Mr. and Mrs. John S. Boulden of Wyoming, Ohio, announce the birth of a son, John Searles on December 9 at Cin- cinnati. Mrs. Boulden was formerly Betty Sears ('25).
A nice letter was received not long ago by the Cincinnati girls from Jimmie Hughes ('26) telling us that after a most successful summer as Councilor at a girl's camp in Denmark, Maine; she was planning to attend Columbia University to work for her master's degree in physi- cal education. Last winter Jimmie was on the faculty of the University of Cin- cinnati, and the news that she will not be with us again this year is most dis- appointing. We shall miss her greatly.

please, everybody! Send in any items of news and interest to me whenever you gm. Address Mrs. Morgan Gordon, 3503 Gillespie Avenue, Nashville, Tennes- see. Really now, if you know of some "alum" who has done something inter- esting, pass it on-- there are others who would love to hear about her. And as for the brevity of this letter, well, it's
all I knew to tell.
Let's see now, people usually want to know what last year's graduates are do- ing. Elizabeth Frazier and Frances Ewing are taking their master's degrees at Van- derbilt. Margaret Fraser, who visited here in January, is teaching school in Huntsville, Alabama. Jessie Garnet is enjoying staying at home and getting ac- quainted with people in Birmingham to
which they recently moved from Virginia. Then there's Dorothy Overall who is do- ing splendidly in New York, working in the sales statistics department of Macy's. Frances Carter, who won a scholarship to Duke University this year, was home for the Christmas holidays, looking fine and very enthusiastic over school. Of course we are awfully glad that three of them elected to stay in Nashville. Flor- ence Hayes is taking a business course
ikt Watkins Institute; Mildred Cisco is Psi
teaching in the city public schools, and Margaret Rawls is doing library work. We've enjoyed having these girls at our meetings.
Recently Helen Dodd ('29), made a flying visit with Nashville friends on her way back to Hugo, Oklahoma, where she is teaching this winter. She came to Tennessee with her mother at the death of her uncle. Daisy Tucker Foster ('29), had a very busy week early last fall. She accepted a secretarial position
at the Methodist Publishing House and married John K . Foster, all within a few days. They have a lovely apartment on Gale Avenue. Elizabeth Tanksley Lawrence (Ex.'30), is in Knoxville for the winter while Dunn is continuing his engineering course at U . T . Estha Hill ('29), is in the library at Mt. Pleasant, Tennessee, and is not so far away that she can't run down to see the girls here occasionally.
Births
On December 26 a son to Mr. and Mrs. Sam Walker (Grace Frierson, Ex. '27).
On February 2 a daughter to Mr. and Mrs. Tom Burns (Edna Thomason, Ex.'31).

Hearken, all ye Alpha O's to the tales of your Psi alumna? sisters.
"Go a-holidaying in the sunny South- lands" seems to offer an unusually al- luring invitation to our Psi alumnse. During the Christmas season, Margaret Story Hill ('25), and her husband, John, answered the call and braved the rough ifca journey to Bermuda to spend a de- lightful time on that coral isle.
And now word comes that Avis Hunter Rumpp ('18), sailed February 7 for
Havana where she will spend two weeks. Dr. Gwendolyn Hunsicker Mason ('22), who adores giving us surprises, has returned from Minnesota with her small daughter for a visit with her mother and
father in Philadelphia.
Dr. Miriam Iszard Guest also jour-
neyed eastward at Christmas time to spend the holidays with her mother in Woodbury, New Jersey. Miriam and her husband are now en route for Texas.

Many alumnai returned to Miami for Homecoming. We had some difficulty Iin seeing each other, but since many ' geern to be friends or wives of Sigma Chi% their front terrace was used as a ; meeting place. Among those present were, Margaret McLennan, Bernadette ; Murphy, Thelma Nickel Readnour, Nat- alie Johnson McNary, Cleon Johnson Truitt, Harriet Beaton Clark, Grace Wil- ;'jis Smith, Kathryn Long, Ruth Cox
Segar, Louise Rey and Irene Wilt. Dorothy Gelham was married January 8 in Cincinnati to Homer Crist, road contractor. She had a lovely home wed-
librarian in Norwood. She is looking fine. Frances Rich has a cold. She says, "one of those old Bishop colds."
Bernadette Winter Murphy ('25), keeps busy with her young son, who is certainly growing up. He's a year old now, you know, and his name is Garrett Norton. Helen McLennan Wilson ('24), seems to be fine with her sons, Louie Francis and Mac. The young son, Mac, is quite a bouncer, and so is "Lil" Hempel Moore's, the respective sons be- ing the same age. Margaret McLennan ('26), is at home leading a leisurely life. She says that she is always ready to
home preparing for her marriage. Mary

