Telegram from Maud Powell, 1908
This is a 1908 telegram from Maud Powell (Alpha, DePauw University) from Tacoma, Washington. She was responding to an invitation to convention but was touring at the time in the U.S., Canada and Europe. In a 1909 Lyre article she wrote, “We must give our fraternity a reason for existing – and that reason must be one that is worthwhile for now and for the future.”
