      We can hardly realize that in two short months we will disband
 for the summer. However, the plans being made f o r commence-
ment sadly remind us that another year o f our college l i f e has nearly
gone. W i t h the outgoing o f the class of 1912 P i w i l l lose a most
valuable member, Dagmar Rinshaw, who is one of A l p h a O's most
earnest and enthusiastic members.
      Let's see. W h a t have we done since last we wrote? We've had
exams, but then no one wants to be reminded of those black days;
we've had the carnival holidays which are imperative since M a r d i
Gras is such an event in N e w Orleans. Then, too, we've had the
Dramatic club play and numerous other college activities, including
the Founders' Day exercises and the celebration o f Tulane night
when " O l d Heidelberg" was presented by university students w i t h
no small degree o f success. A n d the basketball games i n which the
seniors, juniors and sophomores contested f o r the championship cup
which the seniors captured. Gladys made "goal" on the Varsity
team so we feel very proud o f her.

      As usual we are rushing—who isn't On St. Valentine's day
we had a luncheon in the room f o r our rushees, and, being very pat-
riotic Americans, we entertained at a George Washington party
which was voted by a l l to be a success.

      Isabelle Henderson stopped over w i t h us f o r a f e w hours on her
way f r o m Chicago to California. We were delighted to have her
even f o r so short a time.

      And now we are talking nothing but convention and wishing that
we could a l l go to meet our many sisters f r o m " f a r and near." But
since we cannot a l l attend, our delegate w i l l b r i n g to each of our sis-
ters a message f r o m us which can better be said than written. M a y
as many o f us as can assemble i n Evanston do our very best
for our dear f r a t e r n i t y which means so much to each and every one
of us.

      During the month of February two initiates, Miss Edith Chap-
man o f Jamaica. L . h, and Miss D o r o t h y Agnes Vandewater o f
Cedarhurst. L . I . , were received into N u chapter. As there has not
been much available material at the L a w school, these are the only
initiates we have taken in this year. The initiation, which took
place on February 19th, in our fraternity room at the Law school,
was followed by a dinner which was quite largely attended by the
alumnae as w e l l as the actives.
     As so many o f N u ' s alumnae are practising law d o w n t o w n , we
