164 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

girls were present, among them two of our pledges with whom we got ac-
quainted. As is customary, refreshments were served, but the girls were loathe to
stop talking even when such an attraction arrived. There is nothing that keeps
the interest of alumna; and arouses enthusiasm among the actives more than
these gatherings, and we plan to have them often.

Carrie Green Campbell has returned to the East and is now located at Port-
land, Me. We feel that we have a true and interested friend near us, and we
hope to see her frequently.

Celia Rice Gallagher has settled in Montreal, where her husband is practis-
ing medicine.

Once more the exciting and thrilling rushing season is over. At
the beginning of the year there were receptions, mass meetings, teas,
and any number of ways to get acquainted with the Freshman class.
Of course we took advantage of these as far as possible in order to
know the girls, and to choose the ones we wanted to rush. Then we

went to work with much enthusiasm to win the girls we decided

were the kind that Alpha O wants and needs.

Panhellenic decided that Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sun-

day were days for rushing. There were two periods on these days,
(2-4 and 4-6) and a big party on every Saturday night during the
rushing season. The first party was a victrola dance at Elsa Allen's
house. During the intermission, charades were played and clever
ideas were originated that night. Light refreshments were served
later in the evening.

The following Saturday night there was a mock theater party at

Laura Mordoff's house. Everything went off in great style. The

girls who escorted the "rushees" were dressed as men, and paid great

attention to them all evening. There were ushers, real tickets, pro-
grams, maids to sell candy, etc. I t was a regular vaudeville sho^
with seven acts. Everybody seemed to enjoy it—both those seeing
and those giving. After the show we all went to the restaurant (in
the dining-room) for supper.
