NUMBER 4

On March 25, 1924, occurred the d ea th of one of the beloved Fo und ers of Pi Beta Phi, Ada Bruen Grier. As an expression of th e fraternity's deep sorrow, the Gran d Council announced a period o f official mourning beginning o n t h e morning of April 19 and co ntinuin g until the even in g of Founders' Day, Ap ril 28.

The memo ry o f thi s sple ndi d woman will always liv e to inspire Pi Beta Phi on its u pward way.

ADA BRU>:N GRIER

Ada Bruen Gri e r wa s horn in Bloomfield, O range Co., New Jersey. In ea rl y life she moved with her father 's family to vic inity of Monmouth, 111. Af t er finishing grade schoo l she attended th e preparato ry Academy, ente rin g Monmouth Co ll ege in 1866. grad uating in the class of 1869.

1'IIE AUROW OF 1'1 B ,.A PUI

After spending a few years as a pastor, Dr. Grier was elected to a profes so r ship in the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary and a little later was made president of that in st ituti on. Dr. Crier's s uccess in the pastorate and in the School of the Proph : ts was in no s mall measure due to the influ e nce for good whi ch was so manifest in Mrs. Crier's life . She was ind eed a "helpmeet" fo r her husband in his respo·n sible position.

She wa s the m ot her of a family of four children, three sons and one daughter. One of th e sons, Dr. James H. Crier, succeeds his father as a professor in th e Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. The daughter is the wife of a minister It wa s h e r privilege to mini s ter to her mother during her last illne ss.

After the death of Dr. Crier in 19 18, Mrs. Crier mad e h e r home with her daughter, Mrs. E.1rl Miller, of Cermantown. Coming to Philadelphia she wa s soon iclentifi o::: d with th e aiu1l1na-e of Pi neta Phi. Her health not being rugged, she wa s seldom permitted to attend the meetings but her int e rest neve r lagged , especially in the work of the Settlement School. She eage rly looked forward to the coming o f THe ARROW that she mi gh t learn what was being done at Gatlinburg.

A fter a lo n g illness she died on Tu esday. March 25, at th e home of her daughter and her body wa s taken to Pitt sb urg h, her form e r hom ': . and laid t o rest in the Un ionda le C?metery beside that 0 f her b e loved hu s band .

In TI-I£ ARROW. of Jun e 19 17. upon the fiftieth allt11VCrsary of Pi neta Phi, Mrs. Grier wrote :

In the ta.ll of '66, ( entered Monmouth Co ll ege. Lihhi e Brook Gaddis was my roommate and my fri e nd. H e r fri e nd s hip is one of the bright es t spo ts in my memory ana the warmth of it bas remained through all the years . These Monmouth days were among the happiest of my life. My, but w e had good time s ! Not that it was all play by any m eans; tor co llege meant work, too, tn t.hese ea rly tim es. The literary soc i eties. with their open m eeti ngs . exhibitions , and contests filled a large r pla ce in college life then than now . On e of the greatest of the eve nts. to twelve girls, during that co ll ege year was the founding of th e I. C. Sorosls. April 28. 1867. Then , 8S now , a first esse nllal or a frat e rnity was the oln . \Va had

Quite an exciting time in choosing a suitable badge. 'Ve wanted the most altraqive, of course, and we wanted to keep our plans secret. 80 there were many "star chamber" Rssembllng" and numerous quiet foregatherlngs at the jewelers. Finally. the "arrow" was decided upon as the most desirable symbol for our clan.

None can tell in full the joys of those years we spent at Monmouth. As the days have come and gone since, the memories of t h e friends there have never been lost.. Even many new friendships formed In other places and at dU:rerem Urnes have never rep l aced these of tbe old I. Cs.

I have watched with Interest your progress, have looked with keen pleasure on tbe pictures of your fair members, have admired the beautiful homes of the PiPbls. and bave been specially pl eased by tbe work you have been doing In the Southland . It has already been a rea l joy to me that r had a IitLIe part In the founding (' . Pi Bela Phi, and I wish for you all continued prosperity and success In alt the work undertaken.

The Ea stern Conference o f Pi Beta Phi, held in Was hingto n , D. C., April 11-12 , 1924, was the largest gathering of fraternity women ever held. Nati o nal in its personnel, althoug11 held in the far East, a group of 1300 women met. not one of wh o m came except of her own free will, and not one of whom had a vote. since the body was not legi s lative. Their purpose wag to di s cu ss those increased opportunities for se rvi ce which have ari sen recently with the amazing growth of the fraternity Their accompli s hment was a new and broader concepti o n of th e respo ns ibility o f every member, through her h e ritage as a Grade A American woman.

On Thursday morning, when the in flux of Pi Phis began, it was clear that the li st of 800 reservations would n ot be adequate, and before the conference closed, approximately 1350 wearers of the arrow, from every state in the Union, were in the capital.

Registration and a contin uous reunion which was one of the 1110st delightful fe.:1.tures of the confere n ce were held in the spacious Red Room of the \ViIlard, where organ conce rt s were given each aftern oon. On the tenth £Ioor the ball room ser\'ed as th e conference hall. .\t the south end an exhibit of Settlement School products was shown by Mrs. Stark, and the Grace Coolidge po rtrait reproductions were so ld for the benefit of the School. Sightseeing was intermittent, yet continuous. The tim'! wa s all too short to do justice to \\ 'ashington's historic, cultural , artistic, and natural charm. Expressly in honor of the conference the hundreds of cherry tre :: s fringing the river burst into luxuriant .bloom. Chief among the s ightsee ing trips were the in formal recepti n at the Library of Congress and the pilgrimage to 1\1t. Vernon. At the former, on Thursday evening, Mrs. I [arvey W. Wiley (An na Kelton, Columbia A), was h ostess, and sightseeing groups were taken through the building. The trip to Mt. Vernon was planned hy the acti\'e chapter. Electric trains carried 800 along the historic Potomac to the home of George Washington . Lunches . packed by Columbia A were eaten o n the way . Pi Phis carried their homage t o the shrine of the Father of his Country. On the lovely rolling lawns many groups were photographed. \Veather-perfect The s u ccess of the White Hou se group picture was due to the cloudy sky of the previous day, but the brilliance of Saturday was ideal for viewing the state l y mansion of Washington

Many lingered in the city for seve ral days after the conference, held by its sunny welcome. On Sunday afternoon those who remained were g ue sts at a charming tea at the National

Women's Democratic Club, where Mrs J. Borden Harriman received most graciously.

The festivities began on Thursday evening, when th e Red Room at the Willard was crowded by incoming Pi Phis, and old friend s met again. The new pledges of Columbia A gave th eir clever musical comedy. The girls had written it themselves, and had formerly given it before the active chapter as one of their pledge duties. Preceding the musical comedy, piano solos and a pianologue were given by two of the pledges. During th e evening Mr . Cass sang several baritone solos . Between acts 0 f the musical comedy the spotlight was t1lrown upon various pocsons, including Mrs. Stebbins, author of the "Anthem," who led its singing at the piano, Mrs. Lynn, author of "Ring, Ching. Ching ," and best of all upon the beautiful, white-haired Founders, Mrs. S o ule and Mrs. Turnbull, who were the inspiration of the co nference They even tripped with the rest to !\It. Vernon

The first business session, held Friday morning, was called to o rder by Emma Harper Turner. Miss Turn er introduced Em ili e Margaret White, Columbia A, director of the music, who led in the "Anthem." Fronl that time it was a singing conference . Miss Turner welcomed the visitors "home to yo ur own and the possibilities of the future." Mrs. Duncan, Conference Guide, escorted to the platform the two Founders present. During the round tables, various Grand officers presided in turn, beginning with Miss Onken, Grand President.

The opening ro und table discussion was conducted by the Grand Vice-President, Anna Robinson Nickerson, on the Reorga1l;zatlo1l of the AI,,,,,,,,,. Deparlme"l. She made clear that the increased size of the alum nae association rendered the present sys tem of government inadequate; at the same time she emphasized making no change which would loosen the tie between the alumnae and the active chapters Dr. May L.

