As many come home to Mother Howard, we notice that this year there arc a few missing members Since 1924 of the family. The recent organizational suspensions and the inactivity of others is definitely a disheartening affair. Those who do not lhink much or students will probably link the absence of these organizations 10 some deep-rooted deprav ity inside the membership. A more introspective look will show that these problems arc not new. The past 10 years have seen all the organizations come and go. Donya J.
