Neither the Editor nor the Board of Directors is necessarily in sympathy with any of the opinions expressed in THE DIILTA.SIO. We feel that one of the mo st important missions of a fraternity magazine is to cauae the members to think about th emselv es; thought being the chief desiredation, authors are aomtimes solicited for expressions of opinions in the feeling that their opinions are wrong, but likely to stimulate argument. Mrunbera of the fra ternity are invited to contribute special articles on business and fraternity topics, and news items, concerning alumni. Closing date for receipt of material for each iaaue is the ft rst day of the month of the date of issue. EDITORIAL OFFICE-222 W. Adams St., Chicago; III. PUBLICATION OFFICE-111 N.
