Lila Kline has also announced her intention of sailing for Paris, where she will continue writing articles for McCall's Magazine.
Everyone was very happy to see Joanna Colcord at our January alum meeting.
Wilma Smith Leland visited her home in Sioux City, Iowa, during the holidays. While there she saw Margaret Borum St. John and her darling baby, Robert Reed. Margaret has recently moved to Sioux City.
During the holidays, Alice B . Goodwin spent a few days in Chicago— as near Heaven as she ever expects to get—the thirty-seventh floor of the Hotel Morrison.
BIRTHS
To Mr. and Mrs. N. E. Hendrickson (Ruth Buckley), a baby girl, Frances Elaine, August 26, 1926.
To Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd P. Johnson (Edna Schlampp), a baby girl, December 8, 1926.

Margaret Brix to Harold G. Sandhoff, graduate of University of Minnesota in 1925.
MARRIAGES
Ruth O'Brien, '18, became the bride of Davis G. McCarn, graduate of the University of Chicago in 1912,on Thanksgiving noon in the Chicago University chapel. Only the family was present.
Orpha Hanstead was married on October 12, 1926to Dr. K. J. Cole, of Milnor, North Dakota.
CHI
Young 1927 dashed up about a week ago, in the consequential way of youth, to tell me the latest gossip bits he had picked up from '26. There had been a holiday gathering of Chis out at Esther Hagenbucher Hill's, he said, from which the old fellow had emerged, news-laden and chuck- ling. A party composed of Esther, Emily, Marcia, Mildred and W in Riese, Genevieve Canfield Mason, Kay Gilcher, Nora King, Be Baron, Jessie Lewis Rice, Jane Gooding, Mina Gordon, and Helen Howalt would give anyone an entertaining evening, of course.
Had I heard that Polly Howalt will be off for Paris in February? She intends to study French, in preparation for entrance to the new Pari- sian college of psychology.
Marion and Doris Knapp, are going over next summer, too, but for pleasure rather than study, I gathered. They are teaching together this winter in Wellsboro, New York.
Mina Gordon's latest avocation is whizzing about in the Jordan Vic- toria coupe her mother gave her for Christmas.
Measles, alas! interfered with both vocation and avocations f°r Edith Rauch this month. We hope it is the lightest of cases.
The gift shop Nora opened recently is prosperous and absorbingly >n" teresting, 'tis said.
Lorraine Brett is working in the Registrar's office at Columbia.
Out in Detroit, Kay Gilcher heads the city Investigation Department She and her eleven assistants handle for the courts about three hundred cases a month—matters of adult as well as juvenile delinquency. After
you have listened for a time to Kay's fascinating stories, I remember, y°u are ready to cast to the winds whatever may be your work, and ju^P aboard the first train for Detroit.

That would give you an opportunity, too, to drop in on Kay Jenkins in her new Chicago home, 6241 Kimbark Avenue. By the carefulness with which Kay writes that "Burton R. Clement is the best ever." I am re- minded that I made the dreadful mistake last time of calling him "Bert Clemens." I hope I'm forgiven?
Or you might go on farther to Idaho, where Bertha Muckey still rejoices in her chosen work of the law. She plans to stay at Twin Falls at least two years longer, as assistant to the new prosecutor.
Yet some of our sisters do get drawn back to the Empire State. Flo Gilger O'Leary's Christmas card was postmarked Cleveland, but she will spend the winter, Emil writes me, as near home as Buffalo.
Helen Schrack's new home is at 100 Strawbridge Avenue, in West- mont, a suburb of Camden, New Jersey.
Mary Adams rejoices in the fact that Tweed's baby daughter and her masculine cousin, of like youthfulness, gave the family reunion the liveliest time ever.
Mary spent a week-end not long ago with Ruth Harvey at Salamanca, where she teaches.
That reminds me that another Ruth, Ruth Walker Oyer, was back for the Colgate game. •The only other alumna there, so far as reported, was Mary Williams.
Still another Ruth must be included in these notes—Dibbie. who jots down in consternation (or approval) on the back of a decidedly good- looking Christmas card, that she was the only Syracusan at the New York Founders' Day banquet. Will anyone doubt now that we arc cryingly busy ?
It was that same busy state, I suppose, that interfered with the house party rumored for Ted Petrie Oelrich's at Tarrytown. Edith Gessler, Robbie, and Marj Townscnd were to IK? among the guests, and Marj was to write me all the details of the affair. I call attention to my kindness in refraining from stating that Marj did not.
There was another rumor afloat this Christmas, too: that Emily Tar- bell, half-way resting for once in her busy life, was actually getting fat. For such a story as that, of course, only seeing is believing.
There is no hint of resting in Helen Schrack's account of the way she has been doing double work since the illness of the doctor with whom she is associated; or in Lillian's letter of this morning, telling rather gleefully of how, having added one more basketball team to those she has l>een coaching, she is "still rushing madly about trying to get to places on time." She is to be Girls' Advisor in the high school at Amster- dam next year, a position which will lead to that of dean, "or some such pompous thing." Pomposity and Lillian would be an entertaining couple!
BIRTHS
Allow me, first, to correct an error of last time. Little Jaync Whitney
Hollister wails indignantly that I insulted her by the title of Master. In these days of six-inch heels and glittering gowns, feminity, it would seem, is prized even by the youngest.
Laura Moore Gerow's new baby is a girl—of that I'm sure. Marion Irene was born on the fifth of November, and, according to Mary Adams, 's finding this world a pleasant and healthful place.
DEATHS
Helen Schrack's mother, I have just learned, died last July after months of intense suffering. It is more than heart-deep sympathy we feel for Helen! there is the sense of personal loss, as well, for all ot us Who loved Mrs. Schrack when she visited us in college or who afterwards had the privilege of enjoying her gracious hospitality.

