 whi ch he endorsed and negotiated in his bank and bought the land. We th en 'raised some money and bought the house and again through Coolidge's influence got a mu ch larger mortgage on the property than we were r eally entitled to. As usual, "Cal" was on the job.

Alpha Chi chapter owes a great deal to Calvin Coolidge, not in reRected glory but in the work he has done. He has a lway s been so modest and so careful to avoid seeming to seek any reward or praise that perhaps many of the a lumni of the chapte r do not realize just what his aid and help have meant, but those who nave kept in close touch with affairs and have Jeept til> an active interest realize very fully what he has done for Phi Gamma Delta.

Alpba Chi is very proud of him and we like to feel that perhaps the chap ter had something to do with moulding the character of the man who is one of the foremost c iti ze ns of Massachusetts and when the rest of the country knows him better he will go down in history u one of tbe great men of his time.

During the campaign a great deal was published about the Governor's wife-but the following editorial from the Springfield Re-

OUR NEXT VICE-PRESIDENT AND HIS WIFE 133

known throughout the country as one of the most conservative and high class newspapers in the United States is especially worthy of note:

MRS. COOLIDGE, A NEW ENGLAND H OUSEKEEPE R

A figure deserving .11 the attention sbe received in yesterday'•• ceremonies at Northampton was Mrs. CooHdR'c It is part of political life that the public eye &ho uld be turned on the homes oC officials and of candidates; the Coolidge home is one which the American people may at this time observe with intere.t, profit and aatisfaction. From the home of no other candidate on the two tickets could the halt to extravagance and the call to simple, unostentatious living which was part of Governor Coolidge's addreliS, have come wilh s uch force of sincerity and exampk

Ii ardly had the applause at Governor CooHdge'. nomination subsided in the Chicago convention when it was predicted with friendly humor among the M:usachusettJs delegation that the governor's home. measured by the $3:: monthly rental, would become one of the effective items of the campaign. But the suggestion was made tbat unless Congress should increase the vice· presidential salary the governor would find it difficult to get along in Wash · ington in view of the different scale of living 3nd the social obligations of hi s presumptive office. To this the Bnswer came from 3n intimate of the governor'.: " W e ll. perhaps that's true. But, there's Mrs. Coolidge! And she is a 'wonderful housekeeper .'" So whether or not the governor himself is overrated as a mower of l awns or a maker of doughnuts, the members of the nolification committee had yelterdBY a ch:lnce at luncheon in the Coolidge home to enjoy the hospitality of a housewife of whom New England is pr6ud.

The week preceding election Mrs. Coolidge was guest of honor at a notable banquet in Boston tendered her by the \Vomen's Division of the Republican State Committee of Massachusetts. The following extracts from an account of the affair given by the Boston Transcript give a little idea of the esteem in whicn Mrs. Coolidge is held by the women of her own state.

Many kind words were spoken of Mrs . Coo lidge. wife of the govemor. at a banquet given in her honor at the American Hou se by the Wome{l's Division of the Rep ublican State Committee last night. There were m ore than five hundred women present. all sections of the state being represented. Mrs. Coolidge waa assured of the 10Y:l.l s upport of the R ep ublican women voters.

At the concl u sion of the spc!n.king, Mrs. Coolidge held 11 reception, lihakin&, hands with all in attendance and exp r essing her appreciation of the honor.

Mrs. William Lowell Putnnm, in beginning her address, spoke of having been an nnti-suffragist, but a.s the coun try had decided ihnt women must add Dew duties to those th a i have been theirs from the beginning, they must obey IlS loyal child ren.

" It is impossible to see Mrs. Coolidge without appreciati ng the h elp she must have been to him and without realiz i ng th a t his choice was nn example of the wisdom which h e has sh own through life.

Lieutenant Covernor Cox, who came inlo the banquet for a few minutes on his evening round of fourteen meetings, aroused enth u siasm by declnring that the governor owed his steadfastness of purpose in large measure 10 Mrs Coolidge. lie expressed his appreciation o f the effort of the women oC the stnle in so nobly taking over their new duti es of citize n ship and in discha rging their new responsibiliti es .

Mrs. Thayer suggested as a .s log,," for the \Vomen's Division, IIHave Faith in rthssnchusetts Wom en."

"We are here tonight," she said. " to userl that we have faith in one Massachusetts woman, and to pledge ou r whole l oyalty, devotion and suppo rt to Mrs . Calvin Coolidge."

"Mrs. Tillinghalit chara c terized the Republican women's organization of this stnte 85 one of th e best in th e entire country, saying that it now remains only C..,r it to Cunc tion nod to get e-very regi stered Republican woman to th e polls on Tuesday.

" \V e women have 110W become the joint houselceepers of the nation," she said, "and o nr fall housecleaning has been set for November 2. Unless all signs fail, we are going to do n. thorough job on thnt day _

uWe rejoi ce, Mrs. Coolidge," she said in conclusio n, '4 t hat Massac husetts has the opportunity of giving yo u t o the nation and we want you to feel that the Republican women of Ihis stille are bnck of you in every just and ria:hleous cause."

Grace Goodhue became a charter member of Vermont B November 24, 1898. She held various chapte r offices while an undergraduate, serving as cor r esponding sec r etary and as delegate to the Syracuse Convention in 1901. When the Western Massachusetts Alumnre Club was formed in 1910, she became its first president and held the ollice for a number of years. From 1912-15 she was Province Vicepresident of Alpha Province and was elected President of Alpha

Province at the Be rk eley Convention which she attended in 1915. She was obliged to r esign th e latter office in a f ew months, however, on account o f the increasing social duties of public life. She has a wide acquaintance througho ut the fraternity and every Pi Beta Phi wishes her good fortune as she enters upon her new responsibilities in official Washington.

THE INSTALLATION OF MAINE ALPHA

It was indeed a happy moment in the lives of a group of girls in the University of M aine when four enthusiastic Pi Beta Phis actually a rriv ed at th e station in Bangor, on l\fonday, May 24, and were co ndu cted t o th e co ll ege whe r e they were to install Maine A I n o rd e r Ihat t he se ni o r s who had worked un ceasitt gly towa rds n B <[) might be initiated be ro r e o mm encement the date of initialion was hastened a week.

Dean and {rs. Stevens had very kindly offered th e use of their spacious home for the initiation ce r emoni es, which took p l ace the following day.

