ALUMNAE CHAPTERS Detroit, Michigan Lansing. Michigan Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Milwaukee, Wisconsin Grand Rapids, Michigan Cincinnati, Ohio Port Huron, Michigan

Girls are selected for membership in our sorority on account of their womanly qualities, their high ideals of scholarship and their campus activities as much as for their social qualities as indicated in the following taken from the constitution: "We aim at true womanliness, good scholarship and self路sacrificing friendship one for another."

"The object of this fraternity shall be general culture, devotion to duty and loyalty to college, to friends, and to sisters." " Pledges to the fraternity must have a 'C' ( 85 % or above ) average in scholarship in order to be initiated. If a pledge fails to attain this average for two consecutive terms, including the term in which she was invited, she shall be dropped from the list."

"When an active sister fail s for two consecutive terms to keep up 'C' average, she shall be suspended from all fraternity activities and privileges until her marks warrant her reinstatement."

The so roity was establi hed in 1899, at Michigan State Normal College, and is the third educational so rority e tabli hed in th United tate . Th re are 300 alumnae members of Alpha Chapter.

ANCHOR

History of Alpha Chapter, Michigan State Normal College •T WAS on an evening in the autumn of 1899 that a group of girls met at the home of Ruby Pratt on Huron Street to organize a little club or so rority. There were present at this first meetin g, among others, Helene Rice, her sister Adriance, Eva O' Keef, and Harriet Marx. There were then in existence on the campu s three other sororities, Pi Kappa Sigma, Sigma Nu Phi and Zeta Phi (now inactive ) .

The name Alpha Sigma Tau was chosen, and unfortunately, purple and go ld were selected for the colors. Thus is was that Alpha Sigma Tau , the third oldest educational sorority, was organized. A dozen or more ver y enthusiastic girls were present at this first meeting.

I

The next meeting was a little party at the home of lVirs. Depew on Forest Avenue where Helene and Adriance Rice, Eva O'Keef and Harriet Marx roomed. The party was indeed gay and festive with decorations of gold and purple. Even the cake wa s golden with purple icing. Here it was decided that the next day should witness the introduction of the newly born so rority to the world at large and to the student body in particular. Accordingly the members attended chapel en masse, everyone wearing the chosen colors. Imagine their surprise and chag rin when members of the Zeta Phi informed them that the Alpha Sigma Tau had appropriated their colors.

Mrs. E. A. Lyman was chosen patroness. During the fir st year of its existence the sorority did not display any marked activity. The charter was not received till the second year when Edith Silk, Myrtle Oram, Zoe Waldron, Grace Townley, Marie Gedding, Louise Agrell and Mable Pitts had joined the organization and with the organizers were the charter members. On the suggestion of Mrs. Lyman, 1iss Pearce and Miss Norton were asked to become patronesses. The charter members were very, very close friend s and have ever since remained so . Three of us attended Zoe Waldron's wedding to Dr. Koch in Seattle and two attended my own in Helena, Montana, where Helene and Adriance Rice and I taught, and roomed together. In general , those first members followed Horace Greeley's advice and " went west", though he, I believe, confined his admonitions to "young men" .

Mabel Pitts taught in Seattle -when I lived in Tacoma and we spent many pleasant week-ends together. We had lost all track of Marie Gedding for some years when she, too, turned up in Seattle. We all lunched together and fought old battles over again on this occasion.

Helene Rice is now Mrs. Hallingby, living in Calumet, Mich., and · Adriance Rice, Mrs. Charles Settles, of Helena, Montant, died in 1919.

Mable Pitts took a name very appropriate to her and is Mrs. C. E.

Joll y, of orth Y akima , Wa shington. Zoe Waldron is, as I have said , Mrs. Dr. Koch, and lives in Bea ve r Dam, Wisconsin. Zadie Dingfelder is Mrs. Billy Moffitt, of Aberdeen, Wa shington. It is good indeed to kn ow that out of so small an aco rn such a mighty oak has gr own, or at least that from such a small begi nning has come a sor ority of such numbers and standin g. But of this I am convinced, tha t to our patroness, Mrs. Lyman, and her coadjutors that success is owed and speaking as a member, I am sure we cann ot be grateful enough to her f or extending her interest beyo nd th e active chapter to the alumn ae associations.

