Housemother Since 1903, Mrs. Wilmot Enjoys Her Work for Pi Kappa Alpha
The fraternity as a group used to entertain more than it does now, Mrs. Wilmot points out. The parties they had were big occasions; they started at 9 o'clock and arrived unruly before fast, quite different from the 9 to 12 o'clock parties of today.
"Pierics without chaperons were unhearened of when I first became a housemother, but now the boys and girls grab a couple of blankets, some pillows, buy some food, and go off by them. My sister was born 21 years housemother of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. "I certainly don't approve of the change" she said.
"There was more school spirit during the first years I was a housemother," she asserts. "Of course the school has grown in size which makes it more difficult, but I can well remember the tugs-of-war held between the junior and sophomore classes. The spring political elections were taken more seriously, and real arguments arose over early party platforms.
Boys are much better prepared, in a social way, to come to school now than before the War, Mrs. Wilmot believes. "Why I can remember when I had boys who had to be told the proper clothes, what to wear and how to present the new majority of them know how to take care of themselves perfectly, and are equal to any social occasion."
Mrs. Wilmot believes that students do not take their studies as seriously as they once did. They used to know their professors better than they now; but she believes that the professors are partly to blame for this. Students now do more playing; they come to Mt. Oread young and unsettled. They seem to spend much of their time doing nothing. A trip to Kansas City use to be a big occasion; now it is an ordinary thing.
"I believe that there was more jealousy among the fraternities, and also more fights. I remember one time when a fraternity pulled up a tree that was planted in another Greek's yard, and the consequent long drawn-out arguing about whether the fraternities had regular fights over getting runners away from each other."
When the Pi K. A's and the Chi Omega's lived next to each other, they fought continually. One year the fraternity required its pledges to wash a dog belonging to a Chi Omega. The girl did not appreciate the deed. This started when she met someone named Some Pi K. A's found a cow walking down the campus and took it home with them. They tied it in their front yard. From time to time during the day, a brother would go out with a pail, milk the cow, and drink the warm milk. This aroused the jealouye of the sisters who also wished to meet some friends, some of whom they forgive the fraternity men, and the feud over the dog-washing came to an end.
Pledges have always been made to serve the acts. They do all the dirty work around the house, and the funny part is that they can tell you that they never murmur a complaint.
"One time the boys started having the pledges bring them their breakfast in bed, but I had to put a stop to that because it was too hard on the dishes. The freshmen have even been made to go wait tables in a sorority house, which is the cruelest punishment for a timid, shy, boy." Mrs.Wilson declares. "You're not a child, so you must individual girls while at the dining table. She made this rule to keep the fraternity from getting down on a girl just because one of the brothers announce in a loud voice at the table that she is "terrible." Mrs.Wilton found

Mrs. Wilmot became housemother for the fraternity when it received its charter 21 years ago this fall. In those years she has had charge of all kinds of boys, "and they are all just as sweet as they can be," she says. They take their troubles to her, knowing she will not suffer them; they confidences to herself. "Sometimes I feel as if I know these boys better than their own parents do," she says.
"I have found that one way to keep the boys happy is to give them plenty of food, have a well-balanced diet, and see that the tables are always attractive and neat. Even when I have to scold the boys sometimes, they are good sports about it and hold no harsh feeling against me."

Streamliner Starts Jan. 31
"I have more faith in humanity than I use to have," Mrs. Wilmot admits. "I know that even if some of these boys come up here, act 'smarty', and do things just because Brother Jones does they have good parents hind them. If you are graduated, they go out with the determination to do something. So far, my boys have not failed in my hopes for them." As Mrs. Wilmot talked one of "her boys" came in and asked for the key to his car. He leaves it with Mrs. Wilmot every morning so she can use it to do her shopping. This is just one of the ways they have of showing their love of what "Mother" Wilmot does for them.
Kansas to Have One of Few Regular High-Speed Train Services
