TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI 201

EDITORIALS

In Memoriam
There has been scarcely an issue of To DRAGMA which has not

brought to our hearts, great sadness. Very seldom can we omit our
"In Memoriam" page. And whether or not the death is in our own
active chapter we realize that it is a sister whom we may never have
seen or known, who has died, and we have the added regret that we
can never see or know her. I f every chapter who feels the keenest
loss would realize that every Alpha O has this sadness and regret,
they would do as Maine has done in this issue, and would tell us of
the life of the sister who has gone. And i f we could see the faces in
a photograph which we never can see in life, our memories would be
richer.

W i l l you not all send me pictures and some news of the lives of
those whom we must lose?

UNSIGNED MANUSCRIPT

A great deal of confusion and disappointment has resulted from
the printing of unsigned manuscripts.

W i l l you please impress this on your minds and always sign every
manuscript with f u l l name, chapter and year. I t is always a dis-
appointment not only to the reader but to the author to see her
good article appear without her name. But it is impossible, with the
size of the editor's mail, for her to recognize handwriting to the
extent of signing an article with the proper name. Please do not
blame the editor for this omission. An idea is always more interest-
ing i f we know who it is that has the idea.

T H E PRESIDENT'S LETTERS

For the benefit of the alumnae who have no chance to see them, we
wish to tell something of Dorothy Safford's monthly chats. She
has conceived the idea of sending monthly letters to every active and
alumnae chapter which shall contain bits of news, friendly criticism,
advice, and praise of each chapter and chapter activity with which
she may come in touch. I t gives us an added friendliness for her
and for each other, and we feel a community of interest such as
we have not felt before. Here's to you, DOROTHY SAFFORD!

DELTA

The Delta chapter girls wish to extend an invitation to all Alpha
O's visiting in Boston.

Just telephone number 21117 Somerville, and call for an
A O IT girl.
