Tar Water as Medicine
n 173o Rishon Rerkelev pr

In 1879 Bishop Berkeley. Protest
ant bishop Of Cloyne, in Ireland,
found during a visit to America
that the Indians of Narragansett
made lavish use Of tar in concoct-
ing their medical nostrums. The
people of his diocese at this time
were stricken with violent illness,
and he became obsessed with the
idea Of the efficacy of tar water for
all maladies. He wrote treatise
on the virtues of tar water which
drew down upon him the indigna-
ton of medical men and the ridi-
cule Of the American and British
newspapers Of the time.

Sorority and two Representatives
of the Ann Arbor chapter assem-
bled in the social rooms of the Y.

honor their famous Soror, Anne
Virgins Brown. Miss Brown sings
the role OF Bess in the opera
"Porgy and Bess," which played
to capacity houses at the Cass
Theatre last week.
Soror Brown was entertained at
a beautiful appointed banquet,
which had been carefully planned
by Marion Rawlings and her COM
mittee. The spirit of A. K. A. con-
seriousness which dominated the
affair was enhanced by the singing
of Sorority songs and by the use
of Sorority colors in the decora-
tons. In behalf of the Sorority,
Soror Rawlings presented Soror
Brown a beautiful leather book
cover, on which the initials of A.
X. A. was engraved in gold. In ac-
cepting the token Soror Brown said
that the one thing of which she is
most proud is the fact that she is
an A. K. A. Closing remarks were
made by Soror Beulah T. Whitby