Tenth irthday! As you read this many of you will remember when it was he seventh or eight, others the fourth and fifth, and yet others the very irst. How wonderful it would be to have you there to tell us about each ear—let's all put forth an effort to get back.
The most important news this time concerns our several marriages, but etore we hear about those there are a few other threads of news to be oven together.
Again our spokesman. Erma Laselle Collins, has represented us. Erma as one of the speakers at Vocational Congress, talking on her major hemistry—would almost seem that the subject of Child Care or Raising etter Babies, might be more adequate.
Henrietta Moebus Bolitho entertained at tea for our patroness, Mrs. llan Sales, of Bozcman, who is visiting with her daughter in Butte. ll of you will be delighted to hear of our new patroness, Mrs. L. D. onkling. Now we are proud to claim all of the Conkling family.
Alpha Phi alums will be sorry to hear from Florence (Monkie) yler, that she has been ill for several months. "Monkie" is in Nashville, ennessee, and although the Nashville Alumnae claim her now, we are ighty pleased to hear from her and send best wishes for a speedy re- overy.
Finally we have Minnie Ellen Marquis Hastings' address. She is en- oying life in "Sunny California" and can be reached at 2315 Parker St., erkeley, California. Verna Willis is also in school in Los Angeles, in ali Eornia.
Ruth Noble Dawson has been elected alumnae adviser in addition to er position as chaperone and house manager. W e quite envy Ruth the pportunity of being able to do so much for the girls.
ENGAGEMENTS

arty in November, announcing the engagement of Noneeta (Nita) to M r . ytar Reese of Great Falls. Several of "the Sisters" have had the pleasure f meeting him and approve most heartily.
MARRIAGES

C, where hey will make their home. Mr. Rees has a responsible position with the ncome Tax Division of the U. S. Treasury Department.
On New Year's eve at Billings, occurred the wedding of Chloe Cox Charles Lyndon, Sigma Chi, of Lyndon. Canada. A l l of us remember his very serious college romance, and are delighted that it has so cul- inated. They will make their home at Lyndon, Canada.
Romance such as we would expect for our Lou has found her ut and we have the announcement that Lucille Staebler. '24. was married n Christmas eve to Clement R Strudwick, at the Church of Trans- iguration (the "Little Church Around the Corner") in New York City. r. Strudwick is a graduate of the University of North Carolina, and ie National Art Academy, New York City, where he is a commercial rtist. They will make their home in New York City.

During Christmas week, Margaret Kraemer was hostess at a "baby part}'," A l l proud mothers and a few "aunties" were invited. La Rue Crossan was there with her two attractive, young sons, Bobby and Jack. Then there was Anna Bucher with her two darling children, Virginia and Shirley; Genevieve Strahley with little Louis, and Cecelia Gerson Rein- heimer with Emley. And, of course, petite Virginia Kraemer! How she did enjoy entertaining her little friends! Katherine Thomas happened to be in town just in time to be invited—and what a treat it was for all the
girls to see her again.
ENGAGEMENTS
Gertrude Hayman, '25, announced her engagement at a delightful bridge party on October thirtieth. The lucky man is F. C. W . Paton, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, and a member of Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. It is a custom of our chapter to receive a five-pound box of candy from the man who announces his engagement to one or our mem- bers. Mr. Paton—better known to the girls as "Jack"—sent his contribu- tion just in time for our Founders' Day celebration, and, needless to say, it was one of the outstanding attractions.
The engagement of Dorothy Anderson to Mr. Stuart John has re- cently been announced.

