E.f That question i being asked by many Sr.lem citizens since tho an-, nouncement was made that the Oregon Grand Chapter, P. E. O., is ging to hold its seventh annual meeting in this eity next Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday, and that delegates will be here frcm all parts of the ate. . What do the letters, P. K, O. etanij for, anyway! Some people innUt that they stand for "Pigs Eat Onions." but the mem bers of the society only smile and look wise when such guesses are made. The P. E, O. is an organization ex clusively for women, and regardless of that fact they have kepiho seecret as to what the initial letters mean. The P. E. O. Sisterhood is the lari'ent secret organization of women indoxmdent of an organization of men in the aaiion. The first chapter was organized in 1869 by a group of college girls who were students in the Iowa Wesleyan uuuego mi. rieuMtui, i-owa. 1 neir friendship for each othei was peculiar-1 ly close and as the .time for graduation grew near, a plan for a eeerct society to make the tie still closer, was sug gested. It met with immediate favor and thus informally, with tho enthus iasm of youth, this siNterhood came into being. . As stated by members of the society, the object and aims of P. E. O. are growth and improvumieiit urnong its meii),lM'rs in all things mental, moral and spiritual. As one line of the society's activities, an educational fund has been provided and is being used to aid worthy girfs through college. Alice Bird, who later became Mrs. Babb, was tho first president of the first chapter cf the sisterhood, and in giving an account of the founding of the society she eays: ''The surface reason for our existence is, that wven of us colbigo girls had been together for three or four years, in 'study and in society, and we found the tic a stronir one. iiiiusiinllv so. As our tastes ran in the fame direction, Meanwhile 23 per cent of the miner our natures woro congenial, and when1'11 tlio southwest- district of Kansas, the problem of separation confronted M issouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas ami us, we fdt that something uiuxt mark Texas aro laying off. The output in the era of our friendship some token might strengthen the bond, and re veal to others what a lovely friendship ours dad been. It is impossible for any of us to day to -state definitely who suggested the form'iig of a secret Mciety, but tho proposition was made, and hastily made, tiat we identical iieven be the j nucleus of a sisterhood. Of course, at mat line we nine urcaineu 01 ine great oulcomo, and yet we were in earnest, and even then desired some thing broad and substantial. We did not for one moment wish it to be a mere coliige fraternity, we wished a society of more lasting name and repu tation." When the State Grand Chapter of Colorado of (he I. E. ). wfm organized. Miss Virginia Corbetf, the president, spoke of the sisterhood M follows: "P. K. O. is not merely h liteiary club. It. is this, but, mure. It is not simply an agency for organized ckar ity. tliowh many can r-pciik with grati tude of such work aecon.;-"'inhed by our order it is more than thai -it is a sisterhoofi, and that term can only be fully iindi rstood by those who can look back to life with sister in finer family.
