104 TO PRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

Seldom before have A O I I girls been quite so prominent in the
college world. Luella Woodman and Helen Worster began the
year by "making" Phi Kappa Phi, our honorary society. They
are the only girls who have, as yet, made the society this year and
Gamma is justly proud of them. Then, Alice Harvey and "Tony"
Webb have been chosen for the junior exhibition, and Tony is also
an associate editor of the junior "Prism." "Becky" Chilcott has
been chosen as class prophet for junior week.

As for class officers, Helen Worster and Alice Harvey are both
class secretaries.

I n Y . W. C . A., too, Gamma has held her own. Many of the
offices are held by A O I I girls and in the bazaar given a short
time ago, A O I I girls took leading parts.

And now, in closing. Gamma wishes a Happy New Year to all
her sister chapters in A O IT.

activities. That class spirit is strong among A O I I girls was shown
by the class elections. T h e secretaryship and vice-presidency of
the senior class, the treasurership of the junior class and the presi-
dency of the freshmen class are all held by A O I I girls, while one
of our seniors represents the girls on her class book board, and one
of our sophomores is on the Cornellian board.

Another event in which we were all interested was the "Cafe
Chastland." T h i s was a production given for the benefit of the
Girl's Athletic Association. T h e Armory was fitted up like a
restaurant and faculty and students came and were entertained.
While fifty freshmen and sophomores served refreshments, the or-
chestra played and favorite "stunsters" performed. At ten o'clock
the floor was cleared and we danced until midnight. T h e affair
was a great success both financially and socially. We are particular-
ly happy over the social success, since this was the first time that
men students were admitted to any affair managed by and for the
girls.

We were still in the midst of this excitement when Mrs. Farmer
came. I need not tell you how much we enjoyed her visit; our
only regret was that she could not stay longer.

Examinations and Christmas preparations next claimed our atten-
