SOCIETY. SHITH ALUWME TOGATHERIN. . Distinguished Figures in Col- lege’s Life to Join in Jan- uary Program. Special Dispatch to The Star, NORTHAMPTON, Mass., December 22 —The Smith College Alumnae As- sociation, which has a membership larger than any other alumnae organ- jzation, will meet in Washington, D. C.. on January 19, when graduates from all over the country will gather in the Nation's Capital for the first association meeting held away from Northampton since 1929. Mrs. R. M. Kauffmann of Washington is the chairman in charge of the Washing- ton meeting. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt will re- ceive the alumnae at the White House at noon. The rest of the day wiil be occupied with a full program of events for the visiting Smith women. The day will begin with an especially ar- ranged visit to the Folger Shakespeare Library at 10:30. Mrs. John W. Guider, president of the Washington Smith Club, will preside at a luncheon at the Hotel Carlton at 1 o'clock, at which Mrs. W. Chapin Huntington of ‘Washington, national president of the Alumnae Association: Miss Marjorie A. Nicholson, dean of the college, and Constance Morrow, daughter of Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow and a senior at Smith and an officer of the Student Government Association, will speak. Tea for Secondary Students. At 3:30 a tea for secondary students and their parents will be given at the club house of the American Associa- tion of University Women, when Miss Morrow will again speak, as well as Mrs. Frank Teagle of Cleveland, an alumnae trustee of the college. Mrs. Huntington will preside at the tea. Another tea will be given at 4 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Hogan, at which time Dr. William Allan Neilson, president of Smith College, will comment on the Hogan collection of rare books. President Neilson will speak at a dinner at 8 o'clock at the Hotel Carl- ton for alumnae, parents of students in college and guests. Mrs. George B. Ford, resident trustee of the col- lege, will preside, and William A. Orton, professor of economics at Smith, author and authority on inter- national affairs, will also speak. Development of Regional Idea. The development of the regional meeting is one of many projects which have grown up since the inception in 1881 of the Alumnae Association, with & present membership of over 10,000. In 1907 the association acquired an office on the campus and a full time general secretary, Florence H. Snow, who is still serving in that capacity. The 27 years in which she has directed the activities of the association have seen the growth of the Alumnae Council, the founding of the Smith Alumnae Quarterly, the establishment of the,alumnae fund, the formation of the alumnae week end and the ad- vancement of the association to a foremost position in the field of adult education with the establishment of the Alumnae College. The Alumnae Council had its be- ginning in 1907 to fill the need that was felt to bring about closer rela- tions between the alumnae trustees and the alumnae. It assembles in Northampton in February and over 150 delegates from the clubs scattered throughout the United States and the classes come as guests of the college to transact much preliminary busi- ness preparatory to laying it before the association meeting in June. Growth of Magazine. The Alumnae Quarterly first made its appearance in October, 1909, and in 25 years has grown from a maga- zine of 42 pages and list of 920 sub- scribers to one of more than 100 pages and 7.000 subscribers. It has been awarded three prizes and one honorable mention by the American Alumni Council, in competition with 100 other alumni and alumnae maga- zines. The alumnae have made tireless efforts towards raising funds for the alumnae gymnasium, the library, the students’ building, the chemistry building, the infirmary, the $100,000 fund, to build John M. Greene Hall, the $1,000,000 fund, the $4,000,000 fund, and numerous other funds for equipment, scholarships, faculty sal- aries, and other needs of the college. The total of funds given personally by the alumnae toward these pro- jects is at present, so far as the fig- ures are available, over $4,000,000, Use of Alumnae Fund. The Alumnae Fund was started in 1912 and was to be voted for a specific purpose each year. This en- terprise was interrupted by the war during which all available money was diverted to war work. The Smith College Relief Unit in France was not organized originally as.an Alumnae Association venture, but it soon be- came so, and the alumnae, through the association, contributed nearly $250,000 to its war service fund. The fund was re-established in 1927 with Mrs. George B. Ford, resident trustee, as chairman of the Fund Committee, and the principle was established of encouraging the alumna to give once a year through her class. Each June the association has voted on a proj- ect to which the fund would be given the following year. In the seven years since reorganization of the fund faculty salaries, scholarships and graduate fellowships have received yearly gifts determined by the need of the year. The fund each year has averaged over $56,000. The Alumnae Week-End was estab- lished in 1928 in an effort to provide an occasion when the alumnae can go back to the college as they knew it and recapture the feeling of being in college. Last October there were nearly 400 on the campus for this occasion. In the field of adult education, the Alum- nae Association made its first experi- ment with Alumnae Reading Lists in 1924, which proved so popular that they have been distributed ever since. “Alumnae College” Activities. One of the things of which Smith alumnae are most proud is the par- ticipation of the Northampton insti- tution in the “alumni college” move- ment, most recent development along the lines of adult and alumni educa- tion. Lafayette College was the first man'’s college to attempt it and Smith was among the first of the women’s colleges to participate. The first Emith “alumnae college” was held in 1933, with an attendance of 210, while last year the number of those attend- ing the five-day session jumped to 259, Husbands of alumnae are invited and welcomed and the “students” are housed in college dormitories with all the recreational facilities of the col- lege placed at their disposal. The session begins the day after com- mencement and there are three lec- tures daily by outstanding members of the faculty. Opportunity is thus afforded both men and women for inexpensive vacation, including many Summer sports, in a delightful cli- mate, together with a chance to get 4 THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTO Prominent in Smith College Meeting Center picture: The Grecourt Gates, the main entrance to the Smith College campus. 2 | hosts These gates are reproductions of the gates at the Chateau Robecourt at Grecourt, France, the headquarters of the Smith College relief unit during the war.

