a huge undertaking at this time, but we are sure we can accomplish
it with the good-will of our whole fraternity to support us. The
active chapter members, in their readiness to support any plan that
will advance the interests of Alpha O, are a source of inspiration.
How we wish you might all know them!

Mrs. Stewart's visit was a most welcome event of November. We
only wished that we might have her near us always, but then, I need
not say more for each chapter has had the same delightful experience
and has had it end too soon by her departure.

The active chapter entertained for her at a tea for the university
women. The alumna; gave a little luncheon at Rebecca Jackson's
attractive apartments. After the luncheon interest i n what our splen-
did President had to say to us was shared by Nancy Pendleton Jack-

Ellen's arms during a part of. the business meeting. She is a charm-
ingly good baby, but I ' m not at all sure she isn't a bit of a flirt. She
seems unaccountably ( ?) fond of men !

Delta Gamma invited Mrs. Stewart to their fine new fraternity
home. Delta Gamma has some of the most worthwhile women on
the campus, and we were glad and proud that our President might
know them and they her.

Are all the chapters keeping an honor roll of their brave girls whose
husbands and brothers have entered the service of their country?

Our wish to you all is the old wish of a happy New Year with
added earnestness in this time of war.

to write a joint news letter to be sent to out-of-town alumnae some-
time in the early spring. When we withdrew to the dining-room we
found the table arrayed with many of Aileene's pretty possessions,
lighted red candles, not to mention the good things to eat.

One o'clock, December 8th, witnessed the gathering of a happy
dozen around a most attractively appointed table at the home of
Antense Hincks in Oldtown where a Founders' Day luncheon was
served. The curtains were drawn, and the electric lights and lighted
candles served only to enhance an already lovely effect. At the end
of the luncheon hour we were in a happy and appreciative mood for
our impressive ritual service. After considering various plans we
agreed to send ten dollars to the Girls' Home in Belfast, one o f the