And now in conclusion, I h ope with all m y hea"rt that your prosp erity and well being as a sorority may long continu e and pe rhaps the best I can wish you, is that th e fri end ships that are f ormed and matured during your active membership ma y last as l ong and be frau ght with as much pleasure and happiness as has been the case am ong your charter members.

Sorority Activities Alpha Chapter Alpha Chapter has always been unusually active in Y. W. C. A. work. One year four out of the six delegates sent to the Y. W. C. A. co nvention at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, were members of Alpha Sigma Tau and last year two of the delegates to the International Student Volunteer Convention were sisters, Carrie Washburne and Gwend olyn McLaugh lin . Two of our girls, Helen Larkin and Marjorie Upton, are makin g Y. W. C. A. their life work. Several of our girls have held the president's office in this association, Carrie Wahsburne bein g president last year and Hilda Schweir this year. Many girl s have held cabinet positions and with the exception of a very few years our so rority has had 100 per cent Y. W. C. A. membership .

As one of our aims is genera l culture every year we endeavor to take up somethin g in literary work or studies in parliamentary law.

Al so we have al ways done something along the line of charity work.

As an illustration, during the war and for some time after the so rority upported two French orphans. From year to year we have helped the Y. W. C. A. in some way .

Scholarship, another cardinal point of the sisterhood, has been strong ly emphasized , two girls maintaining "A" standings throughout this year and eight or ten having between an "A" and a " B" standing.

Two years Alpha Chapter girls held three of the highest honors at g raduation. In 1922 Allura Exelby was valedictorian, Doris Gorsuch, salutatorian and Ola Hiller was Training School representative. In 1924 Carrie Washburne was va ledictorian, B. Iva Woodford, representative of Pea se auditoriu路m and Wanda Crawford, representative of the Main building. Several of our girls are in the honorary nati onal scholastic society, Kappa Delta Pi. Two of our sisters were chosen for the Normal College faculty this year. Wanda Crawford is assistant referen ce librarian and Janice Austin is a member of the Conse rvatory faculty .

The fall rushing season of the AI pha Chapter opened with a MahJong and dan cing party on Friday, October 24, at the sorority house.

The guests were received by a small Chinese girl , who presented each one with a "queue cap ." Unique in cense burners were awarded the highest scorers. The next was a formal tea held at the sorority house on Sunday afternoon. While tea was being served a cycle of vio lin so los was given.

The rushing season closed with a Goblin's Frolic on the l ast night of October amid the weird and mystic surroundings of Hallowe'en. On Saturday, November 1, the final party, a five-course dinner, was se rved at the Huron Hotel. Baby Mums formed the decorations of the tabl e

But one clay a handsome Prince Ch arming came and thi s beautiful maiden unl ocked the secret cha mber and gave it untouched to him. But the Prince (very mu ch like all 1924 Princes) was fi ckl e <~ nd did not deser ve the love tha t was given to him. But it took our bea utiful Princess a l ong time to find it out. When she did, h er heart was broke n and th e whole wo rld grieved because they th ought she n ever would live.

Then one night a fair y app eared to wipe away littl e O wen's teams.

Tr ying to consol e her she said, " Whatever yo u wish will be granted yo u." And her wi sh was tha t she be turned into glittering sands a nd her Prince into sparkling water so that they ever would be near each other even though he did not l ove her.

ANCH O R

Possibl y no Alpha Sigma Tau ha s had a more varied experience than has Mildred Shafer-Young. Immediately after leaving co llege she entered the State War and Navy Department at Washington, D. C After the war she did work among the illiterate soldiers. Associated as she was with army people her friend s were not surpri sed when she married a U. S. Army Officer, Lieutenant Nevins Dorsey Young. Three months of their honeymoon was spent traveling abroad. On their return he was stationed at Camp Jackson, South Carolina and later at Camp Eusti s, Virginia. They are now loca ted at Fort Mills, Corregid or, Philippine I slands.

