148 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

as you might guess, she now has her master's degree in Chemistry. Upsilon
is certainly very proud of Helen.

Just before the holiday vacation we had our Christmas party with
Hazel Turtle as Santa Claus. What f u n and thrills! for Santa gave each
girl a card bearing the announcement of the engagement of Ruth Baker '23
and Carl Young, a Lambda Chi Alpha, at Washington.

We are now looking forward to initiation and hope to send names
of twelve new sisters of Alpha Omicron Pi with our May letter.

NU KAPPA—SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY
The winter term at Southern Methodist University, which has just
begun, finds all the girls back except one pledge Dorothy Palmer, who
being quite advanced in art has gone north to study. We have, this term a
new and attractive fraternity room on the second floor of the Women's
Building. I t is much larger than the other and faces the front of the
campus.

At sunrise on Armistice Day we held a beautiful initiation ceremony
at the home of Catherine Rasbury. We initiated Mary Reynolds, Kather-
ine Price, Bobbie Lindsey, and Nellie Sims.

One night in November an entertainment composed of stunts, dramas
and playlets was staged in Dallas Hall by the Woman's Panhellenic
Council. Two of our pledges Alice Kizer and Margaret Pepple enacted a
Midnight Fantasy. This was Alpha Omicron Pi's number on the pro-
gram. Katherine Price who was on the entertainment committee, was the
author of the title "Powder and Patches" which was used f o r the enter-
tainment.

Since our last letter we have pledged Celestes Charmickle of Little
Rock, Arkansas.

Our Founders' Day celebration was unusually interesting and enjoy-
able. There were many alumnae present and after interesting talks and
discussions on philanthropic work we had a beautiful. cake with twenty-
six candles on it.

Bobbie Lindsey has been elected on the Honor Council staff. Catherine
Rasbury and Lucile Pepple are on the staff of the Campus, our semi-
weekly school paper.

Southern Methodist University announces the granting of charters to
two petitioning fraternities; one was Sigma Alpha Epsilon and the other
was Phi Delta Theta.

One of our happiest events recently was a two days' visit, December
16 and 17, f r o m Melita Skillen. I t was so wonderful to have her with
us f o r her presence makes us feel more of the real meaning of Alpha
Omicron Pi.