At any rate we are all glad as we can be f?r Mary. In fact, Mart says that the shock of such a gift would make revival difficult in her o w n case.
Grace Willis Smith and Dr. Smith stopped in Oxford on their way to the Thanksgiving game. (Wouldn't you like to stop in Oxford again'/ "Smitty" is in an Indianapolis hospital this year.
All that—now wasn't that a special well spent?
On the first day of December I had the most delightful surprise—a letter from Sid, who is waiting for the day "when my progeny a r . far enough along, so that I can reacquaint myself with some of the o gang." And Sid is just as thrilled with west Texas as Hallcr is W» California. She sent pictures of her darling youngsters, and told no

With all the excitement and happiness of the holidays and Helen oward's marriage to Ira Newby on Thursday, December 30th, the Alpha 's have been enjoying an interesting time. About four o'clock, most of us ere in the main ballroom of the Detroit Boat Club, waiting for Helen.
ne club was decorated in Christmas greens and an aisle of white candles
nd ribbons had been made. Carol Howard, Floy Howard, Marian Tanner,
orothy Wylie, and Lorry Dieterle, were the attendants. They wore
»esses of green georgette, trimmed in green velvet, and carried poinsettas.
elen looked lovely in a white, beaded dress, lace head-band and long
'l. Directly after the ceremony, we had supper and Helen and Ira Pposedly left for Chicago. They stopped in Grand Rapids and then eturned here for a week. We certainly were glad as it had been some- nie since Ira had been in Detroit. They will live in Galveston, Texas. W e " hate to have Helen leave Detroit, but we are glad to have her so appy a m ] w jth them go our best wishes.



346 TO PRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI
Marian Murray and Fran Bur ridge were home for the holidays. Fran is now living in Detroit and Bud is doing dental work here. Betty Hayes and Jennette McColl were visiting a few days in Grand Rapids. Lorry Dicterle is now in her own apartment and we all certainly enjoyed our first visit there. Lorry says she can't realize how fast the time Ays and it keeps her busy just doing housework. Dorothy Wylie was in town most of the holiday season ami Luvcrn came in for a few days. Elanore Eaton came from Jackson for the wedding and spent the week-end with Mar-
jorie Kerr.
Doris Howlett and Frank are living in the same apartment building that Mary and Milton do. Doris says she loves housekeeping, especially making pancakes. Just ask her about them, anytime.
There seems to be little news of real excitement, as Helen's wedding seems to have predominated. Bea Bunting. M arian Tanner, Ginny Smith, are doing library work and having a wonderful time besides. I have tried to get them by telephone and it is quite impossible to find them in. Ruth McBride is in the Highland Park Library, Winifred Benedict at- tends business college, Irene Lutz is still at Hudson's (after several weeks'
illness), Winifred Sample has been substituting at Detroit Teachers' Col- lege Library. Fran Norton is teaching in various high schools, Ginny Cross- man finishes Detroit Teachers' College and will teach grade school this February, Isal»el Vandeveer is coaching debating at Northern High, Glad Hinmon spent the holidays in Dayton, Ohio, Emma Bergman spends her time between Detroit and Ann Arbor, Betty Youngjohn is busy at Teach- ers' College, Jo Weiler helps her mother keep house, and little Sherman Harding keeps Ruth busy most of the day. Harriet Weston has taken a regular teaching position in the Clarenceville High School, very near Detroit. In one breath, I've given you an idea of what we are all doing. You must use your imagination to fill in the gaps. We really do see one
another quite often and enjoy lots of good times together.
On New Year's night. Margaret Hanselman was married to Myrl Underwood at a quiet home wedding in Ann Arbor. Marian Tanner was her only attendant. They have taken an apartment in Ann Arbor and Margaret will continue her library work. Fran Barrett planned to come into Detroit a few days, but was sick with a cold, so she rested up t"r her return to Durand. Peg Wagner hasn't written for some time, but I guess she is rather busy these days.
Bea Finley has moved into her new home in Highland Hills, Grand Rapids; Lucille Van Antwerp is in her new home, too. Dorothy Nix stu« enjoys her personal work: Lil Herman is teaching, Helen Whipple is advertising, Louise Boer is doing secretarial work, and Florence is teach- ing. Mary Ellen Appleton is working in Providence Hospital. Detroit- Hilda Bateman was over to Ann Arbor for Founders' Day and it was great to see her again. She has been teaching near Jackson. Kate Swayze Monroe wrote me from Kalamazoo and she has been having a wonderful winter. She and Bea Finley manage to see one another quite frequently-
