Well, school commenced last week, and we were all glad to get
back—all who came back—and that was only eleven actives. But
we have nine girls—nine of the finest girls at Northwestern—
pledged to Alpha. They are Cora Hollen, Irene Henderson, Mabel

Gastfield, Iora Johnson, Frances McNair, Stella Olston, Jean Rich-

ardson, Florine Sefton, and Edith Shultz. . Our rushing season,
which was a strenuous, though a happy one, was f u l l of events
characterized by daintiness, effectiveness, and the red rose. We
greatly appreciated the help of some of the Iota girls, Louise Blood,

Elva Pettigrew and Mrs. McDonald, as well as Audre Walker of Pi.

Marie Veck and Mae Barlow,- '11, were back for rushing.

Several of the '11 girls are teaching: Merle Anderson, Edith
Moody, Avaline Kendig and Margaret Wyne. Fay Smith, '10, is
teaching at Knoxville, 111. Marie Veck is in the registrar's office at

New York.

Merva Dolsen is now Mrs. A. J. Hennings. Louise and Julia
Norton have recently announced their engagements.

With one week of school behind us, f u l l of happiness and success,

we are looking forward to 35 weeks of great prosperity for Alpha.

May our "looking' be not in vain, and all our fondest wishes f u l -
filled.
