J^ambda Cjrateful for Ttyshing Assistance

T AMBDA owe their Mothers' Club a vote of thanks for the aid given during
      rushing. One mother was here to assist in the preparations for every date,

and we were not obliged to fix flowers and table decorations. They planned and
decorated small card tables for the prettiest and most original of our dinners,
a progressive affair which gave all the girls a chance to sit with all the rushees
for one course. They also redecorated the den during Christmas vacation. Especial
thanks is due to Dorothy Bogan Farrington ('30), who served as rush captain,
and who devoted all of her time for two weeks to the house. Her efficiency and
advice were the more appreciated since many of us had never seen this side of a
rushing season before.

      Our alumna? association gave us new hardwood floors, and rugs in the up-
stairs hall, which have improved its appearance immensely.—Eleanor Furst (A).