Kate Miller and Winifred Hill Maxfield emphasized the fact that these plans in no w ay suggested a severance from the active chapters but rather an added bond of interest, and (xpressed their belief that the clubs would ri,e to th e increased financial output when they under stood its need. The round table closed with a motion presented by Miss Turner. that the confe rence endo rse the recommendations of the Ne w Yo rk C it y Club that a committee be organ ized, with representation from th e New York Club, to work o ut a reorganization of the II B <I> alumna e department and report at the next convention .

as soon as the Grand Council can act. Miss Onken said on behalf o f the national officers that work for II B has been a work of love and that the reason Grand Council was able to accomplish so much was the cooperation of all committees.

The last round table of the morning. A[",,,"ae Club COllstill/lions} was in charge of Marion Baker, who said that the committee on an alumnae club constitut ion was finding its work difficult because of the varied sizes of clubs. Mrs. Cle.:"lver l in of the constit uti on of the New York Alumnae Club, referred to it as a very elastic and simpl! arrangement. Some of its unique features are: two types of members ( life and active); election of only half of its officers each year; nominations from the !Ioor always in order. Florence Clum Temple gave great encouragement to small clubs by rehearsing the achievements of the Lancaster Club. She sugg <sted two grades of members: active and associate, with different dues. She express ' d her willingness to forward sections of the mailing list to clubs desiring to locate members residing in their di stri c ts. The round table closed with the reading of the proposed constitution of the Indianapoli s Club, particulars ahout which may b: had by writing to the Indianapolis Club

On Friday afternoon the first discussion was led by Anna Cravens Rott l who disc uss "' o an alumnae initiation ceremony designed to interest especially younger women jusn out of college. A demonstration was presented by a group from Indiana n. Dr. Harvey Wiley, former editor of Good Housekeeping, an authority on nutrition , and a II <I> husband, gave a delightful talk on Health. Constructive health programs were outlined by Dr. Edith Matzke in a most helpful way.

The first speaker of the Saturday morning session, Edna Wood Miller, Beta, Prov ince Vice-president, presented the National Vie'wpoint. She stressed the importance of alumnae clubs realizing their relationship to a national organization. To many alumnae who had not been privileged to attend recent conventions, the next discussion-the Settlement School-was an opportunity to visualize the great work the fraternity is doing. Slides had been made with considerable trouble and donated by Mr. and Mrs, Stark. The clever manner in which Mrs. Stark commented upon the slides

added to their interest. Views of the beautiful country. of the transformed hoy!) and girb. of the !'Iclf-s..1.crificing and women who have ti;rown themselves whole-heartedly into the work. evoked an enthusiastic respon,e. Stark spoke forcefully of the earnest appeal which the Settlement School is making to n B 4>. The time has come to tnlarge th'! work and send girls trained in the school Qut into the districts to teach. There is an enorm o u s opportunit y for increased usefulness if on ly funds are available. Frances Carpenter Cnrtilj then a number t, f way:, and mean' f ()T mOll y for the Settl ment S..:hpu1. obtainable from the elel'eland Alumnae C luh .

Mrs. Curtis also urged the need of teachers for the Settlem en t School. By courtesy of Secretary \Vallace. three Department of Agriculture films were shown, including a s ig ht see in g trip about \\'ashington and a corn-husking bee on Secretary \Va lla ce's farm. ?o.1r. Perkins. head of the motion pictu re bureau of the Department of i\griculture, arranged and showed the slides. L..1.ck of time prevented a full discussion of the sugg ested monthly ARROW. Turnbull mentioned the decreased size. increased expense, and the difficulties of collecting" material. She ad\'ised dub s ubscriptions to the Bulletin for news purpOSES and the retention of the ARROW in its present forl11. Turner spoke in favor of a monthly paper for the sake of the increased interest it would arouse. No decision was made or action taken. Cook's absence prevented the discussion of Chapter Standards and the sp lendid con f erence closed with th e r eport of the r eso lutions co mmitte e, Grace] fancher Beck, Chairman.

To the alumnae in attendance on these sess ion s. the Eastern Conference was, in Inan y ways. a revelation. Although th!! conference wa s advisory and not legi s lative , everyone had the satisfactory feeling that discussions had resulted in dear-cut plans. Alumnae gained an added respect for national officers when they obsen·cd the speed and skill with which they led rOllnd table discussions and guided business. It was refreshing to see a Congress in session where things wefe accomplished. Alumnae

were im pressed, also, with the national viewpoint. Voices from Texas, Cali fornia, Massachusetts, showed how far-reaching the fraternity is. It was thrilling, too , to see the appreciation displayed of the women who were and are serving in so many capacities. The Eastern Conference sent those who attended, home with a know l edge that as a lumn ae they still have distinct r: bligatiol1s and a sha re in the growth and work of IT B 4>.

The socia l functions of the confe rence included a recept ion by IT <I> members of the Congressiona l group on Friday. 'he tea at the National \V omen's Democratic Club, reunion luncheons , :lnd dinners; parties of all kind s, and, of course, th e and the banquet.

The reception at the Congress iona l C lu b on Friday erening had a peculiar interest, for while the clubs of one city are more or less r epetiti ons of the cl ubs of anot her, there is in the wh o le United States on ly one Congressional Club.

Because the Willard limited the number t f) be se rved t o 800, an overf lo w was h eld s imultaneously at the Ral eigh lT ot el for a n oth e r 150 . Af t e r dinner was se r ved th e guests at the Raleigh ca me to the Willard for th e program.

The banquet opened with the s in g ing of "Speed Thee , My Arro w, " led by E mili e Margaret White, Vice-President of Gamma Pro\'ince, with Martha Waring o f th e Washington Alumnae Club at the piano.

Pi Ph i mothers and patronesses. To the largest gath ering ever known in all fraternity history, everyone came voluntarily-not as a delegate sent by an active chapter or alumnae club. Mrs. A lf ord closed with a hearty invitation from the Washington Alumnae Club to come again. She introduced Anna Robinson Nickerson, Grand Vice-President , as the toastmistress of the evening.

Mrs. Nickerson beautifully stated the allegory of the "Pi Phi Tree," and introduced first May Lansfield Keller, who paid tribute to the F ounders as uThe Heart." Miss Keller, quoting Joyce Kilmer's poem "Trees," declared that the tree was sound at heart because the Founders have ever had in view the id ea of service--service to the community, service to humanity . She proposed a toast to the Founders.

Amy Burnham Onken, Grand President, contin ued the allegory, saying that the "Elixir" by which the tree is nourished is the re verence with which all P i Phis che ri sh the ideals of the Founder s. Fifty-seven years ago twelve co ll ege girls founded the first fraternity for women. Today, 15 ,OClO wom en turn to do them reverence. Miss Onken concluded, "Pi Beta Phi is what s he is today becau se the women of 1867 have served her so continuously; what she is tomorrow, depends upon us."

Anna Waring , president of Columbia A, responded, as a r epresentat ive lea f u pon the tree, to the toast, "The Whisperings of the Leaves." A leaf owes its existence to the tree which bears it, but a leaf also owes its duty t o the tree to pe rf o rm certain reactions, The leaves should send back to the tr ee nourishment to furnish ot her leaves which are to come. Where there are imperfect leaves, they are more marked than the perfect leaves; therefore, there must be but one aim among the Pi Phi branchesto seek the highest and best for others as well as for themselves.

To Columbia A was presented by Elsa Schlicht Conners, for the Grand Council, a gift as a recognition on the part of the Conference of the hosp itality extended in Washington. It was the beautiful win e-co lor ed velvet curtains and the silver-blue cords that draped the portrait of Mrs. Coolidge in the White House, now to be preserved because of national historical interest. Mrs. Conners said that the n colors had been seen in chapter halls

and banquet rooms, but never before draped over the portrait of a n sister, now "First Lady of 'fhe Land." Anna Waring received the gift on behalf of Columbia A, after which that chapt ' r sang its two songs in honor of the founding of Co lumbia A thirtyIi ve years ago.

