Click, click, and off go lights throughout all dormitories. The ten- thirty bell has sounded its peal, and the hall and house presidents end the busy day with the familiar phrase, lights out, reminding that all should be asleep. Sleep — never for some girls, when there is anything else to do. They are the girls who yell, play radios too loud during study hour or afterwards, or even wash after light bell, and regret it the next morning, when they go stumbling, sleepy-eyed, to breakfast. What a miserable life they make the hall presidents lead. Of course a gentle reminder is necessary for these girls, and most of the time a call-down follows on its heels. Study hall looms over the heads of just such girls as these. No one likes that. One whole week, a definite place to study, a definite length of time, no talking, no laughing, no letter writing, nothing but deathly silence and bored study. What a miserable life! Besides this duty, the House Council has another one, which we con- sider of equal importance, and that is to know just where they may find the girls, in case Johnnie would call, or Mother would call to give a permission and we were studying in another building or attending a meet- ing elsewhere. Of course these calls would never be got, if it wasn ' t for the House Council. Heartfelt appreciation is extended to this untiring body of hard workers. A desire to cooperate with other organizations, tact, patience, understanding, and thoughtful consideration are just some of the attributes of the House Council.

Alpha Kappa Gamma To foster and recognize that quality which distinguishes the leader from her followers — this is the two-fold purpose of Alpha Kappa Gamma, national honorary fraternity for leadership. The true leader humbly seeks service, devoting her talents for the good of others. Alpha Kappa Gamma embodies the spiritual virtues of service, modesty, and forgetfulness of self-ambition in the urge to give to its Alma Mater and the individuals with whom it contacts the best it has to give.
