Semester examinations are on in f u l l sway, and the most frequently
heard remarks are, "what'd you think o f t , " " N o ! I don't think it's
fair to ask for collateral."

The most important thing for Theta just now, is the fact that
today marks the "beginning-to-be" of our hard-wood floors. Yes,
at last, after many years of waiting we have our hearts' desire, at
least, we have it coming to us.

We girls have always thought among ourselves, that the only thing
our house lacked of being perfect, was hardwood floors. Now, when
we return from our semester vacation, our new floors will be here
to greet us.

So far, this year, Theta has had no particular social functions.
Sophomore spike still holds sway and only one big "spike" party is
allowed us this year.

The movement for the new DePauw Gymnasium is now the talk of
the campus. The new plan, decided upon at a meeting of the student
body, has worked wonderfully well.

This plan was for each student to pledge himself to pay some
certain amount toward the Gym, this amount payable i f the grounds
for the building be broken before commencement of 1915.

So far, all but sixteen of the students of the university have
pledged some amount. The object was, not to get money from the
students, but to show to the board of directors that the DePauw
students desire a new gymnasium and want it so badly that they are
willing to sacrifice themselves in some way, however small, to bring
this to pass.
