                                   IN MEMORIAM

     In the death of Alice R. Spears, Zeta Chapter mourns for one of
its most beloved and most zealous workers. Since the founding of
the chapter she has been closely allied with all active work, and has
left a place vacant there, as well as in the hearts of all her sisters
that can never be filled by another.

    At the time that Zeta Chapter was established Alice was out of
school, and so was not among the charter members, but was pledged
then and was initiated the following year. From that time she has
held many important offices in the fraternity, in 1904 being chapter
treasurer, in 1905, a member of the Pan-Hellenic association, and in
1906 and 1907, corresponding secretary, in which capacity she be-
came known to many of our sister chapters.

    Although kept at home by a long illness her keen interest i n fra-
ternity circles never lessened, and she was constantly appealed to by
the active girls for help and advice.

     Her sunny disposition, her brilliant intellect and wit were a
source of constant pleasure to all, and while she has gone to be a
member of the silent chapter, her work and influence will still live
on among her devoted Zeta sisters.
