Our Natal Day To All Brothers in Pi Kappa Phi: The anniversary of the foundipg of Pi Kappa Phi is again approaching and as the day, which means so much to us, nears, I call upon all Brothers in the Order to realize the significance of the anniversary, and to do honor to those who conceived the idea of concretely expressing their friendship by the organization of Pi Kappa Phi. It has been aptly said that those honored Brothers, Fogarty, Mixson and Kroeg, simply gave a name to their friendship when they agreed among themselves to organize a fraternity. On December 10, we, who have been so fortunate as to be called to follow in their footsteps, ought to turn our minds and thoughts back to our Primary Day, and attempt to catch the true spirit of Pi Kappa Phi, as first conceived and first executed. Brothers, we should resolve on this day to seek to attain the ideal of friendship and brotherhood that our founders set up, and we should so live and move that we will exemplify the true meaning of fraternity and brotherhood for which Pi Kappa Phi stands. Let Brothers far and near come together on this day, and in some measure honor those who founded our Order, and to pay reverent tribute to the memory of him, who has been called to the "Chapter House beyond the skies." Fraternally yours,

Supreme Archon.

Going to Chicago

0 to Chicago" has been officially heeded by Pi Kappa P hi. After January 1, 1927, the central office of the Fraternity will be re moved from Charleston, S. C., the city of our birth, to the nation's second largest city. This decision was reached at the Supreme Council meeting at Charleston in October. The move should result in great good for the F raternity. The location of our administrative offices in Chicago w ill g ive us a broadened vision . The offices wilt be in close contact with the great middle-west and its influenti al universiti es. Surely with in a few years, we will see that no mi stake was made when it was decided to "go to Chicago."

Liquor and Gambling Tabooed C7::: HERE can be no mistaking the attitude of -~ "Pi Kappa P hi toward the use of liquor and the practice of gambling in chapter hou ses of the Fraternity. T he re olution, condemning and prohibiting such practices in chapter houses, adopted at the Charleston meeting of the Supreme Council, leaves no room for doubt. The office rs of Pi Kappa P hi absolutely refuse to countenance a ny violations of these regulations, and all duly elected officers, of Supreme or chapter rank, are charged with the duty enforcing these regulations.

'l'h e good name of ] i Kappa Phi shall be protected, in so far a drinking and gambling arc concerned. We shall have none of it ; and should violations occur offenders will be dealt with according to the Supreme Laws of the Fraternity.

"At the time our local fraternity (of which I was the founder) made appli cation to Pi Kappa P hi , the U niversity of Cincinnati atld the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music were working out plans for affi li ation a nd interchange of cred its. The year following our installation as Theta Chapter, these neg~ti ati on s fell through , and were not revived until a few years ago al whi ch time an accord was reached. "I realized our predicament when I ( in 1914. unofficially) made overtures to a local frate rnity. or club rather, at the University, and found that Th eta Chapter, not being in a school of standing, would of necessity hinder the growth of the fraternity. I took this matter up with Brother Mixson, then supreme archon, at once, and it was by mutu al consent that we surrendered our charter. I do not know if there is documentary proof of this or nol, but th e main idea in founding Theta Chapter was to graduallY work it over into th e University, which would have been possible had the plans of affiliation been completed at that time. "Theta did not join a professional music fraternity, but functioned as a closed chapter, until we were scattered by the war."

Faithfol to The Trust ""'"""""'============""""'"''

November 19 , 1926. Alpha Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, College of Charleston, Charleston, S. C. Dear Brothers: In 1910 the Supreme Courcil appointed Alpha Chapter the custodian of the Charter of Incorporation granted to Pi Kappa Phi by the State of South Carolina, to remain in its possession until such time as the frate•r nity should have a national home or headquarters of its own where this charter would be kept. Faithful to that trust, Alpha has preserved the charter in its chapter hall ever since. _ At the meeting of the Supreme Council held here October , 23rd it was agreed that since the fraternity now has a central office where the national charter should be kept, and in view of the added dangers of damage from fire or other causes through being moved about with chapter property, that the time has come to relieve Alpha of that responsibility. The Supreme Council instructs me, therefore, to express the thanks of the fraternity to Alpha Chapter for having preserved the document during these years, and to request that the charter now be delivered to the Central Office, in view of the contemplated removal of the office to Chicago. It has not appearecf feasible, or necessary, to issue Alpha a special charter as a subordinate chapter, as we desire to date its origin from Dec-ember 10 , 1904 , and a charter could not have been issued to it as d subordinate chapter until after the fraternity became incorporated, December 23, 190 7. Please deliver the charter to the above address at your early convenience, and oblige . . Yours in Pi Kappa Phi, Central Office: Charleston , S. C.

