Begin to Make Plans Now

OUR IDEALS By SALOME MEAD, Coloralio B

In the years of college pleasure

Through the years of college pln.v,

While we work and ponder oyer

Problems of each college day,

While we ha,'c our joys ahrl troubles

'Vhile we have our smiles and tears,

Through it all we know that Pi Phi

Guards and guides us through the YCll f S.

To her lofty standards Pi Phi

Holds each girl in honor clue,

And each one must give he r service

To these ideals strong and true;

She must live to make things better,

She must work with motive hig h,

She must h ave a he lping spirit

If she loves Pi Betl! Phi.

She must lcarn to treat he r schoolm3tes

Though they wea r the Kites or Keys,

Though they wear no honored emblems,

Just as she b eats one of these

\Vho in bonds or loving firmness

Is bound wi th thnt life-long tie .

To be e'~er 8S a sister in the bonds

of our Pi Phi.

THE ARROW VOLUME XXXIX MARCH, 1923 NUMBER 3

CONVENTIO T-ESTES PARK! JUNE 25-30

Th~n: 's a Pi Phi (rail a-winding 10 Colorado this June,

Special train, and car a-traveling ),Oll will see us real 500n.

Tht're'!\ :l big hotel a ~aiting to take care of us all.

And we'll soon be there a-smiling in Pi Phi convention hall.

('oT1\'ention! \\,hy ? ('oll\'cntion morc

nearly represents our ("ollception of national organization and national interests than anything whirh we have in OllT fraternity system. It gi \'cs each chapter the opportunity to he recognized as a link in the national chain and brings to each chapter the realization that it has a far-reaching influ ence rather than just that of an independent or isolated group.

By our coming together in a big national meeting we are enabled to know our beloved Founders, our national officers, and the representatives of every Pi Beta Phi group. N ames which we have learned in cold type become living, thinking beings. Problems which loomed grave and menacing in the cold ink or type of letters are smoothed out and explained away with words and the lruman touch.

IC this is your first convention it will enrich your life with new friends; if it is not your first, you will find the joy and pleasure of renewing old friendships and of making new ones. Instead of finding your horizon limited to the state in which you live, you

406 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

will find it widening to Canada, to Florida, to California, to \Vash- ' ington.

After days- spent ·in working out constructive legislation or in making more perfect the laws which we have j after nights .spent in singing and after hours filled with the joys of viewing the snowcapped R ockies or hiking through timber and scaling mountain sides, you will return home with a renewed faith in humanity and with an earnest endeavor to strive after the ideals for which Pi Beta Phi stands.

This convention is to be a "Singing Convention ." In speaking of the war, Lieutenant Howard A. Johnson, ~ N, said: "If one asks why the Gennans l1ad no chance to win, my answer is that they had to fight singing armies. The British with 'Tipperary,' the French with 'Madelon'-all the Allies with their extemporized songs-men whose morale couldn't be broken, but who put their complaints in the form of songs-they couldn't be defeated. Most of all does this apply to the American Army. No war ever brought out the humor and the songs that this war did, although no other war caused so much real suffering."

It is a common saying among fraternity inspectors and officers that wherever they find a singing chapter, they find harmony and an ideal spirit of fellowship. Hence, we intend to make our meeting at Estes Park so filled with the songs of our colleges, our fraternity, and our chapters that the entire six days will be like a symphony orchestraproducing with its many individual players and instruments the effect of one huge organ and its song: perfect harmony.

THE ATTENDANCE CUP

Are you going to win the silver attendance cup which Louisiana A won at Charlevoix in 1920? From the amount of enthusiasm displayed by the Louisiana gi rls ,"e will all have to work exceedingly hard if we expect to win it. The attendance cup is awarded upon the following points: total number of chapter present; mileage; actives present; active enrollment j and total enrollment. Every chapter has an equal chance. I

CONVENTION EXHIBIT

One of the most interesting phases of convention is the chapter exhibit contest. These exhibits leave lasting impressions UP'"oD the minds of the convention delegates and visitors. The award is made

CONVENTION-ESTES PARK 407

for the best chapter exhibit upon the following points: Representation of chapter: social, athletic, dramatic, musical and other activi· ties to be included; representation of university or college; artistic effect. (See October ARROW, 1920, p. 44 and December ARROW,

1921, p. 203). BRING YOUR FAMI1.Y

Bring your families to convention. There will be plenty of things to keep them busy while you are attending sessions, fmm playing gelf and riding horseback, to hiking moer glaciers, up canons and mountain sides or just resting in the mountain sunshine.

Estes Park is Ii lIed with mountain ('ottage~ whi('h may he T""ted if YOUT family prefers to live in them rather than in the hotel. These cottages give a touch of vacation and outdoor life not obtainable in

t:1C larger hotels.

SUMMER HOME SITES

You have undoubtedly heard of the summer home sites now available in the national forests. Come to Estes Park to the convention and while there investigate a site for your summer home Throughout such areas in the Colorado National Forest there are numberless at· tractive summer home locations easi ly accessible to those who love the mountains. Study the areas offered and pick out a location for your home in the mountains so that you can return year by year with your family. These horne sites are rented or leased from the government for the sum of $10 to $25 a year. Permits are transferable with the approval of the Forest Service and permittees are allowed ninety days in which to remove or sell their improvements in case they desire to reJinquish their permits. Full information concerning these home sites may be obtained from the Forest Supervisor at Fort Collins, Colo., or the District Forester, Federal Building, Denver, Colo.

ESTES PARK-TilE BEAUTIFUL

During the season of 1921 , more than 273,000 lovers of nature visited. Estes-Rocky Mountain National Park and yet there are so many miles of forests and mountains, so many canons and trails and so much space that one can always find solitude. Estes Park is only eighty miles from Denver and eighty-nine miles from Cheyenne, Wyo., and is easily accessible by rail and auto. During the tourist season Estes Park enjoys three mails daily and has direct long dis-

408 THE ARROW OF Pi BETA PHI

tance telephone and telegraphic connections with the 'East and the West. The railroad does not run into the Park but auto stage lines make the trip daily up and down the canons connecting with the railroads at Denver, Longmont or Fort Collins.

flHere in the heart of the Rockies the naturalists find more than one thousand of the continent's rarest and most beautiful flowers and hundreds of birds; the hik.er finds more than sixty peaks above 11,000 feet to scale and a number of glaciers with their ice caves; the golfer linds splendid links at the Country Club, the angler discovers many, many miles of trout streams to coax him, and the automobile enthusiast, hundreds of miles of fine mountain roads to urge him on. In fact, almost any temperament may find something of interest, although the grandeur and ruggedness of nature is the chief attraction."

Last season, 1,060 persons reached the summit of Longs Peak which towers 14,255 feet above sea level with the sheer cliff rising perpendicularly 2,800 feet above Chasm Lake. Fifty years ago this peal< was considered unconquerable.

There are scores of places of interest that may be reached by auto or horseback or foot trails and the entire country is a paradise for the kodak enthusiast.

Wild game may be found in the park such as deer, elk, mountain sheep, bear and hundreds of beaver.

HI STORY OF E STES PARK

With its large herds of game and streams teeming with trout, Estes Park was for countless ages the paradise of the Redskins of the Western plains. Later, trappers for the Hudson Bay Company found this territory just to their liking. The winter of 1840-41 found Kit Carson and his band of trappers in the Park. From that time until 1859 it was an unexplored land. At that time it was discovered by Joel Estes - for whom it was named. He discovered newly-erected lodge poles but from that day to this it has never been visited by Indians. But the white men have found its advantages so great that they have annually visited the Park in ever increasing numbers.

SPEND THE SUMMER I N THE WEST

Just a short distance from the Hotel Stanley, the Y. W. C. A. has its conference grounds which will be open all summer. There you may rest and play to your heart's delight.

•


In the latter part of July the big Frontier Days' Celebration which is the rendezvous for hundreds of Wild West riders both men and women who come to test their skill in busting bronchos, bulldogging steers, roping calves and conquering in all sorts of western sports, will be. held at Cheyenne, Wyo., just eighty-nine miles from Estes Park.

Those who are planning to accompany Mrs. Rugg on the Third Pi Beta Phi European Tour will start for the eastern coast immedi· ately after convention; those who ct?ntemplate making a tour of American parks and pleasure spots will also start on their jaunt from the convention sessions.

This June, ESTES PARK will be the Pi Phi Hub I

CONVENTION CLOTHES

You must keep in mind the fact that Estes Park is in the mountains at an altitude of more than 1,500 feet so that the nights are always cool and a wrap of some kind is necessary. Do not fail to bring a sweater and a coat. There will be no chance of a 'Cheat wave" as it is rare when the thermometer rises above ninety degrees at our chosen meeting place. And hot weather is unknown the last of June in the

Roclc.ies . You will want IIconvention" clothes but not a lot of uconventional"

garments because there will be np great formality when the Pi Phis take command of the Hotel Stanley. Elaborate dress will be most

unsuitable. One party dress for the banquet will suffice, a hiking suit, either

of the prescribed trouser type or a heavy skirt and middy will be essential j spring dresses will be comfortable for the day time and for convention sessions j but an afternoon dress of serge, or silk will probably prove more serviceable.

