The Pan-Hellenic Association of
Portland, meeting at the residence of
F. E. Beach, 63u Chapman street, yes
ierday unanimously indorsed the ruling
of the National Pan-Hellenic Assocla
tlon that members of secret high school
sororities must be barred from initla
tion into college sororities after today.
About 100 collece fraternity women
half of whom formerly have been
identified actively with high school
sororities, attended.
Every member of the association who
expressed an opinion during trie gen
eral discussion yesterday advocated the
enforcement of the ruling. The attmin
istration of the ruling, however, will
be in the hands of the sororities on
the campus at the University of Oregon
at Euarene. There are now seven .Na
tional sororities at the state univer
sity. Gamma Phi Beta, Kappa Alpha
Theta. Chi Omega, Delta Delta Delta,
Delta Gamma, Kappa Kappa Gamma
and Alpha Phi. Each of these sorori
ties has indorsed the ruling made by
the National body and will not be
allowed to Initiate any girl who retains
or accepts membership in a high school
secret sorority from this time for
ward.
Only Moral Support Possible.
"Bv the motion passed today we
vtledee our moral support and our de
mre to do everything possible to en
courage an enforcement of the ruling
but we are powerless to go any further
In the matter," said Miss Agnes Beach
president of the Portalnd Association
yesterday. "The .actual enforcement
of the law will have to be carried
out bv the active chapters at Eugene.
"The two oldest high school societies
in Portland, Omega Nu and Delta Iota
Chi. will not be affected by the ruling
because they have already taken steps
which legally make them non-secret.
but the members of the other two
sororities of National standing. Phi
Delta Sigma and Beta Kappa Tau, will
Jiave to resign immediately if they
wish to be eligible for membership In
any National college sorority.
"The members of the two latter or
ganizations have two alternatives. They
may depend for membership on those
who never intend to enter college or
may await the enactment of probable
corrective legislation at tneir next Na.
tlonal conclaves. In anticipation of
the college ruling the other two sororl
ties have changed their rituals so as
to make those orders' non-secret and
therefore outside the reach of the
.ruling. The members of Phi Delta
Sigma are now In communication with
Eastern chapters to ascertain what
step is advisable.
Ruling Approved Generally.
"College women as a rule are quite
decidedly in favor of the enactment of
the new rule. Almost without excep
tion women who have been affiliated
with college sororities agree that the
law which will bar members of secret
high school orders from college sorori
ties is a step In the right direction.
"There Is not the excuse for the
high school sorority that there is for
the college sorority, where housing
conditions must be set up. If it were
not for the existence of sorority housee
at our universities, the public would
be compelled to erect many dormitory
buildings to take .care of the women
students. They must take up college
residence, and the sorority group sys

ment are knitted together as if in on a

Belcian Rhododendrons May ISot
Last tTntll January 1 Blooms for
Thanksgiving Out New Chrys
anthemum Announced.
The association of flowers and the
war seems far fetched, yet It Is true,'
according to James Forbes, a Portland
I 'florist, who has helped supply the flow
er market in Portland for 2S years.
'It is much cheaper to Import various
plants and bulbs than to produce them
here." said Mr. Forbes, yesterday.
'Tulip and hyacinth bulbs come from
Holland, lilies-of-the-valley from Ger
many, and there is only enough of this
popular plant to last until January 1,
1916, azalias and rhododendrons come
from Belgium, so the supply may run
out, as we are unable to get any of
these plants, on account of the war.
Oregon rhododendron Is a beautiful I
out-door shrub, but will not do for a
potted plant.
Thanksgiving Blooms Are Early. '
"Owing to the mild weather which
has. prevailed, flowers are blooming
three weeks ahead of time. Thanksgiv
ing blooms have been ready for a week.
but fortunately, are of such a nature
that they will last until after Thanks
giving. Flowers never have been more
plentiful than they are at present.
The Harvard chrysanthemum is the
latest additibn to that variety of pop
ular flower. It Is rich crimson and
perfect in shape, and Is to be seen for
the first time, as It was Just produced
In Boston. The William Turner is larg
er this year than ever, and, being white.

will be no chrysanthemum show this
Fall, because the Portland Florists' So
ciety will give a show of Spring flow
ers at the Armory instead.
Klllarney Brilliant Is New Rose.
"American beauty roses are all Im
ported from California. They have a
great name, but we don't get the best
of them because the regular customers
in California get flrst choice, and our
orders are infrequent.
"New roses this year are the Killar-

rose, and the Ophelia, a shaded pink
and yellow rose. -Next in value com

Gorgeous, a cerise color, a new light

most conspicuous in booths and. deco

The lavender catellia is the most pop

It is impossible to produce enough
roses or carnations for Christmas dav
orders, to do so would mean to flood the
marKec at other times. Recently be
gonias, azalias and poinsettia plants
have taken the place of cut flowers In
the holiday season, when the demand
for cut flowers, cannot be met. The
short, dark days in December are not
conducive to prolific flower bearing.'

do not gain membership feel badly. This
situation creates an unwholesome
spirit"
In making its ruling at New York
the Pan-Hellenic held that high school
Kirls were not sufficiently mature to
become members of secret organiza.
tions which might lead them into Chan.
nels of snobbishness and extravagance.
Many join, it is held, without the
knowledge of their parents, who do not
favor the system because it is unnec
essary.
Younger Glrla Object.
The younger girls; as a rule, do not
look with favor upon the new rule,
but they are determined to make the
best of things.
"There are both advantages and dis
advantages to high school sororities,'
said miss iviarjorie Mcuollom, a mem
ber of the Phi Delto Sigma sorority,
last night. "Some say they make girls
too old for their age and nourish
cliques. Am a matter of fact, much good
may be gained through them. Bach
sorority is the means of creating many
valuable friendships and each sorority
Is now doing a great deal of charitable
work.
Miss McCollom - Intimated that th
members of her sorority were prepar
ing for the enforcement of the new
rule. When a girl is invited to Join
her order, she said, she is warned about
the rule. If she doesn't want to run
the danger of being prohibited from
college sororities she can refuse to join
the high school sorority. Girls who now
belong can become eligible for college
membership in case they resign im
mediately.
High school sororities are now a
thing of the past, anynow, and sines
the colleges have taken such a decided
stand against them I do not believe
any of the girls will feel badly." said

who is not a member of any sorority
