WASHINGTON ALUMNA

GENERAL

We of the Washington Alumnae Chapter are all members of a work-
a-day world, and because we are primarily workers, the two evenings
a month that we snatch away to play together are all the more pre-
cious. Of course our meetings are not all play; one of our two
monthly meetings is a business one, but in one way or another we have
managed to have lots of good times together. One time it's a dinner
together with our president over at the War Workers' Hotel, and a
meeting afterward in one of the cozy parlors there: another time it's
a little movie party to see Nazimova in the photo-play written by one
of our very own, The Red Lantern; or a picnic supper and grand
romp out in Rock Creek Park. Sometimes we let the men in on our
fun and have a little dance, but usually we are too selfish to share our
play-time with anyone outside the mystic circle.

This association of girls from all parts of our country, some of
them coming from large chapters, some from small, from chapters of
years of experience and from those that are very young and wobbly

fraternity as a whole and to the girls themselves. I t has resulted in
an exchange of ideas on fraternity work, and a better understanding of
the problems confronting the different chapters, and at the same time,
in the broadening effect which always comes from contact between
different types of personalities, all inspired by the same ideal. We
feel, therefore, that even i f all the girls should complete their war
work with the expiration of the summer and leave the charter in