Grace Lass Sisson, fanner Grand President, resumed the tre e allegory by responding to "In the Shade." She sa id that she could never fad e away into the shade because the New York Alumnae Club had given her a diploma making her a life m: mber. She spoke of Pi Phis who had achieved national recognition. S h e quoted Browning's poem, with the line "The star that dartles the red and the blue "

Mrs. Nickerson then introduced Emma Harper Turner, former Grand President and Honorary Chairman of the Eastern Conference Committee, as "Our Forester," explaining that a tree must have regular care, must have the soil enriched, must have growth assured. Miss Turner responded, saying that the forester knew that if the saplings were given tender care and caref ul pruning it would grow. Miss Turner sa id that the forester, like John on Patmos, co uld see the vision of the "Tree of Life whose leaves are for the healing of the nations."

As Miss Turner took her seat, Vibert Duncan, Convention Guide, presented to her a corsage bouquet as a token of love from the Washington Alumnae Club.

Mrs. Nickerson then proposed a toast to Pi Phi's love liest blossom-Grace Coolidge, who had thought of so many kindly things to do for Pi Phis during their stay in Washington. Mrs. Nickerson announced that, according to custom, Mrs. Coolidge would present to the White House when she left its wall s, the white satin gown whi ch she had worn at her first officia l fun ction there, and upon it would rest , like a drop of dew, the Pi Phi arrow which she ha s worn s ince she was a freshman in college. A group of Mrs. Coolidge's closest friends in the fraternity had presented to her a diamond set arrow for her own keeping, when they were received by her the day before the Conference. As a fitting sequel to this toast all sang "The Letters That Pleased

Then Mrs. A lf o rd pres e nt ed to May Brodhead Wallace a si lve r mesh bag. given by the \ Vashington A lumnae Club in appreciation of 1\1 rs. \Vallace's g raciou s help in arran gin g for the Conference. Mrs. Wallace's r esponse

was: "I love you one and all and I thank you for your loving thought." It was Mrs. Wallace's generosity that furnish ed the great clusters of wine carnations and white tulips for the many tables.

As the final speaker on the "Crown" of the Pi Phi Tree. Mrs. Nickerson introduced Carrie Chapman Cau, I owa r, who succeeded Susan Il. Anthony as presid ont of the Woman's Suffrage League of and as a recent president of the International \V oman's Suffrage Association, has spoken in every continent, except r\ustralia. In opening her speech, ?\1rs. Catt said: liMy subject ha.;; heen announced as a message to col1ege WOmen. This is a mistake. 1t is a message to my sisters in n B <I), whom I love ." Mrs. Catt asked the assemblage to forget that they were trees and to remember that they were human beings. She rema rked Victor I fug o had said that the Nineteenth Century was the cen tury of women, but the Twentieth Century is preeminently woman's ce ntury. for this is the time she receives her reward in the wor k dOlle by the pioneers. "Since everything is open to wom en. if you have an ambition. follow it; if YO lt have a work to do. do it.

A lth ugh sixty-seven nations ha\'e g i"en votes to wom en, equaJ with men, there are twent y-four nations who granted the franchi se before America responded."

This is the day of intelligence ratings. It is not yet J...-nOWIl whether men or WOITIen have a greater number of A minds, but it is known that on ly those who have A minds o r high R mind s eve r get through college. As co ll ege women Pi Phis have A mind s. A woman with an A mind can keep house and do it we11 and vet haye tiJ11e for a ca reer . She c.:,n bring up a 1arge family and yet have time for a ca ree r. Every 11 (J) will vote, but sh e must know how t o vote. Mrs. Catt said that she did not propose that Pi Phis become a political flo c k, but since they have inherited rights and privileges that othe r w om ':' n have not had, the more responsibility re sts upo n th em.

Referring to the 1200 presenr Mrs. Catt said that there were enough Pi Ph is in the room to make over the world. A lth ough she had spoken before large gatherings of w omen throughout the wo rld she had never looked upon such a gathering of young women. "\Vhile we Pi Phis are all very nice and ve ry wi se," she

said, Hit is not f or u s to congratulate o ur se lves , but we s ho uld go home with the thought th at there i s no escape from duty. We sho uld go home with a purJX>Se to l eave the world better than we found it. What we do depends on conscience, trend, ed ucati on and environment." Mrs. Cat t dec l ared that s h e had found members 0 f II B 4t in every land , in South America, and in Asia, yet she had n eve r heard a tale o f any member that was not e ntirel y cr edi tabl e and hono rable .

Mrs. Nickerson bade all take the spirit of the Eastern Conference from th e founders, the officers and h ono red guests. Then in symbolism of this she lighted a cand le, and turning to th ose on her right and lef t, with thei r own ca ndl es li ghted th eirs in success ion, and they in turn, passed o n the flam e down the long line.

THE PRESENTATION OF THE PORTRAIT OF MRS. COOLIDGE

In the faIl of 1923, when in a letter to Anna Robinson Nickerson, Grand Vice-President, Katharine Tower Barnes, Michigan B, broached the idea of presenting to the White House a portrait of Mrs. Coolidge, there began a delightful new chapter in II D oj) history. It culminated on April 11 in the now nationheralded presentation to the White House of the beautiful portrait of our First Lady.

Mrs. Nickerson took up the idea with enthusiasm, presented it to the other members of the Grand Council who unanimously voted for it, and willingly accepted the responsibility of sponsoring the subject when asked by Miss Onken to do so. Because Mrs. Nickerson has l ong been a persona l friend of Mrs. Coolidge, she was able to assist wonderfUlly in this fraternity project. She wrote to Mrs. Coolidge that Pi Beta Phi would be proud to present a portrait of the first wearer of the golden arrow to become the First Lady of the Land. Upon hearing that "Mrs. Coolidge would be deeply touched and greatly pleased to receive such a mark of affection and recognition from her coll ege fraternity," Mrs. Nickerson wrote immediately to May Brodhead Wallace for suggestions as to artists and other details.

Mrs. Wallace at once talked the matter over with Mrs. Coolidge and found that at that time Mr. and Mrs. Howard Chandler Christy were guests at the White House as he was painting portraits of the President and Mrs. Coolidge. Mrs. W'allace had a conference with Mrs. Christy who at once became heartily interested; and later with Mr. Christy and arrangements were made for II B oj) to purchase the portrait of Mrs. Coolidge. Information was prepared under the supervision of Mrs. Nickerson and sent to every club and chapter in o rd er that every individual II oj) might have an opportunity to help in the purc hase of the portrait.

Would that every member of II B oj) might have assembled in famous Peacock Alley of the Willard Hotel at four on the afternoon of April 11, en route to the White House. The

Mrs . Coolidge stands on the White House lawn , with the White House (;Qllie, Rob Roy, by her s ide , and the south front of the Exec uti ve Mansiotl in the background.

The Army Aide, Colonel Clarence O. Sherrill, S uperinte ndent of Public Buildings and Gro und s and Cus t od ian of the White II o use, r ece ived the pict ur e for th e U nited States. He said :

"The graceful act of PI Beta Phi Frater nity comme morated lJ ere today in the pr esentatio n of thts portrait of Mrs. Coo lid ge to the Wblte Hou se to r emai n h ere fo r all time. for th e present aod future generatioos to admire, is a fitting occasion for our grati fi cation that tb e offitlal co ll ectio n or the White House i s to be thus assured of a s pl en did portrait o r Mrs. Coo lid ge to add to thos e that are now b e re.

"UnfortunaetIy our forefathers, or rath e r our foremoth e rs, hav e not. bee n tn all cases so thoughtful as are th e members of your illustriou s organization. In looking up the records of the portrait s of the different Urst ladies ot the land, we find that ther e are only se ve n ot th e e ntir e Dumb er whose portraits DOW adorn th e walls ot th e WhiLe Hou se.

" It will occur to each of yo u, as It do es to me, tbat it Is most deplorable that a handsom e portrait of eac h of the succee ding first ladles of the land ha s not bee n secured as a 9art ot the permanent record of th e various administrations will c h have controlled and have don e 80 mu c h in forming our Am e ri ca n history.

Then, as Mrs. Nickerson put it, to express a littl e of what was in their hearts , the whole assemblage, with Mrs. Coo li dge joining as heartil y as the rest, sang together the Pi Beta Phi Anthem, whi c h will hold for every person present a new s ig nificance.

