68 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

       Two new members for Detroit are Mrs. Miles B. Stephens and Mrs.
 Clarke. May we urge any Alpha O's who come to Detroit to look us up.
 We extend to you a hearty welcome.

                                                                                                   RUTH HARDING.

       We have been scattered about among the few cool spots in the state
 through the summer, yet there have been enough left in town to have
 four or five tables of bridge every two weeks. This has been quite a
 pleasure to all concerned and it helps wonderfully in keeping the interest
 alive through the dull season.
       We are hoping to have a large number in our chapter this year.
 Florence Tyler, who was formerly our president, will be in the city taking
 special work in Peabody College. Nell Fain will be in Vanderbilt getting
 her M . A . She has been attending Peabody this summer.
       We are contracting the spirit of rushing from the actives and expect
to help them as much as the law allows.
       Mary John Overall McCullough (Mrs. Dewey) has moved to St.
Louis where she will join her husband. We are so sorry to lose Mary
John from our chapter.

                                                                                           HELEN H . MORFORD.

                             CLEVELAND ALUMNAE
      Our chapter has not yet organized for the winter's activities, so that
I have no news of interest for the November To DRAGMA.
      By the time the next letter is due T hope to have an outline of our
proposed program f o r this year to send in. but at present all I have is a
sincere wish of "good hunting" in rushing for all of our undergraduate
sisters.

                                                                                 EVELYN H r E B E R SCHNELL.

                    CHAMPAIGN-URBANA ALUMNAE
      No letter.

                               MEMPHIS ALUMNAE
      A f t e r a pleasant summer, our various members are back in Memphis,
ready for work. During the summer we lost Julia Rather, who married
and moved to Mississippi.
      Quite a number of our chapter roll are teaching this year. Sadie
Ramsay and Dorothy Nolan are at Central High School. Elizabeth Clinton
is patiently teaching at grammar school because she cannot get into high
until she has some experience.
      Adelaide Gladden is working at the Cossit Library. Linda Best
Terry is working very hard as president of the Parent-Teachers' Associa-
tion of Snowden school. lone Mathis Adams is president of the Renais-
sance.
      In September our chapter was hostess to Panhellenic. We met with
Dorothy Nolan who is president of the city Panhellenic this year. A t
each meeting we study some of the new books of the day or have talks
on subjects of general interest. We have representatives f r o m a large
number of fraternities and a good membership.

                                                                                          ELIZABETH CLINTON.

                         MIAMI V A L L E Y ALUMNAE
      The world at large must have been startled on September 16, by the
elegantly worded account of our first alumnae rush party which appeared
in the Hamilton papers. We who had been at the party were astonished
to learn of the unusual splendor of the affair. Stripped of all glowing
phrases the facts are: the Miami Valley chapter gave a rush party for
