as president of the Board, and she still holds that position.                       I

     As the chapter with its wonderful progress outgrew the old house]              a
actives, alumnas, and mothers urgently expressed the views that AOI1                a
should have an entirely new house in a more desirable location. Only]               d
those who have managed such a step can appreciate what the Board!                   p
has gone through in the last two years. This splendid group of AOII,l               y
has been presided over by Daisy, and through her guidance one difficult             e
step after another has been worked out. To her persistent efforts;                  y
we owe the wonderful house which Sigma chapter now occupies.                        P
                                                                                    a
     To the deep regret of us all, the responsibility, the constant attention       t
to detail and worry that inevitably accompany such an undertaking
proved too much for Daisy's strength. Since last October she has                    U
not been well, and for nearly a year has courageously sought to regain
her health. Her interest in the house and in every member, old and                  t
new, has never lessened, even though she seldom leaves her home and
sees very few people. However we are most sincerely grateful that                    J
the past few months have shown a decided improvement in her con-j
dition, and it is the hope of everyone who knows her that before long               8
she will be well.

     Her unbounded loyalty, her patience, her wisdom, her true sorority]            r
spirit, the tremendous amount of time given to the interests of the!
sorority can never be told or appreciated.                                          m