B eca us e many o f th e final r ec it atio ns of the year fell on Tuesday , it was ne cessa ry for the gi rls t o attend a ll their classes. Therefore th e girls were initiated in tw o groups, the first starting at eight-thirty. The girls had the honor of having t hei r Grand Vice ·president, Anna Robinson - N ic k ers o n , initiate them. She was assisted by Laura J.

well to the wine and blue decorations and the University of Maine showed so plainly its pride in the new chapter that the occasion was a gala one indeed.

Following the reception came the first annual banquet of Maine A of Pi Beta Phi. It was served in the dining·hall of Ballantine , was prepared by the chef who was more than anxious to please the girls, and was served by girls from the other fraternities who volunteered their services. The air of mystery and expectation had gone, and in its place was the real joy of realization that each one was an actual wearer of the golden arrow of Pi Beta Phi f or which she had striven SO long to make herself worthy.

There were Beta Phi and University of Maine songs and cheers and the Pi Phi songs which the new members had learned for the occasion. The toastmistress was Ruth Small and the following responded to toasts:

The Founding of Beta Phi. .....•.. . ...... Elva Gilman

History of B eta Phi Doris Eastman

Mr s. Nicke rson then spoke to the girls and each visiting Pi Beta Phi responded to an impromptu toast. It then remained for the new girls to learn the intricacies of the Marching Song. After the cheering had subsided, twenty-five Maine Alpha girls declared that there was no doubt left but that they were the "happiest Pi Beta Phis on earth."

HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MAINE

T he Unive rsity of Maine is a part of the educationa l syste m of the state and was established as a result of the Morri! Act i n 1863. It was called or iginally the State College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts, but this name was changed to the University of Maine in 1897. The i n stitution opened with a class of twelve members and two teache rs. During 1919-20 the r e were 1,213 students registe r ed with a f aculty of 160. The unive rsity is located in Orono on the main line of the Maine Central Railroad, eight miles from Bangor

It is coed ucationa l , women having been admitted since 1872. Last year 235 women we r e r egistered in the university . ,

HONOR GRADUATES 1919-20

Last year there appeared under this heading, a brief history of each of the national honorary fraternitieS which admit women to membership. Since that time one more organization has been added to the list.

The Alpha Chapter of the Alpha Rho Tau Fraternity was established at the University of Nebraska in the spring of 1920. Its purpose is to give recogniti on to students who achieve distinction in the Schools of Fine Arts, and who for that reason are not eligible to membership in Phi Beta Kappa. In general, the aims, purposes and conditions of engibility follow those of Phi Beta Kappa. Membership is open to both men and women students of painting, music or dramatic art, who are registered fon a B.F.A. degree. Alpha Rho Tau would probably be classed as an honorary non - professional fraternity.

CONVENTION

The twenty-fifth Biennial Convention of Pi Beta Phi will be held at "The Inn," Charlevoix, Michigan, July 1-6, 1921.

Now that the war is over, and we may once more consider ou r pleasures rather than our duties-may we not hope that this Convention of Pi Beta Phi will be the largest and best ever I Won't you come and do your bit to make it the largest and best I

On all sides we hear the question, UWhy go to Charlevoix again?" And always we find the questioner did not attend the last Convention at Charlevoix, or there would be no questign I

Those fortunate enough to have attended the 1918 Co nv ention know that "The Inn," and Charl evoix are ideal for Convention headquarters, and if possible will be with us again in 1921. A beautiful location with complete isolation (which is very necessary for a successful Convention) has the advantage of the best of hotel accommodati ons at a reasonable rate.

C harlevoix is a city of about 3,000 inhabitants, located Qn the east shore of Lake Michigan, in the heart of the beautiful northern Michigan resort country.

"The Inn ," surrounded by very att ractiv e grounds is located on Pine Lake , within a mile of Lake Michigan. The large ve randas and attractive lobby, with its easy chairs and writing desks, will mske you feel at home at once. This spacious lobby and its cheerful open firepla ce needs no introduc tion to the Pi Phis who shared. its cheer in 1918.

The attractio ns for those interested in out-door sports are many. Three tennis courts, and two croquet courts are located on liThe Inn"

CONVENTION

grounds. An 18 hole golf course, close at haod is at the disposal of the Inn guests. Horses may be obtained from the Charlevoix riding school for any who care to ride. Our athletic director will be glad to arrange tennis or golf tournaments, to show us which chapters exceII in sports as well as in scholarship.

CONVENTION PROGRAM

Details of Convention program are not sufficiently definite for publication at the present time, but the March ARROW will bring to you the tentative program. The important business taken care of at the regular sessions will be of great interest to the visitors as well as delegates. The evening programs will be varied. An evening with our Settlement School will surely be a joy to all. A scholarship symposium followed by the model initiation is something not to be forgotten, and will inspire the delegates to retu rIt to their chapters determined to lead in scholarship.

HOTEL ANNOUNCEMENT

During Convention Pi Phi will have exclusive use of "The Inn," which accorrunodates 400 guests. The Belvidere, and Charlevoix Beach (two other Charlevoix hotels) will be glad to take care of any overflow of Pi Phis, relatives or friends, who wish to share our pleasures at Charlevoix. Our rates at liThe Ino"--$5.oo per day per person, two in a room also include the banquet, which will be the only formal occasion of Convention.

TRANSPORTATION

The Pere Marquette Railroad, over which you will arrive at Charlevoix is providing us with our own special cars, which will leave Chicago, Detroit, Toledo, and Grand Rapids on the evening of June 30, and arrive at Charlevoix in one train on the morning of July 1. The March ARROW will contain railroad and puJlman rates, also instructions regarding hotel reservations and baggage.

CONVENTION VIA MOTOR

No doubt there are many who will wish to travel to Charlevoix by motor, and we may safely promise them a pleasant trip, for many of the Michigan roads will be greatly improved , in fact, re·buiit, before next July. There is a large appropriation for road improvement in the state of Michigan, most of which will be used next spring, and

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

very fortunately will include quite a rew miles of roadway leading to Charlevoix So with splendid roads, and the beautiful scenery of Michigan, of which have all heard, it is very probable that many will desert the Pi Beta Phi special cars for the open road. Then, of course, there is the advantage of having a ca r with you after reaching Charlevoix, as there are splendid roads through beautiful Lake country leading to all the nearby resorts. Watch for the March ARROW, as we hope to publish details of motor trips from Chicago and Detroit.

SUMMER GATHERINGS OF PI PHIS

Every surruner, Pi Phis meet each other at Y. W. C. A. Confer· ences at summer schools, recreation camps and the many different resorts where people assemble from all parts of the country. This year there was one organized attempt to bring Pi Phis together, the Alpha Province House-party an account of which follows but there were many other informal gatherings which various people attending have kindly reported for the ARROW. The Editor is always glad to give space to reports of this kind.

