September 19, 1948

To My husband,

Another year upon the lonely way,
Lonely and yet enriched. For every day
I feel your absence in an empty earth
But feel your presence too, in newer birth,
Newer and nearer, though so far away;
The nearness true, -- or so I ask and pray, --
The absence not an absence, though the sight,
The touch, the closeness in the day and night,
Are groped for, longed for. Yet a halcyon spell
In ways ineffable and blessed tell
That in the aching absence you are here,
To share, to solace and support, my dear,
With understanding more than long ago
When eye to eye explained and made it so.
The help me walk as you are walking too,
Beneficent in paths I walk with you,
And let us serve together as of yore
And love rejoice in longing more and more,
In longing bring oneness to be known
Through years forever, never more alone, --
Together, though apart, the suffering shine,
The suffering lifted by your hand in mine.

My Wife, Stella Perry

Your editor asks me to “write something” about my wife, Stella Perry, but
doesn’t specify what. Thus given a free rein, I find the assignment tough
because of the very inspiration that the subject has for me. I cannot be
adequate to this, but here’s a part of it:
To begin with, her portraiture from my view-point (if that is what is wanted)
is made difficult by her “infinite variety.” She is more kinds of a good woman
than anyone else I have ever known. Of course, all women are many-sided, but
I think that my particular jewel has more than the usual number of facets and,
to me at least, they all seem flawless. If that sounds fulsome, I can’t help it.
She is, simultaneously, all woman, all poet, all idealist and all-practical. She
can write a poem with one hand and a marketing-list with the other and they
will both be good. She can feel more intensely over more things in a day than
I can in a year, but she is not - thanks be! - an “intense” woman, save in her
affections and loyalties. Her deepest depths are never somber nor is her keen
appreciation of the humorous ever dulled by her emotions.
If you have read any of her poems, you know something of the loftiness and
purity of her thought. If you have read her novels, you have felt her strength.
But - you should also taste her cooking!
Her dominant characteristics, I think, are her passion for
truth, the intensity of her affections and the permanence of
her loyalties. Friendship is as much a part of her being as
her breathing, and as life-enduring. But, hand-in-hand with
a love for all creation - especially children, beauty, art and
AOII - is a flaming hatred for anything resembling deceit,
injustice or cruelty that often becomes highly articulate.
This, however, only as to the sin - never the sinner. In all
our lives together I have never heard her say an unkind word
of, or to, an individual.
She is very easy to get along with on matters of mere
opinion. But as to matters which she considers principles
and as to matters touching her loyalties - well, it is lucky for
her that the obdurate are no longer burned. She is of the
stuff of which at least a dozen martyrs could be made.
Add to the above a merry heart, a vast tenderness and a
keen, splendidly trained intellect and you will get some idea
of what I, at least, think of her. And if you knew how long
we had been married you would admit that I shouldn’t have
any illusions, now.

As written for To Dragma by her husband, George Hough Perry

In Stella’s Own Words

For more than 50 years, Founders’ Day messages from Stella Perry were a
cherished AOII tradition -- a written reminder of the true meaning of our
fraternity. The message Stella wrote for Founders’ Day 1956 was penned
just a few days before her death on November 6th of that year. That message
began with a one-stanza poem she had written many years earlier, then
continues with, “Now, let me add, for this Founders’ Day, another simple
stanza, with my grateful, confident love.” This is likely the last poem written
by Stella George Stern Perry - AOII Founder and poet.

Alpha Omicron Pi

Of my rich youth, as bright as gold,
To you I gave a part;

And now I never can grow old,
Because you bring, a thousandfold,

My youth back to my heart.

In your rich youth is banked my own,
Pray treasure it in fee

And take the interest it has shown,
The golden roses it has grown,
Forever yours, from me.

Leadership
Consultant

Educational Leadership Consultants (ELCs) are hired each spring to serve as AOII’s
ambassadors, liaisons, and educators for a nine-month period from late July through late
April. Working in cooperation with fraternity volunteers and International Headquarters staff
members, these positions offer recent graduates the opportunity to travel across the United
States and Canada to provide one-on-one comprehensive operational support to all of our
collegiate chapters.

After completing a four-week long training program in late summer, the ELCs are prepared to
begin their once-in-a-lifetime journeys with ongoing support from staff and volunteers along
the way. While the ELC Program is aiding in AOII’s desire to create the most meaningful
collegiate experience possible for every member, it doesn’t take each consultant long to
realize that the program is equally as rewarding to her.
