ALUMNAE CHAPTER LETTERS

NEW YORK ALUMNAE

During the college year 1907-1908 the New York Alumnae chap-
ter held six business and social meetings, and at its annual meeting
in May initiated six new members: Helen Katherine Hoy, Nu, '03,
Helen Mildred Lewis Glenn, Alpha, '04, Elizabeth I . Toms, Alpha,
'06, Mrs. James E. Lough, Delta, Sp., and Mrs. E. F. Hanaberg,
Delta, '05. We gave a little lunch in their honor, and held also our
annual elections. Jean Loomis Frame (Mrs. J. E. Frame) was made
president; Edith Dietz, vice-president; Dorothy Lough (Mrs. J. E.
Lough), secretary-treasurer.

For the year 1908-1909 the new officers have taken up their work
with enthusiasm, and are planning for an interesting and profitable
year while suggesting the following program of dates and places
for meetings: Saturday, November 7, 3 P. M . , place, Mrs. J. E.
Frame's, 155 East 72nd Street; Saturday, January 16, 3 P. M . ,
place, Miss Edith Dietz, 217 West 105th Street; Saturday, March
13, 3 P. M . , place, Mrs. G. V. Mullan's, Andrews Avenue, Univer-
sity Heights; Saturday, May 1, (hour to be decided later) business
elections, place, Mrs. J. E. Lough's, 2190 Andrews Avenue, Univer-
sity Heights.

Also another meeting is to be held during the session of the
Grand Council in June at either N u or Alpha's chapter room.

Already quite a number of new girls, both recent graduates and
older alumnae have signified their intention of joining the chapter
this year; and we are hoping Florence Parmelee, Zeta, '07, who is
now in town, will bring the representation of Zeta chapter into our
circle.

SAN FRANCISCO ALUMNAE

The San Francisco Alumnae Chapter of A O I I is glad to send
you greetings from California; glad to know and to have you know
that the alumnae of Sigma have been able to form a chapter.

When a girl is graduated from the university, she feels that no
power on earth can lessen the interest she has taken and the absorp-
tion she has felt in her college life. I t has been her all in all. I n
fact, college is a miniature world. However, as she is gradually
drawn into the whirlpool of the world itself, her changed environ-
ment affects her outlook on life in general, and her chief interests of
college life slowly, but surely, fade into the dim past. Her new
work fills her life, after the first lonesomeness for college has worn
away, and she is so busy that she may be forgiven i f she sometimes
even seems to forget old friends.