ALPHA PROVINCE HOUSE PARTY

On Thursday, June twenty-fourth, guests began to arrive at the Pi Beta Phi house in Syracuse for Alpha Province house-party. We were all heartily welcomed by our new president, Mrs: Bowen.

Friday evening, activities began with a Uget-acquainted" party at which a great many Syracuse alumnre and active girls were present to meet the visiting delegates.

Saturday morning, real business started with a helpful discussion of local problems, The chief topics under considerat ion were and scholarship. After lunch, we enjoyed a pleasant theatre party with the In the evening the fraternity house was opened for an informal dance.

One of the most enjoyable trips of the house· party was planned for Sunday afternoon when we motored to Lake Skaneatias, twentytwo miles away. The weather could not have been mOre favorable o r the company more co ngenial. After a delightful dinner we returned home and talked together, exchanging ideas until the small hours of the morning .

1fonday morning we continued the discussion, considering the re· spon'ibilities of Pi Beta Phi and Panhellenic conditions. Many help · ful suggestions were advanced and problems were solved. For Monday afternoon a section was reserved at Keith's new theatre, for the alumnre and delegates after which we were entertained at a buffet supper at the lovely home of Mrs. Teller (Kathe ryn Burr, Colorado A, '1)4.)

The last session was held Tuesday morning when Mrs. in her usual charming manner gave us parting advice and inspiration for our respective chapters. 'rhe pa rty broke up Tuesday afternoon, each delegate feeling a keen appreciation of the opportunity which Mrs. Bowen had made possible for her to gain in creased knowledge of the aims and workings of the Pi Beta Phi.

PI BETA PHIS AT CHAUTAUQUA

To a score of Pi Beta Phis, Chautauqua this summe r had an added charm in that it brought together fraternity sisters from all parts of the country. Members of fourteen chapters from New York to Colorado and from Michigan to Louisiana spent three very enjoyable afternoons forming Pi Phi friendships and bringing news of their c hapters and clubs. Soon after Chautauqua opened, we were the guests of Mrs. A. E. Bestor, Indiana A, '03, the wife of the president of the Institution, the following week Marion Dale, Colorado A invited us to her summer home j and the third week, Mrs. R. J . McCollum, Mi chigan B, entertained us at the Chautauqua Women's Clubhouse. In the last week or summer school a Panhellenic picnic for both men and women Greeks was held, at which Pi Phi had the largest representation.

The following Pi Phis attended one or more of our meetings: Ethelyn Toler, Illinois 6.; Ethel Coolidge, Iowa B; Mrs . J. A. Lockwood, Mrs. W. H. Nuchol and E. Voegthe, Maryland A; Mrs. L. L. Ha\[, Illinois E; Mrs. R. J. M cCo llwn, Mi chigan B; Mrs. Paul G. Weidner, Missouri B; Ethel Fithian, Illinois Z; Mildred Rees, Michigan B; Marion Dale, Colorado A; Mrs . A . E.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

There may have been other Pi Phis on the grounds of whom we did not know, though we kept close watch of the Panhellenic register and were always on the lookout for arrows. We hope next year to do still more in bringing Pi Phis together. If all would g o promptly and register when they come, they would be sure of not being left out of any good times.

THE SUMMER AT CAMP PANHELLENIC

All Pi Phis are interested in Camp Panhellenic since the founders and directors of th e project are members of our own fraternity. This past season, the group of campers included members of K A 0, A r <I> and II The latter repres en'ted the following chapters: Missouri B, Alice K oken ( Mrs Walter) and Alice Weidmer; Kansas B,

Ruth Siefkin and May Siefkin; Illinois B, Margaret Newman; Maryland A, May L. Keller; Wisco nsin A, Gladys Dixon; New York d, Edith H. Matzke; M ichigan B, Martha Gray and Ontario A, Edith H. Gordon .

What is the outstanding characteristic of Camp Panhellenic? What one word will convey the subtle atmosphere of that delightful spot, and make clear the speU it casts on all who sojourn th ere. "Satisfying" seems most appropriate. From the time when the red glow of the

uprising sun spreads across Lake Michigan, tipping the tree tops of Rock Island, and bidding the eyes of t he sl ee ping tent-dwellers open and see a new and more beautiful day, till the soft moon silhouettes the tapering evergreens in the quiet wate rs of Jackson Harbor, and ever and anon the vivid N orthem Lights shine in eerie splendour, there is a sense of completeness, of satisfaction in all the surroundings and experiences, that makes each day perf ect and apart.

It is a wonderful and stimulating experience to see the birth of a new idea. It is a thrilling experienc e to watch that idea grow, and take form and become larger and more beautiful than was first dreamed for it. Given the most suitable sites [or a camp i given the pluck and enthusiasm to enter the wilderness single-handed and shape a place that rejoices the eye, and typifies the ideals of beauty and health; and given the faith that college women des ire just what such a camp can give; and one sees the foundations that underlie Camp Panhellenic.

Those who haye been privileged to spend part or all of this first sum.mer at the camp , living in the big out-of-doors, watching the wealth of colour of Michigan and Green Bay, whether of blue in the days of the Northwester, or of green in the days of the Northeaster, or of slate grey Oecked with foam, in the day of the big storm from the southeast, feel that something has come into their lives that many days of hard and monotonous wo rk through the winter cannot drive out.

What of the joyful days spent together tramping the woodsey trails I What of the beach fire each night and the songs that ac companied itJ What of the nightl in the open under the stars, when we watched the Great Bear make a half circle around the North star, and saw the moon set and the sun rise I What of the morning dip in the crystal clear waters of the little channel, with the sun and air to dry one and make one feel altogether new made I What of the still moonlight on Lake Michigan when the canoe seemed to Ooat suspended between air and water, and the stones on the bottom were perfectly seen at twenty feet deep I What of the gay, blue days on the fishing smack when nets were lifted and the silvery harvest was gathered in I In retrospect one sees and remembers so much that is indelibly impressed on mind and heart.

The great usefulness of Camp Panhelleni<, bowever, lies in the opportunities it affords for meeting women from other colleges and other fraternities. All the joy and beauty of the camp would be small

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

if it were not shared with others of similar tastes and ideals. New lasting friendships are made quickly because the co nventional bars are down. Lasting friendships are made because what is true and good in each is immediately recognjzed. One cannot camoufiage in the heart of nature.

