a.) Dixie Terminal Building (located on various floors since Mary Love Collins moved the office higher as rent on the lower floors was raised!)
b.) 2245 Grandin Road (was both home for Mary Love as well as an office for Chi Omega)
c.) 3300 Carew Tower (tallest building on the Cincinnati skyline)
d.) 3111 Carew Tower
e.) None of the above

No, XOAlumXO...sorry, 3300 Carew Tower was one of our Cincinnati addresses. Guess again?

No, not d either. Come on, you all know how much I love the "none of the above" or "all of the above" answer. It's e.

Yeah, Cincinnati was a wonderful "home" for Chi Omega for many years. The Grandin Road property was especially lovely (a beautiful home overlooking the Ohio River), but had to be sold after Mary Love's death, since it was a private residence and not zoned for business.

But every time you come up with a new question, I think "I bet this time she's trying to get us and it's not all/none of the above"!!!

What were the favors given to each delegate at the following National Conventions: 1904 in St. Louis, 1906 in Washington, D.C. and 1908 in Chicago?

a.) cut crystal boxes in which to store your badge
b.) hat pins
c.) T-shirts with the Convention logo
d.) tote bags full of programming handouts

Thinking about the decade in which the conventions were held, I'm going to go with D, but I'm not 100% sure (hat pins sounds good too)!

Most of the time it's good to go with your first instinct; however, not this time! Sorry, it's not D.

[xo_kathy]

What would they hve printed the programming on at that time?! At least that's what made me not think it was D (not that they didn't hve paper, but I'd think production costs would be to great).

I'm going with B - hat pins (cuz it was my gut instinct and Amy's second !)

xo_kathy wins! YippppeeeeChiO! Good work.

Yeah, tote bags are more current -- 1980s - now.

[Hootie]

I guessed D because I figured Chi Omega was still VERY new and maybe the programing information was useful for recruitment on new members. And I thought the tote bags would have been fairly simple - nothing like they are now. Oh well

Aww Hootie, don't be sad -- it was a good guess.