Grace Gibson-Saunders, whil e in Yp silanti , was elected a membe r at the Stoic Society and won the " Strong" scho larship, an hono r mu ch coveted by the best students. For two summers foll owing her gra duation she was invited and accepted a position to teach in the summer sch oo l of th e Michigan State ormal College. Then she went to Leland Stanford to study. There she met and married Commander Harold E. Saunders, U. S. Navy, then stationed at Mare Island. Later on he was tran sferred to Wa shin gton, D. C., and now is at Portsm outh, New Hampshire.

The work of Cynthia Dodge-Crawford, clas of 1918, is quite unusual. Mu sic and art were her special interests in coll ege. Since the n she has carried on these interests by writin g operetta s. F our, " Let's Go Traveling," " What's th e Matter with Sally?', " Day Before Ye, terday" (Historical ) and " Rainbow's End," have been copyrighted a nd [ 19 ]

She has two or three others ready for publication. A former Dean of the College, Bessie Lea ch Priddy, said of her, "She is one of the bes t 路 all around girls I have ever known. " Among the more recent Sigma Tau girls who have been prominent and won honors on the Campus are Allura Exelby, who was a Stoic, valedictorian of her class and a member of Kappa Delta Pi and durin g three years in college kept up an "A" average. Next year she will be at the Martha Cook Dormitory, University of Michigan, doing degree work.

Grace Braddock, class of 1919, spent last year at Caney Creek settlement in Kentucky, doing mission work among the mountaineers.

She is so enthusiastic about the work that she hopes to return to it soo n.

Ola Hiller was a member of Pi Kappa Delta, the National Forensic ::lociety, and since teaching has made a great success with her students along oratorical lines. She has done some work towards a degree at the University of Michigan and returns here to finish next year.

Many of our members have been chosen to the Kappa Delta Pi Honorary Educational Society.

Virginia Johns after leaving co llege took up th e st ud y of law and was admitted to the bar and has been practi cing in Detroit for several years.

Katherine Bergegrun, while here in college, specialized in physica l training, had charge of playground work in Detroit for some time after, went to California where she studied in the University of California for a time and then took up the study of medicine at the University of Michigan and afterwards continu ed her medica l course in Phi ladelphia, where she graduates this yea r.

Marion Whipple-Cameron, who was a mu sic student while here in college, has a most beautiful voice and sang in churches here and in Detroit durin g her college days. She is now in Iew York in the studi o of Herbert Witherspoon, where she is continuing her musical studies besides being solo co ntralto in the quartette of the fam ous Brick Presbyterian Church of Fifth avenue.

Carrie Washburne, who g raduated in the 1924 class, ca rried off ab out all the honors in coll ege. She was valedictorian of her clas , president of the Y. W. C. A., vice-president of the Women' League.

T h e HistoJry of the Zeta Cha pteJr of Alpha Sigma Tau HE ZETA chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority was organized in Central State orm al School, Lock Haven, Pa_, in April , 1921.

Miss Geraldine Lockhart was a ppointed adviso r b y the principal , Warren . Drum. There were just nine charter members. Mrs. Lyman and Mrs. Mahan ey of the mother chapter of Ypsilanti, Michigan, came to Lock Haven April 7, to organize the sorority.

When it was learn ed that more than one fa culty member was allowed, Miss Ruth Stewart and Miss Mabl e Doyle were taken in. Mrs. Roy S. McDougall was chosen at the same time as an honorary member. Bef ore the end of that fir t year six more girls were in vited to become members of Zeta chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau. The following fall Miss Stewart and Miss Doyle accepted positions in other school s so Mi ss J essie Sco tt Himes and Miss Charl eton Locke were invited to become members of the sor ority. Sin ce Miss Locke was a member of a nati onal so rority she becam e an honorar y memb er.

During the schoo l year of 1922-23, f ourteen more girls became members. In November of thi year the first circulating letter was sent.

In th e fall of 1923 M rs. Ca rroll All , the wife of one of the fa culty members, wa s in vited to become an honorary members and M rs. McDougall was mad e a patroness.