Can you see the group of tanned, healthy fa ces, and the straight well -poised bodies standing around the table in the high ceilinged, airy dining ·room and singing:

Here's to Kappa Alpha Theta, He re' . to Alpha Phi, Here'. to Kappa Kappa Gamma, And the arrow of Pi Beta Phi, Ring, ching, ching, Here'. to Gruuma Phi and Tri Dell, And all the girls' fraternitie s, But here's to Panhelleni c. United are we.

They typify the spirit o f Camp Panhelleni c.

PI BETA PHIS AT <;:O LUMBIA UNIVERSITY

SUMMER SES SION

Arrows seemed SO numerous on the campus at Columbia Univer · sity this summer th at a group of Pi Phis decided to call a m,eeting. Twelve responded and p l anned for a dinner at a Fren ch Tearoom for the following week.

The following were present at the dinner but we estimated that there were about twice as many Pi Phis as thos e nam ed who were registered at the university summer sessi o n.

Roberts and Edith Hess, Iowa r; Bertha Collins, Vermont A; Mari o n :Mc Kinney, Wisconsin A j Ethel Carey, New York B; and Anne Rodey, Maryland A.

We bad a special table reserved and were all seated around it while , we exchanged Pi Phi news from the various colleges represented, and

TEACHING IN THE PHILIPPINES 171

also discussed the work in which we were engaged at Columbia. It was a splendid opportunity for us to get acquainted, and is a pleasant memory now we are scattered and engaged in our various lines of work. It made the bond of Pi Phi just a little closer between us and I am sure that all who attended enjoyed the occasion.

TEACHING IN THE PHILIPPL ES

By MARGARET TORllENCE, Iowa A, 'fO

How would you girls 3;t home like the unique experience of be.ing the only unmarried white woman in a town of forty thousand? Well,

here I am, and such is the case.

Mother and I sailed from San Francisco, on the Anny Transport Thomas, May fifth, and reached Manila, June first. We saw little of the capital, as I received my assignment the day following and left June third, for Zamboangao We are a three days steamer trip from ?\.fanila down toward Borneo. The Japanese and Eng· lish boats for Singapore and Australia stop here. Doesn't that sound Oriental?

The wall is part o( Ft. Pilar, built to keep oft' the Mor05.

Zamboanga is considered the best town in the Islands, next to Mani la. It is well built up and has many modern improvements; -hard roads, electric Ughts, city water, an American hotel, ice plant, three department sto res, threesto r y office building, and a strictly modern Provincial High School. A $150,000 Normal School is nearing completion, and a large new dock is being constructed.

An Army Post, Pettit Barracks, is located here, and many of the officers are Americans. They, with their families constitute a large part of the social life. Every Thursday afternoon at the Post, the wives of the officers, serve tea. All the American women are invited and, as the barracks are on the beach, we have a swim before tea is

served. There are over one hundred Americans and Europeans here. The men have a club called the "Overseas Club," and they offer various social entertainments during the year.

In the market we can get tomatoes (size of marbles and up), green co rn , peas, beans, etc., so do very nicely. There is much sea food, many chic kens , some pork and beef and meat of the carabao . The last named is the draft animal here, looks something like a cow, but has very long ho rns, and a glistening black skin covered with a grayish brown hair. For transportation the re are auto busses, autos, rickshaws, and calesas. The calesa is a two wheeled rig drawn by pony. The driver sits perched on a single seat in the middle of the front. Th e seat for passengers is directly behind him-fare forty ce nts per hour.

There are few flies here but plenty of mosquitoes, and cockroaches as large as your thumb, swanns of ants everywhere and lizards all ove r the ceiling. I have seen no snakes here, although I have been in the woods frequently. We are only a few minutes' auto ride from a beautiful park in the f oot hills of the mountains.

M ost of the business is co ndu c ted by Chinese (Chinos-cheenoh.). They have several good stores here where we can buy any canned articles we can purchase in the states. They have intermarri ed with the natives, and th ei r children, Chinese mestizos are among our brightest p.upils . There are large numbers of coconut groves and copra ( dried coconut) is a chief export. Much ri te also is grown. Across the strait from us are large rubber plantattons, one of which we visited. Op a recent launch trip we sailed up a tropical river with dense mi:lDgrove swamps on either side, alive with crocodiles, cha ttering wild monkeys and parrots of varied hues. The beautiful co ral beds, over which we sailed, could be plainly seen in the clear, quiet water.

This is a Moro province so is doubly interesting . These people are :Mohammedans and many of the men wear the fez. There are several Moro bam'os (villages) near here, one of which we recently visited , Very rarely do the people there see a white woman so we were objects of great curiosity. Practically the entire population f o ll owed us through their one street, I counted seventeen children fr om th e ages of two to fourteen and hardly a child had on even one article of clothing. The M o ro man wears very tight trousers, and of ten a sort of Eton Ja cket; with a gay colored scarf around the head;

TEACHING IN THE· PHILIPPINES 173

the brighter the colors, the better; orange, purple, red, plaid, etc. The women frequently wear trousers, and a loose waist. Draped around the shoulders and extending to the hips is worn a length of goods with ends sewed together. This is thrown over the head in the hot sun.

The Christian Filipinos, especially the men, dress in American style. The girls all wear American dress, and many of the womeD do so, especially the teacbers. The streets present a veritable kaleidoscopic moving picture-seen in half an hour from my window;-a woman in native costume with a large bundle of washing on her head j a Hudson, seven passenger, with ten Moros in garments of bright blue, orange and red; a boy of ten with a red fez and baggy of blue; a boy with tight fitting blue trousers, salmon colored scarf, white shirt with a pink and blue tight jacket, the whole surmounted by a black fez; a with two American women; a Japanese woman in approved Japan ese style j three Chinamen in baggy blue suits j three tiny girls in the States' latest styles; two scout soldiers holding hands; an American with his Chinese mesliso wife; five young men in white duck suits, one man carrying a cane; and so on ad infinitum. One of the most interesting scenes to me is the natives coming home from market; dangling on a string from one hand is a piece of meat or liver, unwrapped, an eel or some fish j in the other hand a basket of vegetables, and on the head a straw tray of greens, fruits, etc.

I am teaching English in the Provincial High School. We have an American man as superintendent, and another as instruc tor j there are two of us American women, making four in all j the rest are native teachers. In this school we have children from all over the province from the fifth g rade up. I have found them as a rule courteous but they require firmness in discipline as in the States . English of course is the language used, and expulsion from school is the penalty for speaking diale c t (a mixture of Spanish and native words).