To DRAGMAall felt much better as she is now home, and though she is not receiving callers, she has improved.
And just as we were beginning to re- cover from the news of Winifred, came the startling word that Margaret Clark ('28), was confined to bed for a several months rest to recover from a break- down. As Molly Peckham Locke ('26), had been ill for months, it was with real dread that every one asked the question "What next"? Then Molly was put in a cast and then to our added surprise Frances Murray Burridge ('25), came around with her right arm in a cast. But, just a minute, I can be cheerful, because Margaret is at work again, Molly is without the cast and feeling some better after a long rest in Grand Rapids, and "Fran" is back at school teaching. Helen Dye (Ex.'29), is improving much with her rigid schedule of rest and quiet. She finds herself interested in sewing and has made some clever novelties.
Detroiters are happy to have Helen Whipple ('26), and Nell Dickinson ('20), take residence. Helen has a fine position as advertising manager for Tuttle and Clark and in the Law Department Nell finds plenty to do for the Kresge Company. Sally Knox ('28), has shifted her journalistic ambitions to the Wyan- dotte paper. Mary Lawton ('27), teaches in Wyandotte and spends much time in Traverse City with her mother. Josephine Norton ('26), teaches there, and Esther Bradley Ham ('28), lives in the neighboring town of Fordson. Since they are all so near Detroit, we have the
pleasure of seeing them often.
Lois Cossitt ('29), has found her in- terests and success in store personnel work in Cleveland. If she doesn't see, she, at least, talks with Alda Weber Ex.'28), and Marjorie Miller Keller ('26), and reports that they are fine. Marjorie makes frequent trips to De- troit and Romeo. Velma Leigh Carter ('24), sends word that she is feeling bet- ter and still at her Clinic work.
Betty Cossitt Fricker ('27), has es- caped this Detroit blizzard as she and Franklyn are on a trip to California. They expect to be there about five weeks. A new neighbor to Betty is Jean Green- shields Rex ('28). On Saturday, Janu- ary 24, Jean and Bill were married in the North Woodward Congregational Church in Detroit. Jean wore a gown of ivory satin, fashioned along princess
lines and extending into a train. Hertulle veil was fastened by a wide banctfof maline and orange blossoms. Shemade a beautiful bride. Mrs. William.Langenau, her freshman roommate, wasmatron of honor, and Mary and MarthaGrccnshields were the bridesmaids. Theywore flat crepe dresses and felt hats tomatch in shades of henna and peach.The reception was given at the L ' Aiglonin the Fisher building. We all trouped toithe depot and with much argument andmany pleas we convinced the gate-manto let us through. We boarded the train;and gave them a hearty send off to NewYork.
This has been our only wedding sincelast summer, but there is a long list ofprospects for the coming season. An-nette Burkhardt ('26), has been the onlyone to set a definite date. Her presentplans call for a garden wedding on June13. Her hospital work has been provid-ing enough experiences and her latestadventures have taken herefrom Chicago<to Indianapolis. She promises us a visitin early spring.
Elva Langdon Capeling (Ex.'26), hasreceived a splendid promotion, and sheis now Dean of Women and Director ofActivities in the junior high school a|Flint. She is taking more Universitywork at Ann Arbor every Saturday.Betty Gratton Y oungjohn ('21), also car-ries University work in addition to herduties as head of the English depart-ment of new Pershing High SchoolIrene Swain ('24), informs us that sheis too busy to write as her extensioncourses from Northwestern Universitydemand a lot of her time. She rarelysees Sue Crawford Williams (Ex.'28).Elva did talk with Sue on a recent Chijcago visit, and Sue is engrossed in th«care of her baby. Other ambitious sis-ters are Dorothy Odle Burger (Ex.'28)and Nell Dickinson who are taking lawncourses at night school. Doris Kuhtt('30), is interested in a commercial class,and Helen Maynard ('30), has rcally.gone into it seriously with her business*school work.
A short note from Dorothy WylieMartin ('24), brought a really happyhappy feeling from the joy of its tone.iHer parents were spending several weekswith her and Marjorie ('21), was to jointhem in a visit.