In February bids we re issued to four more girl s who accepted, survived initiation and became members. On Ma rch 14, the fourth annual banquet was held at the New Fall on HoteL It was a pleasure to have so many alumn re back. There were fifty-two present. F or the first time in the history of Zeta chapter, guests were present. Mr. Drum, who will leave the school April l , 1925, spoke on the subj ect of " Loyalty."

A word may be said here about what Zeta chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau does for C. S. N. S. Ever y year it prints and pays for the " Hand Book of Rul es," which is given to every student who enters our schooL Circulating letters whi ch keep alumnre members activel y interested in the school are part of a loyalty campaign for our schooL Sorority members have been chosen to address groups of High Schoo l students in the interests of Central State. Individual members are actively engaged in the school's campaign for larger enrollment of goo d students.

In addition to these a sorority pledge of real supp ort and a llegiance to student government has been sent to Mr. Drum.

The total enrollment of the so rority at present includes twenty-two active members, two patronesses, one fa culty member , four honorary members and 51 alumnre. Briefl y this sums up the f our years of enj oyment and work whi ch have been the privilege of members of Zeta chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau. EDNA FITZSIMMON S.

"My Prayer" Twilight steals o'e r all the land, Shadows flicker over all; Time for vespers and I'll give A pra yer for Alpha Sigma T a u.

Ma y she alwa ys be as virtuou s In the future, as of yore; May the ties whi ch bind us to her Grow within us more and more.

Help us, Lord, to kee p our pl edges Now, and in the future, too ; So that we ma y all be worthy Alpha Sigma Tau, of yo u.

Formal walks and informal hikes he Iped cement these ties.

History of Alpha Sigma Tau, Theta Chapter

O

N May 5, 1923, eight girls journeyed out to Ypsilanti and became charter members of the Theta Chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority. These girl s were Janet Owen, Dor othy Dykstra, Katherine Guinness, Gladys Cathro, Helen Hilton, Margaret Walters, Carol MacKelcan and Helen Juers. We were initiated at the Masoni c T emple and later entertained with a dinner at the Huron Hotel. So thi s was the beginning. We journeyed back to Detroit and fr om thence on started our work.

Our first step towards organizati on was obtaining as our patroness Mrs. Henry C. Walters, and our Alumni Adviser, Miss Edith Mansell.

Our next step was getting new members; after a few meetings and several ru sh parties, we selected six girls who made up our first group of initiates. They were : Sall y Bean, Beatrice Graham, Ruth H owarn, Eli zabeth Howes, Gertrude O'Ma il ey and Helen O'Mailey. Having ad ded these girl s to our chapter we were ver y mu ch strengthened and started forth again for new members. At our second initiation, which was in the spring of 1924, we initiated Hilda Aston, Ljllian Davies, Lillia n J ohn son and Bertha Juers. The third initiati on was held in the summ er of 1924, and her e we added three more sisters : Lucille Lang, Hazel Gardner and Marj orie Hitchcock.

After a pl easant summer vacati on we girls gathered together again and made plans for in creasin g our membership. We held our pl edging ceremon y in the fall of 1924 and pledged Marion Brooks, Elean or Ed ward s, Dorothy Kean , Dorothy Davy, Katherine Butler and Ruth Nielso n. Later on in th e winter, after these girls haa served their pl edge tim e, we initiated them. Adding these last initiates to our chapter it brings our membership up to twenty-eight members.

Sorority Activities Our first social event was a Bridge Luncheon given to us by our patroness, Mrs. Henry C. Walters, at the Detroit Golf Club, in Ma y, 1923. The next event was a Bridge Breakfast a t the Woman 's Exchange, at whi ch the members entertained their fir st group of pledges. Later these pledges entertained the members with a delightful luncheo n at the Di xieland.

Our very fir st undertaking was a Charity Bridge at the home of Eli zabeth H owes on Dexter Blvd., the proceeds being given toward the T eachers' College Scholarship Fund. An other plea ant gathering was a pot-luck supper, given by Miss E. Mansell, our Alumni Adviser, at her home on Highland Ave., Highland Park. [ 33 ]

History of Iota Chapter

O

UR local organization was first known as Delta Gamma Rh o.

