PHI ALPHA SIGMA HE past year in the life of our Fraternity has been marked. by many accomplishments and by several important changes. The Constitution and By-Laws have been re- e vised and brought up to date. The name has been changed from Fawcett School Fraternity to Phi Alpha Sigma. The finances have been put upon a sounder basis and the initiations have taken on a new dignity and impressiveness. Many new names have been added to the list of members and all these newcomers seem disposed to enter heartily into the Fra- ternity’s activities and to do their share toward furthering its inter- ests. ‘This promises well for the Fraternity’s future welfare and would indeed be a cause of much rejoicing among the individuals of that valiant little band of charter members who formed the tiny nucleus from which the present flourishing organization has sprung. The fame of our annual masque ball has spread to such an extent that representatives are sent by the New York newspapers, as well as those of Newark, to secure copy and photographs of our prize- winning costumes. Many of our alumni would make almost any sacrifice rather than miss being present on so momentous an occasion. While the meetings have not been attended by quite the huge throngs that we feel sure can lay claim to membership, still the mem- bers who have been present have shown a lively interest in all that took place and an eagerness to participate, freely voicing their senti- ments and f requently taxing the diplomatic art of President Appel, under whose patient guidance peace was always preserved and measures discussed and acted upon to the satisfaction of all. The Fraternity has, during its short but active life, filled a real need in the school—the need for social activities among the students who must, of necessity, forego many pleasures in order to attend evening classes. It has not only provided recreation but has pro- moted friendly contacts among the students and faculty that have strengthened the ties between them and have helped to keep alive the splendid spirit of fellowship which has long animated our school. The future looks bright for Phi Alpha Sigma and looking back over her happy and successful history, we feel that we can confidently look forward to many years of usefulness and service yet to come.

ANNUAL EXHIBIT Every year, in the middle of May, when the smiling sun is trans- forming the world into a veritable garden, Fawcett School mys- teriously begins a transformation of its own. Hammers are heard beating out merry tunes all day, embryo artists have turned into em- bryo carpenters, and fashion long tables out of tall desks. The very air igs vibrant with bustle and happy excitement, for the Annual Exhibit of Fawcett is on. From all quarters thousands stream into the school to see the ‘‘master-pieces” of our young New Jersey artists. This year the exhibit will be finer than ever because a new spirit of earnestness of purpose has entered the school. IRMA L. LOSI. SCHOOL MEETING While earnestly engaged at work, The principal came in, “Good morning everybody,” Now,—there’s something in the win’, “T want to speak to all the boys And girls in 102, At 12 o'clock, just stop your work k’en if you are not through.” At noon we quietly gathered there, And all sat just like mice, But soon the principal came in And spoke so very nice. “You are the finest set of folks,” That’s just how she began, “I’m sure there is no nicer To be found throughout the land.” “The Fawcett School stands for the best, Its ideals tower high, Some day we'll make the whole world know We dared to do or die.” “Be courteous everywhere you go, To others, young and old, For that’s the kind of folks who stand The test of purest gold.” “Now do not loiter in the halls But quickly get to work, And always come on time each day; Above all, do not shirk.” “Please get material always, Before the school time’s rife; And plan ahead, for you will need To do this all through life.” “Keep up with all your work each day, So when the term is ended, There’ll be no rush, no discontent And you'll be recommended.” We always like to hear her talk, In May, as in September, Because she never fails To give us something to remember.
