(1867-1957)

“To be the founders, the very first to lay the foundation of a Fraternity, is a privilege that comes to but few, so it is not surprising we accept so graciously the honor and courtesy bestowed on us. However, the real credit, the success and reputation belong to girls who have steadily and faithfully worked and built on that foundation year after year.”