Do not fail to bring the sweater and coat for evening wear I

THE BANQUET

Those of you who have attended previous conventions know what a crowning feature the banquet is. Nothing can take the place of it. Plans are now under way for a splendid affair. A very low special rate has been made by the H otel Stanley to the hotel guests and the hotel management is also prepared to accommodate every Pi Phi who can attend the banquet whether she is a guest at the hotel or elsewhere. Prices for the banquet will be announced in the April Bul/.tin and in the June ARROW.

o , ~ • ~ ...


THE H OTEL STANLEY

No expense was spa red and no modern ideas in hotel equipment O\'erlooked in building the Hotel Stanley. The hotel management has tumed oyer the exclusive use of the hotel, the manor and the casino to our convention. There are also many other hotels which will

accommodate any Q\"crfl ow of Pi Phis, relatives, or friends. Convention sessions will be held in the Casino, a most attractive

bui lding exactly suited to our needs. The hotel grounds are well lighted with electricity; the hotel kit

chen is equipped with electrical appliances and the laundry is fully ~uppli(.-J. with t::"ery appliance for taking care of the work of its hotel

guests. RC3cn'ations for con\'cntion should be made as soon as possible

with ~Ir. Frank H aberl, Stanley H otel, Estes Park, Colo. The rate of $5.00 a day made by the hotel is excellent. It is ,'ery essential that you fill out the enclosed registration blank,

a.nd mail to the Con\'ention Guide when making reservations with Mr. Frank Haberl, as the Guide has charge of room assignments. If you desire to be ell suite with or near friend:; who have made previous reservations, give necessary detail!; o( information and everything possible will be done to accommodate you. P eople making the earliest reservat ions, will, of cou rse, obtain the most desirable rooms. Be sure to give the name of each member of the party for whom you are making reservations, to avoid duplications. If you do not have 3.

regu lar registration blank to send do not wait to get one-send a letter.

AFTER- CONV£NTION PLANS

Plans are being considered for an After-Convention] louse-Party and for ,·ari.ous interesting tr ips throughout Colorado and the \Vest. Full details will be announced later. \Vatch for the Bulletin and

POST CONVENTION EUROPEAN TOUR As announced in the December issue of THE ARROW, the author

ized Pi Beta Phi Tour to Europe for 1923 has ueen arranged with special consideration for Convention plans making it possible to proceed from Estes Park immediately to the port of departure. The party "ill meet in Montreal on the evening of July 5 and embark on the foHowing morning on the popular new S. S. Mon/rose for the voyage down the St. Lawrence River. The first two days on this scenic Joute are a feature of the trip and the approach to the natural fortress of Quebec is an impressive experience.

On arrival in Liverpool, the party will proceed direct to Chester and the tirst night on English soil will be spent in this romantic town. Travel in England and Scotland includes a special three-days' motor tour in rural England, enabling the party to witness a performance in the Memorial Theater at Stratford-on-Avon. A recent letter from the business management says: uMrs. Rugg is indeed fortunate, as we have just received advice that the Summer Shakespeare Festival opens on July 23."

The itinerary offers a variety of attractions: some of the stateliest English and European cathedrals; carefully chosen examples of ancient "3nd medieval castles and the art of the great galleries, including the unparalleled Egyptian relics in the British Museum whjch arc now of particular interest. Restful trips on lake steamers and through quiet Dutch canals arc provided at intervals Mountain trips are a most attractive feature and the maximum of motoring has been planned to insl.;1re delightful travel over a wide rural area. The c1imalC of the tour will be a three-day motor trip through the valley of the Loire, visiting the marvelous chateaux of the French kings.

Mrs. Rugg is in correspondence with the Belgian girls who have welcomed the previous parties so warmly and who are eager to spend an evening in Brussels with the 1923 group. Other plans of a personal nature are now under way, which will give the party unusual glimpses of contemporary life and customs abroad.

The homebound sailing from France on S. S. Rochambcau brings

the travelers back to New York, allowing time for visiting and shopping in that popular city before returning home. Particularly attractive steamship reservations are available for early registrants

BASEBALL TRIP TO J AP AN By EDNA HATFIELD EDMONDSON (Mrs. C. E.), IndianaB

(An account of Yrs. Edmondson', public activitiea will appear in the June i'sue. -EOITOI)

To travel 14,000 miles to play cleven games was the experience of the Indiana University baseball team on its recent visit to Japan. The team went to Japan at the invitation of \Vaseda University at Tokyo to playa series of games with the Waseda and other Japanese

university teams. The Indiana team is one of a number of American college teams to exchange visits with Japanese college teams. While the expressed purpose of this exchange of visit~ is the playing of baseball, a deeper purpose as Professor Abe, who is responsible for the idea sees it, lies in the hope that through the field of sport an important contribution may be made to an international understanding be~ tween the young men of America and the young men of Japan .

The team left Bloomington the last of March and returned the last of May after an absence of sixty days, thirty-five of which were spent on trains and steamers. The party consisted of twelve players, the

assistant coach, the coach and his wife, my husband as faculty manager, and myself. At this distance it may be safe to say that I went along "by way of decoration." As a matter of fact I found a number of ways to make myself useful-not the least of which was the official reporting of the trip and the games. My knowledge of haseball English increased amazingly and I was soon ahle to write uhe Ayed (JtH to center" and uhe died on third" without serious shock.

\Ve sai led from Seaule over the northern route vJ1 the All1cril:an steamship Keys/otic Slate, since renamed the lVillinm JlcA'i"lry, following the deci!'ion of the United States Shipping Hoard 10 name

the steamers under its operation for the presidents of the united States. As we steamed down Pugct Sound our party st ood on deck watching the snow-covered mountains receding in the background and the great flocks of sea gulls that circled round and round the boat. As we leaned against the rail one particularly bold gull flew past within a few feet of us. As he got along side he turned hi3; bill into our faces and said "ha-ha ha-ha." "Ha-ha ha-ha, yourself. You've nothing on me," retorted one of the team. It was this light-hearted ('ome-back so characteristic of healthy American youth which neither ~torm at sea, 'or earthquake 011 land, nor the lassitude induced by an unaccustomed climate, nor the confusion of strange situation~ could ever quite overconle, and which was responsihle in the end for the very decisive victory of the Indiana team over the Japanese team which had defeated us in the opening games.

The northern r oute passes within forty miles of the Aleutian islands and at this time of the year was very cold and stormy. \Ve ran through hail, sleet and snow. 1n the midst of a heavy storm at three o'clock in the morning seven nights out, it was necessary to stop our cngines to make some repairs. This a llowed our boat to drift helplessly about and suddenly we "fell off in the trough." Our boat listed thirty degrees to one side and twenty-three to the other. \Ve were awakened out of a deep sleep by the terrifying wrenching of the boat, the dreadful crash of the dishes in the dining-room, and the sound of what seemed to be thousands of feet on miles of ladders as the crew was called. out to clear away the wreckage.

We had been told the night before that we had been forced considerably out of our course by the storm in order to take the wind on a more favorable quarter. Knowing that we were to go close to the Aleutian Islands, my first thought as I tried to regain my balance


on my narrow bed was, "we are on the breakers and are lost!" Disappointing as it has been to me in looking back to the experience, none of the conventional deathbed thoughts flashed into my mind, my past remained a dead past, and I dipped no farther into the future than a sort of detached speculation as to how it would feel to be suffocated by the inrushing water. In the terror of the moment I made sure that my husband was in his narrow bed beside me, resigned myself, turned over, and calmly went to sleep I The morning brought stories of passengers having been thrown from their narrow beds to the Boors of their staterooms, and their baggage and furniture having been rearranged in the most surprising fashion.

Only two of our party were not sea sick at all. Some of the rest of us were sick before we were out of the Sound into the open sea, and some of us were sick the entire fourteen days of the unusually stormy crossing. After being one day over due because of the stormy weather we docked at Yokohama one afternoon about 'five o'clock in a cold drizzly rain. Here we found waiting to greet us Professor Ab~, Professor of Economics and Sociology at Waseda University and our host while in Japan; Mr. Ishii, third baseman on the Waseda team that had played in America the year before; Mr. Okada, the Chief Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Yokohama; and Mr. Isobe, representing the Indiana Unive;sity Japanese Alumn1. Little souvenirs of welcome from Waseda and from the City of Yokohama were pinned on our coats.

It was quite dark when we finally finished the ordeal of the immigration officials and the customs house, made as pleasant as possible by our Japanese friends, and were ready to start for Tokyo. Professor Abe had arranged for rikishas to take us from the dork to the railroad station.

