                     The prize of $10.00 for the best story appearing in the magazine was
               given to Lorraine Jones ( N u ) , for her story about Gertrude Lynahan.
                Eva Jean Wrather ( N u O m i c r o n ) , earned the $5 award given to the
                best active chapter editor. Octavia Chapin introduced the toastmistress,
                Pinckney Glantzberg. The theme of the toasts was, "The Greek and his
                Neighbor," Edith Anderson speaking for the national group. The dis-
                tricts were represented by Audrey Buratti (Kappa Theta), Martha
                Crane (Alpha Pi), Harriet Pratt (Tau), Lillian Cox ( N u Kappa), Kath-
                ryn Brown ( C h i ) , and Dorothy Jackson (Omega). Miss W y m a n spoke
                on "The A r t of Living Together" and Mrs. Perry on "From the Heights
                of Olympus."

                     You know about the old Greek custom of giving an apple to the
                fairest and the finest, don't you? A n apple because i t is perfect and
                typifies beauty, health and prosperity. What could have been more
                fitting then than for Sylvia Sutcliffe Crowell (Psi), to give a gift of apples
                to our Founders. T h e n the actives came w i t h their g i f t of roses, given
                by Elizabeth Williams (Kappa Omicron), and Harriet Dunham ( N u ) .
                Alice Cullnane presented two silver water pitchers to M a r y Barvian in
                appreciation of the fine hostessship Epsilon has shown. I t was a gay
                way in which to part.

                     A pause before we parted though, and softly we sang together:

                                                                Still heart in heart
                                              ' Still hand in hand

                                                                 Though we depart we stand
                                                                Still heart in heart
                                                                 Still hand in hand.
