   dances during the week-ends, there is always a great scramble at
    the beginning of the year to sign up for dance dates in the Date Book.
   We secured January thirtieth for our formal, and since the invitations
   went out last week, we are already getting excited about the dance.

       One o f our seniors, Eileen Everett, has received several honors
   lately. She was elected president of the Campus Lane Clinic Auxil-
   iary. I t is a society which co-operates with the Lane Clinic Aux-
   iliary, which is connected with the Stanford Medical School, to keep
   a social service worker from Stanford in the Lane Hospital in San
   Francisco. Eileen was also elected by the local association as dele-
   gate to the Christian Student Volunteer Convention to be held at
   Kansas City this Christmas. And best of all, Eileen is to be the
  Young Women's Christian Association Secretary at Stanford next
  year.

    The house birthday and Christmas tree was naturally the last fun
 before final examination week. I t proved to be the jolliest and most
 Christmasy of anniversaries, and many beautiful gifts were made to
 the house.

    Lambda extends best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year
 to all her sister chapters.
