We regret exceedingly that the geographical list, so carefully
prepared by the Registrar, assisted by Mrs. Crane, Esther Vincent,
and Frances M c N a i r , of Rho, cannot be included i n this number.
However, the treasury of T o D R A G M A does not permit it at this time.
I t is sincerely hoped that the list may be separately printed, or
included i n one of the later numbers of T o D R A G M A .

Much material intended f o r publication i n this number has been
necessarily omitted on account of the size of the Directory. W e
would especially mention some of the M a y reports to Grand Council,
and the accounts of the installations of Puget Sound Alumna;; and
of Vanderbilt. T h e first account, that of Puget Sound, has been
set aside once before, and i t is w i t h sincere regret that we repeat
the process. But the September number is going to be alarmingly
fat as i t is, and we cannot omit the Directory.