Our nrst jinrikisha ride! I shall never forget the sensation. As we were pulled along the narrow unpaved streets between the rows of low tile-roofed buildings in Yokohama, with other jinrikishas and carts and bicycles filling the streets, passing and repassing us, each with its Japanese paper lantern as a traffic light, it seemed like a staged performance. This sense of the unreal experienced on our first night did not leave us during our entire stay in Japan.

\Ve were taken by electric train to Tokyo, a distance of some forty miles and drove to the Seiyoken . Hotel. There we were met by President Shiozaw3, President of Waseda University, several members


of his faculty, and scores of newspaper men. OUT reception was most cordial. It was by this time quite late but we were kept up much later being photographed for the early editions of the Japanese newspapers.

It had been originally arranged for our party to stay at the Imperial Hotel in T okyo. On our arrival at the Port of Yokohama we saw the beautiful big white British Battleship R enown with its escort of Japanese battleships riding at anchor, telling us that the Prince of Wales had preceded us by a few hours. Every available room at the Imperial Hotel had been reserved to house his large, glittering re tinue while he and other members o f his staff were entertained at the palace. So arrangements had been hastily made for us at the Seiyoken Hotel, where after a day or so when certain adjustments could be made we were quite com fortable. In the end the change in arrangements which had ~en a matter of apology on the part of our Japanese friends turned out to be a fortunate circumstance, for the next day after our arrival-a Sunday when everyone was on the streets or at a garden party or festival- the Imperial Hotel was destroyed by fire and the guests lost all their baggage. And so it was, having weathered the storm at sea, we escaped the second peril of the expedition- the Imperial Hotel fire.

The next morning after our arrival we were, of course, up early and out into the streets. For the first time in our lives we were conscious of being objects of great curiosity. Wherever we went we were fol lowed about. ]f we stopped for an instant we were immediately surrounded by a crowd of eager, pushing Japanese of all ages and both sexes. They were interested in our faces, our clothes, our moving about. They were never rude, never impolite, never. impertinent. Our smiles brought answering smiles, but never any undue advances. We soon accepted these manifestations of interest, at times with complete indifference, at times with friendly indulgence just as we accept at home the American small boy type of curiosity.

Arrangements were immediately made for our team to practice on the ' Vaseda diamond and with only a week's time to recover from the trip and to regain their baseball eye they started the series of games. The Japanese are intensely interested in baseball. The crowds that carne to watch the Indiana team practice were as large as those which usually attend college games here in America. These good humored,


demonstrative crowds were quick to applaud good plays, to shout derisively at poor ones, and to laugh at awkward blunders.

At our first game there were 6,500 paid admissions. As our team entered the gates there was a great cheering and shouting. My husband and I remained outside the gates for a time talking to some Japanese friends. As we walked to our places a little later another cheering arose. \Ve looked about for the cause of the demonstration when to Ollr great surprise we found that the appearance of Ollr own unconscious selves was the cause of the outbreak. The good-humored crowd was ready to a.pplaud anything. OUT smiles and American bows of acknowledgment brought further cheering and we slipped into our seats greatly flushed and quite self-conscious.

The heartiness of these demonstrations did not diminish during our whole stay in Japan. Wherever the team went it was greeted most enthusiastically and treated with the utmost courtesy and consideration. \Ve were showered with gifts of a ll sorts. \Vhether the gift was of great or small value, its presentation always conveyed to us the good will of the Japanese and the feeling that they were glad to have us there.

Tokyo even staged for us an earthquake, officially said to be the most severe in that city since 1894. It occurred during the day when our party was scattered allover town. My husband and r happened to be in our room at the hotel at the time. We had already experienced several slight quakes since our arrival and when the first little shake came on this day we looked across the table at each other and smi led making mental note of one more experience to !ltell the folks back home."

In ~ moment, however , this slight shaking increased to a violent jerking. This jerking gave way to a whipping motion as the earth rocked up and down, east and west, and north and south, accompanied by terrifying grinding, and groaning sounds as though the earth itself were writhing in agony.

\iVith one movement we reached the large window in our room overlooking the street. We threw up the window and stood waiting for what would come next, not doubting for a moment but that death would be our final part in the succeeding events. What seemed ages of time was really only a few minutes, and the earth seemed to settle back gradually onto a firm base again. Our building remained standing and intact but was considerably damaged. And so with


storm at sea and hotel fire passed, we escaped the third peril of the expedition.

In our ignorance my husband and I had unwittingly done the wisest thing by standing in the open windows. \Ve were told later by those who have been taught to care for themselves in earthquakes in Tokyo that the street is a very unsafe place because of the danger from flying tile whipped off the low roofs of the buildings; that the safest place is in a building in an open doorway or window whose supporting timbers often remain standing, affording protection, when all the rest of the building collapses.

Several members of our party were upstairs in an ivory shop. At the first shake the J apancse proprietor yelled "Earthquake" and disappeared before the boys could understand what he said. They hurried to the stairs and started down where they were caught as one of them expressed it "rattling around on the stairway like dice in a box." Some of the party were out sightseeing, visiting the temples in Shiba Park. They hurriedly quit the templt>S, preferring to pin their faith to more familiar gods.

A short time after ou r arrival in Tokyo the Waseda team ga\'e a banquet at the '¥aseda Club to welcome the [ndiana team formally to Japan. This was a six cou rse banquet of American food, served American style, with speeches of we1come by President Shiozawa of 'Vaseda University, members of his faculty and representatives of the Japanese Press, responded to by members of our party. The delicate compliment of conducting the entire affair in American style served to put us at our ease at once. This banquet gave opportunity for the two teams to meet in a fine spirit of comradeship and good fellowship to the promotion of which they soon found difference in language was not an insurmountable barrier.

Quite different was our first experience at dinner in a Japanese tea house, when OUT Japanese Alumni took us to the Koyokan or Maple H ouse, one of the most famous tea houses of Japan. Fortunately hy this time we felt quite at home with our gracious alumni, so that our awkward attempts to do the proper Japanese thing and our blunders served only as sources of merriment in which our alumni heartily joined.

The first thin g on arriving at the tea house was to take off our shoes and check them at the door just as we would check a hat or an umbrella in this country. We were offered Japanese house shoes but


to no purpose. The Japanese shoe requires a stocking with a special compartment for the great toe, and as our stockings were Dot constructed on these lines, there was nothing for it but to go in our stocking feet. I am happy to say the state of our stockings cast no unfavorable reflection on our native country.

We were first taken to a small room and ser ved tea. To the American notion lms room was absolutely devoid of furnitu.re. It was not a question as to whether we would sit on chairs-there were no chairs on which to sit. Around the room on the scrupulously clean matting which covered the floor there wefe a number of pillows about two and half feet square, and about four inches thick, filled with material firm but at the same time somewhat soft, and covered with silk of two shades of brown and buff in large plaids-not gaudy but quite pleasing to the eye.

On these pillows we were expected to sit in true Japanese style. Be it said to our credit that we did our best at first. After a very few seconds, however, we yielded to the protest of our untrained knees and toes and sank into more comfortable if less graceful positions. Our Japanese friends joined in the general laughter following our ludkrous failure to adapt ou rselves to forms of polite usage of Japan.

A number of waitresses came in kneeling on the floor to serve us. We~ere brought tea in cups with no saucers. There were no handles on the cups, and no sugar, lemon, or other "seasoning." A lacquer saucer was set before each of us with a bean cake-a round lump of sweet cake about the size and shape of a tangerine. The cak.e was a sweetish pudding-like mixture with white frosting all over it. In frank imHation of our kindly and amused Japanese hosts we picked up our cake with a small wooden stick like an enlarged toothpick and did our best with tea and cake. The experiment was not very successful, however.

After our tea a tiny wicker basket containing a napkin wrung out of very hot water and left still twisted in the bottom of the basket was brought to each one. This was the "finger bowl."

After a short intennission in which we were taught some Japanese games and strolled about the beautiful fonnal garden with its velvety grass and its cherry trees now in full blossom, we were taken to another room where the dinner was served in six courses.

CHILE: FIRST I MPRESSI ONS 425

CHILE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Dear Edt'lor:

Casilla 77 0, Santiago, Chile.

Perhaps it would be well for me to explain just how I happen to be here and what I am doing. I came out last August (1921) under the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church, to serve as a teacher in the Instituto Ingles, a school for boys here in Santiago. Those of you who still think of missionaries as long-faced folks who stand a r ound in long black robes, Bible in hand, under that everlasting palm tree are saying: "But why a missionary?"

My r eason is simple. r was grateful for the things that Christ ianity had put into my life, for the influence it had had over me in my daily living and I wanted to share it with others in a land where the need seemed greater than in OUT own United States.

I saw no visions: My desire for service came about in a perfectly normal, natural way as the outgrowth of the influences around me in a Chr is tian home. For me it was not an easy task to leave home and loved ones, but since I have been here my days have been so filled with new duties and experiences and folks have been so wonderful about writing to rne that there has been no time to sit around and get home· sick.

