NEW ORLEANS

It has been so long since our last meetings that an account of them
seems rather stale, but there is really nothing else to tell you about. Our
May meeting, which was at Anna McLellan Kastler's, was devoted to a
discussion of plans f o r a party for the actives. The result was a bridge
party given at the home of Louise Church, and, though there were fewer
present than we had hoped for, every one seemed to have a good time.
Usually there is no meeting in June, but we made an attempt this year
to have one. I say an attempt, because only five or six showed up at the
Renshaw's. However, we had a delightful time, the discussion being chiefly
on finances and Mildred Renshaw Stouse's adorable babies, who were
present. -
While on the subject of the Renshaws, I must tell you that Dagma K.
LeBreton has accepted an appointment in the French department at New-
comb. W e congratulate both Dagma and Newcomb. And Gladys Anne
Renshaw is to have a book published very soon. As might be expected it is
quite an unusual type of book, being a collection of games and puzzles and
stories in French to be used in the class room.
As many as possibly can have left New Orleans for cooler places.
Margaret Lyon, having returned f r o m convention, is spending the remain-
der of the summer on the Gulf coast. Andrea Martinez is making an
extended tour in the northwest and Anna Kastler is in Chicago.
Because of our depleted ranks and f o r other reasons, our work has
practically stopped, but we really haven't forgotten i t ; it's only that this
is vacation time. We have two clinics now operating, though the second
one, the Lucv Renaud Clinic, has never been formally opened and dedicated.
By the time" the next letter is due we hope to be hard at work again and
to have something really interesting to tell you.

BANGOR
This season of the year is Bangor alumnae's quiet time. Our girls are
scattered with their families and it's hard to get together. Next week, how-
ever, we are planning a grand picnic at Phillip's Lake. Lennie Copeland,
Rita' Bickford, Betty Bright and Helen Cleaves expect to be with us and
we hope that others of our absentee members can be there. Our annual
picnic is a red letter day for both active and alumnae girls. We can
hardly wait for reports from convention. Three of our girls, Estelle Beau-
pre, Kay Stewart and Marion Jordan, and Gamma's delegate, Beulah
Osgood, made the trip in Estelle's car, without a single mishap, not even