TilE MROW OF PI BETA PUI

As the Conference closed, the pride of the city, its wonderful cherry blossoms, burst into bloom.

Distinguished for its crystal clearness, the simple speech of our Grand President, Amy Onken, put into words what was swell;ng in the heart of every Pi Beta Phi present at the unveiling of the picture of Grace Coolidge, who stands for all that we hold m os t dear.

"Oh, there's May Keller!" A lov ing cry of recognition trailed the petite President Emeritus through the Conference, fro m even the privates in the ranks , who dare greet her thus familiarly.

Some statistics:

There is not room to give even the names of chapters holding reunions. At least 70 did so.

There were at least SO 1. Cs. at the Conference.

Among large delegations were 16 from Oklahoma, S3 from Pittsburgh, 13S from Baltimore, 64 from Pennsylvania B, 68 from Ohio B, 76 from Cleveland, 290 from Washington , D. C., 100 % from Maryland A, New York A, 30 from Massachusetts A, and of course, everybody from Vermont B!

SOO persons were expected!

947 persons were actually at the banquet, the largest wo men·s g r o up ever at the New Willard.

800 lunches for Mt. VernOn were put up by 30 Co lumb ia A active members.

1487 at the Congressional Club-ZOO not Pi Phis . 1301 in the Wlllte House picture.

1200 Pi Ph;. gave Mrs. Coolidge the grip.

An int erested figure was Mrs. Howard Chandler Christy. She says that Mr. Christy accounts Mrs. Coolidge' s picture his most successful portrait.

Just before the banquet, Mrs. Catt broadcasted from station \II/RC, Radio Corp. of America, her speech delivered again later in the evening.

ADVERTISING AS A PROFESSION FOR WOMEN

GRACE SHALLENBERGER

Nebraaka B is like picking a husband. White it is essential to be fO)ld of him, there are other things a prudent girl will consider.

Wh e n the advertis ing b ee wa s first buzzing in my bonn et , a number o f successful people in this alluring fie ld were kind enough to advi se with me about it . They were mos t gracious about talking but everyone wanted to expound th e principles of the great art to me Now I wa s already saturated with theories from the many good books to be found in any public library. But the thing I didn't lind in books a nd hoped to get I rom

them was advertising in terms of personal experience. So I feel the best way to present advertising as a profession for women is to tell what happened to me and let others decide for themselves whether they could stand the ga ff.

Without any selling experience, without any writing experience, I induced the advertising manager of a department store to hire me as a copy writer. The first morning when I punched the clock and took refuge behind my Under wood, advertising se?m "d to me the most mysterious and complex invention conceived by the mind of man. My kind hearted boss came around and said, "Now, just let things un fold!" He meant to soothe and quiet me but in reality he para1yzed me. However was this intricate mechanism to become comprehensible to me? I yearned for a guide thru these troublous uncharted seas that were threatened with tidal waves of temper and typhoons of wrath at any moment. But instead I was left t o catch on as best I cou ld . It is a hard way to learn but the quickest I believe.

Many people ask me about school courses in advertising. I didn't take one because as I pointed out to the manager who tried to get rid of me by suggesting that I first take a course in advertising, at the end of the course I would have to start just where I would without the training, only I would have lost that much time. However, if you are still in school, take all the advertising courses you can because they are of value. I have been a diligent student of books on advertising. Some merit great devotion, othe r s , are only worth flirting with . The big work of ed ucati on in advertising is the s tudy of the ads themselves. Constant reading and critical comparison of a few of the best craftsmen in your particular field is the most direct road to a cqu iring good taste and judgment in advertising. My first winter in advertising I never put out the light for the night until I had looked in the N e" York Times at that days ads. for the three or four stores I had c h osen as my models . .

The first eye opener I had was to learn that advertising is se lling not writing. I want to make a big fuss o\'er this beca use it is an illusion t o whic h college girls will be particularly susceptible . No matter h ow scintillating your head line, how graphic the illustratiun, how gripping your clincher, if the merchandise doesn't se ll ,

THE ARROW or PI BETA PRJ

as an advertiser you are a dud. A department store is a place wher e you l ea rn thi s with especial clarity because its re.:mlts are more easily c hecked than many other kinds of advertising. An interview with the c ash register each evening wi11 s um IIp success as an advertiser very neatl y. Su c h interview ... arc very healthy for budding advertising geniu s.

Many people have ideas similar to my early noti o n thal when there is a big day in blou ses to beat , Ole ad writer s its down and invents some sort of a grammatical legerdemain f o r the ev.. paper that will thro ng the aisles the next mOTning with eager to battle for the newe st thin g in tuck-in s and overblouses. While in reality the respo n se d epends on th e price related to the style and quality of the garment, your co mpetitors price, seaso nability, previou s sa les, the weather on the day of the sa le, wheth er suits are dead o r not thi s spring and so on. It is easy t o see that senten ce rh y thm is a minor matter co mpar ed with sy nchronizing all these elements to produce the ma x imum cash result s.

You mu st have bef o re you the constant study of what makes people buy and as you learn what these 1"Ter s nrc. you press down on them in the copy you write. Walter Dill Scott says advertising is influencing people. That makes a foo l proof definiti o n for, in a everything in fluen ces people. there f o re everything is advertising. In a broad way this is true. But the space huy e r who employs you as an advertiser is going to expect you to influence peopl e so that 3% of his sales spe nt in advertising will increase the volume of hi s bu s ines s 15 0/0' There are many kinds o f talent ll sed in advertising-skill with with pictures and with typography but the thing fo r which real m o no), will be paid is the abiJty to go into a business and increase its 5.;-des.

The next windy notion t o be deflated i s the wide spread belief that people in advertising make big money. M os t wom e n of whom I know began as copy writ ers at ab out $18 a week. The best salary I have heard o f for a copy writ e r was when Wanamakers tried to hire a talented writer from one of the State street sto res in Chi cago f o r $75 a week On the average women in adverti s ing are paid about the sa me as they are in teac hing, secretarial or newspaper wo rk The fact that huge s um s are spen t in advertising whereby merchant s and newspapers profit enormously is

confused with the rewards of those who create the advertising. The latter yo u will find are on ly mode r ate ly paid. Like newspapers, advertising seems to have a fascination which makes people who are in it willing to accept smal ler salaries. Thi s is a bad thing both for the individual and the profession.

I have always felt a woman is Last handicapped by her sex in reta il advertising. I f the manu fa cturer of tractors res ists the notion that the vi ril e verbs from a female fountain p en ma y be as dead ly as th e ma le, in heralding th e charms o f a Waterloo Boy, yo ur load is just that l11uch heavier. But no o ne can dispute a woman's natural fitn ess for her merchan di se and her market in th e department store field.

Although w om en are filling exec utiv e positions mo re and more, the head s o f th e advertising d epartme nt s in the big N e w York and Chicago sto r es . with few excepti o n s, are m en. Th ey will con tinu e t o be so for a long time in my o pini o n. O n th e o ther hand, in ebraska, m y home s tate, the thr ee larges t s to r es in bo th Omaha and Lincoln have women advertising manage rs where a few yea r s ago they had men.

Anyone wh o goes int o advertising will soo n find o ut it is hard work. In the fir s t six we ek s after I be came advertising director , I never left the sto re before seven in the evening. Sundays, at home, I w orked o n my financial budget. Beside s long ho urs your wo rk is.a co ntinual race against the g reat s teel presses that m u st have th e ir co py with the setting of each s un . They won ' t wait for you, so if you ge t behind th ere is n othing to do but press down on the acce lerator that r egulates the outpou r ing of your owu nervous energy. Evening must find the copy neatly pinned in its envelope whether there is any juice left in the little gray brain ce lls or not.

But getting yo u r own genius in hand is the si mp lest part of producing advertising. Each brain child has so many step-fathers t o satisfy. T h e president wants more white space around the sig c ut. The merchandise manager declares the price fig ur es are too ... s mall. The buyer think s hi s ad should have had t o p position. The artist s ulks becau se the dark c u ts are ou t of ba lance. Th e pri nt er cu rses beca u s e there i s too much body co py. Chang es mu st be made to each conception. You battle bravely for your darlini

TUE ARROW or PI BETA PRJ

with that fierce protective instinct of a m o the r but sometimes you scarcely recognize yo ur offspring when you m ee t it face to face in the first edition.

