ALPHA PHI—MONTANA STATE COLLEGE

Each year seems a little more wonderful and harder to part with than
the year before it. Already the rounds of farewell entertainments for the
Seniors have begun and everyone is addedly gay to hide the pangs which
the nearing Commencement brings. We have only three seniors this year,
Marie Moobus. Nita Noble and Chloe Cox, so they are triply dear to us.

Lucille Staebler took the lead in "Truth," the Dramatic Club play which
toured the state and Bozemau is still talking about the play. We are certainly
proud of her. Lou also has the lead in the musical comedy to be given the
last of May.

Alpha Phi is delighted to present a new patroness, Mrs. E . Broox
Martin, who has long been a dear friend of ours. Our patronesses have
been so lovely to us this winter. Through their efforts we have raised our
money for convention witjh little difficulty. They gave two card parties for
us, with the aid of the town alums, and two musicales.

Initiation was held the last of February on our birthday and we have
four new sisters now—Alta Atkinson, Joy Noble. Violet Nye. and Ruth
Walker. Ruth and ' Bobbie" Nye are both taking parts in the musical
comedy as are Alice Stranahan, Helen Chase. Mary Maxey, Nita Noble, Harriet
Nordstrum and Peg Conkling.

The grade averages for last quarter are not out yet but we are confi-
dently expecting ours to be much better than they were in the fall
quarter. M. S. C. is installing the point system for activities and it Is
proving very successful. The co-ed body here is not very large so that there
is more than enough work for everyone to do.

Solvit Rivenes returned to school at Christmas time and "Val'* is with
us this term. Mayme Egan and Georgia Kelley both visited us at tourna-
ment time and several of the older alums came for initiation.

Mrs. Schoppe is leaving us at the end of the year. She is going back
to Maine and we are making the most of the short time left with her. She
has been such a wonderful help and inspiration to us all that we shall feel
utterly lost without her.

May Convention prove even more wonderful than it has always been.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if every single Alpha Omicron Pi could attend?

NU OMICRON—VANDERBILT U N I V E R S I T Y

The very thought of springtime has filled everyone of us with renewed
energy and vigor with which to complete the most successful year that Nu
Omicron has ever known. The house I have told you about so many times
is at last finished! On March 24, we formally opened it with a "house-
warming" for our mothers, patronesses, members of the university faculty,
and the other sororities. On the same night we kept "open house" for the
men on the campus. The gifts just literally poured in. and you can imagine
how proud we were to be "at home" for the first time.

A great deal of excitement was created last Saturday at fraternity meet-
ing by the arrival of two five-pound boxes of candy. The announcement