N ow I have pictured to you the life as I find it here, and it is an interestina-, pleasant life indeed, but girls in other provinces would have a far different tale. As I have said this is the town outside Manila and the climate here is much. better, as we have no .co ntinued rainy season, and usually have a cool breeze.

This being a U. S. possession the people look on us as true representatives of a democratic government and in all things aspire to be

like us. Hence a.ll Americans here should keep in mind that we aTC living examples to our brown b r others and sisters. I was asked recently, "Would you advise a girl friend of yours to come here to teach?" Most heartily "Yes" if to Zamboanga, and perhaps to Iloilo, ecbu and Manila, and a few other towns. uNo," if to other places out in the provinces unless she be close to thirty yeah of age, and prepared to endure hardship, and lack of co mpany. I have been most fortunate in being assigned to a town where there are so many Americans, and most of all in "having my mother. with me.

As one paper, La Vanguardia J puts it: ", State clearly to teachers who desire to come here that this country is not a paradise, that Bfe in the provinces is quiet and monotonous, poor in comforts, and that a veritable spirit of sacrifi ce and r esignation is necessary to rema.in in an emotionless environment far from home and the dear est desires of the heart."

I trust you will enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing of my experiences here.

LIFE IN PORTO RICO

By ANNIE WHITE GILES, Illin ois Z, "07

Twelve years ago we came to Porto Rico, and from th e dungeon.like Spanish house in the little southern tOWD, which was our first residence and headquarters of the construction, we Americans, about twelve in number, moved into the tents which comprised our engineering camp.

The campsite wa.s literally hlasted out of the ro cks and fertile and brilliantly green as is most of this country our lawn, for the time being, was a succession of ragged bo ul ders and broken earth which sometimes gleamed too brilliantly under the strong tropical SUD. This apparently unattractive location was chosen because of its unique situation, near town and yet out of its dirt and noise. In a year's time houses followed the tents, and slowly grass covered the slopes of our little hill, palm and flamboyant trees sp r ang up, and there we had our little American quarter, as different from a native

-Haltie Gasner Torrence, 10 A, '79.

LIFE IN PORTO RICO

residence section as are our lives from those of our numerous Spanish neighbors.

As tents are to homes, so in those days, were the markets, groceries, and dry goods stores in comparison to those we had left in the North-<:anned goods could scarcely be had. Uneeda Biscuit, if found, were a damp or wormy mass, and the best that. the market could afford was an offering of vegetables of two or three varieties, monotonously the same, day aIter day. I.t was a. sad day for the American girl, who must take cbarge of the camp table for a month, seeing that there were three meals a day for the hungry engineers and a force of unintelligible blacks on hand to prepare them.

It is a rar cry from the rum and codfish laden shelves of the grocery stores of those days, to the attractive places one sees now. Fresh American butter is obtainable (if there is not a stevedore strike in New York) and in the bigger places that afford cold storage, one can even occasionally luxuriate to the extent of a real United States beefsteak and celery which is the height of an American housekeeperts ambition here.

For the American girl who comes here to teach, life is much simpler and at the same time broader than it was for her venturesome sister who dared the unknown in the early days. She is most fortunate, however, who can be assigned to one of the larger towns and is sure of such a location, before leaving the mainland. The reason for this is that she is much more apt to find other Americans, than in the smaller towns or rural districts, for in the latter she may be the only American. A disappointed girl, sent to a small village, said to me last year, HThere is nothing for me to do after school hours here." The natives are not inhospitable; rather they are easy going, absorbed in domestic topics, or the next ball, and find little in common with the American girl, who most likely knows very little conversational Spanish . They never make a call on a newcomer; rather they await her invitation to them, but if she takes the initiative and indicates a desire to learn Spanish with them they are delighted -to help her.

I From the standpoint of good health too, it is better that she be in a larger town. Food and sanitary conditions arc better and she has a chance to keep house with other American teachers, who need and desire food prepared in accustomed American fashion. Five girls in Guayama very successfully kept house one year. They kept a

176 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

native cook whom they taught and whose work they supplemented from time to time with favorite dishes of their own preparation. It is a strong American stomach, indeed, that can stand a year's boarding at a native table. The dishes are uniformly greasy and heavy, with almost no fresh fruits o r vegetables to counterbalance.

Malaria and typhoid are a real menace here, and only by systematically sleeping under tightly tucked in mosquito nets and drinking boiled water can they be avoided.

For the girl who comes here for a year or two of experience in teaching, or to learn Spanish there are many pleasures which overbalance the disadvantage of l ow salary and high steamship fare to and fro which must be met with her own funds. The scenery is gorgeous, and there are splendid r oads to all parts of the island; almost any point can be reached by automobile and the ret urn home made in a week-end. Every town of any size has its American chu rch with a scattering of Americans from the mainland and native converts. Then there is the beautiful native embroidery to be admired and coUected perhaps, the splendid fruits and comfo rta ble climate--for indoors and on porches; one never the heat of a summer's day such as of the Middle West. American girls are always to the dances, and every town has its movies, the larger ones having all the best films.

I n spite of tw enty years of occupation and familiarity with Americans, however, many ' of the old customs of the Spanish days hold good, and an American girl will do to r emembe r some of the all pervading, if to her strange, notions of social etiquette here. The people as- a whole have never become fully accustomed to the independence and freedom of the American girl, and if she would retain the respect and good·will of the townspeople where she lives, she must forego sometimes what in the States are innocent and ordinary pleasures. Jaunts unchaperoned, with a gentleman escort, give rise to suspicion of a girl's motives, though several young people of th e two sexes or a crowd of girls may go about alone uncriticized. Unfortunately, to the Spanish mind, th ere is but one meaning attributed to a girl's being alone with a gentleman and out of the sight of other people. Many of ou r gi rls have 90 t heeded warnings in the matter and before the year is out have found themselves somewhat ostracized by the natives little as they really deserve such treatment. It is by a careful attitude toward these things that an American girl

can help a native community, for naturally her influence in the school room is negligible, if her pupils have not confidence in her conduct after she leaves them.

Conservative and uncomprehending of our social customs,· as the Porto Ricans may be inclined to smile tolerantly at our unintenti111 brusqueness, Yankee hustle, and fantastic sense of honor in business, one feels sure of their sincere if unexpressed approval of developments and growth during ou r occupation. Somewhat deliberately they take advantage of innovations, but enthusiastically cling to them when won over, forgetting, as is human, the ridicule heaped upon the ucrazy Americans" who instituted the change. We sometimes find ourselves as regards their opinion of us, in the honorable if not always spicy position of old Sal, the wash woman who having ceased to be comely, confided to a friend, IIAh knows Ah ain't particular chahmin' to Mose no mo, but Ah reckin he'll stick by long's Ah keep dese heah wash places."