PHI BETA KAPPA {('\ N December 5, 1926, the oldest college fraternity in the United States will celebrate its one hundred fiftieth anniversary. Founded at the College of William and Mary, in Virginia, December 5, 1776, Phi Beta Kappa was at first a secret organization and it remained so until 1831. Since that time Phi Beta Kappa has been an honorary society drawing its membership from those students who have the highest scholarship and are taking courses leading to the A. B. degree or its equivalent. It admits both men and women to membership in its 107 chapters located in the leading universities and colleges of the United States. Personality and lively participation in student activities of the college carry no weight in determining the candidates for membership in Phi Beta Kappa, and this wise policy has borne abundant fruit as is evidenced by the wonderful array of talent and genius found among the 65,000 men and women who have been honored with the Phi Beta Kappa Key. With a total membership not more than one in three thousand -three one-hundredths of one per cent-of the population, Phi Beta Kappa has furnished nearly half of the Nation's famous men and over one hundred times its quota to the leaders of the state, the bench, the bar, art, letters and affairs. Among its membership are eleven Presidents of the United States: John Quincy Adams, Martin Van Buren, Franklin Pierce, Rutherford B. Hayes, James A. Garfield, Chester A. Arthur, Grover Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt, ·w illiam H. Taft, Woodrow Wilson, and Calvin Coolidge. Other great wearers of the key were John Marshall, Daniel Webster, John Hay, Joseph Story, Joseph H. Choate, Rufus Choate, Mark Hopkins, Samuel F. B. Morse, Eli Whitney, Edward Everett, Wendell Phillips, W. H. Prescott, I-Ienry W. Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson, John G. Whittier, Oliver Wendell Holmes, James Russell Lowell, William Cullen Bryant, Wash-

\:::J

ington Irving, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Samuel L. Clemens, Henry Cabot Lodge, and James Bryce. A study of the Directory of Phi Beta Kappa will prove a revelation to one who has not understood nor realized the close relation between high scholarship in college and success in after life. Certainly it is a privilege as well as an honor and distinction to be numbered among this great group of American leaders.

SHOULD STUDENTS STUDY This is the title of an excellent little book which every student should read. In it will be found statistical studies of the relationship and high correlation between excellent scholarship in high school and college and success in later life. We all know that a habit once formed is difficult to break or change, and this applies to mental habits as well as to other kinds of habits. That man who in college does his work in a careless, shipshod manner will, in general, do his life's work in a similar way. The habits of industry, punctuality, honesty and intellectual achievement displayed by the student in high school and college U.'ill be the habits of the man after he leaves college. The student who spends most of his time attending the "sideshows of college" and neglects his studies, will fritter away much of his time in later life, for more or less purposeless habits cannot be dropped except through great effort and perseverance. One of the greatest problems facing coll ege fraternities today is that of scholarship. At the present time at one large mid-western university thirty per cent of the national social fraternities have been denied the privilege of holding dances or house parties because of the low scholarship of their members. And this low scholarship is not due to their "pledges" but to their active membership, many of whom have only one talent and are losing that in the mad scramble after social and athletic distinctions. The time will come when all fraternities, which expect to sur-


Tr-r:E STAR AND LAMP of Pr KAPPA PI-Ir vive, will, in choosing their men, insist on the candidates meeting one additional requirement to what is now generally demanded, namely, that lhe candidate stand in scholarship among the Upper half or three-fourths of his high school graduating class. A man with a poor scholarship record is poor fraternity material regardless · of the cut of his clothes and the polish of his rnanners. The fraternity man of the future will not only be a gentleman but a man of culture as \veil.

THE PI KAPPA PHI SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM '!'he Committee on Scholarship will soon send out to all the Chapters an announcement of the Committee's plans for the future. The hearty cooperation of a ll Pi Kapps is desired in this Work, which we hope will soon show such re·ults as to increase our pride in our fraternity.

Addison Neighbors, known as "Cotton," is Beta's leading athlete.

This selection is considered one of the t11ost authoritative, and the naming of Brother Wickhorsi should be a distinct compliment.

Jar. Although being both new men on the varsity they have played in all of the games this season. Brother Holtzclaw, having been out of school for the past two years, returned this year and is playing his first year of varsity football. For the first time in its history the inter-fraternity council has admitted a newly-established chapter of a national automatically into its ranks. Pi Kappa Phi was admitted as the fourteenth member as oon as the Alpha-Iota Chapter, having been recommended by the council while a local, was installed. The representatives of Pi Kappa Phi on the council this year are Brothers Russell and Wilkins. Each year the inter-frateh1ity council offers for competition loving cups for scholarship, tennis, track and basketball. Up to this year locals have only been eligible for the track cup and we are very fortunate in that we now hold this cup. \Ve are out for the other three cups this year and hope that the end of the year will find our endeavors rewarded.