We organized on November ll , 1920, with fifteen girls as charter memb~rs. The first yea r our so rority ranked hrst in scholarship, and we placed fir st in th e annual stunt contest. Several of our girls have been recognized in Zeta Kappa P si, the nati onal honorary foren sics fraternity, others have been elected to Kappa Delta Pi, national honorary scholarship fraternity.

On April 4, 1923, Delta Gamma Rho became the I ota Chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority. Mrs. E. A . Lyman of Ypsilanti, Michigan, installed the chapter and intiated the officers a t the home of our sp onsor, Miss Jane K. Atwood. Two weeks later an other initiation service was held at which time the remaining members of Delta Gamma Rho were initiated into Alpha Sigma Tau. To date, fift y-six girls have signed the Alpha Sigma Tau Constitution.

This year we had twenty-seven active members. The year ha s been an interesting one in our working together, both in our work and in our play. Among the social affairs that were en j oyed were: Hall owe'en, Christmas, Valentine, fud ge, line and card parties, as well as our annual spring party and other informal hou se dan ces which were given at various times. Besides these, our sponsors and patronesses entertainmen ts for rushees must be given between 8 o'cl~ck in the mornWe are goin g to have another successful yea r, for we have already begun to plan our work f or next winter. We have our rush week program s mad e out. P erhaps you would be interested in kn owing something of our ru sh week plans and th e ru sh week rules on our cam pus.

We are govern ed by P an-hell enic rules, one which states that all of our entertainments for rmhes must be give n between 8 o'clock in the morning and 8 o'clock at ni ght. Girls onl y are permitted to attend any sorority ru sh week affair. Also, if any organization violates any of the Pan-hell eni c rul es and if the offense is considered seri ous, a penalty of $10 is laid upon such organizati on. For rush week we have pJanned a buffet breakfast at the Sorority H ouse; a dinner dance at the Country Club; a ca rd party; a lin e party; a fi sh-fry and a tea.

We congratulate Alpha Sigma Tau in its progressive step and we renew our pledge of loyalty and willingness of service to AI pha Sigma Tau. Fraternall y yo urs, IoTA CHAPTER, ALPHA SrcMA TAu D. Fl orence Lyons, Sec'y.

Hist ory of Kappa Cha pter of Alpha Sigma Tau

M

IAMI University for many years has been called a " Greek letter" schoo l. The fraternities are many in num ber, and it has been Miami's privilege to organi ze and found the AIpha Chapters of several of the biggest nati onal Academic and Educati on fraternities. There was one outstanding weakn ess and that was the limited number of national so rorities f or girls in Education work.

Reali zing this need, a brave band of energetic and courageo us girl s decided to organi ze anothe r educati onal so rority. These girls were greatl y encouraged and aided by the faculty, especiall y by Dean Min路 nich of the T eachers' College and Dr. W. H. Shideler of the Geo logy Department.

In spite of the many di scouragements that are bo und to come in such a large undertaking, these pioneers of our organiza tion went steadil y on towa rd their goal - that of becoming. a well recognized Greek letter so rority. The preliminary organizing occurrred in Septem路 her 1922, and in October of that same yea r the girl s chose the name Alpha Ka ppa Gamma for their so rority. Mrs. Minnich gave a lovely tea for the girl s and invited a representative f rom each of the other so rorities. This little social gathering aided much in the recogniti on of Alpha Kappa Gamma on the campu s.

The cha rter mem bers were : Margaret Ma rk with, Virginia Moo rman, Thelma Rieck, Ma rga ret F reeman, Esther Lantz, Frances Jackson and Thelm a F ox, who later withdrew her membership. In her a bsence Mary Kl epinger was made a charter member. The girl s soon succeeded in pl edging ten other girl s and began to feel that they were rapidl y accompli shing things.