T was fortunate, too, in finding another Jl 4>, Mary Firebaugh Swaney, I owa A, here to welcome me when T came. You can't begi n to know how strong the bonds are that bind you until you get way off a t the e nd of the g lobe and find a perfectly good 11 waiting to make you feel at home. I have enjoyed so . much knowing Mrs. Swaney and we have had some happy times together.

On F ounders' Day she sent a beautiful basket of wine carnations to me and in the afternoon we celebrated by taking tea together at Gath and Chaves. We had to omit the songs as we hardl y dared burst forth in a foreign tongue right there in public.

As to our work: we teach, she in the Methodist school for gi rls and I , in the Presbyterian boys' school. T lfere come days of course when you feel as if perhaps you aren't teaching the children anything except English, history, geography or a rithmeti c, as the case may be, and then when you are in the depths of despair lest you are failing in your responsibility, something will happen, sorne child will say

some little thing that shows that the truths you have been trying to give along with the studies have gone home, that your seeking to show what Christianity means by living ii out day by day, has had its effect, and you climb one step higher and start all over again with renewed energy. The boys differ from our own in many ways and yet there are many points of similarity and they are a lovahle lot of youngsters despite their faults.

Now living in Chile seems quite natural to me and still there are some things which I will never get used to r guess. Among them are the reversed order of seasons and the boldness of the men who pass you on the street. As you blossom into spring and look forward to summer days we are crawling into OUT heayiest clothes and getting out our raincoats, for OllT cold rainy winter days are just starting. We moan at the thought of coming chilblains, for Chile has been called the land of flowers and fruits, chilblains and fl eas! Words fail me when I try to tell of the glory of the Howers here! The fruits too merit a whole page of their own. \Vords also fail me when I try to hold forth on the subject of fleas! I am a missionary and so must not use the sort of language that an adequate description of fleas demand! Suffice it to say that there never was, praise be! a bird, beast or fowl c reated with such a sneaky, low down disposition as a flea has. I have never been able to fathom lithe why" of a flea. Now chilblains are different. You can at least see some cause for them, though that doesn't make them any more pleasant. All Chilean houses are un· heated and when you remember that they are, for the most part, built like a hollow square with a patio in the center into which the rains pour in the cold wet season, you can understand that YOUT circulation might get poor and so make chilblains a probability.

I am slowly becon$1g accustomed to the Chilean way of serving each meat or vegetable as a separate course. The food, while sometimes prepared differently, doesn't tliffer much from our own and I for one have found it tremendously fattening.

To me one of the hardest things to get used to is being looked upon as a foreigner. I f you have never lived in another country you can't begin to realize the queerness of the sensation of being looked upon as different somehow. It is a good experience for it gives you a chance to get the foreigner's point of view. You realize then how many th)ngs, little in themselves, you could have done for the foreigner in your own land to make his stay a pleasurable one. If

you speak his language you could often interpret for him what is being said, a word or a sentence or two will often start him on the right track and make what would otherwise be a j umble of words for him an interesting conversation. Nothing gives you a worse case of the blues o r makes you feel quite as unnecessary as being in a group where you can' t get the idea even of what is going on. Perhaps now there is some girl in one o f your classes to whom you could show a kindness by inviting her into you r home for a meal. It means a little trouble, a little sacrifice on your part pe rhaps, but it will be tremendously worth while.

Our week days here arc pretty well taken up with school duties but over the week-ends and during holidays, in which this country delights, we have opportunities for trips and hikes. \Ve are part icularly fortunate in having a wide awake and interesting group of Americans here and surely have some good times together. During Easter week a number of us went up to Ch rist of the Andes ( the story of wh ich is doubtless fam-iliar to you ) . 'Ve had a special car (attached to a freight train 1) which took us as far as Lagwla del Incas whe re we got off for a visit to the lake. It is a beautiful little lake, clear, cold and as blue as a sapphire, tucked away in the mountains there. \ Ve took our tea by the side of the lake, for Ch ile is a land of tea drinkers and you soon get the habit whether you will or not. After a row on the lake we started our hike up to Caracoles where we were to spend the night befo re we started on the last lap to the "Cristo." \Ve were getting higher and higher a ll the time and before we reached Caracoles we were doing considerable puffi ng because it took a good deal of breathing to ge t a little ai r. \Ve spent the night there (and oh ! such a night!) thirteen o f us sleepi ng in one room on seven cots, the boys slept in the coac!h which had been left on a side track for our usc. Bright and early we started our climb. some on foot and some on burro back. Up and up we went until we reached th e statue which is located on the boundary line between Chile and Argentina at an elevation of 13,000 feet. The , ·iews all along were wonderful and the trip was tremendously well worth the effort. Some of las t winter's snow was still on the ground and the patches of white against the rugged brown peaks added to the beauty. The Andes are so big, so rugged and strong looking that they make you feel ever so small and unimportant somehow! 'Ve frequently

But there I I am rambling on and supper is almost ready. With one word more then I'll close. D on't c\'er waste any sympathy on missionaries. It isn't sympathy but irlterest that will culminate in morc volunteers for mission work, that we want.

tion. Teachers are informed of positions which suit their prepara~ tion, experience, salary, etc. They are permitted to choose and apply for whatever positions concerning which they are infonned. They may reject those which do not attract them.

The agency keeps the teacher alive to educational progress. To be informed means advancement with bigger and better professional prospects. It keeps the teacher in touch with the buyers of her serv~ ice and informs her of the "market." Teachers pay nothing until their membership brings acceptable results. Worthwhile placement means that service is never complete and final unless both teacher and school are pleased .


The National Teachers' Agency operates five offices: Philadelphia; Pittsb"urgh, Fa.; Syracuse, N. Y.; Northampton, Mass., and Indianapolis, Ind. These cities are centers of trade communication, finance and education--excellent watchtowers from which to view a great field of opportunities. Into these offices, by personal interview, letter, long distance telephone and telegram, pour hundreds of direct calls for teachers, representing every phase of the demand for men and women in the educational field.

PI PHIS IN THE PUBLIC EYE GLADYS HAGEE MATHEW

There is no doubt that the coming convention will be a SINGING CONVENTION with Mrs. Steere Mathew (G lad ys H agee, Colorado A) in charge of the convention music.

Mrs. Mathew has achieved unusual success on the operatic and concert stage. The following from the R ocky J1!/ollntain News of Denver will be of interest to every IT B ~:

"When Puccini. and Belasco created Th e Girl 0/ the Goldell ',Vest they intended to bring into the world of the opera all our own American romance and adventure symbolized in a sort of glorified unreality. They did not expect this lovely creature of their imagination to come to iii., but to-day The Girl of the Golden West has become a fleshand-blood reality in the musical world which centers about the Metropolitan opera house in New York.

"Among the scant half dozen extraordinarily promising American singers, Gladys Hagee Mathew has had a full measure of attention during the past winter, especially from those who are doing so much to make American opera really national art. And Mrs. Mathew is truly 'The Girl of the Golden \Vest' for she was born in Denver and lived there until her romantic marriage in New Orleans a little more than two years ago.

uGladys Hagee as it is still so much more natural to call her, was graduated from South Denver High School in 1914, and from the University of Colorado in 19]8. During her four years at college she was even better known for her charming songs than for her innumerable social and college activities . .

"It was Gladys Hagee who found time along with college work to sing in church and university chapel quartets. In addition she twice

PI PHIS IN THE PUBLIC EYE 431

sang the leading Tale in the yearly musical comedy, which was first established as 3n annual university e\'ent during her time. The girls of Pi Beta Phi still have happy chapter traditions about the 'thrill of Gladys' singing.'

IIBut Mrs. Mathew says she always believed that some time, some way, she would find ex· pression for the greater power which she felt her voice possessed. For this reason she has ne,'er been satisfied with her own achievements, no matter how others have praised her s inging. As opportunity offered she continued studying during the winter o f 1920, at the Institute of Musical Art. And just when she realized that nothing short of New York had Inuch more to offer her, a Mr. Mathew asked her one evening, very casuall y, if she would like to go to New York .'

"Steere Mathew, like his wife, is a Colorado product. H e was g raduated from the university in 1 91 7, where he was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity and earned the righ t to attach fE.E.' to his name. Henry L. Doherty started him upon his professional career, and it has N,..

not taken him long to reach the GljlD\'S H ACEE M ATH EW

N ew York office, the mecca to C % rodo A which all good Doherty men go.

" In the year and a half they have been in New York, Mrs. Mathew has put in eight hours or more daily at music, besides managing a tiny and altogether fascinating and New Vorkish bandbox apart· ment. Oscar Saegner, who is one of the most widely known and

432 THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI ,

respected teachers of operatic singing in this country, has been her instructor. H e makes no secret of the fact that he considers her among the most promising of his students.