Then why do people adore advertising if it is full of so mu ch grief? Well, everybody likes to make things. vVe all get a swe lling in the ch est out of the feeling, "I did it." I liked taking fifty or a hundred words and arranging them in a pattern that interested people enough to make them jump on the car and come down to our store th e next morning. I liked to sit down in front of a layout board with my cuts and b locks of copy and push them around until they worked into a de sign that pleased a picture sense innate in the simpl est of us. It is the response to a universal desire to make things-whether it be a paragraph, a double spread or a cathedra l. No matter how many proof envelopes you hav e opened, each m o rning brings a renewed concern in seeing how you r stu ff looks in type.

If you are curious about men and their motives you wi11 find advertising a great laboratory in human psychol ogy where your experiments are conducted with real people, real money and real merchandise . The results, as shown in your office records, make a text book more entertaining than any to be found in co llege. It a Hords a splendid schoolin g in business fundamenta ls . All the contacts scattered over the field of buying and se llin g have threads of interest that converge in the advertising office. Here with a bird's eye view of the whole field, the advertiser is privileged t o analyze the factors which net the best res ults .

Knowing how things are made, as a part of selling, opens up new worlds, some as fascinating as those in the tales of the Arabian nights. To know that li ve fish scales give the lovely opa lcsence of artificial pearls, that every knot in your hair net is tied by a Chinese girl's deft fingers, how the camels hair for your sport coat is co ll ected f rom the sand where the came l sheds hi s hair when he lies down for the night-all give of romantic land s wh ere fancy may delight to travel.

An important phase of a profession are the people with whom it associates you. Advertising will introduce you to dynamic captains of industry and to dull directors of boards. It will show you amazingly ignorant men who sell thousands of dollars worth of

merchandise. It will acquaint you with newspaper 'men o f capacity and some of decidedly small cal ibe r . As to the advertising people them selves, there is of course some dead wood but among the li ve ones, you will meet some of the keenest minds in business today. It offe r s stimulating contact with minds that are flexible and sympathetic to all the new and interesting phenomenon going on in the w orld.

A good test for a co ll ege gir l to apply in selecting he r field of wo rk is t o look ahead ten yea r s and see wh ere her ch o ice will put her . Advertising will put her in a field that is expe ri encing eno rm o us expa n s ion . O UT national genius. is for business in production, in buying and sellin g, the Yankee is s econd to none. Advertising as th e tool o f the producer and th e selle r is go in g to sha re in thi s g r eat g r o wth. If yo u are lookin g for a place in the business s un , go into advertising, but don't blame me if som etim es it gets t oo hot f o r you.

Spring!

-Robbins, April showers, saucy da££odils, wriggling earth worms, and constant longing for the lake with its clean, blue loveliness calling us on to the dunes. away from the tall, gray towers, away with the friends we have made, to the hit" of the sky and the water. The same lake that we saw last fall, heavenly on moonlight nights and wonderful when the white caps dashed about so boisterously on cold, winter days. Why then, this added c harm in sp ring ? It is the freshness of things that makes the hlue even clearer than before.

The year's w ork is closing, and from all the melody of song and co lor there stands o ut this narrow strip of blue which will stay on after the soft shades have faded from the reflections of a vivid sunset. Call it wliat you will-the symbol of a friendship, a poem or a ca reer. It remains that intangible something which endures long after books are closed and degrees are forgotten.

-Silver blue, whose complement is deep. deep wine .

THE PRESIDENTS

ALPHA PROVINCJ1;

Upon completing her preparatory education in her home town, Petrolea, Ontario , Canada, Jean C. McQueen, our new president of Alpha Province, ente red the Un ivers ity of Toronto

in the fall of 1916, enrolling in the mod ern language course. She became a w ea r e r of the arrow during that semester.

Owing to a series of OV/!Twhelming and unf ortunate events, however. she retired from coll ege for the two succeeding yea rs, reentering with the class of 1922. Throughout h e r cour se, Jean's innate modesty and unassuming tendencies were ever apparent in her re lu ctance to be in the lime li g ht. In h er final year , as a member o f her class executive and chai rman of the social service committee (du'f'in g the latter's chaotic and exper imental stage) she proved her intrinsic value in executive ability, judgment and the real qualities of l eadership.

Subsequent to grad ua tion, Jean has taken a short course in household sc ience at Macdonald Hall, G uelph, Ont., and is at present dividing her time between the study of music, for which she has cons id erab le talent , and her new duties as Province President.

It was also her good fortune to be one of the P i Phis who accompanied Mrs. Rugg on her first Pi Beta Phi European Tour.

The Western Conference of Associated Women St udents, held at the Univers ity of Ar izona, Apri l 10-12, brought together forty girls, r epresenti n g t wenty-three western colleges and universIties. Their purpose was to consider the problems of women st udents . Constructiv e criticism and valuable suggest ions were given on qu estio ns of vital interes t to eve ry co ll ege w oman.

At the same time, the Western Conference of Deans of Women was also held at Arizona. Many p r oblems simila r to those of the students w er e discussed b y the Deans. A joint sess ion of th e Deans and the Assoc iated Women St ud ents' delegates was held , at which "Vocational Guidance," "Coope rati o n o f Faculty and Students," and "The Honor System" were cons id ered.

The way in whi ch th e various subj ects were presented wa s immen se ly helpful. Each t opic wa s assigned t o a particular delegate, who gave a repor t o n it .

Chapters and clubs who want to have "something di fierent" in their Settlement School programs will be interested in some recent plays of Percy MacKaye. A cycle of Kentucky mountain plays, of which "This Fine-Pretty World," produced in New York last winter, and HNapoJcoll Crossing the Rockies," in the Celltu.ry magazine for April, 1924, a l·e examples, is the literary result of a summer and autumn spent in the Kentucky mountains among the Southern Highlanders.

An interesting article in the February 10u-lIal of Soc'ial Hygiene by Edith Hedges Matzke. New York shows what can be done through a voluntary health program on the part of undergraduates. Dr. Matzke stresses the need for the rig ht attitude of mind towards the problem of health, as the fundamental basis for any health. Her experience at the University of Mi ssouri with the variolls organized g r oups (soror ity and other) plainly shows that, given an und erstanding of lif e and so obta inin g the correct attitude towards health, the college wo man will do everyth in g in he r power to follow the laws . of health in order t o make hers e lf efficient. A g lance through the rules made and kept by the different women's fraternities, shows how serio us ly the groups were considering health problems, and applying the remedies to their spec ifi c health needs. The results wer e gratHying in many instances.

Dr. Matzke has g iven us a new vision regarding the pos s ibilities of our own health program among members of lIB <1> The Health Committee of our fraternity hopes for as s ince r e cooperation among the active chapters as Dr. Matzke had from the organized groups of the University of Missouri.

Dr. Mary Lakeman of the Massachusetts Board of Health in commenting on Dr. Matzke's articl e says : HI have just been reading with great interest the story of the health service at the University of Missouri. I find a number of good idea s which we

may be able to act upon here in our Normal Schools. Nowhere h.. so much responsibility for the carrying out of a health program been taken by the students and I believe that is sound to the core ."

WITH A PI PHI POET

(Jane O'Sullivan, Nevada A, has attracted much favorable comment for her poems which have been appearing in "Deser t Dusk" published f,y the st udent body of the University of Nevada, Reno, Nevada.-The Editor).

DESERT DUSK

A sky of tlamlng beauty overhead. Gray sagebrush, d ese rt ea rth-a warm, rich red. Mountains, blue, then rose, then amethyst. Distance veiled, by dying sun rays kissed.

Th e first cool breath of night comes taint and fragrant. One star wit.b trembly light , a glimmering vagrant. Poises In the smoky, purpling dusk That folds the world In a deep·sbadowed husk.

Faint and far, a lone coyote howls. Soft-footed through tbe dark, a wild cat prowls. Valley lights gleam promises of rest . A prayer breathes from the quiet of the West.

