* ie in 1903 The advancement of philanthropy. both nationally and in the horn ’ communities of the sorority, is the primary purpose of the organization. Almost a quarter <»f a century ago the Delta Theta Tau community school at Brinkley. Ky.. was established. A certificate of achievement from the I'nited States navy was awarded Delta Theta Tau for rnerl- ; torlous and outstanding services rendered to the medical department during World War II Th* sorority established an artificial limb department in the C. S. naval hospital at Mare Island, Calif Other similar servi es were conducted at three army hospitals. The soroL*/‘s greatest service, however, is in the Immediate communities of the various chapter*. Omieron chapter has philanthro *v as its main project for the year. Th*> annual drive for the ‘‘good fellows club" will be started on November 1, Mrs Kenneth Arnold, president, thought It advisable to begin earlier t 'is year, due to the tr mi-ndous response of the general public last year. Th* club had Its origin’ back in 1918. Last year the local chapter served 72 famille.i • heir Christmas dinners, and 54 families received clothing and toys for th*-ir children in additon 'o their dinn- r* Tlie sororty is governed by a national coun il and board of trustee*.