'~14r. Saegner is in a position to speak with authority for he was the first American instructor tn opera. singing to place a native singer in a leading role with the Metropolitan. l\'frs. "fathew has already a wide choice from which to make her debut, for Mr. Saenger considers that she may count as well-rounded roles in her repertoire six difficult parts: 'Marga rita/ from Faust~· ' Mimi,' and 'Musetta,' from La B ohclIla .; 'Nedda,' from Pagliacci ; 'Micaela,' and 'Frasquita/ both from Carmen .

Hl\frS. Mathew's voice has a clear sweetness uncommon in a coloratura soprano, and a quality of restrained strength which gi ,'es promise of greater power to come. But a wonderful voice alone does not make an opera singer, and Mrs. Mathew's prospects are a thousand times brighter because she unites with her art a charming simplici ty, and what is most important of all , a passion for good ha.rd work.

uIf they tell us, genius is merely an infinite capacity for taking pains, then Mrs. Mathew is doubly su re of success, for sh, is possessed of the uncommon combination of a remarkable voice and a talent for making drudgery easy by undertaking it with love fo r the work itsclf."-Zilpha Carruthers.

It \\'as Minnie F reeman, now l\1rs. Edgar B. Penney, Nebraska A, who tied the children to her with a rope and led them safely to their homes through the blinding and treacherous snow.

Such resourcefulness and courage have ever been characteristic of this member of 11 B 4> who attracted national attention as a delegate and speaker at the last national hiennial convention of the Federation of Women's Clubs held at Chautuaqua, N . Y.

The volume of poems which Mrs. Kuder has just published is a collection of her verses which have been published in various magazines in addi tion to new poems.

"APRIL vVEATHER"

The poems in April IVeaJher have an appeal which it is difficult to describe. They leave the reader with the breath of perfume from the old-fashioned garden, with the call of the sea in his heart, with the great longing for the open spaces, or with the mist of the April rain touching his face.

Literary c ritics have pronounced the poems "always technically correct," yet possessed of an unusual appeal and perfection.

Mrs. Kuder is not a prolific poet but what she has written is far superior to that which we designate as IIverselJ to-day. The thirtyeight poems which are collected in April 'Yea/her show great variation Of moods and as a writer in the III,depeudclIl-Gazt//e of Philadelphia has said: liThe literary workmanship throughout is superior. Not only is there music in the lines, but there is thought and substance and a careful choice of diction that is most agreeable to the reader wearied with the crudities put forth by modern \rersifiers straining after novelty,"

Two of the poems which especially appeal to the Editor are: "Song" and liThe \Vet Road."

are given deJinite and systematic physical training. Various sports are taken up during the year, such as soccer, hockey, hikes, and basketball. This tends to develop strong physical bodies. Shower baths are required after every class or game.

At the chapter house definite rules as to the hours, sleeping arrange· ments, etc., axe in force and the chaperon makes a week.ly report concerning, among other things, the health of her girls.

Although these arrangements may seem rather inefficient, nevertheless the amount of illness is surprisingly small among the students of Simpson College.

EATING REGULARLY

Iowa [' has been striving to establish in the chapter house a set of rules to comply in part at least with the Health Program advocated by our fraternity. For this purpose we had Miss Winnifred R. Tilden, head of the physical education department give us a talk concerninlt things that would be advisable to do. An "Everybody to Bed at Ten· Thirty" movement was agitated and its obedience enforced. Rules pertaining to the diet, such as overcoming habits of eating between meals and indulging in too rich foods were made and a committee appointed to keep a watchful eye on our health Hcampaign," and to see that everyone had the right amount and right kind of exercise.

Iowa r feels as though a step has been made in this direction and will do everything to cooperate with those in charge of the fraternity H ea!th Program.

FREE M EoreAL CARE

I think none of us devote enough time to the important question of health. Once during the year we devote a fraternity evening to a discussion on health given by a doctor. He gives us general points about health, and instructs us in preventive measures. Our medical school, which ranks among the first in the country gives the student of the university free medical care in the university hospital. The university also maintains a student health department which conducts medical and physical examinations and gives free consultations and

HYGIENE LECTURES

The physical education department of Waslhington University requires a physical examination, at the .beginning of the year, of every girl registered in gymnasium classes. All defects and weakncsse, are noted, and the work throughout the year is an attempt to corre: t them. Freshman girls are also required to attend weekly hygiene lectures. The nlembers of Missouri B feel that their greatest opportunity to promote the health of women students, both in the college and in the chapter, is by cooperating with the physical education department, and also by having health talks throughout the year as recommended by our II B Health Program.

In connection with physical education every freshman and sophomore woman is required to have a physical examination. This includes heart, lungs, throat, and eyes. J)r.

Talks on hygiene are often given;t house meetings in the dormitory. The matron of the donnitory has charge of quite an extensive medicine chest.

So far this plan has not been put into execution.

college is required to undergo a thorough medical examination. Those who arc found to be in poor health, or are under-weight and nervous are given directions about improving their conditions, and aTC

told to report back to the doctor at stated intervals for observation. All students are required to have two years of physical training; and must take this work up in their freshman year.

Texas B has started, again this year, the custom of having a health talk at one of the meetings of the chapter, once a month. The committee invites some prominent person who is interested in health conditions, such as a doctor or a social service worker, to advise the girls. We have found this to be very enjoyable and profitable.

HEREDITARY ILLNESS STUDIED

The health of her students is one of Newcomb's first cares. The physical education department maintains a special office furnished with modern equipment for ascertaining the physical condition of every student. At the. beginning of each year the students are examined and the results of the examination filed. By examined, we mean in no sense, an ordinary medical examination, for, aside from the personal in formation each student gives about her health in the past, certain measurements are taken, height, weight, chestexpansion and others, and facts about the student's family are ascertained. This last information is helpful in bringing to light hereditary illnesses, thus allowing p'hysicians ample time to prevent their recurrence in the present generat.ion. If the proportions of the body are not correct, corrective exercises are given by the physical education department. A t the close of the year each girl is again examined, and a comparison made between her condition at the beginning and end of the year. If this comparison is not favorable her family is notified. The faculty and students of Newcomb heartily endorse all outdoor sports.

Montana State College has always maintained a high standard of health for its women students but the lack of a gymnasium has made it impossible to carryon any extensive work in women's athletics. This year, however, with the completion of the new gymnasium and

under the guidance of a fine physical education director, we are hoping for great improvements.

A girls' hockey and basketball team are soon to be organized and also five clubs, including swimming, tennis, skating, skiing and hiking. Besides these there are the regular· classes in gymnasium which are required of all underclas.'~men , and sp(.-c ial clas~es for upperclassmen desiring further work.

Montana A has always been behind every movement concerning the health of the women students, and this year will see many Pi Phis actively engaged in some fonn of athletics or gymnasium work.

SPECIAL R.:ST ROOM CLASS

The University of \Vashington requires every freshman woman upon entering, to take a physical examination from Dr. Irwin. If there is any reason why anyone should not take the regular gymnasium course, there are corrective gymnasium c1asses which help in so many ways to correct physical ailments and to aid in general health.

There is also a rest room c1ass for women who are unable to take even correcti,'e gymnasium and that is held in the regular rest room once a week, where the girl5 rest, completely relaxed, for an hour.

The chapter does not permit gi rls to attend classes when they have the slightest temperature or a bad cold. The house mother sees that they remain at home and the ("ollege nurse is informed of their illness. This prevents contagion.

For those who are not physically fit for taking the m~re strenuous exercises a milder course has been added to the curriculum. Outdoor gymnastics are participated in as long as the weather permits. The Dean of women is stressing the necessity of working on a schedule for recreation as well as for studies, in order to get the most benefit from one's work and at the same time keeping one's self physically fit.

In our chapter we have a health committee ,,~hich promotes the physical well being of the girls in the house. The committee has a set

of rules, one of which compels every girl to retire by eleven o'clock on college nights. We adhere very closely to getting plenty of fresh air which we obtain by sleeping on a large sleeping porch. To stamp out contagious diseases which are prevalen we have provided sanitary drinking cups for the use of the girls.

SLEEP OUT OF DOORS

The University of Oregon has done much within the last few years for the health of its women students, and Oregon A has a reputation for active cooperation in all health programs and requiremenUi. Our physical education department ranks high in this country. and espe· cially commendable is its corrective and clinic laboratory. Any girl who cannot pass a comprehensive physical examination is given individual care in this clinic until she has been corrected or improved as much as possible.

vVe also have a campus nurse who not only inspects the living quarters as to sleeping facilities, food, lighting, etc.) but also visits all the sick, and gives health talks at house meetings once each term.

Every girl in the chapter sleeps out of doors the year around.

