Bruce, on Docomher 22nd, at the aprc of 63, Phi Gamma Delta older, but most earnest members. suffered the loss cf one cf her A link in the chain of the old Xi Deuteion Chapter in Hudson, Ohio. Brother Bruce brought to Cleveland a deep loyalty for the fraternity. It carried him through the early days of the Xi Deuteron-Building Association, when the chapter house fund was count ed in hundreds of dollars, and when dreams of a new home at Re.serve were cautiously expressed only on Thanksgiving at the Annual Smoker. His loyalty continucil to his death, and his dream of a home for Xi Deuteron was realized before he passed beyond. As president-treasurer of the Bruce and West Manufacturing Com pany, he was engaged for years in the manufafture of bakers and confcctionera' supplies. Active in church work, he was a vestry-man at St. Paul's Episcopal Church. During the war he aided in food administration as applied to bakeries. Truly, Phi Gamma Delta has suffered a great loss, and Cleveland Fijis unite in extending their sympathy to the members of Bi'olher Bruce's family. IN THE lO' o CLASS The man lhat earns on his money is doing well, but if your firm paid you only 107r of your salary, you'd QUIT. Delta is in the last class. Phi (jamma Ten percent of its alumiii membership, or 1591, are subscribers to the Phi Gamma Delta Magazine. In spite of "Scoop" Wilkinson's splendid editorial ability, Fijis do not support the magazine. The fault is not with the magazine, because other fraternities, with much infe'ior publications, give better support. That sickly 107c! Think it over! When a.sked to subscribe, dig out two dollars, rcmemlerijig how you'd feel if your boss should say, "I can only give you \0*'/c of your pay this week." TUESDAY NOONS-C. A.

Remember—College Club—Jan. 14th. 73rd EKKLESIA REPORT Fiji.s owned Birmingham for four warm, sunny days, Dec. 28th to 31st. Even a huge Christmas tree, atop a hilly street in the heart of the city, bore a large white star, illuminated at night. With true southern hospitality, the Alabama boys cared for the slightest wants of the delegates and visitors, and the social events were splendidly handled. Every chapter and section had its spon sor—a Southern Beauty- and feminine beauty was present by the hundreds at the great ball on the 30th. "A land of sunshine and moonshine," rema»*kod one of the dele gates. But there were busire.'^s sessions and many items are of vital interc.st to Cleveland Fijis. By action of the Ekklesia, the Colonization Plan for Expansion was adopted, which provides that petitioning .societies and clubs s-. bmit their petitions to the Chief of their section. Then their work is done. The National Fraternity will then investigate, and if re ports are favorable. Phi Gamma Delta will say, "We think you should have a charter." The hca^'y expense of continuous petitioning is removed and bids are really extended as in the case of ri shoes. "The Beavers" of Oregon Agricultural College were granted a charter. O. A. C. is not actually an agricultural college and the misleading name has for years reacted unfavorbly to the petition ing Beavers. "The Bachelors' Club" of Davidson College of North Cai'olina was denied a charter, by a narrow margin. Those who voted against it feeling that the school itself was not of the proper caliber—as yet, though the men of the club are excellent Phi Gam material. George Snyder of Washington.
