146 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA 0MICRON PI

Jennie has been spending the summer studying abroad. She teaches Span-
ish and German at the Pawtucket high school. Ethel (Remele) Willis has
moved to 187 Fall River Ave., Seekonk, Mass. She is just over the line
from Rhode Island, so is still able to meet with us, we are happy to say.
Her little Barbara is a darling! Our chapter president, Muriel (Colbaith)
Wyman, is spending two weeks in her old home town in Maine. Louella
Darling has spent the summer in Maine. We are so proud to report that
Louella's daughter, Elizabeth, is a full-fledged member of Alpha Omicron
Pi in Kappa Chapter.

Doesn't that sound like the "Locals" in the little old home paper?

While a lot has probably happened since last May, it is so elusive that
your editor has been unable to gather much news.

Our first meeting, the last Saturday in September, was out at Wake-
field at the home of Inga Bouve and we had seventeen present. I t was a
very informal gathering with Octavia and Alice displaying pictures and
talking madly about Convention and all that happened there. We only wish
all of the girls could have had the opportunity to attend. Inga served a
delicious supper and then we talked some more and took orders for Christ-
mas cards. We hope to raise quite a little money that way. »

We believe that a very effective way of sustaining interest in the
fraternity is to send out circular letters at frequent intervals, announcing
the meeting and reporting the latest developments. W i t h that in mind we
mailed a long letter in the summer reporting on Convention and a shorter
letter just before our meeting. Some other chapters may find it successful
and all the Delta girls who are away from Boston seem particularly to
appreciate it.

Wista Braly Ogle, Omicron, seems like one of us now and she is going
to be here another year, we are happy to say, as Capt. Ogle will remain
at the Navy Yard. Dorothy Church Shores, a Rho girl, has communicated
with us but we haven't been able to make connections yet and Clarissa Scott,
from Omega, is to be in Boston this winter studying at the Prince School!
Her address is Franklin Square House, Boston, Mass. Margaret Nelson,
from Tau Chapter, has moved to Cambridge this winter, and her address is
74 Kirkland Street. Before another letter we hope to report more members.
Ruth Wescott, Rho. who is one of our Vice Presidents this year, has just
recovered from an illness and so was unable to be at our meeting.

Our next meeting in October is to be at Polly's on the H i l l , so we
expect a banner crowd. And thereafter the last Saturday of the month
will be an Alpha O meeting. Everyone come.

For our August meeting, we were, as last year, entertained by Hazel
Alter, at a picnic luncheon at the Uplifters Club in Santa Monica. As so
many girls took their vacations late this summer, only thirteen girls were
present. But we enjoyed eating under the big spreading live-oaks as well
as the drive around the grounds, with its lily ponds, gardens, swimming
pool, barbecue pits and beautiful homes.

At last our tea to introduce the new chapter at University of Cali-
fornia, Southern Branch, that we have been planning on so long, has come
and gone. On September 18th, in the lovely garden court of the new
Woman's Athletic Club House, we were happy and proud to present the
Kappa Thetas as Alpha O's to their fellow-students, faculty and friends.
The University girls, in their pastel shaded dresses and cecil-bruner cor-
sages, looked like a veritable rainbow.