lias three children, ages and sex unknown. "Lil" Herman Stickney ('22), receives a visit from the Martins, and Louise Dun- can Walker ('21), has a new daughter born on Thanksgiving Day. Her name is Jean Louise.
Ruth Morey Eisele ('25), writes that the Eiseles have started a new idea in phoenix and have introduced slice bread. Ruth finds herself busy with Patricia and her outside interests. Helen Howard
'Newby ('23), is enjoying Houston Alpha 0 contacts.
From a snapshot sent by Helen Frost Rath ('21), at Christmas time, the Raths look as though the Florida suns agree with them mightily.
Another Florida visitor is Geraldine Wilkinson ('30). Mentioning Florida brings thoughts of Elizabeth Parker ('29), who seems to traveling so much between the North and South that one finds it impossible to keep track of her.
Jane Webster ('30), is teaching in Bad -Axe, Michigan. Mary Roach ('30), found the work to her liking at Herman Keifer Hospital in Detroit. Frances Sackett and Betty Morley ('30), both
like their library work.
A recent visitor was Bea Bunting Scott ('21), from her home in Binghamton, New York. We are hoping that Abigal Roberts V an Wagenen ('23), makes true
her suggestion that she may come from Rochester for the reunion.
No one has heard from Dorothy Nix Hauf (Ex.'26), except for one tiny note since her return from abroad. We do know that "Haufie" is teaching at Yale. Sue Storke is still living in Connecticut near New York. Arline Ewing Elliot C25), is happy living in New York. She is taking some advanced courses. Lila Crump ('30), and Marva Hough ('28), are having a great time in New York to-
gether.
The Ann Arbor residents seem to be busy. Founders' Day gave us a chance to see most of them. Charlotte Ewing Wagner ('24), finds plenty to do with the children and her social obligations. For a few months Mary Kent-Miller Tennant ('27), was working, but the last note indicated she was in for a good rest. Margaret Hanselman Underwood ('25), enjoys her library work. Mary Carr Ruble ('27), is now in Ann Arbor as Bill is taking a law course there. Lucille
Bellamy V an Antwerp ('25), is making a real success of her high school orchestra
in Ypsilanti. Dr. Luverne Hays ('26), is a comfort to those of our girls who may happen to be confined at the Uni- versity Hospital. Sally Bonine Morrison ('28), is teaching in Ann Arbor Elemen- tary School. Oh, yes, Cynthia Hawkins ('27), is raising sheep.
Bea Hoek Finley ('24), enjoys living in Kalamazoo as it gives her an oppor- tunity to see Katherine Swayze Monroe ('24), often. Elizabeth Hayes Monay- han ('25), enjoys her summer home as a winter home with all its promise of winter sport.
Winifred Benedict Dudley ('26), en- joys her housekeeping and frequent trips into Detroit. Isabelle Waterworth Van- deveer ('24) , has stopped her school work. She made a visit to Lorraine Price Howell ('24), this fall while on an east- ern trip.
Irene Lutz Dunham ('23), is more busy than ever with all her outside ac- tivities in the Michigan Women's Asso- ciation. Alice Burlingame ('28), devotes much of her time to the same organiza- tion. Helen W olfe ('20), is doing J u - venile Court work in Cincinnati.
And then there are the rest of us mean- ing most of us who have done nothing unusual, but the routine of school, l i - brary, housework, and our social life. '

Rosalie Goodhart ('32), had as her guests recently, several active and alum- nae Pi Delta girls. The trip to Rosa- lie's summer home in the mountains is always a much anticipated pleasure— especially because of the square dance with the mountaineers. Perhaps the next rush party will be a country dance since the girls all know how to "swing your partner." Anita Peters (Ex. '29), Margaret Temple ('29), Jo Blandford

week-end.

