The Grand President's Page THE DESIRE TO BE .RECOGNIZED as a leader in business, in the com~unity, in social activities and in all human relationships, is a desire as Amenca1,1 as ice cream. There ~re few individuals who do not consciously or subconsciously wish to excel at whatever activity engages their interests. If it be sports, they want to win; if it be business, they want to do a better job, both for reasons of ego satisfaction and for money; if it be politics, they want to be on the winning side; if it be social activity, they want to be ackno:vl~dged and ap­ preciated. Whether the ambition be entirely laudable or not, 1t ~s perhaps the most important of the motivating forces which has mad~ ~~enca great, and it is certainly necessary that a considerable number of md1v1duals have such ambitions in our democratic society and American way of life. Until a few years ago, all care of the needy in our country was pr~vided ~y private contribution and organization. Even now under th~ ~ar-reachmg .social programs developed in the last 25 years, the great bulk of 1t IS. To org?mze, to operate, and to finance such activities requires a great arno~nt. o! time and energy, which must be provided by a considerable number of ~nd~v~duals, who will give their time and their money. Obviously, only those m~IVIduals who have abilities, and those who can spare the money can do the ] ob. They are the leaders, and these are among the burdens of leadership. The operation of a democratic form of government demands that large num- WALTER c. SEHM, Minnesota hers of people shall inform themselves, shall spend time in attending meetings, Grand President of Delta Sigma Pi selecting candidates for office, and in informing others, as well as serving in positions of trust and responsibility. It is necessary that such activities be im­ plemented by the expenditure of money, which can come only from those in­ dividuals 'Who can afford to give. They are the leaders, and these are among the burdens of leadership. Whether we as individuals feel any personal need for religious expression, or whether we regard the church in our community from a moral, spiritual, or ethical viewpoint, we must all agree that religion is a tremendous force in our society, as it has been and is in all societies, and that the force it exerts is good rather tqan bad. Congregations are made up of individuals, and the organizations of the church must be carried out by individuals. It must have revenue and much of its work and all of its money must come from individuals who have abilities and who can afford to give the money. They are the leaders, and these are among the burdens of leadership. Keeping the communities in which we live free of crime, physically clean, and economically desirable is a never-ending task which requires an active public opinion, and the promotion of various community projects and enterprises. Some of these require money. These energies must come from people who have the ability and will sacrifice the time necessary, and the money must come from those who can afford to give. They are the leaders, and these are among the burdens of leadership. Delta Sigma Pi exists only as a part of college education. Our members come from that group who have had in generous measure the benefit of training and experience, provided for them at tremendous expense, either public or private, the primary purpose of which is to fit those individuals to be better citizens and to be leaders in our economic society. A part of that training is the very association together in undergraduate chapters, and the participation by the undergraduate chapters in campus activities, politics, and sports. These are but training in group living, and laboratory experiments in the work which the members will take up as alumni. From these people it is expected that a great pro­ portion of the leaders of tomorrow will come. If it is not so, our whole college system is a ghastly waste of time and money. We look to these people to assume the burdens of leadership for the next generation. We join Delta Sigma Pi, rather than XYZ, because we think it is a leading fraternity. We laud the undergraduate chapter because it is active on the campus, and because it does assume the jobs which have to be done in the college or university, and because it is successful in meeting the challenge of campus politics or intramural sports. The leaders cannot escape the burdens of leadership. Upon the men of Delta Sigma Pi, therefore, falls much more heavily those burdens. The individual Deltasig must assume those burdens. From the time he leaves school and for the rest of his economic life, he must recognize that he has those responsibilities to society. He must assume those burdens without any hope of specific reward. Of monetary reward there is none, and other than the self-satisfaction of doing one's job, there is no other reward. Each of us must, therefore, recognize that we must find time from our private busi­ ness, our family interests, and our recreational pursuits, to devote to one or more of sueh social activities, and we must face up to the financial responsibility and do our respective duties at all times. * * * * 0 F D E L T A s p ·I

Several of the men have written articles for the leading journals. Although it has been sometimes difficult to hire young doc. tors and certified public accountants in the past few years, over-50% of the teachers have terminal degrees. Six specialized fields of curriculum are furnished to stu­ dents; accounting, business law, management, marketing, sec­ retarial administration and business teaching. All students are given a comprehensive course in their first two years in such subjects as English, government and history, laboratory sciences and mathematics. Economics and account· ing essentials fill out their preparation for the final two years of specialization in one of the fields previously mentioned.

There are seminar and research rooms as well as rooms of conventional type. Windows make up a large percentage of the walls of the classrooms in the modern building, giving students a maximum of light. . For business machines courses the usual variety of popular types of machines are all available. Special equipment for office practice and secretarial science courses is also present.

The Official Ring of Delta Sigma Pi is attractively de· signed with an amethyst stone.

Adams St., Chicago 6 process, each ...... $1.50 Delta Sigma Pi, 222 W. Adams St., Chicago 6 e of u en and Chapter Loans an Delta Sigma Pi's Endowment CONSTRUCTIO BY LIFE MEMBERS Of 6t

THE blu~prints were completed in 1930 for the National Endowment Fund of Delta Sigma Pi. They provided for the eventual perpetuation of the fraternity and the creation of a fund from which chapters could obtain means to finance housing and students could secure loans which would enable them to complete their college education.

1500 Life Members have already provided the foundation for the National Endowment Fund, and the loans which have already been made to chapters and scores of students have convinced the architects of the soundness of these blueprints. Your Life Membership is needed to continue the construction of the National Endowment Fund.

The $50 which it will cost you for a Life Membership is not a gift or donation in any sense of the word as you will receive in return copies of the national magazine, The DELTASIG; the ALUMNI NEWS and all of the services of the fraternity for life.

A beautiful Life Membership certificate and an attractive Life Membership card will be sent to you. You will also have an immeasurable amount of satisfaction in knowing that you have contributed to the growth of the National Endowment Fund, enabling students to complete their education and chapters to obtain fraternity houses.

Select the plan of enrollment which is most convenient to you and pick out your "knothole" through which you can view the construction of the National Endowment Fund. You may send your check for $50, which is the total cost; or you may elect to send $5 a month for ten months; or you may send $10 a month for five months. Applications and remittances should be mailed to The Central Office of Delta Sigma Pi in Chicago.