'rRA I NED HEALTH SERVICE

O. A. C. has taken some definite steps in caring for the health of the students. A health service with a good physician and trained nurse is at the disposal of the students at all times. The department of physical education for women has a corrective branch. Every girl, before entering any gymnasium class must have a medical and physical examination. If she is found to be defective in any way, she is put into corrective work to be treated at h e r regular gymnasium hours. The H ome Economics department gave out a set of rules governing good health and .these have proved to be very helpful. Every gi rl in college must be in bed by ten-thirty week nights, twelve on weekends and ten-thirty Sunday nights. The girls get a sufficient amount of sleep and are more able to do efficient work. Our chapter en-


deavors to see that all rules governing our health are strictly adhered to and altogether I think we have very 'good health on the campus.

PLENTY Ol!' SLEEP

Strict social regulations, combined with an efficient physical education department, are promoting the health and welfare of our women students. The rule that all women students must be in by 10 :30 on week nights is vigorously enforced, thus enabling all girls to get enough sleep. Two years of work in the physical education department is compulsory, and a very thorough physical examination is given to every new girl befor~ she starts her work in the university. Special classes, such as Corrective Gymnasium, are provided for girls who need such work, and marked benefits have been derived from such classes. Health cards are given each girl and a record kept of her physical condition.

The chapter cooperates with the university in doing, everything possible to preserve the health of the women students. T t also encourages the girls to flgo out" for athletics, and has quiet hours every

day for study or rest. CALflo'ORNIA ALPHA.

COMPULSORY HYGIENE COURSE

The girl's health is carefully guarded in the University of California.

Each girl must take a physical exam illation on entrance. Then she is assigned to a gymnasium class according to the results of that examination. I f she is nonnal she is put in a normal class, if she needs rest ricted or correct ive work she is put in a restri cted or corrective class.

This physical education work is compulsory for two years of the college life. The work is not simple and easy nor is it too st renuous for the girls.

When the two yea rs' course is finished another physical examination is given which is compared with the first one and it almost always shows improvement.

A compulsory course in hygiene is given to the freshmen. This course is very complete in instructing the girls as to the importance of health, and its care. Special instruction is also given on any of the sports which allow the girls to be out of doors a great deal.

UNIQUE GYMNASIUM SUJTS

The most important work for the health o f the women comes through a highly organized physical education department. As each gi rl enters coll ege, she takes a st ringent physical examination and the r ecords are kept. The examining physician is one of the best diagnosticians available, and is in her o ffice for certain hours for free consultation. H er work is followed up with corrective exercises.

There is a lso a resident nurse who has charge o f the res t room "and reports infectious diseases in boarding-houses. H e r work is the more difficult as we are without dormito ri es.

A new sleeveless gymnasium suit has been introduced, to be worn with white waists which are laundered each week by the department.

In OUT house we have a study room, and certain hours are devoted to study and quiet each evening. Freshmen are not allowed dates on week nights, and upperclassmen must have good scholarship before they can go out. We have had little illness, and since most of the girls a re not far from home, they are cared for by thei r family physicians.

At the University o f Arizona outdoor exercise is encouraged. In her two years of regular gymnasium work each g irl is req uired to become proficient in four sports, one each semester. Two hours each week are spent in learning and practicing the different sports in their seasons-from swimming in the early fall, throug h hockey, basketball, riding, baseball, tennis, track, back to swimming again as the weather gro ws warm . \Vith such a variety of sports open all the year, every g irl with any athletic interest a t all gets a chance to develop it by competi t ion, and gi rls who arc physically lazy lea rn to play with the res t , and enjoy it.

CORRECTIVE GYM NASTICS

The University of N evada is attempting to improve the health of its wom en students largely through its physical education department. All freshmen and sophomores are required to take gymnasium work


three hours each week. Lectures are often substituted for the gymnasium work concerning the general hygiene and care of the body.

At the beginning of each semester a thorough physical examination is given to all freshmen and sophomore women students and all

others wishing to be examined. A class in corrective gymnastics 'works with the purpose of correcting all minor physical posture defects.

VOLUNTARV TAX

The appointment of a dean of women who acts in a supervisory capacity has been a great help in promoting the various activities of the women students. Athletics in various forms have been encouraged and indications point to active participation in these activities during the coming year.

A women's Test room has been provided by the university. A voluntary student tax of $10 provides for the furnishing of free

medical attention during the whole college year to the student who nlay be unfortunate as far as health is concerned. This feature of the voluntary tax covers not only medical attention but hospital treatment as well for a period of two weeks.

Massachusetts A has as yet no definite health program. \Ve have hitherto con fined our health activities to a general interest in athletics. All of the girls are more or less interested in outdoor exercise as the hest means of insuring good health. Some of the girls take long Saturday afternoon hikes out into the count ry j others are enthusiastic over basketball and tennis.

Several of the Boston Alumnre are either doctors or doctors' wives. The chapter feels that with their cooperation it will be able to work up a very creditahle heahh program for this year.

HEALTH CARD

Last spring under the auspices of the \\lomen's Athletic Association a health campaign was started. Each girl had a card which ",vas filled out daily for two weeks. In it were such items as: bath, eight hours sleep, three meals, nothing to eat between meals, exercise, relaxation for at least ten minutes. Each of these items counted a


point a day. Points were deducted for a headache or a cold. At the end of three months the girl who had the most points received a prize. This year the Council has voted to glve a certain number of points to a girl who keeps this card four weeks with fifteen omissions. These points count toward a girl's class numerals.

A series of lectures is given the two lower classes by the dean of the Medical College in conn ection with the requ.ired gymnasium work.

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON EDITED BY SARAH POMEROY RUGC, Massachusetts A

From time to time we have recorded in these pages the development of various phases of work of our School, industrial, medical, social, all of which have left a decided imprm on the community of Gatlinburg. It is a long time since we have devoted space to a discussion of the purely educational side of the work {rom the viewpoint of the schoolroom. Yet it is the oldest part of our entire settlement scheme and in the schoolroom life lies the greatest hope for the future. For this reason space in thi s issue is given over entirely 10 consideration of this topic and no one is so well able to discuss it as the highly successful principal of our Pi Beta Phi School.

TALES OF CLASSROOM AND PLAYGROUND

By HELEN CHEW

To tell you that we have a five-roomed schoolhouse~ 1 ~O pupils enrolled, seven teachers, ten grades, with courses in cooking, sewing, weaving and shop work would hardly help you to ,recognize our schoo\ as an institution sonlewhat different from other schools of its class. And no doubt the same everyday trials and pleasures of all schoohooms a Te experienced here, for boys and girls are alike the world over. But the little personalities of the children, developed through generations of isolation, g ive the school a character which is almost indefinable. It is through these little characteristics that you learn to know institutions as well as human life. It would take an able pen to bring our school to you in such a way, but adding this little glimpse of school life to the health work and farm activities about which you have been reading this year, you may be able to recognize the school as a whole in its vital relation to our community.

The influence of the school l and by that I mean every phase of activity included in the settlement, is not confined to the pupils or

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON 455

their families. When a situation requires the advice and support of the school, everyone is ready to take the responsibility, if expedient. The problem of the church house could not be solved without Miss Evelyn's advice and Mr. Mattil's aid in drawing the plans. Elections are held in the school yard, for which we supply chairs and tables. There is no other meeting place for public addresses and social gath· crings, and now until the new church house is completed al1 services will be held at the schoolhouse. With all these the real life of the school is its pupils, their everyday activities and pOSSibilities.

'f'ardiness and irregular attendance are two of the local problems. A glimpse of the roads, - without the pleasure of traveling them, would be sufficient excuse for truancy, most of our friends would say, and indeed they are-but the temperamental slowness of the mountain boy transcends his desire for punctuality and e\'en the brightest, driest days find stragglers at nine or even later.

One of the aims of education is to develop the ahility to use those things nearest to hand. To find a use for the natural Tennessee rocks

·which adorn the school ground would tax the wisdom of many. A stone for every minute lost from school would hardly clear the field for action but the result will be evident in the foundation of some future building. Nothing has furnished more amusement and gained more permanent success than the rock pile in the far corner of the school yard. This may savor of the old galley idea, yet the motive and attitude of the offenders were quite to the contrary. The scheme worked splendidly as long as the cu lprits were little fellows (the authority of the teacher is still unimpaired), but it was with fear and trembling that the same sentence was pronounced on the big boys. After much deliberation they began the rock gathering, giving the impression of slipping away every minute. It was not until the time was up and they were safely out of the school yard that the outcome of the venture was assured.

The result of the discipline was soon very noticeable in our outdoor basketball court which was cleared in this way and ready for our first game, in fact the first game the players had ever seen. The interest in the game was high, their team work quite good, but the skill in throwing baskets still undeveloped. The rain had made the court very muddy and the new suits and bare knees soon gave evidence of insecure footing. Their faces glowed with the violent effort they were making. Never before had the boys moved with such speed and


quickness. For once they were shaken out of their habitual deliberateness. It was not without its humorous touch. Several boys insisted upon wearing their caps which were frequently knocked off. Nothing prevented the owner from stopping the game to replace the lost article on his head. EYen Mr. Denton's IILet the old cap go" couldn't move the owner . A score of 70-1 would have discouraged most boys but not ours and when the weather penn its, they line up for dai ly practice.

