TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI 241

Howard; Alumnae Chapter Editor, Alice de V. Cagwin. We are glad to
have a Lambda girl as President, and realize the greater strength which
should come to us through her influence and guidance.

Our next meeting will be in the nature of a reception to the Lambda and
Sigma Seniors, at which time we also hope to have Lucile English, District
Superintendent, with us.

Following this meeting, will be a trip to Palo Alto in June, when May
Pierce has invited us to meet at her home on the Stanford Campus. This all
day jaunt is sure to be most pleasurable, as any of us who have enjoyed
May's cordial hospitality know.

San Francisco Alumnae Chapter sends greetings to Convention, realizing
to the full the responsibilities of the delegates, and the deep and great
significance of the work to be done at that time. May all success be yours!

PROVIDENCE ALUMNAE

Providence Alumnae Chapter has been unusually quiet since our December
letter. Not that we are ever very noisy, but the winter has been a decidedly
quiet one for us. Our January meeting was omitted owing to various reasons,
one of which was the weather.

The February meeting was held with L i l McCausland, and proved to be
a most enjoyable one. A program had been planned, but the afternoon was
so taken up with the topics of the day that the program had to be given up.
Our main topic of conversation and discussion was Maude Royden, who had
recently spoken in Providence, and whom some of us had the great pleasure
of hearing.

The March meeting was held with Martha Sheals. Only a small number
of members were able to attend this meeting. We are looking forward to
having our National President with us for the April meeting next week.
Welcome, Mrs. Hennings.

BOSTON ALUMNAE

In spite of a very severe winter and considerable sickness, our meetings
have been well attended and we've had such good times. Our only regret
is that every Alpha O in and around Boston could not be with us. We are
always glad to welcome girls from other chapters than Delta and we hope
every one around here will attend our meetings the last Saturday in April and
and the last Saturday in May. The success of our meetings is due to the un-
tiring effort of our president, in securing hostesses and making every one
feel at home.

The middle of January twenty-one of our girls attended the annual
luncheon of the Boston Panhellenic Association at the Brunswick. Our
own Lillian McCausland was to be the principal speaker but was unavoidably
detained. While Alpha Omicron Pi did not have the largest number present,
there were members from several chapters there.

The last Saturday in January was a bitter cold day but some twelve
of us journeyed to Swampscott where we were entertained at the home of
Madeline Perkins, with K a y Smith assisting. Kay is living with Madeline
this winter, while she is working in Boston. We were glad to welcome two
Gamma girls, Rachel Hall who lives nearby and Florence Greenleaf who
teaches • near Boston and was visiting Mrs. Hall. Among the strangers
present were Helen Rowe Foster and Mildred Simpson, while Martha Neal
Crosby came down from New Hampshire especially for the meeting. After
such a good time, talking, singing and eating, it was a blow to learn at the
station on the return trip that the train was an hour late!