Two things stand out in a most unique way as belonging definitely to the Southern Mountains and holding charm and interest fo r everyone who can become a t all familiar with them, the mountain ballad, dating back to the old Elizabethan period, and the hand -woven coverlets, with design as old as the ballad and the beautiful pattern showing, if we on ly knew it, as clearly the clan to which it belonged as does the Scotch plaid.

\Ve read so much of the mountains and their people these days that one .hardly needs to remind residents of other sections of the isolation, the old, old customs still in use and the splendid people with their quaint ways and speech. Anyon'e who has ever been in the mountains can readily und e rstand the roman ce and art that is woven into the songs, the coverlets or the people themselves for trees and streams have spoken to them much more frequently than the human voice and nature's beauties have not been marred or supplemented by anything artificial.

A love of music and an ear for it seem natural to nearly everyone. Many times it is the ballad that the child learns first, no Mother

Goose melodies are as familiar it is strange indeed to listen to a little tot singing of the courtly days of old, the knights and "ladyes" and probably th e tragic death of the lover. It is s till the custom to have "singings" when a family move into a new house, when the young people want some entertainment o r ce lebrate at holiday time. Christmas or Thanksgiving do not bring the songs of the seasons but the o ld songs handed down from generation to gene r ation and some· times 1 almost regret that we tea c h in the schools so many new songs and perhaps encourage the younger ones to neglect what belongs so distinctly to them.

A few years ago Mr. Ceci l Sharp, of London , visited this section of the country and in talking to the young peop le in one of our schools gave the history of some of the ballads. After he had sung some, one of the lads told us those were 1l1 ove songs" the people at his home knew. Mr Sharp became interested at once and made a trip of eighteen miles bac k to the, boy's hom e where he found over two hundred old ballads, some that had been partly or entirely lost in England for yea r s but had r emained intact in these mountains.

To those o f us who are acquainted with the country and people his introduction to th e English Folk Songs 0/ tlu SOllthern Appalachians is most interesting and true t o present day conditions.

"The present inhabitants of the Laurel Count ry are the direct descendants of the origina l settlers who were emigrants from England and , I suspect, fr om the low lands of Sco tland-I was able to ascertain with some degree of ce rtainty that the settlement of this particular section began about three or four generations ago, that is, in the latter part of the eighteenth ce ntury or early part of the nineteenth . H ow many years prior to this the o riginal emig r ation had taken place I am unable to say but it is fairly safe, I think, to conclude that the present-day residents of this section of the mountains are the descendants of those who left the shores 'of England some time in th e eighteenth ce ntury. Their speech is English, not American, and from the number of exp r essions they use which have longbeen obsolete elsewhere, and the old-fashioned way in which they pronounce many of their words, it is c lear they 3re talking the language of a past day, though of what period I am not co mpetent to decide . Although uneducat ed , in the sense in which that term is usually understood they possess that elemental wisdom, abundant knowledge and intuitive understanding whi c h only those who live in constant touch

with Nature and fa ce to face with reality seem to be able to acquire. Physically, they are strong and of good stature, though usually spare in figure . Their features are clean cut and oiten handsome while their complexions testify to wholesome out-of-door habits. They carry themselves superbly, and it was a never-failing delight to note their swinging, easy gait and the sureness with which they could negotiate the footlogs over the creeks, the crossing of which caused us many anxious momenls. The reason, I take it, why these mountain people, albeit unlettered, have acquired so many of the essentials of c ulture is partly to be attributed to the large amount of leisure they enjoy, without which, of course, no cultural development is possible, but chiefly to the fact that they have one and all entered at birth into the fuII enjoyment of their racial heritage.

My sole purpose in visiting this country was to collect traditional songs and ballads- I naturally expected to find conditions very sinoilar to those which I encountered in England when engaged in the same quest. But of this I soon was to be disilIusioned. Instead, for instance, of having to confine my attention to the aged as in England where no one under the age of seventy ordinarily possesses the folksong tradition, I discovered that I could get what I wanted from pretty nearly everyone I met, young and old. In fact, I found myself, for the first time in my life in a community where singing was as conunon and almost as universal a practice as talking. It is no exaggeration to say that some of the hours I passed sitting on the porch of a log cabin, talking and listening to songs, were amongst th e pleasantest I have ever spe nt.

The mountain singers sing in very much the same way as the English folk -s inger, in the same direct, straight-forward manner, without any conscious effo rt at expression, and with the even tone and clarity of enunciation with which all folk·song collec tors are familiar. They have one vocal peculiarity, however, which I have never noticed among the English, namely the habit of dwelling arbitrarily upon certain notes of the melody, generally the weaker accents The wonderful charm, fascinating and well-nigh magical, which the folk-singer produces upon those who are fortunate enough to hear him is to be attributed very largely to his method of singing, and this, it should be understood, is quite as traditional as the song itself."

In closing his splendid appreciation of the mountain people and their ballads Mr. Sharp calls attention to a most important fact, that

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

of holding to the best in the old while we are teaching the new. There are so many things which should be carefully held and guarded lest they e ntirely vanish as new people, new business and more education come in. To quote Mr. Sharp again:

"Remembering that the primary purpose of education is to place the childre n of th e present generation in possession of the cultural achievements of the past so that they may as quickly as poSlllble enter into . their racial inheritance, what better form of music or literature can we give them than the folk-songs of the race to which they belong, o r of the nation whose language they speak? To put it another way, the aim of educationist should be Dot to forge the first link of a new chain, but to add a fresh link to the old one."

After two years at Ames, Laura transferred her cr edi ts to the State Teachers College at Cedar Fans where she was graduated in June 1916 She taught Home Economics one year in th e Larra bee public school at Clermont, Iowa, and two years at Upper Iow a University, Fayette.

On November 14, 1918 a message from the government to Laura sta t ed th,' her nance, .Hewitt L. Williams had died in Fran ce. Laura had made her supreme sacrifice to her country. Believing tha t greater opportunities for service would be hers as a hospital dietitian she entered Michael Reese Hospital, Chicago, in September

1919 and while receiving her training, conducted evening classes in Chicago Community centers for the American Red Cross. She also received her commission as an American Red Cross dietitian. On March first of the present year she accepted the position of dietitian at the hospital in Ponca City, Oklahoma.