The boys are taking another step forward this year by the organization of a Hi-Y.* \V'ith us such progress is very slow but two boys are going to the Conference of East Tennessee Hi-Y Clubs at Morristown which will no doubt b roaden their vision of school life, its activities and possibilities. We hope they will bring home an inspiration for all the boys.

The girls have surpassed the hoys in that phase of school life. Until this year the boys and gi rls have always had their literary society together, but the needs were so different that this year the experiment of dividing them has been tried. The success with the girls is very marked. Few high school girls of their age would show superior abiHty and poise in conducting a meeting to the two girls here who have served as presidents the first term. Their [ear of appearing before an audience is gradually disappearing and their ability to plan programs was shown in the Christmas meeting. EveTY guest was presented with a spray of holly which they were requested to pin 011 . Every girl answeTed roll call with a seasonal verse or Bible text , and after the entire company had sung several carols a very delightful program was given, every number of which was executed by the girls, even to the piano accompaniment.

Last year the School gave The Birds' Chris/mas Carol, and this year we shall give Lillie MI!1I. Nothing delights these mountain boys more than dramatic work. We hope to win first in the oratorical contest at Seviervi lle this year, as we did last year. \Ve are handicapped a little in these activities as well as in athletics, since we arc the only two-year high school that particfpates in these events. E\-en if we lose out in many meets now the time will corne when we can enter on equal terms with the others, and our place will be assured us. The latent abilities and talent which these children show is

Unsatisfactory as that would be, it is the best and only solution at present. Mrs. Dowell and the family of six in the Mary Pollard Cottage is the ex tent of its capaci ty. T hese are some problems which every year become more acute.

T his winter term see:; the beginning again of the noon lunch served to the you ngest children in school. 1~his lunch consists usually of one warm dish, sometimes a bowl of soup, a baked potato, an egg or g lass of milk wi th crackers which they add to what they have brought. They delight in si tting about the table in the basement, a ll saying their grace together before the meal and each taking turns acting as host and hostess when it is time to be excused. The time may come when the older ones also may have this privilege. Added to the value of warm food is the practice of preparing the meal, setting the table and th e unconscious absorption of table manners, quite unknown in their own homes.

An interesting experiment has heen made in the high school with the Thorndike· ~ l cCa ll intelligence tests which have been given to the New York City pupils, a test which ascertains the ability to obtain facts and ideas from the printed page. uThe results show an evenness and similarity of intelligence, a homogeneity of the group strikingJy in contrast to city groups of school children." These tests were graded by and the above criticism quoted from Miss Miller, the school chairman. One is often appalled at the ignorance in our advanced pupils of the simple facts which are required as a founda·


tion for all educational progress. Yet when you remember that every fact they learn is through conscious effort, nothing is absorbed unconsciously through the years at home and outside associations, it is no wonder that LORdon as the capital of England is as unfamiliar as Teheran in Persia, that California and Massachusetts are as foreign countries as France or Germ~ny. High school pupils who have never seen a street car or a business block, railroad t rain or brick sidewalks have difficulty in forming concepts of the social, economic and political institutions of society. These tests were especially wen-fitted for us because the pupi1s' knowledge of facts was of no consideration, only his ability to think.

Lest you receive the idea that the path of a mountain school-teacher is strewn with success at every turn, here are some of OUI difficulties and worries. In 3. number of homes, instead of making school life a serious business, there is a tendency on the part of the parents to humor their children in their notions. Then the teacher must make a series of visits to try to reconcile the sulking child without losing her position of dignity and authority as well as not antagonizing the family. The ·desire for an education is never great enough to rise above the usual schoolroom difficulties. Possibly three months later you will learn of the circumstance which led some pupil to walk out.

The attempt to hold a class together until their second year of high school is difficult. The present sophomore class was the eighth grade, of course, three years ago, and without the loss of a member it had reached its last year in our school. In October the first blow came when serjous eye trouble prevented Lillian from continuing_ Another loss come in December when Lana "stopped out" to com· plete her sister's term of teaching "up Baskins." An aunt required the services of a third dudng an illness. The removal of the Whaley family to a new farm upon which a great deal of work must be done, such as building and clearing land , took the oldest boy from school two-thirds of the time, leaving one boy to hold up the honor of the class_

Seldom does such misfortune befaJl a class in that way. Nine finished last year which was ususually good. The freshman class, though very young, some having commenced school when they were three, is a strong one. The eighth grade is weak, made up largely of stragglers who cannot possibly finish the work satisfactorily enough to enter high school. Some days there are two in the class, some days maybe seven, making progress very slow. Then again the

NEil'S FROM LiTTL8 PIGEO.\' 459

seventh grade is a large c1ass and a strong onc that can very possibly progress normally a grade a ycar, especially if we ha\'e a nine months' school year. The sixth grade is another strong class as is also the fourth, but the fifth is made up largely of those pupils who never progress by merit of work, too old for the grade, too indifferent for effort. The high school is rather free from that type because such pupils rarely reach those grades before reaching the age at which they can drop out. However, there arc very few boys of real school age Qut of school this year.

A class in agriculture for the boys and men not enrolled for regular school work will reach those who h:l\'c outgrown the schoolroom. By and by some of these older ones will come strolling back and then the problem will he to find them a place, a task for which onc must be equal in such a school as this. \Vith the spring work season near at hand the difficulty of organized progress in some classes is increased for the children do the work, even the very littlest tots.

I n spite of these discouragements each year brings us a little nearer to our goal. More children stay with us every year, parents feel the need and try to plan their work accordingly, and there is a greater desire on the part of the pupils themselves. Every year finds some of our pupils enrolled in other schools which can take them farther than we can. rr we continue nine months this year, for the first time, it wil1 be because of their wish. Our success cannot be measured by the facts stored away in their heads but hy their awakened desire to learn and to seek after those things by which the next generation of mountain people wil1 take a step forward. \Vhen we use this as our scale to measure success or failure the Pi Phi School need not be ashamed.

Very often one of our leading magazines tells the story of some mountaineer who has risen from his log cahin birthplace to a position of eminence in the prof~sional or business world.

SETTLEMENT SCHOOL NOTES Special attention is called to the Book Reviews in this issue where

the notice of the volume Sergeant York and His People will be of interest to aU readers who wish to increase their knowledge of mountain conditions.

The end of the fiscal year is approaching and all clubs and chapters are reminded that their contributions should be sent promptly in order to be credited on this year's books. Every year there is much burdensome and unnecessary correspondence for our hard-worked treasurer because of misunderstandings caused by delays which result in substantial sums failing to be credited in the fiscal year in which they were raised.

Mrs. Rugg is keeping a file of clippings of all reports of benefits or other meetings held in the interest of our work. Do not fail to send her a marked copy of any publication containing such references to our school.

Early in the history of our school, a leaflet containing a reading list on the southern mountaineers compiled by M. Alice Matthews was issued. Only one copy of this valuable l eaflet is now in the possession of the Settlement School committee and there is need for other copies. Anyone having a copy of this leaflet in her possession will confer a £a\"or if she will send it to Mrs. F. A. Rugg, 201 Davis Ave. , Brookline, l\fass.

BOOK REVIEWS Sergeant York alld His People, by Sam K. Cowan. Funk and

Wagnalls Company, publishers, 354·360 Fourth Ave., New York, N. Y. Price, $2.00 net.

So long as the human race endures, hero stories will be a part of the literature of all languages, and heroes' names will be emblazoned on the records of all nations. From the mountains of Tennessee, from a humble cabin home, came the man who did what 1\'larshall Foeh in decorating him said was "the greatest thing accomplished by any private soldier of all the armies in Europe." The author of Sergeant York and His People in describing the volume says: "It is but a story of the strength and simplicity of a man-3 young manwhom the nation has honored for what he has donc, with something in it of those who went before and left him as a legacy, the qualities of mind and heart that enabled him to fight his fight in the Forest of the Argonne."

I t is the record of these ancestors, however, and of his contemporaries, friends and neighbors whose lives have influenced young York. which has speciaJ interest for Pi Phi readers. for the author pictures a community whose characteristics are similar in many respects to the one which we have made peculiarly our own through our Settlement School.

How truly the author understands these people and how sympathetically he portrays them may be suggested from the following paragraphs selected from his pages:

"So the mountaineer to-day is the transplanted colonist of the eighteenth century-he is the backwoodsman of the days of Andrew Jackson; but his life has the hospitality, the genuineness and simplicity of the pioneer. It has been said of the residents of the Cumberland 1\'lountains that they are the purest Anglo-Saxons to be found to-day and not even England can produce so clear a strain. They are Anglo-Saxons in their blood and their customs. They are Colonial Americans in their speech and credences.