ATH L ET I CS AT GATLINBURG

By D. C. DENTON

One of th e greatest needs of the ave rage mountain girl or boy at the pre se nt time is s u pervised play The g ir ls a nd boys of the mountain sect ion s afe den ied many p leas ur es th<-1.t the c it y boys an d g irl s en joy .

As a genera l ru l e th e mountain chi ldre n have to work m ost of the time fo r th e p ur pose of h e lping s up port th e fami ly. The average family is large an d it take s nearly a ll it s time to keep the the wo lf fr om the cl oor. Thi s being th e condit ion in th e m o unta in s the boys and gi rl s become stooped s houldered and o ut of proportion in many wa ys. Many a re as o ld at t ig htee n as they s hould be at thirty. Now the best way to improve th ese conditions is by supervised play. 'rhe qu es tion is, h o wl are w e going t o reach those who are no t in schoo l ? vVe ll , I think T ca n s how you that we have di sco vered the key to the s ituat io n.

When I came to the Pi Beta P hi Sc h oo l to teac h and have c h arge of the athlet ics, there had not be e n so very mu ch stress put upon athletics. The boys had b ee n playing base ba ll but they never had seen a game of basketba ll and very few o f th em knew the re waS a game 0 f that name.

So early in the season of 1922-23, at one o f our Hi-Y m eetings I took the oppo rlun it y to exp la in to them the game in it s different phases a nd how it developed the body, so t he boys decided they would lik e to pla y basketball. The foll o wing day we all m et on t he field , selected a suitable place for our co urt and began clearing away th e r ocks. Two or three of th e boys went t o th" w oods for poles to put our baskets on. Eve rythin g m oved alon g nicely. I never hav e see n a bun c h o f boys mo re willing to w o rk. I already had a new ball and the bas ket s so we were in cond iti on for playing by the fo ll owing noon recess. Here is wher e th e fun came , tr ying to t eac h th ose yo ung men a game they had never seen and did not know anything about. I will admit we got along slowly but they were willing to learn . The greatest trouble

NEWS FROM LITTLE

I had with the boys was their wantin g t o play individual ball-not being abl e t o cooperate with the o th er players--wanting to throw a ll the baskets. Selfishness is the c haracter i stic of the boy who has never had supervised play .

A fter we had practised two or thr ee weeks the boys decided that they would lik e to play some o ut side sc h ool. I sec ured a ga m e with one of the best teams in the co unty, Chilhowee, to he played o n o ur co urt. My, but I wish yo u could ha ve seen o ur boys coming out dr essed in their new s uits-jerseys of th e Pi P hi co lors . Everything wa s exci te ment. A large number of the community people were there to see the fir s t ga m e o f basketba ll . The result of the game was an ove rwh e lming victory fo r the visiting team. The thing that I admired in o ur boys w as that the y played hard until the end , even though th ey were being defeat ed. We on ly w o n one game th e entire seaso n but they never fo r o ne time became discouraged . They would o nly say, "We s hall beat that team ju s t as soon as we get a littl e better teatnwo rk." The season ended with every boy determined to be in sc hoo l the next year.

The boys wer e very eager to ge t into ha s ketball thi s year . de termined to win ove r th e team s th ey had lo st to the pre viou s seaso n. vVe were very mu ch handi capped, however, by not having an indoo r court. \V e began prac ti c ing ea rly and pla yed under these conditions until th e new Pi Phi barn was compl e ted. 'l"he boys helped work on th e barn every c ha nce th ey had so as t o speed up its co mpl e ti on .

Mi ss Evelyn gave us th e privilege of u s ing the loft for a gymnasium. ''''"e mark ed o rr th e court whi c h we made s ixty-ri ve feet lo ng and thirty - nine fee t wid e and it wa s twe nt y-fo ur feet to the roof so you see we had a s pacious place to play. We put up ne w goals and oiled the fl oo r. These things done we had one ot the best courts in the county. I have never seen a bunch of boys better pleased an yt hing than they were with the new indoo r court.

The girls by thi s time d ec ided they wanted t o learn t o play. Mr. Mattil consented to help me coac h so we were able to begin regular practice periods fo r both boys and girls. I have never seen a team improve fa ster than thos e boy s did V>Ie played eight games

TilE ARROW OF 1'1 BETA PHI

with th e leadin g schoo l s o f the county, winning f our . \Ve w on ove r Sevier County High Sc hoo l 8 t o 24.

We did not confine th e use of the co urt t o the sc hoo l a lone but e ncouraged the boys o f th e community to use it wh e n we co uld be there to s upe rvi se . They ce rtainly did take advantage of th e 0PIX>rt unit y. The young Jnen ca me f or miles around to play and enjoyed it very l11uch. They o rganized a team which they ca lled the Gatlinburg Tiger s. The sc hool o ft en played the Tigers for practice and these games we re m o r e exc iting than those played with v is iting team s.

I. have never seen a bun ch o f boys improve as mu ch phy s ically as ou r boys ha ve in the last two years and I believe I can say it was all due t o playing basketball. Some of th e boys smoked cigarettes at first but they f o und o ut at once they could n o t continue smoking and be able t o end ure as much as those wh o did n ot s moke so they quit.

Another g reat advantage of baske tball is that yo u can ge t the boys wh o are out of sch oo l inte r es ted and the y will come to schoo l, o therwi se you w o uld not be able to get them .

We s hall no t be able to u se th e barn next year for a gym "n account of putting feed in it so it will be impos ible for u s t o go o n with o ur pr esent athletics with out an ind oo r gym.

Sun-Up, o n e of the mo st succes s ful plays that New York has had thi s la s t yea r , is a sto ry o f the life o f the Southern M ountaineers.

forth on the stage of Th .. Princess Theater are striking ly like those found on Little Pigeon when Pi Beta Phi first went there, and Miss La Verne, as Ma Cagle, seems to me to be. a cOlnposite portrait of several of our best loved and strongest mountain women. Ma Cagle is a sturdy mountain woman whose husband has been killed in a feud many years before. She has nursed the feud and thinks that some tim e Rufe, her on ly ch ild , will avenge hi s father's death. l-T e, however, has gone to the schoo l set up in the valley a nd ha s learned a new law, the law of love There is set forth most sympathet ica ll y the conflict between the o ld spirit of feud and the new spirit of love.

\V e put into the play. for the night of ou r performance, references to the Pi Beta Phi School. It was to the Pi Beta Phi School that Rufe and Eml11Y, his sweetheart, had gone, and where they had learned the new spirit.

The results of the benefit performance were all and more than we had hoped for. Mrs. William H. Lough, Mrs. ,Vayman Adams, Mrs. Stowell Stebbins, Mrs. Samuel McKeown, and Mrs. Paul V. Frary were the committee in charge. Mrs. Lough , as cha irman , with the enthusiastic assistance of the comnl itt ee and the wh o le club, managed the affair. \V e cleared $901, and Miss Vollmer, the author, was so much interested in o ur sch ool as she heard us talk about it that s h e asked us if she could not make up the amount to $1,000. She was not sat isf ied with that. but is giving a scho larship in addition.

The play i s still drawing such large houses in New York City that it will probably be sometime before it goes on the r oad. But when it does go, the management will be very g lad to cooperate with Pi Beta Phi alumnae clubs in c iti es where the play is given if th ey would like to g ive benefits. Mrs. \Villialn H. Lough, 670 Pelham Road, New Rochelle, New York. will be very glad to write to any club interested and to give details of the management here with a copy of the publicity pamphlet.

This fellowship will be awarded to a college woman. and is to be devoted to graduate study in any accredited institution.

The amount of the Fellow ship is five hundred dollars. Application blanks may be obtained from Elizabeth Heywood Wyman, 456 Broad St., Bloomfield, N. J.

The spirit whi ch prompts the giv ing of this fellowship is adnlirable since it offers oppo rtunity to young women for advanced study regardles s of whether they belong to a Greek letter organization. Such national projects most certainly justify the existence of fraternities.

CAMP KIMOHO

CA'U' ICn.toJio in the Colorado National Forest, owned and operated by Mrs. J. Wilson Currens, (Ger trude Fitz Randolph, Colorado A), 1445 Grandview Ave., Boulder, Colo., is jllst twentylhree miles from Boulder. It is an ideally located slimmer camp occupying a square mile of mountains and virgin forest, situated on the edge of beautiful Lake Minne, a mile and a half frolll Peaceful Valley, and in sight of perpetual snow.

