To the New Initiates

IF


If you can wear the Pi Phi arrow
And not forget there are kites and keys,
If you can show your love and not be narrow
Rememb'ring that there are other things than these,
If you can laugh and dance for pleasure
Rememb'ring when the needs arise
Your arrow asks of you unstinting measure
Of sacrifice and love for all Pi Phis.

If you can dance and yet remember ever
The finer things for which your arrow stands,
A character and womanhood that never
By unclean word or deed soils lips and hands,
If Pi Phi love is always thus abiding
Yet for the lonesome girl you have a smile,
Why then I'll know 'neath your arrow's hiding
A heart that holds all lovely things worthwhile.
