18 TO DRAG MA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI TO DRAG MA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

COME GIRLS! SING GIRLS! V.

Music CHORUS of Sailing by Godfrey Marks I f anybody tries to down our Upsilon of Seattle
Or plucky Minnesota Tau he'll simply lose the battle;
Words by C H A R L O T T E H A L L ( Y , ' 1 7 ) . While grave old Jackson Delta says that Eta is so young
She'll have to make herself a name before i t can be sung.
Then here's to our red rose and here's to our jewel so bright!
We will banish care and sadness here tonight. Chorus
Alpha, Alpha, Alpha girls are we; VI.
We're proud of thy name, we're proud of thy fame,
Our dear Fraternity! Zeta of Nebraska has led us far along
Come girls! Sing girls! And largely 'tis to her we owe that we can sing this song.
Sing i t and then again! Then down in old Virginia see gracious Kappa wait
We love thy name, we love thy fame, To welcome the convention that we all anticipate.
Our dear Fraternity!
CONVENTION SONG
A CHAPTER BALLAD
TUNE : Russian Hymn Words by C A M I L L A JENNISON ( X
T U N E j Wait for the Wagon
I.
Words by VIRGINIA W I T H E R S ( I I , ' 0 9 )
We come from far and near
I.
At Newcomb is a chapter, they call that chapter Pi, Yet we are sisters,
And every girl's a cross between book-worm and butterfly.
Nu chapter is at New York U . of which we stand in awe; Loyal and true to dear Alpha O.
For there the maidens are inclined to subjects like the law.
We stand together now
Chorus
Close bound in Alpha, Pledging our allegiance
Far and near in Alpha,
North or South or East or West, Honor to her we will ever show.
It's * M X !
II.
II.
Sigma out in Berkeley and Gamma down in Maine We see our banner wave
Face the oceans set apart by peak and rolling plain.
Nu Kappa down in Texas, Epsilon at Cornell Proudly above us
Holds out a hand of fellowship and knows the grip right well.
Stirring each breast with its message so bright.
Chorus
III. Ever our sacrifice

Lambda lives at Stanford, at Syracuse is Chi, Loyalty, devotion
A lively lot, so rumor says; they'll gladly tell you why.
Iota at the U . of I . , O loyal Illinois 1 We pledge to thee, our dear red and white.
With Rho at great Northwestern can share her Alpha joy.
III.
Chorus
IV. When we are far apart

Montana State holds Alpha Phi, there's Theta at De Pauw, Though hills divide us,
As thriving chapters, so they say, as ever college saw.
Omicron of Tennessee, and Indiana's Beta Phi Yet we're united in thought and aim.
W i l l slip a little nonsense in, on that you may rely.
Living in charity
Chorus
Purity and honor

Proving, dear Alpha O, we love thy name!

REUNION

T U N E : Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms

Words by A N N E T T E M A C K N I G H T (A

Once again we are meeting with handclasp so firm
And the warm glow of love in our eyes,
Sisters all, or from North or from South, East, or West,
For we're bound by the same dear loved ties.

May we strengthen each other and all lend a hand.
You may help me far clearer to see;
Alpha O will inspire each one of our band,
Joined together in fraternity.