"They know they are not ignorant, except as everyone is ignorant who lacks contacts with new customs and changes in world progress. They are fully cognizant of their lack of that knowledge which Icomes out of a book! But, whatever their educational shortcomings, no one has ever laid at their door the charge of stupidity."


The book will repay the reader both as a story of a remarkable deed of valor and as a record of the characteristics of a body of our own people whose potential power for good in the development of OUT country is very great.

o APRIL 28, PI BETA PHI will celebrate Founders' Day in recognition of the women who had a vision, who dreamed dreams for our fraternity and to whom we owe our existence. VVherever two o r more Pi Phis are in the same locality they should meet and pay tribute to the wumen who in 1867 founded our organization at Monmouth College, Monmouth, Il1. Perhaps the most unique Founders' Day celebration held last year was in Chile. There in a foreign land with the sound of foreign tongues on every side, two Pi Beta Phis dined together in honor of the day. And although they dared not rise and sing Pi Phi songs they paid homage with their thoughts and memories. What are you planning to do this year?

AT PRESENT the widespread discussion among men's fraternities concerning the hiring of hostesses for fraternity houses is most gratifying. The discussion in itself shows that our young men are awake to the present-day tendency to disregard conventions and culture. From The Shield of Phi Kappa Psi we quote: "It has been the practice of the fraternities in many universities to employ a mature woman as matron of the house. There has been much discussion among fraternities as to the advisability of adopting such a plan, but the widespread distribution of this system would indicate that there is something worth while in it. There is no doubt that such a plan lends efficiency to the fraternity system and at the same time, places a chapter on a higher moral plane in a college community than would otherwise be the case. A tendency to neglect social conventions is rapidly developed when there is a 1ack of the restraining influence which makes the observance of these customs necessary." The entire discussion of this subject in The Shield is most commendable.

CHOOSING YOUR DELEGATE is one of the most important duties to be considered by your chapter. Your delegate will represent to the rest of the fraternity your chapter "type." Do not send a girl to convention simp1y because you feel she deserves the honor since someone else was elected president or received other recognition. Disregard personal feelings and choose the young woman whom you consider most representative of your group and who can also bring back the greatest amount of inspiration and national information to you. Send someone who is not afraid to rise on convention floor and


present your problems and ideas j choose someone who is a quick thinker and who can make decisions wisely.

REVOL UTION in the matter of fraternity correspondence may be brought about within a short time by the radio. I n any event it

may serve to put chapters into close touch wit~ each other and a lthough no secret work can be broadcasted, fraterniti es may be able to work out an "air code" even for that purpose. On October 13-14, Pi Kappa Alpha broad casted a radio program from the Atla1lta lOl/rna/ls station at Atlanta, Ga. The Georgia T ech and Emory chapters ass isted hy the frate rnity's Grand Treasurer furnish ed ,!11

excellent program from stati on WSB and thereby received much national publicity. ueh a mode of chapter intercourse may soon become a most powerful means of strengthening fraternal bonds.

IF YOU COM E TO ESTES PARK for cOIwention you will have t he opportunity to meet not only Pi Phis but othe r f raterni ty women as well. Sigma Sigma Sigma is planning to hold its convention a t the same time as Pi Beta Phi, and Zeta T au Alpha will open its 'Convention sessions on July 1.

508 THE ARROIV OF PI BETA PHI.

Since the last chapter letter, Maine A has two pledges to introduce: Margaret Boothby, Gorham. Me.; and Elizabeth Laughlin, Portland, Me.

Early in the lall, a visit from Mrs. Nickerson was greatly enjoyed by the chapter, which surely derived great inspiration to gain the best only (or OUf

beloved fraternity. Before leaving college for Christmas holidays, the active girls were greatly

surprised and pleased with a portable Corona from the alumnre. Just what was needed!

At present the university campus is fit for a model of Whittier's "Snowbound," a true fairyland ,in its snowy blanket and winter attire. But everywhere is the evidence of a fes tival. after ex:aminations. The second winter carnival for the un iversity will be a great affair. Preparations are being made to make this even a greater success than the one last year, with skiing, snowshoeing, skating, and various other ac tivities, including a masquerade ball.

The annual initiation banquet and dance i s to be held the week-end of February 16, and for this enthusiastic plans are being made. The chapter is ex:pecting a great homecoming.

The first dean of women of the university takes up her duties of office next semester. It is with great pleasure that the women of Maine are looking forward to having a true friend in Dr_ Caroline Colvin. Dean Colvin has been for many years connected with the university, and was the first woman to occupy a place on the faculty.

The alumni are putting on a drive for an endowment fund with which the new students' hall is to be started in June. This is to contain an armory and gymnasium as well as an auditorium.

"Convention at Estes Park in June !"-was not this on eve ry Pi Phi's lips after reading the December ARROW?

THE INTER· FRATERNITY S ING

Every June the fraternity men at the University of Chicago stage a funct ion termed "The I nter-fraternity Sing/' which is one of the most pleasing Panhellenic a ffairs to be produced.

Alumni of the various fraternities living in Chicago or thereabouts gather at their respective chapter housel at dinner-time and arc the guests of the active men at a buffet supper. Considerable rivalry is evidenced among the frate r nities in the matter of carrying off the attendance honors. Just at sundown the individual groups march to the campus. The many hundred spectators are seated in circle fashion, a large fountain being sit uated in the cente r. One by one each fraternity enters the ejrcle singing a marching song on the way. Gray heads and big turn -outs are greeted by vociferous applause. Then in !i n gle formation extending enti rely around the fountnin the men sing another of their songs. The Betas "Loving Cup," "The 1; A E Violet," II Kappa Sigma's Sweetheart," and our own "Sweethearl/' with their own peculiar charm captivated th05e present. The Phi Cams gave their Fiji yell, and so went a delightful program.

FRATERNITIES AT LANSING

Since the removal o f the ban against fraternities at Michigan Agricultural College a year ago, two women 's fraternities have chartered locals, Alpha Phi and Alpha Gamma Delta. Alpha Gamma Rho, which limits its membership to the agricultural division, has also entered the college. Phi Delta Theta and Delta Tau Delta both had strong chapters in the college for twenty-five years prior to the interdic t against fraternities. There is a widespre:ld movement among the alumni to change the name of the institution, eliminating the name "Agricultural" which they cla im falsely describes the college.-Tlle Scroll of Phi Del ta Theta.

• • • A BETA AT THE HEAD

The National Education Association is the g reat organization of American teachers. It has its membership all over the country.

The head of this big educational body is Dr. William Bishop Owen, Deni son 'Si. Principal of the Chicago Teachers' College at Normal Park, Chi cago. For some years he has been one of the most active and aggressive workers upon committees which h:lve been studying problems of the greates t importance. li e has attended many confe rences at Washington. H e has given addresses on educationa l topics in many states. Ilis election by unanimous vote as president was the appropriate reward for most valuable service . No one, more than he, has had influence in perfecting and solidifying the association llnd in rallying to its support more than 150,000 teachers.-Bt'ta Theta Pi.

• • • The Scroll of Phi Delta Theta quotes:

State College, Pa., September 23.-Calling upon the colleges of the country to lead in a movement for "sensible economy," President John M . Thomas, of the Pennsylvania Slate College, to-day addressed the students of the institution on "the n eed of keeping college expenses down to n reasonable figure." Dr. Thomas deplored the tendency among all cl::tsses of people to increase their personal expenses unnecessarily from year to year and proposed :l re form in the direction of economy in student life.

In his address of welcome to the students beginning the new colle ge year, the president urged the undergraduates to restrict their expenditures for social, athletic. musical, and dramatic activities. He said, in part:

"College education has become unnecessarily expensive . The sacrifices neccs· sary for many parents are more severe than they need to be, and a large number of sludents 3re handicapping themselves by larger debts for their educa ti on than should be necessary."

At a meeting of Psi chapter of Phi Ga.mma Delta at Wabash College on Oc tober 18. '9:12, it was decided to have :1 photograph made of the charter of the chapttr and to place the original document in 11 fireproof vault.

With characteristic un de rgraduate tendenciu, the e"ecution of the decision was delayed.

• • • THE FRATERNITV ~fA:-:

The man who joins :l fraternity loses something of his independence. lIe must submit to regulations. he must learn to adapt him'lelf to the conditions of home life, and to the idiosyncrasies of a score or more of people. lIe will often ha\'e to yield his desires and his rights, perhaps. to the will of the organit.ation, for those who go into an organization must be willing to do what will bring the greatest good to the greatest number. He must learn to get on with people, to give up, to be unselfish, to do that which will be most helpful and advantageous to his brothers. Man y fellows do not like to do this. and sometimes parents do not wish them to learn, so that such men would make poor fraternity men, and they would be unhappy and make their friends unhappy in th e making.-Dt'lta Kappa Epsilon Qllorlt''''J'_