Laura was an en thusiastic II <1>. While residing in Mason City she and her mother were loyal members of the Mason City Panhellenic club. In college day. Laura's leadership in the social life of the Y. W. C. A. was an inspiration to all who worked with her. Her beautiful Christian character radiated good chee r and sincerity.

MARY REGINA GRIFFIN died May 3, 1920, of double pneumonia at her home in Pittsburgh, Fa. She was initiated into Pennsylvania 6. , September 19, 1918, at its installation.

The saddest experience that has occurred in the history of the Pennsylvania <l. and the Pittsburgh Alumm" Club is the death of Mary Griffin, who was a charter member of the local chapter.

Her death seemed more sad to us because the date of her burial fell on her twenty-fourth birthday.

Mary was the reserved, quiet, dignified type of a girl, self·effacing and putting the chapter's interests far above her own. Only those who came in daily contact with her could penetrate the quiet of her and see the sterling woma!l beneath.

She came into the petitioning chapter, the Dianthian Fraternity in her sophomore year and was initiated into Pennsylvania A at the time of its installation, September 19, 1918, and served as corresponding secreta ry during her senior year in college. She was an energetic II c;I) worker and held the chapter's interests at heart.

Having graduated from Peabody High School, Pittsburgh, Pa., with honors she was an excellent student in college. Her final record showed that she had missed the cum laude by a small percentage. She was a real force in the chapter, and her opinion was always regarded when decisions of moment necessitated. Pi Phis in Pittsburgh feel her loss keenly

CONVENTION CALL

The twenty-fifth national convention of Pi Beta Phi will be held from July 1 to July 6, inclusive, at The Inn, Charlevoix, MichigaJl, the scene of the enjoyable convention of 1918. Undoubtedly many members of the fraternjty will raise the question why does convention return to Charlevoix? The [ollowing are the points which inHuenced Grand Council in making the decision.

1. Increased railway made necessary the selection of a central location.

2. Active chapters o[ the fraternity and alumn", members urged that convention be held at a resort hotel where exclusive privileges would be graJlted to the fraternity.

3. The Inn, Charlevoix, Michigan, is the only resort hotel centrally located which exclusive privileges for the first week in July, the only time feasible for convention.

4. Charlevoix offers the attraction of a beautiful location on Lake Michigan, in the heart of America's Middle West summer playground, with the advantages of excellent hotel accommodations, including a large auditorium. The Inn is conducted on the American plan at rates that are not prohibitive.

5. The experiences of the 1918 convention give the best of guarant""!' of the courtesy and consideration of the management and of the adequacy of The Inn to meet Pi Beta Phi's convention requirements.

Plans are being made for a program of exceptiona l strength and attractiveness. Pi Beta Phis North, South, East and West are urged to make their summer plans include convention at Charlevoix the Beautiful.

THE WORLD IS CALLING! Never before have college undergraduates shown such a deep interest in the aiiairs of the world as today. The overseas experiences of so many returned college men, the classroom and campus discussions of the League of Nations, resulting in such a remarkable poll of student that it aroused comment even in the United States Senate, a few months ago, and the reco rdbreaking attendan e at the last Student Volunteer Convention-all are alIecting the student life of today. Many girls whose friends and

186 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

older sisters served oveJSeas during the war have a great longing to seek positions far aJield and to find their life work in places remote from their previous experience and environment.

Wishing to help these gi rls to locate wisely, the Editor has opened the pages of THE ARROW to a series of letters collected by our Grand Vice - president from our alumn.. residing in foreign lands . Each writer was asked to give a word of constructive advice to the girls who might be thinking of. locating in the land in which she lives and the object behind the plan is to point out what cont ri bution an American can best make to the society in which she expects to establish herself. Our alumn", have responded to the ca ll so generously that it is impossible to use all the material at hand but some of these letters will appear in each issue of the magazine during the current year. In this number we read of foreign conditions under our own flag, in March we shall hear from some of our siste rs who are dwelling in the Orient.

The! Editor wishes to thank all those who have cooperated with her in this plan and trusts it will prove of practical help to those for whom it was especially designed. .

MISS BISHOP'S G IFT of song has been a distinct asset in her dealings with our mountain people and so she is peculiarly fitted to write the article for News From Little Pigeon in this issue. I n March watch for the article by Phyllis Higenbotham, our Pi Beta Phi nurse who will write of her experiences in augurating public health work in Gatlinburg.

A Pi Beta Phi European Tour under the leadership of the Arrow" Editor has been planned for the coming summer. The date of departure will be in July to enable all travelers who wish to attend Convention at Charlevoix , first.

The university bas grown .0 rapidly that it is a very difficult task to keep the chap ter from becoming cumbersome but since our chapter is quite lnrge and strong at present we are trying to choose only the finest girls.

An added test is given to our membership parties by the presence in Toronto of Vivien Kelly, a n"" from Galesburg and Mrs. Scott of California who has visited us before. These American sisters aeem to brin&, us into closer touch with our American chapters who often seem so far away.

Edith Barton, one of our active members. was married in September and is now in England where she upecta to spend a year.

For lome time we have thought that new rule for getting new members would be good for girls' fraternities here, and we decided in the Panbellenic co un cil that there should be a change. The mention of fraternily membership is entirely taboo here until the second semeste r. Unti l then. natural friendships arc to exist among old and new girls.

We are having a rath e r quiet social season because of the strict rrues o( Panhellenic, but as a whole it seems satisfactory.

S. M. U. bas & larger enrollment th:lO ever this yea r. New buildings on the campus, many new men's fraternity houses and two women'. futernity houses (this being the first year the girls have been allowed to have bouses) show that we are doing things! We wanted very much to have a house this year but it was impossible to rent one and not advisable to build. However, we surely mean to have one next year.

We are all extra proud of the S. M. U. "cleven" this year. The Pi Phis attend all the football games and brag about the S. M U. goal line not having been crossed yet. We play the University of Arkansas Saturday at Ihe Dallas fair grounds. (The state fair started October 10 and is to close October 24-)

Louine McLarty, is to be married on October 26 and we all wish Ihe did not live so far away and that the wedding was not during school SO we could attend. But alter the wedding she is to liTe at Arlington. only eightef'e miles from bere.

Newcomb College opened on September 20, with a freshman class of three hundred girls . This was a big increase. Since pledging took place at the end of tcn days, there was mu c h excitement. \V e had a most successful member' ship season, and came o ut splendid l y, with eleven perfectly lovely pledges.