The camp which is for girls includes in its program, study, dramatics, camp craft, swimming, riding, athletics, hikes , and gypsy trips to such points as Isabel Glacier, Estes Park, Buchanan Pass, etc. A counselor is provided for every four girls. A graduate nurse , dietician, and experienced guides are 011 the camp staff. A handso me illustrated booklet will be sen t by Mrs. Currens upon request.

The object sought at Camp Kimoho is to utilize the precious weeks in camp with such a constructive and well-balanced schedule of activities that the girls return home with stronger bodies, keener minds, more skillful hands, a finer social spirit, s trengthened patrioti c sentiment and an aU-aro und devel opment that make s for self-reliance, consideration of others and appreciation of the beauties of nature.

THE HANOUM CAMPS

Pi Phis in New England this summer will be w elcome visi· tors at The Hanoulll Camps at Thetford, Vermont-ten miles from Hanover, N. H., and just across the Connecticut River val· ley from the main Blue Book road to the White Mountains.

Hanollm started fifteen years ago when a group of girls in the Horace Mann School of Columbia University asked Mrs. Charles H.

To celebrate the chapter birthday we Invited the aclive chapter to a children'. party at the home of Ma.rjorle Fraser, and It was not only a splendid "get·to·gether" party but was also the best run we had had since our house party.

The Initiation dinner which Immediately followed the most beau· tltul Initiation ceremony Ontario A has had, was especially enjoyab l e this year. Amongst other things it was the occasion ot the tlrst rendering ot the new PI Phi "Coast to Coast" alumnae song which owes Its origin to Mar y Herdman Scott, who composed the music and to Marjorie J. L. Fraser, who wrote the words.

Th e regular monthly meetings have been Interesting. This is especially true or one meeting at which Anne Edgar, r ecently returned from medical missionary work in India, gave us a very vivid and Inter· estlng description ot her lire and work there.

One ot our tirst meeUngs was a "Settlement School" meeting; another had as its main feature an old fashioned match on the traternlty Constitution. Then at our March meeting, Edith Gordon gave a brief but practi c al talk on the necessity tor establishing health standards and regulations in high schools and colleglates as a preventl\'e and protective mea8ure.

The Lancaster Alumnae Club of PI Beta Phi haa m e t r egu larl y each month at the homu of various m e mbers and at the lo ca l Y. W. C. A building. The plan of holding tour business meetings annuall y nod or making th e other gatherings largely soc ral 86amR to have appealed to the club, and has given U8 a better chance to know each other. Sin ce we had Planned to make the Initiation rob es tor th e Dickinson cha pter In order to ral88 mon ey tor the S et tl e m e nt School, a tew of th e social meetings and some Intervening time, when w e found we could assemble, w e r e devoted to sewing. Although we have been unable to tin Ish th e garm e nts In tim e tor Initiati on. th ey will be rea('l.y for n ext )·car.

Again the aelling ot Chril!ltm8a ca rda has proved t o be the simplest method ot raising money tor the Settlement School. W e have at lea s. $1311 to send to "Little Pigeon" and hope to In c r ease the amount to $160 Mise Bishop's letters. keeping u s In c l 08e touch with the work h. the Tenn esllee mountains, make us teel that we should make even greatel ettort to Increase our co ntribution.

How tortunate we were to have Gladys Emrich, an alumna o t Pa Band Jane ' Haggert y, A. m e mb e r ot th e active chap t e r oC Pa. 1', visit U8 at dlHerent times and give us enthusiastic reporta ot convention!

Since many ot the members oC the Lancaster Club and so many from the nearby active chap t e rs are planning to attend th e Easterl. Conference In 'Vashlngton , we dec ided to omit the annual banquet How thrilled we were to se e Mrs .

In our meetinge this year we have tried to establish more sociability , Tn a club In which the membership Is 80 scallered, and new a lumn ae are joining ranks frequently. the need tor lhllt Is very urgent. Consequently, we have permitted the Exec utive Committee to transa.ct a great deal of the routine bUll ness, giving it to the c lub In the torm or rel>0I"t8, thU8 allowing more time to "become acquainted" With each other.

Our tint meeting, May, was a porch party given the club by Mr •. J. K. Evan. (:\farlon Hallowell, Pa, ..4.). Th e 1-::8te8 Park convention W8S' the topic of Interest at that time.

In October, we had our regular luncheon at the College Club, rollowed by the convention report. The events were reviewed In three phases; Grace Filler, Alumnae Club delegate, gave a general report; Marlon Baker, Beta Province Vlce·Presldent, lold of the malten that (:o n ce rned alumnae c lubs; and Dorothy MacLaren. Pa. A. chap t er dele· gate . confined her report to those attain of Inte r est to active chapte rs. At this meeting a n ew constitution was adopted tor our c lub.

Bridge was enjoye d In co nnection with the November m eeting , and in De cember, we had an Informal tea at the College Club, at which laabel Jacobs, Pa A, entertained us with r eadings.

On the occasion of the January meeting, the alumnae club enter· lal ned Pa. A c hapl er at a luncheon and bridge at Strath Hav e n Inn, Swarthmore. This was a survival of a custom discontinued during the war, but we hope to again make It an annual event.

In February, the main tOPi c of c onv e rsation was th e Washington Conference. The enthusla.tlc announcements we received foretold the wonderful time In store for us.

Our March business meeting was brief as it preceded the regular initiati on cere monies of Pa. A. Following a custom started a few yean a.go, a Joint banquet was h eld, this year at Hotel Sylvania, atter the Inltllltion We now look forward to this as one o'f the best events of the year

Our co nlrlbutlon to the Settlement School thla year we hope wlJl total $1000 . Almost half of thl. amount we rece ived fr o m the sale of Christmas CA rda Our one big Settlement Sc hool function was a benefit card party, Mar c h 15, directed by :Mrs, F. L. Nussbaum (Cecil Rigby, Ill. E) cha.lrman or our Settlement School committee. At this party, the School b8.llketry and weaving were on eale, and Mrs. Downs, Pa. 11 , gave n little talk. t e lling of the School and Its Qccompllshmentlt. This event did mu ch to Increase th e knowledge and interest or our f ri e nds In the work we are doing. We are trying a sectional sale, alao, In the hope that In the futUre it may be attempted in a larger way and becom e a. rel'ular c lub event.

The Atlanta Alumnae Club Is a very unusual one; although conaI8ting ot only eighteen members, our Interests are divided between nearly as many chapters.

There II no active chapter ot PI Phi near Allanta, and the club 18 therefore not thrown In contact with active girls. We hOPe to have several member. present at the Eastern Conference, and In this way our national Interest. and Intereat In the active C'hapter will Increase.

Little Pigeon Is or course our first and largest Interest. The aale ot Christmas cards brought $60 for the Settlement School Fund. The club has had several small b e nefit bridge parUes to Increas(' our yearly amount Ten cents Is collected trom each a.t the meetings, and a "tax i" tee haa also been paid, bringing our Settlement School money to almost $100.

In reviewing the work of our club, I find that our aim haa been to I'atae money tor the beautiful new chapter house.

The chapter house was purchased by the college to be used aa a dormitory tor PI Phis. It was in great need ot repairs and the college provided a very small amount tor thl8.

A generoua gift from !\lrs. Green (Anna CI0880n) en c ouraged the alumnae to have the house as it should be, and raise money (or the debt aa we could. Early in the summer, enUre remodelling ot the house began, under the supervision ot a committee. Our patroness. Mrs. 'V. 11. Sawyer and Mrs. Green, members ot the committef:'. did much ot the planning. Mrs. Green gave her entire time to the work for weeks. 'Ve owe a great deal to her tor her untiring eHorts.

Resident melT' bers ot Ihe club \\' rOll' to vutsldf' 1l1Umn.lf' " X}JIHlnlng the situation and asking tor tunde.

Two rummage sales and tood sales added to our Cund. 'Ve made cu rtains tor college dormitories. being paid by the hour.

