Tuesday, Wednesday
Just a hunk of life, as is, that is
the best way to describe "Love's
Greatest Mistake," at the Lincoln the
first half. This picturization of the
Liberty Magazine story might well
have been called "why traveling men
travel," but it wasn't. The story is
about a country v"steno" going to
New York to see her sister and make
a fortune. On the train she catches
the fancy of a millionaire, who offers
to show her the sights. She arrives
and finds her sister in another man's
arms; the sister's husband was a
traveling man. The millionaire shows
the country belle all the sights of the
wicked city, including some night
clubs, then writes some passionate
letters and goes to Europe. In the
meantime a band of blackmailers
have been . watching the 'affair ard
"r-"ut up" the young lady in order to
F x the letters. The tabloids fea
' t ? story and the boy from
home comes to the rescue, only he
doesn't rescue. But after all, the
story ends happily for all concerned.
Anklet Preferred
Poor girls working up in life, seem
to be a popular theme on movie row
this week for "Ankles Preferred,"
takes a young shop girl up to better
things. Miss Bellamy starts as a wage
earner in a metropolitan store and
soon rises rapidly to better, things
with Goldberg and McGuire, pro
prietors of a fashionable modiste
shop, and then faces the defeat and
humiliation when she is given the
position of entertainer of out-of-town
buyers.
Allan Forrest, as a shareholder in
the firm is making life unbearable for
Norah when her friend and protector,
Barney steps in and attempts to ad
just matters. This complicates things
and results in misunderstanding and
ends in a bitter fight for Norah's af
fections. She wins happiness in the
end, but is made to realize the peace
of mind is won only as a result of
earnest labor along legitimate lines.

Tbe Old Soak
Pierre Watkin in making his first
bow to Lincoln theater goers this
week. With him are several new
members of the Pierre Watkin PlajN
ers, who will also be introduced to
Lyric patrons.
"The Old Soak." is Don Mrnnia
famous American play and gives
them all a very good vehicle to shine
in. Mr. Watkin stands out in the role
of Clem Hawley, the lovable old
toper. The New York notices on his
performances last summer were verv
good "An unparalled performance of
this lovable old rapscallion."
The play itself takes a hokelv lo
cale and no small part of the comedy
is furnished by a certain bootlegger
named "Al." The phrase "Al's here."
I will probably be as much of a by word
as "so's your old man," for it tends
to convulse the audiences at the
Lyric, when that worthy is announ
ced and he comes often to the Haw
ley residence.
The new players, who will be reg
ular members of the comDanv are
Alice Holcomb. Booth Hnwnrri
Frances Gregg and William Amsdell.
who is the new director.
A Little Journey
The producers are ever seekiner
something new. "A Little Journey,"
at the Rialto the first half is an ex
periment by Metro-Goldwyn, and not
a bad attempt, at that. A common
story, was made by a big director,
Robert Z. Leonard, with Claire Wind
sor, William Haines and Harry Carey
in the leads.
A young girl finds that she and her
aunt are left penniless, so she must
marry. A rich man proposes, but she
refuse, another poor suitor pro
poses, and she sends him to her aunt,
who frowns on a penniless marriage.
So she decides to marry the first
wealthy man. On her way to the
train, she meets a young man who
infatuates her, only she won't show
it, so he forces his attention, dictates
telegrams to big butter an' egg men
and all sorts of four-flushing meth
ods. Claire Windsor and William
Haines do more real cave man love
making in 300 miles than Elinor Glyn
had her characters do in ,'Three
Weeks." But the little journey ends
the way everyone wants it to, and
then some.
Old Love and New
"Old Loves and New," with Lewis
Stone is the Colonial's offering the
first half. Lew Stone as a desert shiek
is a wow. He is an Englishman,
known to the Arabs as the desert
healer. His wife runs off with another
man, and he hides his grief in this
manner. His wife is turned down by
this new love and wanders. The heart
breaker takes his latest fancy to the
desert and she is captured by the
Arabs. The desert Healer does his
stuff, but is not recognized. The man
ner in which he secures his revenge
involves a war elephant and the hand
of nature.
Billy House is back again, at the
Liberty the first half. This big com
edian is always a ton of fun and his
skit this year is no exception. Chrissie
and Daley are a team of eccentric en
tertainers. Jolly and Wild do song
and patter. And so do Hilton and
Chesleigh. While the Yodeling Trou
badors do their stuff in a fashion that
will make Swiss cheese crawl out of
the show case. Marion Gibney is in
impersonations, you won't recognize
her, at first, but she's the same old
Marion.
OHIYERSITY NIGHT
DISAPPOINTS FACULTY
(Continued from Page One.)
versity forbade its future publication
and suspended the fraternity.
Since then University Night has
been gradually declining. Of late
years there has been more and more
emphasis on some of the more objec
tionable features of student life
which finally culminated in the per
formance Monday night.
Faculty Interest Declines
In former years University Night
was well attended by faculty mem
bers. Up until this year there was al
ways an advance sale of tickets to
professors and instructors, who used
to enjoy witnessing the show because
there were often many witty takeoffs
on them. In the last two or three
years faculty interest has died down
until Monday there were only six or
seven present This is ascribed to the
deletion of faculty references in the
various skits. This year only two fac
ulty members were mentioned.
If the Committee on Student Or
ganizations should decide to abolish
University Night, the Y. M. C. A. will
lose a large slice of its yearly income.
The shows have made anywhere from
six hundred to a thousand dollars
each year, all of which went into the
Y. M. C. A. treasury.