On pledge day the chapter entertained the pledges at a luncheon at the country club. The pledging ceremony was held that night, at the home of Mrs. Stewart. Louisiana Alpha ' s first initiate, whose daughter is one of our present actives.

We held initiation a few days after the opening of college, at the home of Corrine Hopkins. On October 8, a second initiation was held 1ft the home of Fr::ances Hupman f o r Dorothy Felker and Edna Stewart, who returned late.

In spite of our success this year, the fraternity problem at New co mb is still unsettled.

The Univcnity of Washington bas begun a year that promiscs to be big"cr, better, and broader than ever before. Work on the Stadium, of which we spoke last yeu, i. progrellini rapidly. We are lure that tbe new field will be in excellent condition f o r the initial game to be h eld there. Inquiries for seats (or this game, which will be with Dartmouth are already pout-ing in (rom Oregon, Idaho, Alaska and from every part o f W ashington Wh en comp leted, the Stadium will seat 60,000 persons. 1 t is a combination of the Yale Bowl and Harvard Stadium ideas.

A beautiful new building, Philosophy HaU. is abo nearing completion on the campus. This is the second side of lhe proposed Washington Quad The buildings of this group are all to be of Gothic architecture, similar in appearance to tho .e at Oxford.

Several places have been gained in the recent tryouts. Emma Louise Howell is now a membe'r of Sacajawea.. women'. debating society, and Eileen Howell and Ruth Hubbell both made Mask and Quill, nati onal dramatic fraternity.

The highut honor which a girl mny obtain is to become a member of Tolo c lub. Gwendolyn Monteagle is the president of this organitation.

The lawyer system of bidding was used this year. In apite of the large list of new girls on the campus the task was succes sfully concluded in two nnd 3. hllif days Panhellenic has aene on record as favoring this system. We pledged the foltowing: Janice Cole, Seattle, Wash_; Antoi nette Con · nor, Seattle, W as h.; Delia Dunbar, Yakima, Wash ; Helen Garretson, Yakima, Wash. j Gertrude Jansen, Seattle, Wash.; Ervine Liddstone, Bellingham, Wash.; Bonny McAnally, Yalcima.

Twenty Pi Phis from other chapters are here at the university this year. \Ve held an informal meeting and cooky·shine for them October I I. \Ve surely enjoyed meeting our sisters hom other colleges and were glad of the opportunity to hear directly of their chapters.

Our pledges this year are another so ur ce of joy. W e bid ten lovely girls who are entering into everything-from freshman duties to studies and camp u s work-with splendid spirit.

A very splendid paper read b, Dr. Alice Mano 00 the pbysical cOJlditioD of women in industry recently Jives lome very startling fiaures of the poorer bealth of cmen in comparison witb men in limilar politions, fi,urel that every potential u .othe r Ihould be ashamed of. In uplanation of the causes of luch a larm ing lub-no rmal conditions, Dr. Mann statel: "The habia of life of yO:Jng women are lufficie nt to account for most of their dillbilitiel, rememberin, that the habits are the outward upresaion to a great delree, of attitude of mindl 31'" philosophy of life." In ,eneral Dr. Mann be:lieycs that the physical condition of thete women il pr2ctically the average for all women. And sbe IOes 00 to.. Itate that "tbe Iivcs of MOst women are mal adjusted at the present time to an extent pretty exactl y measurable by their bad physical condition. Good pbysical condition il the mOlit ohvioul test "f the vllue of our codel of morall and methods o f living."

It seems to be a rather lenenl opinion amonr those whou "',ork brin'l them into dose contact with yOUDg women that the present-day wallage of their pb,s ical healtb increased alarminlly during the war period and perb"aps is at the t i gbest point Itt this time. Such an experienced observer as Mill Mar,aret Slattery believes that we arc already on tbe road toward our more normal and natural nity in thele maUers. Everyone alrees that the young women answered nobly to th e call of their country, that tbey gave unsparingly o f themselves. It il to be: regretted however, tbat 10 many of our younl women bave failed to recognize the differen ce between ,ivin, wisely and givin, fooli l hly.

We fal, therefore, tbat II women are demanding a "clean life" of men, it is only flir that tbe Dlen in turn and in return Ihould ask for a "sane life" for women. The wives and mothera are as important u the husbands and !.then o! the race We women do not want to be lurpassed by the men in the matter of pbysical and moral health and well· being. \Ve have a grave responsibility not only in bel ping our men mcet the lIandards we have as1r:ed of tbem but in livin, ounelvel 10 that they wilt not le e ua far behind in their "arch for (be beat.

THAT WORD "FRATERNITY"

Every once in a while we have revived aaain the old queltion-"Fraternit, or IO rority, wbieb .han it be?"

There are numerous araument. , pro and con, of course. There alwaya are on .uch a question We have Dot had time to look up the aubject during theae strenuou, da,., but we rather irnaaine that there must' have been some aimil ar arguments long a,o when they ceased giving the delTee of "Mistreas of Enalish Literature," for e.ample. That WII the de,ree on mother ', diploma from Female Collele which used to adorn the walla of father' s. ludy beaide bia "Masler of Science" sbeepskin. The time may come wben "Sorority" ill aeem just I. quaint and old· fashioned. How inconsistent it sounds to say : "The membe,. of tbe sorority were held tOlelher b, fraternal bondJ;"-"lOroria'" would be worse, and " ,ilterly" is as inappropriate as "brotherly." \Vhy ahould we oot be able to aign ou r letten "Fraternally yours" if we wish? There are no other ad.,erba or adjectives that expresa just the aame idea, but bo" impossible for a "Iororil," to use Ihem! ):f we must aay "fraternitie a lu,d sororities" why n ot. " All men and wom." are created equal"? (That ia very fern · inistically presupposina that all meD and women ar , created equal.) Why is it that "the brothers" illina ly include us under auch • aeneral term. but upon occasion insis t that we of the opposite sex musl always be definitely distinauished? "Tell il n ot in Gsth," but we ralher imagine it ia because they are afraid of us Certainly no comp<!rison of men's and women's fratem i liea can be wh olly to the detriment of the latter

Femininely, e are goina to tell you a secret. If you read tbit magazine yery carefully, you will find a number of occasions when " soro rity" is used; we tri ed to edit them all we mined probably and some we admit seemed to call f or no olher word. We have no objections to beina called alumni upon some occasio n and Ilumnz upon others; similarly, there are times when "sorority" seems hetter. But we do in.is t that "fraternity" is the broader term and as suc h is all·inclusive.
