   A l l that is nice enough, but the best news that Kappa sends is
that we have eight new pledges, who w i l l be " f u l l grown sisters"
by the time f o r our next letter. They are Lucy Somerville, Green-
ville, Miss.; Margaret Atkinson, Champ. V a . ; Virginia Allen,
Lynchburg, V a . ; Courtenay Chatham, Dallas, Vex. ; Rebecca La-
mar, Washington, D . C . ; Susie Mann, Texarkana, T e x . ; N e l l
Streetman, Houston, T e x . ; and Carrie Crane of Dallas, Tex.
School opened on Wednesday and pledge day, f o r a l l second year
girls having passed nine hours' work, was on the f o l l o w i n g Satur-
day. W i t h returning, matriculating not only one's self but helping
the many new girls, rushing, etc., there was quite a lot of excitement.
But we managed to live through it and do not mind it at all, nor are
we worrying over a l l the rushing troubles o f last year when these
people were freshmen, f o r we are so happy and are having "re-
venge" upon eight of the very finest "goats" i n college. This was the
largest number of pledges gotten and we are highly pleased with our
success. Hope a l l the chapters can likewise revel i n such luck. W e
were so pleased to have w i t h us f o r pledge day Frances A l l e n and
M a r j o r i e Hicks. M a r j o r i e has j u s t come f r o m abroad where she
has spent the past spring and summer in traveling. She is now
visiting i n Washington and will return f o r initiation. We have a
splendid surprise f o r our pledges that night and are crazy to tell
you about i t but that is a great secret and you must wait u n t i l next

To DRAGMA.

    Mrs. H a l Crenshaw, nee M a r y C r a i g "has her eye" on a good
prospect for A O II—little Elizabeth Craig Crenshaw, who arrived
some months ago. I suspect this is what you w o u l d call a case o f
"taking time by the forelock."

     Miss Willie is here now inspecting A A A . We hope a great
many o f our sisters w i l l be coming to see us, even i f you must " i n -
spect." T h a t sounds so terrible, but we are not a b i t scared. W e
 enjoyed so much Miss Safford's visit last spring and surely want her
 to be w i t h us a long while this year. Best wishes to a l l o f you f r o m
 Kappa.
