220 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

EDITORIALS

W H E N Y O U H A V E R E A D the notes of our Grand Presi-
dent on her visits to the various chapters, it certainly will
take a great effort to keep you away from convention, where you
can meet some of these same girls so interestingly described.
You will want to know Omicron and her home. You will want
to meet your far off sisters f r o m Montana and f r o m Maine.
You will want to feel the "golden thread" that binds us close and
closer to each other. O h ! it cannot be necessary to urge you to
be there. We'll all be

"Close bound in Alpha
Far and near in Alpha

North or South or East or West

It's Phi Mu Chi!"

H p H I S IS T H E T I M E O F T H E Y E A R when the Senior
X begins to feel that the bottom has dropped out of things
—that everything is about over; her college days are slipping
through her hands like sand. Yes, it is a hard, a difficult time to
go through. I t brings her up to the proposition that nearly every-
thing good or bad must end soon. But what a glorious thing it
is to think that Alpha O days never end—that every day of ou'r
lives is an Alpha O day! A n d after all, how difficult it is to
appreciate Alpha O when it is new to us or at the most, but four
years old. O, the years must go on before you truly realize
what it is to be an Alpha O ! And so cheer up, dear girl graduate,
there is still a place f o r you to serve—the Alumnae Chapter. The
best is ahead. T r y to believe those who have gone before you.

THE EIGHTH EDITION OF THE SORORITY HAND
B O O K , Ida Shaw Martin, has just come to hand. One
new and interesting feature is the plate showing the pledge pins
of the academic sororities. This is especially helpful in large
universities where the number of organizations cause confusion.
Of course no chapter can do without this book. H o w about you
as an individual? Do you know the plain facts about our Greek
neighbors? There is no better authority than Mrs. Martin's
book.
