I've belonged to other womens organizations but never felt so welcome as in the Alpha group never such genuine friendliness, sincerity and harmony. There is no pettiness there. I've observed men gossiping as badly as women but as FPs you seem to desire only those qualities ad- mirable in a GG. Thank you for the new interest you have given me and for enriching my life. Although I went to teach, I found that I'd just begun to learn.

MILESTONE

Alpha Chapter FPE celebrated it's 7th annual Christmas with a banquet. We got brave, asked the hotel where we have been meeting about it. They were happy to oblige so we had a steak dinner party, presents the works - party dresses, party decorations, punch before- hand 28 people sat down including 8 GGs - a marvelous experience for all.