In- dications are that this early Sum- mer institution will become increas- ingly popular with the years. Purposes of the Meeting. Interest already evidenced in the Washington gathering indicates that the regional meeting is to take its im- portant place in the full and varied program carried out by the Alumnae Association. The concentration of a single day’s selective program, pre- sented in stimulating new surround- ings, does for alumnae in different parts of the country what the meet- ings on the campus do for those who can return to them. Through first- hand friendly contact with representa- tives of the administration, trustees, | faculty, undergraduates and alumnae officers, dust is shaken from diplomas, rumors are laid to rest, accurate and inspiring knowledge of the present- day college and its progress is gained, good will is established on a surer footing and the faraway alumna be- comes again a well informed and potentially active member of the col- lege family. CHILDREN’S READING HOURS ESTABLISHED Library Program for Week Is Not to Apply During Monday and Tuesday.

SOCIETY |deal for Ordinary Occasions PRING will see us in straight, simple frocks like this one — belts of contrast and collars to match. These chic dresses are ideal for wear on the sidelines, at business, shopping, college class room and tea drinking (if it is in- formal). Their softness of style gives them preference over orthodox shirt- waist dresses, which—strictly speak- ing—should not have a look-in after 5 o'clock. Beginners will like making this dress. It is ever so simple in con- struction. However, it can be formal- ized with beautiful fabric, and when it is, nothing looks smarter. Most any of the late Winter silks are right in weight for tailoring it well. Indications are for a colorful fabric season. Sensible town clothes will, no doubt, be of navy, black, gunmetal or medium gray, with touches of bright color for contrast. Our occasional dresses may be gayer—lovely shades of blue (soft and deep), old gold, terra cotta, wine, red, unusual greens, banana, ochre, strange greens and interesting shades of sapphire. Note the low collar on this dress. It is a becoming V-shaped one, that looks well on short necks. A triangu- lar cut-out, at the base, with a glimpse of vestee showing, makes a cunning detail. These cut-outs are seen on many of the new frocks. SERVICE TO HONOR FOUNDER OF G. U. 200th Anniversary of Birth of Archbishop Carroll to Be Marked January 8. Georgetown University will observe the 200th anniversary of the birth of its founder, Archbishop John Car- roll, with a pontifical mass January 8 at 10 am. in Dahlgren Chapel. Rev. Arthur A. O'Leary, S. J., act- ing president of the university, is making arrangements for the mass and announced yesterday that the apostolic delegate, Most Rev. Amleto Giovanni Cicognani, would preside. The observance is intended especially for the students and facuity members. wx;r'tc-chnncufi;:n"}lyof s af Am will deliver the sermon. The students’ choir of Georgetown College, under the direction of Dr. Edward P. Dono- van, will sing. Carroll was born near Upper Marlboro on January 8, 1735, and was a cousin of Charles Carroll of Carrollton. He was sent on a diplo- matic mission to Canada by George ‘Washington, his colleague on the mis- sion being Benjamin Franklin, In later years he was made the first Archbishop of Baltimore. Word has just reached Georgetown that Rev. Coleman Nevils, 8. J., presi- dent of the institution, is sailing from Southampton, England, on January 2. He is expected to return here in time for the Carroll anriversary. Mouth Organs Shipped.