The active chapter is sorry to lose the help of Evelyn Coffin ('29), as their alumna adviser. Evelyn finds most of her time taken up now as she is work- ing hard in her father's office.
Another member of the chapter has secured a very fine position as teacher. Gertrude Moore ('30), has recently started teaching Spanish at Loulie Comp- ton Seminary. This news was a surprise to us as Gertrude has just finished tak- ing a business course at Massey Business College.
Elizabeth Mackey Hall ('29), is finding housekeeping in her new apartment highly interesting.
We never get to see Eliza Stokes very much any more. This was accounted for when we learned that she is teaching in Bessemer.
Elizabeth Logan ('29), has deserted this fair, industrial city to teach in the Tuscaloosa High School. Although Tus- caloosa is not far away, we do not see her much any more, and her active serv- ices and lively personality are missed from the chapter.

In looking over the Kappa Theta roll, I see many new names, for last summer brought forth many weddings. Betty Scott (Ex. '27), and Ted Buckley were married in Yuma, Arizona last February.
Dorothy Bajtey ('28), is now Mrs. Harlan Striff. After a lovely wedding in the Rosewood Methodist Church, the at- tendants being Alpha O's, Dorothy and Harlan spent a honeymoon aboard Mr. Battey's yacht.
Margaret White (Ex. '28), and William Murphy (University of Southern Cali- fornia), are now married.
Dorothy Graham ('26), is the wife of Dr. M . E . Ralston, a dentist practicing in Chino, California. Dorothy is teach- ing music in the Pomona High School. They are moving their residence from Pomona to Chino.
Artemae Alsop ('28), had a very beau- tiful wedding, I hear. She married Max Winter (Stanford University).
Violet Amberson (Ex. '26), is hard to keep up with. She is now Mrs. Gotabed, and is living in Pasa Robles, California. We never even got a peep of her when she was in the south, and I suppose she will never show herself now.
After a courtship which began in their high school days, Annice Daggett ('26), and Frederick Felton (University of Southern California), have joined the married ranks. They spent two months in the cast after their wedding, visiting New York, Boston and other points of interest in New England. They returned by the way of Lake Louise and the Pa- cific Coast. Annice recently resigned her position as treasurer of the Kappa Theta
House Corporation. W e shall miss her bills.
We do so wish that Effie Jessup (Ex. '26), would give us a treat by coming in to alumna meeting some time. She has been teaching music at Garden Grove, California, for several years, but she has changed her position now to that of Mrs. Mathews of Tustin, California.
Martha Miller (Ex. '26), is now Mrs. Richard Williams of Walnut Park, Cali- fornia.
Mary Pfahler (Ex. '26), had a chance meeting with Martha Foster Shafer (Ex. '25), and learned from her that she has added Job to her name. This happened shortly before Christmas.
Ruth Koster (Ex. '27), is now MrsJ • William Burke, and has a lovely home
in the beautiful hills of Ojai, California. She is teaching part time in the high school there.
We were all so happy when Francis Fuller (Ex. '27), moved back to Los Ao| geles from San Diego and married Rich- ard Clements.
Betty Mc Williams ('27), is now MrsJ Cecil Smith. She is living in Hollywood Now isn't that quite a list of brides?- I expect that Helen Campbell (Ex. '27«
will be next. She announced her en- gagement at a lovely luncheon at the Surfl and Sand Club at Hermosa Beach last Valentine Day.
We have a new future Alpha O in Helen Shield Dixon's ('26), darling baby girl, Nancy Ann Dixon, born in the
Hollywood Hospital on October 4. Helen! is very happily engaged in caring for hen baby now, instead of teaching other peo--f
pie's.

bed and night table, a low chest of drawers and mirror, a desk and hanging book shelf, and two chairs. The drapes and cushions are red sprigged chintz which is used also .on the lamps. The spread and rug have red, brown and tan for their colors. This room is the embodiment
<of charm and hospitality, and we hope to have many guests.
The large bathrooms have an abundance of baths and showers besides built-in individual cases for each girl's toilet articles. Nothing has been neglected—there is even a utility room with porcelain wash-
tubs and two ironing boards.
Throughout the house there are lovely terrazzo floors except for the
third floor rooms which are of oak. These third floor rooms are furnished with pieces from our other house, relacquered various colors. An im- mense airy dormitory with eight beds and several dressers takes care of the town girls who come for the night.
This completes a description of the new house which we are all so proud to have. We wish to thank each and every girl and mother who has co-operated and assisted in giving us this charming new home.
