FOURTH BIENNIAL SESSION AT
THE sHoREHAM HOTEL.

The fourth biennial convention of Chi
Omega, a national women's college So
ciety, was opened this morning by the SUI
preme governing council, which met in ex-
ecuttve session at o'clock at the Shore
ham. The council Is represented by Ida
Pace Purdue, S. H. (Mrs. A. H. Purdue), of
Fayetteville, Ark; Emmie Leila Grambling,
S. T. B., Marietta, Ca; Jessie Anna
Parker, S. K. A., Olathe. Kan; May Gull
lette Miller, S. N. ", Fort Smith, Ark:
Bessie Miriam Krape. S. M, and Matte
Holiday Craighill, Lynchburg, Va,
At 3 o'clock both the members of the
council and the visiting delegates had
picnic dinner at Cabin John. The trip
was made by special car.
The opening session will be held at o
O clock tomorrow in the lecture room of
George Washington University, and there
will be daily sessions devoted to business,
diversified with pleasure jaunts in the aft
ernoons. The final session will be held Fri
day afternoon, and on the same evening
there will be banquet at the Shoreham,
which is headquarters for Chi Omega
throughout their stay. All meetings are
executive.
The supreme social event of the week will
be the White House reception Thursday
afternoon when President Roosevelt will
receive the council and delegates.
The society has chapters in every college
of standing in the south and west, where
other conventions have been held, twice in
Arkansas and once in st. Louis. The So
ciety also has member from South
America and another from Hawaii. The
recent establishment of several eastern
chapters made Washington a good location
for this convention. which it is believed
will be the largest and most interesting in
the history of the fraternity.
Like all Greek letter societies, the guard
ing of the fraternity secrets is one of the
main links which hold the members to-
gether. AS one Of the authorities of the
society puts 1t: THE we know something
that none outside our ranks knows gives
peculiar and almos unanalyzable feeling OF
union"
The uninitiated public, therefore, will
know nothing of the interesting question to
be discussed by Chi Omega for the next
four DAVIS.
