"People will never look forward to posterity Who never look back to their ancestors." EDMUND BURKE

This caption is not original, nor do I know to whom it should be credited. I am venturing to use it because it suggests some thoughts I would like to share with Kappas at the beginning of this year which will climax in our convention at Jasper Park in June, 1954. In our province meetings this spring we talked together about the "faith by which we live"; in our general convention next summer we will continue this theme moving on to the logical next step. How can we best translate our faith into action which will serve college and community women today? To meet this challenge we mus~ understand ourselves, must know what our resources are, and be aware of the world in which we live. It behooves us then to "think on these things" in our chapters and associations this year so we will be prepared for the questions which will come before the convention. To that end I would like to share with you an experience of the summer which has given me a new perspective, greater faith in our reasons for being and a sense of being a part of high adventure. Of course I have long known the facts about the founding of 'Kappa ·at Mon­ mouth College in 1870 and have listened to the stories told by our early mem­ bers. It was not until this summer that I visited the campus and came under its spell. Nineteen hundred and fifty-three marks the one hundredth birthday of Monmouth. Because of our many years in the college we were honored with an invitation to the Centennial Commencement. It was a thrilling occasion, but to me no words can tell the story of the college as vividly as the lovely campus with its ancient trees, sweeping lawns and ivied walls of mellow brick spoke of the past while the shining (aces of the students revealed the continuance of vitality in the present: It was not long after the stalwart pioneers had come into Illinois from across the Atlantic and Jrom eastern states that Monmouth College was founded. These God-fearing men and women who built their schools and their churches along with their homes brought with them not only courage and enthusiasm, but staunch belief in the fundamental virtues, a sense of personal responsibility and concern for each other's welfare. It is to be remembered that it was in this tradition that the early students at Monmouth were nurtured, this was their "past," their heritage. To the young women students especially, college offered a thrilling adventure. Not many as yet had enjoyed such a privilege. We may be sure they were grateful for the opportunity and felt they should prove themselves able and worthy. What more natural than that those who shared these concerns should find each other and band together for encouragement and companionship? And so our fraternity was born. Because those six young women had a serious purpose, they wrote it down in serious words . . .. "an association for the development of the nobler qualities of the mind and the finer feelings of the heart . .. for mutual helpfulness in the attainment of individual and social excellence." This is our "past," our heritage. Can we find a better guide for the future?

On May 3, 12 alumnre met for the annual board of directors meeting at the Hearthstone, Winter Park, Florida. The purpose-a combined meeting of the national board of directors, the resident board of directors, the chairman of the Fraternity's finance committee and the special study committee, the latter authorized by our 1952 convention. Mrs. A. H. Roth, chairman of the Hearthstone national board of directors, presided over our joint efforts for a complete survey of the physical plant and financial setup of Hearthstone. Redecorating was authorized where deemed necessary and a revised budget made for 1953-54. A "five year plan" for additional improvements was adopted. A progress report from the study committee on Hearthstone will b~ ·sent to all alumnre groups before the 1954 convention.

Before the meeting adjourned, Helen Steinmetz and Mary Jo Davis of the resident board had extended all the Florida cowtesies to the out of state visitors; Alice Hostetler and Jo Eberspacher took advantage of the Hearthstone Lake frontage for a daily "before breakfast swim"; Kay Walz, Mary Jim Chickering, Dorothy Keys and Florence Roth particularly enjoyed the Florida seafood dinners; ·and Anna Maude Smith delved into all the recipe departments possible while in the south. We all hope that this "on the spot" business session of these combined groups helps make the Hearthstone a key to your winter vacation planning.

Policewomen are on a par with men of the force, subject to the same authority and Kappa C A R E E R S discipline, though being women, they are in the making more frequently liable to be assigned to the juvenile division than to homicide. Girls who like to work FOR and WITH people can put their psychology, sociology, and very often language courses into positive action. Salary too is a drawing card. New York City pays $3725 to start, including about $600 in Civil•i§ed bonuses. (Bonuses are another big benefit city jobs offer.) And within only three years after Serva·nt joining up a policewoman can expect to reach a maximum salary-about $5000, which is by no means a mediocre income to have three by Helen Zotos, -Boston years out of college.

Their tiny hands were rough and chapped from much exposure to the icy mountain winds. The smaller of the two had a thin "windbreaker" serving as an overcoat.
