Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Phi Beta Kappa: The Beta of Illinois Chapter Historical Sketch and List of Members In 1909 the Beta of Illinois Chapter published a Handbook of seventy-two pages, containing a historical sketch of the fraternity and of the chapter, the Constitution and Laws of Phi Beta Kappa, and a list of members. The present edition has been completely revised. An entirely new historical sketch has been prepared and much additional matter of importance regarding the chapter has been included. The lists showing higher degrees and books published relate to members elected as undergraduates. Although every effort has been made through circularization, personal correspondence, the consultation of the alumni lists and other records of the University, the examination of the list of teachers in the Chicago Public Schools and the use of the Chicago Telephone Directory, quite a number of addresses remain undetermined as the Handbook goes to press. While these inaccuracies are greatly regretted there seems no way to avoid them without delaying the publication of the much needed volume. The cuts of the Phi Beta Kappa Key which are used, were presented to the chapter by John F. Newman, the long-established fraternity jeweler at 11 John St., New York City. This firm is prepared to furnish keys of the standard type at satisfactory prices. The material for the historical sketch of the fraternity has been taken from the following publications, to which credit is now given: William C. Lane: "Phi Beta Kappa, Harvard Chapter," 1912. Oscar M. Voorhees: "The Phi Beta Kappa, Past and Present," Phi Beta Kappa Publications, New Series, No. 7. "Original records of the Phi Beta Kappa Society and other material relating to the Society:" William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Vol. 4, No. 4, April, 1896. Pages 213-263.
