ies of satirical comments on the
social, educational, and intellectual
life of the campus in general; as it
was, it was simply a kind of organ
ized ficandul-monirerinsr. Satire is
the achievement of civilization and
sophistication; personal "cracks" are
a relic of a Ladies Aid society. Sa
tire is an expression of intelligent
criticism; opprobrius references to
particular persons aro the product of
a resentful or a lubncius mind, ine
University Night committee in its
selection of the skits, failed to be
cither sophisticated or intelligent.'
I have since learned how to spell
'opprobrious' and 'lubricous,' but my
ideas about the proper purpose of
University Night have not changed.
1 am inclined to agree, in the main,
with the sentiments expressed in your
paper yesterday by R. R. M. As to
one or two points, however, I feel
that she has not placed the responsi
bility precisely where it belongs.
R. R. M. declares that the commit
tee rejected two manuscripts of the
type of the prize-winning skit, add
ing hat they were 'incomparably
superior to the Corn Cobs' an J Dra
matic Club's sketches.' It would be
difficult, I admit, for ony one who
saw the performance to believe that
anything could be worse, but I can
not agree that they were incompar
ably superior.
By members of the committee I
i am informed that they rejected only
two skits that were complete enough
to be judged, and it is to these two,
I suppose, that R. R. M. refers. One
of them is of the sickeningly usual
King-Carl-and-Queen-Amanda sort:
merely to name it is condemnation
enough. The other, an ironical pre
sentation of a characteristic Classi
cal Club tea, is distinguished by a
subtlety of humor that would guar
antee its delighted reception by an
informed and sophisticated audience.
An informed and sophisticated
audience. Where could it be found?
At the Classical Club teas perhaps;
but certainly not in the Orpheum on
University Night. There it could
only have been what is technically
termed, I think, a 'flop.'
That is the root of the difficulty
the audience, the students. If they
wore intelligent, tney would, nave
written the proper kind of skits, and
then the responsibility for poor selec
tion could have been placed squarely
upon the heads of the committee,
but it is hardly fair-minded to blame
the Y. M. C. A. for their choice, for
I fancy they did the best they could
(poor devils!) under the circum
stances. If they had chosen to pre
sent the satire on the Classical Club,
R. R. M., you and I (and a handful
of others) would have enjoyed it
very much, but the rest of the audi
ence would have been more bored
than they were with the Corn Cobs'
sketch, and perhaps a little hurt at
our evident sunerioritv.
It is hardly considerate of us, myj

Ten Years Ago
Silver Serpents, the Junior wo
man's organization, was founded in
the year 1005 by a group of Juniors
assisted by Dr. Louise Pound and
a number of Seniors chosen as hon
orary members. It was the plan of
these women to become a committee
representing their clnss in school
activities and to bring about a un
ity of fellowship between the mem
bers of the class. This organization
continued successfully.
It was planned that the "N" men
of the University of Nebraska have
a week set apart in their honor.
Every "N" man had to appear on the
campus with his "N" in a conspicu
ous place and he could enter the
basketball games free of charge.
A muskrat was found in the stu
dent activities office and was adopt
ed by the geology department. This
was done in spite of the protests of
the zoology department which
thought the animal a fit subject for
dissection.
University Night was held at the
Oliver Theater. It was a success
from every point of view and the
sketches were on a higher plane than
those of previous years. The theater
was packed from pit to gallery with
a mob that obeyed the Chancellor's
request for judicious use of the muf

briefly.
A report from the chairman of the
publicity committee brought out that
a great deal of work had already been
done on this phase of Fair week.

feature this year's program, it was
said by the chairman.

cussed. He pointed out that Gand
hi was a successful lawyer, rich, high
position. But he gave his fortune for
a school and went to work as a day
laborer. He told both English and
Hindu that the government was not
satisfactory.
He told the Hindu people that they
could not progress in local govern
ment until they broke down the caste
system. He allied himself with the
lower classes and Mr. Isaac claimed
that he was successfully leading an
attack which is working for the
breaking down of the caste system.
Numerous other leaders were
pointed out as having abandoned
wealth and position to mingle with
the poor and work for a rejuvenated
India. "The new spirit," said Mr.
Isaac, "believes that we must get rid
of all hindrances to progress." He,
pointed out that Gandhi is training
great numbers of men, men not ex
pecting salaries but anxious to bet
ter conditions.
Spirit Is Changing
As an example of India's changing
spirit he pointed ou that a woman
was this year elected president of
their national Congress. In closing
an address in which numerous re
forms were advocated in order to ad
vance progress and bring unity to"
India, Mr. Isaac stated that she said
that her people must follow Christain
principles and teachings.
Gandhi's success was attributed by
Mr. Isaac to his being Christ-like.
Likewise,' he said that the greatest
hindrance to Christianity in India
were the white people who called
themselves Christians but who did
not follow Christ's principles.
"Practically every Hindu," he said,
"recognizes Christ ns the greatest
teacher the world has ever known.
All India is drawn by real Christian-
