The tables presented a rare picture of beauty, the sorority colors, green and white, being followed out in the entire arrangement. Numerous toasts were delivered by representatives of the various chap ters. Among the many were the fol lowing : "Welcome." "Welcome," by Miss Marguerite Springs: "It is my pleasant duty to bid you, my sisters, 'Welcome.' Not only do I bid you welcome in my own name but in fair Charlotte's name. Its trees and flowers have on their gaiest dresses, and aid me in this welcome. Welcome then to our city, our home and hearts. The greatest of poets has said, 'Small cheer and great welcome makes a merry feast.' We have added 7good cheer to our great welcome. Welcome then to it and to that which our toast- "A Roman Spectacle" from the famous Ben Hur at The Royal. s - j OXFOE OXFORfei - ku mistress has provided 'The feast of reason and the flow of soul.' " To Mrs. Jackson. The following beautiful toast to Mrs. Stonewall Jackson, was by the representative of the Zeta chapter: "As a representative of Kappa Delta from the far south, I feel honored in being in the city where lives a woman very dear to the hearts of all southern ers and greatly admired by all patriot ic Americans. Of course you know I refer to Mary Anna Jackson, the wife of that knightly soldier, Gen. Stonewall Jackson. She is loved and cherished for her beautiful life and character and honored as the wife of one of the noblest of our immortal dead." Kappa Delta. This pretty toast well expresses the aim of Kappa Delta: "Kappa Delta; an inspiration to the schoolgirl as instilling in her, as a member of a school a sense of corpor ate obligations; as one of the band of friends, a high conception of friend ship; and as a woman, a high ideal of character, based on the desire for whatsoever is good and sweet and true."
