school this semester but they are always with us at "spreads" and

other affairs.
We are all planning to attend the luncheon which the Chicago

Alumnae will give soon for all Alpha O's, living near the city. Rho
gives a dance April 26, which we hope will be a very enjoyable one.
We are to have stunts the first part of the evening followed by a
supper and cotillion.

From now on until June will be a very busy time at Northwestern,
for most of the big college affairs take place in the spring. We
send our best wishes to all our sisters, and hope that any of you
who pass this way will not forget to make Rho a visit.

LAMBDA. L E L A N D STANFORD JR. UNIVERSITY

The past months have been crowded f u l l of so many pleasant
things for Lambda, that 1 scarcely know where to begin my account,
but I think items of college interest shall come first.

On January 25, the girls of the university under the auspices of
the Woman's League gave a Pre-Panama exposition in the Zoology
Building. Each sorority and girl's organization, together with the
faculty women and alumnae had a booth where some attraction was
presented. There were minstrel shows, "eats" of all kinds, stunts,
a midway, moving pictures, a cafe chantant, just every thing you
can imagine to gather in the shekels and swell the fund for the
new woman's club house. Alpha Omicron Pi had a Spanish booth,
where fortunes were told and chances were sold on the big "tamale,"
a Stanford shield wrapped to represent a tamale. The whole affair
was a pronounced success.

On February 7, the dramatic organization Sword and Sandals pre-
sented Henry Miller's dramatization of Dicken's "Tale of Two
Cities," "The Only Way." I t was remarkably well interpreted.
The sophomore class gave "On the Quiet," February 28, with much
credit to the class. March eighth and ninth, was given over to
Founders' Day observances. Saturday evening, March eighth, the
Founders' Day banquet was given in Encina Hall. This banquet has
formerly l>een given in San Francisco, but was held here this year in
order to allow more students to attend. Founders' Day proper was
observed in the Assembly Hall March ninth, with an address by Dr.
Henry Van Dyke. The exercises were very impressive, the seniors
appearing in caps and gowns and marching to the hall in a body,
and from there to the Mausaleum to do honor to our benefactors.

Track, baseball and crew occupy the minds of those athletically
inclined just at present. We have developed so far this season
three very excellent teams, and the prospects look dark for Cali-
fornia in the big meet and the baseball series.