'Ve managed the initiation banquet, with help Crom our splendid "Mother.' Club:' :Much oC the tood was donated a.nd lho In oney was paid the club Instead ot outside helP.

A large bridge party was held in March at the ;\1 ildred Godtrey Hall, harpist, being an added attraction.

At Christmas time Mr s. E. T. Prideaux manu gcd the Chrlstmus card sale from which a goodly sum was realized.

Another rummage sale will be held Just before Easter.

In spite of our d esi re to put our money Into the house. we huve not forgotte n the Settlem ent School. \V e sent $75 and have set l\slde a Settlement Sehool tund lur next year.

Anoth er year of the Madi son Alumnae Club Is over, and while e8<' h year we do about the eame things at our meetings we neverthelel!lf!l enjoy them Just as much.

This year we have been trying out a new Idea on the alumnae and the actlvel!l getting better a('(IUalnted. Each alumnae entertains two actives on{'e durl!1g the year at lun <,h, movie or the like. We still have an advisory board which Is three alumnae that keeps us Informed about the chaPter. At one of our meeti ng .. we Invited Mrs . the hous e chaperon and one of the chapter, AnitA Haven. Anita told us a most Interesttng account or convention.

Many at the alumnae went to the bridge party the a c ti\'e chapter gave at the chapte r house to rals(> money for the Settlement School. We alumnae rais e d our quota again by seiling old c lothes at the Service Shop to the poor.

The alumnae and nctivea are again celebrating )o-oUnders' Day together at the cha.pter house'" Ith a lJupper on April 23. 'Ve are having It on this date because Miss Evans, Grand Secretary. Is going to be he r e at that time.

W e were all very mu ch Interested In the co nferen ce at \Vashlngtoll and wished we cou ld have sent a repres e ntative . No doubt severa l of us heard the PI Phi songs and the speech ot Mrs Call over the radio Six of the Q('11\"6 c hapter glril!l went, so we hope to hear it from them.

tended by about sixty PI Phis representing several dltterent chapters and all very enthusiastic tor the year's work. Two other general meetings have been held, one a.t the home ot Josephine Brynes Seiberlich and another at the home at Mrs. FrederiCk Bass. The laat meeting ot the year will be held early In Ma:r at which time ottlcera will be elected tor the coming year.

It was a very great privilege and pleasure tor the club early In the year to Klve a tea at the chapter house tor two well known PI Phis: Mra. Soule, one ot our Founders to whom wo all became very much attached, and Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt. Our Invitation was the only one Mrs. Catt would consider during her stay In Minneapolis. It was an Inspiration tor all at us to have her talk to us as sbe did and to meet her In such an Intormal way,

Our annual Christmas lun cheon at the MAryland was a great success thia year, There were about 75 present, Including many activei', Atter the luncheon bridge was played, The annu&1 St. Patrick's party was given at the houae tor the active girls. Each alumna brought a piece at linen tor the house and the c lub gave a chec k to the active girls tor more linen which was very much needed.

The Founders' day banquet Is to be held April 25 at the Dayton Tea Rooms, On April 30. a large bridge party will be given at the Oal{ Grove Hotel, the proceeds to go to the Settlement School. The proceeds trom the bazaar last November w e re to go to the Settlement School also. H was Q.uite a success tlnanclally but we have decided not to have one next year but to try various other ways to ralse ' money tor the Settlement School.

Several members ot the alumnae c lub have been very prominent in the College Women's Club ot Minneapolis Mrs. Ruth Robbins Rodda has served o,s president tor the last two yean, Mrs. Sybil Bates GutterRon has served as treasurer tor the same length of time. Mrs. AImee Fisher Cates, Mrs. Nita Da.y Carman and Monica Langtry have all been vcry prominent In dlfterent activities at the c lub .

The Cedar Rapids Alumnae Club has held monthly meetings, the first S:\turday ot each month. With a number or our members teaching In the public schools nnd the college, we find this time gives eve ryone an opportunity to meet with ua. These meetlnga are preceded by picnic lun c heons at one o·c lo c k. We have enjoyed thtlse 80 much. In theae busy days of varied Int erests, we take time over the tea cups to get better a c quainted, and we never l eave an alumnae meeting without being glad all Over again for the tiny arrow that has brought us all together.

We had one little experience 800n after we started having luncheons which caused us to wonder If they 'Were reall y goi n g to be a aucceas. Every single "covered dish" proved to be escall oped potatoes Can you Imagine what a disappointment that wal!' to appetites whetted by Saturday morning activities? One good PI Phi husband wall 110 conce rned by It that he figUred out math e matlca.lly h ow orten that might happen with a club this size, and he assures us that It wi ll never be repeated. So we l ook forward to each meeting with great anticipation.

We hav e followed n o r egu l ar program this Year, but have dlscuued matters of cur rent and fraternal Int e rest Of most vital fnter ee t and Importance to our c lub Is the J\cttve cha pter at the Unive r sity of Iowa n.nd the Settlement Schoo l. We are very happy to be able to occaelona ll}' send the girls at Iowa ,omethlng for their house, and t h i s aprlng we gave a "ery euccesefu l bridge benefit at the home ot our president, R eed. the proceeds at which went to the girls for their build in g fund . Our gift to the S e ttlement School 18 mad e by Individual donations and that for the Fellowship Fund Is taken trom the treallury.

Two of our membere attended the confe r ence at Washington, and we are all eagerly looking forward to their rep o rL We are happy to have added Mrs. E S. Browning (Mary R e mley, Iowa Z), to our number.

Our plans for Foundeu' Day have not been co mpleted , but we expect to ce l eb rat e with a real old·faehloned cooky-ahl ne.

Important business Is di sc ussed at meeting every two or thre e months. Tn September we gave a rushing tea at Mrs. Warr en Garst's. The October meeting was ot general business, getting ready for the co ming year with committee reports and those III convention. In November w(' had just a socia l gathering.

The vice-president at that time 'Was taken very seriously III with an Illn ess or several months' duration. This neceuarlly prevented meetings. and one other member has been III for aome time and unable to attend 60 that our work haa been 80 broken up that nothing has been accomplished.

'V e feel that we have accomplished a very worth while piece ot work thle year In securi n g most su cce!! srul cooperation with the active chapt€:r. \Ve began this work by al'l5umlng the remaining debt on sOlne furniture for the chapte r house. This money raised by Increasing the membership dues to a dollar a m o nth, the entire year's 8.s.essment being paid by the first of March , The alumnae club 88slsted the a c tive girls, In giving their one r t,;shl n g party- strletly tor girls. according to Pan.hellenlc decree _ The )"tarty took the form of a Spanish ca baret.

Upon the cordial Invitation of Nev. A. the- Advisory Board and other· alumnae have visited chapter meetings at frequent Intervals r1urlng thfo year, thereby keeping In touch with campU8 problems.

As a Chrh.tma. gift. Nevada Alumnae presided over a mlacellaneoul' shower for the chapter house.

AIrs P. M. Young, Kappa Provin ce President, visited our chapter In November, telling us of the work of neighboring alumnae clubs and giving U8 splendid Ideas for more etrectlve work.

Our contribution to the Sf'tllement School WfU!: raised by the ule of ("'hrlstmas card.. 'Ve had a 8ucctuful exhibit of Settlement School baaketa, creating In the community Intereat In PI Beta Phl'l! national constructl ve program.

At the last regular monthly meeting, the chapter added two new otflcers to the IIst:--one, a mUfJlc l eader, and the other, a custodian 01 fJuppllea. The mualc leader was needed, we felt, In order thal we might keep up with the ('hapter's new aongs. The cus todian of 8uppllu 115 to take charge of all Initiation properties and robes belonging to both active and alumnae l"haptera-a new presldent"8 robe Is the gltt of the alumnae to the active chapter.

Plans are well under way lor lhe Jo'oun(lers' Day banquet. Aboul forty active and alumnae m e mbers are expected. 'J'Ihls ce lebration ta always one or the year's real events for Neva.da PI Phia.

Along with our more serious plans of the year, we have crowded In 80me very jolly times together. As u8ual, our meetings next year wt1l be held the third Tue8day or the month. All vl8ltlng PI Phis are c ordially Invited to join U8.
