Fun DG Facts!
Hey ladies! I recently purchased a 1945 copy of the Anchora, and recieved it yesterday! I thought I would share some fun facts from it with ya'll!!
*One single copy of the Anchora cost $0.50
*A one year subscription cost $1.50 (this must have been before a lifetime subscription fee was included in the new member fees)
*Per capita dues for alumnae were $1.50 a year
*To renew your Anchora subscription as an alumna cost $1.00 a year
*If you were initiated before 1922, a lifetime subscription cost $15.00
*A list of the NPC sororities and pictures of their badges are on one of the pages. In 1945, the NPC consisted of: AXO, ADPi, AGD, AOII, Alpha Phi, AZD, Beta Sigma Omicron, XO, Tri-Delta, DG, DZ, GPB, Theta, KD, Kappa, Phi Mu, Phi Omega Pi, Pi Phi, SK, Theta Upsilon and ZTA
*Because of World War 2, convention was not held in 1944. Since a copy of DG history was usually given out at convention, the issue I bought was a copy of the Anchora that was really a history of DG. It was done that way because paper was restricted during the war, and since paper had already be alloted for the Anchora, this copy of the history was published that way.
I'm so glad this Anchora found it's way into my hands! It's in good condition, and it will sit proudly next to my song book from 1942!
LITB!
