    Lillian Wells returned to St. Louis for a holiday visit.
    Harriet Williams was one of the many Tennessee alumna who journeyed to

   Kappa feels very much like saying "Merry Christmas" to her sis-
ters, but that will be rather out of date when our February To
D R A G M A comes. I t seems better to say "Good luck to you on your
mid-year examinations.'"

   We Kappa's have been very busy this year—an outsider called us
"bones" just the other day—and yet there seems to be little to tell
about in a letter. The last few days before the Christmas holidays
were f u l l of the hurry and excitement of going home, but every girl
felt obliged to do her best with class work, and not leave everything
to be "crammed" after getting back.

   A few weeks ago we voted on "statistics," and college was all ex-
citement until the results were published. Virginia Allen was voted
the most prominent, and Susie Mann the best all-round girl in col-
lege.

   Lucy Somerville went to Washington a week before the Christmas
holidays, as delegate to the National Suffrage Convention. We have
felt her absence so much that we cannot help wondering how Kappa
will get along next year with all her '10's gone.

   Only three of our girls are to be in college during the holidays
and they will visit a part of the time. They are taking care of the
ntshees we left behind. As soon as classes were over the day the
holidays began, we had most of the rushees at the house for a few
minutes before everybody hurried to the train. But during Christ-
mas the fraternity houses are home to everybody, Freshmen and all,
and there is really little thought of rushing.
