"Sororities are legitimate social organizations, bin steps si Id he taken to

Danger of over work by club officers

"When

officers, thus overloading individuals, and
not giving all a free chance, the club
is a failure," she declared,
"I believe (he (Iirls Athletic association to be the most important social

Religious organizations .should present

The Sill; Coquette.
By Edwin Bateman Morris. 33G pp.
Philadelphia:
Peon.
In a mild sort of way " T h e Silk Coquette" entertains,
but beyond that not much can be said for it. It is the story
of a man whom unusual circumstances throw into closer
contact with a regulation "society pet." the daughter of a
politician. The girl, Diane Markha.n. is to be married to
a man of her own wealth and social position, and the hook
is the story of the battle between the (wo men and I he
forces they typify.
Some or the situations are unique;
there is humor which is often real and the story i< well
put together.
The Ed»c of Eternity.
Bv Aida Rodman DeMilt. .LIS
pp. New York: Reader Publications.
This is a romance of travel and adventure in southern
Europe and in America. The author has been able to
build up a thrilling story without sacrificing the feeling
that belongs to every one who enjoys travel accounts. It
is her nVsl excursion, so far as we know, from the realm
of tales strictly of travel into the field of fiction. The
unconventional hero is sent by an adventure which he
didn't desire over .1 stormy way through perils in the glaciers of the Swiss Alps. Put romance has n- way in llnend, and he wins his reward.

GET INTO THE OPEN
Cramming time for examinations is over, a breathing
space has arrived, and an opportunity to get out into the
open has come. T h e period of late winter often taxes the
bodily endurance most, and exercise in the fresh air is
needed to counteract the enforced imprisonment in stuffy
classrooms during the week. The opportunity offered by
the Girls Athletic association comes therefore at an auspicious lime. T h e association has obtained the Use of a
camp for week-end parties from the Girl Scouts. T h e
camp is ideally equipped for the housing of groups of
young women over the week-end and is conveniently
reached from Albany, Several groups of College students
have already enjoyed its privileges this winter. Those who
have not, have a treat in store for them.
