ALUMNAE CHAPTER LETTERS

NEW YORK ALUMNAE

The first meeting of the New York Alumnae was held at the
new Alpha apartment on one hundred twenty-fourth street. There
was little business to be transacted, so most of the afternoon was
spent in gossiping about the past summer.

As the December meeting came at the time of Mrs. Farmer's
visit to New York, the Alumnae joined the actives in an informal
reception to her. Pledge day was just over, and naturally one of
the chief topics of conversation was the unsatisfactory results of a
multiplicity of Pan-Hellenic rules. We were very glad to have
Eimna Burchenal with us again after her long western trip.

The secretary urges all Alumnae living in and around New York
to send her their addresses, so she can send them notices of meet-

New Rochelle, N . Y .

SAN FRANCISCO ALUMNAE

During each semester, the San Francisco Alumnae Chapter has
four regular meetings. Both the third and the fourth were held
at the Sigma chapter house in Berkeley.

The third meeting, on October twenty-eighth, was a formal one,
at which we admitted Olive Cutter and Netha H a l l H i l l to mem-
bership. We had hoped to have with us that day Mrs. Greeley of
N u Chapter, but she was unable to attend.

T h e following week most of us had the pleasure of meeting Mrs.
Farmer, although the Alumnae Chapter as a whole did not have
the opportunity of entertaining her, as her stay was so limited.

Our last meeting of the term was held on December second.
There was little in the way of business to transact, so the meeting
became principally a social one. A l l had their Christmas sewing,
and Helen Bancroft, who has just returned from Europe, told us
of her experiences abroad, and of her pleasant friendship with the
Delta and Boston alumnae chapters.

BOSTON ALUMNAE
Our girls are turning out in such goodly numbers this year that
we shall soon have to find a larger meeting place than the Delft
T e a Room. We long ago had to give up our home meetings be-
cause of our increasing numbers, and it looks now as if we had