Dr. Shideler and Gerald Kl einkenecht, both members of Phi Kappa T au fraternity, wrote a beautiful ritu al for the new Alpha Kappa Gamma, which has been their constant inspiration. A badge was then chosen to bear the Alpha Kappa Gamma insigna . It was a bl ack enameled shield bea ring the Greek letters A. K. P. a nd set in crossed torches of go ld, jewelled with pea rl s-the fl ame ri sin g fr om the two torches above the shield. The pledge pins were the Greek letters in sil ver.

The girls soon realized that onl y through nati onaliza ti on co uld they atta in the best results an dso the ybega n to think of a possible Univer路 sity or Coll ege for the installation of the second chapter of A. K . f .

Through much co rrespondence and inquiry it was discovered that Ohio Univer sity al so needed more Education sor oriti es. The gir ls sent representatives fr om the so rority to investigate the situation at Athens and they had the good fortune to secure a group wh o were interested

AN C H OR

in Alpha Kappa Gamma. They were organized as a small club with officers, and in the spring of 1922 Beta chapter of Alpha Kappa Gamma was installed.

During year of 1922 Alpha Kappa Gamma turn ed her attention toward being an entity on th e cam pus. Many breakfasts and hikes were enjoyed and there were teas and banqu ets held . Our final social attempt, however, was our Spring formal da nce, which was accl aimed a great success by all the other so rorities and fraterniti es. We had by this time initiated Mrs. Schlider as our h onorary member, and to her we owe a great deal of our success in eve ry way.

We found at thi s p oint in our ca reer that nati onalization by our own expansion was to be a long and tedious process, so we became interested in affiliatin g with another Greek letter soro rity that wa either nati onal or in near view of it. At thi s time Mrs. Lyman and Mrs. Evans visited us in the interest of Alpha Sigma Tau. We were so well pleased with the p ositi on an dstandards of A. E . T. that we began to consider joining them and relinquishing our name of Alpha Kappa Gamma. By a special ca lled meeting we decided to accept A. E. T. and also asked our Beta chapter to become a part of us. The girl s, having in June, 1924, were initiated and install ed as Kappa Chapter but other plans, decided to remain A. K. f. for the present.

We are, indeed, very proud to be call ed Kappa ch ap ter of Alpha Sigma Tau, and ar eglad to be using our energy and initiative toward the greatn ess and glor y of our beloved.

Chorus 0 , they' re the nicest bunch of girl s With lots of fun and pep And I'll be in lu ck when I get a pin And be like the rest of the bunch.

Tune: It Ain't Goin' To Rain No More CLARICE NORMAN

Here's just a little song about Dear Alpha Sigma Tau, The finest, best sorority This campu s ever saw.

Her girls are ever loya l and tru e To old Miami "U ;" Let' all join in and give a chee r For Alpha Sigma dear.

CENTRAL MICHIGAN NORMAL SCHOOL OF MT. PLEASANT, MICH.

History of Beta Chapter ANY beautiful things originate almost spontaneously. Some years ago a group of girl s of Central Michigan Normal School, of Mt. Pleasant, felt the impul se to be more closely banded togeth er. Much talk and many plans followed. A few others were invited to enter the group. One of th e Faculty wives was invited to become patroness. Le tters were exchanged with the AI pha chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau at Ypsilanti. Then Miss Ada Norton, patroness, and two student members of the Alpha chapter journeyed to us one April day and the result wa s the birth of the Beta chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau sor ority on April 28, 1905, with Mrs. Claude S. Larzelere as patroness, and seventeen members, three of wh om were members of the fa culty.

From 1905 to 1917 we prospered. Every year saw an added group of splendid girl s, until our alumnae numbered over one hundred and sixty members. Th e number of patronesses was also in creased by Mrs. John Kelley and Miss M. Loui se Connerse first, and when they felt it necessary to resign becau se of other duti es, Mrs. K. P. Brooks joined us.

Who will ever forget the initiation banquets of man y intricate courses se rved at Mrs. Gorham 's, or the annual dance with the best

music to be had ? However, much to our disappointm ent, the faculty of our school decided to banish all secret societi es, and in the sp rin g of 1917 we were f orced to disband. Many of the girl s have kept in touch with each other through the alumnae groups or corresponden ce, but there are many, also, who often wonder where their old friends are. These girl s will be particularly interested in having thi direc tory and magazine. There is not space here to give all the interesting new we have picked up about our girl s, but in the next magazine we will be able to give man y items that will bring yo u once more into close touch with your friends of the good old da ys at the ormal.

