ALUMNAE CHAPTER LETTERS

NEW YORK ALUMNAE

Our meetings have been unusually well attended this year. E a c h
one has brought out a new member or some sister we had not seen
in months. Last time we had Miss Colcord of Gamma and Stella
Stern Perry, who is usually too busy with social welfare work to at-
tend meetings.

We intend to devote next meeting to a study of the long expected
constitution and plans for securing a large delegation to the coming
convention.

SAN FRANCISCO ALUMNAE

In February the chapter initiated Mrs. Sumner of Alpha, and
Hazel Knapp of Lambda at the chapter house in Berkeley. Follow-
ing this initiation was a card party, given to the freshmen of Lamb-
da and Sigma. We decided that as far as we were concerned, this
plan to meet the freshmen was a great success.

Our next meeting on March 6th was held at the home of Celeste
Etcheverry in San Francisco. We had Isabelle Henderson with us
again, after her absence in Chicago.

BOSTON ALUMNAE

At our March meeting we voted to furnish an alumnae room at
Richardson House, the new womens' dormitory at T u f t s , in memory
of Grace Lane, Georgia Hodgdon, Kate Cousens Hodges, Myrtle
Hanson and Alice Priest. This will afford accommodations for
alumnae who may wish to stay over night at the H i l l at any time.

At this meeting we had the pleasure of entertaining Mrs. Helen
Eddy Rose of the Providence chapter.

Ethel Sturtevant was elected as delegate to the convention in
June.

On April 2 7 we are to entertain the active chapter at a joint
meeting at the home of Maud Carvill. T h i s is to consist of a whist
party followed by a supper. We shall have but one other meet-
ing this year, which comes the last of May, for the election of
officers.
