THE HOUSE MOTHER
A nem institution, the house mothel , has p adu
qlb milked its so ay into many national fraternities
tr roughout the country, and has taken a strong foot
hold II ,evplal colleges during the last three yeare
lion a movement for the instigation of the house
mother was in its infancy in 1029, a report from the
Liter fraternity conference defined such a matt on as "a
social mentor for a fr eternity chapter who would help
in the admin,tration of its house and do such moll,
about the house as the user age soother of the mem
ber, Would do about the home"
Although advantages of the house mother are plain
.1 , , far as =prom.= the moral tone of fraternities, a
single fault in the ststem rany sweep a,ide every factor
in its faoor All the advantages are dependent entirely
on nipper selectmen A great deal of care must neces
sarily lie taken before choosing a woman to take up a
position mithin the walls of the modern fraternity
Now and then it may he posOile to secure the
IllviecN of n capable house mother at a nominal saint
but under ouhnoly co cumstances it would be e • tramely
diffietilt to obtain a woman of education and bleeding at
p cost within the range of the aver age fratm nay And
,ertainls no (dim type of N,Olllllll o mild be definable
for position width would r equite tact and expert
matingement. Many fraternities ore operating at a
dose finoncial min gin and the additional es.pense of a
housemother ought coon become n Widen.
A common objection to the house mother is that
the presence of a matron in a fraternity would tend to
cull) the nottnal expo ession of students who others,,e
wouldunbuiden then minds in an unrestrained marmot.
Where the "house motheting" system has been in effect
it hits been commonly agreed that members of a fin
tunny hose often concealed grudges out of (lament°
t, the house mother.
Proper conduct mithin a fraternity should be a
ploblem to be corked out by the individual members.
The piesence of a house mother might noise the motel
tone of a group, but only inn supeifitinl and shallow
manner.

In an attempt to solve the problem
of hou to be a popular co-ed, women
students have divided thempolves in
to two distinct schools, according to a
survey conducted Inst week.
With the exponents of pe'rsonality
ranged against those nibs believe in
being "yes-girls" and attentive listen

snaring the male quarry are radically

The personality advocates i define
that elusive something. as Arcing a
distinctive type, specifying it either
as cultivated, pseudo, at natural.
Those oho kno, and get results add
that the type must he vitalized and
that the co-ed must hie her type,
cork at it twenty-foot boons a clay
and seven days a sneak ,
While conceding that the personal
ity adherents outshine ' individual
mtensity, then opponents maintain
that they automatically ',ethice the
possible numbei of dates:- Basing
their theory on the shrinking violet
complex, the second moue, with ad
lint psychology, is fin mly convinced
that all men will talk when firoperly