History of Gamma Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau

T

HE Gamma Chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau was organized in 1909 at State -ormal School, Milwaukee, Wi s., with ten charter 路 members, and Mrs. Walter Hewitt Cheever as Patroness. The Chapter continued with enthusiasm until 1913 when the School Faculty voted to abolish fraternities and so rorities. Since that time the members of the Chapter have kept in close sisterl y tou ch, meeting irregularly, but always with growing affection for their sisterhood, and still holding the hope of some day seein g th e Gamma Chapter once more active in the school.

HistoJry of the Delta ChapteJr of the Alpha Sigma Tau SoJroJrity of Indiana State NoJrmal School N Saturd ay, May 27th, 1916, the Delta chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau So rority held its fir st meetin g in the Y. W. C. A. room of the State No rmal School at Indiana, P ennsylvania.

The meeting wa s call ed to order, officers were nominated and the result of the election was as fo ll ows : Miss Gl ad ys Bowen Miss Ali ce Kane Miss Clare Cover Miss Eli za l sa man Miss Ma ry Arbuckl e Miss Berth a Sta tl er The meetin g was adj ourned to attend a r eception given by the Delta Sigma Epsilon So rority a t the See Cottage.

The two patronesses chosen by the Delta chap ter we re Miss Araminta M. McLane and Miss Mary St. Clair King. 路 The next in order was to have cushi ons and banne路r s which were purchased through the No rmal Book Room.

The secretar y wrote to the Alpha chapter for pledge pins. These were received and the business of " ru shing" began. P a rties were in order. The result of our fir st effort was the takin g in of fi ve girls.

The first time the Delta chapter was reall y noticed was when our write-up was put into the " lnstano," the year book of the school. We

were then invited to j oin the Pan-Hellenic meetings held in the school.

During the year 1917 we were asked to do a lot of things. We furnished a bed in a Base Hospital. A $50.00 Liberty Bond was bought.

We knit an Ambulan ce robe . Dr. John A. H . Keith, principal of the Normal , asked us to make the school a Service Flag, which we did.

It was quite a ta sk but everybody worked hard and when completed there were over two hundred stars, triangles (blue and red ,) red crosses and six gold stars. When the fla g was fini shed it wa s presented to the school by Dr. Keith and was accepted by Mi ss Jane E. Leonard, Dean of Women, now deceased. The fla g is hung in the school for every patriotic occasion and we of the sch ool are very proud of it.

The year 1918 was a busy one. We were having a time " ru shing" as many of the girls went horne to take positions left by the boys going into the camps and across. We continued our parties and kept up our war work. We sold our Liberty Bond to the Savings and Trust Bank.

With the money we bought a French Orphan. W e received a picture of the little girl, who was only six years old. She had lived in France all her life and her name was ALICE. The Sorority carried on during the year 1919 and finall y, at the end of the school year, the Pan -Helleni c had a meeting in which it was moved and seconded that all sororities of the sch ool be abolished becau se of expense and it was not democratic to "carry on" during the war.

Delta chapter has an Alumnae chapter in Pittsburgh, P ennsylvania, and our work still co ntinues.

History of Epsilon Chapter T WAS in December of 1918 that two or three girls talked over the possibility of establishing a chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau Fraternity in Templ e University, Philadelphia, P a. A committee was appointed to select who mi ght be interested in going f orwa rd .

In January of 1919 a gr oup of girl s met at 1918 orth Broa d St. and decid ed to establish the chapter. In a few da ys they met to organize and to elect officers. A petition was sent to the faculty council throu gh Dr. Laura Carnell and permission was granted to this g roup of girls to establi sh a chapter by the Dean and Council.

On February 14 th, 1919, the Epsil on Chapter was established. Two girls were sent from the AI ph a Chapter to pledge and initiate this group of ei~ht girl s and one fa culty advi~er , which was foll owed by a banquet and theatre party.

