serve to keep track of the addresses of the membership of the various classes, both for the information of the class members, hut materially assist the corresponding secretary of the alumni association in the work of locating the alumni. Another direction which alumni organization has taken has been the formation of a women’s association in Denver. This organization has been largely social in its nature, hut has served to keep the women together and the association plans many things for the good of the alumni and the University as well. Through the general alumni association assisted by the sub-organizations the reunion of 1916 was such a success that it marked an epoch in alumni reunions. The festivities started at 2 o’clock in the afternoon and lasted until 10 o’clock at night. A crowd of four hundred were present, and all keenly enjoyed it. Prior to the endowment campaign the alumni issued a weekly or biweekly bulletin, which was distributed to all the alumni. Since the endowment campaign the association issues a quarterly which is sent at the expense of the association to all alumni of all departments of the University whether they pay alumni dues or not. This publication brings each alumnus, no matter where he lives, into touch with the association and its plans. The alumni during the past year have erected a “senior fence on the campus which will serve, it is hoped, to establish a new tradition on the campus, of which there are too few. The alumni are slowly becoming educated to the point of habitually paying the alumni dues of one dollar a year. During the first year of our rejuvenation the number paying dues increased three hundred per cent, and during the first half of the second year nearly equaled the total amount collected for the preceding year. The association as a whole has a vision of many fields of usefulness to its own members, to the University and to society as a whole. While it may take many years to accomplish many of our plans, yet a good start has been made, and with our present enthusiasm, and the hope of greater enthusiasm, and persistence, we hope to finally “arrive.” Pa Twcaty-m
