TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI  173

      We are also watching with great interest the musical career of Iva
Smith O'Hair, who is appearing under the name of Nolanne O'Hair. On
Nov. 5th in the Carnegie Hall Studios in New York she sang with six
other artists, giving an American Composer Afternoon of Music before the
Madrigal Club. Mrs. O'Hair gave a group of Fay Foster's songs. A n
interesting feature of the program was the presence of the composers them-
selves, who played their own groups f o r the artists who sang them.

      Verne Laming and her mother will spend the winter in Fort Wayne.
Last spring Allison MacLachlan Murphy entertained the Alpha O's living
in Fort Wayne and Verne says their intention is to get together more often
this winter.

      Mabel Allen White, whose home is in Sacramento, Cal., has spent
most of the last year in recovering f r o m some nervous trouble. She is
looking forward to a visit in Indianapolis with her parents and other
Alpha O's living there.

      In September Avis Kelley Etter removed to Greencastle and is living
next to the Phi Psi House and across from the Lambda Chi. These keep
her informed that there is a college in town, otherwise she might not be
so closely connected with college affairs as she has four children to keep
her at home.

      Estella Montgomery is teaching again in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., and
she sends us the message 'that she would be glad to meet Alpha O's who
are wintering in the Southland.

      I f anyone is truly enthusiastic over her work that person is Flora
Frazier. She desired to be in Chicago this winter in order to be a
Grand Opera fan and she has surely had her wishes come true. She is
teaching Latin in a very select girls' school located at 1106 Lakeshore
Drive, Chicago. Now that she has become adjusted to her new work she
plans to continue her study of voice.

                                                          MARRIAGES

      A recent letter from Edna Glendining reveals the fact that she was
married Dec. 24, 1921, to M r . Kenneth O. Reiff. During the past year they
have been traveling through the United States and Canada, and in the
spring they expect to visit South America. Mrs. Reiff's permanent ad-
dress is Bryant, Ind.

      On Dec. 24, 1922, Cora Frazier was married to M r . Rudolph Jesse at
the home of the bride's sister in Ben Davis, Ind. The wedding which
occurred at noon, was followed by a Christmas dinner. Although this
was a family party, Lucy Allen was most happy to be included. M r . and
Mrs. Jesse will make their home at 202 E. 56th St., Chicago, 111.

      At last it is a reality! The long talked of, much be-sung, but little
expected new Chem. Lab has arrived! A t least a red brick building with
that name carved over the doorway has appeared on Sawyer Ave., just in
front of the back of the Girl's Gymnasium. I t surely was a shock to see