Botany Department Offers Attractive
Summer Courses in Rocky, Mountains
Nw Ideas Brought to Lincoln
Only a big organization, like Hart,
Schaffner & Marx, can scout the
world for ideas, stylist, and eminent
authority on what to wear, and when
to wear it, has just completed a sur
vey of all the big colleges of the
United States, securing valuable data
for Hart, Schaffner & Marx. This
wealth of valuable information has
been used in the modeling, styling
and pattern weaving of the. clothes
Hart, Schaffner & Marx are making
for us for Fall.
That the College men of the Uni
versity of NebrasLa may be first to
see the new models, Mr. Ben Wolfe,
personal representative of Hart,
Schaffner & Marx, will be at our Col
lege Room Wednesday '& Thursday.
Mr. Wolf & his assistants want

The Botany Department has ar
ranged to continue the course in the
Rocky Mountains during the first
term of the 1927 summer session.
The enthusiastic response of the
course and the success of the class
work in the mountains last year amp
ly justify its continuation. The work
this year will begin in Estes"Park,
Colorado, on June 7, and will con
tinue for the regular summer school
period, closing -July 13.
The work in the mountains is under
the personal direction of Professor
Raymond J. Pool, chairman of the
department of botany. Dr. Pool has
conducted these classes for several
summers and is thoroughly familiar
with the conditions and materials
available for such work.
Are Valuable to Teachers
The courses given are of particular
value to teachers of botany, biology,
and nature study in the public schools
and colleges, as well as to college stu
dents who wish to supplement their
training and broaden their acquain
tance with the field.
The course will be general and will
utilize the wonderful varieties of
natural sceneries of the surroundings
to present to the student a broad
view of modern biology with par
ticular reference to flowering plants,
forests, etc. It is necessary to limit
the registration to thirty, because it
is impossible to accomodate any larg
er group under these conditions.
Advanced Course Offered
There will be an advanced course
offered to anyone with considerable
training in plant taxonomy or ecol
ogy, and who will be able to work in
dependently or with minimum guid
ance. The limit in this course is ten.
The camp this year will held at
Camp Olympus in Estes Park. The
managers have graciously placed
their accommodations and equipment
at the disposal of the class during the
period.
Camp Olympus is Attractive
Camp Olympus is not a camp in the
common sense of an unattractive
group of dingy tents huddled togeth
er in an unkempt and out-of-the-way
mountain place. The camp is, in fact,
a group of new attractive and com
fortably equipped buildings which
occupy one of the finest of all the
magnificent sites of the Rocky Moun
tain National Park region. The camp
faces the beautiful Thompson mea
dows, across from which is a full,
broadside view of majestic Long's
peak end the cnov.y summits of the
Continental Divide.
The Lodge, a fine, three-story
building is the center of camp activ
ities. This new building with its large
fire-places and spacious two-storied
veiauJa is the general uieeti.ig place
of the Camp. It also affords ample
sleeping and dining facilities. Several
cottages are scattered about which
provide class rooms and additional
quarters.
Dedicated to Teachers
Camp Olympus is dedicated to the
health and happiness of teachers and
students. It furnishes an ideal place
for the teacher or student who de
sires wholesome recreation, rest, and
study in a home-like atmosphere and
under inspiring natural surroundings.
Early reservation is necessary for
those who are planning to register
for the mountain courses because of
the limited accommodations. Reserva
tions will be filed in order of their
receipt and those received after the
maximum limits of courses have been
reached will be returned promptly. It
is desired that all reservations be In
by May 15 in order that the final
plans for the classes may be matured
on a definite basis.
Method of Registration
Those who wish to take the general
course will register for Botany 13c,
and those who wish the advanced
course will register for Botany 201c.
Course 13c will give six semester
hours credit to all who complete the
course. Time and credit in course
201c must be arranged with the in
structor. -
Reservations for either course must
he accompanied by $13.00, the reg
ular fee for each course. This fee
will be forwarded to the Unhrersity
Extension Division, payable to the
Finance Secretary of the University,
at the time registration is completed.
The formal completion of registra
tion may be arranged at Lincoln on
June 3 to 6, or after arrival at Camp
Olympus.

last chance to hear Nebraska's inter
collegiate debaters here this season.
LINDSAY SPEAKS
HERE THURSDAY
(Continued from Page One.)
Mr. Lindsay may not be able to re
main over Friday in Lincoln. The
unexpected illness of Mr. Lindsay has
deprived Lincoln of a longer visit and
several addresses. Unless he has
pressing engagements to fill Friday
on his extended lecture tour, Mr.
Lindsay probably can be persuaded
to lengthen his short stay here.
Is Making Tour of United State
Mr. Lindsay is making this lecture
tour of the United States under the
auspices of the League for Industrial
Democracy with headquarters at
New York City. He has been ob
tained for lectures in Lincoln through
the efforts of the University Y. W.
and Y. M. C. A. associations and the
Federation of Church Workers.
He is visiting a number of the
prominent universities and colleges
of the United States while on this
tour. This is to be his second visit
at the University of Nebraska, having
been here in the-interests of the
Workers' Educational Bureau follow
ing a visit to America in 1922-23
with the Oxford Union Debating
Team. He is a World War veteran
and has been a student of Oxford
University.
