Supreme P. E. 0. Sisterhood Meets
In Omaha Middle of Next Month
MISS CLARA MASON, principal
of Park school and one of the
prominent Omaha P. E. 0.',
has prepared the following history of
the organization:
The P. E. 0. sisterhood is one
of the most picturesque and popular
secret organizations in the world. Its
organization was the result of roman
tic friendship among young c611ege
girls and its remarkable growth and
stability a an order i the wonder of
social organizers and is evidence that
the teven young women who, on one
lovely day In January, nearly fifty
year ago, founded the society wort
inspired by motives pot only of sister,
ly love, but of a still higher nature,
which insured the success and growth
of their new organisation,
. i.y place in the old music room of Iowa
January 21, 1870. Seven young women,
students in the college, were in the
last year of their school life. A
movement had been started among
the girl students to install a branch
society of another woman' organiza
tion within the college circles.
These seven young women had met
together to discuss ' the question of
whether thty had better break their
circle of sefen by part of them join
ing this ordei nossessinar eerfa
t which w6uld have to be kept from the
others of the seven who had not
been invkdd to join. Suddenly one of
i the girl, sweet of face and filled with
love for her companions, proposed
that as a memorial of their friendship
and at a means of holding themlv
; together they themselves form 'a se
cret society founded entirely updn
1 their ideal of friendship, love, hope,
humanity and philanthropy.
, There was a moment' silence then
S instant, acquiescence, afld, already
f drawn closer together by the new tie,
these seven original "pliades" of what
j was to become a nation-wide secret
. organization assented to the pr6poai
! tion of Hatty Briggs, and immediately
i Alice Bird, the clever and intellectual
i genius of the teven, was asked to
:j prepare a constitution far the order.
She consented and produced a code
yi rmc wnicn sum xorm tne oasis
for the society's government She
also formulated the oath which is still
used at initiation of member. At a
subsequent meeting of the seven
young wdmen Miss Bird read the con
stitution and oath which she had pre
pared, and they wire addpted. Then
one of the young women read the oath
to Miss Bird, thus initiating her the
first member, of the new order. Mis
Twenty-three years after the first
supreme convention was held here,
the P. E. O. sisterhood brings its na
tional convention back to Omaha Oc
tober 16-19. The session will be held
in the Scottish Rite cathedral, the
P. E. O.s being the first organization
outside of Masonry in Nebraska to be
granted the use of this edifice. The
Scottish Rite Woman' club will serve
luncheons and dinners. P. E. O.
headquarters wfill be established at
the Fontenelle hotel.
Delegates will be entertained in the
homes of members. There will be
375 delegates, but the number of vis
itors will swell the number to 500.
A Nebraska woman, Mrs. E. G.
Drake of Beatrice, is upreme presi
dent of this mystic sisterhood, found
ed by seven classmates in old Wes
leyan college at Mount Pleasant, la.,
nearly fifty year ago. Miss Martha
Winans of Los Angeles and Miss
Margaret Durward of Fort Collins,
Colo., are vie presidents; Mrs. L. C.
Abrams of Bellingharri, Wash-, and
Mr. L!a R. Weber of Waynoka,
OkL secretaries, and Mrs. Anna B.
Grimes (of Hutchinson, Kan., treas
urer. P. E. O. is a sisterhood, not a club
nor a sorority. The order, notwith-Q
standing its origin, is nonsectanan.
The flower is the marguerite, the
emblem the five-pointed star, so often
observed with curiosity and resptct
P. E. O. is the only national sister
hood independent of an ass6ciated
fraternity. It rests on neither a
money basis nor sectarian support
and is absolutely unprecedented in its
secret action. The educational fund Af
the order is remarkable. Each year
every chapter contributes to it This
entire fund is loaned to worthy girls
seeking an opportunity to complete
their education. A girl does not have

Bird in turn read the oath to the
other six, completing the original or
ganization. These seven charter mem
bers called their society "P. E. 0."
The letter are mystic. None save
the duly initiated and obligated mem
bers knows their meaning. Little did
these young women dream that their
small society would ever reach the.
bounds to which it has now spread.
Starting with the original seven, in
the beautiful old "Athens of Iowa"
thi order now prevades every part of
the United States and numbers "hun
dreds of chapters and thousands of
member. The growth of the Organiza
tion it due entirely to tlie spirit
which led to ltt conception and per.
meatet it rule and regulations. The
aim of the organization was for
something earnest and broad, some
thing more than a mere college fra
ternity. Their society stood to them
a a symbol of what was noble and
lovely and desirable in their life to
gether and their purpose was to pre
serve and, strengthen it V
As a fitting badge for their society
of high ideals they chose a golden
five pointed star with the letters "P.
E. 0." in black enamel across the face.
At the first meeting three hew mem
bers were voted in and the society
took to itself the name of Chapter A.
At intervals new chapters were
formed by delegates from the original
chapter and in 1883 a supreme chapter
wat formed consisting' of delegates
from local chapters and being invest
ed with .legislative and judicial power
over the subordinate chapters. .

.Women are being urged to enter
uib pudiic neaitn nursing profession
in order to release nurse already
trained for foreign service. Dr.
Franklin H. Martin of the advisory
commission of the Council of Na
tional Defense says:.
"The function of the nurse in mod
ern war i by. n6' means confined to
Surgical Work at the frnn T .
elude the highly important duty of
iuih hi tne prevention ot disease
epidemic, industrial accident and the
general preservation of public health
both here at home and in the terri
tory back of the firing line. Such ex
posed points as cantbnment zones and
newly built munition workers' towns
must be thoroughly protected. The
country cannot afford, furthermore,
to leave the civilian population with
out trained nurses, and most ot the
place left vacant by nurse who have
entered special wark work must be
filled in some way. ' ,
"Many women, who for vari6u rea
sons would not be available for tak
ing care of the wounded at the frdht
might be performing equalty valuable
ervice at home through aiding in the
work of disease prevention and the
spread of scientific knowledge. In
the national interest, furthermore, the
Red Cro has provided that public
health nurses of definite standing may
enroll for this service only nd be
exempted from other war service. In
assigning to duty , the nurse on its
enrollment list it is giving much study
to the question for what field Of serv
ice their training and aptitude best fit
them."

West Omaha Mothers club ' will
hold its first meeting of the year Fri
day at 2:30 o'clock at the home of
Mrs. Blaine Truesdell, 5114 Capitol
avenue. The program, which fur
nishes the keynote for the year's
work, will include a talk on good citi
zenship by Mrs. R. E. . Winkleman;
reading articles from the constitution
of the United States pertaining to leg
islative department and giving its his
tory, Mr. C. D. Hutchinson; talk on
social waste, Mrs. J. A. Hamilton; in
strumental music, Mrs. P. F. Bonor
den, and patriotic songs .by club mem
bers. Recently a friend left to Helen
Keller $500 to be used to aid the sight
less in the way the blind poet and
author judged best. Miss Keller for
warded the money to the American-British-French-Belgian
Permanent
Blind Relief War fund, 590 Fifth ave
nue, New York, with the stipulation
that it shall be devoted to one blinded
and maimed soldier.
"I think it is a godd idea to help in
dividuals directly to be a sort of big
brother or big sister to them. The
plan should meet with a liberal re
sponse. The personal touch that will
go with the aid will multiply its value
tenfold. Training and instruction of
these blinded men is very important"
he wrote.
Miss Irma Gross, who conducts the
domestic science department of The
Bee. will talk on "The Basis of Con
servation" at an open meeting of the
Benson Women' club, Thursday at
2:30 o'clock at the Benson city hall.
