That "if winter comes, can
spring be far behind" feeling is
now in the air for the State So
cieties. Last Monday, the Cherry
Blossom Festival came up for
discussion among the society
representatives attending the
conference of State societies at
the Senate Office Building.
In order to expedite matters
regarding the selection of each
States princess, it was decided
that Mr.. John Sleer, chairman of
the conference, would act as liza
ison between the societies and
Mr.. Joseph Arata of the Greater
National Capital Committee.
Each society will select a chair
man, who, in turn, will report
the progress on the selection of
a princess to Mr.. Sleer, who, in
turn, will divulge the situation
to Mr.. Arata. And if none of
this is clear, then call Mr.. Sleer.
And that concludes the poetic
thought for the week.
Apparently the recommends
tions are standard for each girl
in line to be a princess. She
must, or should admit to be, be-
tween 18 and Is years of age: a
native or resident of the State
she is representing; and her
present status should be single
Minnesota, as well as Arkansas
already has sounded the horn to
be on the alert for a prospective
princess. Minnesota will honor
their selected candidate on Feb
ruary IA at the Wardman Park
and today Arkansas will nomi-
nate and introduce the candi-
dates in the Caucus Room of the
Senate Office Building from
until 5 o'clock. Illinois, for some
odd reason, still thinks that
spring is way far behind. so they
will have their mid-winter dance
next Saturday at the Shoreham

State Societies Preparing

give Illinois time, they'll turn up
with princess yet!
Aside from the subject at hand
the State societies are a grand
opportunity for newcomers in
Washington still to remain in
touch with their home State. AL
though new friends are always
being made, a sentimental at
tachment to those from your own
State still remains. If you should
feel a slight pang of homesick-
ness, go to the next dance that
your State gives. It will make
you glad you came to Washing
ton to meet your neighbor, and
at the same time, it will make
you feel right at home"