With this chapter of pleased and enthusiastic girls we launched out to make Epsilon Chapter a success and stand out among others to d o something worth while for our University and fell ow workers. We grew and were very successful under man y difficulties for f our years.

The Epsilon girls whose names do not appear in thi s directory will have an opportunity to have name and address placed in the next issue if sent to Business Manager.

History of AI ph a Grand Rapids Sigma Tau Alumnae "Should auld acquaintance be for got and neve r brought to mind ?

W e'll take a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne."

WO years ago, a group of Alpha Sigma Taus, convinced of the worthwhil eness of the sentiment thu s expressed by the Scottish bard, decided to renew old fri endships. Havin g arrived at that decision , they arran ged for a lun cheon at Hotel Rowe with Mrs. Effie Lyman, our chief patroness, as honor guest. Old coll ege days were discussed and rainbow plans laid f or the futur e of Alpha Sigma Tau .

To fa cilitate matters, an organization wa s immediatel y affected with the following officers in charge: President, Mary E. Harding; Secretary, Lila Lawrence-Full er, and Treasurer, Louise Glade-Bohl en.

The next spring Miss路 Hardin g arranged for a luncheon in the pri vate dining r oo m of the Y. W. C. A. The so rority green and gold of the decoration s brought vividl y back to us our experiences as und ergraduates. After the luncheon, we adj ourned to th e h ome of our pres ident for cards and mah-jongg.

The next meeting was the picni c in Garfi eld Park. Though but few

were present, the occasion proved a fine opportunity for talking over the happy hours of days gone by.

Several months later, Mrs. S. A. Muhlhauser was hos tess at a buffet luncheon, given to all members of the Theta Alumnae chapter.

Since that time Mrs. Muhlhauser has moved to Detroit and has become an active member of the Alpha Alumnae chapter.

The last formal meetin g was held during the Teachers' Convention in Grand Rapids. At that time, Miss Hardin g arranged for a charming lun cheon at Robinwo od, with Mrs. Effie Lyman and Mi~s Ada Norton as honor gues ts. Several members were present wh o find it difficult to attend the usual meetin gs. Again officers were elected, thi s tim e with Mrs. Louise Glade-Bohlen as president ; Mrs. Emma French-Quigl ey, secretary, and Miss Lillian Griffin, treasurer.

During the past few month s there have been no "get-to-gethers' ' of any kind, the only co ntacts being between the individual members.

Despite this lack of formal meetings, deep down in each girl 's h eart there is a true, abiding love f or Alpha Sigma Tau. Life sh ould be rich in friend ships and, somehow , those of youth seem happiest and most abiding. Someone ha s said that our friendship s sh ould be kept in constant repair. Let us say, rather, that they should be kept unmarred and ever-growing. Keep the old and make the happy acquisition of new ones; well-chosen, rich and true.

It is a great pl easure to the old members of Alpha Sigma Ta u to meet the newer members of the so r ority, and to kn ow that the upbuilding, character-makin g principles f or which we stand have been handed on and on until our fraternal circle is now considered worthy of national recog nition.

May we prosper. May each active chapter ch oo=e always to th e gl ory of its Alma lVIater, and to the sa ti sfa cti on and h onor of our bel oved patronesses, who have made our frat ernal existence possibl e.

History of Delta Alumni HE Alumni of the Delta Chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority met s ome time during the fall of 1916 to organize an Alumni Sorority chapter so that they might be a part and stand loya l to their active chapter. These girl s met once a month to co nsid er and work out plans to help their chapter and Sorority to higher and nobler ideal s. This, mingled with a social hour, had the effect of sealing and binding these friend ships in closer bonds, but the interes t lessened after the active chapter went out of existence in 1920 and sin ce there has not been much in centive to work and go forward.

It is a pleasure to report that now these girl s have renewed their interest and we h ope that it is onl y a very short time until we will have a flourishin g alumni chapter in the Pittsburgh di stri ct, and in this way we can wel come all girl s wh o are affiliated with other chapters.
