TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI 225

Y ou SUBSCRIBE TO To DRAGMA. Get your money's worth and read it, too.
This is your fraternity, and your magazine. You should keep abreast of
fraternity developments; know what has been accomplished, by whom,
and how. Portions of our book are quite interesting, once you get the
habit, and we hate to think of it pushed aside on some study or library
table without even a desultory reading. And when you have skimmed
through its pages, we hope you won't feel that you must heed the old
warning, " I f you like this song, don't tell your friends." I f you do like
To DRAGMA, tell your Alpha O friends, they may be inspired to read it
too, or may even invest a dollar in a year's subscription i f they haven't
already done so. I f you don't like it, write the editor and tell her why.
She will be glad to know what is wrong, and will receive suggestions
with open arms.

17*ROM NOW ON we are adopting an "off-with-their-heads" policy toward
delinquent and careless editors. We will give praise where praise is

due, but the late or carelessly prepared letter or notes will be subject to
the direst publicity. Every active and alumnae editor, and alumnae
assistant has been sent an instruction sheet. I f yours has been lost, send
for another. There is no excuse for material on the wrong sized paper, in
the wrong form, late or missing, or careless as to general make-up.
Here are a few of the things that we wish:

That Iota, Chi, Bozeman and Birmingham would send their chapter
letters.

That Alpha Phi, X i , Kappa Theta, Portland and Detroit alumnae
would not be late. You are "better late than never," but, oh, so much
better on time.

That the alumnae assistants of Pi, Nu, Omicron, Kappa, Zeta, Theta,
Epsilon, Lambda, Upsilon, Nu Kappa, Eta, Psi, Phi, Alpha Sigma,
X i , and Pi Delta would send in some alumnae notes f o r their chapters.
The notes for those chapters in this issue were sent by persons other
than the alumnae assistant, in most cases a person outside the chapters
concerned, who was interested enough in the magazine to supply us with
clippings and other items.

That Nu Omicron wouldn't spoil the record by being the only active
chapter not to use standard sized paper as is requested in the instruction
sheet.

That Cleveland alumnae would send its letter on standard sized
paper, and that the Rho and Alpha P h i notes would be on the correct
paper. (The linotype man gives us such dirty looks when we venture into
the press room with material written on dainty note paper.)

That nearly everybody, except the National Panhellenic Delegate,
would not spell it "Pan-Hellenic."

A ND NOW having administered the sulphur and molasses (we hope it
produces results), we follow it by something more pleasant, as a half

an orange dripping golden juice is always nice after a bitter dose. Most of
